Can You Beat YuGiOh Forbidden Memories With A Spellcaster Deck?

[@perkocetts]

I'm watching someone play a 25 year old game that came out before the TCG even existed and still can't escape Snake Eyes...

[@Jon_Oh]

I'm glad i dropped the tcg 😅

[@619Slipk]

Omnipresence

[@ave_maria323]

Same tbf

[@Earthboundmike]

Uh. Pretty sure this released at the end of 1999 and the TCG came out feb 1999. Keep in mind japanese and american release dates are different.

[@perkocetts]

@@Earthboundmike that's why I said the TCG wasn't released yet. This was released in Japan right after the OCG started in 1999. Technically, YGOFM released in US in the same month that the TCG was introduced, but I'm not going to get that pedantic about it.

[@BabyWolf-qj3sp]

When ever i see a "can you beat x by/with x" and often time im just like yes...yes you can, but with jon oh forbiden memories, its how big of a pain it is, not if he can, we all know he can

[@gelato101]

15:40 Fun fact, despite not being reprinted, Necrolancer was officially renamed to “Necrolancer the Time-lord” so that it wouldn’t be related to the Timelords

I'm literally working till 3:00 in the morning at defcon cleaning restrooms and I get to listen to this wonderful video the whole time. Thank you buddy. These videos are presents to all of us. And that intro for the story was the best thing ever I had to stop working and watch that

[@haileymill2649]

“You’re the top half on the loaf of bread. Everyone touches you, but nobody wants you.” IS DIABOLICAL 😭

[@VenomG69]

Always love your creative storytelling you come up with for these runs. I've decided I want to see a Reptile deck next.

[@Jon_Oh]

+1 to Reptiles :) good to see you back!

[@kiracaroso]

Spellcasters? Oh this is absolutely my jam. Some of the most powerful cards since the game started to this very day with some of the strongest support, searchers, and archetypes. But we also have some of the weakest and worst cards to deal with. This is going to be great. Rock, Exodia and defense only, and thunder is going to be something when you get to them. Especially Thunder since it has never been that good outside of archetypes, but especially stat wise in the early life if this series.

[@lloydbagby8355]

Thanks to thunder dragon you have easy twin head

[@TanukiTracks]

Didn't expect the Fantasy Maiden Wars reference at the end, but it brought a smile to my face. A great video as always!

[@Zyco178]

That intro was amazing. I love how you create your own stories for each run.

[@Vinikida]

Well, I'm a Brazilian who studies Japanese language so I'll try to translate the card on 16:28 Name: Juggler Lethal move: Magic tricks Pulls out doves and attacks with it. Kyoto Master in illusionism and tricks of invisibility. I wonder if I will pull doves out of my hat? I did the best that I could!

[@Jon_Oh]

Better than me! thank you!

[@mask9306]

Challenge suggestion: You MUST use the cards you get at the end of a duel. You can grind duels for a specific card but you still have to use the cards you get if you don't get the one you want. If you run out of space, you must remove a starting deck card. Anywho number two, another great video.

[@Jon_Oh]

love that idea, been suggested a few times. WIll eventually get to that one after the other types are done

[@meganmartin3373]

I don't know how you keep topping your story mode ideas, but I'm sure as heck not complaining.

[@GAMMAGOMA]

I have a theory about why you get Mystical Elf from Simon. Since they are both blue, this means they are of the same humanoid species. This means she is either his daughter, sister, or wife. It's also likely that she's his signature monster, like how Dark Magician is to Yugi.

[@gonzoivanovich938]

22:14 Fun fact - in recent years there was one more retrain - elemental grace doriado

[@thenerdbeast7375]

Something so satisfying watching Dark Magician take out BEWD in that animation.

[@derrickbartledoo2680]

Dark Elf, the card that becomes a literal rockstar wizard covered in enchanted pendants while memorizing three tomes simultaneously because it can basically buff itself with half your deck capacity. Or run it in fossil matches with Life Absorbing Machine and Ra to make a nightmare.

[@Jon_Oh]

Wishing you luck! Double down on MBD or skull knight they're your win conditions

@@Jon_Oh I'll probably grind for a 3rd MBD and get a second memory card to abuse obtaining equips. I won't lie I spent 3 days just trying to get one MBD since I can't speed up on a regular PS2. Very fun game to be honest, though S-Tec by deck out is infuriating. I wish you luck on any future runs

[@franco_lv]

​@@neonthunder3261 hey! I recommend you try A-tec since it has the same drop rate as S-tec. You can find some info in KZbin about fast A tec and believe me it is quicker than S-tec ( but not much as pow) . Also yo can try Pow/tec BCD on Isis for dragon tresaure. Sadly megamorph is a S/A tec. Also you can try S-pow on Jono 1st or s tec in jono 2nd for kunai with chain that is compatible with Skull Knight.

[@neonthunder3261]

@@franco_lv I've been trying S-Tec on Jono 1st since I know Salamandra can equip to MBD. He fuses often so he's much less of a problem, but what's different in the A tec method compared to S?

[@franco_lv]

@@neonthunder3261 I didn't know that salamander can be equipped with the MBD! Gonna try it. Stec and Atec have the same random drop rate, you can get megamorph by S or A tec from pegasus. The main differences is that Atec depends more on you that in the opponent and can be quicker than S-tec. There are certain conditions you have to meet in order to obtain that rank, for example: you need to use 4 pure magic ( raigeki, Black Hole, field cards like umi), activate a trap card, 15 or more fusions, less than 7000 life points, play a face down card, four effective attacks(destroy a monster in atack position and inflict damage points) and the cards used by you hace to be 37 or more. There is a fbm wikia for more details and there are alternative conditions. Also you can get pow/tec BCD when you only meet some of these conditions, and this is okay for certain opponents like Isis ( dragon treasure / Wide spread destruction), Kaiba( sword of dark destruction compatible with Skull Knight) and mage soldier (dark energy). Good luck!
