[@lesibalto1016]

That first duel was straight up out of anime

[@destiiny01]

I'm the one who ran the time thief combo deck. A bunch of cards in the main raidraptor combo were banned due to other archtypes so I had to improvise the combo. The combo basically required any 3 level 4s on the field which the time thieves facilitated really well.

[@cthefro]

I got to be honest the fact that nekroz hasn't been banned is insane.

[@dandomen3584]

because nekroz might have been a tier 0 deck on release , but it is horribly powercrept by now. it is VERY weak to disruptions , even just 1 can screw you so much you end up in a mediocre board

[@Hempujonsito]

Cuz they cheeks

[@Csthh]

It’s because djinn is banned

[@matthewhaffner4416]

From experience dueling Nekroz in the LCS and testing, Nekroz hard bricks and basically hopes they can set up a normal summon of a Vanity’s

[@thanatosxmesiah]

maybe because the deck was expensive so not many people bother to make it for this event too

[@Slenderman3222]

Farfa really showed my most embarrassing dream mirror replay just because it was the best darklord replay 😂

[@Slenderman3222]

Now the world will never know that Dream mirror assault mode existed

[@prinnyking4926]

Tell md about Dream mirror? Did you blow up your own Cross sheep because you the didn't read targetting protection on the "The First Darklord".

[@Slenderman3222]

@@prinnyking4926 yep

[@realWannabeMVP]

I'm sorry I destroyed you like that😂 Your deck was pretty cool though, GG's

[@Slenderman3222]

​@@realWannabeMVP no worries. Going 7-0 was good enough for me

[@lonk2902]

Kozmo getting second really does prove the meta is fixed any meta where Kozmo is good is a good meta in my eyes

[@Carlet_S]

actually unironically playing Skybase with Towers legal is the funniest thing I've ever seen in YGO

[@EnergyBurst2]

I mean I always run one since you never know when you'd rather have a Steal you get to choose over a pop that you don't.

[@jeffreytam7684]

What I appreciate about this tournament series is that Farfa made the correct decision to banish stuff other than archetypal cards so that *everything* in the format got progressively weaker. Obviously some stuff was banned later than it probably should have, but I’m glad we’re not having games getting decided by Talents right now

[@FAI_CW]

Would be really nice if the duelists didn't immediately spoil the results of the duels in chat as soon as their replay starts.

[@Rexafrek]

Game actually looking fixed, i enjoyed watching every single one of these duels lmao, so much back and forth gameplay

[@Gravekeeper5890]

This is the most fun I've seen in yugioh in the last 6 years

[@redsquirrel9961]

MR5 Qli v Spellbook was the coolest duel ever, makes me wonder how many good matchups are just lost to time and the huge cardpool

[@cawrhy]

The token switcheroo deck was HILARIOUS

[@marioalberto5320]

After all this bans, this has become duel links meta

[@hiimemily]

Santa Claws getting banned is legit hilarious.

[@mattbaltimore7195]

Golden Homunculus aka "Gren Maju at home" is something i've never expected showing up in this one....😂😂😂

[@realpatriot1769]

This era is my favorite. You still get great combos but the games don't end as quickly on average.

[@MarioLopez-xs3vc]

I tried Spellbook Magistus once for a Legend Anthology event, the problem is I am TERRIBLE with Magistus plays. And might have also been missing one of the two XYZs.

[@saraakthefgomaster7694]

I topped with World Chalice, but not in the video. Big oof but the featured replays were generally better than mine.

[@brankoaime]

We are entering LukeVonKarma sub replay territory with this duels here

[@SYMgenshin]

Castel and 101 really brings me the nostalgia of Rank 4 Toolbox back then

[@four-en-tee]

Damn, it only took 10 episodes for Skull Servant to get on the list

[@LilBabaG]

Considering the monsters on the field, does this mean Kozmos won that last game?

[@brwahussen]

These games are fun. This is true YuGiOh.

[@esseubo441]

It's almost like if you cut off most of the powercreeping staple fat the game starts to have some uniqueness

[@EnergyBurst2]

You have no idea how happy I am to see Skybase see play AND be the reason for winning a game, it was the first ever Qli card I ever both saw and owned and I thought it looked super cool back then and sounded ridiculously strong since all the cards I had at that time were pre-Synchro era, I got it in one of those packs of like 30 cards you could get at stores like Meijer or Walmart that just had a bunch of unassorted cards with a guaranteed holo in them.

[@LaserAgentRyan]

Bro this is just cards mashed together at this point and yet they still seem better than some meta decks

[@eavyeavy2864]

You literally only see 2 decks like that here

[@dq7860]

If this keeps on going, we'll be back to Summoned Skull Beatdown.

[@USELESSDCK]

Summoned Skull beatdown would unironically beat some of the dcks people play on the lower levels

[@MarioLopez-xs3vc]

Summoned Skull will probably be banned as part of an archetype before it gets to that point. But there is a chance.

[@devinbannish1469]

@@MarioLopez-xs3vc Probably not, but I guess there's a chance? Archfiend isn't really a coherent deck. So probably not.

[@KixMusaid]

Bruh that switcheroo💀

[@andreavitale7240]

Finally my beloved Time Thieves (with Linkmail Archfiend, which I actually knew and used) and Darklords get their time to shine

[@Uexo910]

can't believe glad beast finally made it

Why wavering eye banned: first game Centipede Token best duel 18:21 Homubculus How is Darklord didn't top last week?? Infernity?

Never thought I'd see the fire king loop again. Holy moly!

[@MBisonFute]

Only 20 more weeks until Normal Summon Breaker and for Ally of Justice to become the last archetype :)

[@maskofthedragon]

I can't wait till we get to the part where people start needing to play monsters that are worse than vanillas

Chainsaw insect beatdown

[@kennethM]

15:56 it stops a pop.

[@madjester9844]

The games are now actually slowing down, there's much more back and forth. The fixing is being done

[@KiiroSagi]

These games were very entertaining to watch!

[@thestylemage2092]

17:25 He KNEW which one was the imperial custom...

[@J3Puffin]

Why did all of these duels look so good tho

[@lennartstockl5826]

I have never seen vaylants so I don't understand what the hell happened in that last turn. (20:50)

[@moitavo]

Gran Duke can be summoned by tributing a level 5 UP vayliant card in extra zone colunm And returns 1 backrow monster to hand and inflict damage equals atk monster

[@lennartstockl5826]

@@moitavo That is the most normal action that happened that turn tho.

[@Dunker401]

I cant wait for every archetype to be banned and the only thing remaining are just complete incoherent piles for the last episode.

[@AdHocWholius]

Why the hell did that Spellbook player run D Fissure? Basically destroyed his ability to close out the game since Zoroa gets to SS other Spellcasters from grave if he's equipped

[@ungulatemanalpha]

we saw - whether due to a programming oversight or an oddity with dimensional fissure - that the equipped Magistus monsters get sent to the GY if they're equip spells on the field. DiFi is a strong enough card that it makes sense to run if you're relying on spellbooks that will go to the GY for a lot of your plays.

[@saskara6641]

​@@ungulatemanalphayeah butttttttt,, you still need spellcaster in gy, no matter how good is dimfis is... and the things that make me confused, if the spellbook player has level monster in gy, he can just ss it with life then use knowledge to send life that equip and draw 2 its better than just send life from hand for knowledge

[@maurizioamoruso142]

The first duel and the bujon ones were just perfect

[@Attondel]

after i saw the bujin deck i wanted to build one myself. but then i saw how ungodly expensive that deck is on master duel. why does a deck this irrelevant has so many UR and SRs ? i guess i wont build it :(

[@ArunaUtd]

6:00 literally King of The Island MD event matchup 😭😭😭

[@Moony28]

Farfa accidentally made yugioh great again! Those matches were fun to watch. Many back and forth. Hopefully konami watches this

[@cj-vp9rf]

I really love Yu Gi Oh, but recently picking up Pokemon TCG Live and god damn, it feels nice to play YOUR TURN when it's YOUR TURN.

[@devinbannish1469]

No interaction is kinda boring tbh.

[@Xero-rr2ol]

nah. interaction is good. yugioh has too much. being able to play on the other guy turn is too much. tear and lab for example do too much. they shouldnt be going full combo before their turn.@@devinbannish1469

Next year we should start the series with all the generic cards that got banned in this season being banned from the begging then go from there I think that would improve the early episodes

[@goldfishgallant]

Can't believe Cubics arent here yet...........

[@iloveyandex4862]

So, theoritically, if someone creates a discord for rotating formats, would you play them on DB? I have a following idea for rotation. First we need to separate sets into 3 categories:Core, Side, Premium. Core sets are 9 card packs, Side sets are smaller packs, Premium sets are bigger packs, products like Duel Devastator and structure decks. Distinctions like this are essential in assigning power level to the cards. Now for the formats: 1)Core standard - 8 last core sets. 2)Side standard - side sets released within core standard. 3)Mix standard - Core standard and Side standard. 4)Premium - Mix standard with premium products. Obviously, we will need to estabilish our own abnlist, to prevent tier 0 format.

[@fishontheinternetz3641]

MBT beat you to the idea. Months ago.

[@iloveyandex4862]

@@fishontheinternetz3641 It is not available for players, who don't watch MBT, my idea is transferable to LGS environment, if it takes off, meaning it can potentially ease entry point for new players. Not to diss MBT's idea, but his format is aimed towards veterans only, whilst mine can be applied to new players, since it easier for them to grasp basic idea.

[@fishontheinternetz3641]

@@iloveyandex4862 No what are you talking about. MBT's Rotation format is available to anyone joining the discord he specifically made for the project. And he said several times the card pool is meant to exclude yugioh's most convoluted mechanics like improper summonings from the Extra Deck (like tri brigade) and targeting versus non-targeting.

[@iloveyandex4862]

@@fishontheinternetz3641 I meant, how do you explain how it works to a new player. "Uh, there is a discord server, where they post what cards are legal". My formats are "Just look at the release date, if it's within 2 years, you probably can play it" P.S.: Once again, I'm not trying to diss MBT, I know that his format is better balanced than mine, but it doesn't mean anything to a new player, if they need to go to some discord to even know how to play it.
