I wish Yugioh remained as a war of attrition rather than combo heavy. Yugioh DM and GX era was the best.

[@Feast_965]

Penguin soldier used to fuck up your whole attack. Returning those 2 big monsters you wasted so much to summon

[@goncaloferreira6429]

one of my favourites

[@GrapeCheckerBoard]

Or returning one of those big monsters and itself, so it could avoid destruction and stay around to use its effect again.

[@joe88john]

I miss these days. I played during them, and it was fun! Much slower and simpler effects. Glad to see you show the deck now.

[@c97x]

the states are the same. the equation is 3x3. youre just seeing 3 + 3 + 3, and it looks like it has more steps, but its really just the same thing.

[@scourgemeltface]

​@@c97xno its not. Especially for new players. And if you're going to apply that logic apply it to turn time as well. No one wants to sit around for 5+ minutes for one of their opponent's turns.

[@HaydenX]

It goes earlier than this...hybrid flip + beatdown was a pretty standard deck in 2002-2004. People ran so many Magician of Faith and other tiny set monsters, that I won multiple tournaments in 2003 dealing the finishing blow with...Mad Sword Beast...yes really.

[@richardpe5446]

I love how you describes gx era. Real yugioh players remember when the game wasn't solitaire for two. I can hear it in your voice, you miss it too. 🍻 cheers to our Fallen monster. Rip magician of faith.

[@darkestdiabolosandraidhunt1308]

Now your Just saying "Go ahead and kill me I don't have anything" If you Set pass

[@TheTrueLeafless]

Or you play Krawlers

[@pokemongamemasterHD]

TheTrueLeafless that table 500 flip deck?

[@TheTrueLeafless]

Table 500 is a bit harsh...before CYHO it had an immense problem with consistency as a pure build but the new support brought it way above it

[@pokemongamemasterHD]

its still got the same old problem that any flip deck has, its a flip deck. I wish it the best of luck but I suppose table 250-300 is more accurate.

[@isamuddin1]

Soo can absolute acid can counter this deck?

[@edwardahn3045]

Dude you are such a legend and a scholar. Thanks for bringing me back to my golden age of yugioh. This era felt the most like duelist kingdom to me Building decks around just straight up good cards. I miss this simple yet competitive time in yugioh. And how you explain it brings me straight there so thanks again

[@Hawaii_Foxx-0]

Flip effect monsters were the shiz-nit

[@jamesdorsey5503]

I legit started playing when the original anime came to the US. I played for a few years and stopped around 2004. God this makes me feel old. When I played back then you were dumb if you didn’t play flip effect monsters or have a good amount of trap cards. I don’t know any of the cards are these days. I have no clue what synchro monsters are.

[@goncaloferreira6429]

flip summoning and trap cards: 2 pillars of the game that are now mostly forgoten

[@GatorRay]

I would LOVE to hear that other flip effect story from the GX era.

[@royalsoldierofdrangleic4577]

Yeee, old format stuff, i adore it I like a lot that era in wich breaker the magical warrior was limited, but they had pot of greed, charity and heavy storm

[@supercanadian0640]

I don't know what this _set_ thing is, aren't facedown cards reserved for traps and spells? Does it have something to do with that number monsters have on the bottom right for some reason?

[@animeknight99]

Face Down Ass First - dpYGO

[@gersubdenis6724]

Hm? Setting traps? Arent traps those things you activate in your hand on your opponents turn?

[@aliastheabnormal]

They used to go on the table.

[@deletedTestimony]

I played in GX era and this thread makes me nauseous

[@KnakuanaRka]

Gersub Denis That’s a hand trap. A normal trap is set face down like a spell, then you can flip it up and activate it when your opponent does a specific action (Mirror Force is a classic; when your opponent attacks with a monster, all their Attack Position monsters go poof). Yugioh has recently seen a rise in effects informally called “hand traps”, which activate in response to an opponent’s action like traps, but do so in your hand.

[@ketherga]

It's a real shame the game no longer rewards strategic play.

[@kooksaroon]

Chaos Sorcerer will always be one of my favorite cards

[@josipkamber4027]

Few things though: 1. Return wasn't the only reason people went all in during that format.Comeback mechanichs available were few and far between so if you lost the board,you weren't getting it back. 2. Adrian Madaj was the one who launched the recruiter build into relevance placing second at euros. 3. Towards the end of the format,Stein replaced Return in most builds due to the fact it was searchable through sangan/last will and it didn't require set-up like Return 4. Reaper was actually more important than any other flip effect monster during that era because often times it would be a straight up +1 Ah,the days when I'd t1 do a t-set and my opponent would go cyber dragon+reaper+ nobleman effectively ruining my entire saturday

[@ownd9000LOL]

Please do the yugioh story, these are easily my favorite part of the channel.

[@emildokle261]

I actually played this during school days with my friends and boy was it fun . I find it very nostalgic how these decks always bring me great memories , this and old Monarchs

[@Peaches51492]

yes bro! the like yugioh story videos that you do are seriously some of my favorites. keep em comin

[@flochforster88]

Definitely go for that next Flip story, these history videos are fantastic :D

[@ExistentHope]

True to say the golden age of yugioh

[@tatsuhirosatou5513]

This was truly the best time in the game.

[@vanguardtrainer924]

I always love Caps Yugioh stories, I started at the tail end of the zexal era and didn’t get to experience a lot of these events.

[@yugiohserbia7158]

Those were days..

[@krownvekta09]

This was the peak of when I played for the most part. At least up until the set with Hydrogeddon came out. My favorite Flip Effect monster in Yugioh to this day is Des Koala because so many people hated on me for playing it in decks that were not burn. I loved that card and would use it in all my decks. Most of which were made of what I had because I was poor. Koala would usually net me 1200 to 1600 damage and was my favorite first turn play with a Sakuretsu Armor for back up. Then you turn around and either Tsukuyomi it back down or you sacrificed it for a Monarch in my case (I couldn't afford Thestalos or Zaborgs so I played Mobius and Granmargs main deck lol). I always played Magic Cylinder too and loved to get people with that. I think I saw someone once on the internet call something similar to this gameplan Black Burn and I kind of went with it. I saw it as more of an aggressive burn deck than the normal stallish burn decks that people were running at the time.

[@kodytiffany5686]

I Love revisting my past through your retelling.

[@TotallyNotJustCynical]

I miss being able to use my nobleman of crossout. That card was OP as fuck back in the day now I see super rares for not even a dollar in card shops

[@nophiontrollbringer661]

What is a Lifepoint? And why is it bad to half them?

[@GroxXx777]

These kinds of videos are your best, great work!

[@beezneez9851]

I need prt 2 of this. I quit around the GX era and never heard stories like these

[@ScarecrowJames]

I really liked the GX era. There were much more innovation in Yugioh for deck building. Now decks come mostly pre built with arch types. There are differences between decks today just no where on the level it was back then.

[@EnvoyofDarkness]

Your Yu-gi-oh history lesson videos are fantastic. Keep it up

[@NextazxzNoExuse]

I dont play yugioh for about 8 years anymore, but rescently started watching some of theese youtubers and damn... I want to play game again because some of my greatest memories comes from this game, however when I hear youtubers or comments say that certain cards that used to be insanely good in the past ar no longer viable breaks my heart. When I left yugioh was already becoming soliter, and now turn with all the searches probably takes forver.... I dug out my oldschool collection and thought my little brother how to play so at least I can play some legacy yugioh at home ... :P

[@PendBestDeck151]

What about other flips that were prominent in the game at other times?? Like geargias or ryko who was used widely for many years. Usually in tandem with super nimble mega hamster during the synchro format days. And lets not forget Shaddolls. Who reigned during the arc v era. Contending with all kinds of decks and who's cards are still being revered as decent, many even wanting their super ace, Construct, to come back to the game. I enjoyed the history lesson. Reminding me of the days i would follow along to the competitive happenings in the beckett yugioh collector magazines and proxying their decks, before i even knew what proxying meant. I hope you continue the story, as there is much more that could be said...

[@ButterclawEnthusiast]

I LOVE me some yugioh stories

[@horonoringo]

All the stories please. Enjoy hearing about things again back when I played a lot more.

[@kish45]

I am waiting for when Knightmares get their rise and fall story.

[@DCComicsAndSomeOtherThings]

They won't fall for quite a while

[@magicguy1988]

You're gonna be waiting for a long time, my friend.

[@kish45]

[@hpblast]

So what's that other flip deck that you mentioned in your video, Cap? I wanna see it!

[@shadowcloud6841]

I love these history type videos.

[@MAZZ0Murder]

last time my friends and I did some online Yu-gi-oh tournament *someone* whined about the possibility of someone using Six Samurai (ME), so I tried creating a deck based around flip effect monsters... lost all my matches, but didn't make it easy for them (as this was the Syncho era, who had time for counter flip effects?!) especially if you sent a complicated summon back to their hand... but I never knew of this strategy.

[@domafox]

Do a story based on the Dragon Rulers legacy

[@marce3893]

Reminder that Chaos Sorcerer can't target face-down monsters

[@TheTrueLeafless]

Subterror, Tindangle and Krawler at least show, that Konami try to keep us flipping. Krawlers are even a sensible deck with the CYHO support (and Subterrors would be, if we would get Guru)

[@deedee4651]

When Emon Ghaneian dominated. You should do a video on him. Only really OG’s know who he is

[@lui4129]

He was a cheater though

[@babyhitman93]

[@KageNoTenshi]

Stein otk got me to my first nationals

[@arcboltgaming6870]

To fix flip effect monsters is to make a new rule in where all flip effects are considered quick effects so that you can activate them as soon as it's your opponent's turn.

[@kiren3168]

George De Jesus i always thought about that. More like a true trap monster. Would be so cool

[@hari2185]

Too bad Konami doesn't like innovation.....

[@tyronechickin1180]

Call it a Quick Flip

[@alexgarciafantauzzi5031]

There would be sooo many crazy good effects off of that. Possible for Shaddoll to suddenly jump tiers to be relevant.

[@alexgarciafantauzzi5031]

It also would be appropriate to consider, as there is a floodgate card specifically that negates Flip Monsters entirely

[@lith2757]

i love the GX era

[@livedandletdie]

I saw my fave card in this video. Oh lovely limited Night Assailant.

[@seanakima50515e]

We can set monsters???? Wtf

[@annedrieck7316]

Face down defense position!

[@Mf1productions]

Scenario: I have 2 monsters in Atk position and my opponent has 1 set face down monster. I attack with my first monster; the set card was Man Eater Bug; can it’s effect be used to destroy my second monster that would have attacked or would MEB’s effect not activate until after the battle phase?

[@ThisDudeCrisis]

Man eater bug's effect activates as soon as it's flipped up so your 2nd monster would be destroyed after the 1st 1 attacked it.

[@Danxv33]

Tbh fiber jar can come back flips are so power crept lol

[@TheOlJohnson]

I used to do Skull Lair into Dimension Fusion.

[@MajesticVampireking]

I wanna know what the other flip deck is and I'm really hoping it's PACMAN. I miss playing the OG antimeta

[@kenofjustice212]

Hey, Cap. I was wondering if you would consider covering the Summer of 2014. It was one of my favorite time periods in the game's history.

[@GenesicShinZyraelKai]

Best original content from Cap :)

[@kylelindgren5290]

Kap G please upload a video about flip effect monsters ruling The Meta!

[@dakyth8160]

Cap can you do a vido on when morphing jar#2 broke the meta. I was using that card during Dino rabbit. It was great it shut down wind ups like a boss. I played it at the Milwaukee Regional. I miss that deck it was so fun to play and the judges watched all my matches because it was funny to watch me play the deck. I used so many card people forgot about. So every time I turned a card over I would say what dose this card d0. That was the best deck I ever made that was not meta. I placed 81 out of 200 not bad for a scub.

[@jacobcrumpton4643]

I am a firm believer that with the right build, chaos will always be a viable rouge strategy.

[@kenshiroorjotarowithawhite829]

BLS and Sorcerer would probably be the only cards from that era that will find their way in a modern build.

[@jacobcrumpton4643]

The era the cards are from don't matter. A Chaos deck is a deck centered around any of the chaos monsters, with a basis in Light and Dark attributes. Since return and dimension fusion are banned, I ran Necroface in my build, alongside Desires for an easy 2200 monster, with potential for more.

[@kenshiroorjotarowithawhite829]

One can run whatever fits him/her and that is completely fine with me. However, there are optimal and suboptimal builds. A lot of those classic cards didn't age very well and even BLS was pretty much powercrept. I would rather run the Chaos Dragon variant.

[@jacobcrumpton4643]

I did say with the right build. Chaos dragons is technically a chaos build.

[@kenshiroorjotarowithawhite829]

I really thought you were saying that a 2005 Chaos build would be viable.
