I personally love HEROes and Six Samurai, but for me, growing up, my favorite season was GX of the anime and when I went back to finally finish watching the series, I decided to look up some of the cards for it and that led me to finding out about the Masked HEROes which I immediately fell in love with because I am a massive fan of Kamen Rider which Masked HEROes are based on, so for me, that was actually what got me back into the game. The same can be said for Super Quantum. I also just find the decks fun with the idea of having this squad of what are basically superheroes as my fighting force. I even put a kaiju in my Super Quantum deck just so I could finish a duel with my megazord taking down a giant monster. In regards to Six Samurai, for me it comes from a show I watched growing up called Ronin Warriors. I loved this show as a kid and again, it's a lot due to the idea of having kind of card versions of these characters that I loved as a kid or even now as my deck.

GOAT is a solved format. How can a solved format require more skill than un unsolved, ever changing one? GOAT is fun. Nostalgic as the word makes clear, are OLDER players. Older players always think they are more skilled and try to hold on to the past. Before December '16 ,I had last played Yu-Gi-Oh in '05. I am only now starting to grasp the game in its current state and I can understand why GOAT players are holding on to the format and trying to justify not making the effort to learn something new with "more skilful". The flip side is that anyone that denies that KoMONEY has been power-creeping the hell out of the game to sell more cards is a complete ignoramus. GOAT is more skilful is equivalent to "there are only 151 Pokemon".

Yes! Glad that you brought up the Yugi and Kaiba thing. I think that also ties with the opinion people have of missing "old Yu Gi Oh." To me, it feels like Konami is trying really really hard to bank on nostalgia... But it really doesn't work all that well when they do it all the time. Here's the thing, if you want to bank on the nostalgia of a specific point in your series, be it a game, an anime, whatever, you have to allow for time to pass before you start banking on it. You can't just flood the market with six or seven goddamn variants of Blue Eyes and Dark Magician that you're releasing every other week. There's the problem. I feel like Konami isn't confident enough to LET GO of classic YGO when moving forward. If you sit down and look at the releases of structure decks, tins, collections, and whatnot, Yugi has made a very regular act of presence. I think that they should really just push the new stuff. It's ok to have a blast from the past but for crying out loud, Konami, don't just bombard us with it. Give people time to actually GET nostalgic about it and yearn for the "good ol' days" before you release a product that is meant to bank on such nostalgia. You know, there used to be a time, years ago before I went on hiatus, when I thought "man, sure would be nice if Blue Eyes or DM got more support!" and boyyyy did they. It's almost bloated at this point. I know I'm personally passing on those latest Mega Tins cause I already have like five or six different Yugi/Kaiba decks.

In regards to #1, I think the Legendary Decks are fine. The most recent one still had Yugi, but, also Zane and Yuya, and it’s probably the best way to get all the Legendary Dragon stuff. With that said, they could do something different like put Marik and Bakura on their products. Those two always seem to be on people’s best YGO antagonists lists, so I’d wager that products featuring them would sell.

I'm not sure if this is unpopular/controversial, but I see people talking about banning gofu and level eater cause they are really good for links. I disagree with this. Not many people even play these cards in decks, and therefore I do not think they should be banned. Gofu is basically a link 3 monster. However, do make a link 3 you need to run 2 link spiders.

As a hand-shuffler, you are 100% correct! I saw some other players do it, thought it looked cool, and then practiced it to emulate the action. I honestly didn’t realize it portrayed myself, to other players, as pompous. I really just thought it was a fun fidget maneuver. And in the case that my opponent is running discard tech, I don’t want them to keep track of what I’ve added to my hand, via search. I too, fan-out my GY, but I only do that to check. If an opponent does it too much, take advantage of it; they’re clearly trying to set up something, but are missing pieces of their combo.

At my locals we were discussing what could really come off the banlist yesterday: We came to the conclusion to that for the most part apart from the obvious (Pot of greed etc) and some exceptions I'm not bothered to list, most cards from the last few years could either come off completely or could come back to one due to either powercreep or links puts them in check. The list really is a bit of a mess and needs to be cleaned up.

Bottomless wouldn't work, Solemn Judgement even at 3 would just burn yor LP's for a sacky burn card for game, imagine integrating EXODIA consistent shenainigans to TER lock, imagine having mostly beaters the deal with all that.....sounds like fun right XD. That being said I'm personally more nostalgic for 5D'S ERA Formats, the synchros felt like an universal not really overwhelming version of GladBeasts shenainignas with the correct measure of powercreep, the days when Skill did mostly matter whatever you were using, the days when Vanity was at 3 cause it was supossely sucky and it was all you needed to play slower decks.... the days when ALL kinds of decks from the first 3 gen were mostly able to compite and make a fair run of anyone's money at all events, the days when the only really powerfull synchro based dack was Infernity and even then it had 2 big weaknesses - hand advantage and graveyard shenainigans -...... the days when CardGamesOnMotorcycles were actually awesome to watch .... - and now, my soul is at peace.... -

About that rapid hand shuffling part and so on, here is my opinion. I just recently transitioned from online to paper mtg and I just enjoy the tactile nature. Little things like having a personal system how I organize my board, tapping cards, and the sound cards make when you place them are what make the game for me. So if I saw someone ask cards in hand or fan graveyards for no reason, I'd just attribute it to them immersing themselves in the card game.

Not to justify the hate, but I think people hate burn and stall and alternate win condition decks because sometimes it's just not possible to beat them and it gives you a loss knowing that that person who beat you isn't going to top.

However, they are not unstoppable. That being said, if you get caught slippin, I don't feel bad for you. I mean, you can't possibly side for every possible deck you may encounter. But decisions were made. Either you did not perceive these decks as a threat, which is on you for underestimating your opponent; or you didn't know that these alt decks were out here, which is also on you because it's the 21st century and google is your friend. Lol Either way, decisions were made and we have to live with our choices, and move on. Or not. It's whatever. This is your world, I just live in it. Lol To be clear, and in the interest of full disclosure...I am a back up burn player (I also play Six Sams😜, but mainly D/D/D right now). Just putting my two cents out there. And when I say "you", I mean that in a general sense. This was not directed at anyone in particular or anything.

I have two reasons for shuffling my hand constantly. 1 is when I'm bored, like when my opponent is taking a really long turn. 2, is because I quite often go against decks that have effects that force me to discard, so I shuffle my hand a lot in hopes that my opponent won't discard one of my good cards with effects of cards like Toon Gemini Elf.

Weighing in on the random hand shuffle/cards in hand opinion, I think some players are also Magic: the Gathering players, and most MtG players do that due to there being more cards in that game that allow a player to look at/discard from the other player's hand, and the shuffling is done in MtG to keep your opponent from knowing where a particular card is in the fan of cards a player is holding/know which cards were drawn after you played your Thoughtsieze/Duress/Inquisition of Kozilek/et cetera. The "cards in hand" question mainly comes from discard/control players, who have to give that sort of thing a lot more thought than your average combo or aggro player. Not that everyone is doing it because they are a convert, but that seems to be a possible reason (to me, anyway) for players to have gotten into that habit. Also, thanks for sharing your opinions. Not everyone may agree with them, but isn't that supposed to be what America is all about? EDIT: I agree that there are too many Yugi/Kaiba products, but I wouldn't kill the Legendary Decks entirely. They just need to use more characters. Honestly, the fact that Legendary Dragon Decks didn't have a Signer-themed deck was, to me, criminal IMHO. That said, some of the characters you named were underused in their respective series that it would be tough to use them as the faces of the franchise. I'd love to have an official playmat with Alexis or Leo and Luna, but they just weren't used as much as they could have been. Sad, but true.

In regards to hand shuffling, Magic has a card in a joke set that addresses. Called "STOP THAT!" it does as follows: "Target player discards a card.

While I'm open to Stratos coming back, I'm somewhat in favor of it staying banned partially because I don't want it to lead to Shadow Mist getting limited. E HEROs have 3 Shadow Mist, 3 A HERO Lives, 3 E - Emergency Call, and 1 RoTA. I don't think they even need Stratos. On top of that, I'm paranoid that if Stratos comes back in the TCG, they'll hit Shadow Mist in order for it to look more like the OCG list. I play the Fusion variant of Destiny HEROs. Because of combos my deck does that relies in Shadow Mist (Discarding with Fusion Recycling Plant/Dangerous, sending her to the GY with Vyon, etc.), *I'd rather have 3 Shadow Mist and 0 Stratos than 1 Mist and 1-2 Stratos.* Also I do kind of agree that HEROs are a bit overrated. D-HEROs are the only HEROs I like, and the Fusion build is the only build (besides old-school stall) I like of _them_

you ask cards in hand when you are trying to determine the strength of your opponent's counterattack on their next turn, to see if the risk of making a big play is worth it. 0 to 2 means you'll probably be fine. 3 to 4 means there is a risk there and it's up to your judgment as a player to decide if it's worth it. and 5 and up means you'll more than likely lose if you overcommit and it doesn't go as planned. Keep in mind to always add 1 card to your opponent's hand when making this judgment to take into account their next draw for turn. As for heroes, the reason I like them is that their an underdog deck, When you play heroes you never feel like you have an inherent advantage. Just the opposite, every duel feels like this uphill battles where the odds are stacked against you(and usually they are) which makes the victory at the end all the sweeter. So if the monsters aren't OP, their mechanics aren't OP, and their support is underwhelming(even if plentiful) What wins the games? it's the player...

I agree on most counts, but would like to add my take on a couple of them : 1) Although the ban lists are decently done, there is an underlying motive to shift product behind them. This is linked (excuse the pun) to the power crept tier 0 archetypes that Konami keep making each set. 2) Players ask benign questions during their opponents turn in order to engineer a misplay or miss-timing. 3) My own unpopular opinion is that something similar to a chess clock is introduced, as people with tier 1 decks umm and arr over the combos that they know off my heart that take 20 minutes to complete in their first turn. I know you can call slow play, etc, etc, but a physical clock would definitively prove unfair hogging of time.

Of course we would ban Staples that are OP by today's standards but we also ban cards that would be considered "too viable" or "too popular" that wouldn't have otherwise been banned (such as, Blue eyes, summoned skull, upstart, mirror force, scapegoat, call of the haunted, etc.)

I don't know if you've actually ever played the old or classic game, going off some of the opinions you've expressed it might have been before your time, but the game is in no way shape form or fashion more "interactive" now. Hand traps existed in cards like Kuriboh, which was a staple for competitive play, and gravekeeper's watcher and nothing about Kaijus are original; lava golem has been around for a while. The concept of "helmet decks" may have changed your opinion on what a good card is but i think people who are expressing the displeasure of Konami's ban list are feeling the negative effects of 'create new broken deck ban it 6 months later' money grab formula being implemented that in your video you say we should just accept since its "always" been like that. the thing is it hasn't, and while some of the fanfare you see for the goat format is nostalgia this era was the last before Konami realized they could milk their player base for money buy reprinting and destroying the value of what at the time were collector's items. I can rant for hours on this but almost all of your points bleed into each other but being a newer player you can't see the forest from the trees. there's a reason every year Konami is reprinting cards and featuring characters from that boring way less skillful era of yugioh that just doesn't stop making them money. i don't wholeheartedly disagree with all your opinions but i think you might not be observing the issues with the right amount of empathy. my own opinions Goat format was the best, terms like helmet or gimmick deck didn't exist; ALL cards were fair game Broken cards shouldn't be created to be banned after I've wasted my money on them since it was the only way to play competitively All cards should at least be at 1. If a card is so powerful the only way to balance the whole game is to ban it it should have never been created

For cards in hand it shows if op has more, less, or no options if they held up mana. Can also show if op has enough cards to combo. And for fanning graveyard it can be a graveyard strategy, or could just be knowing how many of each card is left in your deck as what out you could draw or plan around.

Pot of Greed can go to 1. People say it is broken, but omg all it does is draw 2 cards. Look at Pantheism, that was at 3 at one point which was far more busted than Pot of Greed. 2. Zoodiac is a bad engine to splash, the boards it makes are easy to break. It is best playing it as a "pure" build. 3. You can be a good player and still not top events or even go to events. Just cause a person tops an event doesn't mean they know what they are talking about. They may had just gotten lucky through the whole event, or cheated. (Especially with people topping multiple times consecutively) 4. Stop using broken for anything that is "powerful" if you use the term "broken" easily then you obviously don't know what broken is.

my 5 unpopular yugioh opinions as someone who stopped playing in his teens: 5. the power creep is too strong in this game 4. banlists should be decided by the community, not by the creators of the game (I'm not saying a single person or a small handful of people, but the entire competitive community, similar to how tier lists are decided in smash or how certain mons are banned in competitive pokemon) 3. I know its unpreventable with the internet and whatnot, but I don't think metadecks should be a thing since they ruin the fun of the game. I remember back in the day I had so much fun just sitting on my couch for like 2 hours looking through my cards to come up with combos, deck synergies etc. with metadecks this aspect of it just falls flat. 2. its fun to play the odd friendlies match with some of the old anime "rules". 1. inherently, this is a childrens' card game, so I think its odd to say the least how the competitive scene is ruled by these late 20s lookin niggas. like fam, maybe its time to move on to a different hobby, its getting kinda creepy.

TheMike0088 I agree with you on 5 and mostly on 4. I have a few issues with that, but mostly I agree. On 3, like you said. It's unpreventable. No matter what format, there will always be a deck that is better than the rest. Sure there are some that are no fun to play or play against. Like this format, True Draco and Zoodiacs. But I'm sure there are some that are fun to play. I only got into competitive yugioh recently so I don't know any off the top of my head. But there are fun decks that are meta and/or meta relevant. Dark Magician for example. I have a lot of fun playing it. And considering all the rule changes, it gets a huge boost once True Dracos and Zoodiacs disappear from the competitive game. 2 I agree on completely. I even play with some anime rules every now and then. 1, there are some points I agree with you on. Yes this is aimed at children. But there are people that have fun playing yugioh that are in their 20's or 30's. Also this isn't quite a children's card game. Card prices are way to high. The only way a child could get some is if they want to bankrupt their parents. Yes there are some points I agree with you on. But as I said. It is fine playing yugioh competitively as long as you're having fun with it. You get to meet a lot of people you wouldn't have met any other way. Now I am not bashing your opinion. I am not trying to change your mind. I'm throwing my two cents in there. And I'm hoping I could stop the misinformation that was in that comment.

I actually agree with most of your points. Here’s just some of mine: 1) Actually I don’t know enough about the competitive scene to know for sure, but I know that Konami eventually un-bans cards that have been power creeped, so... 2) I’ve made an Evil HERO deck for fun once, so I really can’t judge. But yeah, don’t bash other people’s strategies 3) Personally, I think it’s just nervous habits. 4) Goat format... I think of them as the Yu-Gi-Oh! equivalent of gen-wunners. Nothing wrong with them, just a different fan base/format 5) I don’t think there’s anything wrong with classifying a deck, but blaming it for your loss is kind of counterintuitive. Like that’s like saying you lost a race because the other guy trains with a different coach or something. Still hate stall decks though. 6) Jaden’s my favourite Yu-tagonist so that’s part of it. There’s also something weirdly satisfying about bringing out a superhero. Plus GX was the generation they got around to making proper rules for the anime, so that might contribute. 7) Other than links, Konami has been doing alright. Power creep is still annoying though 8) My biggest issue is just when the top 10 is all the same deck, but the meta tends to shift enough to prevent it from getting stale. 9) I miss the 5th turn... Remember when the average duel was 10 turns or something? Or even the super OG when you could just pass a turn because you bricked, and still not lose. When 2000 LP was actually feasible in the anime, since duels actually lasted past the third turn? 10) ... well they have released support for other characters. V-Z Armed Dragon Cannon (or whatever it’s called) springs to mind, even if it kind of sucks, plus all the Cyber Dragon support we’ve got. I think Utopia is also getting some support, and Red Dragon Archfiend technically got new cards with Arc V. Anything beyond is still a bit too recent to get re-tooled, but we’ve gotten reprints of a lot of pre-Zexal character decks. Personally I think Yugi is overrated (Kaiba’s cool though) and they’re both a bit overused, and we could see more structure decks for Crowler or something (always liked him for some reason), but Konami’s been pretty fair with retraining old cards

Players shuffle their hands, because not doing so gives the opponent information. Like if you had a card in hand since the beginning of the game, it could mean you are waiting for the other combo piece or you drew your Gem-Knight Garnet. Or when you play a card right after drawing it, that means you did not draw a hand trap. Of course only hand shuffling some of the time also gives information, so you have to do it every time. That does not make it any less annoying though.

I think all of what has been said in this video is honestly right. I do get why you dont liked heros and six samurai, it just doesn't give you that unexplainable feeling that makes you like it so much. I love blue-eyes, paleozoics, ancient gears, and six samurai alot. Some people hate those. It's just that I love those decks because I do, there really isn't an explanation since it's just a human intricacy that can't be explained. Always love you guys keep up the good work!😉

CaiusLigarius I enjoy playing a lot faster in the newer formats but it doesn't stop me from going back and trying to have an old fashioned duel just to appreciate how far the game has come.

I think hero decks are so popular because it was the most relatable anime to a large portion of the players. Putting it in a school setting is a great way to leave a lasting impression on viewers! Also why d hero, cyber dragon, crystal beast, ect are still common decks that are favorites to a lot of players.

Here's another unpopular opinion: I don't like Blackwings, I never understood why people love them so much.

Karl Schweinfurth they are fast and make it easy to synchro summon. That's it, I think they're alright.

surendra vasireddy As a Blackwing player who has played the Raidraptor matchup several times, 9 times out of 10 Blackwings win the matchup (especially with Links around now). While yes, Raidraptors can make big defensive boards with some occasional good offense usually reliant on Last Strix for Ultimate Falcon; Blackwings have some very good recovery plays with Hawk Joe and Gofu, massive offense from Raikiri, Chidori and Onimaru, good defensive plays with Armor Master, Kalut and Black Sonic and some pretty potent attack manipulation shenanigans with Nothung, Gale and Lost Wind (yes Lost Wind isn't a Blackwing card but practically every Blackwing deck plays it)

Because they love the aesthetic, play-style, synchros, nostalgia, they get a lot of support.

Bring back the E dragons. It's simple; errata them to remove the "or dragons" part of their summon. Those are the words that made them completely broken back then.

Bruce Wayne Goat Format is where you play against goats who try to eat your cards

Phil Dees Goat Format is essentially a 2002 format where Scapegoat was one of the most powerful cards in the game. People would need the free tokens for the tribute summon of stuff like Summoned Skull, old yet really powerful beatdown monsters. Nobleman of Crossout was amazing, man eater bug and hane-hane were trouble, etc.

You can say I'm salty, but I don't care. I dislike zoo because it ignores the bases of XYZ summoning, the concept is, "You got 2 monsters of the same level, now use those resourses (that COULD be invested in somethig else) in order to get the right card for the circumstance". The problem (FOR ME AT LEAST) isn't just the one card XYZ, is that the archetype invests a little and in the end gets a lot in exchange, be card advantage or thin the main deck out. P.S. good video and I respect your oppinions.

Since taking a back seat since 2014, I've come to a few realizations as to why I stopped playing competitively. One of my biggest issues isn't so much the restricted list (though, I did get salty over Compulsory Evacuation Device getting limited right when Pendelums became a thing), as much as it is that Konami doesn't always seem to think things through with the card designs. Three prime examples: Brionac, the Dragon Rulers, and Firewall. Two of those three items had to be errata'd. Yes, I LOVED playing Brionac, but even then I had to admit that it was broken, especially before Priority was taken away. And those are just small examples. This kind of thing has been going on even before Synchros with busted stuff like Sixth Sense, Necroface (which we never got to see at full power, but anyone that played WC07 for the DS did), Temple of the Kings, etc. Not going to lie, I'd love to see you guys do a "what were they thinking?" video on ridiculous card design.

I personally have always loved the Six Samurai ever since the originals. I also liked that they released a Six Samurai structure deck, it makes that deck far cheaper to make.

I like the beginning format because I could actually do stuff. There are a few decks out there where the most participation you do is sit down and draw cards. Alexis Rhodes and Mai Valentine are bae and definitely would love to see more love for the Harpie deck

I've noticed the emulation point that you were pointing out in Yu-Gi-Oh and other sports/hobbies that I've participated in, such as martial arts and/or paintball. I've noticed them spam shuffle their cards, which just wears on the cases, causes a tick that can actually cause anxiety and doesn't increase player skill whatsoever. I've noticed people attempt to emulate my fighting style, such as being right-handed and they'll attempt to copy my south-paw stance, while claiming that they're using Jeet Kune Do after I've explained that's a large part of how I fight (eclectic & practical based). I'm trained in over a dozen and a half fighting styles, so there's no one style that I fall on while fighting; also, ways in which I competed in tournaments w/stances, snap-shooting and other aspects. Try different things out to see what works for the individual, but don't force something that isn't working for you because someone else excels w/it, especially since it just gives a false sense of hope that it'll be effective for that particular individual like the person in which they're attempting to emulate.
