My YuGiOh Obsession and School

I really loved Yugioh, (still kinda do) so today I thought I would share my experience with one of the greatest card games of all time... and what happened when school came into the mix.

It appears that _"The Heart of the cards"_ was not just cheap talk about believing in yourself and your allies or whatever, but very much a real thing that dictated one's performance. During the Duelist Kingdom duel between Mokuba and Yugi, he tells Mokuba that there's no way he can win with a deck that's not his own and his heart is not with those cards. Yugi and Kaiba standing on top of all duelists is in part due to their link with their monsters from their past lives, their deeper connection to the heart of the cards than anyone else's.

When I was a kid, I had a friend with a super religious family that I would play Yugioh with. His religion never seemed to get in the way of us playing the game so it was never an issue. One day I go over to his house to play, with my deck and everything. When I ask him if he's ready to duel he tells me he's not allowed to play Yugioh anymore. I ask him why, and he tells me it's cause mom said it worships satan and all that jazz. My kid brain was like: "Well, if you're not allowed to play anymore... Can I have your cards?" Dude had awesome cards, like dark paladin, Buster Blader and stuff like that. "I can't give them to you." "Why not?" "My mom burned them all." Little kid me was destroyed hearing this. *"WHY DID SHE BURN THEM"*

I have an amazing story with Yu-gi-oh. because my friend Emerson and I started a yu-gi-oh craze in school, I bought Saga with Eyes of Blue and he had a Yugi Starter Deck. We played in the break and all my class used to watch us, and then everyone in my class bought yu-gi-oh cards as well and started playing with us, and the thing was so popular than even our school cafeteria (which was owned by one of classmates family) started buying the cards, so soon the whole school was "playing" as well. (I said "playing" like that because only my class and some guys in fifth grade truly knew how to play, and most of the people played it in invented ways) I treasure those memories very much, and all of us in the graduation exchanged our cards to have something to remember about each other :)

[@arep1030]

[@GamingwolfZJ]

My experience with Yu-Gi-Oh and school was a weird one, and one where I wish I could go back in time and slap my younger self. My elementary school had no restrictions when it came to card games, other than you couldn’t play during class (obviously). However, there was this one teacher that would tell us to stop, and funnily enough, called them, “Pokeeman cards (yes, I spelt Pokémon the way they said it). We didn’t stop, of course, and always found new spots to play. The thing that I want to slap my past self for is that the guys I played with were not the most best of people. They had really good cards, and they technically got me into it, and they knew they could take advantage of my stupidity when they saw I had a really strong synchro and a number card. So, they played what we called “Bet Duels,” where, you guessed it, each player bet two cards, and the winner got both. I ended up losing those two because of that. However, I ended up finding the deck of the guy that I lost my synchro to, and I stole it back during a free period where I knew he wouldn’t be in class to see me. The next day, though, he caught me red-handed and told me to give it back. And I, wanting to be honest, STUPIDLY gave it back to him since I had brought it with me. Later, these guys ended up getting a card that they could summon on the first turn and wipe me out instantly, so the game just stopped being fun and I essentially severed ties with them when it came to Yu-Gi-Oh

At my school we had kids try to pull that crap (but I was the "king of games" or the top player of our group) and I told them that was a forbidden playstyle, as taking people's cards discourages people from playing the game with us and that if we win, we are responsible for helping improve the opposing players deck. (That rule stayed even after I lost my title and I think it really helped people feel comfortable playing with us)

I still remember when I was in primary school, my mum would most of the time be late from work, so I got put into an after school care program and almost every kid I spoke to had decks that had all the ace monsters like dark magician, blue eyes, red eyes, etc. but around this time yugioh gx had been around for about a year now and no one had a E-hero neos for some reason. I remember everyone got given booster packs as a end of school year Christmas gift, everyone was pulling out the armoured dragons, the ojama's and ultimate tyranno. but when I opened mine and the first card I saw was neos. I'm not going to lie, but I remember shedding a few tears and screaming at the top of my lungs. I got Neos and immediately put him in my deck of random elemental heros and cyber dragons. One of the best moments of my primary school life ever. From that point on, whenever someone wanted to duel with me, I've always had Neos.

[@Wolfen5207]

For as long as I can remember, I played Yugioh, and my parents supported me to the point of bribing me with new cards if I showed good behavior at school at the end of each week. Yugioh and Pokemon were everything to me as a kid, until a little over ten years ago, where I discovered my current obsession... MTG. For the first few years I still collected Yugioh and MTG cards (I had fazed out of Pokemon cards because I had never learned how to play and my brother despised the concept of Pokemon), but eventually, I had decided to move away from Yugioh entirely and focus completely on MTG, and it's only very recently that I'm pulling out my old Yugioh cards and building decks with them.

You talking about this reminds of the time when kids in my school were actually betting on Beyblade matches during recess like between all the we actually had a Beyblade king but are school starting banning them cause kids were stealing them which sucked at least it lasted almost 2 years but it was fun

Beyblades just died out in my elementary school when I was in 4th grade.

Yes, we had like tournament everyday after school and everyone had their most iconic beyblades (mine was Leo cuz my horoscope is Leo) and we go all anime stile and battle while the older kids betted on matches. Only true india gang remember beyblades

Hey man, Aztekipede and Shield Worm still see play today. Your insect deck still does things! Not to mention, I feel some resonance with you in Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh! In the bug department. Always loved the designs and arts. Just couldn't keep up with the meta I guess?

[@CosmicCadet]

Reminds me when I used to bring my cards to elementary school which ended up okay. In middle school though a fellow band member stole half of them and I never saw them or the small binder they were in again, other than her showing it off at lunch claiming them as her own. But I sure had to see her face every single day in band for three years. Fond memories ❤

[@neanight222]

This is such a lovely, wholesome, cool and relatable video, thank you for sharing your story! Yu-Gi-Oh! definitely carried me through a lot as a kid and it still does today as an adult. I got back into it over the past couple of years, I'm collecting cards like crazy, playing Duel Links and want to properly get into the TCG for the first time in my life and it is so much fun, I definitely absolutely don't care what others think about it, cause it makes me happy. ❤ Awesome video, really loved it!

[@adolfopagano7762]

I never tried to play YuGiOh at school *that* frequently, but I must say that I once held a one-week-long authorized class about YuGiOh and I managed to teach a lot of people how to play by making them temporarily use one of my 20 decks (I managed to reduce them recently because they were trash). It was really fun and people loved those "lessons" to the point where they ditched other courses and came to our classroom to play. It was really beautiful and I really miss those days.

I will never forget the hours I spent watching every single season of yugioh three times each and not regretting it

[@tiozuradasexatas6754]

"As some form of cruel and unusual punishment" Yami Yugi liked that. Btw, the card game ban never happened on my primary school. Kids were too hectic and hard to supervise without getting hurt, so when the Bakugan Boom came to the school, teachers and inspectors even encouraged us to play, and in children's day we even got some bootleg ones, this being one of my fondest memories from school.

[@masonblack01]

you got me in the illegal at school part. Used to be the same in iiraq/baghdad

kids in college played it. I would sit near them because I too went to a private high school but, my classmates weren't into Yu Gi Oh or anime. Basically anything fun so I was deprived until I went to another school and college and I'm like mi gente (my people) yet I haven't played since 4th grade.

When you actually find someone who actually plays yugioh as a teenager or an adult, is one of the best feelings. They are so rare to find. Most of the time they are ashamed they like it, or stopped playing because no one else liked it. I really like people who don’t care. I tell people that I always carry a deck or two on me. I never leave my house without one. I’m always ready to duel. lol

Love this video. It was recommended to me and I'm not disappointed with the wonderful algorithm. I fully agree and understand you. I still watch the original 4Kids anime even although it is a wee bit cheesy. That's just part of the charm I think (especially the scary finger guns 😋) and despite being almost 26 now, I still play when I can and I'm on Duel Links every day even sometimes stream it. When I met Dan and Eric here in the UK, twice, those were some of the best days and memories I'll cherish forever 😁
