I've attempted to teach Yugioh to my family members via very basic Speed Duel decks, and even that proved too much of a struggle, so I understand why they made it. This seems like it's going to be pretty good at what it's supposed to do.
@netcat2210 ай бұрын
And you're massively misunderstanding the actual issue. This doesn't teach anyone how to play yugioh, it teaches someone how to play random yugioh cards. People might pick this up, play the decks, then expect a similar experience in actual modern yugioh, get stomped and subsequently stop playing the game forever. This doesn't help anyone. Master duel has the same problem. Konami never learns.
@Direwarlord2132 ай бұрын
The easiest way to teach people is literally to duel them with a deck from each era. Starting with each special summon. Normal sums only, special sum( Pre fusion), fusion, synchro, xyz, pendulum, link. In that order. Going slow, enjoying the game, that's the best way to get there. It's much easier to take someone through the progression, then start going through combos and hand traps.

No its not, its like 10% better than previous starters since they wrote the unwieldy rulebook into a zoomer friendly comic, it doesnt fix the issue that the rulebook is horribly incomplete and doesn't prepare the new player at all for the modern game. There are so many crucial interactions in yugioh that are very unintuitive and you just gotta know about them. If konami actually wanted to help new players then they would make a structure deck reprint of an old meta deck that is still tier 2-3 and get pro players to write a guide that they can put in the box. Instead konami pretends like its still 2002 and normal monsters, tribute summoning, defense position or the battle phase hold a lot of relevance.

I think a lot of the current playerbase is forgetting something key, the whole point of this set is to ease new players into the game and give them some cards that can be helpful long term, case in point Daigusto, Castel, and Zeus. Two generic rank 4's and an easy rank 12 quick effect board nuke. This is good for those younger audience members that didn't grow up watching the series. And lets be honest here, the metagame today is so hyperoptimized it makes it impossible for casuals and newbies to play at all. People like that and existing "pro" playerbase want two entirely different things with the game. The current playerbase wants reprints of high tier deck essentials, meanwhile casuals just want something they can mess around with their friends with. I've seen both, and the latter seem to enjoy the game a lot more than the former. I think a lot of people have forgotten stuff like this is supposed to be fun, not a contest to see who can blow more money than the other and get blessed by the gacha gods on their card pack pulls.

Synchro and XYZ summoning are not the reason why yugioh is hard to get into, its the million of small rulings that arent listed anywhere but are necessary to play and play against many decks, the complexity of combos in every archetype, even simple interactions like "MST doesnt negate" are not often covered by these beginner products.

Agreed the next product in this line needs to be fusion vs links and teach new players how archetypes work and how basic combos work. Then they need to work on making locals more new player friendly. One idea would be to do rental tournaments similar to master duel. This would allow for Konami to determine the power of each deck. They could also mark the cards as rental and not allowed in any duel outside those events to discourage stealing the cards

Not sure why everyone is complaining so much. This is clearly intended for new players learning the basics, not for experienced players. TCG is getting like a dozen product releases over the next couple months. Not every single one has to be aimed at veteran players. People also complaining that there is no synergy with the cards and no single coherent archetype but forget that this is literally how yugioh was played until 07/08. The game is complicated af, no new players wants to open a traptrix structure deck, spend dozens of hours learning the complexities of the modern game, and then get rolled by mannadium at locals. This gives new players a slow, gradual way of learning the game. Starting hand being vanillas can first teach levels, normal summons/sets, atk and def stat, battling. Then later in the scripted duel they learn effect monsters, spells, traps, etc. I actually really like this idea, but might be too late unfortunately. Barrier to entry for yugioh is already absurdly high, but still a nice effort of blending new and old cards for a new player experience. I still think speed duels, rush duels, or very gradually learning/playing goat then Edison then modern method is the best

If you want new people playing Yu-Gi-Oh, teach them MODERN yugioh. All this does it try to teach people how to play within the early 2000s timeframe while attempting to get away with it because they teach you how to Zeus your opponent. This is frigging scripted, they will be walked through the duels, it's not like they will have to come up with strategies by themselves. There's a bunch of Normal Monster crap that has been left in the dust forever now and I can't for the life of me wrap my head around the fact that you need to have something scripted in order to have poeple learn what Normal Monsters and their interactions are and what they can(not) do.

Everyone hating on this because it doesnt have any good cards besides zeus kinda missed the point of it. It looks like they picked a wide variety of stuff to try and show players some of the more common interactions in the game without getting overly complicated. I think guiding new players through a scripted duel is probably a better approach than expecting them to sit down read a rule book and just play on their own. I like the idea, wether or not it truly works has yet to be seen. Because not only does the product have to teach the basics but it has to be compelling enough to hook the new player in. I guess the hope is they get sucked in at the end of the duel, realize they dont have much replayability here with the included decks and then take a step up with 3 structure decks. The bigest issue i see is this product seems to rely on 2 new players learning together. If you have a friend that has some interest, youd probably just build them a quick deck to play with and teach them yourself. I think if this product isnt too expensive it would be an ok product for a total beginner. It all comes down to the MSRP

They could've had a scripted duel using cards actually do things tho. The moment those decks are shuffled, they wont do anything. Most of the reprints would've been bad a decade ago. This doesn't get anyone into the game, this doesn't teach anyone how it's played, it just walks them through a tour of all the game's mechanics

This honestly seems like a pretty good way to be introduced to the game if you don’t want to watch KZbin for hours on end and get smoked at a couple locals tourneys. Pretty good reprints, DD crow, dark hole, cosmic cyclone, book of moon, are pretty solid and zeus is huge
@SourChips10 ай бұрын
But the cards arent based off an archetype or something. Just random piles thrown together. Wish they at least went with a theme or something
@bass-dc917510 ай бұрын
"DD crow" Which allready has 4 reprints in common worth 0.15-0.50€. "dark hole" Has tons of reprints and goes for as low as 2 cents. "cosmic cyclone" Another 2 cent card with tons of reprints. "book of moon" Another 2 cent card. Face it: even the "good reprints" are just outdated trash that has been reprinted ten times over. The only worthwhile card is Zeus and even that is a streach. You get one card worth 10€ and a stack of garbage that adds up to maybe 2€, for 20€. And if people buy that, then they support the scummy practice of shortprinting cards and bundling up reprints together with heaps of trash.

Considering Konami designed this product for those who want to start playing yugioh from scratch, i think it's okay. Like sure i get why people are complaining how both decks are full of unplayable cards and how they could've done a better job (which i agree), but you have to keep in mind new players would get instantly turned off by the sheer amount of shit they would have to learn right from the get go. That being said, i'm still going to buy the product because i desperately need a copy of Zeus and Coral Dragon.

Instead new players still have to learn about all that stuff that konami hid from them and they will instead quit after their first real duel against a meta deck.

"but you have to keep in mind new players would get instantly turned off by the sheer amount of shit they would have to learn right from the get go. " Expecting new players to learn the concept of a handtrap is not that out of place. Kuriboh was released in 2002. And the concept of a synergy between types or multiple special summons is just as old. Remember flute of dragon summoning? You can EASILY teach new players these mechanics with cards that are still relavent today. I doubt new players will have a problem understanding effect veilor, Bottomless Traphole, Imperm, Evenly Matched, Solemn Judgement or Nibiru. I equally doubt that new players will have a problem with Lavagolem, Kaijus or a small Scrap engine. Those are not expensive. They are not complicated. They are still used in a variety of decks.

they couldn't have put in more than 3 playable cards in the 2 decks? I'm sure this scripted duel thing will teach the basic mechanics, but no one is learning how to play the game or how cards work together with outdated random "good" stuff

So lets say a kid or maybe two kids buy this together for the two player aspect, they play through the scripted duel, maybe duel against each other, but then what? neither of these starter decks offer a way to actually start playing the game against people not using this specific product. If a kid takes this and thinks it's a actual starting point for actually playing the game and not just a tutorial it's going to be disappointing for them when they realize these decks will lose to pretty much anything considered a deck by modern standards. Honestly a couple proper starter decks and a QR code linking to some virtual tutorial maybe using master duel as a jumping point for a virtual scripted duel, would of made more sense, that way the kid could actually take that starter deck and do something with it, even if it was like a full blue eyes deck and a full dark magician deck and it's a product that requires the child read the cardboard that says do not shuffle and trusting they wont fumble the deck in some way.

I real feel how hards it is to act like this is not a terrible release. the idea could have worked if it was Pokémon since it has done L2 deck sets and they know how to make good competive starter decks but konami is incapable of printing decent competive decks in an guaranteed set.
@bass-dc917510 ай бұрын
So in short: A total of 4 cards which are worth keeping, 6 cards which you may want to keep, a few situational cards and 70+ cards of absolute trash that belongs in the garbage and was not even played way back in 2002. ... Is that supposed to be a joke? A better start for new players would be just buying Structure Deck: Freezing Chains and a Structure Deck: Cyber Strike. You are cheaper off, have some staples in them, have a solid core which you can turn into an actual playable deck and wont toss away 90% of the cards upon opening the pack.

The comments below make it very clear people dont understand what the goal of this product is. Getting into yugioh is hard, very very hard. This is meant as a teaching experience for people who have never played a tcg, let alone the most complex one. Powerpevel this is obviously garbage and i agree the product is not perfect but this is not a deck, it is a teaching tool. And in that it succeeds greatly. However there is no jeed for it to be 40 card decks, makes it quite a slog to get through. 30 or 25 card decks could have made this product even better
@spookyoreos113410 ай бұрын
man i agree with you, the deck size should have been smaller. The one thing i really didnt want this product to include is vanillas like we are not in the early 2000 anymore. This game is about effect monsters. But yeah this is a teaching tool at the end of the day.
@Timikator10 ай бұрын
Yeah but the only "modern" interaction here is the d.d. crow aside from the ED mechanics, which I guess are ok to teach them in here. You are not learning modern yugioh here, and you're not going to learn Edison yugioh with this bulk either
