I don't care how broken the deck is, I'm just happy he played Legacy of the Duelist Link Evolution again.

[@HellbladesFFXI]

That flex summoning Exodia on your opponents turn is probably more hurtful to me than not being able to play at all. 'Oh, you thought you could have a turn finally? Nope. I win.' The rage that would induce is maddening lol

[@cyphate]

I've been watching this entire video hoping that someone will tell me what pot of greed does

[@ChillDragon]

I dunno man, hardest card in the game to understand for a reason.

[@rcb657]

Yeah, it's a pretty complex card. I'll try my best to explain. So when you play the card, you start by placing the card onto the spell/trap zone field of the game in a face-up position. This signifies that the card is being "activated", which means that its effect will begin. At this point, you will need to move your hand to your deck BUT! Don't get too hasty - you do NOT want to pick up your deck at this point in time. Instead, you should grab ONLY THE TOP CARD OF YOUR DECK! This is VERY IMPORTANT!! After grabbing just that ONE card, CAREFULLY lift it into the air BUT WITHOUT SHOWING IT TO YOUR OPPONENT! Then you are allowed to add that card to your hand. BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! Now you need to repeat the process you just did STARTING at the part where you pick up ONLY THE TOP CARD OF YOUR DECK. I trust you fully understood the previous process that was just completed, but as a quick recap: 1. CAREFULLY lift the card off your deck 2. DO NOT show it to your opponent 3. DO add it to your hand At this point the card - that card, of course, being "Pot of Greed" (a registered trademark of Konami Inc.) - been, in technical terminology, "fully resolved." This means that you may lift the card out of your "spell or trap zone field" and add it to your "graveyard zone". I hope this very brief tutorial helped to clear up the shear, vast complexity of this card. Lord knows it took me YEARS of study to finally figure all of these steps out. Hopefully my mistakes make it easier for you and others to grow into master duelists.

[@kisaragireion]

Oh man, that was an essay! I give up trying to play Pot of Greed. I think I’ll have more luck with pendulum monsters. They have less text

[@Gerry1290]

I think it's a monster card, idk 🤷‍♂️ even in the anime they barely use it 😂😂😂😅

[@luiss1740]

They say only the most astute duelists now

[@kalythai]

*puts entire deck into hand* Oh gosh, it's the five pieces of Exodia!

[@tevishszat6900]

Statistically, a reason why Exodia would be always "on the bottom" would be the thinning. Cards thinned out by Toon or Painful are cards that can't be "below" Exodia, so you're often pulling 10+ cards out via non-draw mechanisms. Then, there are 5 pieces and 40 starting cards, it's pretty likely at least one was in the "bottom ten". If you shuffle a 10 card deck with 3 pieces still in it because of thinning, it's pretty likely at least one will be in the bottom three.

[@theoroderick782]

What u mean below exodia?

[@MistaOppritunity]

@@theoroderick782 If you search for a card and pull it out of the deck, there are less cards in the deck to be beneath the exodia pieces in said deck. So say he mills/searches 10 cards with both painful choices, and pulls all copies of toon tables and toon world out, the deck would only have 20 cards because of his starting hand. It is highly likely that at least one piece will be on the bottom at that point because the pieces of exodia make up a quarter of the deck at that point.

[@loyalwar658]

I’ve been waiting for this playthrough!!

[@oromain]

I found this deck in a strategy guide and used it to rush through the game so I could unlock the cards/decks I wanted lol EDIT: Oh man you're so lucky Pegasus wasn't playing Madolche to a meta capacity, cause that game would have been over once anjelly hit the field otherwise.

[@kyledabearsfan]

Im just now finding this game. Definitely the best one out right now.

[@Gerry1290]

Great 👍 😅😂 it reminds me the stream vs Seeker and his Exodia 3 years ago, still in my fav. 😁

[@ZaidValRoa]

Make a milling deck next. A whole new level of not letting the other party play.

[@zdelrod829]

Happy to know I'm not the only one who plays the Switch version!

[@DawgByNature11]

All this milling and I'm thinking about lightsworn.

[@henrydingsings6929]

Thats the kind of player, who even cannot do a Synchro summon.

[@johnnymartir8283]

I just started play this game a few months ago and I immediately built this deck once I had enough DP to get all 3 copies of Painful Choice which is the most difficult to get by far. I've experimented with the deck enough to know how to loop through Painful Choice. That is to say which cards to pick and which card the AI will always choose. Which in turn will short the length of the duel. Also, I opted to run the full 3 copies of Pot of Duality & Good Goblin Housekeeping and took out the Legacy of Yata G. & One Day of Peace. Playing the play set Duality allows for a constant way of finding the main combo card Painful Choice. And the full play set of Housekeeping allows for a draw 3 when dumping multiple copies with Painful Choice as well as allowing you to put Exodia pieces to bottom of the deck which nets an additional 100 DP per duel which adds up considerably after campaign & duelist challenges completion, not to mention farming duelist cards

[@masterofiv2882]

"He has a legal exodia deck." "Ain't nobody got time for that." *Meme*

[@xVengy]

I like to use foolish burial to send makyura to the GY. Also you can run double summon to have 2 librarys on the field stacking counters. Also they are both spell cards so they give counters on library

[@russianbot8576]

exodia piece on the bottom is likely due to the shuffle algorithm. turns out, players tend to think of adequate shuffling as groups of cards not being together, but if someone draws into the five pieces back to back, it looks like an unshuffled deck. MTG:Arena had this issue and they have routinely modified the shuffle algo, with a backend reshuffle if it still accidentally _looks_ too nonrandom to human psyche (such as drawing full land hands, which is near impossible to have happen on arena, but not irl). we’re all bad at calculating chance. my exodia deck runs multi of each to make this process go faster to farm points tbh.

[@Registeel13Ty]

didn't know they gave Pegasus Madolche in this. Kinda makes sense, although Pegasus' English voice actor once did a live VA duel at an event using Wind-Up.

[@brunop.8745]

As a Madolche enjoyer myself, I was pleasantly surprised

[@didack1419]

It fits with the character

[@lukeo5761]

This was dumb, but fun to watch. As for why Exodia was the last card in your deck so often? It's because every time you search the deck it shuffles it. The less cards in the deck and more exodia pieces when it's shuffled, the more likely an exodia piece will end up on bottom. (Also, a lot of your draw cards *can't* get you exodia even if it's the next card

[@Inferno505]

If you ever want to make a deck that makes you feel like complete trash, might I recommend a combination fish and exotia deck someone used against me in master duel. It's key cards are right hand shark and number 59: crooked cook. The goal is to xyz summon crooked cook using right hand shark as a material. When crooked Cook is your only card on the field it is unaffected by card effects. And any card XYZ summoned with right hand shark cannot be destroyed by battle. So then you just sit there drawing cards but playing no cards, until you slowly draw exotia. The only way to deal with this strategy I could come up with is to have something that targets your opponent's hand. Then you could just try to get rid of one of their exotia pieces, forcing them to play other cards to get it back and negate crooked cook's protection temporarily. I copied this deck from the person who defeated me with it , but when I tried it I felt like the worst person in the known universe. Now I pass those feelings on to you all!

[@GeargianoXG]

You can also beat that deck by tributing the crooked cook with a kaiju or with piercing battle damage.

[@Brokeashe11]

You got destroyed by moist critikal lmao

[@timaeus22222]

30:15 - Believe it or not, I've gotten hit by Legacy of Yata-Garasu while I had Amano-Iwato on my field, and they drew two.

[@Inferno505]

In one of the master dual recent events events there was a set of three pre-made decks to pick from, and one of them was a modern draw into exodia type deck. I was acting pretty fun to use. It had a lot of trap cards that protected you from damage and let you draw cards. It was also running the exodia monster card and obliterate trap card to save pieces out of your graveyard/ mill pieces from your deck into your graveyard. I have no idea if it's competitively viable or not, maybe it was only viable against the other two pre-made decks who knows.

[@TheKnightOfBuquicious]

it was cool but the opponents just surrendered as soon as I had the upper hand was likely to draw all the pieces which was kinda shit

[@Crysi9988]

1:14:47 I was hoping you would beat Weevil with this deck

[@collinmacneil9670]

Chances of drawing the 5 pieces of Exodia on your opening draw- 1/658008. Chances of Christian drawing all 5 pieces of Exodia on his first turn- almost 100% 😂😂😂

[@e.farias8813]

awesome ! i'm still playing this game to this day

[@michellima5280]

Oh yeah, that remembered me the time the ia had exodia on the first turn. I literally did nothing.

[@gluttonousgoddess]

There's something poetic about defeating the creator of the game with an otherwise forbidden (hah!) deck.

[@Handsomeanthony68]

I’m still a little confused. Can someone clarify what Pot of Greed does?

[@eric7798]

The world needs to know.

[@misterghoul9457]

i would tell you, but Kaiba corporation has put me under an nda

[@RandomPerson964]

Pot of Greed lets you draw two cards. Anyone got a pencil and paper? Also, what cards do you want me to draw?

[@ChillDragon]

​@@RandomPerson964 But what does it do?

[@Afrodo307]

Made this deck and Holy Moly is it Busted

[@n.henzler50]

I used a similar deck to grind for rewards in the original version. Unfortunately, the Link Evolution Exodia animation occasionally crashes my game on PC, so I actually had to play the game the second time around. :P

[@unknownoption7013]

You can run 3x Destiny Draw and Trade In and Destiny Hero Dogma and Dreadmaster to use it. You can also run Toon Blue Eyes for trade in.

[@TheKnightOfBuquicious]

in that Pegasus deck, if the set card had been infinite impermanence, that would have been such a high value imperm lol

[@omegazeroful]

I did this once on ygopro, using anime only cards. Turns out there are a LOT of "draw 2" cards on the anime.

[@didack1419]

Just to not repeat.

[@DawgByNature11]

I can imagine if you was playing multiplayer the other player would be pissed.

[@didack1419]

If I were to encounter something like this, I think I would laugh, the first time, the second not so much.

[@jerematic]

Watching Pegasus use Anjelly into Puddingcess hurt to watch... My dude Pegasus, it's Anjelly - Hootcake - Messengelato - Salon/Ticket

[@atraxian5881]

After watching the first game I realized how slow the animations really are.

[@masterofiv2882]

This level of broken would probably go well with Blast The Ruins and Bad Reaction + Gift Card.

[@lionablaze8747]

I wish they would update this game. I hate master duel's gacha garbage.

[@Cadonkadonk]

After playing a fair amount of master duel, oof these cards move slow

[@nawfalmisconi1287]

It's ironic how they ban cards so people get a chance to actually play the game instead of being OTKed, but the average turn count for a match these days is three-five, most of which is watching the other player set stuff up that can take 5min+ sometimes. At that point, might as well not ban anything, people barely play the game.

[@feathero3]

Glad I'm not the only one who feels this way.

[@gameranma]

Its back

[@kirawedderburn]

The many decks that’ll piss people off 😂.

[@aeroblaziken4145]

This is equivalent to the "lol Cena wins" meme

[@naos8116]

Lucky there's no Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring in this game for the AI.

[@sir.hopper]

Ash would have only stopped a single draw effect, which would be negligible. Effect Veiler on Library, however, THAT would be a bit hit.

[@narutobroken]

How can I unlock these cards? I’m trying to find out what packs they are in

[@snsdarkness3743]

Very nice 👍

[@KitsuneNoMeiji]

"This is why cards are banned in this game. Kaiba did not get to do a single thing." Well... I hate to break it to you, but this is still the case even now. When you play Yu-Gi-Oh, whoever goes first pretty much wins while the other player sits there and watches. And yet, I still play. I love my casual Plant deck.

[@naos8116]

Maxx "C", just try to play something. Especially after I set up a board with three negates.

[@byssted]

this video makes me think runick might just be boneless exodia

[@didack1419]

Not even with those modern handtraps?

[@brutalnobody5240]

Makura errata is really bad, the card now has to be destroyed and only works once.

[@TheKnightOfBuquicious]

I forgot how slow this game is lol

[@mateobonavento3939]

You know, it might be deliberate to make the Exodia pieces be in the bottom of the deck. I don't know about this one, but in the GBA games you gain much more points if you win with like three cards or less in your deck. Maybe if the game detects the pieces of Exodia in your deck it makes it more likely for one of them to be in the bottom for the extremely low deck bonus. Back then you gained like 1500 points more so maybe there's a similar bonus here, and if you're running Exodia the devs knew you'd be grinding points with first turn victories anyways. This is just speculation on my part and it might be just your luck being like that. Also what the hell was with Seeker?! How the mighty have fallen.

[@sigma5902]

Still not as impressive as the 0-Turn Kill from GX (I'm joking but would love to see Asprey play a deck based around a 0TK)

[@spookylobby]

How much is 321,504 Coins is that a lot

[@CW-hw8nu]

I wish someone in the anime would play a deck like this. Just to be stupid lol

[@LtheOriginal]

That's just Seeker's deck from WCT 2004 .....I fucking hated fighting that guy btw.

[@GlitchManOmega]

Now do a Final Countdown deck :D

[@Mrjacharles]

LIBRARY IN ATTACK MODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kisaragireion]

Reported for false title. Was expecting YuGiOh but got man playing solitaire instead. Anyway, really want Christian to be a custom YuGiOh character whose catch phrase is “Remember, this is still turn one” as he obliterates others with busted exodia deck

[@longliverocknroll5]

Not a big Yugioh player, just a watcher, but should you not activate Dark World Dealings before activating Graceful Charity at 19:32?

[@jazzymyn13]

Can't recommend that play

[@longliverocknroll5]

@@jazzymyn13 Would it not be more advantageous to thin the deck 1-for-1 beforehand? Especially given that he had a card he could have tossed under that game-state? Or is the play don't risk not getting a card you'd risk tossing for GC?

[@kinnikuboneman]

Does it end up actually mattering?

[@longliverocknroll5]

@@kinnikuboneman Does it matter in a prerecorded video? No. Could it? That's kind of the point of why I'm asking.

[@byssted]

No. If he had drawn a piece of Exodia off of Dark World Dealings, he would have had to discard Graceful Charity since he’s not playing a way to get Exodia back from grave, and then he’d be banking on the draw from RML to be something he can actually use. If it was the fourth Exodia piece, Makyura, or a Trap card (as he hadn’t gotten Makyura yet), he might be fucked. Graceful Charity gives you three chances for it to be a good card so it’s far less risky.

[@Sion879]

Would it be more consistent if you had 3 of each piece?

[@FriendofFantasy]

As he states in the video, three pieces that would just end up being useless bricks. It is better to have cards that you can play to draw more cards.

[@Aced91]

thank god this is banned from online play , not because its cheating, but because the opponent has to wait 5 whole minutes there of doing nothing xD
