Gemini STRENGTH! | YuGiOh Duel Links Mobile PVP w/ ShadyPenguinn

[@joejengibre2577]

1st duel, why didnt you summon blazewing and use its ability to get phoenix out of the graveyard?

[@jaeger1123]

oh yes wanted to ask the same q.q

[@coldnemssis]

Just Scroll down to see if someone had notice, I think he didn't remember that his fusion give geminis their effect and he though that the blazewing would have just being a normal 1500.

[@cat100ize]

lol the misplay

[@cubiyo7631]

Shady's misplays tilts me.

[@Pridoloca]

I stopped watching it there, because I could'nt deal with it.

[@EllisLusk]

Rest in peace Switcheroo

[@TheColonelAngel]

Ellis ?

[@EllisLusk]

It's going to receive a nerf, requiring you to take 1000 damage before using it

[@todoroki9758]

Ellis I couldn't be more happy right now 😊

[@nagaitzu4120]

Yuki Judai why happy? Now everyone is just going to run Mai HHG atleast with Keith you saw variety of decks lol.

[@todoroki9758]

Naga itzu Because I play weevil burn and mai doesn't match up well against my deck.

[@kingrobertoux4628]

Let's give this deck a shit - shadypenguinn 0:30 (somewhere there)

[@d3stroyx69]

King Robertoux 0:42 😂💩💩

[@mathmagic8812]

King Robertoux 0:43 to be exact lol

[@dimitrimoore3319]

These thumbnails are amazing!!!!!

[@mrdude88]

Dimitri Moore If you like it, the link to the creator of the thumbnail can be found in the description and you can support him as well.

[@YTDan]

Must comment on this thumbnail lmao, I have no words.... lol

[@omgwtfrofltomato]

Dan whoever does the art might just have a huge crush on shady. even the "lets educate" thumbnail had shady as the "sexy" teacher.

[@acon9312]

Dan you're the homie Dan you and shady are my favorite tubers rn

[@Karim-zd2fs]

Dan your atmosphere deck is the best but i cant get 3 Venuses and switcharoo is getting nerfed😭

[@destinycoordinator77]

I sure love these Monday Berseria streams! ...yeah. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy Duel Links a lot, but I would love to see you continue Berseria like you said you would.

[@ZeroCodexG]

destinycoordinator77 I know right, I feel the same...

[@thebluePumpking]

Tbh, the best part of every YGO video are those thumbnails xD

[@HaruGamingCh]

I hope you read this... Just suggestions for your mill deck: -ALWAYS MILL YOUR OPPONENT TO ZERO IN YOUR TURN. -Don't flip your Hiro until you have enough cards to mill. -Change Locust and Golem into 2 Kuribos, they literally did nothing in your deck. -Since you have Kuribos you can remove Windstorm to tech 1 Lady Bug for Weevil, Mai, etc. -You can change your Feint Plans into Regretful Rebirths if you want, your preference. I know it's late but I really wanted to see you use the mill deck ever since the new cards came out. I hope these suggestions will help you make your deck better and I'm looking forward to see you win with it in another video. :)

[@HaruGamingCh]

Also try using Destiny Draw with it. :)

[@stellur_]

Shady please try the atmosphere deck I really want to see your reaction by using it lol the creator is Dan. 2x atmosphere 3x Venus 3x shiny balls 3x thunder dragon 1x sphere kuriboh 2x order to charge 2x econ 1x noble man of extermination 3x jar of greed Skill: switcheroo before it gets nerfed:(

[@jeffreypinarchick2127]

I really want to try this

[@jaeger1123]

rather go for an order to smash, a pot of avarice and then whatever instead of the jars of greed, helps you cycle a lot better and stuff in my experience :)

[@MegaExelent]

and even after the nerf, you can take 1k damage from summoning 2 shine balls from venus and switcheroo 1x for free basically

[@GaySpiders]

Peter McQuill doesn't work as well as jar

[@peytonalexander5300]

thehaxfactory Jesus, man. Calm yourself. You realize Shady isn't that much different, right? They are both quite over the top at times and there's nothing wrong with that. You can have your opinions, but there's no reason to be so aggressive about it, you know?

[@vinhmai8416]

26:23. "All right Tea, stop taking a crap on the field." LMAO!

[@Chris-ib8oi]

That Rex dual around 22 was awesome! One of the better vids. I've said I like your quirky decks, but I have to say that I really like watching you play the good ones too against even opponents. It's like a sports match!

[@mikewood8815]

Shady, you seem so happy in this vid, even though its part of a bulk recording session. Great to see you play a deck you are having so much fun with :) It is a pleasure to watch, more content like this please :)

[@SoraPallet]

Shady, general rule of thumb, when the text reads "When...you can", the card can miss the timing if something happens in-between effects, like when you searched with archer. Effects that never miss timing are written like "If...you can" or "When...do something" (you can't choose not to activate the effect). Rulings in Yugioh can be confusing sometimes, but there's always a reason for everything that happens. Have a nice day!

[@PneumaDelta]

about the "timing issue" to understand when a card can miss: the cards that use theword "if" for their conditionnever miss timing no matter the effects that happpened in the chain the cards thet use "when" are the ones thac can miss timing and to disrupt them you can activete any eff possible to answer their triggering condition hope to been of help shady keep up the good work

[@fabioferrieri9167]

"come on, Tea. Stop taking a crap on the field". I lost it there :D

[@covershopkid]

Yo shady, I was the one who said something about your thumbnails being baity on one of your vids several weeks ago and I got a bunch of likes... I gotta say, these new thumbnails are fantastic! Whoever has been making them has been doing an amazing job! I click on your vids now specifically because of the thumbnails being so damn cool:]

[@detroitlions1114]

"I though we were takin that lord D for a second" lol. Thought this was a family stream!

[@408monsta]

i love this deck so much because it actually kinda feels like im playing yugioh, with all the chain effects and how it synergizes, its great.

[@jonathontruax3691]

This Monday is definitely a manic one. Great deck. The video turns out so much better when you actually enjoy the deck. Keep it up, Shady P.

[@IncineRand]

First off, mad props to swamitsunami for these incredible thumbnails. Second, I'm considering trying a Gemini deck myself but was wondering if I would be fine with a single Phoenix Gearfried (I've gone through most of the Chaotic Compliance booster without getting one, and I'd really rather not reset just for a second copy).

[@michaelbarron7799]

RandysRage if you're trying this deck, gearfried is pretty important. If you have 3 of the dragons, I guess you could get away with grasschoppers, but it won't be quite as good.

[@blujay1524]

Love your duel links series Shady, keep it up :D

[@potentials7328]

Favorite YuGiOh duel links KZbinr your doing top notch work man keep it up

[@greggoso600]

Jesus Christ shady, first duel: you search the blazewing, you summon it, you tribute it and get the gearfried from the grave

[@acesovspades]

Shady keep paying for those thumbnails because those are some of the best I've ever seen lmao

[@tablesetflames]

"Alright, Tea. Stop taking a crap on the field." LOL.

[@arthurbarros71]

(opponent summons element saurus) Shady: "wow, going for the cerberus..."

[@francisibijemilusi1943]

man I really do appreciate your vids. you don't only show wins and I love your personality. hopefully I can make good content like yours someday

[@Athena.87]

Nothing in YuGiOh is more satisfying than overwhelming your opponent with boss monsters in the first few turns.

[@HiImFred]

Love these videos, you actually got me to play this game after i thought i would never touch Yu-Gi-Oh again

[@ProfessorLu]

I LOVE THE ART ON ALL THE YU-GI-OH DUEL LINKS VIDEOS!!!

[@tylera8423]

Shady I think you are awesome your the 1st you tuber I ever watched. I though one of the best moves you've made was the soul silver egg lock I know you have struggled with your interest and stayin consistent with Pokémon I think another egg lock would be a great way to connect with the Shady people who enjoy Pokémon. Regardless I enjoy watching what ever you put up. You are awesome man and best wishes with the family you will be developing in the future :)

[@tails512]

Branch is a "When...you can..." effect, so it does in fact miss timing. The monster being destroyed has to be the last thing to happen for the effect to trigger. In this case it was destroyed at chain link 2, and the last thing to happen was your search effect at chain link 1.

[@alexdalpe1133]

In the duel against Tea, Branch missed timing because it is a "When" effect and not an "If" effect. Since the last thing that happened was not the destruction of your monster, but the search effect of woodland archer, you miss the activation timing on Branch.

[@vincentcarbaugh5110]

Shady I couldn't tell you how many times I've started out with a crap hand like you did in that first duel

[@LeoGaming45]

Your opponent missplay in the last duel he could have attack the fusion Dragon with Lord of D. that way he would just have lost 1000 lp. This would make his field have the Blue-Eyes with his remaing 200 life points intact next turn. Anyways great duels Shady, loving the Pokemon and Yugioh content :)

[@autoturris5083]

Fuck that is one sick combo with Archer and Blazewing after a fusion summon. It's unbelievable and I'm pissed I didn't think of it sooner

[@kolbiemick2389]

Shady with the Defranco reference at 19:26 lol

[@afailureofaplayer2364]

who made the thumbnails they look awesome. way better than some of the others on this platform and you can see the effort put in t these

[@Tvmasterj]

Ekansolasser Read the description

[@NerdySteve007]

I FREAKING LOVE THIS THUMBNAIL!!! 💕💕👀

[@F4nGiRL]

the thumbnail art is always so good!!!!!!!ahhh

[@palpitoadman321]

ShadyPenguinn I LOVE the Decidueye line background on your phone ;)

[@xingping2162]

This is such a good deck for those who started after ultimate rising and age of discovery were rotated out cuz they only have to focus on just chaos complice

[@omegalioncod]

love how i recommended this deck on the last vid got completely ignored but still idk THIS VID IS LIT

[@soli6026]

Yo, where that Spell caster deck at?

[@saarahughes5560]

Ayo, where's that spellcaster deck, shady? Really hyped for it.

[@TeamChaosYugi]

That last duel was pretty clutch

[@decomorells2690]

FINALLY got my first enemy controller after so many fails, use the angel 07 deck thats the best one because it counters dd wariour

[@rolandwong1621]

25:40 when you are duel☞setting☞chain☞self chain on☞(you won't miss the timing next time)

[@travis-il9up]

“Alright Téa, stop taking a crap on the field”

[@michaelfels4742]

your opening hand had a monster it, the card just can't be played right away...a fact that made me rethink this build.

[@countryboy1671]

shady the video thumbnails are lit as hell

[@CptnCobblestone]

Dude the thumbnails are amazing

[@callumninez4471]

did you check the news on duel links about the skill changes? if so what do you think about what they did to odions skill? personally I think there's alot of potential

[@typup8888]

after seeing that thumbnail.... I don't want to live on this planet no more...

[@overdragon18]

Shady, since you're concerned with the glare in your glasses, you should get a light defuser. Or even just piece of white paper in front of the light.

[@s7121n9s]

nice comeback with that 1st duel shady

[@HattoriHanzo666]

10:20 Woah that was close, he could of summon Dark Magician and declare direct attack.

[@jaeger1123]

for the third duel with order to charge, branch won't work on it then since it can't be activated after a card effect as chain link 2 or higher, therefore activating woodland effect makies otc chain link 2 and branch cant be activated

[@TenaciousTogepi9461]

Omg the thumbnails keep getting better and better 😂

[@bobwaka1]

5:08 you should summon blazewing then bring out gearfried 18:10 you do fuse because you have branch in your spell/trap zone 21:00 you go to battle phase if he has the chance to activate then mirror wall will ask if he wants to activate

[@geilsonneville9279]

Your iPhone wallpaper was SICK! Where'd you get it?? Awesome vid btw

[@SilverXL13XR]

What is the name of those glases of shady? they look pretty cool

[@sonic64cx_73]

Loving The New Shades Shady 😏💯

[@jo_ken]

Shady I would love to see you make a Red Eyes fusion deck. I've always loved Joey's character in Yugioh and I think it would be something new and interesting to see from your channel.

[@Oo2k10]

Hey shady I don't think you missed timing on the branch, the effect only work if your monster was destroy by battle since it was destroy by card effect it didn't get activated maybe that's why.

[@intagiblemist9676]

This clip art is just the best.

[@frperezlopez9075]

your 1st game, around 530, you could have summoned blazewing popped his effect due to the fusions effect and summoned the bog boss

[@klpxx23]

This deck is so fun with supervise. Drop in a big bang shot for the otk plays.

[@blastchaos4286]

Best thumbnail so far imo

[@VirtuesOfSin]

Hey Shady, do you have Last Gambit on Joey? Please say yes or no, because I want to see you use this deck, but I don't know if you have the required character for it.

[@KingNat.]

Play a Harpies vanilla deck. They're really fun to play with.

[@redblood421]

That lord of Dragon worked against him at the end with not being able to tribute it to target his opponent monster. I guess the better play was for him to kill your fusion with blue-eyes then enemy since your gemini would lose it effect and then attack the other and had you have to try to get over a blue-eyes.

[@arrawnjames9838]

Wooooooo gotta love yugioh being early and gemini!!

[@GatsbyCioffi]

can you revisit the spirit deck? I'd love to see them get another go around!

[@SuperTyphlosion]

Hi nice vid, can you try amazoness deck? also why are your digimon vids privated?

[@Truecrimeresearcher224]

Jicky Wilson my real deck was harpies/Amazon's/spellcasters/e hero's/dancers. ya I had a lot but it was so fun to use not against my friends cause they hated I had like 3 back up plans

[@The-Secret-Dragon]

I dread to think of how much money you spend on this game but this was hella fun to watch!

[@AsterJ]

Okay so let me just explain the way you miss timing because it only happens with very specific card texts. Some cards read "WHEN blank happens, you CAN blank". as apposed to "IF blank happens, you can" or even "WHEN blank happens, blank". The last one is I mentioned is mandatory effect so it can never miss timing. The first one though is they way Branch is worded. It's an optional effect (as the words "you CAN" suggest) and says it can only resolve when it's conditions are met (the fusion monster being destroyed) with conditional-optional effects like those of branch, the condition for their activation has to be the LAST THING on the chain to have happened. Because order to charge destroyed your Fusion on chain like two, your Woodland still had to finish resolving and thus Alloy being destroyed was no longer the last thing to have happened. That's the only instance where you can miss timing. This goes for anyone else watching, hope this helps

[@kyomarusama7016]

watching the duels shady you need to stop hesitating when dueling you do great but that is where you fail still a forever fan

[@Jinzetsu]

Do you do the cover art yourself? It's amazing.

[@mkvd6323]

Awesome thumbnail! Can someone tell me if the superalloy beast raptinus fusion is glitched or something? I can't seem to fuse it with a substitute material (like mystical sheep) It is working fine with other fusions but for some reason i don't understand, this fusion will only work with 2 gemini monsters.

[@GreenPorridge19]

I think it ONLY works with Gemini.

[@cat100ize]

that card requires the exact monster name to be listed on the fusion card

[@mkvd6323]

Yeah i guesssed that was it. Thanks for clarifying though!

[@Ab_nak]

How do you think the changes to the skills are gonna affect Keith and his deck options

[@brandoncampbell1144]

This man was building a house... brick by brick

[@marcusthomas6502]

this deck was more of a concept imo. you need to look into blazinguns version. also consider sword of the deep seated for phoenix

[@lucasotaviom]

i love so much when he gets hyped by a deck ans loses lol

[@ruirisito]

wow, you are heartless 😂😂

[@BladesonGames]

Hey shady, can you try out an Aqua Chorus deck? I think it'd be cool to make one maybe centering around Yami with Diskblade Rider since if one of the AC is destroyed you can banish it for a boost. Considering you get two diskblade riders on the field with an AC and Yami their 2400 beaters

[@Truecrimeresearcher224]

TheKingOfGames Z I just got aqua chorus I am going to remake my harpie deck since I only have 1 diskblade maybe now I will get harpies hunting ground and I can work on another character

[@DynamiteDominique]

"Welcome back StolenPenguin" That username tho

[@LionLostInTime]

do you hear that noise? that loud noise! THERE BE WHALES!

[@phantomway2908]

bro bandit Keith's updated switerchoo effect is so bad now what do you think about it shady

[@jxstarluna7710]

I dont know why but i love his video thumbnails alot.

[@redzuanlee8728]

that thumbnail look sick as fk.

[@mrdude88]

Redzuan Lee If you like it, the link to the creator of the thumbnail can be found in the description and you can support him as well.

[@derpaderp8984]

Hey shady what do you think of the new skill updates coming out?

[@Charizardlison]

that shady moment when element saurus becomes cerberus hahah

[@PickyMcCritical]

Other than the Butterfly goof in game 1, I feel like shady played really well in the rest of the video. Super fun to watch this man play a good Gemini deck. May be my favorite Shady video. Edit: 25:00 Okay whyyy doesn't Branch! activate??? Sometimes this game's programming seems... off.

[@SpottedZebra]

It's an official rule of the game called missing the timing. Optional triggers that use the word when instead of if, AKA "when cans," don't resolve if the effect that triggered them was not the final action in a process. In other words, it does not work if destroyed by any card that was played in a chain with link number higher than 1, or by a single card such as Soul Taker, that destroys it before applying an additional effect using the word "then," but not "and." (See also: Gagdets vs Goblindbergh)

[@PickyMcCritical]

+Dave Z Well, Dave, I dun went and typed a wall-o'-text. Considering I only watch YuGiOh and don't play it, I understand if you skip reading and replying to this essay lol. I already typed it so I'll post it jic. Wow, that's twice you've caught me letting my confidence get the better of me. I'm just as grateful for this explanation as the last, though. It does bum me out that there are so many finicky rules in YuGiOh that aren't even mentioned in the tutorials (or even anywhere in the game?). Something still seems off to me. The card says that, when something happens, you can do something else. Once Order to Charge resolved, why didn't it then add Branch! to become Link 2, adding on top of Order to Charge? Or if Order to Charge clears the chain the moment the card effect takes place (which seems wrong to me), why doesn't Branch! then take it's place as the new Link 1? Is it a rule that, once a link resolves that all of them must resolve before considering the effect of a new card? "Missing the Timing" sounds like a game mechanic that decides for you that, even though you _could_ use the effect, that you "decided" not to because a resolving chain MUST finish uninterrupted. But if that's the case, why does a different card uninvolved in the chain get to apply it's effect when it uses the word "if?" Does the fact that a player's decision is part of the other process _really_ cause the obviously undesirable decision to be assumed? And regarding if/then cards, doesn't them interrupting a chain contradict the property of a chain fully resolving once started? And a non-chained card that destroys a card "and" does something else *wouldn't* prevent the "can" effect? Is that because the 2nd "and" effect is considered simultaneous to the 1st (destroy) and doesn't force the game mechanics to move on past the timing to a new event? If things can happen simultaneously rather than always being in-sequence, doesn't that contradict the notion of having to "interrupt" a resolving chain in the first place? Or even contradict the restriction from letting a card like Branch! resolve WITH the 2nd effect of a "then" card since its condition was exactly met?? I'd have thought that the player's "can" option becoming available is just as concretely stated as a descriptive word like "and." So if simultaneous occurrences ONLY happen when specified by card effects, wouldn't two effects resulting from the first effect of a card imply synchronicity more than a notion of "missing the timing" would justify ignoring met conditions entirely? Even if one of the effects was part of the same card and the other effect wasn't, they both seem to be conditions being met at the same time. Oh God I typed a lot about a game I stopped playing awhile ago :S I'm so sorry haha

[@SpottedZebra]

The one thing you're right about here is that missing the timing is a disliked terminology that implies you could've done it but missed your chance, when in fact it was made impossible by game mechanics. It's pretty fuckin hard to explain, but it's part of a rule that once a chain has begun to resolve, no additional effects can be added into it. So if branch was an if-type or a mandatory when-type, what would happen is order resolves as 2, woodland archer resolves as 1, then branch would succeed as link 1 of an entirely new chain. As for this happening outside of links with a card like Soul Taker, it's the word "then" that counts. It destroys a monster, then you gain 1000 life, then branch fails because the last thing that happened was you gaining life. But if that card said destroy a monster "and" your opponent gains 1000 life, Branch would work because the last thing to happen was both losing a monster and gaining life.

[@PickyMcCritical]

+Dave Z I added more shit regarding the possibility of simultaneous events at the bottom of my first reply while you were replying to it already. I'd be super appreciative if you gave it a look and gave me more feedback :S

[@PickyMcCritical]

+Dave Z So I just took a leak and managed to break my perspective down. It sounds like this game is missing 1 of 2 potential rules, else the mechanics are contradictory. The first rule I mention seems contradictory anyway : \ So simultaneous events (synchronicity) *are (is)* already part of the game via "and" statements (regarding two events on the same card). These effects, like all effects, have conditions that need met. Polymerization is simple because the only _implied_ condition is that the card be played uncountered. Once you play it, you tribute/discard AND the special summon gets to happen simultaneously. The word "and" was used because of simple English syntax, but we can observe that both events occur from the same condition. What throws me off is that if we are considering a two events that share a condition *but are on separate cards,* the event that happens to be listed on the same card as the required condition is the only one that gets to resolve : \ Solely relying on the word "and" seems like nonsense to me, though. Would we really expect every card effect with the game to end with "...and all effects that respond to this condition now activate??" I feel like this game is missing 1 of these 2 possible rules: 1) Card effects on separate cards cannot occur simultaneously and, thus, cannot respond to the same event. Priority is given first to an effect that is listed on the same card as the event, second to an effect that...blah blah blah? 2) Card effects on separate cards occur simultaneously when responding to the same event. Personally, I vote for the latter for two reasons. To me, it's more intuitive because of my point about reliance on the word "and" being a nonsensical result of grammatical syntax clarifying the most common situation. But also, if a card _says_ that "a player can do something," that event should occur, no? If a when/if/then effect still occurs and merely starts a new chain, why then does a "can" effect not do the same thing? The option to make a choice is just as much of an event as a reactive event, right?

[@rescuerat2206]

Shady! i'm sure many people asked you this but, will you ever stream duel links on twitch? I really want to see your deck creating and grinding methods at work! Plus maybe an opportunity to duel with your fans!

[@s7121n9s]

how do you get multiples of cards like Superalloy and Pheonix Gearfried when there is only 1 in the box?

[@coolmatrix15]

What part of the video where shady went topless??? Been replaying like 10times now... 😂😂

[@briarhamilton5854]

What will be a good deck after the update??

[@MustiToshiro]

I recently started using Bandith Keith with Switcheroo and whenever I shuffle a card to my deck I draw the exact same one again. Happened to me the last 6 battles.

[@brandonvictoriano4430]

When i saw this video at first, i was like "wow more geminis Shady, really?" after watching this deck, USE THIS DECK EVEN MORE SHADY i wasn't really going anywhere with that story lol

[@brandonvictoriano4430]

btw shady you should replace a gearfried or that gemini dragon with a grasschopper to counter the spell weevil uses and for a one tribute monster

[@Noir.e]

you should add some equip cards like black pendant so u can activate phoenix gearfried ability to negate spell/trap or use darkstorm's ability when u need it
