[@ThatGuy0-7]

Can't wait to see more👀

[@HybridMMAExtreme]

@TeamAPS Paul when will we duel??? I want to duel against you if I have to a regionals to challenge I guess I will do that.

[@chrisdunn8529]

Good game y'all, quite the squeaker 👍

[@ryankoller4028]

You guys made me want to play yu gi oh again thank you I wish I could duel you guys

[@PTarLugile]

@TeamAPS You guys should play an Ultimate tier Yugi vs Kaiba duel where you use their best cards including the gods!!

[@jovanpesut8857]

You gotta love these old decks. Even if they aren't considered meta anymore, they're still fun to play and most of all satisfying to use!

[@Monkeylighthouse]

Well even back then these decks were pretty bad. But still fun to watch

[@malyman316]

Its not that decks were bad they were just simple . Just later on they overdid it with effects. I'd rather play yugioh for 20 turns with older cards and have some fun. Than wait 20 minutes for my enemy to end his turn and win turn 1 ​@@Monkeylighthouse

[@wahwahwahwahwah]

no, they were just bad. there was a meta back then and it certainly was not starter deck yugi💀

[@Monkeylighthouse]

@@malyman316honestly the reason Yugioh is so over complicated nowadays is because instead of just coming up with new effects or strategies the main way they decided to make cards better was by making their effects busted and removing as many limitations as possible, examples of this are cards like Zeus, fusion spells that use cards from the deck , and handtraps, these are all cards that ignore the rules or limitations that were set in place just for the sake of being better than the last cards that released. Zeus would more than likely be completely worthless if he actually required 2 level 12 monsters

[@maxwellglover4880]

@@Monkeylighthouse hand traps always existed. Kuriboh? They just got more powerful

[@br000ly]

Nostalgia aside, this really was a entertaining duel, i could actually understand what was happening and the back and forth was great!

[@Newten02]

The understanding parts goes both ways bro😂

[@LCDigital92]

I’ll be the first to admit I’m a Yugiboomer who last played the TCG in 2006, but this kind of back and forth, I play a few cards, you play a few card, I lose some LP, you lose some LP, is infinitely more interesting to me than how the modern game and decks work.

[@a.s.3904]

I'm with you there! I prefer the OG Yugioh. All these newer generations just isn't "yugioh".

[@Drums_of_Liberation]

And that's why I run a Red-Eyes Burn deck in Master Duel. It's nostalgia and not spending thirty years playing Solitaire.

[@rob465]

You mean you don't like losing before you even take a turn?

[@AKRosarioMusic]

@@rob465😱

[@MegasXRL]

Thats why i play yugioh 2008 ds game on delta emulator

[@DrHydro-pr5ox]

That would be amazing if Konami did bundles like that regularly, especially since Yu-Gi-Oh is an ever-shifting game. Something like this could allow people to keep their favorite decks, and modernize them

[@SakuraAvalon]

This bundle was more of a 'we've got a lot of leftover stock, how do we get rid of it' That said, it would be nice, if Konami legitimately added in a competent deck, with curated packs. Though, they would probably see it as competition to their Structure Deck line.

[@wargamesmaster]

A Yugi deck using everything from Synchro to Link monsters would be so awesome.

[@tmgn7588]

Nuh uh. The cards were newly printed for this purpose. If it was leftovers you'd see another set number on the card. @@SakuraAvalon

[@matasa7463]

@@tmgn7588 Yup, this was a curated kit, meant for nostalgia purposes, and for kids getting into the game.

[@user-lh7mt7zo7l]

It'd be nice if they did it for characters outside of the original series or at the very least not just yugi and kaiba lmao

[@supercouple3733]

We appreciate the Forbidden Memories background music. Thank you

[@MiguelAnton1994]

That Waboku was a full Heart of the cards play!

[@bleack8701]

Interdimensional Matter Transporter. Absolutely love that card. But man, these duels had so many turns and they were pretty close. Quite fun actually

[@Linlin91022]

its good to watch some old school duels where i can actually follow their plays 🤣

[@legion3343]

I love how slow and back and forth these duels were compared to modern i wish they would reprint these decks and included the sdk bewd though call it nostalgia goggles but its my favourite design

[@spyriger223]

Im new into Yugioh, but i absolutely agree with you, these slow Battles are way more fun

[@daviddent5662]

For Yugi/Kaiba format this was a thrilling duel worthy of being an episode of the show itself! Very awesome games guys.

[@Ma7mid313]

How can you not love these guys like bro there is so much passion behind every video. Keep it up

[@CommodoreCards]

Nice one, props for getting both Dark Magician and Blue-Eyes on the field at the same time! These were fun duels to watch, I love the back-and-forth of "classic" Yugioh.

[@justacemanga]

These duels are far better than modern! Still enough happening as to not just be boring but not too much happening to just be overwhelming!

[@richardstamm2144]

Love these kinds of duels. Even if those beautiful UTRs are being played unprotected. Completely worth it to relive the old days

[@speedy01247]

I also feel the pain, but at the same time totally did that myself. also just remembered kid me getting a blues eyes ultimate dragon in Japanese and being stupidly upset that it wasn't in English. god modern me hates the abuse and eventual loss of that card. (I do have a new one in English, but I know that the one in Japanese was way more valuable, unfortunately I was under 10 and didn't know better back then)

[@richardstamm2144]

@@speedy01247 I feel that. I used to play the 1st edition yugi and kaiba starter decks against each other using a riffle shuffle and no protectors. But if every kid that played with the original valuable cards kept them in mint condition, they wouldn't be worth more than $5. Everyone back then had those decks, those cards, and a handful of really rare pulls.

[@ITrendzI]

These old deck duels are way more interesting when the game doesn’t end after 3 turns

[@K____M]

@@ITrendzI sometimes it even ends at turn 1

[@cardkana]

These two boxes were my true start into yugioh, Come a long way since that time

[@speedy01247]

me and my brother fought so many duels with those decks (me kaiba him Yugi)

[@DarkSymphony777]

All I can picture when seeing those packs is trell slamming that big dark magician in one of your videos

[@AlienWasteland]

Definitely feel like Konami needs to make more of these themed deck structure packs

[@ThunderWarriorZX]

Game got real as soon the jumbo cards are in the field.

[@JeffKGaming]

Dang Alec had all the plot armor Yugi normally has but Paul and Kaiba were just too strong.

[@henryhobbit93]

I'm here 100% for classic stuff. Also great choice in music from the Forbidden Memories soundtrack. Hella nostalgic

[@Alive7ill]

The best era of Yu-Gi-Oh, such a great slugfest and every card pretty much matters.

[@TheBombayMasterTony]

20:11, nice move. It was cool that you had tracks from Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories playing. Really entertaining duels, especially the last one.

[@reedwalton9741]

you guys are the sole reason i have any interest in yugioh at all. these are always so fun to watch.

[@lainhikaru5657]

Amazing duel, so much back and forth. Retro products and goat is what keeps the game alive for me.

[@chrisb7180]

Videos like this really are team APS at their best. Cracking packs and having a laugh.

[@RetroRushX]

I definitely think Konami should do more bundles like this, would be a great way to get new players started in the TCG

[@zeemaster99]

That last duel was not really close, but it was certainly entertaining. Love the way these older formats play out. Good video!

[@RetrospectiveChannel]

Very close and entertaining duels , I just love the nostalgic feel of the decks !

[@NicholasSunderland]

This was awesome. Those duels were so close

[@KingChiggy]

Could you imagine how unsatisflied Kaiba would be if he won against Yugi with 500 effect damage? lol

[@diversezebra6754]

Honesy, though? Kiba would fucking mock Yugi or Joey for losing to such a pitiful effect. He would NEVER let ANYBODY live that down. LMFAO

[@djstone9578]

Love these videos! Very nostalgic and im sure its just as fun for you boys to make it

[@CaptnCondor]

Love the Forbidden Memories music playing during the pack openings

[@Jimster_M]

Really awesome duel! Excellent choice in background music. Forbidden Memories ost is one of those that’s always a banger

[@ThatGuy0-7]

Love to see these uploads thx for these vids

[@Feraligatrfjhgujvgh]

Videos like these that reminds me of the good old times. That back and forth in yugioh was so damn good. Makes me want to make a couple of fun old school decks and or a cube.

[@SakuraAvalon]

The art in the Yugi's Collector box, if they had done a version with the anime colour scheme, it would be my favourite artwork of Dark Magician.

[@George-ef2pc]

I love these type of duels!!

[@GhostintheMachine25]

That was so much fun! Took me back to the lunchtime duels at school back in the day

[@VictorTAnderson]

This has such nostalgic vibes 🔥🔥

[@gabrielcatete8543]

omg!!!! those duels were so much fun to watch, I loved! Konami really should make more products like that so you guys can bring duels with them for us :D

[@Yu-S-A]

You guys inspired me to get back into Yu-Gi-Oh! Play and teach. I'm just doing what I must to get over my stage fright and learn/use the needed tech skills to start yugitubing.

[@nzardoin]

Great duel; very fun to watch and loved seeing the pack openings. FYI, zero gravity would still affect BEWD to change its battle position, because it’s due to a card effect. BEWD is just unable to change its position the regular, standard way. Side note, seeing some side deck action would be pretty cool for these duels.

[@djangoarcher]

Don't know a thing about Yu-Gi-Oh, but ever since I found your collabs with Tolarian Community College, I've been hooked. Thanks for making this great content!

[@traviswatkins118]

Now that was fun n yes they should totally do more of these with current cards

[@CrazyWizza]

We going back to the playground with this one! 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[@KennethKnightBlustripe]

Loved this so much! Ty guys so much for this!

[@Godzillamikey1337]

This was the product that got me into playing Yu-Gi-Oh. Will always have cherished memories of this deck!

[@SomeRandomJackAss]

I love this set! I got the Yugi one an it is so great. I forget how much I paid for it back in the day, but a starter deck, some boosters, a promo card, and an oversized card is one hell of a good bundle! I'd love for Konami to do more of these in the future. Maybe Jaden/Chazz and Yusei/Jack?

[@semicharmedlife311]

Good stuff!!! Lovin' that old school action.

[@ct0760]

So nostalgic of the old era of magicians force and dark crisis, tribute summons, tool box decks, sakuretsu and waboku, those were the days

[@TeamAPS]

Yeah, this entire duel just brought me back forreal!

[@angelocross5289]

I would love a series explaining the different mechanics of yugioh. I stop playing awhile ago and would love a video only using a specific mechanic

[@isleofredemption]

Man, Pepperidge farm remembers duels like this.

[@alexlamarche5730]

Rooting for Alec, that black pendant was clutch against such a beater Kaiba deck lol. Have to say in my opinion the cuts you guys made during editing on this one were really smooth and the pacing of the duel was great.

[@Mrboomboompow]

Fun fact , Kaiser is a German emperor , so maybe glider and sea horse have something there

[@dsproductions19]

The music choice in this is top-notch. Also, I loved seeing Interplanetary Purply Thorny Dragon. It's one of my favorite cards from the name alone, and it's pretty good in a dragon deck.

[@shawnstone9395]

Really exciting duels so many counters and chains. Super entertaining fellows

[@Zen_user-001]

These classic Yugioh duels are always the best in my opinion.

[@JaimeD.]

I think there may be a lore backstory between Kaiser Glider and Kaiser Sea Horse somewhere in the YGO Fandom. [Shrug] It would be cool.

[@hectorsoulless]

Loving this duel and the Forbidden Memories music. 😉

[@user-eo5fl7it8n]

I love Alec's reactions on Paul's traps " auuuuu" XD

[@roycereinhart-brown2549]

I love this! Massive Smile all over my face! Hahaha Thank you so much for making these classic Duel Monsters Games. I’m not a fan of the newer fast paced special summon 5+ monsters per turn and activating cards from the graveyard - it’s just not Duel Monsters.

[@samu166]

I followed this duel play so easily! Im definitely that kind of older player,haha! Thanks for this video!!

[@udhh2619]

Been watching magic games for 3 days straight going to take a break and watch this Yu-Gi-Oh action now😊

[@corvusblackfeather456]

Those Yu-Gi-Oh decks let you guys go ham when playing against each other, a fun time. Modern Yu-Gi-Oh feels more like you're in traffic where there's a stop-n-go flow to it. That or a flexing contest. Its more fun watching you guys play up the decks from characters.

[@TRX691]

I love these duels specifically

[@Young_BZ]

I love these types of duels!

[@joetokyo1158]

At 1:00. I just reread the atem vs yugi duel, and that artwork for dark magician is taken from a manga panel where atem summons dark magician.

[@Jarrett.p]

Haven’t even watched yet, but I already love it!

[@nathantaylor3773]

Last duel was crazy, love old school decks

[@eerieeric834]

The next video should be a tagteam duel with U2 as the paradox brothers and the other two do is being Yuki and Joey

[@DrunkardPanda]

i know this is old as hell, but GOD YALL. You (as well as some others (mainly for Master Duels)) made me want to get back into the TCG, so thank you so fucking much.

[@TeamAPS]

These products were so much fun!

[@aguskamal4299]

Wow it was fun duel, i love the old deck... before pendulum and link summon method introduced yeahh.. It was fun...

[@jean-michelguillemetaud3412]

That was so fun to watch! 😁

[@ViewtifulDarnell]

Sorcerer of Dark Magic not having the movie effect to gain attack for all your spellcasters in the graveyard is such a bummer.

[@a_embleton]

Watching your videos makes me reminisce the days I used to play. I sold my collection 3 years ago and I'm regretting it. Would love to get back into it 😅

[@filipsocan5427]

I just finish the 7 hours of a Rare Hunter video hah This kinda videos are awesome Hope you guys do the same with the GX stuff!

[@Darthvexen]

Slapping the massive boss monsters are the best part about these boxes

[@PolarBear084]

Not you guys using the music from the Yugioh Forbidden Memories PS1 game as background music and unlocking those memories for me! Great video, the decks honestly seems really fun to play against each other, surprisingly well balanced against each other too. Kinda makes me wish Yugioh had a more limited format like sealed in MTG. Could really encourage these more scrappy games.

Come a long way since that time truly

such a good match you guys, i had 1 of you based on the cards showed, and i feel like you be constantly trickin me, caus out comes cards you didnt show opening the packs lol but i actually really like that anyway. awesome duels this is what i wanna see idk about other people but its so much more fun when its simple yet complex based on the situation. run this back pleaaaaaaase and if Alex wins, then 2/3 caus even theres been better matches between yall but this is still the epitome of what your channel is to me which and is sooo much fun for us, and ofc im biased lol

[@sirswagabadha4896]

I would love more of these, starter deck duels are...sadly kind of the only use for them
