The Cheating Problem at YCS Vegas

So YCS Vegas was easily the biggest dumpster fire of a YCS when you consider everything that went on. Between the profanity, poor management, and cheating this will go down as one of the worst YCSs in Yu-Gi-Oh history.
Let's dissect a couple of the bigger moments of cheating that took place and discuss whether or not these we intentional or not.

[@TheoJay615]

The Voiceless Player moving Yubel to the Anima column was absolutely an intentional cheat imo. That's just too much advantage to be gained for it to be an accident.

[@ThaLedg]

Doing it once is a mistake. Doing it twice makes it clearly intentional

[@alicepbg2042]

​@@ThaLedgonce is an accident, twice is a pattern. As they say.

[@caveofmadness2143]

Yeah I saw this too, I thought damn it was a wish from the voiceless player to summon the Yubel-Fusion on his side xD

[@ImNotEvenGudBreh]

They did that multiple times across the match

[@TopDeckKaloy]

I love it when the Yubel player is aware that his card was moved but just kept silent until he saw Anima hahaha

[@exodus4104]

The match that really irked me was the swordsoul vs floo feature on day 1 where the swordsoul player made so many illegal plays it felt to coincidental for them to all be accidents

[@TemporalDelusion]

This is basically why I'm afraid to even bother going above locals level. I just know I couldn't handle people trying to scum me. I'm generally nice about everything at locals, but there are some sweatlords occasionally coming over from other locals to tryhard. They tend to do these kinds of things and unless you know every card and interaction chain by heart it's easy to miss things. Getting sharked or berated by opponents trying to get one over you unfairly is something I really don't want to deal with in my late 20s anymore. People really act the same as they did way back in kindergarten when nobody had a clue trying to make stuff up.

[@martinl.7758]

ngl. this isnt very common. you have idiots everywhere but if something like this happens its most likley not malicious intent and rather a honest mistake

[@Nephalem2002]

I understand the feeling. Only two locals in Ottawa that do OTS consistently have the best players in Ontario outside of Toronto, so as such their all gonna sweat.

[@FNigslol]

That's a you problem buddy. Literallyc

[@yamamoto800]

Yes bro I like to stay at locals to avoid sweatlords too. Then I can feel superior destroying all the blue-eyes players.

[@TemporalDelusion]

@@yamamoto800 Nobody plays blue-eyes and surprisingly most people play some form of rogue deck that used to be competitive at some point. The decks are fairly balanced in comparative power level so games are fairly enjoyable each week.

A nothing word to you. It’s some people who believe in God and that word offends them

[@babrad]

- About Prosp, it's not just on resolution. When a condition/restriction is separate from the effect, it means it has to be respected for the ENTIRE turn. This is also the reasoning behind SP banishing on MP2 despite attacking directly that turn. - About TTT/Baronne, most players have become accustomed to Veiler/Ash negating the effect or the card itself and not the activation entirely so it's a common mistake. The same thing happens with a turn player using Belle on something and then going for either TTT. - About Ty-phon, this confusion happens at least once in every event (from locals to ycs). The card text isn't that clear to avoid redundancy but just like you said I've explained many times that what Ty-phon's text means is that "you can summon it with its own procedure, if your opponent summoned 2 monsters from the Extra on the same turn, whether this is the current turn or the previous one". This is very common, the same as "Spell/Trap card or effect" being mistaken that can negate monster effects OR Solemn Judgment trying to negate a Spell/Trap EFFECT activation. Now about VV vs Yubel, I don't want to be biased because it happened twice or because it would be advantageous for them since both players seemed nervous enough to make misplays/illegal activations (for example the Yubel player tried to activate SP's first effect without using a ED monster, even saying "first time using SP"). During the first occasion, it seems an honest mistake from both sides. Still what I want to emphasize is that if you notice the misplacement of your monster, you SHOULD NOT wait to correct the gamestate after the opponent makes a move that would benefit you (committing to anima) and instead fix the gamestate immediately. I saw a lot of comments about "clever counter-cheating" and this is a terrible rabbit hole to go in since this kind of "sharking" is very hard to punish and can be applied to other cases as well (for example intentional illegal summons to fish out private knowledge like an imperm etc, then taking back the illegal play but proceed with the added knowledge). Since the player didn't argue at all saying something like "in that case i want to take back anima" (it wouldn't happen anyway), while in the second case it was fixed immediately by the judge (player saying sorry etc) i'm willing to believe it was just pressure from being in the feature match instead of taking out my pitchfork. What i really don't like on the other hand is using specifically archetypal cards in a different language instead of known staples, hiding some "restrictions/backdoors" they may have, while not having at least a translation of the card in the hopes your opponent won't bother to scan it with Neuron. This + partial explanations of card effects (Saffira adding from GY as well, so Belle would be a turn-ender) makes the entire situation fishy. Anyway, sorry for the essay, last thing to say: Always read your opponent's cards yourself and not just wait for them to explain "it's a stratos etc" while remembering you are actually your opponent's judge just like the opponent is your judge since both of you are responsible for keeping a legal gamestate.

[@PapajusLtu]

Slight add on prosperity comment, it's not such the case that it's a separate effect, but more that it doesn't specify for the rest of the turn. As for S:P, you can still apply the effect because "then" adds an additional effect and it's a condition for cards activation

[@babrad]

@@PapajusLtu this is incorrect. When the added part/condition/restriction is written in a separate sentense it's considered at ALL TIMES. I didn't say it's a separate effect, only that it's written in a separate sentense, hence the example. Prosperity or branded fusion is a "card activation" restriction. There are also others like "Shaddoll Fusion" that are "extension"-like effects. The reason Shaddoll Fusion can always be Ashed is because said "effect" can is checked during resolution as well, and is a great contrast to something like "Knightmare" link monster that decide the draw part during activation. SP is NOT a condition, unlike Prosperity/BraFu. It's an effect. If it were a condition, like "Black Luster Soldier Envoy of the Beginning 1st bullet point effect" for example, it would be written in a separate sentense as well. That's the reason BLS can't just attack twice, then banish a monster on the same turn unlike SP.

[@babrad]

My example about Ash Blossom is so that it's easier to understand, thanks to the interaction of "Ash Blossom VS Branded Fusion" still locking you into Fusion Summons for the turn (before and after BraFu's activation). SP would be similar to "Fusion Destiny" instead, which not only doesn't care about what was previously done, it's also part of the effect so in case Ash Blossom negates this you aren't locked to "DARK HERO" monsters. The typical HOPT restriction uses the above pattern for the same reason.

@3 Have you read the policy document, there are different levels of infractions, some that result in PE minor, PE major, UC minor UC major, etc etc, with those infractions, the penalty for repeated offenses, within the same event, can be elevated, a PE Minor giving you a warning 1st, 2nd offense is usually upgraded to a game loss, as you cannot apply a game loss to an already concluded match, the game loss carries into the next round. He got the warning during his match, and the 2nd infraction occurred upon the matches conclusion, the judge applied the penalty policy appropriately, going to far, would be having given him a match loss or a disqualification.

Overall, good video, I think you handled the topic well. The only problem I have is with your use of "intentional" versus "unintentional" cheating. If there's no intent, it isn't cheating - it's a mistake or an illegal play. These people don't deserve to be labeled cheaters for making mistakes in high-pressure situations.

[@rikacomedyletsplays2581]

this is why i just stick to having nostalgia decks and play online or against bots. The tourney "bruh" cult has made yugioh so toxic in irl that card shops hate us

[@littlezero6399]

Yes, I am old. Been playing since YGO came out blah, blah, blah. The game is so complicated, that cheating has been an apart of the physical card game since the dawn of YGO time. I cannot think of any locals when either myself or my opponent did not catch ourselves or the other making an illegal move. A simulator like Master Duel is literally the only way to eliminate cheating either intentional or unintentional and it is only limited to the simulators code and rule understanding. Cheating is so much apart of the physical game I would go as far to say, even though I don't agree, if you ain't cheating, you ain't trying. I love YGO but if you need to be distant coder level of game understanding to play the game without cheating, it is probably a poorly designed game with out a simulator to enforce rules. xD

I'd say it's more the fact that he had and played Anima right after. There's no way he doesn't know how that card works, so it's only reasonable to assume that the column misplacement in front of the EMZ was intentional so he could use the effect of a monster that effects things in front of EMZ.

It's not an auto disqualification, there are 2 separate illegal actions taken, you get warnings for each, if he had illegally activated talents or tried to summon Ty-phon multiple times in that match then yes, those penalties could be elevated, but you cannot give someone an upgraded penalty for a different infraction, simply because they were given a warning for doing something completely different, PE Minor illegal activation, warning, PE Minor Illegal attempt to summon a monster, warning.

[@MewtwoStruckBack]

You want to snuff out cheating? Get it in the terms agreed to to play in events that if you get busted cheating, the company is able to sue and take a HUGE chunk of money from the cheater. Like...tens of thousands of dollars. I would start it at "5x the retail value of the total prize support given to all players over the course of the entire event" at minimum. "Sell your possessions to satisfy the judgment" type fines. That money gets used as prize support for an invitational tournament each year, where they list how much money came from each cheating POS. It shouldn't just ban you from the game for 3 years if you get caught cheating - it should ruin your life.

4:57 I am not very sure about this. I heard it works like the normal summon, that if they negate your normal summon, it is still treated as if you normal summoned that turn. So it should work that, if they negate the activation of a card, it is still treated as if “a card was activated that turn”

[@PapajusLtu]

Honestly, it's just how it works. You get to perform 1 normal summon per turn and even if it's negated you performed it. Activation and other summons are different. If your Dinowrestler Pankratops summon was negated with Sauravis or Solemn Strike, you can still special summon another copy even if effect says you can special summon him once. Also same with Branded fusion. If your BF is negated by Baronne and you have another BF in hand, welp lucky you and you can use another one :D

[@jimmayorga1863]

​@kaantekin-sari5967 No, its because Baronne explicitly says "negate the activation" of the card that it is negating. So the effect veiler "technically" didn't activated because of Baronne, therefore talents can't be activated

Venue was plenty big but the organization and the judging was pretty bad. They were either way too sensitive over nothing or way too timid to take control of a situation. Like letting spectators stand in aisles and talk to players in the middle of events or like people were calling judges over just to milk time over players asking them to clarify if they were normal or special summoning a monster. At 2 minutes a judge should know that kind of call is taking advantage of the judge and the time rules.

wait you're siding with the judges on the profanity thing? wtf. like if they were playing against kids sure, but they were all grown adults. how horrifying that they had to hear the fuck word.

Did he? kinda seemed like he was making fun of it for the most part. I feel being more understanding of an aggressive FUCK, over a oshitgoddamn isn't exactly agreeing. he digresses but there has to be some sort of line for unsportsmanship, these people are supposed to representing the game after all, and they feel the line is at FUCK. I'm going to go way off topic but at locals the worst people are the ones who will swear at you for interaction, nothings more uncomfortable than hearing a 300 pound man saying "fuck me" because you shifter'd them followed by a "fuck sake" because you also had ash in your hand, then whiles playing your turn, looks like they're one poke away from flipping the table.

No. He was clearly against that ban, saying that the cursing was light and wasn't said in an aggressive/rude manner, but in shock. And then said he'd be able to understand if it was a more severe swear like FUCK. You didn't watch the video.

Those judges are a joke being paid for what? to sit there and overlook important details in the dual and just play on a tablet. What a joke.
