They also released a "counterpart" for this, Amabie was released during the pandemic as a symbolic gesture as in japan, the Amabie is a yokai that comes out from the sea and predicts whether there will be good harvest or an epidemic, in yugioh the card works in an almost similar fashion as, at the start of your main phase, you reveal the card (mimicking coming out of the sea) and each player gains 300 lp, as if she's predicting prosperity in the future instead of an epidemic.

Fortunately Rush duel kind of goes back to that without slowing the pace of the game down. By getting rid of the extra deck in favor of speeding up normal summons, those cards now have more of a use again, which makes Rush duel a great way to modernize Yugioh before the horrendous powercreep. Though Link monsters really are what broke the game beyond repair as they don't have a mechanical weakness like the other summon types and while yes they speed up the game, they basically obsoleted almost every other strategy like these equips cause "you can just link it off" which is the most bullsh8t thing.

I do like how he considers the casual/for fun strats this time. These are my favorite kind of videos, when he explains the most niche ways to make positive use of a card which either shows how it could be used, or objectively why it's not worth running even in gimmick games instead of assuming every duel is for tournament wins exclusively. A lot of people use casual cards JUST to see if we could pull off a rare 1/100 win with a 4k Ojama yellow, but every card has A strategy and outside of meme decks purely designed to make a bad card work, we can't always assume the opponent is going to draw the board wipes first draw that make many cards obsolete. So I appreciate this video not assuming EVERY duel will have the opponent draw the perfect hand and objectively focuses on why the player using the card has better options assuming the card DOES do it's intended job. Makes for much better videos than the "This card sucks cause it can't beat tears, so it's not worth using" some other videos do.

Especially in old YGO, where outside a handful of staples most cards did nothing. This means powerful removal like raigeki/dark hole or defensive options like Wabaku are unavailable. Leading to some desperate deck building choices So, in this format where you must choose between you 10th vanilla with 1400 atk or 2k def that will clog up your hand and a card that does almost nothing outside of stalling really badly, you choose the latter option.

Legendary Sword DID find a use. Somewhat. Kinda. In Duel Links, Joey has a skill that revolves around Phoenix and Immortal Phoenix Gearfried. When you drew Immortal, you could activate the Skill, putting Legendary Sword in the Graveyard and Salamandra set on your backrow, both from outside your deck. As such, you can use LS to Special Summon Immortal. Though the skill ALSO lets you Normal Summon Immortal without Tributing, so even then the effect is lessened.

I actually used to use Sword of the Soul Eater in a Gravity Bind/Level Limit Area B deck back in the day. The primary wincon was Gren Maju boosted by cards banished with Skull Lair for spot removal, but in the case that Skull Lair was removed and Gren Maju would only be like 1200 atk or so, equipping a Jerry Bean or Sonic Duck (or even Gagagigo under ALO) with a card like Sword of the Soul Eater would provide a good beater that could still battle under Gravity Bind. Due to the stally nature of the deck, it wouldn't be uncommon to have 2 normal monsters on board since spot removal was less common back then and if those normal monsters were already too small to beat over whatever monsters they had (let's say Summoned Skull), then they weren't useful anyway.

During the early days of yugioh I always felt like equips should have all had the inherent effect "if the attached monster would be destroyed by card effect, destroy this card instead". The minus one they caused in a meta full of fissures, dark holes, mirror force, and raigekis, on a card that was a dead draw during top deck situations (and frankly didn't give much stats) always felt too much, but if they offered effect destruction protection, perhaps it'd have been a different story. I always felt similar about sacrifice monsters as well, that the sacrificed monsters should have equipped to the monster and had that same effect... at least until Jinzo came around, but then if that had already always been how tribute monsters worked, he could have just had "tributed monster does not equip to him" added to his effect for balance. But legendary sword, for example, still would have been made obsolete quickly (assuming such a rule didn't impact how equips were designed in future sets as I do feel they realized they were bad and were always trying to see how far they could push them and might not have done so if they were more useful out of the gate) could have still been a useful protection even with that small stat boost.

3:30 Idea to make this card into a Zombie support card: _Pestilence of Undeath_ Equip Spell _Equip only to a Non-Zombie monster. The ATK/DEF of the equipped card becomes 0, and its effects are negated while this card is equipped to it. During the beginning of each phase, inflict 100 damage to the controller of the equipped card. If the equipped card leaves the field while this card is still equipped to it: Normal Summon/Set or Special Summon 1 Zombie monster to either player’s field, and if you do, shuffle this card into your deck._

I think paralyzing potion or whoever designed it rather is also the force behind the charmer deck archtype. I swear It's a bit dependent ongoing second, normally or knowing what your opponent has and some draw luck but you can just mine now everything

Equips are some of the best cards in the game.

To powercreep Paralyzing Potion in it's entirety and with similar effect... Mask of the Accursed. Equip spell, works on ALL monsters and in addition to stopping attacks it does 500 damage to the player on your standby. Trial of the Princesses, it's not very good or usable, but I suppose it kind of exists more for lore that Konami does nothing with.

I remember hating paralyzing potion when I played Duelist of the Roses That should be a list 10 cards that are good only in DotR

You should have mentioned their's a straight upgrade to Pestilence in Darkworld Shackles.

Cyber Shield deserves a special mention too. Only equipable by Harpie Lady and just a 500 ATK boost.

Can you make a video about what it takes for a normal monster to become viable? How much damage is the baseline for a lvl4 monster to become viable? 2000,2500,3000,4000,5000 how strong do normal monsters have to be to become playable

Still think seeing a top ten cards that only exist in the anime would be cool. Or maybe like a top ten archetypes that were more powerful in the anime and nerfed in real life.

trial is actually really good if you are using the pikeru/MoP burn deck.

Hmmm, it might be the case that no one in Master Duel has resolved Trial of the Princesses

Princess Curan's burn damage was halved in Duel Links, so it's the same damage as her weaker form.

Rusty engine sounds like a suicide vest. You strap it to your monster and have it attack knowing if you kill it then you're taking damage. You'd need to scare your opponent into thinking you have burn online just next turn so they waste interactions

Is there a best equip cards list? If not could you make it? I think that would be so Kool 😎

I was checking out my old cards, haven't collected in like 20 years, and I found soul eater among them. I think Dora of Fate is probably the worst card I found, though spirit Ryu is a canditate for a worst attack point gain list. But then theirs The Wicked Worm Beat. Pretty sure even teenage me would have realised how bad cards they are.

Trial Of The Princesses is a trial alrought, I reckon no one outside of 2005 playground YGO has resolved the summoning effect.

Imagine if Trial of the Princesses just added a 0 to the right to the values of the burn and life gain 👀

I legit had a deck based on the princesses in high school. Trial is absolutely the worst.
@ladyriethegoldendelmo54415 ай бұрын
for those weak spell cards at the beginning? what they could do is make stronger versions of it or do like where if u have it equip then destroy all enemies spells and traps card on the field and each one destroy the enemy loses 1000 lp or like special summon a warrior or something
