[@theharaldrsaga]

My headcanon for the first Yu-Gi-Oh arc is that Pegasus created the card game with fewer rules, not just allowing, but encouraging creativity because the monsters were real. He wanted to simulate that. However, Kaiba saw it as nothing more than a card game with fictional monsters, so he tightened the rules for logical thinkers. In D&D terms, Duelist Kingdom is 1st Edition, Battle City is 2nd Edition.

21:56 The manga actually came before the cards game and it wasn't intended to actually be something people would play. It was meant to be, as you said, a mix between Yugioh and Dungeons & Dragons, but they didn't plan on making the cards game until that part of the manga became so popular. Later, I'm guessing arround Battle City, the cards game actually started existing, forcing them to change the rules into a more traditional trading cards game rather than a dungeons & dragons cards game And why do I guess they came out arround Battle City? Well, that's when the rules become REALLY similar to the actual rules to the point the biggest differences are some spell cards (in the manga) became trap cards in the anime (The real reason why Yugi uses a trap card from his hand) or some rules, such as up to some point spell cards being activable during the opponent's turn (unless you know, they were meant to be trap cards)

I always call the Duelist Kingdom rules the "Chain Reaction" rules. I do X to Y and then Z occurs because of A, B and C. It uses relatively sound logic based on what's happening on the field and then you use relative physics to manipulate the battlefield and the monsters.

Was there anything actually tied to the D-Wheel (aside from crashing making you lose or not finish the match)? The only thing I can remember is that the D-Wheel could move faster when you got more speed counters, which effectively is just flair.

24:20 ironically enough, Konami made that scene an actual card. "Attack the Moon!" is a continuous spell card that lets you destroy a spell/trap your opponent controls whenever a Rock type monster you control changes battle positions EDIT: uhhh, regarding #2... contrary to the memes, Turbo Duels aren't QUITE as simple as Card Games on Motorcycles... the Speed World field spell that's automatically applied, the Speed Counters every standby phase, and the entire subset of Speed spell cards changes the game substantially since they have a Speed Counter requirement... Yugioh World Championship 2010 and 2011 for the Nintendo DS has you actually playing Turbo duels with Speed World 2, which allows for additional effects based on how many Speed Counters you got. it's crazy what kind of combos you can pull off if you know how to manage Speed Counters in those Turbo Duels

9:15 There are rules in the anime. You can only hold 1 action card at a time so you must play/discard what you pick up, there is no limit on how many you can use in a turn, they can be used during either player's turn, and each player has a time limit so they can't stall looking for cards. IRL labyrinth duleing sounds pretty damn cool! It's pretty similar to stratego. Your changes would make it very similar to Duelist of the Roses. Deckmasters were a nice twist. The tcg Force of Will actually uses this mechanic with a Ruler 'deckmaster' the key difference is that you don't lose if your summoned Ruler is destroyed 24:21 I love that they made this moment into a card, Attack the Moon! :3 Dungeon dice monsters is awesome the gba game was really good although the ai wasn't the smartest.

Personally one of my favorites isn't from the anime at all, but instead exists in a specific video game; Duelists of the Roses. It was another board-based format, and field magic worked VERY differently, IIRC; I believe field magic only affected monsters within range of where it was played. Plus there were certain kinds of terrain already in effect at the start of a duel, in various spaces, that could strengthen or weaken the monsters in those spaces.

Make a wipeout styled arena with obstacles, scenery and jungle gym like structures and as the video said spread action cards all around. then you can add another phase to each player,s turns where they have a set time (30 seconds or 1 minute) to run and climb around the arena to gather action cards and once that phase is over both players go to a duel table or whatever at the center of the stage to continue the card game with the obtained action cards. i can see it happening. edit: hell. with enough waivers and legal exemptions it can be a theme park attraction.

One type I really enjoyed was Rose Duels from the PS2 game "The Duelists of the Roses". Basically turned the game into a proper strategy game in which equipment and field cards were essential because equipment cards could be stacked infinitely and were permanent while field cards altered the type of field arround its activation field. extremely important to get a movement and atk advantage. you also had a deck master that was on the field at all times and basically acted like a King in chess. attacking the deck master is basically a direct attack to your life points and you can only place cards directly next to your deck master. meanwhile the deck masters movement was influenced by the landscape based on its type/attribute and effects that gave a card an advantage over a type were also valid when attacking the deck master so you have to carefully choose your deckmaster. and theres also a chess like alternative win condition: block all fields the enemy deck master could place cards on. if you control all of those fields you win.

[@roycereinhart-brown2549]

Also, I would be SO down for a battle Royal duel tournament! I have always wanted a city wide duel tournament where players would have to duel with duel disks! BUT a TRUE royal, where players start with 0 cards and have to scout around for either booster packs, starter decks, or epic rare cards would be so dope!!!

I really like the concept of action duels, but I can’t see a lot of duelists catching up to learn parkour and get fit to duel- I would love it! But that’s because I have been dueling sines the first starter decks came out - and I’ve been a parkour athlete since high school (2006-2010). I also love dueling with my duel disk, it’s sad that these iconic items aren’t actually a part of the TCG. My friends and I tried turbo dueling, we hooked up blue tooth headphones and called each other while we road around our neighborhood on bikes and our duel disks! THAT was some serious fun!

[@Rhakimdar]

I actually really hoped they would eventually make a game based on Arc Vs story. It could be RPG like with the 4 dimensions as setting with various plots and sidequests throughout each. Since multiple duels were outlined in the anime you could even have a few gangup situations and create some cool scenarios. Idk, I always thought it sounded cool.

[@Charley-ju6yg]

Here’s an idea for the battle royal dueling. What if Konami held some tournaments, and say the winner of the, like, 20 tournaments can participate. Then the whole thing takes place in something like a warehouse designed and furnitured for this, or some other building instead of some massive island. Then the players can have something like a loose piece of cloth on their wrist, and if you manage to snatch someone’s cloth they have to duel you with you deciding who goes first. They have food and everything and just goes about in maybe 24 hours, where at the end the one that has won the most duels win. They could also implement something where if you openly try and grabs someone’s cloth and fail, there’s a punishment. You know, just so people aren’t just running around playing catch for 24 hours, but have to be strategic and on guard for people grabbing their cloth. There can just be tables scattered around for people to play on when caught

[@BladerJuggs]

Make it up as you go is completely possible within these bounds. You have two duelists and a duel master. A bare bones set of basic rules are given. The duel master is in control of the rules though. If a duelist wants to do something not expressly started in the given rules, he tells the duel master what he is trying and the duel master decides if it is A. possible and B. the effect the action has. Any duelist can argue for any effect at any time, but the duel master rulings are final for that game. And yes things will change duel master to duel master, but that would be part of the fun of it.

22:22: That explanation is wrong, you know? People constantly use that to defend Yugioh, and actually, it IS a Valid Point, but the Anime managed to Overcome this, and reach the Limit of such an Valid Point. Yes, there's a Limit. But more importantly, it never stopped: Season 2, Season 3, Season 4, Season 5, Stuff gets made up, Rules get estabilshed in an Episode and Broken in the VERY SAME EPISODE.

What about Capsule Monsters, as I think that would make a great spinoff game, and I did tried the Dungeon Dice Monsters in Real World, but I didn’t like it that much. They also made something called “Dragon Duels”, where you have a Dragon Shooter based on a Dragon from Yu-Gi-Oh! To battle, I like the idea, but I am not sure if it is still around, but I think it will make a great spin off game for Yu-Gi-Oh! Too, as you have a Blue Eyes attack on her arm and use it to use projectiles to deal damage to your opponents Dragon. But other than that, that was a great video as always

Duelist kingdom rules (AKA shenanigans) is awesome in the sense that are based of the manga. This is relevant because Takahashi's favorite game is Dungeons and Dragons, so the rules of Magic and Wizards (Duel Monsters' original name) are really similar to D&D's but with trading cards. Also, I think it's awesome that even though the focus of the story completely switched from games in general to only Duel Monsters, the final arc of the story (Millenium World) was based on an RPG game between Yami Yugi and Yami Bakura. So Takahashi got to end his story in his own terms with his favorite game.
