Of course, Yugioh rules A. don't let you make a one-card deck and B. would cause you to deck out during setup if you tried. As opposed to _Chain of Memories,_ which just gives you a one-card hand and lets you shuffle your discard pile back into the deck.

For anyone who's wondering what Pluto is normally supposed to do, He's supposed to retrive some of your cards if you lose too many. Using a sleight will remove the first card in it for the rest of the battle unless you use an item card. Pluto was added as a safeguard if you completely screw yourself over. But considering this challenge only uses one card... yeah.

[@TheWizardMus]

Thank you

[@XSniper74184]

Listen, he might be doing nothing but at least he's trying okay? Pluto's still a gud boi 13/10.

[@asthmeresivolisk3129]

Some other interesting properties of Pluto. He occurs more regularly when you have less cards remaining in your deck, capping out at 10 or fewer cards. Additionally he can, on occasion, find moogle orbs and hp orbs for you. If you create a 10 card deck he is most likely to find moogle orbs. But if you want to farm moogle orbs my recommendation is to skip pluto and either go to Agrabah or Holloween Town. In Agrabah you can use the Aladdin friend card, each attack he does will drop moogle orbs from enemies. And in Holloween Town many rooms have a ton of interactable objects that can drop moogle orbs and cards due to all the tombstone props scattered around. Special mention goes to the Treasure Rooms.

I recently realized how much I’d love to see you try a level 1 run of 358/2 Days. Mainly because, since levels are panels you have to add to your deck, not only can you just not equip levels, but every level you don’t equip is a slot you can use for something else like an ability or item. In fact, given a lot of challenge missions have level caps, that’s something to keep in mind even for casual players.

[@arrowsden]

I've heard of people doing that, and level 1 runs of Days (especially on Proud mode) just devolve into mindless grinding to get a bunch of magic casts to get through the game. May not be the best idea.

That sleight of Vexen's that has the long startup time is called Freeze. He makes the entire screen turn white, and if you don't Dodge Roll at that exact moment, Sora gets frozen in a block of ice and you have to mash buttons to break out. Marluxia's Phase 2 super-duper sleight is Drop Shot - he jumps high in the air and slams down, cracking the floor.

Your notes against Riku in the last battke while fighting without Donald and Goofy remind me of when I first discovered that the bosses follow the same rules as the player. In the fight against Lexaeus, both on GBA and console, I noticed he liked using sleights a lot more than other bosses, and his high damage compounded with this aggression made him terrifying. After 5 minutes of dodging and fighting, he was stuck with only two stocked cards and never completed the set for a special attack, so he was down to just wild swinging for the remainder of the match.

I don't even bother with certain enemies or bosses once I have the late-game Sonic Blade, Ragnarok, and Lethal Frame. Once you get Marluxia's card, the last 2 fights against him are basically walking cutscenes. My cheese against Marluxia 2 was as follows: Ragnarok (sleights of 9 work best) spam with Double Sleight against the first phase, Ragnarok spam with Attack Bracer until its effects wear off, then Lethal Frame spam (sleights of 25-27 work best) with Double Sleight (make sure to bring Elixirs and stock them with two 8's or 9's!). Repeat until Marluxia's nonexistence is revoked. 😎

It's a good thing that Riku's story Reverse/Rebirth makes you unable to to edit your deck, giving you an already made deck for every world you enter, otherwise Champ's personal hell would be even more hellish. Unless, of course, Gamechamp decides to stick with one card and then reload.

I had to Google Pluto cards after watching this cause I NEVER have seen them before and was dumbfounded at how you got so many of them.

[@MizutamariVT]

So if I'm remembering correctly, the reason slates are gone quicker is actually because in Re:CoM combos always come in 3s. When you use your singular card there's a delay so you have time to continue your combo. Slates cannot be combo'd and are considered a full combo in themselves which is why you can pre-charge 3 cards in a slate. The game has no reason to wait for you to continue your combo cause you're not allowed to.

The Ballroom Dance was not what I was expecting today. My lungs hurt from laughing.

[@bladert2322]

Gamechamp you are completely INSANE to do this challenge!! I now have complete respect for you after seeing the complete absurdity of a challenge you've done for the video. Keep on doing great work, can't imagine what you'll do next

[@vampyrecat4458]

I think using an eldritch ritual to revive a corpse is the most insane strategy required in Gamechamp history....... so far that is

[@IamaPERSON]

Nah, that’s just an average Tuesday.

[@segadoeswhatnintendont]

It's more sane than actually attempting larxsieine 2 with 1 card

[@fakename3010]

I love the "ohhhh noooooo" whenever there's something that affects your decks

[@ArcRay20]

i swear, how is it that these self inflicted challenges always manage to have one of those situations of "this basic game mechanic you have come to rely upon is now removed for just this battle"? and the crazy part is that its always a game mechanic thats more than likely completely overlooked due to its simplicity, compared to how much else you have to work with under normal circumstances. also that Marluxia spin-tech is fucking hilarious.😆

[@Candiedbanana]

That crying/laughing she's doing after the Riku battle is how I felt beating the game with a normal deck 😅😅😢

[@triforceofcourage100]

29:41 this is by far the funniest kingdom hearts related anything I have ever had the pleasure to witness

[@milk_choc7889]

Your videos always appear at the most unexpected times for me, and they're always a treat. I hope 2023 is a good year for you!

[@chickennugget6684]

This seems like the truest test of patience and discipline

[@noahgray1962]

the way you have been consistently responding to comments and questions, even all this time later, is insanely respectable! props to you for that gamerchamp, you’re awesome

[@isenokami7810]

The “Days challenge” made me oddly happy. Namely that you can just skip all the cutscenes to get the Chain of Memories bonuses. I actually like 358/2 Days the game, but I do not like the movie version, and those bonuses kinda make you watch the movie version.

[@RamChop451]

This video is amazing, I feel like I know these bosses so much more. That ball room dancing with Marluxia was literally jaw dropping

[@ZPokemonfanA]

Would you say that this is among the top 5 hardest challenges you've ever done?

[@ronniemarshall7684]

21:00 i haven't laughed out loud at a youtube video this hard in so long and the "quite frankly, silly." fckng ENDED me

[@Fannintendociccio1]

OMG the days joke combo at 17:30 is absolutely hilarious

[@Sylocat]

For those who haven't played either game, what was that about?

[@Fannintendociccio1]

@@Sylocat so let's recap the order of the games. Kh1-CoM-kh2-days and somewhere after that is rechain of memories. Days is currently only playable on the DS. The days she is talking about is the cutscenes compilation of Days in higher definition for the KH games compilation she is playing. So basically she was doing a big song and dance about having "beaten" watching a series of cutscenes by skipping manually each and every one of them (because watching them unlocks special rewards in ReCoM)

[@nabe4320]

Holy crap, this is extraordinaty. I thank you for your service, this was truly a trip to watch

[@ACommonHero2]

Pictured: Gamechamp doing everything in her power to avoid playing any of the Kingdom Hearts Games between 2 and 3. (No, but seriously, this video was awesome and and extremely impressive).

[@tako002]

I love how the run is explained like we're actually gonna do it.

[@lewis9s]

5:26 I remember when I played this game for the first time and didn’t understand how it worked so I just spammed the triple card and ended up with a few cards and found this battle really difficult.

[@commentdouchery2838]

Dear God, this whole video just reminded me of the first time I fought Vexan as Riku on the GBA version. We both Slighted our decks down to nothing and it turned into a game of endurance where I had to painstakingly dodge behind him and deal my 3 hit combo, then hold out until I could reload. That one experience I can confidently say is nothing compared to running a one card deck. Holy shit, dude.

[@thestargamers3325]

I am genuinely impressed that you were able to avoid Marluxia's Doom sleight. I thought for sure that was going to be a run killer

[@SHADOMEGA7569]

god you can hear the struggle she went through just to defeat Riku 4 as she laughs in relief, kudos to those that watched it live

[@cuddlebug9699]

"And star ball room dancing!" I laughed way too hard at this

[@eshasunrise]

Rest in Peace Gamechamp's Tendons. It wasn't worth it, but it is still impressive.

[@RichConnerGMN]

nice pfp

[@RamZaes]

The Marluxia dance was amazing 😂

[@Xpwnxage]

CoM is my favorite Kingdom Hearts game and this is one of the best challenge runs I've ever seen. Incredible job. I mean seriously, this was insanely difficult, you have my respect madam.

[@MrLateXD]

This reminds me of how I didn't quite understand the game mechanics as a kid and ended up having 1-3 cards at the end of most boss battles due to using sleights all the time. The only time I used single cards was to perform a card break. I distinctly remember beating Marluxia with a random Keyblade card, Cure and Dumbo. Since my combo started with the attack card, the other two never left the deck. Some time later I replayed the game and by then I could understand English better so I finally realized what I was doing wrong. Still one of my favorite GBA games as well as my favorite Kingdom Hearts game.

[@kappadarwin9476]

Keyblade a cure and a Dumbo sounds very funny when said outloud.

[@Rudie95]

This was insane. The Game Devs surely would be incredibly impressed, thank you for your hard work and many, many, many hours of frustration to bring us this.

[@connorl0204]

“And quite frankly, very silly” Very underrated line.

[@retrowild6778]

This is genuinely one of the greatest things you have ever pulled off. I love your videos and they inspire me, as silly as that might sound. You rock!

[@FourZ4]

I love hearing the organization names said wrong every time kingdom hearts is played also, mad respect for this run. I love this series of games, but I'm not that suicidal to do this run

[@invidofinp1828]

@TMVGemini24 (Pee) It's a running joke.

[@seanb3226]

I'm glad you're still making videos, I remember watching you years and years back haha.

[@happybloxia2989]

this guy's patience has no boundaries

[@JacklynBurn]

21:27 "Donald and Goofy are *drowning themselves*-" Me: WHAT "-in breakup ice cream..." Me: oh thank god

[@tommykazoo6188]

Gamechamp is insane she's finally played a card game with 1 card.

[@deltanoiro]

As someone who really enjoyed the concept of this game but only played through it once with sora because I was so put off by how grindy and difficult the last third of this game was, I personally wouldn't wish this challenge on anyone. Truly an impressive showing here.

[@ReikuYin]

When I heard 1 card deck I knew it would be 0. It's the only possible way as any sleght used would be horrible to have to deal with dodging. I was not expecting the cards of all things to be so difficult. Just shows how tough something can be when you can't use the system. Edit: Wait.... That CARDS were difficult. That's.... Hilarious. Of COURSE cards would be hard in a card game.

[@Graeylyn]

I watched that Riku 4 victory live and it was incredible. Fantastic work Gamechamp

[@soulfi7734]

I like how she explains the strategies with "you need to X" like anyone would be masochist enough to do this god forsaken challenge 💀💀

[@dazedouji]

This one was a roller coaster to watch (and I'm sure infinite roller coasters to record). Well done!

[@TachyonicSea793.2]

I love how gamechamp makes challenge videos like they are tutorials

[@cj_skywalker]

I enjoyed this video because it gave me good boss tips for when I go back to platinum trophy this game because I have to play it on Proud Mode and that's brutal. Knowing the attack patterns of the final bosses is vital.
