Why Are A Bunch Of Frogs The Game's Best Control Deck? [ Frogs ] [ Yu-Gi-Oh Archetypes Explained ]

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

Idea to make a “Slime Toad” retrain: _Slime the Frog_ (WATER) Level 2 Aqua/Flip/Tuner/Effect (This card is always also a “Jam” card.) _FLIP: Special Summon 1 “Slime”, “Frog” or “Jam” monster from your hand or GY._ _You can banish up to 4 other “Slime”, “Frog” and/or “Jam” monsters from your hand, field or GY (Quick Effect): Until the end of next turn, The original name, ATK, DEF, and/or Effects of all “Slime the Frog”s you own become your choice of those banished monster’s (even if it leaves the field). You can only use this effect of “Slime the Frog” once per turn._ ATK/700 DEF/500

I remember feeling a disturbance in the Force when Swap Frog got banned. Like thousands of meta players crying out in terror, then silence

[@whitequartz5289]

People talk about the idea of a Yugioh Un-Set (A type of Joke set that Magic the Gathering makes from time to time) and the one thing I want in that set is Name: Lilypad Normal Spell Activate one of the following effects. - Add a “Frog” card from your deck to your hand (except “Frog the Jam”) - Add one “Toad” card from your deck to your hand (except “Slime Toad”)

[@jasonbolding3481]

or hear me out "including frog the jam"

[@Dinkbass]

Please keep magic the gathering far the fucm away from yugioh. I quit that shit amongst all the crossover bs. Please don't ruin this game aswell

[@whitequartz5289]

@@Dinkbass Any card game can have good ideas before or even while it makes a lot of divisive or poor ones. You take inspiration from the good ideas and take the poor ideas as something to avoid. It’s completely hypothetical anyway, and something Konami will probably never do, I just wanted to bring up an idea for funny card design.

t.a.d.p.o.l.e. is an attempt at localizing the japanese pun in the name in japanese tadpole is written as otamajakushi, and in the cards name they used characters that *read* as that, but that actually mean something else. what do they mean, you ask? they wrote it as 悪魂邪苦止, with each character meaning, in order, evil / soul / vice / pain / stop. so someting like stop the evil souls and suffering

Of the hundreds of yugioh archetypes , Frogs is at the very top of my " decks that I want more support" list!

[@gailengigabyte6221]

Well isn't this video froggily amazing... *distant ribbit* I MESSED IT UP!!!

[@Thomas-rl5pq]

Thank you for not saying, "they rabbit for your(her) pleasure." I've heard that line too many times from swap frog players.

[@bidoof6458]

I appreciate the Froggy reference, did not expect to see that. Just to clarify, for the Treeborn Frog, it got erratae'd and you can no longer e-con it away to have it revive the same turn.

[@Blaze4299]

after your opponent takes the card that they negated with toad "Hippity hoppity, your sh!t's my property"

[@jonmcknight18]

Satorl Marsh's night theme is a good choice for this archetype since frogs are know to live in marshlands and you can't go wrong with xenoblade music.

[@rileyanthony]

I would love it he did a video on barians and c 101-107 numbers and the barians seventh cards and rank up magic cards as well

for the branded cards nova already did them its on the albaz lore is both a lore video and card analysis

[@YuGoTheSpeedSter]

@@user_lost5507 ok

[@Petsinwinter2]

If you're playing Coral Anemone (and any WATER deck should consider it) you can weaponize your WATER lock by also playing Zealantis. Because Zealantis says _you_ summon your opponents monsters it banished, if you can't summon back non-WATER monsters, well... They stay banished.

[@albertorodrigomolinasortiz471]

I like to tell people I blame Frogs for the ban of my dear Fishborg Blaster for over a decade, but inside I like to think I am to blame, with my original idea Coelacanth Exodia Quasar OTK deck.

[@darkjak565]

I've got a lot of PTSD from Toadally Awesome and Swap Frog from back in the day, but I'll steel myself for this so I can understand just why I lost so much those years ago

[@joeywarren60]

Small suggestion from my own Frog List- Dewdark of the Ice Barrier. Since I run the field spell, it becomes a nasty direct attacker to speed the game up. Plus, it's a tuner, so synchros are on the table.

[@VampirePrinceKRS]

oh they put him in a lot of Frog decks that showed up in the 5Ds DS games. along with Gravity Bind to both lockdown & overpower you quickly.

[@23gameoverlord]

It's frogs! It's frogs, it's all frogs! Honestly I agree with Nova that Frogs need there offensive support release, especially with that Belezza frog idea being like King of the S.S. I also think there should be more frogs that count as Des Frog, and make use of Des Croaking more effective, as well as more cards like it.

[@Lunax3-xs2ji]

Love your vids! Have you considered maybe doing one of these for Earth machine?

[@GoldenNovaYugioh]

I made a Train one a while back, which I think is currently the closest thing I have to the EARTH Machine Pile!

[@SonaSoniaSona]

Frog fractions is so good, nice reference

[@VampirePrinceKRS]

I feel like it's important to mention the Frogs were used by a character in the anime too. even if she did end up being a one off character. Princess Rose. I bet a lot of people forgot about her. I know I sure did before rewatching GX.

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

2:51 imagine if the TCG, instead of reprinting the cards mentioning "frog the jam", they made a TCG excusive card that has very good effects supporting the archetype, but it is not searcheable due to being "frog the jam"

[@ValianceGames]

I will never stop complaining about the "if/when" timing clause. Instead of reconciling the two, they decided the make them mutually exclusive. There are some archetypes that dont even work right thanks to this ruling. Granted, there are a good number of skills that would be broken if it didn't miss timing, but I don't believe this was something considered early enough in to be a proper balancing point. So rough. Instead of it being this niche nuance that Yugioh has, it's a cumbersome wording that actively worsens the cards that have it. Brain hurts.

[@goodpeople25]

I think it's appropriate for your headache that you didn't specify that when matters for optional effects that of course are often mentioned quite later in the effect text and is a lack of text.

They can't ban that stupid mochi frog in the tcg soon enough. And yes i'm using its ocg name because its tcg name is too good for it.

my guess is unifrog is has a horn and magical like coloring cuz it is a magical fey version of a frog
