Zoodiac (2017) vs. Dracopals (2016) | Cross-Banlist Cup 2019

[@LukesYuGiOhChannel]

Whoever went 1st won, it was one of those lol. Nekroz 3-1.

[@pOp-jc4jv]

Luke's Yu-Gi-Oh! Channel Zoo could have won game 4 despite going 2nd

[@MofizIA]

Next cup should decide its victory by 2 consecutive wins This is just another go first to win match

[@Lithium2300]

Hmm, that's an interesting one :o

[@maskedduelist1380]

I second the motion.

[@joshuapemberton4885]

@Mr Nitpick it really doesn't need it. The more popular version of dracopal didnt even play it lol

[@me-vx4wi]

That's a pretty bad idea in all honesty for a couple of reasons - It makes those legendary 2-0 comebacks impossible. I honestly like seeing those and it would be a shame for them to go away. - It can drag certain matches out far longer then they should be. There are several matchups in this cup where the person who goes first is probably going to win, and having this will force a bunch of unnecessary stalemates - It makes keeping track of score in a group match a complete hassle. Let's say we have a group where we have 3 Decks that each won 2 Matches, and a 4th one that hasn't won any. Now let's say Deck A beat Decks B and D, Deck B beat decks C and D, and Deck C beat decks A and D. How are we supposed to determine a tiebreaker if losses no longer mean anything? And before you say this is unrealistic a very similar situation happened in Group F this tournament (Burning Abyss beat all 3 other Decks, but the other 3 all beat another Deck and lost to another like a rock paper scissors match. Using this system would obviously make Burning Abyss 1st, but how do we determine who is 2nd in a fair way?) - Let's be real many Yu-Gi-Oh matches are often determined by who wins the inital coin toss at the start. It just doesn't really feel natural to change that.

[@MofizIA]

@@me-vx4wi this cup is not about legendary comebacks or about scores. We wanna see which deck goes the best, and going first just has too much impact on the ACTUALLY exciting matches. And if you are so obsessed with the scores you can easily make a system that gives them based on the number of duels survived

[@DemocaAcid]

ahh, came home tired af from school, was gonna sleep then i got this notification. damn you lithium

[@vaggelisv3091]

Damn those Zoodiacs, I forgot how good they were

[@tcenzo6722]

Yeah, unfair af

[@AKingofBacon]

Fluffals will have a hard time against Unicore and Valkyrus, but they'll probably put up a better fight than most people would expect. Nekroz 3-2

[@thepotato513]

Who thought Barrier was an okay card to print? Also, who thought Monkeyboard was an okay card to print?

[@Lithium2300]

🤣

[@infiniteloop6924]

Solemn Scolding on Dimensional Barrier in game 4 was delicious.

[@VhiddenV]

lol @ people who thought it would be 3-0, these 2 decks actually existed in the same format iirc (except for certain cards), and i actually preferred pendulum over Zoodiac.

[@Acsilverfish360]

Fluffals will not win the next match, but I BELIEVE IN THE HEART IN THE STUFFED ANIMALS! 3-2 Nekroz

[@MrSunshiney]

Has there ever been consideration for like a low tier cup? Like Hazy Flames, Cloudians, Pure Fabled, Ice Barrier... etc.

[@manikenwarrior]

perfect example of coin flip yugioh...who ever wins and goes first wins the match. nekroz is going to slaughter fluffals

[@frankwest5388]

Unicorn is too much to handle for fluffals. 3-1 Also, if not zoomed in, your profile picture kind of looks like Austin Powers.

[@justacomment4847]

Nekroz, clapping fluffals cheeks since 2015. nekroz 3-1

[@herbertcharlesbrown1949]

Why not the zodiac deck with Fusion Substitude and Norden?

[@otangakudyokeman7124]

feels sooo sad for Dracopals =( and the issue they got eliminated ... D.Barrier was a mistake ... and the issue is that Zoos are the only deck that gets benefit from it =( if only other decks can use it but NOPE RIP =( I really want Dracopals to go ahead as well for nekroz ... RIP 3 - 1 for Nekroz next match Thanks for the video ma boi

[@admontblanc]

Without D Barrier Zoo would just be steamrolled by pendulum decks.

[@otangakudyokeman7124]

@@admontblanc definitely

[@billyclint2232]

Do you think pendulum zoo can be brought back in 2020

[@TCGSyphax]

4:25 playing around mekk knights POG

[@low-ratedduelists9224]

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think tornado dragon was released after Zoos power cards got banned

[@daraenmetaknight8148]

I think it was realeased after rat got semilimited in march 2017; not after zoodiac was killed in september 2017

[@Lithium2300]

It's legal 😊

[@krakenblast2]

Why do you always go second in the first match?

[@rueblie2627]

Fluffal really didn’t get a good group, let’s say Nekroz 3-1 though 3-0 seems possible

[@mikawa1314]

The problem for Fluffals is that they are a go second and OTK deck, but allowing Nekroz to go first might not be a good idea.

[@ObsoletePerson]

People give Pendulums a lot of crap for a massive Pendulum Summon but I think the big problem is the self-destruction effects. Plushfire, Pendulum Sorcerer, Ariadne, and the Pendulum Magicians got as far as they did because of the sheer amount of advantage they got from being popped. Wavering Eyes wouldn't be half as big of a problem as it was if it weren't for those effects.

[@lucasalarcon3230]

Renember the mechanic will be horse with SS trigger effect imagine 5 Effect because every turn because you pendulum summon, destruction was actually the better option to balance the mechanic

[@rumovonzamonien]

Damn if only Dracopals would have started... gg though. Also Nekroz probably going to win 3-1, Unicore to prevent their big fusions from poppoing of and Valkyrus shuts down their entire OTK strategy.

[@KeertikaAndFallenTree]

For a moment I thought it would be a rematch of Zoo vs Pepe when I saw Monleyboard on the thumbnail, close enough I guess. For the next macth... I can't see Nekroz lose this, like come on. Fluffal won't want to go first, all that Nekroz need is Unicore on field + Valkyrius/Gungnir (does this version have Gungnir?) in hand. And if they start, I don't see any disruption for them to have on field. They may steal one win but I think Nekroz will destroy them in the end.

[@mostdefinitely7536]

Basically, “Ok game 5, let’s see if pendulum can-and the opponent has dimensional barrier gg well-played.” Basically pictured the Grandpa Simpson gif haha

[@sophachord]

Nekroz better win its my favorite deck to play these days 3-0

[@inciaradible7144]

Good match, but expected outcome in such a matchup. Next well... uh, what's Fluffal gonna do? 3-0 Nekroz.

[@inv4651]

Ahhh the going 1st balette. Zoodiac ftw Nekroz 3-1 definitely. I mean Trish ravaging the plushies and they can´t otk because of Valk as well as Unicore.

[@averagegatsby29]

8:00 Zoo can win here iirc: Chakanine back Ramram, overlay Drident to pop Ram and revive Boarbow, Tiger a whiptail onto Boarbow, Broadbull for a second Whiptail, attack directly for 2400 Good match though, dbarrier stronk

[@me-vx4wi]

Next Match Nekroz 3-1. Fluffals don't really have much of a chance here.

[@jtalkalot19]

I'm still upset that fluffals got screwed over by its group. They were never going to get out of the group i hope next year they at least get a chance

[@Truth82189]

Damn those were good times the Nostalgia 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@SaintBriars]

i really want fluffals to win but its not in the cards

[@Thecurseofsanity]

I don't know much about Fluffals other than they OTK with big beefy fusions, so I'll say Nekroz w/ Unicore and Valk will have the advantage

[@VhiddenV]

If Dracopals were playing Maxx C and Dimensional Barrier they could of stole a few games too.

[@verbalengine95]

Meh, Zoo. I want fluffals to blow through with an outrageous otk, but nekroz just has too many ways of staying alive with Trish/Valk in hand. Nekroz 3-1

[@unidentified4122]

Im gonna vote nekroz because when they eventually get forced to go first they'll just establish unicorn and protect the castel and unless fluffals open the kaiju its a free win

[@eduardosantillan3048]

Nekroz takes the next one with an easy 3-1

[@samskott2344]

Go first to win. Crazy that a powerhouse like Dracopals may not make it out of group stages. And unless Fluffals pulls off a miracle, they probably wont. That being said, Nekroz 3-0

[@Broadbull-q4f]

Great video

[@frankdamsy9715]

Fluffal is gonna hav their otks stopped by Valk. Nekroz 3-1

[@GamerGhostRider]

God, I hate Zoo so much. Nekroz 3x1 next game, even though I wish it was the other way around.

[@willch7481]

play perforpals magician combo tier -1. its the best deck ever i think. (3 monkey, 3 dracoslayer, 3 magician, 3 wavering, 3 wizard, 3 ptolemaeus, 3 shock master and 3 super strawberry and all the other clowns unlimited) the hell on earth XD

[@Thatoneguy48147]

Dimensional Barrier clutch like always. Nekroz hopefully takes the next match 3-1

[@emildokle261]

Dimensional Barrier was a mistake

[@adri8382]

Twin twister and maxx c isn t good against nekroz. Also unicore shut down fluffals atk boost and removal effs Nekroz 3 - 1 (number 82 is great if it doesn t get baited)

[@ryanterrero690]

Zoooooooo love that deck so much

[@VicRTH]

*"Insert the MAH GoingFirst win match comment"* Nekroz 3-2, Fluffals could have a chance if Hope Harbinger arrives at the right moment.

[@lucasflaming5330]

I'm pretty sure nekroz take this 3-1 which means that all we need left is group H oh boy.

[@Juan-zs6jt]

It is gonna be a 3-0. Nekroz doesn't care about Fluffals.

[@lucasteixeira5611]

I didn't watched the video yet, but I bet it's gonna be 3-0 for zodiac

[@prod1gy305]

Lucas Teixeira Lol nobody predicted a clean sweep for Zoo

[@smileywater]

Who were the idiots that thought zoodiac would win 3-0?

[@astr0zr]

Nekroz 3-0 because Nekroz does Nekroz things to ED reliant decks

[@unholygrim2097]

Nekroz 3-2

[@dbomba]

Imo Zoodiacs were overrated. Ok consistency, one card 3 XYZ, etc... But realistically talking, 1 pop on some low attack monsters wasn't that much of a board. The MVP of every duel I've seen with Zoo involved was D Barrier. I can't really understand how it became Tier 0. Spyrals were (and are) really strong and have lots of negates and card advantage, same for PePe but Zoo?

[@StellariaEclipse]

I knew it would be 3-2

[@charlesseward7071]

That was some good shit nekroz take the next one 3-1

[@RodriguezFC28]

Zoo was one of the dumbest mechanics out there.

[@edymiguel4247]

Unicore and Valk will cripple Flufflas Nekroz 3-1, I expect an OTK in one game

[@allpowerful555]
