As a fiend enthusiast, let me help out. (write as i watch sorry in advance for any repeats) - @1:55 really the BEST pick banishing Yama. Then you even went for the best Super Poly target. This shows off my favorite Yugioh skill, "fundamental game knowledge" since you identified on the spot the problematic cards despite not knowing the deck. - If Mudragon was "2 of the same Type but different Attribute" instead of the opposite it would be as busted as Garura. DON'T GIVE THEM IDEAS!!!!! - @5:30 *_mini runt_* As a judge I really hate having to deal with "foreign" cards because MOST players describe them to the opponent leaving out disadvantageous info, for example, "it's a Stratos" when it can add from GY as well meaning the opponent could use Belle but didn't know. "Misrepresenting the gamestate", "Honest mistake" or "opponent should have used Neuron instead" are all rabbit holes I would rather avoid. *_End of mini runt_* - @7:10 Garura needs different names anyway. This can be very important to remember. - @8:20 about siding, Yubel can easily be a Shifter deck as well so it was a bad idea, Belle on the other hand is 4/5/6th Ash since all summon from GY as well. Veiler/Imperm/Mourner are huge, the first 2 on the initial normal summon, the 2nd exclusively for Spirit (main deck) or the first extra deck play (typically Yama that activated so guaranteed no Sharvara in hand to dodge, Muck in desperate situations).
- Another note here, you saw Almiraz in their Extra. If they open with Spirit Gates it's useless to preemptively Veiler/Imperm Lotus or even waste it on Beckonick, instead you should keep it for Spirit. It would pay off big time though if they aren't on Almiraz or they didn't have Gates. - @9:45 Correct.... Lotus, Grinder Golem, Sacred Beasts and most 0/0 DARK Fiends were played by Yubel in the GX anime 3rd Season (as well as Super Poly) so that's why they work together. - Now for a quick heads up: --------- Lotus is like "Rikka Petal" + "Rikka Princess", giving the deck a special summon (that will search) from the deck, then in EP reviving itself to be a monster negate WITH OG YUBEL ON FIELD. --------- Nightmare Pain is like Konkon giving you advantage every turn + nasty battle effect forcing attacks on Yubels (play defense position if you can't out them) and redirecting battle damage on top of the burn every Yubel except for Spirit does (for example if you SS Fen in attack and it gets veilered, you will attack a Yubel and lose 2400 LP battle damage + 2400 LP burn). -------- Eternal Favorite is the "Super Poly trap" but it can only be used IF OG YUBEL is on the field. Then it can use any "Yubel" monster for the fusion.
- @12:00 Shyama goes to the bottom of the deck. - @12:55 Belle on Spirit would have still cut off the Super Poly trap + Lotus monster negate. Again it seems weird but remember it can use any "Yubel" monster yet it NEEDS OG YUBEL on the field to activate (this is the most common illegal play of the matchup). Lotus also needs OG Yubel to revive itself. TLDR; Yubel is a "Yubel" monster BUT a "Yubel" monster is not Yubel. - @13:50 You can guess 2/3 set cards. 1 is the Eternal Favorite, 2nd is likely the Unchained Trap Sharvara would set (I assume you know what they do already). - @16:20 I assume the opponent is playing around both TTT. Rage could link away a token for Dharc (or Anguish but they don't play it) to not lose the body (would have done it on Sack summon anyway then banish Birth), it could add Spirit or any other fiend from GY since it was destroyed for recovery, and Lotus could negate the effect entirely then pop Yubel (and this would have been huge because you would Belle the Yubel float + trap would turn off since OG Yubel left the field) - Note here about the Unchained Souls linking away your stuff. Your monster leaves the field by a "game mechanic" (link summon) so effects like "left the field by an opponent's card effect" will not activate (Raye in GY when linking away a Sky Striker link), unlike effects like "left the field by an opponent's card" (for example Mirrorjade board wipe, in this case the monster link summoned such as SP is said "opponent's card" and not Rage)
- @18:50 About the 2nd effect of Eternal Favorite. In addition to the "OG Yubel" restriction i mentioned before, the effects of continuous cards that have an activation requirement that isn't on the CARD activation but on bulleted effects like this CANNOT ACTIVATE immediately when the card is set. They need to be already face-up. This was a heads-up play by the opponent to have it immediately live. A direct contrast is the first bullet effect of the same card that can be used in the same chain as the CARD activation of Favorite while it was previously set. TLDR; CARD activation vs EFFECT activation. - @22:40 your choice paid off. Regarding Nib, you should always summon it in defense because Nightmare Pain can easily OTK you with 2 attacks onto Nib (Yubel + Fusion Yubel) - @26:45 In hindsight, you shouldn't have popped Chronicle with Pegasus. I assume they had another Evenly in hand since they set 1 already, and an Imperm would trade with both of your negates. Chronicle is a great payoff but requires a good hand to utilize. GGs, i hope you learn this matchup because I'm sure it will become relevant in the future (and when LeDe comes i dare say Yubel will be at least tier 2)
Whatever content is easier for you is best. Cause if you’re happy and enjoying it, then I’m good with whatever you put out

EPISODE 100 BABY LET’S GO! AND IT’S BEST DECK?!?! congrats winter!
Love these POV games! Keep them up ✊
POV: you don't want to read your opponent's cards because its "just" Yubel.
Happy 100th episode 🥳🥳
bro that raichu mat is goated
Congrats on ep 100
Thanks!
on ur thoughts in game 3: You can´t normal Ash, cause u allready normaled Unicorn
In addition to Eternal Favorite, they would need th Yubel itself. It wont work if they use "Yubel" monster as material for fusion
