I've actually just started going to my locals too after picking up the albaz strike structure decks, not gonna lie it's kind of intimidating being the only woman there but I'm hoping I can eventually end up beating some of them! 💪🏻 going to try and get some practice there before I actually officially enter though
It's a shame so few woman play the game, because now it gets intimidating for them to start at times too :( I do suggest just joining the tournament though, you'll get your practise, experience and such. Gotta start somewhere and it's okay to not do great from the start :) If there is anything I can do to help you get going make sure to let me know, it's always nice seeing new people get into the game!
@@11wildy63 going through combos and stuff and teaching what to handtrap would be quite helpful, also how certain cards interact with each other, I'm not exactly sure?
I get you, I can’t get to put myself on going to locals because I feel everyone staring at me and I feel intimidated, I’m glad some girls do put up the courage to go, good for you! 🥰
I'm in the same shoes lol 😆 I'm also a woman who just picked up 3 of these bad boys with the intentions of hitting up my locals for the first time. I'm practicing with my deck on YGOPRO and also practicing using Master Duel. I am a huge introvert so the whole reason I wanted to get into the game was to give myself a reason to have to be social and meet new people. It'll probably take me awhile to get up the courage, but I'm ready to start my journey!
Crazy match with a complete meta salad, Ryan you are insane at playing this game, been here since first scratch 1 and never regretting it, you the reason I didn’t quit the game, this summer when I will finally be out of exams I will play locals for the first time, you so inspirational man
I really appreciate the simultaneous diversity and also familiarity that is shared between all your different series. One of the few yugitubers that I'll watch like every single bit of content on and responsible for gettin me back into the game in a much bigger way. Thank you revz uwu
This series might be what i need right now, I just started playing TCG for the first time and started with those 3 structure decks, having nothing but that is being hard but i've been enjoying playing it so yeah im really looking forward to seeing more of this
I'm really excited for the rest of this series. I loved the From Scratch series' because I feel like it really captures (imo) the best parts of yugioh; when you *don't* always have access to the exact cards you need, in the proper quantities, etc., and just have to make the best of what you have. But I always felt like not being able to trade in those series worked against recapturing that old school feel, when trading was so important. Definitely looking forward to EP2!
First time watching but this is insane! Man went 3-1 before losing locals to an actual meta version of his own deck lmao, good stuff I love trading cards so it's sad most don't want to do it anymore.
It's Literally my favourite thing seeing you bring in ideas from things I've seen through runescape youtubers. Love watching your content keep up the good work
My friends know I don't like to spend a lot of money on cards buying them on their own (even though I crack way too many packs when not around them, such as during these 3 years of Covid), but there is always one friend who looks out for me and holds onto cards I need, and once a month, we get to meet up and trade to get those cards. And yea, I feel ya, Revz, about how people want to just sell the cards or sometimes want to not trade correctly to get some powerful cards. That's why when I get some cards I know I've needed for a while when pulling 'em out of a pack (like my Accesscode Talker, for instance), I make sure to tell people they're "not for trade", but if it's anything I don't need, I'm always willing to trade 'em to someone who needs 'em for cards I need. Can't wait to see how this series goes as well! Been watching ya since the first Yu-Gi-Oh! From Scratch series.
This is the second time now you've made a new series playing a deck with the same engine I am on literally the day I pick it up, first Dogmatika then Branded. Swear, might have to get one of them there VPNs, or at least a lockable mailbox
Checking these out as my lifelong dream of physically collecting Yu-Gi-Oh! has finally come true. I stopped keeping up with the franchise after 5Ds and I’m just so overwhelmed with the new stuff.
Honestly i've been liking the 2 Nadir with 3 albaz, purely because it deck thins and lets you ditch an extra deck monster for free, just play it at the end of the turn
Great video Revz. Loved the duel, you lasted a really long time against the branded Despia blah blah deck, can’t wait to get mine, been 4 weeks delay now lol. Oh also maybe make the branded Despia or just for jank lols make blue yes tyrant dragon in the deck, it’s be funny. Can’t wait for the next one :)
Honestly glad the people in my locals trade for wants instead of value. I wanted someone’s ash blossom and they wanted my interrupted Kaiju slumber + few cards that didn’t add up to $20. He knew the price difference and I warned him but he said he knew and still wanted to. It was a fun time
I agree with you revz. I think about trading a lot. I think we should start to trade communs and rares because must of the time they are pennies. I think that would incentivize trading between duelists. On my locals we still trade sometimes but we use money ti buy cards from One another. I see Magic players trading cards a lot of cards, so maybe the problem is Yu-Gi-Oh being more competitive than Magic (most people play commander on my locals so yeah casual). Trading we always be a problem because nobody Will trade strong cards when they get lot of money instead.
New series let's gooo!!! And (once again) with a great starting deck! Personally I play branded despia but I hear branded tri-brigade is strong too and those cards may be easier to get your hands on than 3 copies of Aluber, 2 branded in red, Ad Libitium etc. Either way, another awesome video!
Your 3x Albaz deck profile was the reason I didnt upload a 3x structure deck profile to my channel. It either wouldve been basically the same deck, or I'd be knowingly running worse options just to make it look different. Instead I just went straight for the upgrade line with Dogmatika-Branded
Playing 1 Branded in White means that if you open fusion and you special the light fusion, you can use branded in white to fuse away the light fusion and get out the glory dragon so you have some protection and get a trap search during the end phase. Doesn't sound the best but it's neat to search instead of a trap off of kit if you already open fusion and lost or ways to access them.
A great bet of replacements for extrav in Albaz is Allure of Darkness. The banish isn't a cost, it's an effect, meaning you can use it to trigger Mercourier's search effect, making allure pure gains. If you then run despia, it does the same for Tragedy.
Allure is problematic to trade for early. Most printings of it are worth about 1.50$ a pop which will be annoying to try and trade for when there are better cards at that price range. Cards like branded in red for 4.00$ are more important at 1 than 3 allure, desires is currently about 1.80$, pick up a reboot for 50c, twin twisters is like 1$ for an amazing sideboard card, ad lib is like 1.30$. This deck is insanely budget friendly. Aluber, Opening, Masq and Quar arent needed for the deck to function, and every other card is exteemely budget friendly with many options from the 50c price range to 100$ so its very easy to build it up. He shouldnt even need to bother with allure, though if he comes across it would be great to pick up, but imo rn he needs extra deck options, a Verte, Starving Venom, Mudragon, Prosken, Quaer. Just things that give more options in general
Also guy at the end was technically cheating, you dont get tragedy's effect if its discarded for cost (was discarded for Lubellion cost), it gets effect from branded opening because its part of the effect not cost - key thing to look for is the semicolon ; if the wording has one - its cost, if it doesn't its usually considered part of the effect.
Super good Duel with the big cards so you can read the effect 🤩 This is high tier content here. Love the from scratch as a returning player that hasent returned because he hasent had drive to read the cards yet. Epic match on top. I think Konami relly lerned a lot how to design cards to make it a back and forth and cool game with some combos. Relly sweet. I love that you edited the sidedeck IN and OUT's and you can actually read the text so good. Holy shit Peek Editing
The weird part about this deck is you can probably just trade for the full set of the despia engine early on excluding opening aluber and masq. You can pick up 3 tragedy for .80, 1 a theatre for .30, 1 ad for 1.20, 1 mudragon for 1.20, 3 allure for 2.00, 2 Branded in Red for 8.00, 1 Dramaturge for 6.00, 2 super poly for 10.00, and 1 starving venom for 2.00 and basically be set excluding cards over 10 for 1 pretty much. Im sure you can easily trade into tragedy, theatre, ad, allure, and branded in red. Trading about 15$ worth of cards, and thats just like 10 cards of value for the deck theatre and allure will later be cuttable but they massively boost the engine from the structure
Thank God the Albaz deck is actually good for starting this. There has been plenty of times where the Structure Decks suck and so you'd get bodied even at Locals. Edit: It wasn't Warning Point that rocked CC, it was Predaplants (no, Im dead serious) and TCBOO.
Just as a heads up, you can't set judgment from grave if you sent it for albion, because it isn't treated as albaz in hand. I know it probably won't be played after this episode but you never know if it might come up again.
I played a lot of albaz on Edopro, you should try to get 3 of super poly, and play 2 of branded paradise (forgot TCG name), also you could encorporate the frightfur engine, and use dragoon by banishing albaz and light hex sealed monster for effect of lubellion
Trading is truly the core of yugioh but since money is a thing no one wants to trade unless it's for there benefit, you almost have to trade like you're playing a game of poker
Won't have the same start, but I'm gonna use this deck to start. I have no idea what I'm doing but I wanna get back into it. Already got some other boosters and my trade bait to start is guardian chimera. I did pull a droet but I have a feeling I should keep it. Probably guardian as well but I want to gain some staples.
So u guy know that chaos dragon Levithan that came in the Albany structure deck I pulled a secret rare version a week before the structure deck Camelot Its price in America sky rocketed
awesome start to the series, however just as an FYI, you can only ever control 1 copy of mirrorjade at any given time. Looked like you had double against the orcust eldlich.
damn i remember early youtube yugioh where people would have their wants list in their channel bios , my first trade was made through youtube because i was still in middle school and hadn't gone to my first locals yet lol
I love this series, such a Great idea. Taking the game back to its core. Love to see irl locals play over boring DB/MD vids. Plz keep going with this series i think you really have something special here. Winning locals shouldn’t be the goal, evolving your deck over time to turn it into something competitive to eventually top a regional/YCS should be the goal. Anyways, keep up the good work, i look forward to all of the upcoming episodes.
So what branded deck should we build?
branded tri-brigade or branded dragon link
Tri-brigade branded w/ dragoon package
branded Frogs
Tri branded
Hopefully you can build dragon link albaz as I do want to play the deck but I need a good list and I think you can figure it out with your 200 iq.
I've actually just started going to my locals too after picking up the albaz strike structure decks, not gonna lie it's kind of intimidating being the only woman there but I'm hoping I can eventually end up beating some of them! 💪🏻 going to try and get some practice there before I actually officially enter though
It's a shame so few woman play the game, because now it gets intimidating for them to start at times too :(
I do suggest just joining the tournament though, you'll get your practise, experience and such. Gotta start somewhere and it's okay to not do great from the start :)
If there is anything I can do to help you get going make sure to let me know, it's always nice seeing new people get into the game!

The mirror match was insane. So many interactions with just your 3 structure decks. Looking forward to this series so much
I really appreciate the simultaneous diversity and also familiarity that is shared between all your different series. One of the few yugitubers that I'll watch like every single bit of content on and responsible for gettin me back into the game in a much bigger way. Thank you revz uwu
Revz's 3x structure is the best one, all of the others play weird cards like golden swordsoul, branded bond, branded in white, etc.
This series might be what i need right now, I just started playing TCG for the first time and started with those 3 structure decks, having nothing but that is being hard but i've been enjoying playing it so yeah im really looking forward to seeing more of this
Recently rewatched from scratch 2 and now started rewatching this one even though its ongoing, just my favorite ygo content in youtube!
I'm really excited for the rest of this series.

Dear brother in Christ, you can only controll one Mirrorjade
Found this series the other day and I love it, keep up the great work
i love the way you editted the duel. putting the sounds and also having the card preview show up really big on the screen so i can read it (:

is it me or the editing improved ? that was a really nice video

Just went out and bought my first ever cards since I was like 11 at a Smyth’s toys today and then this video… it’s a good weekend
Oh boy a new series, couldn't be happier :)

A new form of from scratch series by my boy revz? I’m all in baby!

I have been waiting for this type of video for ages
Such a great series idea. Looking forward to the rest of it
Ayy I love the idea of this series, honestly trading cards for stuff you actually want is so fun
when you thought the man couldn't get more wholesome he drops this banger! cheers mate!
Yooo! This is what I’ve been waiting for!
Cannot wait to see more!
What an awesome idea for a series! Can't wait for the next ep,

I am so jealous of that floowandereeze playmat. I love the funny birbs but the mat seems to be like 150 bucks on ebay now xd
So cool swing revz giving a battle agaist the player with a deck made of money
This series looks 🔥. Can’t wait to see how the deck evolves depending on what people have for trade.

He never discarded tragedy, he discarded branded retribution. Tragedy was sent to the graveyard by the effect of branded fusion.
Heard the words “5 minutes to normal summon aleister” before revz summoned mirrorjade in the feature match.

Yo this deck is crazy. I knew its good but for a structure deck to be this consistent😳
Yeah Baby! That's what I've been waiting for that's what it's all about!
Fucking love the kiratwig2. love his annual uploads
Who remembers the grind for most of the cards in the structure deck since yu gi oh from scratch S1
*Whispers in Ghostly tone*
Let Gecko Cards Sppnsoooooorrr youuuuu
I actually play a neos fusion deck and I saw many similarities in the decks!
I think Predaplant Branded would be so sick to watch, similar to Dragon Link in Season 1 it's a deck that you can evolve in real time
The weird part about this deck is you can probably just trade for the full set of the despia engine early on excluding opening aluber and masq. You can pick up 3 tragedy for .80, 1 a theatre for .30, 1 ad for 1.20, 1 mudragon for 1.20, 3 allure for 2.00, 2 Branded in Red for 8.00, 1 Dramaturge for 6.00, 2 super poly for 10.00, and 1 starving venom for 2.00 and basically be set excluding cards over 10 for 1 pretty much.

Trading about 15$ worth of cards, and thats just like 10 cards of value for the deck theatre and allure will later be cuttable but they massively boost the engine from the structure
Excited for this and I agree the other builds are pretty blah.
Albihonest...I like that one xD And I like this format of video, keep that on!
Nice pulled guys and keep up the great videos. I hope you guys have awesome weekend. 😎
As a 16 year old fellow duelist i must say trading is the most fun thing about yugioh!
Got 3 of my decks through trading the core cards
Hell yea I'm going to love this season I can't wait for more.
Thank God the Albaz deck is actually good for starting this. There has been plenty of times where the Structure Decks suck and so you'd get bodied even at Locals.
Edit: It wasn't Warning Point that rocked CC, it was Predaplants (no, Im dead serious) and TCBOO.
Just as a heads up, you can't set judgment from grave if you sent it for albion, because it isn't treated as albaz in hand. I know it probably won't be played after this episode but you never know if it might come up again.
*03:00** Opening a Structure Deck boxes like that is a crime*
I played a lot of albaz on Edopro, you should try to get 3 of super poly, and play 2 of branded paradise (forgot TCG name), also you could encorporate the frightfur engine, and use dragoon by banishing albaz and light hex sealed monster for effect of lubellion
love the new stuff man
Man I get the thrill of the trade. I got my Ultimate Rare Firewall Dragon through a trade and it's my second favorite card I own.
Yugioh trading is the worst experience you could have in yugioh because everyone is just so fucking greedy i hate it
I am a fan of this series alreaday
You could use one more retribution, send it for Albion to your grave to banish it and recycle a branded spell or trap
He is truly popping off
Trading is truly the core of yugioh but since money is a thing no one wants to trade unless it's for there benefit, you almost have to trade like you're playing a game of poker
"A pathetic 3 round locals in a random bar" I can agree with hehe
Won't have the same start, but I'm gonna use this deck to start. I have no idea what I'm doing but I wanna get back into it. Already got some other boosters and my trade bait to start is guardian chimera. I did pull a droet but I have a feeling I should keep it. Probably guardian as well but I want to gain some staples.
looking forward to this one
