Trif is the spokes person of the Pend community, what do you expect and out of the ones he didn't get 1 of those were cards which aren't even released. So yes TRIF best duelist and Pend best deck.
I’ve always loved trif’s hype, there are so many Yu-Gi-Oh! Videos with the commentators just sounding dead but there’s trif that hypes everyone up every play, truly a special channel
Trif is really “wholesome” until you watch him post a video HE recorded of HIMSELF sexually assaulting a woman on an airplane, once while she was awake and another time while she was sleeping. It would be great to like him, as I love pendulum decks, but it’s not possible after that for me, personally.
@@michaelkerr7696 It was about a year ago. You can find the story on Reddit, but no one talks about it, and everyone still collaborates with him, it’s pretty gross.
Saw this live, still came to see it in video version!! Love both of these creators! They both have great personalities and they actually have pretty good chemistry!
On the reflection question: reflection uses the “and” conjunction. So if you can’t do both you do neither. So if you can’t. Bounce the jackal you don’t bounce your opponents card.
If it said "both" (like Escape of the Unchained) then Disaster wouldn't be bounced. When it has "and", "them" or "those targets" it resolves as much as possible. "And" is used here like "also" (at least it was written "also" in some OCG translations) but i believe they would use "and if you do" if they wanted to word it as you believe. Still it's such BS, they should stick to 1 use of the key words so we dont get that confusion. A lot of people talk about dmg step but imagine the wormhole that "it"/"that target"/"those targets"/"them"/"all of them"/"them" is.
Thanks for saying this, it was my exact thought. The only possible explanation is a mistranslation, because by the psct wording in the card the bounce should not be happening at all.
If you equip a pendulum monster to an effect monster, lets say you equip a scale 1 to Relinquished, and you place it in the left pendulum zone and also you have a scale 5 pend in the right zone, can you actually pendulum summon using the equiped monster as a scale since it is in the pendulum zone?
No ya cannot because Relinquished equips the targeted monster as a spell card. Ya need to hard activate a Pendulum monster from the hand into one of either the leftmost or rightmost zones for it to be considered as an active Pendulum scale
nah you need to manually place the monster in the Pendulum Zone from your hand or via a card effect that would treat it as a Pendulum Monster But that would have been very funny to be able do so with cards like Union Carrier tho
The Master Cerberus vs. Apollousa ruling needs some clarification. Apollousa's effect changes its original ATK, so Master Cerberus should gain it. The only explanation I can think of is Master Cerberus' effect checking the original ATK after Apollousa is banished, but it's an "and if you do" effect, meaning it happens simultaneously, so that doesn't really make much sense.
It's the same reason why if you Dragoon pop a token, opp won't take any damage. If it doesn't have original attack in its new location then original attack is basically 0. It's important to note that "and if you do" does NOT mean it's simultaneous. Think about it... you have to do the first part before in order to check if you "did" it.
@@Boristien405 "and if you do" IS treated as happening simultaneously for card effects that care about that, but you still have to do A before B can happen.
@@wolfboy414_lac Right my bad actually I knew that lol idk why I worded it the way I did. You have to A before you do B but it counts as happening at the same time for anything that cares (like VW monsters send and summon at the same time)
Yes, it does say "banished monster's original ATK", which does mean it checks the original ATK in the banish pile, not on the field. That's why it's +0 ATK.
Just saying these questions are a lot harder than the Orcust ones, the hardest Orcust question was an attack modifier but Trif needed to know the intricate ruling on Spell Counter specific cards, PSCT to know that the "also" conjunction is godly and knowledge of the mechanics of the Pendulum Summon (something most player of YuGiOh don't even know how to perform)
That last ruling was pretty clear to me. If you could Gamma, there would be no way to resolve the summon in a non-awkward way (like "going back and changing how many monsters you summon" awkward).
I know it was for the question but knowing the opponent had Laggia and I had gamma I wouldn’t had tried to summon 4 but 3 cause it was obvious the Dino player would had negate it. Triff really messed up on that one
So for the final question, one of the monsters that would be summoned is a pendulum monster. I know what I'm about to ask is NOT the exact same scenario, BUT if you would pendulum summon 4 monsters while the opponent controls Evolzaur, but one of the would-be summons is coming from the Extra Deck and would therefore be summoned to the Extra Monster Zone, would you be able to use Gamma since you only "occupy" 3 main monster zones?
How does reflection still resolve the first part? Doesn't it need to return both because it states 'return that opponent's card and your card to the hand'
for the Laggia, im gonna say the answer is no. reason why, is because the Summon is not successful but thing about it like 4 portals that were taking up space. since there are 2 extra spaces for portals, you cannot do it
@@jadegrace1312 not really the gamma question is very specific and has nothing to do with the effects of the cards. Same with the token question and returning to extra deck question.
@@AZI-zh9fg The gamma question was easy, it says "special summon both this card and 1 "psy-frame driver," you can't do that, therefore you can just its effect
The only thing i know is the scaling and it took me a year or 2 to understand it like if you have 2 and 5 you have to play monsters between those levels like 3 to 4 stars monsters. The rest i'm confused specially when it can be a spell and trap and go back to your extra deck after being destroyed. But i can't wait till duel links have it so i can practice i was practing before but due to the lock down last year i can't do it and then my yugi players moved so yha lack of friends to play.
So wait, why does reflection bounce if one target leaves the field as it says return your monster and your opponents then gain the counters. Since it cant bounce one of the targets, surely it cant bounce the other target? Please can someone explain this interaction to me
LET'S GO PENDULUM BEST DECK GOT 8/8. That last question almost took brain cells out of my freaking head man holy moly. Next YugiTuber should be either Lithium2300 with monarchs, or Ruggles with heros.:)

Need farfa to this for BA
Nb4 Farfa goes 0/8
He did do that to himself tho. He said any pendulum card is fair game
yugitubers got clapped by a dark sasuke lmfao
To be fair pendulum is really just a deck and not a summoning mechanic as well.
Trif thought reading the cards was cheating, what a legend
Clearly evidence that he did not cheat and Komoney banned him for no reason
And he thought slow play was legal. Wild.
@@0scarWalsh lmfao
@@0scarWalsh he didn't slow play! It's a joke like Firewall pass!

"Hence pend best deck"
- pend god
Well EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE me princess
Truly the wisest of words
I agree very wise words
5/8 for the whole summoning mechanic not 1 architype is honestly impressive. as expected for the harbringer of the mechanic.
Trif is the spokes person of the Pend community, what do you expect and out of the ones he didn't get 1 of those were cards which aren't even released. So yes TRIF best duelist and Pend best deck.

Yeah, I appreciate that Trif doesn't spend 10+ minutes explaining why nobody plays Jar of Greed in 2021 with a dead tone of voice.
This man is a treasure. His enthusiasm is really pure and wholesome.

The king! What an amazing series this is! Much love bro! 🙏🏼❤️🔥😎 PEND BEST DECK!
2:03 When mom says: *Pizza is here!*
Trif had the toughest rulings questions, as most of these never come up.
Best episode so far, Triff was so entertaining the whole time
Farfa: Burning Abyss
Pak: Infernoble or Prank-Kids
Gage: Deskbots or Sky Striker
Cimo: Blackwings or Trickstar
TeamSamuraiX1: Dinosaur or Hero (Redemption)
Dzeef: Fluffal (returning cameo)
Trif: Pendulum (Round 2)
TheCaliEffect: Thunder Dragon or Salamangreat
Aznpersuasion: Noble Knights or Kozmo
The next stage of the series is a rulings head to head. Imagine triff vs farfa
I said a couple weeks ago he could host a game show with YuGiOh trivia and rulings . I’d watch every second
At 4:52 "actual scam exam" - Farfa LMAO
"Some are genius' and some are uh... some are not"
Spoken beautifully, pend okay deck
The gamma question made up for how easy the zefraniu solemn question was
You can't help but root for Trig. This video has made my love and respect for this guy skyrocket
Each episode is getting more and more exciting.
LETS GOOOOOO. PEND BEST DECK!
Trifs getting 9 negates out of 2 cards, thats what matters
On the reflection question: reflection uses the “and” conjunction. So if you can’t do both you do neither. So if you can’t. Bounce the jackal you don’t bounce your opponents card.
That was what I thought too, but weirdly enough, the OCG rulings state that you don't need to return both.
@@Jay_R. Same. Just goes to show this game is inconsistent as fuck, LOL.

I’m new to yugioh, it’s cool to see that Drake plays yugioh too!
You can’t know how much I wanted that episode
If you equip a pendulum monster to an effect monster, lets say you equip a scale 1 to Relinquished, and you place it in the left pendulum zone and also you have a scale 5 pend in the right zone, can you actually pendulum summon using the equiped monster as a scale since it is in the pendulum zone?

Been actively waiting for this vid, Pend best ruling questions let’s gooooo
4:52 and 12:04 made me smile
Everyone been waiting on this one!!! Lmaooo, did not disappoint 👏
He did say you couldn’t negate with Gamma at first I wish he would’ve stuck to his answer but it’s all good still the PendGOAT 🐐🔥
What's scarier than "Enter BP?"
"Final Answer?"
This is what ive been waiting for!!!
Wow, better than I thought, tbh. Nicely done homie.

Great series!
LET US PROCEED FORWARD! PENDULUM IS THE BEST BUNCH OF 40 CARDS!
That last ruling was pretty clear to me. If you could Gamma, there would be no way to resolve the summon in a non-awkward way (like "going back and changing how many monsters you summon" awkward).

I can't wait for "Does FARFA Know BURNING ABYSS Rulings?"
I really thought he was gonna rip his shirt off after answering that tough 2 part question. LETS GOO!!! #PendBestDeck.
How does reflection still resolve the first part? Doesn't it need to return both because it states 'return that opponent's card and your card to the hand'
The cost is to target and since compulse bounce Jackal king it just won’t gain the counters
Pendulum best deck lets goooo
My boy Trif really chocked on the last one.
STILL 5/8 TRIF PEND GOD LET'S GO
We need a Coder Pegasus rules challenge kind of video where you just troll all the yugitubers

We need to see how well farfa knows burning abyss. And if MBT knows pacifis control.
Trif is such a chad
PEND BEST DECK LET'S GO
Great series !!!
hear ye hear ye, let it be known that henceforth and forthwith, pend best deck.
Honestly, Apollousa, it would look so so cool, especially since it’s such a unique color scheme.
Trif always steals the show. Truly the people's champion.
for the Laggia, im gonna say the answer is no.
reason why, is because the Summon is not successful but thing about it like 4 portals that were taking up space. since there are 2 extra spaces for portals, you cannot do it
"Am I allowed to read it" LMAO
When Trif asked for the lifeline, you shoulda just given him the 50-50.
To be fair, Trif got some of the harder ruling questions. Pendelums are weird.
BEST DECK*
I think it average out, the easy questions is really easy and the hard question r really hard.
Question 4 was mind boggling..
Eh, if he had just read the cards he easily could've had 7/8
@@jadegrace1312 not really the gamma question is very specific and has nothing to do with the effects of the cards. Same with the token question and returning to extra deck question.
@@AZI-zh9fg The gamma question was easy, it says "special summon both this card and 1 "psy-frame driver," you can't do that, therefore you can just its effect

You didn't even link his youtube?
Got to give it to trif , the questions here were harder(thats what she said) than any other contestant until now.
He really punted some of those questions. I would have thought he’d get 7 of 8.
Especially the last one, I actually think that was one of the easiest questions.
trif is just amazing, hes the best
You should have asked some questions with dinomists. Namely howling interactions with the pend scales it places from deck.
fucking love trif man

Yugioh!!!! 😆 good stuff man. Very entertaining.
Wooooohhhh I was expecting triff on rulling
So wait, why does reflection bounce if one target leaves the field as it says return your monster and your opponents then gain the counters. Since it cant bounce one of the targets, surely it cant bounce the other target?
Please can someone explain this interaction to me
My thinking comes from the and conjunction as I thought and means both must happen or neither happen
The cost for reflection is to target and the bounce part is to gain counters
