Thanks for all your support for the new series! We saw your feedback regarding how the perspectives flip back-and-forth too rapidly during the gameplay, and will tone it down in future episodes! This episode was already finished before Episode 1 was released!
Glad this issue is being addressed, because yeah, it got annoying real quick in Episode 1. It'd be much better if both players' facecams but only Cimo's perspective was displayed constantly.
I mean, I like seeing both hands tbh. What if you did something like a hand-cam using a rotoscoping/masking effect on his capture? Feather the edges of the mask so it blends into your capture a little cleaner? Best of both worlds? Love this new series btw.
Rarran had a great start, then fumbled a lot in between but, just in general, he did good. That's something to be proud of, so congrats for giving this Draft a chance, you evolved so much. In general, this series is a good way of teaching new players and returnees, while still having a high level for veterans. PS: Saying "f-ck this guy" to arguably one of the best and strongest cards ever in GOAT Format is to be laughed at. I won't scroll through the comments but you expect some beef from it.
Rarran did great, and people bag on him for BLS but the other picks when he had BLS were equally as good, both snatch and graceful are never dead and let’s be honest BLS would’ve ended up dead in hand with no light in grave. Now, passing on Torrential on the other hand…
@@charlesf.7947 ye it was funny skipping on bls but understandable considering the choices. i facepalmed when he faded torrential for whatever it was he took instead lol
@@tjr930 But the important thing is now he should know that the cards he skipped like BLS are really good, he should hopefully perform better if he returns to do this again.
Rarran is unofficially the wild card. I love seeing his perspectives of the game coming from a Hearthstone background, and his hot takes like saying “fuck this guy” about BLS with his flippant delivery sends me flying. I don’t care who wins, I just know this will be a fun match up to watch
I think that, at least with non Yugioh players, explaining cards like Metamorphosis in advance is a good idea. That way they aren't so uncertain over Fiend Skull Dragon and Dark Balter type cards.
I'm actually really happy to see Rarran on this series, I know that this is part promo for his channel & goat format is a different world of Yu-Gi-Oh but after seeing him be so heavily against modern Yu-Gi-Oh the fact he said yes & seemed to actually be enjoying himself while playing it makes me happy. :)
I like seeing things like this. As you don't have to be the best player to just be good at drafting. It's also just a fun way to get new players interested in trying out the game even if it's not the modern version of the game.
I love how rarran started by dunkin on the game on its very real issues, and the community responded by helping him and including him in, that he slowly became one of us.
to be fair, the community was not extremely helpful until he invested hours into learning modern yugioh. Am pretty sure he would have had fun from the start playing old school drafts though.
@@CD-zi6rb Tbf, I don't like him either. He's acting like in a baby show (aka overacting) while also pretending he's smart, which is quite annoying. He doesn't even know what "Hot take" means (A take that would put you like the Tangled meme) or how to be sarcastic.
@@N12015 I think his scripted content is fine. It’s just the manchild personality he has for streams that make me stay away from his content. The way he acts attracts a lot of awful type of viewers too, which is evident with his twitch chat.
A little suggestion, do a short introduction of the guest of the video. It true that their name is on the video’s name but it helps to know who you are dueling
I love this series but what I love about this video is that you got a non Yugioh player to participate. Reminds me of teaching friends how to play when I was younger. Great vid!
It would be great if the flipped perspective only happens each turn. Keep it on the turn player, and use add the camera footage on top and bottom to clarify who’s who.
At 50:20, if Cimo activated the Wall of Revealing light, his LP would be lower causing Megamorph to halve the atk instead of double (750 atk vs the 1600 def monster) and it would have either cancelled the attack or if it went through then he'd win from battle damage.
This was epic. Sad to see Rarran's deck having almost no outs to the wall of revealing light. But he couldn't have known noblemen wouldn't work so its understandable
I love the new series! This reminds me of trying to play arena style in Shadowverse and failing miserably, lol. I wish MD could program this as a game feature
I wish that ygopro would keep track of how often a certain card is picked for a given cube so that new players can have a better time and also help the cube creators assess better
It looks like Alex threw game 2 for content. Wall pay 1000 on attack declaration would have caused Rarran to have more lifepoints and megamorph would cut darkfire dragon down to 750 instead of boosting it to 3000.
Watching a non Yugioh player's though process while drafting was kind of fascinating. I hope I don't sound mean by saying that cause I'm really not judging him and I think he made overall very solid decisions for someone unfamiliar with the cards beforehand it's just interesting to see him evaluate the cards on the fly.
Man, watching Rarran's progress with learning the game reminds me of when i was a kid learning the game. He's doing well. Of course older formats are better for learning the game because of the simpler card design.
Haven’t finished the video but seeing the guy roll THE DREAM goat line up of Thousand Eyes, Metamorphosis & the like is some insane beginners luck. Happy for him tho👍
I think my only thing i wanted ranran to do differently was take dark dust spirit, torrential tribute(these could turn the tempo back in his favor in an undesirable position) and ha des(is great for keeping pressure). Other than that i have no complaints i feel like he did a good job of not falling for some of the bait cards in here and determining the strongest card choice. If i we're to grade his card choice in the draft id give him a 90% A. All in all really proud of ranran for his choices looking forward to seeing more of him in the yugisphere
Man I remember Slate Warrior from back in the day but didnt realize just how crazy it was. The Flip effect is pure greed, but just the fact that it was a 1900 attack 4-star effect monster with a pretty substsntial UPSIDE, in world where most 4-star monsters over 1800 attack had downsides. I know thats about when 1900 just became the norm on 4-stars, after the introduction of cards like Gemini Elf and Archfiend Soldier, but still....

How frustrated were you when you found out that rarran could have had 2 BLS but chose to have none? Lol
Rarran was like joey with his luck most of this video

Rarran needs to play doto.. also, your description say subscribe to rhyme then tagged rarran..
"Fuck this guy" after rolling BLS twice while Cimo is desperately building for it himself and doesn't roll it once LOL.
He doesnt need him, he have the blessing of RNGesus
I can’t believe he passed up BLS twice. That’s a must grab for me
to be fair rarran did have amazing choices and just went with generic low level good stuff
@@anacreon212 almost all his other choices were good yeah
@@TehWhiteTiger not to mention he played pretty well for his experience level
I love how Rarran was just able to intuit the whole strategy of cyber stein OTK without even knowing the cards beforehand
The double 6 roll Roulette Barrel was hilarious, he really wanted to kill that Jinzo lmao
There is an alternate universe where Rarran could've OTKd Cimo by opening Cyber-Stein, Megamorph, and Creature Swap.

In his deck, it was the correct call. He didn't have the light targets for it, really.
Rarran, had 2 chances at the best card in GOAT format and said it was bad. I love this man.😂
To be fair, there was no bad pick in his first chance at it (Snatch Steal and Graceful Charity are both ridiculous).
@@moonjelly5Yeah, and those Spells are never dead whereas BLS probably would be dead with no light in grave
Plus, BLS is only good if you build around it, and im almost sure rarren had 3 light monsters at max
That is highly debatable about it being the “best card”.
Maybe the best monster. Card is a massive stretch.
You can't really blame him. He didn't know. Watch as he now knows it will never appear lmao
I think that, at least with non Yugioh players, explaining cards like Metamorphosis in advance is a good idea. That way they aren't so uncertain over Fiend Skull Dragon and Dark Balter type cards.
Agreed. Clarifying some things beforehand or even mid game would be better.
Yeah, that’s really the only thing that’s not immediately obvious with this draft pool
To be fair Metamorphosis & Lvl. Up were 2 cards that bent rules early on w/o explaining itself.
honestly i gotta give big props to rarran he caught onto flip control and gamba like a true ygo player
No way. It actually happened. Cimo and Ramranch. The prophecy has been fulfilled.
They already played once.
18 naked duelists at Ramranch! Joseph checks out!
Hidden Valley ramranch plays yugioh?
They’ve played Edison before
@@MegaMetal96 Oh did they? Nice! Must have missed that,
Cimo after drafting 40 removal cards:
"We're lacking removal"
"Two duelists" This is more like a gladiator verses a samurai. Both clearly fighters...but one is rather out-of-place.
Doubly so with the samurai flipping coins everywhere.
Seeing Rarran hit however many coin flips correctly and the double six on a die roll, I think he should go play the lottery.
average hearthstone skillset
I'm actually really happy to see Rarran on this series, I know that this is part promo for his channel & goat format is a different world of Yu-Gi-Oh but after seeing him be so heavily against modern Yu-Gi-Oh the fact he said yes & seemed to actually be enjoying himself while playing it makes me happy. :)
RarraRNG talking about being Yugi Mutou, when he's actually Joey Wheeler.
I think Cimo just doesn’t want to work with Farfa
@@CD-zi6rb You lost bro?
@@Chaosfly10 Replied to the wrong comment 😩
The double roll six was so funny, i always enjoy this wacky duels 😂.
Fantastic episode, one of the best of your channel imo.
Penguin Soldier driving fear into Cimo's heart in two separate series is cinema
Rarran reverses Cimo's overpowered luck with his own overpowered luck skill!
That’s that hearthstone rng carrying over 😂
I love Rarran, so glad to see this collaboration. Watching him draft reminds me of trying to interpret these unintuitive ass cards for the first time.
I like seeing things like this. As you don't have to be the best player to just be good at drafting. It's also just a fun way to get new players interested in trying out the game even if it's not the modern version of the game.
Normally I would seethe cause he skipped BLS twice but the petty “fuck this guy” won me over 😂😂

you can see ramranch isn't a yu gi oh player...he actually read the cards!
Think playing Sword Souls and his other decks paid off. XD
Haha reading funny
The megamorph actually used like it was designed lmfaooo
Rarran getting offered 2 Lusters is crazy, would have been a giant meme, but for the best he didnt know maybe ;)
Love this series. Thank you for keeping up the amazing content you two
I had no idea cimo was also a hearthstone legend! Rarran better watch out
Crossover we actually needed.
Feels like watching endgame again.
Awesome episode
If Cimo is Yugi with his protagonist powers, Rarran is Joey with that insane luck.
RaWrrxD making it onto a Cimo series before Farfa is so funny to me.
I get the feeling Cimo just doesn’t like Farfa
@@CD-zi6rb Tbf, I don't like him either. He's acting like in a baby show (aka overacting) while also pretending he's smart, which is quite annoying. He doesn't even know what "Hot take" means (A take that would put you like the Tangled meme) or how to be sarcastic.

i love the internet. a simple joke, turned into oh these guys hate each other to to dogpiling on farfa 🤣
I like Rarran. If he ever wants to do another episode I'd be happy to see him back!
Same.
Love seeing him play ygo.
>Fairy Box is activated
>Memories of Progression Series rush back to Cimo
I cannot believe rarran has the ability to OTK through sheer dumb luck
A little suggestion, do a short introduction of the guest of the video. It true that their name is on the video’s name but it helps to know who you are dueling
Great series it was awesome seeing someone not so familiar with yugioh play the game. Keep up the good work and thanks!
Why did Cimoooo not use wall of revealing light to lower his life points so that they were lower than Rarrans's during game 2?
Cimoooo had the 2-0 maybe he was giving rarran a chance and being a nice host!
@@Reporteddd Fair enough.
Rarran played so well! The episode was so close and it was suuuuper entertaining, his gamba luck was insaaaaaane 😂
Rarran's takes on yugioh cards are actually so based
Someone teach this guy tearlaments so he can gamble at the highest level.
Did I just witness a metamorphosis into Darkfire Dragon win a Game...
That's incredible! XD
Rarran doesn't believe in the heart of cards, he believes in RNGesus.
I love how edditing (switche between pows) got a lot better in this episode. Kudos to the Editor!
I love this series but what I love about this video is that you got a non Yugioh player to participate. Reminds me of teaching friends how to play when I was younger. Great vid!
first time reading his cards. that is 1 more time than most yugioh players. clearly an unfair advantage.
It would be great if the flipped perspective only happens each turn. Keep it on the turn player, and use add the camera footage on top and bottom to clarify who’s who.
Great series, this one was so fun! Rarran brings the newbie factor that I didn't know I would love watching hah.
… player new to learning the game… wins with luck based cards..
IS RARRAN OUR JOEY WHEELER?!?!!
Honestly rarrans ability to intuit and valuate cards is stunning for a non ygo player
At 50:20, if Cimo activated the Wall of Revealing light, his LP would be lower causing Megamorph to halve the atk instead of double (750 atk vs the 1600 def monster) and it would have either cancelled the attack or if it went through then he'd win from battle damage.
Would loved to see more Rarran here
19:50 you’re not sure if discard means to the Graveyard… like where would it go then?
This was epic. Sad to see Rarran's deck having almost no outs to the wall of revealing light. But he couldn't have known noblemen wouldn't work so its understandable
duuuude watching him pass on bls and jinzo back to back was heart wrenching
I love the new series! This reminds me of trying to play arena style in Shadowverse and failing miserably, lol. I wish MD could program this as a game feature
You can tell he was having a lot of fun after game 2. THATS what Yugioh is all about!!
Super fun episode. I'd love to see the opposite where Cimo plays against Ram in Hearthstone, that'd be a sight to behold
“Not this card, fuck this card” on BLS is INSANE 😂
he has more game knowledge reading goat cards then most people who actually play
I wish that ygopro would keep track of how often a certain card is picked for a given cube so that new players can have a better time and also help the cube creators assess better
Game 2 could just be titled “Cimo bullies Hearthstone Player™️ until Fairy Box gives him detention.”
Huge shoutout to Ramranch for reading equivalent to a whole novels worth of text
Cannot believe you got the real life joey wheeler
Roulette Barrel has never been so complimented in its life
Watching Rastafarian draft yugioh is so fun!!!!!
I feel like this series needs a quick intro at the beginning to introduce the guest before hopping into drafting.
It looks like Alex threw game 2 for content. Wall pay 1000 on attack declaration would have caused Rarran to have more lifepoints and megamorph would cut darkfire dragon down to 750 instead of boosting it to 3000.
He did well considering, but this was still painful! Haha. Good effort Rarran 👏

rarran did well. It is really hard to draft in a format like this without knowing what the cardpool is like.
Man, watching Rarran's progress with learning the game reminds me of when i was a kid learning the game. He's doing well. Of course older formats are better for learning the game because of the simpler card design.
Rarran drew absolute fire oh my god.
o i love all the yugio colabs with rarran
Ramranch took every card that has rng, a true hearthstone player
Blessed be Raran for he has the favour of RNGesus
"Fuck BLS" was not on my bingo card lol 😂
Haven’t finished the video but seeing the guy roll THE DREAM goat line up of Thousand Eyes, Metamorphosis & the like is some insane beginners luck. Happy for him tho👍
While Cimo is obviously a more experienced duelist, it pains me to see how he could have lost several times if Ranran didn't make so many blunders.
Rarran looking absolutely destitute in the thumbnail, I love it.
Cimooo & Rarran combination is an instant click for me
I love this series. Hearthstone Arena is such a fun way to play the game
I laughed out loud when he read cyber stein and said “yeah, that seems pretty good”
Rarran choosing Robbin Goblin over Phoenix Wing Wind Blast hurt a little bit
I think my only thing i wanted ranran to do differently was take dark dust spirit, torrential tribute(these could turn the tempo back in his favor in an undesirable position) and ha des(is great for keeping pressure). Other than that i have no complaints i feel like he did a good job of not falling for some of the bait cards in here and determining the strongest card choice.

Ranch sauce: *reads horrible card* that seems insane *picks it over a top goat meta card*
Drinking game everytime cimo say removal take a drink
Ain’t no way Rarran held meta for so long 😭
Rarran with MBT coaching get out of my mind 😂 Too powerful to exist
hope the perspectives flipping back and forth can be used in the other series as well
You could have paid 1000 with wall on attack dec to make your life points lower making mega morph halve the attack instead of doubling it in game two
Didnt know cimo was a hearthstone legend.
Man I remember Slate Warrior from back in the day but didnt realize just how crazy it was. The Flip effect is pure greed, but just the fact that it was a 1900 attack 4-star effect monster with a pretty substsntial UPSIDE, in world where most 4-star monsters over 1800 attack had downsides.

I'm so happy to see Rarran playing Yugioh again
Rarran back with YGO!
Cant wait for rarran's runback in s2
Rarran took the time to read all of the cards, that automatically makes him the best duelist on this channel lol
Cimo missed the wall of reveiling light to reduce his lp so megamorph halves the atk instead
I like how this was a duel between the protagonist and the guy with coin flips and dice rolls! This felt so Yugi vs Joey to me!
Cimo looks at monarchs the same way caseoh looks at shrimp Alfredo😂
Not taking Trunade for the Stein OTK is CRAZY. I would've picked it up just for the chance, even if they are all one-of's.
