I do completely agree that it's addicting as hell and should absolutely be a hobby you're careful with.

I like how people don't bat an eye when you play kid board games like Monopoly or connect four. But if you play a complicated card game with so many game mechanics like YU-GI-OH! adults who don't know jackshit about the game will make baseless assumptions about you.
If you are older and play on a softball team, soccer, or something as an adult nobody says anything negative. I've worked with 40+ year olds that watch multiple 3 hour sports games per week, then the super bowl, world cup, etc. and no family member or coworker says anything at all. If I look at a streamed Yugioh tournament or Evo watching street fighter on my lunch break and a coworker sees it I get a talk about maturity and how it is a waste of time. The hypocrisy is ridiculous, we should all be able to "waste our time" and partake in any hobbies we want without scrutiny.
As long as ur not being shitty, such as commiting 1 of the 7 sins, then it doesn't fucking matter wat u do in ur free time. IDC if u play card games, video games, play sports, go fishing, or watch anime, or anything else, it's all the same silliness. Every1 has their own preferred hobby. It shudnt matter wat it happens to be.
If you're playing sports (not e-sports) as a hobby, yeah an average person won't mind, some people will even like it. People expects some random strangers to be "productive" 24/7 when they themselves aren't doing it, it's ridiculous
Im the youngest where i work, everyone else is 40+ so i get lots of stares when im watching YGO content or playing masterduel on break. told them when i first got "questioned" about it: " you think my hobbies are pointless and boring, i think you hobbies are pointless and boring so lets leave it at that cause you dont care what i think and i dont care what you think"
I LOVE when people ask me that question. And my response? "Why yes, i have 3 degrees and a health profession , ive earned my adult play time to sit here and play a game ive loved before the inception of your child" Play what you love, not act how others expect, drinking beer with the guys watching sports like an average an. 😅
she’s mad because you played with her child more than his dad probably did It’s ok dkayed your just giving her kid a father figure to look up to , good for you man!
Yep. This is my experience. I am an older player that got into this game when it came out. I was in my early 20s when I played. Now, as much as I would love to play IRL, I would come off as a creepy old dude. Thank goodness for Master Duel.
Step yo swag up. You walk in the venue in designer gear, I bet you them bitches dick ride. How can you be creepy in a $500 shirt, plus more? I'll wait.
Thank goodness for Master Duel for real. I stopped playing Yugioh around 21 (over a decade ago) because 1) Cards are expensive as hell and 2) No one in my area played except teens and younger. I entered a local tournament and was one of the only older guys there, so I decided to quit playing. My step son (a video gamer) told me about Master Duel when it first came out and I got hooked immediately. This is my FAVORITE game. I haven’t even picked up CoD since then, and my wife is happier for it. Now she doesn’t hear me shouting at 2am because I die in CoD…she hears me shouting because MAXX C!!! 😖😖😖
At my very first locals tournament, we had about 12 of us dueling with only a single kid, most of the others were older teens and adults between 17-25 with a couple of older guys around 30. The kid came with his mom as well and he looked very timid and didn't really speak with anyone. He lost almost every duel but his mom kept encouraging him to duel more. He sat at a corner table with his deck box in his hands looking very uncomfortable after the tournament. You could tell he really wanted to engage with the rest of us but didn't know who or how to speak with anyone. So I picked up my cards and walked over to him and asked if he wanted to play. A few matches, I had three different decks, so three matches with him. He was playing the dino structure deck that came out at the time. My decks were Busted Blader, Dark Magician and Fluffals (which was my main deck for the tournament) and we just dueled. His mom just stood over his shoulder and smiled the whole time and he slowly began to open up and speak more over the course of each game. I let him win two of the games by giving him advice on what cards to play, how to respond to certain chains and how he can use his strategy a bit better. After the matches I traded some cards with him, giving him a good amount of staples like Twin Twisters, Dark Holes, a few generic links and a bunch of stuff that could help with dinosaurs. I only took a couple of commons that I liked that weren't worth much like Summoned Skull and another random card I never saw again. He left very happy and began coming back every now and then for locals. Idk, it feels really discouraging when I don't see a younger generation dueling anymore because I live in a collage town and you'd think there'd be more players but the ygo community is declining. I'm almost 29 and my son's about to be 12 so we can play together sure but my son doesn't really play with his friends because they are too preoccupied with other games. Plus I'd have to fork out extra money to build him competitive decks that even I wouldn't run just because of the secondary market. That kid that came into locals had to scrape by with a structure deck because almost everything would be sold out by scalpers looking to make a profit off of high rarity cards from sets. It's much harder now than it was when I was younger to get into the game. Plus there's so much more going on with the game itself to even begin to keep track of. I won't deny that there are snobby kids and parents who can be disrespectful but from my own experience, this is just my own here, there aren't enough kids playing this game that was designed for them specifically in mind. Master Duel has been great for doing that other than Duel Links. My son and I can easily play those together than the actual card game.
M'aam, you could be getting your kid ready for life but you're letting him play this adult's card game at the card shop with middle aged men. This is how you parent?
I can relate. The last sneak peek I went to, I looked at the age of everybody else who signed in and said to myself, " yea I'm getting a little old for this." Luckily, my store was still pretty competitive at that time with players around my age, even on the weekends.
Grown adult men play Super Mario and Pokemon still and still watch cartoons. I feel like a lot of people in this comments section and the guy that uploaded this video are too insecure
People around my age group (millennial) and older sadly are always going to have this type of insecurity. Mainly because our peers have this thought that we're pretty much are not doing anything with our lives if we have some sort of gaming hobby.
@ygodecktestertube I quit playing the TCG for other reasons (at 28. I'm 34 now.) That's good that you don't have that insecurity. More importantly, the negative stereotypes concerning yugioh players need to end.
Saying "YuGiOh is a children card game" is like saying anime are kids cartoon while your kid is watching Attack On Titan. The "children" who used to play YuGiOh years ago are now adults. There's basically no kids on YGO now, they're as rare as 1 sunny day in London or a clear sky in Pechino
can't blame him, this is why I play in my local card shop not in childrens park lol. While yugioh may be a childrens card game majority of its players are adults over 21 ironically
@@Joao_Paulo018We all know it's not a game for kids. If anybody thinks otherwise, they're retardo. It's called marketing. Who's gonna market a card game to people who're already adults? Nobody. There would be no traction if the aforementioned adults didn't grow up on whatever series is being created into a card game. Hence, why most YGO players are 21+.
There’s a few kids at my locals too and I find it very endearing they never win but we always give them free cards and help them improve their decks in any way we can
I thank god for the older players. When Yugioh first came out I was 10 and it was huge on the playground but tournaments didn’t exist in my small town until older players took the initiative to organise them and advertise in the paper. All the tournaments were run by a group of mid-20s men who went to the local college and without them, Yugioh would have died off in my town so I’m grateful to adult players for giving me a lot of great memories
We had in our locals,2-3 men around 45-50 yrs old playing Yugioh. I stopped playing because our locals closed and the next place is like 3 hours drive away
chess is more expected as an intellectual sport. But yeah its sad. Bc chess and yugioh are kind similar in finding different lines to outplay your opponent. But people think one is superior than the other for some reason.
Sounds like a new locals to me lol if the scene dies or becomes toxic, I just go somewhere else. I couldn’t care less what people think of me when they hear that I play competitively lol
Don't let judgemental people ruin what you've built over years and years. It's like saying Mr Roger's is weird for making a career out of entertaining kids. People can judge you all they want but you're still likely more successful than they are.
You were overthinking the situation. Just hurry up and finish the duel with her son, send the fool to the shadow realm, then toss his pathetic cards at his mom and say you will be next if you keep yappin....
I quit tcg earlier on. Was about when more powerful cards came into play. Made a lot of friends and made some money selling cards but decided to quit when i was still a teen. Now as an adult, im loving master duel. Took me a a little while to get used to all the insane new tech 😅
> Normal Summon Traptrix Myrmeleo > Opponent Maxx 'C' > Still do my Sera-Rafflesia endboard anyways. Pass. > Draw phase. Resolve my Maxx 'C' > Surrender. That's how most of my game ends in MD. lol
that’s the cool thing about yugioh, you could always play casually 😮 i was a pendulum main much to everyones dismay back then, but unlearning pendulums has been a little difficult
That’s when you just respond back with at least I’m being more of a parent right now playing with your kid. Instead of you just standing there doing the same thing I am except your not playing. Then when you get home your going to have the girls over and drink wine and just talk about high school and other past memories because people just love to live in the past. Your welcome for helping your kid with his critical thinking now pay me for showing your kid a valuable skill
I quit years ago. Right around when Synchro got brought in. My local scene was ruled by people with more money than sense. Didnt have a few hundred to drop on the new sets every other month? Dont bother turning up. Then there was this one incident where I and someone else were fighting tooth and nail for that 8th place. I won, got a Dark Magician of Chaos (at the time an extremely good card) and my opponent wouldnt speak to me for months. I knew it was time to give up. It just wasnt fun anymore.
It wouldn't matter what you're doing people like that mother just wanna feel better than someone else especially sitting somewhere for their kid they probably dont wanna do and gotta make someone else miserable as she is if shed get into what her kid was into a lil itd probably be good for his development
I mean I dont even have a locals anymore. We use to, and it was fun. Several kids showed up along with all the adults who played and we actually built relationships with their parents as well as their kids. I have 2 of them on facebook and theyre both in college now. So proud of them
1 it is a child’s card game that I never grew out of. 2 the card shop by me does kids night tournaments where the older player can come in and mentor one of the kids through the tournament with the supervision of parents
Look i have a passion to play this game its been 40 years and its amazing. Its all ways evolving. Your kid wants to play. And we all love to play this game win or lose
The silence between each sentence... 8 years ago (Was 26) actually meet a curious mom, and she asked stuff about the show too At least on MD you don't know for sure if you're facing a dude like you, a lady, a kid or a psycho... Ignorance is a blessing
oof I can feel that cuz I was that peanut buttered kid (not really, but I sure didn't use sleeves, and couldn't deck build) I remember being at a college with my mom, and seeing people play Yu-Gi-Oh now I think back on it and think to myself, I really made them uncomfortable a prepubescent kid saying cool, and freaking out that one dude had five headed dragon
Little did the mother from this story know, Yugioh is the most complicated card game that had any kind of major mainstream success. The only game I think comes close to how complex Yugioh is would be Artifact, which appears to be a game where you play 3 simultaneous games of Hearthstone, and was pretty much dead on arrival anyways.
Yeah I had this same exact problem, but the difference between me and this story, I called the cops and pressed charges against my wild karen encounter for harassing me at my locals. Moral of the story, if you are going to accuse anyone of being a pedo and harass them, expect to be placed under arrest and sued.
"So this is what you do with your Saturdays, huh?" Wait until she realises there's a world championship tournament for this game, and how many actual children are involved in it. lol

I feel this. Kinda the same reason I don't go to LGS anymore to play Yugioh. Thankfully their parents haven't asked that question to me though when I did go. But I'd be brutally honest with them. Would you rather have me go do drugs or would you want to have your kid have some fun playing a game we both enjoy and love? Everyone's gotta have a hobby too.

I’m 43 and I’ll be playing this game forever if I can. My sons don’t play it but they love the anime. They say it’s pay to win 😂 us OGs have to keep the community alive. It’s our obligation.
Dayum you can tell that one hit home, remember its just a game and that's all it should be, and if it is then thats ok 👍 don't worry about what others say
Its insane that adults nowadays will watch football or netflix and drink beer all day and consider it a hobby. Like go and actually play something, just because you are older doesn't mean you should not have hobbies. Most people would be offended but I tell them be offended and quit being ignorant to the newer generation and indulge.
You got to stop caring what other people think honestly. Their was this one older guy in his late 50s or 60s at my locals when i was younger and he told me that he played yugioh is cause he wanted to do something with his grandson and bond with him, so he learned how to play yugioh and he was pretty damn good i might say. If that mom gives you more trouble just use the seal of orichalcos my guy

M'aam, you could be getting your kid ready for life but you're letting him play this adult's card game at the card shop with middle aged men. This is how you parent?
Crazy how that's the exception. I'm 21 and when I go to locals, all the players are between 16 and 30.
I'm that one 30 year old nigga who shitting on everybody under 30 and over 39.
Yah most of the players i play are my age
When mothers ask uncomfortable questions, ask them about their onlyfans.
"Okay, Keisha." 😂
On god straight facts
That’s a nice one ! 😂
Or pornhub account? 😂😂😂
Yup lol
I can relate. The last sneak peek I went to, I looked at the age of everybody else who signed in and said to myself, " yea I'm getting a little old for this."
Luckily, my store was still pretty competitive at that time with players around my age, even on the weekends.
Grown adult men play Super Mario and Pokemon still and still watch cartoons. I feel like a lot of people in this comments section and the guy that uploaded this video are too insecure
@@RedEyeKing313XI agree. Real alpha males not tripping over what a random bitch gosta say, you feel? Like, hoe. Sitcho ass down.
People around my age group (millennial) and older sadly are always going to have this type of insecurity. Mainly because our peers have this thought that we're pretty much are not doing anything with our lives if we have some sort of gaming hobby.
@@gk_zone4274I'm 30 with no such insecurity. I can't relate.
@ygodecktestertube I quit playing the TCG for other reasons (at 28. I'm 34 now.) That's good that you don't have that insecurity. More importantly, the negative stereotypes concerning yugioh players need to end.
I would ignore the mother and tell the kid “I’m just stunning you because I have unresolved anger towards your mother…take that”
IS PERFECT (IF SHE CAN HEAR)
"I usually do meth on saturndays but my plug ran out" the faces are priceless is tell you
IS PERFECT (DEPENDING 0F AM0UNT WICH CAN HEAR)
Saying "YuGiOh is a children card game" is like saying anime are kids cartoon while your kid is watching Attack On Titan.
The "children" who used to play YuGiOh years ago are now adults. There's basically no kids on YGO now, they're as rare as 1 sunny day in London or a clear sky in Pechino
can't blame him, this is why I play in my local card shop not in childrens park lol. While yugioh may be a childrens card game majority of its players are adults over 21 ironically
I think the game is too complex for kids anyway lol
@@Joao_Paulo018 fr, thats why games like duel links and rush duel was made
@@Joao_Paulo018We all know it's not a game for kids. If anybody thinks otherwise, they're retardo. It's called marketing. Who's gonna market a card game to people who're already adults? Nobody. There would be no traction if the aforementioned adults didn't grow up on whatever series is being created into a card game. Hence, why most YGO players are 21+.
Gia's laugh in the background is everything 😂
There’s a few kids at my locals too and I find it very endearing they never win but we always give them free cards and help them improve their decks in any way we can
The beauty of my deck that i am like my stun deck "i don't answer questions".
I always say, yep I try to teach kids how to play my favorite game since nobody taught me and it has only got more complicated over the years.
I thank god for the older players. When Yugioh first came out I was 10 and it was huge on the playground but tournaments didn’t exist in my small town until older players took the initiative to organise them and advertise in the paper. All the tournaments were run by a group of mid-20s men who went to the local college and without them, Yugioh would have died off in my town so I’m grateful to adult players for giving me a lot of great memories
Peanut butter fingers goes crazy lmao I'm crying 😂
It's the same thing as playing video games as an adult. You're able to have whatever hobbies you want. Even if it's beating little Timmy at CoD. 😅
COVID pushed me away from the TCG. I mainly play Duel Links and Master Duel now.
Sounds like a bad local scene. I would look for another shop.
The parents sounded pretty jaded. It's just a hobby like any other.
I loved yugioh as a kid and it's evolved over the years into a more adult game and that's why I and many modern players love it.
Kids dont come to my local, the game is too expensive for a kid to compete
i just started going to locals. i’m so glad that mine is monday nights so i won’t have to encounter this problem and can just play with adults.
That’s so weird cause I feel like I almost never see kids playing at my locals
When I was a kid, I was usually the only kid at tournaments outside of a toys R us. And I stopped playing because kids stopped playing after like 12.
We had in our locals,2-3 men around 45-50 yrs old playing Yugioh. I stopped playing because our locals closed and the next place is like 3 hours drive away
"I'm enjoying a game on Saturdays. You have to take your child to a game on Saturdays."
there isn't a huge difference between playing Yugioh and playing chess. I wonder if she would say that to Gotham Chess.
chess is more expected as an intellectual sport. But yeah its sad. Bc chess and yugioh are kind similar in finding different lines to outplay your opponent. But people think one is superior than the other for some reason.
Sounds like a new locals to me lol if the scene dies or becomes toxic, I just go somewhere else. I couldn’t care less what people think of me when they hear that I play competitively lol
? WHY W0ULD Y0U G0 IF Y0U D0NT CARE 0F WHAT 0THARS D0 THINK 0F Y0U ?
D0NT CARE BUT AFECTS Y0U . . . . . CANT HALFLY-ACCEPT THAT
Im on the floor😭😭😭😭 "so this is what you do with your Saturdays huh"
Mom insults, I respond with impermanence to silence the bish
This hits hard
It does
True! I remember the first time I ever participated in an event, I also had to fight some small children being supervised... xD
Don't let judgemental people ruin what you've built over years and years. It's like saying Mr Roger's is weird for making a career out of entertaining kids.
People can judge you all they want but you're still likely more successful than they are.
“I’m playing with her child in my free time on Saturday”
💀💀
Idr the last time I saw a kid at a YGO locals
That laugh at the end 😂
You were overthinking the situation. Just hurry up and finish the duel with her son, send the fool to the shadow realm, then toss his pathetic cards at his mom and say you will be next if you keep yappin....
“Waxing bads in 30 seconds flat is EXACTLY what I spend my Saturdays doing, ma’am.”
I quit tcg earlier on. Was about when more powerful cards came into play. Made a lot of friends and made some money selling cards but decided to quit when i was still a teen. Now as an adult, im loving master duel. Took me a a little while to get used to all the insane new tech 😅
> Normal Summon Traptrix Myrmeleo
> Opponent Maxx 'C'
> Still do my Sera-Rafflesia endboard anyways. Pass.
> Draw phase. Resolve my Maxx 'C'
> Surrender.
That's how most of my game ends in MD. lol
that’s the cool thing about yugioh, you could always play casually 😮 i was a pendulum main much to everyones dismay back then, but unlearning pendulums has been a little difficult
That’s when you just respond back with at least I’m being more of a parent right now playing with your kid. Instead of you just standing there doing the same thing I am except your not playing. Then when you get home your going to have the girls over and drink wine and just talk about high school and other past memories because people just love to live in the past. Your welcome for helping your kid with his critical thinking now pay me for showing your kid a valuable skill
I quit years ago. Right around when Synchro got brought in.
My local scene was ruled by people with more money than sense. Didnt have a few hundred to drop on the new sets every other month? Dont bother turning up.
Then there was this one incident where I and someone else were fighting tooth and nail for that 8th place. I won, got a Dark Magician of Chaos (at the time an extremely good card) and my opponent wouldnt speak to me for months.
I knew it was time to give up. It just wasnt fun anymore.
It wouldn't matter what you're doing people like that mother just wanna feel better than someone else especially sitting somewhere for their kid they probably dont wanna do and gotta make someone else miserable as she is if shed get into what her kid was into a lil itd probably be good for his development
If a parent talked to me like that at a locals I'm making her kid cry I don't care 🤣
"I'm playing with her child." Pause.
I mean I dont even have a locals anymore. We use to, and it was fun. Several kids showed up along with all the adults who played and we actually built relationships with their parents as well as their kids. I have 2 of them on facebook and theyre both in college now. So proud of them
Literally the same thing for me. I started playing magic the gathering when I was around 17 because I wanted to be around people my own age.
I guess being an adult is being old enough to do what you want but also being too old to do what you want 🤦🏿♂️
That's what they don't tell you about adulthood 😅
Damn. This just hit hard. A nigga can't really play with toys without being looked at weird. Life is pretty wild, man. 😢
1 it is a child’s card game that I never grew out of. 2 the card shop by me does kids night tournaments where the older player can come in and mentor one of the kids through the tournament with the supervision of parents
lol Gia laughing like you should give mommy milkers the Maxx C. lol That and little Timmy went home crying too many times.
Look i have a passion to play this game its been 40 years and its amazing. Its all ways evolving. Your kid wants to play. And we all love to play this game win or lose
The silence between each sentence... 8 years ago (Was 26) actually meet a curious mom, and she asked stuff about the show too
At least on MD you don't know for sure if you're facing a dude like you, a lady, a kid or a psycho... Ignorance is a blessing
oof I can feel that cuz I was that peanut buttered kid (not really, but I sure didn't use sleeves, and couldn't deck build) I remember being at a college with my mom, and seeing people play Yu-Gi-Oh now I think back on it and think to myself, I really made them uncomfortable a prepubescent kid saying cool, and freaking out that one dude had five headed dragon
To be fair she was also spending HER saturday doing the same thing
Jesus that is mega depressing.
Little did the mother from this story know, Yugioh is the most complicated card game that had any kind of major mainstream success. The only game I think comes close to how complex Yugioh is would be Artifact, which appears to be a game where you play 3 simultaneous games of Hearthstone, and was pretty much dead on arrival anyways.
"Im playing with her child in my free time on Saturday"
Yeah I had this same exact problem, but the difference between me and this story, I called the cops and pressed charges against my wild karen encounter for harassing me at my locals. Moral of the story, if you are going to accuse anyone of being a pedo and harass them, expect to be placed under arrest and sued.
I see nothing wrong with that, but yes the problem is how these people sees this like its a mortal sin.
"So this is what you do with your Saturdays, huh?"
Wait until she realises there's a world championship tournament for this game, and how many actual children are involved in it. lol
And most probably you were a better paternal figure to that kid... Ooops
Luckily for me my yugioh Locals is mostly older people.
Same
LMAO on stream i told him i smoked a kid at locals and i felt bad so it prompted this
IS WHAT-HAPENS IF D0 AL0W Y0UR CHILD(S) D0 PLAY-'ADULT GAMES'
IF HER CHILD(S) CANT HANDLE-'ADULT LEVEL' INSTED 0F CRYING AT T0URNAMENT-PR0VIDER AND0R REFEREE AND0R 0P0SING-PLAYER SHE SH0ULD C0NVINCE HER CHILD(S) SH0ULD QUIT
FUCKING PANZYASS LAZY PARENTS (& IPADS) THESE DAYS
I feel this. Kinda the same reason I don't go to LGS anymore to play Yugioh. Thankfully their parents haven't asked that question to me though when I did go. But I'd be brutally honest with them. Would you rather have me go do drugs or would you want to have your kid have some fun playing a game we both enjoy and love? Everyone's gotta have a hobby too.
I'll be 50 and still playing, stay strong dude
Lmao, it was the exact opposite for me. I was 10-12 and played against some 30 year old man. Never went back after that loss.
You deserve it, pwussie. ❤
@ygodecktestertube Lmao I probably did. Considering I never paid for my cards and just stole them out of card packs in stores.
@@mrtoast3319We all did. Most of my cards are stolen. Lmfao! Gotta love being a kid.
To whoever reads this,
I hope you have a wonderful day and no matter what stay happy as that is what matters most in life,
You are truly amazing and no one can ever take that away from you,
Be happy and enjoy life,
We don't have long on earth so make the most of it,
We’re all gonna make it brahs
I’m 43 and I’ll be playing this game forever if I can. My sons don’t play it but they love the anime. They say it’s pay to win 😂 us OGs have to keep the community alive. It’s our obligation.
It is simple. Clone yourself. The only way for you to have competition
Remember there was once a time when a children's card game decided the fate of the world
Its ok bro look at u now. U are literally the king of virtual yu gi oh
"Pretty much majority of competitive players stopped playing" what did he say before? It had to be pendulum era right?😂
Dayum you can tell that one hit home, remember its just a game and that's all it should be, and if it is then thats ok 👍 don't worry about what others say
I stopped playing because low vision couldn't read text on cards anymore 🤣🤣
Did you at least get the mom’s number?
Perfect radio voice for Yu-Gi-Oh so it worked out
Its insane that adults nowadays will watch football or netflix and drink beer all day and consider it a hobby. Like go and actually play something, just because you are older doesn't mean you should not have hobbies. Most people would be offended but I tell them be offended and quit being ignorant to the newer generation and indulge.
You got to stop caring what other people think honestly. Their was this one older guy in his late 50s or 60s at my locals when i was younger and he told me that he played yugioh is cause he wanted to do something with his grandson and bond with him, so he learned how to play yugioh and he was pretty damn good i might say. If that mom gives you more trouble just use the seal of orichalcos my guy
I quit because people spend 20 minutes on 1 turn racking up negates and counting the negates out loud.
100% sounds like a personal problem. Besides yugioh days are sundays.
