Bro, That fucking GOAT deck with Magical Scientist, Emperor (ban list deck) can cheese out wins tho lmao. My fav deck to watch on this. They don’t really lose to handtraps either
Without Judgment Spellbooks didn’t stand a chance unfortunately. Ash Blossom pretty much beat the deck single-handedly and Droll was just an extra no on top of that

How equalized would it be if this would have just been a hypothetical "judgment is unbanned and Spellbooks get access to modern cards?"

@@GodKiller97 No offense bro, but I’ve been watching this channel for years so I’m well aware of what the tournament is about lol. Even if Spellbooks had access to modern cards, it still wouldn’t change the fact that the deck is super susceptible to Ash and Droll. Yeah you might out Ash or Droll every blue moon with CBTG or Crossout Designator, but the odds of that consistently happening is slim. Not to mention the more cards you run to stop handtraps, the less back row you can run which interferes with the strategy of protecting Jowgen. The only thing that would’ve kept Spellbooks in the game and given them a chance was resolving Judgment which any sensible player that knows the matchup is not going to let you do.
@@lyndellduality1169 while I do agree with Ash, there’s crossout designator and droll and lock is something not everybody of playing right now (not even in OCG where they already have Splights). But yes the deck is more fragile than Swordsoul, which I still think has the advantage since it is arguably the most consistent deck in the game’s history. It just would have been less one sided if Spellbooks were given access to modern cards
Not that spellbooks were gonna win, but swordsoul literally drew the out every time, skill issue ig On a side note some misplays in game 1, there's no reason to use the solemns so early, might as well hold them for the extra deck summon, and torrential should've been held for the longyuan summon since even without hand knowledge, that's what chixiao searches most of the time, so that game could've gone differently at least
Lithium for the love of God please stop pretending like Spellbook has any business going up against any deck after 2015. Time and time again you put it in these ridiculous matches and it's always an extremely one sided stomp
Yeah, I'm sorry but Spellbooks and Rulers have no business being on the bottom anymore, especially for the next banlist cup when we get Splight and Tearas added.
Spellbook here could've definitely made game 1 go differently and the striker player was horrible in the first match It's not surprising fot an easy to play deck like swordsoul to do well, lithium and whoever else plays here don't have time to learn how to properly play every deck
absolutely agree, you just have to remember that this is 2013 spellbooks with no modern cards. if they were all unbanned people could just play an engine of judgement, not saying they would. D Rulers are a better example imo, the 2013 is weak for todays standards, but maaaaybe they could enable some degenerate dragon link stuff today
@@CRO-Palacinke-D.C I feel like if rulers were released today fully off the banlist, they would still only be used at one copy, maybe two of some of them each as extenders in dragon link similar to the baby chaos dragons, maybe also including one copy of each of the baby rulers. As a deck, pure rulers wouldn't be very good as their hard OPTs and lack of broken rank 7s would hold them back. As easy extension from the GY though, they would absolutely break D link by recovering from most disruption and giving tons of followup next turn if the board is dismantled.

I could maybe see a scenario similar to the knowledge draw engine we've seen in years past where you loop judgment, secrets, knowledge, and maybe end on a fate+jogen+followup draw as an addition to an end board in something that plays a decent amount of spells, similar to how DPE was used. It'd be pretty clunky, but a solid payoff as long as it was an engine and not the deck's sole reliance like it was in 2013 spellbooks. I definitely agree w you there.

Then again, this is just my thoughts. The ocg has limited Judgement in the july ban list, we need see how good it will be.
Not surprised when the meta Spellbook deck was designed to take on a deck whose only normal summons were hand traps. I'm sure a modern Spellbook deck backed by stuff like a Dogmatika engine(providing much bulkier Spellcasters) or the Magician Souls package would fare a lot better, but still struggle against the more recent spell based decks.
Modern spell books just ends on secret village + jowgen as their best board, and loses immediatly going 2nd. Spellbooks place in the meta is as a engine for pendulums
Sure, this is what I wanted to do today, watch one of my favorite decks get roflstomped into the dirt by one of the most powerful decks from our time. And people say judgement is broken, judgement could have come back with ash and the deck would barely be tier 3.
@@Greg501- I'd be happy to be proven wrong, but I agree. The main problem is just you can search all the spellbooks you want, but they do so little in today's game. Power to boost 1000?

God I never rooted so hard against Lithium than I did here against Spellbooks, even if I knew the most likely outcome. Chaos 3-2, they will sack their way to victory.
Lithium is so cracked, he can turn any card in hand to whatever he wants xD double ash and souble droll, muzz be nize =') damn, I am just a watcher, but I got really salty lol
welp, just adds more fuel to the fire that full power swordsoul is the best deck of all time, still standing by that statement and would not be surprised if they won the whole thing. I will say though they might have a harder time with certain decks that are around their powerlevel, but damn they've got a strong chance at winning the whole thing.
I'mma have to stop you right there. You haven't seen TRUE POWER until you've faced my OG A-Team. Not even OG SS stands a chance, and that's no cap. I can prove it.
This one wasn't even close. Swordsoul just had an answer to almost everything that Spellbooks could throw at them. They just stood no chance. Giving this one to Toadally HEROs 3-1. Chaos may get one lucky win here, but they're no match for the power of the now newly banned in the OCG Toad (RIP Frogs).
I feel like next year instead of mashing all years together they should be split into two brackets, 2002 to like 2015-16 and then 2017 to now. Years ago it was fine but powercreep has gotten to the point that the older decks will never win they’re basically just filler until the new decks face off again.
@@khoatyrone5644 and when top 16 comes around decks like inzektor and infernity will never win there’s literally no point in them being in there against adamancipator or swordsoul.
Good match - I think spellbooks had a chance without that double ash game 2 or that defeats ring drill game 3, but that’s yugioh lol - great match as usual 💯
if spellbook got that spellbook of judgment through game 1. there was also real potential. jowgen fate and the other traps are really hard to deal with for any deck. but, what you gonna do if 2 of the main handtraps just say no to spellbook.
honestly any deck before 2017 is going to absolutely get crushed and is not even fun to watch at all. i think these tournaments should only be with deck post 2016 only. nekroz,spellbook,dragon rulers,mermails,tele dad,burning abyss,evilswarm, tellerknights they all are too slow and don’t main 15-20 hand traps.
Fuck no, I don't wanna watch only post 2017 combo wank fests. One of the coolest things with Lithiums cross banlist tourney is getting decks throughout ALL of Yugiohs history. Keeping it divided into 2 brackets is good and pretty fair.
and some ppl had the nerve to argue spellbooks were gonna do something just cuz judgement was back in ocg lol, they can have the card at 3 and they are not competing with the powerhouses of today meta, yeah sure they can steal a win or two with the little lock the have going on, but at the end of the day it's all meaningless (unless new powerful support comes out)
I think some of yah are legit stupid. The card pools are different they have no handtraps besides Maxx c and would play cross out for ash and if judgement resolve it's clip. The side decks for both decks clear showed who was gonna win.

They committed some of their resources already and practically lost them.
@@mian6788 that's not true at all drop Maxx c and they either plus you or they end why let your opponent get 2 or 3 specials off before dropping Maxx c again playing it passively the point of Maxx c is to make them either end their turn or feed you pluses idk why you bothered even commenting you get Maxx c drop it immediately get pluses it it makes your opponent end I'm sorry but I'd drop it immediately especially knowing a deck has to special a bunch of times get pluses or lose 1 card and make em end not a hard concept Maxx c isn't a passive card and should not be played like one
2013 vs 2022 why wait for the C??? Never wait for it you play an old deck drop c immediately that deck specials 100% don't wait to drop c ughhhh bugs me people complain about Maxx c don't even know how to Play it
It was a good run, but I won’t be watching any other CBC. You’ve done a fantastic job lithium! You are a great content creator! But Yugioh has become so broken that I can’t stand watching this aberration.. spellbooks feels like a goat deck, it’s ridiculous, Konami didn’t do a good job with power creep.. anyway, thanks for everything bro. C ya
Ehh, idk. I'm trying to get invested in this year's CBC, but I'm not feeling it. The newer decks just feel too alike. Watching the same "spam board, drop Ash Blossom" on repeat gets tiring, you know?
Really disappointed really wanted to see how spellbooks end board matched up against a meta deck of today. Maybe these series should have no side decking to make it more fair.

It's kind of sad that "Balanced" Current decks are just so much better then decks that use to be all time greats even years after they came out
Yeah, it's funny that Swordsoul is just a 'pretty good' deck in the current format. And would destroy Spellbooks so much.
I don't think it's sad that the decks became stronger after 10 years. Decks from 5 years ago are comparable if not better than modern decks
And next time on incredibly one sided fights...
Wow that just HURT! :/
Oh no... it's only 6...
Oh no...
Lmao 6 minute video. I wonder who won…
filthy
All I literally saw is handtraps win this lmao the spellbooo deck didn't even get to play??? Like how can anyone feel like they won when their literal archetype wasn't even the one that won them the game?? 😂😂😂
Swordsoul Tenyi is such a disgusting deck & I’m playing a 60 card version of it with the P.U.N.K engine on MD. Lol GG Spellbooks.
Swordsoul BEST DECK!
This is bullying
Eat jowgen
Damn another 3-0, gotta root for Swordsoul to do it to Dinos next
Who runs with Swordsoul is noob
Swoswoswoswoswo…..
so disappointing to see swordsoul win. so sick of that deck. rip spellbooks
Handtraps op ban handtraps
I hate seeing people play Maxx c so passively you know modern link deck will special 1000x if you open Maxx c drop it immediately don't wait for them to special once or twice if you drop it immediately that ash wouldn't do anything if you get Maxx c drop it don't fuck around and wait for an ash
if you drop it immediately they can still ash it and go off, wtf are you talking about
@@mian6788 wtf are you talking about he didn't have ash and he held c until it was too late it's hilarious all you noobs cry about Maxx c don't even know how to play and funnier you cry about c and yet the game nowadays has 20+ broken hand traps that are way more broken
@@mian6788 you don't wait for the opponent to special twice before dropping Maxx c you drop it immediately that's literally the point of the card 😂🤣🤣🤣 let my opponent special 2 or 3 times before attempting Maxx c stupid period maybe learn something before commenting???
@@thenightstalker6165 Don't use all those insults and emoji's and say I'm 'crying'. It makes you seem like an angry 10 year old kid.
In most cases, your opponent will stop their combo when they get Maxx C'd and don't have Ash or Called By. So the point of holding Maxx C is that you stop your opponent mid-combo. They committed some of their resources already and practically lost them.
@@mian6788 that's not true at all drop Maxx c and they either plus you or they end why let your opponent get 2 or 3 specials off before dropping Maxx c again playing it passively the point of Maxx c is to make them either end their turn or feed you pluses idk why you bothered even commenting you get Maxx c drop it immediately get pluses it it makes your opponent end I'm sorry but I'd drop it immediately especially knowing a deck has to special a bunch of times get pluses or lose 1 card and make em end not a hard concept Maxx c isn't a passive card and should not be played like one
All the right timing handtraps, poor spellbooks
2013 vs 2022 why wait for the C??? Never wait for it you play an old deck drop c immediately that deck specials 100% don't wait to drop c ughhhh bugs me people complain about Maxx c don't even know how to Play it
It was a good run, but I won’t be watching any other CBC. You’ve done a fantastic job lithium! You are a great content creator! But Yugioh has become so broken that I can’t stand watching this aberration.. spellbooks feels like a goat deck, it’s ridiculous, Konami didn’t do a good job with power creep.. anyway, thanks for everything bro. C ya
I mean there is still the pre 2015 dekcs in the Yugi bracket...
1st!
Ehh, idk. I'm trying to get invested in this year's CBC, but I'm not feeling it. The newer decks just feel too alike. Watching the same "spam board, drop Ash Blossom" on repeat gets tiring, you know?
Yugioh 2022?
Really disappointed really wanted to see how spellbooks end board matched up against a meta deck of today. Maybe these series should have no side decking to make it more fair.
