Wonderful gameplay, love the explanation of each step and the thinking process. You were absolutely right, the longer videos are great! I would love to see you duel against opponents where you don‘t know the deck and their options, just to learn from your thinking process
Thank you so much, I’m really glad you enjoyed the gameplay and the explanations! As for your suggestion, in the early matches of this tournament, I didn’t know much about my opponents’ decklists (I didn’t even know what deck the first one was playing). There are actually only a few online tournaments where you don’t know your opponent’s deck, and these are typically the ones with 55-minute rounds instead of 48 hours. Unfortunately, I often can’t participate in those because they tend to start around 7 PM here in Europe and run until 1 or 2 in the morning, so I don’t play them very often
Yes, the decklists are posted afterwards, but not the replays. Before each round you can watch all your opponent’s replays for that tournament (this was a 48 hours round tournament). So at this point I had 11 replays to get info about my opponent’s list and what you see in the video is the result
The commentary was a bit too long in my opinion. If you want more players to watch it from start to end you should speed up some explanations and concentrate on the important ones. Moreover you overlooked the Substitoad tributing an opponent monster targeted with Soul Exchange which is not a common interaction and probably would have deserved at least a mention. This is my feedback 😉
I understand what you mean, and I appreciate the feedback! It’s definitely difficult to say what’s normal or unusual across the board. For example, tributing an opponent’s monster with Soul Exchange and using it for Substitoad’s effect is fairly well-known among players who regularly run at least one frog at locals. That’s probably why I overlooked mentioning it, even though I can see how it might be considered a unique play to others. In this video, I really wanted to focus on strategic planning, turn by turn, based on reading the opponent’s cards and potential plays given what I had available. In frogs, this is crucial because you’re often not very active during the opponent’s turn, so it’s important to anticipate many different scenarios during your own turn. I personally find that this is the most challenging aspect, not just for me but for many other frog players, so I prefer to spend more time on that. Also, realizing the video was getting long, I decided to skim over some more general aspects that aren’t specifically tied to frogs, like reading the opponent’s set spells and traps. I gave more of an overview at the end rather than discussing it moment by moment (especially in G2). In any case, my main focus with these videos is to give as much of the “pure” reasoning as I can, from my perspective as a long-time frog player, while omitting small details. Personally, when I watch longer videos (that I find interesting), I tend to break them up over a few sessions. In the case of matches, I might pause between games. Thanks again for your input! 😉
@@FrogsPOV It's okey bro, I tried to do a deck explanation of my vayu turbo list when I topped in the rbet season 2, and honestly I've got brain burned. You're making good edison content.
I personally like the lengthy commentary. Really helpful for newer players

Great series of videos! Very helpful and informative
@@Tinfoilcat24 Thank you!
how are you able to see the decklist of opponent during the match I thought they were only posted afterward

@@FrogsPOV wow you put it together yourself then, that is impressive haha lots of work
