The worst part is how many hand traps are Tuners for no reason, making it splashable in basically EVERYTHING.

@@hyoroemongaming569 Even in its current state in MD I'm able to make boards of three Shangri-Ira and an Arise-Heart in a single turn (though it's rare). attaching Big Bang to Arise-Heart then using its banish effect lets me summon back Fenrir from a Shangri-Ira + a Unicorn from deck with Shangri-Ira in standby phase. Unless the opponent has some sort of non-archetype removal it's an instant win. 3 Shangri-Ira + 3 Kash monsters on field = 9 zone locks, I'll already have a zone locked from Riseheart as well so that's every zone locked by turn 2.
Would've been cool to see what every participant was playing and how many people were playing Tearlaments vs how many were playing Kashtira/Dragon Link etc
Agreed, I bet the number of tear players was much higher than any other deck. Just look at Snake-Eyes with 0 tops, it might be worse than full power Tear, but still one of the strongest in history, yet I doubt anybody played it, mostly because almost everybody is burned out with it.
I missed out on those days sadly. Now I have to play with the butchered kash we have in master duel. Interesting to see just how strong it was back then tho.
@@Hellsbells305 I've played a bit of unlimited Kashtira with Diablosis in a few random duel rooms that had an unlimited ruleset. I felt bad using Diablosis because the first time i used it i was playing against a random level 12 and he was probably sat there wondering why he had no monster zones and half his deck was banished😭

Tear just sacks into what it needs when it feels like and throws when it doesn't, which isn't that interesting either way outside of seeing what the stupidest thing it can lose to is.
snake eye is a really good engine but it doesn't do EVERYTHING in the game. The only reason it is good is because other decks have been hit so hard and some power cards are straight up gone. You saw how cracked that dragon link player was? if Snake eyes gets even more support it might actually be able to step up to the nonsense that is pure mill the universe tear 0 or lol you have zones?

Awful Tear match up, almost auto lose to Tear, can't play shifter so it's terrible, not to mention full power Kashtira SE only dorminate now because Tear or Kash no longer exist, if Tear is still around today SE wouldn't even be rouge level, it's only strong because Konami already nuked every deck that could easily beat it
09:47 Ive been saying this forever, I never played nor wanted to play Dragon link, but man is it satisfying to see good D-link players cracking boards, or even better, making theirs through multiple interruptions, or simplified gamestate this also goes for pendulum magicians, and bird up, decks that really show the difference between us casuals who can pilot them to some success, and real pros who do wonders with these three
You know I was in the shower earlier and thought to myself: If there was a point where deck size wasn't a actual rule at some point in yugioh's history, why didn't anyone just have a exodia deck with only 5 cards. You'd win everytime without fail. And then I got out of the shower and thought that was a dumbass question.
@emilianoflcn Na, there was no maximum or minimum stated in the rules for deck size until 2008. Before then there were only extra house/event rules. Other than that you could have any sized deck you wanted.
Here’s a fun idea: A Yu-Gi-Oh Tournament, but you can ONLY use cards that were on the Forbidden/Limited List at some point or another. (And if a card was errata’d beforehand to make it weaker, you play the card as though it were never nerfed.)
I have an idea for a series. No banned cards and all ban list limits go up 1 limit meaning banned is limited to 1, limited to 1 cards are now limited to 2, and limited to 2 cards are now unlimited. Keep this format in comparison to the master duel ban list.
some madlad topped with vaal week 2 and got farfa triggered he is going to ban potentially every vaal card vaal community just keeps winning and im here for it
Love the series, dislike the editing! Let me choose what to look at, instead of the constant facecam zoom-ins. Missing a lot of action because of it too. Also, in a video where banned cards are allowed, why not insert them as a png at the side whenever they come up, so you can read their effects? I had to constantly pause and look up cards in other tabs, but hey, at least I got to see farfa's smile on fullscreen every 10 seconds.

that roid deck is basically when someone tells you they play a viable DM deck and then when they play it, you realize they only put 2 DM cards iin the whole deck and the rest of the cards are completely different and don't even need those two DM cards to work or help.
I thought you would ban all of the cards in the deck, not the archetype. That way generic or out-of-archetype cards would go as well. Like, if you're playing Kash with Pot of Greed and Called by the Grave, Ancient Fairy Dragon (for some reason), those would get banned alongside all of Kash. Also it helps lower the Extra Deck pool
Kinda spoiler for 1 topcut deck i guess your intro makes me sad because you banned basically the entire tear archetype. in case anyone wonders he banned all the tear extra deck monsters, perlereino and all tear names except scheiren. so we will never know how a tear deck with just key cards banned would look like because he made it unplayable instantly :( i feel like the 2 bossmonsters and reinoheart and maybe perlereino could have been enough for week 1 bans.
@@Cryptus777Last CARD, not last archetype, standing. It‘s okay to fast forward the banning process but just straight up killing any playable version of the archetype in the first go means that a ton of weaker yet still a few weeks later revenant variants of the deck (such as what Tear is currently in Md/Ocg/Tcg) will never be seen in this series.
@@daedalus5253 They have been banning entire archetypes and cards that mention the archetype last season.

I thought you would ban all of the cards in the deck, not the archetype. That way generic or out-of-archetype cards would go as well. Like, if you're playing Kash with Pot of Greed and Called by the Grave, Ancient Fairy Dragon (for some reason), those would get banned alongside all of Kash.
Also it helps lower the Extra Deck pool
Pity there are a bunch of cards unplayable in master duel since they can't be crafted.
Love to see that even at maximum power DW can't resolve Danger effects beneficialy
I used to love getting revenge on runick with diablosis
Chat, is this real?
This is real.
No
13:13 Missed opportunity to called it Forti-2
25:08 Farfa - "That actually works really well with Runicks and Bystials."... I mean, yea... Josh literally won a YCS with that deck.
Kinda spoiler for 1 topcut deck i guess
your intro makes me sad because you banned basically the entire tear archetype. in case anyone wonders he banned all the tear extra deck monsters, perlereino and all tear names except scheiren. so we will never know how a tear deck with just key cards banned would look like because he made it unplayable instantly :( i feel like the 2 bossmonsters and reinoheart and maybe perlereino could have been enough for week 1 bans.
"You banned basically the entire Tear archetype"
Thats the point of the series though..... they did this since the beginning of season 1 ep 1.
@@Cryptus777 its not the point of season 2 tho.
@@Cryptus777Last CARD, not last archetype, standing.
It‘s okay to fast forward the banning process but just straight up killing any playable version of the archetype in the first go means that a ton of weaker yet still a few weeks later revenant variants of the deck (such as what Tear is currently in Md/Ocg/Tcg) will never be seen in this series.
We do know what it looks like, its MD tear and its still good.
@@daedalus5253 They have been banning entire archetypes and cards that mention the archetype last season. This is basically the same principle so far as well, so I don't get what you're trying to tell me. Like we didn't really saw that last season too so it is not surprising to me that they do it again.
I miss the old style season from the last few episodes. Fun times 😢😢😢
Now it's gonna be Kash vs Tear for a long while and then Soon Branded overwhelming everything else layer on
They got killed hard, now they can't be pure and have like, 7 cards legal total between the two
i cant believe y'all are complaining already, its a fun format.
@@uuh4yj43 same tbh, specially since the two strongest got killed already
I hope someone does an hour long synchro fusionist spreadsheet combo soon.
Tearlament STRONGEST. Rest - Weakest
No banlist format is nice and all, but I wonder how "no negate/floodgate/burn format" would look like.
The answer: good old Yugioh like it was supposed to be from the start. The only interaction we need are battle traps.
has anyone tried a floodgate only strategy yet? with all the draw cards i imagine it could work
Did you not see the True Draco game?
With the graceful and pot of greed im surprised that tearelements didnt use painful choice
You can't craft it in MD
@@linusschonbachler1350 ah ok that makes sense ty
Damn, we should have watched a game of Salamangreat that topped
@@arbyaenax it was a top deck duel (4 turns) against tear, not thay interesting
Not that any of these decks are bad, but I'm surprised there's no snake eyes halq pile.
How can I get the yugioh card wall poster?? I love those 😍
If entertaining me to sleep this game sure makes my AE86 wish seem like I’ve already won and lost because I don’t own it
