@@blizzyyt2281 Yeah, but it's one thing for a villain like Pegasus or Marik, or just a prick like Kaiba, to cheat. But the Pharaoh cheated more than anyone else and so blatantly while supposedly being the good guy.

Karl, you'll be happy to know that every time the Pharoh aka Yugi uses the "Heart of the Cards", he's actually using his Egyptian King powers to draw literally whatever card he needs and best fits his current scenario and this is canonically confirmed.
I am a monster then as in duel links .... I blended a majorly Blue eyes supported deck to run with Guarddragon Madark , Stardust and Overlord Dragon.... if blue eyes can get the job done then I have other options. it just gets worse with silvers cry and call of the majestic blue eyes quick play spells and an enemy controller
@@Medbread In universe? No. Magic cards, however, were quite rare in the original in universe version of Duel Monsters, as a result building an Exodia deck was damn near impossible for most, and since you didn't need to sacrifice monsters in that version of the game and there was only 2000 LP to start off, I assume no one that ran a true Exodia deck had the time needed to realistically gather all 5 pieces. TL;DR No, it's just getting 5 different, specific cards in your hand was hard before battle city.

Lol did this really happen in that show? I only watched it a couple times. I was just commenting about how the card game seemed to be the way to settle everything in that show. Seto kaiba is a awesome name though.
@@oneDonly more or less, yes. Also yeah, It's a pretty dope name. In the 5D's series there is a guy named Jack Atlas.. Which is like, the coolest name in the whole series.
With Magic the Gathering, they have different leagues of play: Standard, extended, legacy, commander, singleton, etc. To play in a Standard event (pretty much every thing from weekly FNM at the local game store to pro circuit tournaments) you have to have a standard-legal deck. Since whole sets get dropped from Standard at a time, Wizards of the Coast essentially forces players to buy a whole new collection of cards every year. Like, "Yeah, the $600 deck you perfected last year, no good now. Sell it for less than you spent, and start over."
Standard used to be more affordable until they started making all these must-have mythic rares for it. At this point with the way they design cards, even Legacy feels like Standard used to, with the whole meta being turned on its head every few months. When you remember Legacy is a format where turn one combos are not considered "too good", this says a lot. They can't keep doing this and expect the game to remain healthy and fun.
@@himonightbreeze Metagames move very quickly now so once people figure out what decks are good they'll pick them up very quickly. If WotC did a good job at balancing sets and cards this wouldn't be a big deal because there would be plenty of strong strategies instead of just two or three. Instead they're shitting the bed every time they release a new set.
Blue eyes technically isn’t crap even today, it’s literally still the standard for a great monster stat line. Also it won a championship not too long ago 😉
To Brad, getting back into Magic is fairly easy. You can play Vintage and Modern, you can play Commander and if you want to be competetive, you can play MTG Arena, where you get the best competetive environment for free. Also, you can always draft. 10€ per person, you play all night long and keep the deck. Do this 3-4 times and you already are back where you left.
There are some good early cards, blue eyes and dark magician actually have a lot of support. hell if you got in with the GX era elemental heroes are actually getting more support in the next set. Also goat format exists and it’s basically old school yugioh format
Blue Eyes has a modern archetype and was played for several years recently. It's basically the only OG card that's still viable at any competitive level.
I remember when I was in college, I find my old Yu Gi Oh deck and brought it in to play a game with some of the guys I knew played it, and pretty much the same that happened to Karl happened to me. I go maybe two moves before the guy I was playing utterly annihilated me. All I could say after was, "That was vulgar!" But he was a good dude and we both had a good laugh. I haven't played the game since.
Blue eyes is actually still pretty good especially since they put out a bunch of support cards. Plus at 3000 atk it was BS in early game but now it's somewhat under curve or on curve with support
3:31 aCkTuAlly.... you need to sacrifice 2 lower-tier monsters to summon a card like Blue eyes. When will the lies end, Karl? Off to the shadow realm with you.
@@Treaxvour Didn't the game start at 4000? Though my sister and I played a home rules version where full hand was enforced. Draw to fill hand at end of turn.
As a competitive yugioh player, I actually was getting annoyed hearing about your Man-Eater Bug Armor strategy.. Then you immediately called me out on it and made me feel like a dickhead. Well played Karl.
@@zakd2124 I used to play Strikers myself, but since Kagari went to 1 I decided my best bet is to use Salads. I also pulled 2 Cynet mining at the DANE sneak peek so that factored into my decision. Glad to see someone talk about modern yugioh on here
here is an interesting fact the original cards of yugi oh actually are so wide spread that they break most strategies because they have so many base uses like monster reborn as i prefer the older cards because of this reason
@@paulcarmi8130 you're saying digimon being basically one of the oldest example of isekai for basically majority of western anime fans is not a different concept than pokemon?
The reason Yu Gi Oh tournaments limit the deck size is because of one player who had around 2,200 cards in his deck, and would troll any opponent by using cards, that shuffle his deck. It took two individual people to carry the deck.
I feel slightly attacked digimon was the greatest out of all of them every season except adventure 2 (minus examon paladin mode)and fusion was bloody amazing
@@dracyo3564 Examon paladin mode..... "Yeah let's give the digimon so massive that it's impossible for him to remain in a server the power of Omegamon cuz fk it why not?!"
My favorite card is raging flame sprite. Because if you play it right you can eat away at your opponents life points in a humiliating way. (But not anymore)
Magic: The Gathering includes a fair number of cards that exist solely as promotional material, including "1996 World Champion". Notably, none of them are legal in any format, and few are particularly powerful, but it is hilarious.
Hey Karl great episode! Brad you can play your old magic cards in modem or legacy tournaments/games those formats are designed specifically for older magic cards.
"Weird owning an 18 foot tall humanoid monster." I mean, the idea was that they were also people and partners rather than possessions... Also nobody tell him to Google Gardevoir.
@@samuelstannard730 the bes theory for Dex bull is that the 11 year old kid we play is being lazy and submitting whatever he makes up to get his credit.
There's actually a lot of powerful Blue Eyes and Dark Magician support making them pretty good to play again (Then again I haven't played in about 2 years, so that's probably not the case anymore)
6:55 Yu-Gi-Oh itself actually did this exact thing not once, but twice, with Cyber-Stein and Crush Card Virus - between November 2004 and July 2005, there were only eighteen Cyber-Steins printed in the game, all of them being tournament rewards for either placing highly or buying packs of cards at the event, and Crush Card Virus only had forty copies in existence between January and July 2007, though there was a sneak peak event where six copies got leaked even earlier than this. Both of these cards were so powerful and game breaking that drawing them was basically guaranteeing your victory, causing in Crush Card's case for people to use their prize cards to win even more prize cards, and there were players that had 3 copies of Crush Card Virus (the most copies you can play of any single card in your deck) and they are the only two prize cards to ever be Forbidden in Yu-Gi-Oh's history.
my favorite magic the gathering moment is the time were in the middle of a game with cards from unstable, the guy played spike, tournament grinder, and stood up and went to the storefront and bought emrakul for $13. He won that game, and what makes it even better was that it was a casual game for fun.
The most powerful card in any collectible card game is, of course, the credit card.
Nope, most powerful card is "Single Dad's Credit Card", i lose to that thing every tournament
Only if you have good credit. Without good credit your credit card does nothing.
I'm surprised you didnt bring up the time kiba won against yugi by threatening to kill himself so yugi would concede
To be fair, he had a legit reason to want to win so badly (so he could save his brother), but yeah.
But taken out of context, you have a grown ass man threatening to kill him self if he doesn’t win a children’s card game and that’s fucking hilarious
JzanderN Well, they both had good reasons for wanting to win- Kaiba wanted to save Mokuba and Yugi wanted to get his grandpa’s soul back.
@@TheRedBloodedge I mean he does have a blue eyes white dragon jetplane and there is a card called kaibaman

You should try speed dueling, it's a slower format of yugioh that uses old cards. Stuff like blue eyes is actually really good there.
Hasmond wait speed is slow⸮
This video actually sums up my issues with the Yu-Gi-Oh meta nicely
I feel slightly attacked digimon was the greatest out of all of them every season except adventure 2 (minus examon paladin mode)and fusion was bloody amazing
Examon is a badass red dragon. You are likely talking about Imperialdramon. Otherwise I agree with your statement
@@dracyo3564 Examon paladin mode..... "Yeah let's give the digimon so massive that it's impossible for him to remain in a server the power of Omegamon cuz fk it why not?!"
Your maneater bug tactics is hilarious!
Screw the rules, I got money
I still vaguely remember the 4Kids dub saying “Reborn the Monster” whenever someone in the show plays Monster Reborn.
My favorite card is raging flame sprite. Because if you play it right you can eat away at your opponents life points in a humiliating way.
(But not anymore)
Michael! :'D happy to see him pop up out of nowhere for that AI fight
digimon is the only anime that holds up even today (from the ones cited in the video)
Was not expecting Micheal from Rooster teeth to be in this video
Magic: The Gathering includes a fair number of cards that exist solely as promotional material, including "1996 World Champion". Notably, none of them are legal in any format, and few are particularly powerful, but it is hilarious.
Blue eyes is still surprisingly solid, but it's mostly cause he has an absurd amount of support cards to build him up.
Digimon is actually a good show.
Love how all these years later and people still love Michael getting Exodia one turned lol
“Screw the rules I have money” Seto Kaiba
Aw man Karl you should talk about the one time Yugi tried to light a man on fire in a family diner
Don't forget feeding a classmate to rabid hentai monsters by a shipyard(?).
Digimon was the best, mate. Walk it off, mate.
"The 6 other people who like digimon liked this"
@@nxkkota_6072 No !!! The community is way stronger !!!
@@poissonmulti-taches2742 Ah yes, the 7 other people.
Digimon is best isekai. :D
Anyone else want Brad and Karl to do like live-streams of something along those lines of them just getting drunk and playing card games?
Digimon and Yugioh had the best-opening themes
Digimon theme is more replayable imo
Hey Karl great episode! Brad you can play your old magic cards in modem or legacy tournaments/games those formats are designed specifically for older magic cards.
I'm feeling way too salty about Karl dissing beyblade and digimon
You and me both dude
"Weird owning an 18 foot tall humanoid monster."
I mean, the idea was that they were also people and partners rather than possessions...
Also nobody tell him to Google Gardevoir.
Alakazam has an IQ of 5000. Still only remembers 4 moves at a time.
Same 😂
@@samuelstannard730 the bes theory for Dex bull is that the 11 year old kid we play is being lazy and submitting whatever he makes up to get his credit.
I love the fact that now Michael Jones is a part of Fact Fiend
There's actually a lot of powerful Blue Eyes and Dark Magician support making them pretty good to play again (Then again I haven't played in about 2 years, so that's probably not the case anymore)
6:55 Yu-Gi-Oh itself actually did this exact thing not once, but twice, with Cyber-Stein and Crush Card Virus - between November 2004 and July 2005, there were only eighteen Cyber-Steins printed in the game, all of them being tournament rewards for either placing highly or buying packs of cards at the event, and Crush Card Virus only had forty copies in existence between January and July 2007, though there was a sneak peak event where six copies got leaked even earlier than this. Both of these cards were so powerful and game breaking that drawing them was basically guaranteeing your victory, causing in Crush Card's case for people to use their prize cards to win even more prize cards, and there were players that had 3 copies of Crush Card Virus (the most copies you can play of any single card in your deck) and they are the only two prize cards to ever be Forbidden in Yu-Gi-Oh's history.
Shared this in a massive Yu-gi-oh FB group. I think they will enjoy this or I accidentally exposed Karl to a hell he is not ready for...
Say hello to Zodiac
Dude, I love that cup. I remember having one of those back when.
Don’t forget the time kaiba literally built a time machine just to beat the pharaoh that possessed Yu-Gi in a children’s card game.
he actually went to the after life
my favorite magic the gathering moment is the time were in the middle of a game with cards from unstable, the guy played spike, tournament grinder, and stood up and went to the storefront and bought emrakul for $13. He won that game, and what makes it even better was that it was a casual game for fun.
Fun fact there's a card called Tyler the great warrior and only one copy of it exists it was made for make a wish
Artwork based off Trunks from DBZ
The blue eyes white dragon itself is a weak card but has soo much support that you can still consider it a bit overpowered.
aAAAaAHhH!!! Exodia! That’s not possible!!! No one’s ever summoned him!
Being addicted to yu gi oh as a kid is so damn relatable. Brings back memories.
Karl, you would be a great commander player in MTG.
Oathbreaker*
Mate watching Karl play edh would be hilarious because we all know hed play Kaervek or Sen Triplets
Lmao I'm so glad they bright up the clip from Michaels UA-cam channel. Although it's weird seeing stuff from him outside of achievement Hunter
