Funnily enough, there is a special ruling in the Official Yu-Gi-Oh! rulebook that to resolve "Yu-Jo Friendship" your opponent doesn't need to actually shake your hand but can simply accept the concept of shaking your hand. They made it specifically to make sure that strategy of forcing your opponent to forfeit or shake your gross hand can't be used.
If i recall correctly Flying Elephant's effect is a reference to a duel in the anime where Pegasus told a kid exactly what to do to win in a tournament
Just like dark sage, this was one of those cards based on the anime where they had to figure out a gimmicky fuck-off effect that somehow makes the plays in the anime legal.
19:42 funnily enough, there is an actual reason. This is a complicated reference to the anime. During the show, we watch the character Pegasus dueling bandit Kieth. As a flex, he wrote down instructions and grabbed a kid from the crowd to duel for him and the kid beats Kieth by attacking with flying elephant. As an homage, they made this card and gave it an effect that could theoretically win based off the events shown.
A possible explanation for how the kid won is that (as shown when Joey faced Mai) flying monsters have an advantage over monsters on the ground, so they could have just given Flying Elephant an attack boost against earth monsters and called it a day, but instead went the extra mile and designed a weird alternate win condition for the card.
For Magi Magi: Kazuki Takahashi did NOT die for you to call his art AI-generated. Her stars are on the "wrong" side because she's an Xyz monster, and her card looks too clean because Mitch made her with a card maker, since there's no English version of this card (only Japanese). Also, the letters on the circle are in Cyrillic (Russian/Ukrainian/etc. letters).
they had to state a ruling for yu jo friendship where you only have to accept the "idea of a handshake" so you can just say ok lets combine the life without actually shaking hands
19:50 I believe it was used in the anime for the sole purpose of styling on someone by giving a kid instructions and having said kid win against a grown man even though that kid never played.
Kinda, so pegasus in the anime styles on bandith keith by doing what you said, but at that point in time there was NO WAY the kid could win from the position on board, so this card was created years later to explain what the kid did to win
@@jeronimoledesma6804 No way... In the current rules. Duelist Kingdom rules were a mix of card game and DnD so there was some way he could have... Maybe. Yugi did shoot the moon in that tournament to make the tide recede after all.
I have to comment on the Yu-Jo friendship card. There's at least two layers of pun in it. 1. The first syllable of Yugi and Joey/Jōnouchi's names. 2. Yūjou/ Yuujou is the Japanese word for friendship
toons can attack directly unless your opponent controls a toon monster, but you have to pay 500 lp to attack with them, and most of them (aside from toon dark magician girl) can't attack on the turn they're summoned. the anime made it so they couldn't be destroyed by battle except with another toon monster. Also, you didn't remember Pegasus paying lifepoints because the lifepoint cost wasn't part of the effect in the anime when Pegasus was the main villain. It wasn't until season 4 that toon world got the drawbacks of the real effect and toon monsters were able to attack directly (since direct attacks weren't a thing during season 1)
The signature on true exodia is from the creator of yugioh kazuki takahashi (rest in peace), all cards that he drew after stop working directly into the yugioh series has it (btw he was such a good artist all of his latest arts before he passed were a treat to the eyes) Also the reason why flying elephant effect is like that its because it is...an anime reference, its the card that pegasus teach a kid how to use to defeat and humble bandit keith on a tournament
the art of magi magi magician girl and true exodia were made by takahashi himself that's why these cards haven't been released to TCG yet because he refused them being censored.
Why are XYZ monsters like that but not the ursarctic synchros even tho those function like dark synchros from the anime which do have the stars on the wrong side.
@@algotkristoffersson15 Xyz monsters have their stars on the left to make it clear that they're not levels, because Xyz do not have levels. Ursarctic synchros do still have levels as normal.
@@driftwisp2797 sure. But the subtraction thing is similar to how dark synchros in the anime work. And those have NEGATIVE levels. And because subtraction is non-communicative, that means you can just subtract in the other order to have the ursarctics get negative levels. So why don’t they when they are clearly intended as being based on those.
Funfact about Magi Magi: Its not in the TCG, because Konami for the TCG likes to censor all the arts that include an Ankt, but the creator of the game refuced to censor any Dark Magician Girl art again so it never came out in the TCG
I mean, we have an archetype of Warriors based off of Hanafuda cards and at least three stuffed animal archetypes. A greeting card-based engine, if not a full archetype, is completely reasonable.
Funfact Magi Magi Magician girl is a card that will most Likely never make it into the TCG. As the late Kazuki Takahashi flat out refused to Censor any more Dark Magician Girl Alternate Arts/Counterparts.
He refused to do so and no employee is allowed to alter his artwork. They would have to make an alternate art version of the card and censor THAT or convince them to localize it as-is.
Flying elephant is actually the greatest card art ever made and its just scanned improperly and it has like 13 different holographic properties and turns into your mome flipping pancakes in the kitchen if you look at it in a certain way. Why Mitch chose the Asian English card art is beyond me Unless they did it after he died, Magi Magi cant ever get an real English printing
you can pull it off by giving it to opponent... with a trap card in a deck that can also just return the summoned exodia pieces to your hand and win that way. it has a function but useless in a way that there is no reason to play it
@@RaineBans i mean yeah, most cards can be used in a beneficial way, but most of the time they are so situational and specific that they are basically useless
I love how if you know the channel, and you know yugioh, you didn't even need to see the effect in any of these to know which card Mitch wanted to use.
Konami does not have the rights to modify Kazuki Takahashi's art As such they cannot release it in the TCG with censored art. Additionally, they do not have the right to release the card in the TCG uncensored without permission from the Kazuki Takahashi estate
the light on hero's rule 2 is coming out of where the graveyard is on the duel disk, and the card's effect is to negate an effect that targets a card in the graveyard.
every disaster in convulsion of nature can be described as a convulsion a convulsion is a violent, irregular movement (generally of the body but can also be used to describe things like natural disasters) so every single disaster occurring is a convulsion of nature
I know it probably won't show up in this video, but I want an entire paragraph to be the question and the answer be something like Nirvana High Paladin.
I love the choices here... Get Your Game On! is a meme for a reason. They eventually started giving actual cards as prizes. Yeah... Pyro Clock of Destiny is super vague and needed a ton of rules to help judges figure out the interactions it has. So for cards like Final Countdown and Doom Virus Dragon that just look at the turn number, it will tick the counter down one, but for cards like Golden Sarcophagus that directly states when the timer will tick down, the Pyro Clock has no effect on it. Heck I think in the original JP translation, it might say that the effect will only tick down a single counter on the field. Fun Fact: In the anime, Pegasus clowned on Bandit Keith using Flying Elephant. Note: Many cards that came to the actual game got nerfed in some way. Look at the Egyptian Gods, who are clowned on for dying to everything cause the actual card game did NOT make them immune to everything... except Obelisk I think? Note 2: Magi Magi Magician Girl has not been released in the TCG. Cause the original artist (the creator of YGO) refused to have his special arts censored (which is why it has such different art). It was a promotional card for Shonen Jump.
In addition to affecting the turn count for Final Countdown, Pyro Clock of destiny affects the turn count for a few other cards including Swords of Revealing Light, Nightmare Steelcage and the Virus cards
The thing behind Chaos Witch actually is a Synchro Monster called Chaos Beast, in thematics with the Chaos Archetype as a whole, has two heads, one dark, and one light.
My immediate thought with Pyro Clock is that it would help with cards like "Different Dimension Capsule", "Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth" or "Future Fusion" which say "in X turns, special summon this card", to make things happen quicker?
Knowing yugioh I got to play this backwards. I saw the cards and then got to guess which one of them you'd pick to give the effect of. "Okay, the jankest card here is Convulsion of Nature, so I bet he'll go with it."
Since literally every Toon monster has "If Toon World is on the field, this monster can attack directly" you'd think they could have just put "Toon monsters can attack directly" on Toon World, but for some reason they didn't.
"Why is this a trap card?" Yeah, that perfectly describes the majority of trap cards in this game... Hell, a good chunk of them were turned into Spell cards in Duelist of the Roses...
So an extra note about that Handshake story. So after that whole debacle got spread about making your hand nasty as hell, they had to make an official ruling on the card to state that your opponent can agree to the CONCEPT of a handshake and not actually shake hands. Also to add onto that Magi Magi Magican gal card, It's one of the few cards that we'll never get outside of japan because (the late) Kazuki Takahashi refused to let anyone censor the artwork on her to remove the Egyptian ankh and star symbol on her, which for some reason they always remove from DMG for religious reasons Also Im giving Tyler and nico a point on the Toon world question just cause you do technically pay 1000 life points for chicken game...just that it actually does something. And to Kyle just cause I love my boy Gusto Squirro
I believe for yu-ho frienship you just need to verbally accept the handshake to not force players to interact for the very reason of having dirty hands or the inability to do for physical reasons
Pyro Clock is actually unique in that in the OCG its effect is different: it moves the turn tracking of 1 card forward by 1 turn. Regardless its still pretty bad
Magi Magi Magician Gal and True Exodia are both cards drawn by Kazuki Takahashi. After his death, Konami has stated they aren't going to print the cards drawn by him, because of legal issues, to various effects. This creates some problems with cards that are actually legal for play in the west/the TCG, such as "Magician of Black Chaos MAX" which is not legal in Master Duel because of it being a Kazuki Takahashi art only card.
Half the time i was like "I watched the anime. Numeron cards were used and didn't do this. Ccapac apu did weird things, so yes. etc" but i still had no idea WHY those effects are like this
The original batch of toon monsters couldn't be summoned without Toon World being on the field, and if Toon World was destroyed while they were on the field they would all be destroyed. Plus, the first batch had to pay 500LP to attack. Later there were more Toon monsters created that could be summoned without having Toon World on the board. The big upside for Toon World for Toon monsters is being able to attack directly. But just destroy Toon World and they get destroyed.
You guys should react to Buddyfight cards. They have some of the most ridiculous card names, designs & descriptions like ‘Pinnacle of Martial Arts, Duel Sieger "God Eclipse"’, “Aspiration Existence, Bal Dragon & Jackknife”, “Happiness By Pudding, Drum”, “Paramount Neo Dragon, Drum the Maximum Future”, “Deity of Buddyfight Realm (Self-Proclaimed), Goddo ⭐️Funayama” & last but not least, “Strategic Arms, Dangerous Vegan Curry”. And those are just the MONSTER cards.
And then the Purgatory Knights spell cards that have sentence-like names. We Traverse The Blood Soaked-Demonic Path. Purgatory Flame That Resides Within The Body. Pride To The Sword, The Blade Never Dies. Purgatory Hymn, The Cursed Being Of The Faraway Homeland. Crush That Body And Sustain Mine.
While hilarious seeing the gang's reaction to ridiculous Yugioh cards I think it'd be cool to see reactions to some of the really cool cards the game has in a quiz. Cause Yugioh isn't a complete dumpster fire...usually...some of the time...very occasionally
"Toon" monsters were kind of a joke. They're an entire archetype of monsters that can't attack the turn they're summoned to the field to mimic Magic the Gathering's "Summoning Sickness" mechanic. Even in the early days when they came out "Toon" monsters were nowhere near good enough to be competitive also due to them needing "Toon World" on the field to get their best effects and destroying themselves if "Toon World" gets destroyed. At best there were people running around with 1 or 2 copies of "Toon Summoned Skull."
A little context for Pyro Clock of Destiny, it affects cards which counts turns to resolve some effect these includes cards like Deck Devastation Virus and Time Magic Hammer former of which banishes monster for Nth turn based on due roll count.
I really like how atleast yugioh’s bad cards tend to be weird. Like in mtg there are very bad cards but most of them are like 2 mana 2/2 no effect, were there’s card that are just that but with better stats or a very strong effect
2 days ago I thought about this for the first time in months and then thought, surely there wouldn't be a new video within a few days of me having that exact thought for the 7th time in a row, right? And yet here we are
Nico in with the save on the pronunciation of convulsion. I totally knew what effect the first set was gonna be about the moment we saw the options haha.
Besides Final Countdown, there are some well known classic cards that _should_ be affected by Pryo Clock of Destiny. Off the top of my head, you've got Golden Sarcophagus, Swords of Revealing Light and Nightmare Steel Cage. Now, as for why it is a Trap and not a Spell, probably so you can't spam multiples (or the same recycled copy multiple times) easily within the same turn. Oh, and in case it could make Turn 1 (No Battle Phase permitted) into Turn 2 (has a Battle Phase). *Note:* I don't remember it being competitive when I played, but I tapped out in 2009. ^^'
Was never competitive and probably never will be either. Unless you somehow are able to activate the card turn 1 and are able to make that possible in an OTK deck, turning it into an FTK deck xD
According to the (OCG Rulings at least) database, Gold Sarc isn’t actually affected: “Cards that resolve when the 2nd Standby Phase after activation is reached, like ‘Gold Sarcophagus’, are not cards that count turns.”
@@emerald_espeon because it cares about hitting the trigger during the standby phase. Pyro clock doesn't change or move you through phases, it just changes which turn the game is currently on
@@emerald_espeon Thanks. Was going by memory, but the wording specifies Standby Phases. So it is possible I am wrong about all of them (no time to look it up, snuck this reply in).
Pyro clock of destiny has some niche uses in the game. But specifically only for cards that count turns. If there is an effect that say on the "n"th blah blah do something, pyro clock of destiny can be used the turn of or prior to the resolution of the effect, to prevent the effect from occuring. So say a card banishes something and says on the 2nd standby after this card is activated return the monster to the field. You can activate pyro clock of destiny during the second draw phase to move the turn count forward one Which becomes the 3rd standby phase, which means the monster does not return to the field. It can also be used for cards like the virus cards to move their count forward, or something like swords of revealing light to move it's turn count foraward. But if a card says something like your opponents next turn, or the next standby phase or whatever, then pyro clock of destiny literally does nothing.
Seeing these sets of cards as a Yugioh player there's also the question the audience can play of, "Which insane effect will be the one chosen?" because some of them like Kotodama or True Exodia also have wacky effects. "You just rotate the deck and that changes nothing." There is a card called Card Shuffle which allows you to pay 300LP and shuffle one player's deck, nothing else. In most situations this does change nothing about the game state, since unless a card has been manipulated to a specific location in the deck (a bit of a rare action) there's not any real change. Card Shuffle's existence is part of the reason why it's against the rules to shuffle your deck unless a game action forces you to do so. Yu-Jo Friendship due to the grody hand thing actually got a ruling saying "you don't actually have to perform a handshake, you just have to accept the concept of a handshake." Toon World originally did have an effect, in the Japanese version of the game, but it was so cumbersome and clunky that it got scrapped in an errata. The original effect also required you to pay 500LP each turn or it would be destroyed, and when Toon World is destroyed you would regain all the LP you paid for the activation and maintenance of Toon World.
19:49 actually Flying Elephant is pretty new in terms of the game itself It was an anime only card for decades before it finally got printed and it's effect is a reference to the anime where it was used for the purpose of dunking on someone so it sucking makes some sense losing to a good card isn't really getting flexed on Omg the bonus question that's hilarious
No, originally they *WERE* forced to shake the hand or forfeit, konami just told them to fuck off after they did the thing and decided they didn't anymore
@@nhbons783 Problem is people started to do gross shit to their hands so that you couldn't play that card, and so Konami was forced to change rules around it. Not the first time the players being troglodytes ruined cards for others. I'm usually not that harsh on people, but players refusing to shower for days in order to make their opponents quit and other gross tactics are things that have actually happened in this cursed community.
@@literallynoone9923 To accept a handshake you must shake their hand. Offering a handshake is the physical action of holding your hand out to be shook. Accepting a handshake is the physical action of taking their offered hand in yours and shaking it. They had to add an official rule to the game stating you could simply state you are accepting the handshake instead of ACTUALLY accepting teh handshake.
@@ChaosDragonImagine if physical contact had to be made. Any time it's played in Master Duel, it would be an automatic win since no one would be able to actually fulfill the condition of accepting the handshake.
Hey, wannabe keyboard warrior here. I'm just glad that out of all the cards you guys chose to NOT dislike, it was Toon World, as toons are my favorite card archetype 😁
The card art for True Exodia and Magi Magi Magician Gal were both drawn by Kazuki Takahashi, the creator of Yugioh, which is why they look kinda "off".
I tie with nico and could of tie with tyler but one of the random comments under the video mentioned the yugi joey card so did not wanted a easy score. I picked gutso because it have a zapper on its head so i can see it eating a nut that explode some monster.
The pyro clock and flying elephant are cards made based on the original anime, their contrived and bad because they were designed to for the episode they were in basically.
Pretty sure Pyro Clock of Destiny was meant to be used with Clock Tower Prison in the Destiny Hero deck. After 4 turns you no longer take battle damage while Clock Tower remains on field.
If im thinking of the right card magi gal was actually never released outside of japan because the localisers would have to censor it and takahashi basically said "if you change this artwork I'll kill you" but said in a far nicer way
I feel like this one was kinda easy for the guys. Regardless, I think having a quiz where you get a bunch of cards from the same archetype or are related somehow having a fake one among them would be fun. Just another excuse to have Mekk-Knight Avram back and make them decide which evolution of Avram is real lmao
Funnily enough, there is a special ruling in the Official Yu-Gi-Oh! rulebook that to resolve "Yu-Jo Friendship" your opponent doesn't need to actually shake your hand but can simply accept the concept of shaking your hand.

Since literally every Toon monster has "If Toon World is on the field, this monster can attack directly" you'd think they could have just put "Toon monsters can attack directly" on Toon World, but for some reason they didn't.
There is an explanation for the flying elephant, it is the card that Pegasus tells a kid to use to defeat Bandit Keit in the anime in one move

0:32 oh shit, Mitch has been replaced by an AI already and it's gliching
The clock was mainly played to speed up the enemies lightswords.
The 20 turn card was too slow even in classic yugioh.
"Why is this a trap card?"
Yeah, that perfectly describes the majority of trap cards in this game...
Hell, a good chunk of them were turned into Spell cards in Duelist of the Roses...
The other options for yu-jo friendship could be respect play, united we stand and two-pronged attack 😂
chicken game is actually a different view of the art for "pole position", though overdrive is in the art for both
So an extra note about that Handshake story. So after that whole debacle got spread about making your hand nasty as hell, they had to make an official ruling on the card to state that your opponent can agree to the CONCEPT of a handshake and not actually shake hands.
Also to add onto that Magi Magi Magican gal card, It's one of the few cards that we'll never get outside of japan because (the late) Kazuki Takahashi refused to let anyone censor the artwork on her to remove the Egyptian ankh and star symbol on her, which for some reason they always remove from DMG for religious reasons
Also Im giving Tyler and nico a point on the Toon world question just cause you do technically pay 1000 life points for chicken game...just that it actually does something. And to Kyle just cause I love my boy Gusto Squirro
True Exodia be like "silence, I kill you".
I believe for yu-ho frienship you just need to verbally accept the handshake to not force players to interact for the very reason of having dirty hands or the inability to do for physical reasons
Pyro Clock is actually unique in that in the OCG its effect is different: it moves the turn tracking of 1 card forward by 1 turn. Regardless its still pretty bad
Magi Magi Magician Gal and True Exodia are both cards drawn by Kazuki Takahashi. After his death, Konami has stated they aren't going to print the cards drawn by him, because of legal issues, to various effects. This creates some problems with cards that are actually legal for play in the west/the TCG, such as "Magician of Black Chaos MAX" which is not legal in Master Duel because of it being a Kazuki Takahashi art only card.
Half the time i was like "I watched the anime. Numeron cards were used and didn't do this. Ccapac apu did weird things, so yes. etc" but i still had no idea WHY those effects are like this
The original batch of toon monsters couldn't be summoned without Toon World being on the field, and if Toon World was destroyed while they were on the field they would all be destroyed. Plus, the first batch had to pay 500LP to attack. Later there were more Toon monsters created that could be summoned without having Toon World on the board. The big upside for Toon World for Toon monsters is being able to attack directly. But just destroy Toon World and they get destroyed.
Mitch do be sounding like a robot this episode
Mitch is actually dead, and who we see in the video is actually an AI re-creation.
@@DaemonRayge I would never die, I love you all too much!

You guys should react to Buddyfight cards. They have some of the most ridiculous card names, designs & descriptions like ‘Pinnacle of Martial Arts, Duel Sieger "God Eclipse"’, “Aspiration Existence, Bal Dragon & Jackknife”, “Happiness By Pudding, Drum”, “Paramount Neo Dragon, Drum the Maximum Future”, “Deity of Buddyfight Realm (Self-Proclaimed), Goddo ⭐️Funayama” & last but not least, “Strategic Arms, Dangerous Vegan Curry”.
And those are just the MONSTER cards.
And then the Purgatory Knights spell cards that have sentence-like names.
We Traverse The Blood Soaked-Demonic Path.
Purgatory Flame That Resides Within The Body.
Pride To The Sword, The Blade Never Dies.
Purgatory Hymn, The Cursed Being Of The Faraway Homeland.
Crush That Body And Sustain Mine.
While hilarious seeing the gang's reaction to ridiculous Yugioh cards I think it'd be cool to see reactions to some of the really cool cards the game has in a quiz. Cause Yugioh isn't a complete dumpster fire...usually...some of the time...very occasionally
absolutely loved this episode lol onward to the next video!~
"Toon" monsters were kind of a joke. They're an entire archetype of monsters that can't attack the turn they're summoned to the field to mimic Magic the Gathering's "Summoning Sickness" mechanic. Even in the early days when they came out "Toon" monsters were nowhere near good enough to be competitive also due to them needing "Toon World" on the field to get their best effects and destroying themselves if "Toon World" gets destroyed. At best there were people running around with 1 or 2 copies of "Toon Summoned Skull."
The next yugioh quiz needs to be nothing but Xyz monsters.
A little context for Pyro Clock of Destiny, it affects cards which counts turns to resolve some effect these includes cards like Deck Devastation Virus and Time Magic Hammer former of which banishes monster for Nth turn based on due roll count.
I'm here for the Yugioh Weirdness and the Digimon coolness and today I'm out of Digimon stuff to watch babyyyyyy
Don’t worry, Magi Magi * Magician Girl is a weird card to us too.
I really like how atleast yugioh’s bad cards tend to be weird. Like in mtg there are very bad cards but most of them are like 2 mana 2/2 no effect, were there’s card that are just that but with better stats or a very strong effect
2 days ago I thought about this for the first time in months and then thought, surely there wouldn't be a new video within a few days of me having that exact thought for the 7th time in a row, right? And yet here we are
Pyro clock of destiny makes sense when you play yugioh and know the effects
Nico in with the save on the pronunciation of convulsion. I totally knew what effect the first set was gonna be about the moment we saw the options haha.
I know Mekk-Knight Avram is a normal monster, so it has no effect, but the text "Check THIS out!" is stupid.
Besides Final Countdown, there are some well known classic cards that _should_ be affected by Pryo Clock of Destiny. Off the top of my head, you've got Golden Sarcophagus, Swords of Revealing Light and Nightmare Steel Cage. Now, as for why it is a Trap and not a Spell, probably so you can't spam multiples (or the same recycled copy multiple times) easily within the same turn. Oh, and in case it could make Turn 1 (No Battle Phase permitted) into Turn 2 (has a Battle Phase).
*Note:* I don't remember it being competitive when I played, but I tapped out in 2009. ^^'
You could also use it to accelerate the summon of Great Moth cards.
Was never competitive and probably never will be either.
Unless you somehow are able to activate the card turn 1 and are able to make that possible in an OTK deck, turning it into an FTK deck xD
According to the (OCG Rulings at least) database, Gold Sarc isn’t actually affected: “Cards that resolve when the 2nd Standby Phase after activation is reached, like ‘Gold Sarcophagus’, are not cards that count turns.”
@@emerald_espeon because it cares about hitting the trigger during the standby phase. Pyro clock doesn't change or move you through phases, it just changes which turn the game is currently on
@@emerald_espeon Thanks. Was going by memory, but the wording specifies Standby Phases. So it is possible I am wrong about all of them (no time to look it up, snuck this reply in).
The moment they print a Link monster with arrows, Yugioh is a board game because suddenly it matters where you put your card
Pyro clock of destiny has some niche uses in the game. But specifically only for cards that count turns. If there is an effect that say on the "n"th blah blah do something, pyro clock of destiny can be used the turn of or prior to the resolution of the effect, to prevent the effect from occuring. So say a card banishes something and says on the 2nd standby after this card is activated return the monster to the field. You can activate pyro clock of destiny during the second draw phase to move the turn count forward one Which becomes the 3rd standby phase, which means the monster does not return to the field. It can also be used for cards like the virus cards to move their count forward, or something like swords of revealing light to move it's turn count foraward.
But if a card says something like your opponents next turn, or the next standby phase or whatever, then pyro clock of destiny literally does nothing.
Mitch forgot his Millennium Hat for the Yu-Gi-Oh quiz.
I was simply not at my full power :(
Why does he have so many almost identical hats with the only difference being the text anyway?
@@algotkristoffersson15 to reach my full power :)
Honestly the sad thing is flying elephant is one of my favorite cards. Love the design, stats and bs silly effect.
Flying elephant is acting up
nico really outing himself as a natural-born ygo player in the opening minute
Seeing these sets of cards as a Yugioh player there's also the question the audience can play of, "Which insane effect will be the one chosen?" because some of them like Kotodama or True Exodia also have wacky effects.
"You just rotate the deck and that changes nothing."
There is a card called Card Shuffle which allows you to pay 300LP and shuffle one player's deck, nothing else. In most situations this does change nothing about the game state, since unless a card has been manipulated to a specific location in the deck (a bit of a rare action) there's not any real change.
Card Shuffle's existence is part of the reason why it's against the rules to shuffle your deck unless a game action forces you to do so.
Yu-Jo Friendship due to the grody hand thing actually got a ruling saying "you don't actually have to perform a handshake, you just have to accept the concept of a handshake."
Toon World originally did have an effect, in the Japanese version of the game, but it was so cumbersome and clunky that it got scrapped in an errata. The original effect also required you to pay 500LP each turn or it would be destroyed, and when Toon World is destroyed you would regain all the LP you paid for the activation and maintenance of Toon World.
the reason flying elephant does that is because it did something similar in the anime
11:34 The microwave bit is hilarious, and a classic! 😂😂
Flying elephant has a foot by its trunk that has no connecting leg.
"It's So Obvious, It's Impossible To Guess!" The Quiz
19:49 actually Flying Elephant is pretty new in terms of the game itself
It was an anime only card for decades before it finally got printed and it's effect is a reference to the anime where it was used for the purpose of dunking on someone so it sucking makes some sense losing to a good card isn't really getting flexed on
Omg the bonus question that's hilarious
The funny thing about Yu-Jo Friendship is that the way it's worded means they don't physically have to shake your hand, just accept the concept of it.
No, originally they *WERE* forced to shake the hand or forfeit, konami just told them to fuck off after they did the thing and decided they didn't anymore
@@nhbons783 this was never a rule. only ever something people thought of after the fact, if that rule didnt exist.
@@nhbons783 Problem is people started to do gross shit to their hands so that you couldn't play that card, and so Konami was forced to change rules around it. Not the first time the players being troglodytes ruined cards for others. I'm usually not that harsh on people, but players refusing to shower for days in order to make their opponents quit and other gross tactics are things that have actually happened in this cursed community.
@@literallynoone9923 To accept a handshake you must shake their hand. Offering a handshake is the physical action of holding your hand out to be shook. Accepting a handshake is the physical action of taking their offered hand in yours and shaking it. They had to add an official rule to the game stating you could simply state you are accepting the handshake instead of ACTUALLY accepting teh handshake.
@@ChaosDragonImagine if physical contact had to be made. Any time it's played in Master Duel, it would be an automatic win since no one would be able to actually fulfill the condition of accepting the handshake.
Rodenut: when the jokes write themselves
Omg the intro was absolutely amazing.
Hey, wannabe keyboard warrior here. I'm just glad that out of all the cards you guys chose to NOT dislike, it was Toon World, as toons are my favorite card archetype 😁
Toons have always been a joy
The card art for True Exodia and Magi Magi Magician Gal were both drawn by Kazuki Takahashi, the creator of Yugioh, which is why they look kinda "off".
flying elephant is how pegasus destroyed bantid keiths career by telling a lil kid how to beat him.
All toon cards can attack directly. No need to activate 1000 life points. As long as toon world exists.
I tie with nico and could of tie with tyler but one of the random comments under the video mentioned the yugi joey card so did not wanted a easy score. I picked gutso because it have a zapper on its head so i can see it eating a nut that explode some monster.
The pyro clock and flying elephant are cards made based on the original anime, their contrived and bad because they were designed to for the episode they were in basically.
Capacpo is upgrade on hard drugs
2:48 This card can be used with spy deck. You're welcome
Im addicted to those yugioh videos
very upset you didn't mention or play the compilation of Goku saying "EARTHBOUND IMMORTAL CCAPAC APU"
3:10 Only reason I knew this one is because I've played that card in my first ever deck. It is funny every single time
Yes! Mekk-Knight Avram's Back! *Check* THIS *Out!*
Pretty sure Pyro Clock of Destiny was meant to be used with Clock Tower Prison in the Destiny Hero deck. After 4 turns you no longer take battle damage while Clock Tower remains on field.
There’s an in-archetype card that gives clock tower prison 2 turns and it’s a spell
@@Zombiekilleryamato Ah thats what im mixing it up with
yeah we need more of these but each times the effects just gets longer untill like epsiode 6 and its just all super long pendulum monsters
If im thinking of the right card magi gal was actually never released outside of japan because the localisers would have to censor it and takahashi basically said "if you change this artwork I'll kill you" but said in a far nicer way
ANOTHER FUSION ROUND PLEASE
19:28 I just looked up True Exodia, unless you are able to somehow put it (and others) on your opponents side, it is trash
I feel like this one was kinda easy for the guys.
Regardless, I think having a quiz where you get a bunch of cards from the same archetype or are related somehow having a fake one among them would be fun. Just another excuse to have Mekk-Knight Avram back and make them decide which evolution of Avram is real lmao
