I am so happy those "The True Name" clips exist. Who needs combos to setup the top of the deck when you can just will the card you need to the top of your deck.
such is the power of the Millennium Top Hat
I am convinced Hardleg is just a Yugioh protagonist who instead of saving the world, wants to make funny videos and I respect the hell out of him for it! Every upload is something that brightens my day
this is the real dueltainment
he actually nows how to fight any opponent and got an omni deck for instant turn one victory, he jut does't uses it for the sake of the game
A good editor is worth their weight in gold. CVit is a good editor.
He's a good creator as well just needs to find something he was as passionate about.
😅😊😅😅😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
😊😊
"Great beast of the sky hear my cry!"; proceeds to draw Gameciel; correction; "Great turtle of the ocean hear this commotion!". Anyways, picture me impressed you actually dragged Ra to Plat1 (even tough only 1/4 of Ra got there it is still impressive).
"Behemoth of the sea, respond to my plea!"
Your new editor has been doing a great job adding to your bits. Making the videos look more modern and adding that extra bit of comedy. Keep it up.
I mean the deck you got into Plat 1 with had 11 God Card cards, 8 Numeron cards, 7 Kaiju cards and lots of staples, so I think you can call it a streamlined God Card deck.
All in all nice deck, you built a deck that actually profits from Ra, that's pretty impressive.
Ran something that was just to turbo out rank 10s with a mismatch of trains/eldlich/slime. No one ever expected the otk of either the train combo or a big ra.
Numerons were used by a god in Zexal so one could argue they're technically god cards.... Or something....
10/10. What a good day to be a believer.
"Holy god hear my cry!"
"Best I can do is a giant sea turtle hard leg."
"Egyptian god? Nah, have a turtle."
13:20 Joe playing that 13 card extra deck before it was cool!
lol before we even knew what Banquet Burn was
"WHO PLAYS DEEP EYES!?" Kaiba does hardleg, Kaiba does.
The mad man did it, I don't care how high you got in the ranks, I'm very excited to see those god decks
1:07:43 The reason Blaze Cannon is always treated as a Blaze Accelerator card is due to the OCG names. Blaze Accelerator is simply called "Blaze Cannon" and the TCG Blaze Cannon is called "God Blaze Cannon".
ra is my favorite volcanic card
Heart of the cards too strong at 28:41 lol, loved that pure excitement
Dang hardleg, this deck is really cool! Its almost like a puzzle, trying to get to the boards you want to make
One might say a millennium puzzle
Can’t wait to see the red dragon deck after seeing how this one went so far, hopefully it’s a little easier to get to plat with than this
For red dragons i recommend chaos space to search the baby dragons, and even teching skull meister because the quick play resonator searcher can search it
I wonder if Hardleg will use the Gemini red eyes, I doubt it, but weirdly enough there are more cards in that archetype geared towards Gemini monsters than what anyone would find acceptable, it's pretty much a waste of support, really
I love the cutaway gags in this 😂 the L+ratio bit really got me
That blind "True Name" callout with Guardian Slime was absolutely insane. A true Egyptian God user 👏
Joe, who spent years making fun of YGOPro duelists not running full extra decks, runs a 13 card extra deck as a deliberate strategy.
You never know where life will take you.
Hardleg Joe: "That's right! I'll sacrifice god!"
"I'm not playing anything jankier than the Egyptian gods"
Says the man who played ojamas later.
This was a wild rollercoaster on par with the OG anime and the editing was fun and spicy!
That Final Duel was actually anime as hell this entire episode was pure gold
whoever is editing this needs a raise
29:00 was legitimately insane
Protagonist Powers :)
That Engraver of the Mark you got as a gift is so cool!
As for the Egyptian God road to Platinum, I gotta say, I'm super impressed that you blind called The True Name right TWICE! That alone is a victory in itself.
I appreciate that you take the time to explain things.
Some other Yugi tube streamers like Dzeeff tend to use a lot of jargon and not fully explaining what’s happening assuming the audience has religiously followed the yugioh meta for the past 20 years and there’s no way to read the tiny print on the screen to try and follow along
30:55 was pure gold. "We're fine, there's nothing to worry about. I'm just a helpless... oh what the fuck is this". I saw that at around 3am and I laughed so hard
This is fr my favorite thing you’ve done. I love the long ass videos I have never been more excited to see a notification. Keep it up boss
I'm not a fan of the God cards but getting True Name right without setting it up (more than once even) was fucking wild.
Looking forward to the RDA video though since it's one of my favorite decks.
Hell yeah love this series so much
Waiting for ancient gears to rule the world
Bless the editor, also very curious to see how the archfiend one is going to go
Great Hard of the Leg, hear me beg!
I don’t really know what to beg for, I just wanted to rhyme…
Beg for more content
2 hours of godlike (literally) jank, we got christmas very early this year
1:14:30 "Chat! _It's_ _a_ _mirror_ _match_ !"
Great Beast of the Sky, Dear God Why.
Took me a few days to finish this episode, but it was well worth the watch. Thanks for the video Joe!
„Great beast of the sky, hear my cry. _Uharg.“_
Holy fuck did they mess up Ra.
Not only does the real card lack the stat gain from the tributed monsters, the life point to ATK transfer can only be activated on normal summon (and isn't reversible).
Edit: _and it's an optional when effect, oh my gawd._
His current attack effect can be better though. Use quick play spells to normal summon him in the middle of the battle phase and then run over an empty field with 7900 atk. One of my favorite ways to finish a duel ever
@@kjb5128 Is this how all effects triggered by a Summon work?
That _is_ neat, but they could also just make this ATK gain a regular quick effect. This might have been a bit too much in the past, but at least by now it wouldn't really matter.
Though, as proven in the video above, the way things are now have some benefits, too, such as circumventing Skill Drain.
It's depressing to think how only today I was able to find enough time to finish watching the episode x_x
But thank you and Cvit for it! It was a blast to watch. No, not as the ra spell card.
Looking forward to what you're able to figure out for archfiends this month
You get a like for calling True Name right with a guess for a Slifer, that's epic
This video took me 3 nights to finish and it was hilarious
You getting those two blind true names off was fantastic.
Just as in the last video, seeing the evolution of the deck was great and insightful, since you always give your reasoning for your changes (also, this had an all important duel against Dark Magicians, too!). This makes the show similiar to what a deck, but improves on it since the deck isn't static and there is an overall goal. I love it and am looking forward to the next episode in a month :D
Hardleg this was fucking awesome. I didn’t believe, but you showed me. You showed everyone.
Editing was great also.
"Great ball of the air be there... Damn it!" LMFAO 🤣
I love this series! Your protagonist powers are crazy :)
During one of the GX Duel Links events, the one revolving around Old Man Jones and the Sacred Beasts... There was an entire section of cutscenes Konami decided to not translate. Then again the yet to be released in the TCG Salamangreat XYZ at launch had no text on it at all... so... eh... this game came out in Beta effectively.
So it wasn't just me!
Nume-Ra, my God, that's hilarious. Also bang-up job Cvit, Sphere Mode jokes always appreciated.
I thank you for having MBT on Chaos Draft because thats how I started watching this channel, so now I can have weird dreams caused by a bearded guy in a top hat chanting Ravioli at me.
You're welcome :)
That True Name call in duel 3 was hype af. Also: "I will not play anything more jank than the Egyption Gods." *Proceeds to play Kozmos*
I'm at the halfway point, and I may have to pause to go re-watch your fan archetype for "the Mark", because it shared your love of that one random card so well
This is why I like this channel so much.
9:07
HL: can i get an UR opponent tributing card on the right side of the pack
MD: we got opponent tributing card on the left side of the pack
The left side of the pack: ....
Fun Vid. Editor putting in mad work.
Seeing numeron OTK reminds me when someone used it against my Flower Cardians. Lightflare hard shuts down that strategy which is amazingly entertaining to watch unfold
I put this to watch before going to sleep and now i can't because i can't stop laughing at Ra missing the timing, holy shit, truly the stupidest rule in YGO
Amazing deck Hardleg, i enjoyed every one of your duels. There is also school obedience build for Egyptian gods with mound of bound creator,or more trap based control deck utilizing joker knights cards(though that one runs only slifer usually).
That was amazing!
What a journey. And that final attack for game, fantastic.
-Its almost like its from anime or some shit-
Please don't take this the wrong way, Joe, but I find your videos incredibly pleasant to fall asleep to
Your voice and manner of speaking is just so comfy
You're welcome :)
Duellogs level of comfy
20:20 .....this is me waiting for my turn 90% of the time in Yu-Gi-Oh!
Did I just hear hardleg sing "this calling" by all that remains?! A protagonist with the calling!
ER is kinda chill right now I have time to watch 😁
duuuuude that true name X'D god that was so based!
I'm so surprised that you made it to plat 1 lols congrats it was a hilarious and fun video
Damn, that player at 1:27:47 must have made a _face_ when you pulled out the God support.
I guess there's _one_ benefit to Ra not having the ATK gain from his tributes himself.
19:52 ZOOMS in on himself.....it's Dritrons.
The editing is gold.
Holy Moly that was fun to watch and iam happy it's not million video it's just one beauty video
28:43 truly a main protagonist moment
Edit: 37:43 bro just
Very fun video
The first like 15 minutes just feels like I’m watching a gambling addict spiral downward.
There is the Arcana Knights God support, using Thunderspeed summon to tribute summon Sphere mode using your opponent monster during their turn is fun.
The editor is Genius 10/10 great video
Shoutout to the last DM player for not scooping when you Droplet'd their Linkuriboh, idk if I'm just paying more attention after the "do 15000 damage" daily was added but it's rare for me to see the actual finishing attack go through
Love red dragon archfiends looking forward to syncro spam but think extra deck end up packed
Also banquet needs a ban i am fed up of banquet burn and needing to alter decks to specificly stop dieing before a play can be made
Oh wow. I never thought I'd hear someone reference All That Remains in a yugioh video. The Fall of Ideals is still one of my favorite albums.
The sheer amount of plot armor in this video is insane.
true name calling the slime was epic lol
Still remember that duel against "Yaman" since the stream. It was so funny!
Bruh this is legit, putting in hella hours for a video
57:38 Ah yes one of those classic, timeless quotes said by Yugi before finishing off his opponents
As soon as I saw the initial deck with 15 cards I was like, "h-he knows though right?"
Getting to the end
That was just oof seeing that finally come around XD
1:13:18 CyDra player looks to have had an easy lethal by using Nova to reborn a CyDra, attack with Megafleet+CyDra (2400+2100), then use Nova's effect to banish the CyDra to boost its attack to 4200. That's over 8k damage and Hardleg was only at 6800
Cvit making me nostalgic for VHS tapes.
@22:00 classic master duel. Reason Kaiju’s became a staple in every deck 😂
Dude was that the robot beat from SpongeBob that Mr Krabs jammed out to on the radio? When guardian slime was turning up in the club 😂 based as hell
That’s a sick card very impressive.
When I got into Plat V with a pure Egyptian God deck, I packed my deck with more trap cards (stuff like Torrential Tribute, Ring of Destruction, Crackdown, and Trap Trick) to disrupt my opponent. Ring of Destruction causes damage which can get Guardian Slime on the field and Trap Trick can bring out the trap of your choosing, which includes Metal Reflect Slime.
Of course, the Numeron Ra combo is still far superior.
The “SPHERICAL” took me out holy shit
this new series is a lot of fun, but I would deff like to see episodes cut into weekly progression with the deck
If you're running sphere mode plus a bunch of kaijus then I would reccomend running Owner's Seal. Also maybe consider adding Malefic Cyber End Dragon and some Rank 10s.
If you can hit rank 1 with Gods, you can hit rank 1 with anything! Great stuff
P.S: Also did you made 9k gems from the XYZ event? that's amazing
Congrats to making plat 1 Joe!
Those The true name calls were on point
Love the God deck. I’ve played pure Egyptian Gods up to platinum 3. Crystal girl is a good tech to search for guardian slime. Ring of destruction is another good tech for some interruptions and to trigger guardian slime yourself
I actually never thought to tech in any search power to get guardian slimes since I usually run 3 guardian, 3 reactor, 3 metal reflect so I have 9 cards I can draw into to make a god slime (albeit in a roundabout way via reactor’s battle phase effect to set and use a metal reflect that turn). Now that I know that’s an option I might revise my deck.
Have you had much success dealing with interruptions and negates? I mainly rely on the common truth that 90% of the people I play against don’t know what mound of the bound creator does and will waste resources trying to target or destroy my high level monsters confused why it’s not working.
@@SovekOnivris I run 3 reactor, 3 guardian, & 2 metal reflect for the slimes plus 2 crystal girl and 2 angel 01. It’s still a Janky deck so if they’ve got too much interruption it’s a lose. But if I’m able to set up mound of the bound plus god slime I’m usually in a pretty good position. I also try and save ancient chant to interrupt them building a board on their turn while using sphere mode to break their board on my turn. Maxx C is the only hand trap I run so that also helps to slow them down or let you draw what you need
@@robertavery8527 Maxx C has saved my ass from bricking enough times I have considered running it at more than 1 but every time I do I always draw all of them at once. Has let me summon Slifer with 12+ cards in hand more than once before though.
I do run some other hand traps since I feel the deck benefits from whatever you can squeeze. I keep 1 ash to try and interrupt combos and my edopro version was running battle fader and effect veiler at 1 but i never pulled them in master duel and havent bothered crafting them yet.
I also found having one emergency solemn is a decent catch all negate since there are enough ways to get Ra out with more than 0 atk without using his effect that loosing half my life is not necessarily a shot to the foot of running Ra.
Still figuring out ratios for all the god specific support. having one with the sun god has saved my ass a ton but its a dead draw if you get more than one in hand or draw it without Ra so i fluctuate between 1-2 on a lot of the specific supports for each god.
Omg the protagonist power is too powerful it’s like you could say it’s over 9000 🥁
jesus what a ride....
I'm amazed we haven't had retrains like "The True God Slifer The Sky King" " This Card's name is always treated as Slifer the Sky Dragon You can special summon this card from your hand or graveyard by tributing 3 monsters, can't be targeted or destroyed by card effects, gains 1000 atk for each card in your hand and on the field if your opponent normal or special summons it loses attack equal to this cards current attack also its effects are negated and if it's attack becomes 0, destroy it"
There Konami, that's a free idea lol
Guessing True Name, getting Cowboyed... What are these duels?
The highlight of this highlights are, definitely, Joe pulling off blind call True Name 3 times like a goddamn anime protagonist, and then his first highlight with Numeron-Ra deck he had game if he just summoned Sunya, but na, he summon Apollo and jeopardize it.
As one of the flagship archetypes of the franchise's history, Konami has truly done a good job of making the Egyptian Gods representative of their design philosophy, because the whole thing is one of the most Yugioh things ever made.
One is a casual format staple, with alot of room for creativity in deckbuilding, acting as a perfect maypole for janky gimmicks to orbit around.
The other is a card with history of even competitive relevance behind it, albeit as a footnote of archetypes that ran it as a tech-choice.
Then there's Ra, a barely playable bloingle, whose one relevant piece of support is actively hurt by Ra's presence with how it's most commonly played.
Not only did Ra get center stage in every wave of support the gods would get (all one of them), the support somehow managed to make the deck seem even more aimless and janky than it already was playing without the support. To turn down the asshole a touch, it does actually make perfect sense why they would focus their effort on supporting Ra over the others. Each of the other gods have niche applications and work generally fine in their respective corners of the game, yet Ra failed to see any of that success, so it's just sensible to put ten pairs of training wheels on the weak link to give people even the slightest reason to try and play it. Not only that, but there's not a whole lot to be done to support the Osiris and Obelisk playstyles. Obelisk is just fine, as long as it has a consistent tribute engine to get it out, which it has in the form of decks like Frogs for instance. Osiris on the other hand is a card based on benefitting from draw-power, which Yugioh has been historically shy to just throw to an archetype in fear of enabling FTKs of every flavour.
22:09 man the power creep in master duel lol. The don't even bother with drytron engines anymore
