As someone who plays both games, that's actually what made me suspicious. MTG is full of cards with unclear or vague text, and you need to check the oracle text, sometimes the ruling, etc... In YGO though? 99.9% of playable cards are printed with modern PSCT, which is so precise with every detail specified that, if you know how to read it, you could deduce almost every single ruling entirely from the card text. (Unless you're playing fire king, but the baboon rule is the exception in yugioh rules, there's very few things like it)

It feels like you're talking out of your ass, using logic about planeswalkers in general, forgetting it's only 3 mana and can immediately jump up to 6 loyalty. That itself protects it for a turn or two at least in the early game of even mid to high power groups. In fact, again, mid to high power groups, which tend to rely on combo creatures rather than stompy-ish Timmy fatties, would find that harder to remove via attacking. Also you say he's worse than planeswalkers that provide utility, and don't realise he's one of the most powerful types of card advantage (via removing their own permanents from the board after they've wasted a card and mana on said permanent - it's better than simply drawing or making your opponent discard since your also making them discard mana too, effectively).

@@andrewsparkes6275 Not really. with 3 opponents walkers are usually easy to kill if they are a real threat, so oko doesn't tend to last long enough to put too much pressure on a commander game. Commander being a singleton format, part of the threat from oko, being so cheap that losing one copy just meant a second was coming in a few turns to start all over, Isn't an issue to commander. One of the uses for Oko, creating a food and turning it into a vanilla 3/3 every other turn is decent when you're playing against one person with 20 life, but against 40 life spread across 3 players the value of that drops fast. The "how powerful is each 1 mana spent on it getting from it?" math has a lot less bearing on (non cEDH) commander than it does on 60 card formats for a lot of reasons too. It's also a real losing proposition to dedicate enough interaction to meaningfully protect a planeswalker that isn't part of a win con combo (jace, tezzeret, etc) for your deck against 3 players that want it gone. In commander games Oko almost can become just a more narrow Generous GIft, or a more expensive Pongify, and both slowed to sorcery - decent removal spells, but not the powerhouse he was in 60 card by a long shot.

@andrewsparkes6275

5 ай бұрын

@@ReyosBlackwood Did you read my comment? I already talked about that. But to repeat, the higher the power game, the better Oko becomes, because: 1) In higher power metas, creatures tend towards having most of their mana cost represented in their textbox (with good effects), rather than their stats. Which means it takes (a) actually needing to swing more times/with more creatures, and (b) having the stupidity to do that, when it puts your combo pieces into jeopardy. So Oko will tend to hang around on the board for longer when it comes to attack-removal in higher power metas. 2) In higher power metas, while removal is more rampant, so is your own protection. And (if you've built your deck right), you're probably running slightly more protection interaction than removal interaction. Which means removal spells become harder to resolve in higher power metas too. Which means Oko sticks around longer on the board when it comes to spell-removal too. Is Oko worse in EDH than 1v1? Yes. I even literally said so myself in my initial comment. Is Oko still one of the most powerful planeswalkers in the EDH format, in terms of how much bang you get for each of your mana bucks? Also yes. Does he get better the higher the power of your meta? Also yes. All of those things can be true at once.

Two things stuck out to me to rule out #4 as the imposter: 1. He's wearing clothing that represents a superior tcg. All yugioh players sponsor superior tcgs with their clothing. And 2.

I thought it was 3, because saying something like "i make a new commander deck every day" is a level of dedication i would never be able to accomplish. I struggle to find 9-12 different cards i want to play in a 60 card formats

As a viewer, from the onset when they talked about how long they've played magic or how much they're into it and then one dude said "I just play magic for fun" it was obvious it was him. All the others said stuff that implies that they know the game and the meta in depth, which an impostor wouldn't want to imply because it would back them into a corner, but saying "just for fun" is an easy way to get away with not knowing some of the harder answers without being outed.

Number 5's big brain play, act suspicious so you immediately get voted for and don't have to play but still succeed

i saw number four from the get-go, his body language screamed that he was uncomfortable from the very first question. Him adding the "right?" at the end of his responds what sent him out. While playing enough commander showed me he was the least engaged member in the whole cast. Sat back, arms down, and just looking around.

The impostor really threw everyone off with his "reading the card" answer. I would have guessed number 3 was the Yugi player...

Jamin getting buzzed with absolutely 0 hesitation was highly entertaining.

This was so good. If you could do some longer form version of this, this would be epic

I thought for sure it was number 1 for a couple of reasons. "I've actually never played Extended" seemed like a weird answer to me because Extended had ended before he began playing so you'd think someone who knew about Extended would've answered that way instead. Secondly his answer about planeswalkers was elaborate while also saying nothing at all. Anyone could give that answer regarding a card type in any game with formats and it lacks enough identifying details that it would probably be correct.

The proper answer should be "it depends"

As a casual MTG and a Yu-Gi-Oh player, I would've asked, "True or False, You can only play spells on your turn?" because before I started Magic I would've answered "True" because of how Yu-Gi-Oh works (other than Quick-Play spells)

Just say "I activate Mystic Mine" and whoever coughs blood is the imposter, gg.

So, I kind of avoided putting this here for a while, but Thorolf has quickly become my favorite KZreadr. Everything about him reminds me of my brother, who I unfortunately lost some years ago, to a frankly scary degree. His personality, build, and even the way he looks is almost 1 to 1 for my brother and it helps me to remember him.

Yeiy Felipa I'm glad she is colaborating with you guys, she is a super cool player.

honestly i wouldn't mind seeing more of this video format... maybe 4 modern players and 1 casual commander player? other stuff like that could be fun too

In yugioh, sometimes reading the card explains nothing. In modern formats this has been mitigated somewhat but with instances of formats and specific rullings some times you have to know the specific rulling konami gave to the card or know the errata.

I get a 5 against Oko because I probably won since my opponent presented a banned card

Question to make spotting the "fake" easy-mode: "Can you give a common nickname for any of Magic's color-combinations without repeating a previous answer?" The "no repeats" means they can't just say an answer someone else says to hide. "Real" players can easily know most of Rakdos/RUG/Bant/etc. and have no trouble naming one not yet answered, but a "fake" may not know any.

Flips a coin to go first. Values deckslist by which player goes first. Brings cards back from Exile. Thinks lands are a field spell. Also, plays auras and equipments from the back row. Asking a sus player if they ever designed an affinity deck and what was the favorite card in that deck would be a decisive question.

It became obvious to me when they asked who he'd target with signed in blood. The yugioh player would instantly think "pot of greed".

Ruling out a player being into MTG via a Pokemon shirt but not noting the JJK shirt. I thought 2 was the imposter for sure because no magic player knows what anime is.

If anyone was in a conversation and got asked "What are your opinions on side decks" almost everyone would've continued saying Side Deck for the conversation, because that's just how our brains adapt to instinctively fit in

If someone asked me what a side deck was, I would totally say it's cards you can switch out with your main deck between games. Then 2 hours later, I'd smack my forehead and say 'Sideboard!'

To be honest, I just call it sidedeck aswell. Can't unlearn once you learn it incorrectly.

2:36 as one of many who went from Yugioh as a kid -> MTG when I grew older I still think of it as the "Side Deck" sometimes if I'm being honest

I like the idea of this. I think the judges made some tactical mistakes but it is understandable. On the side of the guests, I think the whole thing would have been best without number 5. I eliminated her mentally right off the bat because I felt she was being so obvious and that the tells weren't the kind that a yugioh player would make. Rather, they were from a magic player who knew what contest they were in and weren't respecting it, trying to throw the judges off and get picked. Think of what this would have looked like if every magic player said their favorite deck archetype was blue eyes white dragon. That wouldn't be fun at all as it wouldn't be testing the yugioh player's ability to blend in. Though it would be kind of fun to do a reverse version where 3 judges who are magic players try to pick out the yugioh player from 4 magic players when the yugioh player is just being themselves and the magic players are faking being yugioh players. As the judges have limited yugioh knowledge, they'd have to use the little knowledge they have of yugioh but the fakes might know those bits too. Or they could try to figure it out based on finding tells where the mtg players slip up, defaulting on things that they are used to that are different from yugioh. This prevents some basic probing questions such as ones relating to how many lands are in their favorite deck and what color or colors it is. Questions like these are ones that are pretty hard for a yugioh player to answer well while even a casual magic player is generally going to fall within a certain range. If they don't know exactly, it is still enough to get an idea. It also lets you scout out who's ostensibly an EDH/Commander player.

#4 is the only one near the end who didn't laugh at the judge joke. That was where my suspicion hit because he wouldn't get the joke of why it's funny.

"When did you last play extended" -That's a hard one, but I haven't played in it in a loooong time... I think it was shortly after Scars of Mirrodin dropped?

It was Bant landfall with grazing gladeharts and primeval titans, and I know it was scars because I was playing the U/W Venser planeswalker card that can flicker your stuff. Had a few combat tricks to be able to flicker my permanents, so I could use that one "enters" tapped zendikar land that gives protection from a colour, can't remember the name... Kabira crossroads? That might be the one that gains life, who knows?

Please do more of these! Can't wait to guess wrong again lol

Omg that was so fun! I would love an episode like this with 5 mtg players but only one does not play a certain format (for example commander)

Number 4: "I just play magic for fun". Me: "IT'S HIM!"

As soon as I heard the premise of the video I thought to myself how I would judge solely based on looks. Number for looked like he had money. The clean new looking jacket that looked like it was bought off a targetted facebook ad. As well as the clean haircut. I would have guessed him out the gate, lmao. You gotta be making that moolah to play yu gi oh.

reading the card explains the card is a common phrase in the yu-gi-oh community so i knew instantly it was him

number 4 s answer to planeswalkers totally gave him away imo. like thats the most non-generic sounding generic answer I have ever heard. like "I like their lore, their unique mechanics, and how they play etc. it looks more like he knows what he is talking about because of the editing shouing like cuts from trailers when he mentiones lore. but in reality, he even said at some point "I quite enjoy the planeswalker" well which one? until the planeswalker question I didnt have a clue, except maybe suspecting 5, but after that question I was sure it was 4

Twas quite an interesting watch kudos to all involved! Gives me an idea for you/someone to try: Round 1: The mtg/yugioh player "teaches" the opposite tcg player the lore/mecahnics of the respective game. Rpund 2: A series of questions gets asked by the respective coaches to each opposing coaches trainee. Then flip it and see who are the stronger coaches/learners of a game. Edit: you could also maybe have 1 of the trainees try to blend in with the others... like one of them have actually played it but their goal is to blend in with the other trainees.

Cardmarket is cranking out the banger videos, sheeshgoddamn

I don’t play Magic, but as soon as 4 said “Target” I knew it was him

I used to follow coverage of major Extended events, but I’ve never actually played Extended. I imagine a large percentage of newer players don’t even know what Extended was.

It's always nice to be able to knock myself out instead of sitting through someone's stupidly long turn either taking extra turns or stupidly long combo

"I hope you werent rooting for jamin" How could i when Toffel wears THAT shirt.

when they introduced themselves, I thought it's 4 because it's obviously much easier to fake beinga casual than someone very experienced

That was soooo much fun, pls more of it

Damn, Thoralf is looking beefy as hell.

I had positive matchups against Oko decks when he was legal, so I loved seeing him since it'd usually mean they were wasting their turns. When he got banned, it bummed me out, especially because the decks that filled the void tended to go positive against mine!!

please bring more of this content, it was really entertaining !

I thought for sure it was 3. It takes a real sicko to wish Planeswalkers were stronger 😂

You gotta get josh and jesse on this but they are the ones that have to guess the ygo player

It seems like only contestant 1 plays Magic. Contestants 2, 3, and 5 play Commander.

"reading the card explains the card" is universal at this point. it is in no way just a magic thing

I've never heard it in Yu-Gi-Oh community. I've heard "Yu-Gi-Oh players never read cards" more than that.

@@mslabo102s2 we literaly have a sticker for it in our whatsapp group. with the powerpuff girls on it. because once again reading the card explained the card edit - we usually post it after they fail to read a card... so we are not beating the not reading cards allegations

I'd have to disagree. It's certainly prevalent in the MTG community, but other communities that use it like Flesh & Blood or Pokemon, have a decent amount of crossover... it's likely that an experienced player in one game has at least tried the others. Yu-Gi-Oh, by comparison, is pretty insulated. If people play that game, it's usually the ONLY TCG/CCG they play. So, they wouldn't be exposed to the societal axiom of "Reading The Card Explains The Card" in most cases. Of course, it's still possible they could have, but generally speaking... it's not very likely.

I though the video was going to be 4 vs 1 but the 1 player has Yugio cards and life total so the mtg players basically need to go infinite asap

the sign in blood question gave it away

I would ask "What do you think about Maxx C or Imperial Order". All of them probably are going to say they don't know these cards, BUT I'm certain that the Yugioh player would demonstrate some kind of reaction

"Favourite colour pair?" Look for the fella that doesn't use the guild name lmao

Really fun vid, their side deck answer reall threw me for a loop lol Also where's Filipa from? Her accent is so reminiscent of a brazillian accent, but she's european so i have to imagine she's portuguese?

Yes exactly! She is Portuguese and she's one of the Casters for the Legacy European Tour :)

These questions were so SAFE and EASY! Get me on there!!!! Great video 👍

theres a fool proof question for this game that nobody asked "how do you brainstorm correctly"

Now I want to know more about the imposter‘s experiences with MtG, whether they’ve played in the past or not at all, got some info from siblings or made all answers up on the spot… would be really interesting.

Magic will forever have a place in my heart. But daaaamn is flesh and blood a good cardgame.

Gonna be honest, my initial reaction was Number 3 being the Yu-Gi-Oh player. As someone that's been a judge for both games at varying points... the Yu-Gi-Oh people tend to have way worse hygiene in comparison to MTG players, generally speaking, anyway.

I figured that the person with the Bulbasaur was the imposter, with the link of cartoons between Pokemon and Yugioh, but got thrown off by the “reading the card explains the card". Must be watching MTG youtube!

@@Zisage Yeah well with Team APS. As much as I like them, a lot of the viewers are yugiboomers and players of old formats. It's unlikely but still possible ofc.

The smell gives it away.
