It's funny in retrospect hearing about how the game became like a post-apocalyptic wasteland around this time, because this is when I first started getting into the game and attended my first locals. My locals were always underpopulated and full of casual players, and I had always assumed that was just because there was no competitive scene in my area. Turns out most competitive players just abandoned the game a couple months before I started lol.

I remember the old Dino-rabbit combo being using Gold Sarc, banish Rabbit, then normal Tour Guide into Leviar to bring back the Rabbit you just banished. Banish Rabbit for 2 dinos, then Lagia/Dolka (typically Lagia). Then set backrow and pass. That was a fairly strong opening and if the opponent doesn't get rid of the leviar, you have another use of Rabbit next turn. Going second means you can probably attack with the vanilla dinos too!

Yo that’s such a sick combo

25:06 Ok so this play is actually illegal, but honestly this ruling is easy to forget so I don't blame anyone for not knowing/forgetting it. Normally, SEGOC (simultaneous effects go on chain) follows this specific order when determining what trigger effects get activated first: Turn player mandatory, non-turn player mandatory, turn player optional, and non-turn player optional. If you have multiple effects that would activate that follow under the same category, the person whose effects they are gets to chose the order in which they activate. HOWEVER, this was not always the case. Prior to somewhere in 2017, if you had multiple mandatory effects that had to activate in a new chain due to just meeting their triggers, the order they would activate in was actually first dictated by whether one of those cards met its trigger first. THEN if any met them at the same time the turn player could choose. Since MBT tributed Tengu for Caius, Tengu's trigger was met BEFORE Caius'. This means that in the following chain, Tengu's effect should have been chain link 1 and Caius' should have been chain link 2, meaning Cimo could have negated Caius' effect with Dolkka.

@GamingManMike

2 жыл бұрын

That's what I thought as well. This sequencing could also mess up when... you can effects. For example, Witch of the Black Forest + Red Rising Dragon, summoning back Red Resonator. Witch would be chain link 1, and Red Rising would be chain link 2, summoning back Red Resonator, then Witch searches. Since Witch search is the last thing to happen, the player misses timing of Red Resonator, therefore unable to gain life points. Gotta love Yugioh sometimes :P

25:10 in modern rules chain blocking works like that but b4 mr4 chains work slightly differently. For multiple mandatory effects they must go in the order in which they reach their triggers on field (which is stupid and thankfully changed when links came along) In this situation tengu was tributed so It would be cl1 ciaus activates on field and would be cl2 dolkka cl3 and I assume mbt scooping cl4

@@jadegrace1312 howso? His OG post was correct, and no one says priority meaning phase priority unless they are talking about a ruling. Effect priority is what was the concern here. I don't see how him saying effect priority is in the garbage where it belongs contributes to bad players being bad. Also, the way you say this is biased and uninformed. Yugioh players understand effect priority, they don't understand the resolution of effects/summons. For example, in mtg a card is a spell until it is a permanent, but that isn't the way it works in yugioh. In mtg it is common sense that countering a planeswalker will prevent effect priority, but because in yugioh it doesn't work like that, yugioh has something called the "summon response window" on the resolution of the summon. This makes effect priority after inherent summons confusing.

@@AngelNearDestruction No, see, this is exactly what I am talking about with yugioh players not understanding priority. The original commenter was definitely incorrect, as they stated that priority doesn't exist anymore, when it does. Priority is crucial to how card games are played as it determines who can do what at what time. There's no such thing as "phase priority" or whatever, there is just priority. Also, I understand all about how cards resolve in magic and in yugioh, as I have played both for many years. Also I have no clue why you mentioned the summon response window.

Before I continue wachting this. 12:59 if you look at this hand and think it's bad then you propably don't have much experience with Dino Rabbit. Because the main reason Gold Srac was used in here is because of Leviair. Banish Rabbit with Gold Sarc, use Tourguide to special summon Leviair.

It is regarded as a worse format than DaD to the point where A LOT of people quit the game because the game lost versatility, and when only 3 decks are dominating a format with one of them ripping cards from your hand first turn and another being able to pop 2 cards first turn and then potentially your entire board after that was infuriating especially with how much effort you went through to set-up a board. Dragons Collide SD was created a way for budget players to be able to play the game more competitively and BOY did it work! Lots of AMAZING reprints in Charge of the Light Brigade, Lyla, Ryko, RedMET. Cards Like Eclipse Wyvern for consistent searching, DaD even?! Light Pulsar, Chaos Sorc? At a time where BLS was unbanned and was only like a 50-60$ card at the time? Extra deck was pretty cheap too in Void Ogre, Black Rose (to a lesser degree), Stardust, Colossal Fighter, and some few cheap rank fours to run. Zenmaines was probably your biggest money card (tour guide was not a needed addition to this deck and effect veiler being a 10$ card at the time due to its reprint was also nice) That structure deck was a gold mine for budget players.

Oh man this is so nostalgic that they've gotten to this era!

Going to agree with some of the other commenters here: these games looked really fun to me, but maybe it's a quite specific taste to like this kind of gameplay. Now, the OTHER meta decks from this era, which no doubt we'll see next week..... those, I can absolutely see why people hated them.....

I joined during this era and I kinda loved the format. Maybe because everything was new to me but I remember this format fondly

I jumped in around this time and loved it. Towards the end of this time, I settled on Hieratic Chaos Control

This was the first YCS I attended. I was broke and had just started playing again after stopping early synchro era and got absolutely rolled playing a *SUPER* budget anti-meta chaos deck. Dino-rabbit was SCARY

cimo forgetting how to play in game 2 after being shocked for not being able to cheat with Guaiba

While I am happy (-ish) to see the craziness of 2012 unfold again (aka Inzektor, Wind Up, Dino Rabbit supremacy is upon us), I am slightly sad we never saw in 2011 the Formula Monarch variant of Frognarch. Anyone else remember that deck? I remember my region having it at every local and regional I was at. -Ryu

Didnt know that so many players quit, but funnily enough, me and a lot of friends quit back then, I did in January 2012. Trust me, this format sucked ass. Took me 5 years to come back to Yugioh

So what was so bad about it? I'm genuinely curious, I know nothing about that format..

@@peepeevs So if I told you Dino-Rabbit is actually least cancer deck of the format. Between hand loops/ Shock locks in Wind-Ups, and the if you play any cards that don't stop the normal summon you lose in Inzektors. But this is still my favorite time period to play the game.

@@peepeevs The mirrors were miserable, the options were not fun and the player base was losing interest fast. This was my last time playing competitive yugioh. It faded for me very quickly when shockmaster came out. That ended it.

Going to a local that had a ton of competitive players when u r a teenager sucked ass during this time. Didn't really come back to Yu-gi-Oh until the Arc-V era.

Oh man we're slowly approaching D-Rulers

Tengu is mandatory when it leaves field so its always chain link one just like heiratic seal in dragon link currently

Dino rabbit is one of the decks of all time

I remember ycs Brighton. I was a 12 year old kid with a masked beast ritual deck. Played in a side event. Never been so traumatized in Yu-Gi-Oh at that point or since. Dino rabbit after Dino rabbit after Dino rabbit 😭

Alternative title to Yu-Gi-Oh guys have their soul slowly sucked out of them

I don't know if it was mentioned but another reason people hated this deck (as usual) was the price tag Each Tour Guide and Rabbit was around $100 each The deck in full was probably $1200+

5:30 imo it was the Dino rabbit deck that completely shaped yu-gi-oh! to a "I put X omni/negates on the field and protect everything with traps from my hand, your turn" and that pretty much ended my relationship with yu-gi-oh! since it was no longer good to only go +1 or in certain scenarios go +2 now it was just flood the board - initially starting with only 1 card in your hand. You go into a million special summons and searches, basically every card does the same thing, just the artwork in the cards change. Also, I can't remember clearly but I think that started the age of the hand traps somehow. So any rabbit, tourguide, debris dragon, guaiba was just bad and your turn was shut down by one single hand trap. Lots of 1 for 1 trades but also the big finishers like BLS or a powerful synchro monster, now it's 3-5 insanely broken synchro/xyz/link cards with 5-6 solemn judgments attached? WTF

To be fair the meta evolved past it but it does feel like it has been played while slowly adapting set by set since 2004

tbh, i'm more familiar with 2012 chain rules than modern ones ^^

Oh cool I always wanted PTSD from this format
