Paul in game 3 why were you not putting your defense monster into attack, and chipping away at his life points?

This video brought an old memory of mine (the laughing parts to be precise), when my friend and I used to duel. I remember that he had a singe copy of mirror force, wich was the most threatning trap in his deck. Since we didn't use sleeves at the time, IF your card was damaged, it was very easy to memorize. TLDR, oh boy did I remember that mirror force. Every time he'd set it, we'd cry in laughter about it. Him trying to convice me every damn time that it's not what I think it is was just peak comedy. Tho true fun had begun when I started naming 40% of his set cards (monsters/backrow), before he could even play them. I miss those times man.

Awesome duel and video! Couple things on the ruling for Morphing Jar 2. Alec was supposed to mill cards until he milled 2 monsters (He only milled a spell and 1 monster) and then special summon either of them if level 4 or lower. Also since flip effects activate before a monster dies. Paul should've have shuffled in his Morphing Jar and milled as well, Morphing Jar doesn't actually get destroyed.

@christianlay-geng

Жыл бұрын

To explain why Jar is destroyed, it's because the game state recognizes that it is "marked to go to the GY", thus it cannot be bounced to the hand or deck. Monsters destroyed by battle or non-permanent Spells/Traps that go to GY can be destroyed or banished but never bounced, and this overrides card effects. Else you would never be able to deck out (which is why Fiber Jar was banned in the first place). This is along the same veins of why you can't revive a Nomi monster when a card is "ignoring summoning conditions", because the game state doesn't allow you to summon nomi monster unless properly summoned first, which supersedes card effects.

I love this set. LOB was my 1st booster pack that was given to me, and i still remember pulling Tri-Horned Dragon Secret Rare, my 1st ever Secret Rare. Opened my 1st LOB 25th Anniversary edition, and pulled the same Tri-Horned Dragon i did back in 2005. Nothing but happiness

Loved this so much. Opened a case myself, got reigeki, blue eyes and jinzo in the packs. Was super stoked to get such iconic cards

27:18 when u play "old school" cards and you see link monsters for the first time

I lost it when Alec said " you and these Nin Ken Dogs!" 😂

I loved that "PIERCING" where he cuts him off while hes explaining how long the old effects used to read.

I legit love duels that go past turn 2, and where my turn isn't our turn. Keep it up boys!

This has been one of my favorites so far! Please keep doing classic duel videos in the future! 🤘

Love the videos guys haven’t played since the start of GX. Just built a dark world deck and fell in love with the game again. Thanks fellas!

I won my first match in a tournament with a hero emerges into blue eyes again a DAD deck back in the day. So that hit me in the nostalgia with that tri-horn dragon play. Solid stuff Gents 💯

Love it! Me and some friends did this the other night and it was amazing. Most fun we’ve had with Yugioh in a long time.

You guys got some pretty good pulls based on what I've been seeing. Got a display of these coming in tomorrow, hoping for something like that. A tri-horned dragon would be cool, I loved that guy in capsule monster coliseum but never had the physical card

I bought one of these, and what's cool is that it gives you enough to make one of those old school cobbled together decks made from the best of what you have, just like the old days. I have the deck I made sitting next to my desk, and it's actually got some decent cards to work with, like Upstart Goblin, Smashing Ground, Kelbek, and Invader Of Darkness. It even gave me one of my old favorites as a kid, Red Archery Girl. I'm very happy with this box. Nice little thing for the old school fans.

You guys are finally back with nothing else but a BANGER! Very cool duel - oldschool with nostalgia screaming out of it! Keep up the work!

So glad you're still here!! You guys rekindled my love for the game

This is the only kind of Yugioh matches I can follow 🤣

I got that same shadow serpent dragon Secret Rare. Love these reprints. I don’t care if they’re valuable, I love the nostalgia of these original packs.

To be honest, the reprint cards don't feel the same. The modern printing makes it less nostalgic. There was a bit of a crudeness to the og cards that people who opened them will recognize immediately. It's a different feeling so at least they got to experience the old cards that long time fans miss so very much. Still, it does hurt the wallet :(

Yugi-yoooo! Serpent Night Dragon! That card should of have some support. I forget the card that made you use high ATK tribute monsters for hand tributes? So, ran Serpent and others in my Duel Generation app deck. It was silly fun.

Yaaaaas! Your new set staging is fantastic! Great corner setup with those framed cards! *chef's kiss*

I never got into Yugioh aside from watching the series with Yugi Moto, second with Jaden Yugi (thought end to series LAME) and the Yugioh who duels on a motor bike (with that Stardust dragon he gets from his rival/ friend…).

This was such a fun nostalgia trip. I love how Paul dies every time he has to adjust life points with the Castle of Dark Illusions.

Its funny when I was opening mine I couldn't help but think I hope team aps does a duel using these. I got a secret rare chaos emperor dragon from mine. So this set 10/10 for me.

What a great classic Duel from probably the only great version of getting the first six packs as a bundled product that exists in modern day! Seriouusly loved hearing Paul be all like "I don't like Tear Ishizu" then also was like "Here's Zolga and Kelbek!" Lmao Hyporcite~ Nah you would have been a fool not to use the original non-broken forms as they do have decent stats for Lv 4s. Also every time Castle of Dark Illusions flipped over to mess up Paul's life points was easy to relate to as somebody who has OCD and plays Yugioh and used to watch the life points get into those weird fractions. Kazuki my guy you were a bit nuts when you printed those exactly as they were in the manga.

Love the throwback card duels.

I swear Paul's "hmmmmmm"s get a smile on my face every time! :D

I like how u magnefied the cards, wish other duel videos did that! I skip off them if I can't c wut there playing

Legit enjoyed watching this keep up the good work.

I bought a display of this exclusively for Relinquished in Spell Ruler, and amazingly I pulled it! I also got a secret rare Serpent Night Dragon which was a nice bonus. Unfortunately, I didn't pull Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon or Thousand-Eyes Restrict.

Great duels. It was fun to watch

Ah the good old days of Yugioh where a turn didn't mean you can get up from the table cook an entire meal and come back only to find your opponent is still taking their turn

Honestly my fave of those sets was Spell Ruler, but only because I pulled my first (and thus far only, at least as far as YGO is concerned) secret rare from one. funnily enough, it was Serpent Night Dragon.

I remember getting the original legendary collection for Christmas as a kid, the one that was the binder.

Its been a while for a video!! Glad ur back

Tri Horned Dragon is a pretty cool duel spirit to have following you around

I feel like you could get a few of these and draft with them. Each set of 6 packs can make the draft pack you pass around, each person gets to pick a card and pass the stack to the next person and it continues.

Yeah Alec pulling his 3rd secret of Tri-Horn was great to see! the 2001 vs 2022 packs rare hunters now this?

Do you have an equipment video? Looking to get your mic and was wondering what do you use to also capture the audio

Hey, i have an idea its called infinity reborn, where you guys playing your custom build deck but.... • You can only bring fusion monster to your extra deck, but you can only bring 1 poly and 1 super poly in your deck, shuffle it to your deck after activation and draw 1 card • You must bring 3 monster reborn and 3 call of the haunted, as long as call of the haunted remain face up on the field, you can make monster reborn a continuous spell that can use its effect as a quick effect once per turn that cannot be negated, but banish it when it leaves the field, and if you control these two cards, another two of your spell/trap zone cannot be used, also if you activated monster reborn as a continuous spell, negate the effect of call of the haunted. • You can bring 2 HFD

Esses vídeos são relíquias, gosto muito.

so, not that it matters too much and i know simulators could possibly get rulings wrong, but in edopro, using dimensionhole on a face down monster banished it face down and when it would return to the field, it can't return to the same zone it was banished from and it would also return face down defense.

This would have been awesome as a house tournament

First thing I noticed before anything else, you guys got different boxes compared to the European release - the ones from the release over here are a bit larger/wider and double as storage boxes.
