Its funny cause one of the things that "drew" me to Yu-gi-oh is the art style. I used to draw the characters on the cards all day. I remember, at one point, we were really poor and couldnt afford Yu-Gi-Oh cards but me and my little brother loved playing so I took the time to cut out and draw 2 decks for me and my brother to use. I was a really big Yu-Gi-Oh fan and knew most the card effects by heart so I wrote out all the text as well. Then, I built a homemade battle arena out of beds and boxes for us and it was time to d-d d-d d-duel!

Swagkage's Yugioh meta documentary is what got me into Yugioh a few months ago. After that, I jumped into Duel Links and have been playing a lot of Magician of Chaos, which fueled me to start building physical decks. I've currently got a few structure decks (my favorite so far being a somewhat modified Shaddoll Showdown structure deck) and a hand-made Magician of Chaos budget deck that's based off of a deck-list i found online.

I think the reason the og anime is so ingrained in people's memory is the method through which we all saw it. Saturday morning cartoons and weekday reruns. Ask any educator, the best way to embed information into someone's head is repetition. We watched the same episodes of the old show constantly. Its why duelist Kingdom is so ingrained in our memories because we watched it the first time. Then we watched It again while waiting for battle city episodes. Then we watched it and battle city again while waiting for new episodes of Waking the Dragons. The Kaibacorp Grand Prix and Pharoah's memory arc don't stick as well because we didn't get that repetition. Nowadays, we binge through an entire season of anime in a day, and forget about it until the next season comes to crunchyroll or netflix. It doesn't stick. Its not the writing being better or worse. Its not nostalgia goggles. Its the lack of repetition.

This is definitely what happened to me getting into yugioh in the past couple months, something I've always wanted to get into and now I have money to buy cards and stuff.

I’ve bought like 4 decks in the past 2 weeks. Getting old friends into playing it again. Old school Yu Gi Oh is such a fun game.

You’re not lying! I’ve been out of the Yu-Gi-Oh loop for 12+ years now but I’ve just recently been getting back into it.

What I recommend for returning players is begin again with decks you played in back in the day and slowly work through the years, it becomes a lot less confusing

To join the conversation on this channel, while I like the main channel, I really appreciate these kinds of discussions. Matches and deck profiles are nice, but the broader shifts in the game are tougher to understand as a casual observer. Plus, you treat every subject respectfully! Just wanted to echo the positive vibes here and say that we really appreciate what you do!

For me, I played from the very start, through 2009 when I left home for college. It was around that time when synchro strategies were all the rage, with TeleDAD having just left its mark a few months prior. In school, I haven’t really thought about the game at all until I was at Walmart one day and saw the Marik structure deck, and was completely floored by the decklist! Lava Golem? Mirror Force? Allure of Darkness? Gravekeepers? Magical Stone Excavation? I immediately bought three copies of it. But even then, I never had anyone to play with in school, so I never did much with it. It was in senior year when I started dabbling in online dueling through Dueling Network. I think XYZ monsters were just coming out around this time. But ultimately I’d stop playing that too, and I haven’t thought about the game much since, completely bypassing pendulums and links. Fast forward to 2021, and I stumble across one of my old trade binders, and got incredibly nostalgic about all the cards I was finding. So I then set out on a quest to dig through my attic and my basement to find all my old cards, and started going through them. I couldn’t believe what I had forgotten I had. Including a really strong Extra deck, a fully-functioning Gravekeepers deck, and an Ultimate Rare 1st edition Solemn Warning! It’s also around this time that I started researching Goat format, a way to seriously scratch that yugioh itch that’s being bubbling up while also keeping the rules and games both simple and familiar. And here I am now, considering investing in several Goat format cards!

It’s time to finish dubbing the entire yugioh duel monsters series using the original Japanese dialogue with the original soundtrack everything uncensored

Goat format has always been popular, but in lockdown a bunch of us wanted to play and I didn't feel like learning 2021 rules. We played old, pre xyz, because that's what we enjoyed.

One thing tgat got me and my brother excited again in buying cards after 4 years was the legendary duelist sets. Just the anime nostalgia and being able to upgrade our old favorite decks. It's really fun.

As someone who didn't really grow up with Yugioh and only got into the card game a few months ago, all i can say is "I'm really enjoying the Magician of Chaos deck i built." Playing dark magician related cards feels a lot like playing black-blue in MTG (which, coming from someone who gravitates towards Ashiok in Magic, feels really fun). I'm also enjoying the Shaddoll Structure deck that i bought and have been adding on to, it feels like a black deck due to all the graveyard shenanigans. I'll probably focus on upgrading my mechanized madness structure deck next once i have the money for it (mostly since my brother seems to like using it when we play Yugioh).

These hot takes/discussion videos are great please keep making them !

I've been collecting classic Yu-Gi-Oh cards for years now. The new ones just don't appeal to me.

I think most of the nostalgia and interest of older Yugioh cards/monsters/Pokémon is due to the fact my generation that saw Pokémon and Yugioh take off in our early childhood is starting to come back with us now having children of our own and showing them our old favorite games and shows bringing interest back to both old and young generations.

Yeah I can definitely relate to this, I recently built both a Yugi and a Kaiba deck using the oldest versions of those cards I could get my hands on via troll and toad that most closely aligns to their decks in episode 1/duelist kingdom. In short if the card is seen even once in their decks during season one I put it in their along with the Detonate and Attack the Moon respectively.

I played when the first Kaiba and yugi starter decks came out to right after the battle city arc of the show. I put all my cards away in a box and have dug them out and built an old school cube. It's been a blast to play with those old cards with my son and some buddies. Love me some hitotsu me giant and celtic guardian.

I wish this trend didn't exist for kinda selfish reasons. I never had the money to buy the classic stuff when it was on shelves with very few exceptions. Now I have the money to some extent, but some cards / classic products have 3-5x in price. 😂

You can also see it with what archetypes and themes they release as of late. Dawn of Majesty finally gives us a decent Stardust engine with Majestic Dragon and such. A set previewed recently called Synchro Storm focusing on other Synchro users, the War Rock archetype would be amazing is the old days of the game.

I have been collecting strictly old school Yugioh sets, including series 1 and 2 OCG + Bandai/Toei era, since it's US release in 2002 until the 5Ds era, took a break in 2011 around the time XZs came out, and got back into collecting in late 2015 and i have noticed that almost every year there was at least 1 product alluding or marketed towards fans of the old school era such as the legendary collections, legendary decks, 2019/2020 tins, reloaded Yugi & Kaiba decks, and the many reprints of BEWD and DM but just like with every other popular TCG prices of old school Yugioh cards and sealed products skyrocketed last year around the beginning of the pandemic. I'm glad more people are getting back into Yugioh especially if it's for nostalgia purposes or being able to own cards/products now as adults that we couldn't have when we were younger when the TCG 1st released.

I just got back into it recently after a 15 year hiatus. After watching your videos I decided to drag my brother with me on this journey of cardboard crack lol. It’s been great, it’s brought us together like when we were kids!

It's makes sense why some ppl would prefer old school YGO. It was such a big pop culture thing back in the day.

The current game has gotten so complicated that some ppl prefer going back to the simpler basic gameplay.

Started rewatching the anime. Saw GX season 4 for the first time. And it really all happened because a lot of the other activities I was into just closed down. So to entertain myself another way.

LOB came out when I was only 4 years old, going on 5, and I didn't really start playing until the XYZ era (I think XYZ Symphony was my very first Starter Deck as far as I can remember), and I really wish I had started playing much sooner. So seeing older products rise in popularity is something that I'm looking forward to.

I got back into modern Yugioh a few years ago, but I played for only about a year or so. I hadn't played since 2002 and had to learn everything (Synchro, XYZ, Pendulum, Links, etc) all over again, and it was pretty fun. But my heart was still in the Duelist Kingdom era, and playing modern yugioh just made me miss the OG stuff more. So i love to see this personally, id love to make a duelist kingdom deck and slug it out with normal monsters and simple magic and traps again

Great video bro, i agree with you 100%. Im definitely one collector who started in the early 2002's

I've always been a sucker for Ritual monsters. The Classic

No lie the main channel kicked my nostalgia hard, now a few years ago I learned the game changed extremely and I can't keep up with how it is but like I like watching your videos with the challenges it's still pretty cool!

I actually came back to Yu-Gi-Oh now that I am older due to nostalgia since I got some cards when I was younger. I am really sad I was so bad with my old cards because none of them survived but, now that I am 20 I have started to collect cards and I even got two of my friends to play when they have no experience although it is funny that I am teaching them since I am still learning but yeah I do think nostalgia has been a big role in making people collect Yu-Gi-Oh cards these days.

As a collector my self I do enjoy collecting both new and old cards and I find it awesome that people are getting into it. My main issue is getting products at a decent price. Shadows of infinity and Cyberdark impact is just absurdly priced. It's rough and new lotto cards are nice like Armed Dragon Thunder lv10 as a starlight. It's pretty rad.

Now if only the other LV monsters could get that kinda treatment. At least do Horus and Allure Queen; those ones at least made it into the anime!

This content is great. It's not click baity or over hyped. Like it's great. Reminds me a lot of the guy from Tolerian or MTG. A lore video of your favorite cards please

I'm one of the people getting back into to collecting classic cards from the anime, and for me it's about the nostalgia and building the collection I always wanted as a kid that I now have to resources to do so. The increased prices are a big bummer, but I'm not as picky with some about the rarity or set, and the great thing (that fans like yourself can get annoyed by as you mentioned) is Konami has reprinted cards so many times to make them readily available. Glad you're welcoming fans back into the hobby!

I had an OG Red Eyes B Dragon as a kid. Was my favourite monster then and still is. Unfortunately, that poor card went through the riggers of childhood dueling without sleeves. I would freak out to have another one today, and am honestly tearing up at the thought of it. Nostalgia is a powerful thing.

I was born 2002 but I actually grew up watching the original series with my brother and I completely forgot about it until last year and rewatched it all I had remembered from my childhood was a few monsters the pyramid in the intro and there being two yugi’s but I remember vividly watching 5d’s so very nostalgic for these 2 eras of Yu-Gi-Oh! But I digress I’m just excited to see my childhood again in a way

I'm looking forward to the bandai millennium puzzle box that's coming out in August.

Seeing a resurgence of love for retro Yu-Gi-Oh! warms my heart. To me, nothing exists after GX. My collection is strictly classic cards. What I think would be awesome is if we got a remastered, uncensored version of the anime dub (sorta like what happened with DBZ Kai).

Don't forget Konami making retrains of those old cards, like the recently announced Ocg retrains of Harpies pet dragon vjump card, giltia the d. Knight, mystical elf and Kaiser glider in the legendary monsters pack.

The GX era was where it was at. The power creep wasn't absurd yet. Decks still had plenty of room for personality instead of just exclusively being what the current meta was.

No cap bro GX is my favorite I stopped watching after 5ds!!! Quick question what website can I catch yugioh gx season 4 and 5ds season 5??

I'm trying to get Yu-Gi-Oh classic cards because I'm watching the anime on Netflix. I used to watch the show and have a few cards that I bought at Walmart when I was a child and I used to collect them but I never played them with my friends or in school because my school forbid bringing yugioh cards.... I didn't even learned how to play properly. 18 years later I'm looking foward to play classic cards and even newer cards like "Link" cards and stuff.

Would love to see a Yugi and Kaiba original starter deck duel on the main channel!

Nearly 99% of any single person I ever met in the wild say "I know yugioh, I bet I can beat you" but they absolutely know zero... its upsetting that so many people like something they know nothing about

Do you mean like people who watched the anime back in the day but haven't kept up with the new ones or played attention to the card game meta for years?

pulled my binder out from more than 10 years ago from when i stopped from duel monsters and gx and im glad old yugioh is coming back!

I actually just recently put my goat deck and 2002 beat decks back together!

They should do old school style at tournaments. That will be fun

i cant wait for the obelisk and slifer deck but more slifer and the cyberdark deck thats coming out so hyped for them two deck

We have a nordic deck too, so we're going to do some God Vrs God Games LOL

All the more reason that my DDM reboot might be successful.

hey where did you buy that Pot of Green at your back...??? i love that hahaha

Heck yea bro didn’t even know about your channel but I appreciate you

YGO is 20 next year. I hope they do some sort of classic anniversary reissue for all the cards from that first run. I miss it being a simple 'get your monster out, boost with field and equips, to your opponent up with spells and traps'. No real structure beyond what cards you liked. My best memories are from that initial 2002/2003 run, and id love a set of those classic cards just to play with. I even bought legendary decks during lockdown, just cause I wanted that nostalgia hit.

I fully agree, im busy getting rid of my modern cards and im busy collecting exodia pieces, god cards, old E hero fusions and all the number monsters

What I want most out of yugioh is more format support. My favorite time of Yugioh was the beginning of the synchro era. The decks weren't as insanely fast as they are now (where you see first turns taking 10 or so minutes and people spilling out 3/4ths of their deck and extra deck in a single turn to make unbeatable boards), but it also wasn't super slow/bricky/topdecky like early yugioh. I feel it was such a nice middle ground and I really want to be able to play in that sort of format again, but outside of playing with some weird ass ruleset me and my 1 friend made up every now and then, I don't even play yugioh at all anymore and it's sad. I miss this game. I miss the memories I made in 2008 to 2011. I miss the decks and the pacing from that era. But it's now lost to time. Even now in 2021 we really only have Standard, GOAT, and Duel Links (the latter two barely being supported at all). So my only option to play the decks I like in the format I like is just playing my one friend, with the same decks, over and over again (and we both feel like it would be a waste to spend a bunch of money on these cards just to play with each other every now and again).

I actually prefer these videos to the ones on the main channel so I'm glad you've branched out!

Duuuude! If Konami did reboot Duelist Kingdom, they could reboot it with the characters actually playing the rules and using all the support cards that exist now to really make the duels more accurate, interesting and exciting! Like Yugi's Spellcasters versus Mako's souped up water deck. Joey's warriors against Rex's Dinos. Ah man, it'd be so good!

I love the classic re-emergence. I've kept all my cards since I started playing in 2004. It's crazy to see the stuff I have sitting in binders going up in price so much.
