Mystic Mine. A toxic, stupid card that can be countered with 20+ cards where no card costs more than $2.

Fun story about Mystic Mine: Myself and my little sister used to play yugioh casually and one day decided to try out a locals. She was playing Crystal Beasts a few years before the structure deck came out (her boss monster was Scrap Dragon), so wasn't expecting to win, but wanted to see what it was like to play against someone who wasn't her brother. Her first game was against Mine Burn. While shuffling her opponent asked if she had spell/trap removal, she said no, so he gave her 3 Twin Twisters to add into her deck. Safe to say, Mine was her least favourite card from then on.

The problem I had with Mystic Mine was the not being able to declare an attack. It could have locked down Card Effects, Spell and Trap Effects and Special Summoning and it would have been perfectly fine. Very, very slow. Still would have been the best control card in the entire game, but it would have let players counter it by effectively playing old-school Yugioh again. Gemini Elf Sisters and La Djiin would have actually seen use again outside materials for some sort of summon.

@@randomprotag9329TBH, if Mine only had its Skill Drain effect, I think that would inherently encourage its controller to control at least one monster. Under Skill Drain, your opponent can still summon monsters and apply pressure; you can’t just sit there and do nothing. So, the Mine player would either need to lock out attacks with another unsearchable floodgate or present pressure of their own, most likely in the form of a big monster your opponent can’t just run over. But now that the Mine player controls a monster, their opponent can just match monster counts and turn off mine. Really, it was the combination of Skill Drain plus Wall of Revealing Light on Mystic Mine that allowed you to just sit on it with no monsters until you could win.

Also, using that with other translational and b roll clips keeps them around 5 seconds for the best result. This is what pro editors do in movies and documentaries. This is not hate.

Videos like this about certain cards and formats are more than justified and seeing one put together in such a watchable and enjoyable way is pure bliss.

As a last point of mine coming from an exclusive MtG standpoint, I know our games are VERY different. That said... Mystic Mine remind me of Red Prison or Lantern Control, both are widely hated or loved depending on who you ask. There is nothing quite like looking your opponent in the eye and telling them they cannot play the game, especially when they have blown hundreds or thousands of dollars to play a big meta list, only to lose to a deck that costs a fraction of the price that is equipped to just... prevent their pricey cards from doing anything. Its truly a heroic thing to do, keeps people honest, as at least in Magic, the way you beat these decks is usually through understanding and using cheap sideboard options that arent always super common to the metagame. Anyways, just a magic players outside perspective on a card that seems like something we have had in magic for literal decades (see ensaring bridge, blood moon, and counterbalance+sensei's divining top).

Mystic Mine is fair because its not fair. Yugioh stopped being fair a decade ago. Appolusa is not fair. Being able to negate four cards in one turn isn't fair but combo is how konami wants us to play. Konami wants is to just negate everything our opponent does. Mystic Mine and its actually fair little brother Skill Drain is just combo but less bs to get there.

I think partially that these sorts of control decks need to exist to change thr meta. Taking away mainboard space from decks that otherwise dont play s/t destruction. Making them less all in on their own gameplan. I understand Mine was a toxic card, but im coping a little since most decks get away with phoenix in ed and maybe 3 s/t removal in the side.

@@dantehensley6799 What otk meta? Is there any go second otk strategy in this format or what, well I hate to break it to you but uh, there is none. Also I don't know what year you were referring to as "years ago"(The DM/GX era I guess, idfk). There are strategies in the modern era, tech cards choices, learning game states, learning different lines of your combo, not just mindlessly normal summon ash add poplar etc. You can just pick up a meta deck, look up some guides and play in tournaments yes but you wouldn't do well. You need to put time and effort into learning the deck, even if it's the MONKE deck like stun, you still need to know what the opponent's decks is doing so you can find choke points. Also, deck building is a key thing throughout the entire history of yugioh and it still is to this day. Having the skill to deck build better than the other players is substantial. But I can see why the older formats is more well received than the current one, they are not fully into building archetype decks, you can just play different generic cards and put em together. Generally I don't think the game sucks ass(also do you want to talk about old decks that are as broken as todays' deck? Like magical scientist ftk, exodia ftk, airblade etc. yugioh was broken back in the day and it still is today), admittedly it is much more fast pace than the before but that's just how games evolve without a rotation (I also play magic, pokmon tcg and other tcgs. So without a rotation you can't really balance the game without printing more powerful cards/straight up murder every deck and also, we don't have mana bases so it's more harder to balancing)

Mystic mine just showed a problem with the game. Theres no deck building variaty. This just shows people dont bother to build their decks arounds stuff that can happen. Its not my fault youre not prepared and run 0 spell or trap removal on the deck. This is a problem konami doesnt care about.

It goes unresolved, and then they will release another easily exploitative, game breaking card for money and repeat the cycle. We never get anywhere and yugitubers recycle the same tired, boring discussions. Demanding bans is not enough when they don't fix the underlying issue with the game itself.

My favorite mystic mine moment was going undefeated at my locals with mystic mine exodia and resolving exodia in the final match

Amazing video. Now I kinda want to see your take on Halq.

This was very funny and exciting to watch, and I don't know anything about Yu-Gi-Oh. Great storytelling.

I used to work at a card shop for a few years, and I lost count of how many copies of Mystic Mine I sold to our obscene amount of Yugioh player regulars. What a wild ride its history is.

Funny how my fun deck completely would not care about mystic mine. Familiar possessed They dont use monster effects, and have a non target pop with the trap card

Do they win through burn damage, deck out or Exodia? Because if your deck's wincon is to win through monster attacks it would care about mine very much. A common misconception about mine is that it's the effect stopper that makes it broken, but mine would be a pretty meh card if it wouldn't stop attacks too. THAT is the broken part about mine.

@@nicolaistuhlmuller8718 the way o build is is good for stalling And i can pop mystic mine as many times as needed

I love Mystic Mine, because for years my favorite cards to use were Raging Flame Sprite and Solar Flare Dragon, and Mine let me use them properly :)
