Remember that time where a dude made a deck during covid that the only thing it did was swap cards in the hand, force handshakes and run cards related to viruses
That's fucking funny
List please?
*activates Yu-Jo friendship*
Come on boys, won’t you shake, a poor sinners hand?
Spits in it:
“YEEEEAH.”
“ARE YOU READY?” *ARE YOU READY*
i played yu-jo in a joke deck and before playing it i set it and then acted like i was surendering offering a handshake and flipping it so when we stopped shaking it would be reviled
Imagine scary movie 2 butler activates it:
"Take my strong hand!"
I wonder if people did anything else, other than spitting, with their hands before the handshake.
I was gonna make this exact joke damnit
Baffled nobody mentioned the 2000 card deck. 100% the funniest moment in yugiohs history
2222-card deck, and yes, that is a well documented thing. Some say it was the impetus needed to force the 60-card max limit for Yugioh.
Probably because it's like the most well known story in the history of the game
the 2222-card deck is so well publicized even people who only know YGO as "the game that Blue-eyes is in" know about the 2222-card deck. No need to include it.
Love CapG's video on that deck.
Wasn't it 600?
Jessie cotton not holding back and letting a literally child face the true horror of what Yu-Gi-Oh actually is ON KONAMI'S OWN TURF is the second most gigachad thing in Yu-Gi-Oh's history, only beaten how by the fact that Yu-Gi-Oh's creator Kazuki Takahashi died saving people from a rip tide. Takahashi is the one and only man worthy of the title "King Of Games".
I mean FTKs in tourney play aren’t actually that common. You see that shit in lower level play more often than not
@@geiseric222 Still, it's cruel to FTK a literal child.
@@Gamemaster13000 oh sure that just makes it funnier. Poor kid probably ran into the one guy playing an FTK that tourney
@@geiseric222 i can assure you there was plenty of danger darkworld at that event
@@Gamemaster13000 Would it have been different if the child was going to be the one to FTK?
The real interesting thing about the Djinn thing to me is that Hoban was originally the one who came up with (or at least popularised) offering to side out floodgates in mirror matches.
Even in Nekroz format, his group were doing things like siding in floodgates and getting people to agree for both players to take out Djinn, Emptiness and Trishula so that they would think it's safe to side out their MSTs and Djinn outs only to be met with turn 1 Nat Beast + Mistake.
Between that and the Djinn incident he's probably singlehandedly the reason for like 4 or 5 items in the 2.0 revisions of the policy documents.
What a scumbag
I like how y’all try and down play it
Fuck Hoban
I find it hard to believe that anyone “gentlemen” out of playing Djinn.
Who in their right mind would take away a card that can win a game based solely on trusting your opponent to do the same.
@@guidofalconi1178 well at that time Patrick was basically the most well known yugioh player of all time so people were pressured/ thought they could trust him.
@@guidofalconi1178 it wasnt based on trust, both removed it faceup from their deck into the side deck was the agreement
@@guidofalconi1178 Yeah, almost like there's a reason literally no one gives a fuck about gentlement's agreements in yugioh anymore after they so heavily abused it during those 1-2 events.
Remember when the Yugioh community smelled so bad, that there had to be a disqualification ruling set for players in a tournament that lacked any basic hygene?
Smash vs Yugioh stink off
Try not to commit chemical weapons
Yugioh literally made there own soap
@RedsHitpostMedia the winner ends up being 40K
Thank Billy Brake for that rule change
Speaking as someone who HAS punched a hole in drywall in a fit of rage, its a LOT easier than you think. You just gotta miss the actual frame of the wall.
Hitting the stud is a bad day. And a bad few weeks while your hand heals as well.
At least one person had died from attempting to headbutt a wall by running at it as fast as they could from across the room only to slam at full speed headfirst into the stud.
As someone outside the States if you try that here you destroy your bones and not even scratch the bricks.
Don’t forgot YCS neo Sacramento where we saw halq synchro volcanics lose in a huge upset to the very old deck pure volcanics
The kaiju u-link was crazy at that event
Man i miss that format,i will never forget about the gate guardian player who went second place
It'll never cease to be funny that Hoban collapsed his reputation and career overnight for a low-stakes tournament he *lost*.
Please tell us more
@@BlackRaven6695 Hoban was at some random tournament when he decided to pull his little Djinn maneuver mentioned in the video. Despite the advantage he gained, he lost that match (and the tourney as a whole iirc) and word got out and everyone started dunking on him. He then proceeded to double down in an ARG article which left his reputation in tatters.
There's a very high floor for how bad your life can get while still being someone that cares about competitive YGO, such a luxury pastime basically locks out anyone below "living the dream" status. And if at any point you threaten to fall out of that status, well you have bigger concerns than being an unpopular player
this felt like a yugioh iceberg video. more like this PLEASE
The biggest controversy at 10:39 was that the local police and newspaper reported them as pokemon cards and they were getting meme'd on here in Australia
The Konami employee that showed up to a YCS I believe with gold Kozmo cards when the deck was stupid expensive immediately tanking the Kozmo market and causing SCR Dark Destroyers to go from $90 to $30 in under 3 hours.
Good, this sounds great
based
hah, you WISH Dark Destroyers were under $100 before the reprints
That man is a saint
One of my favourites, and something my friends and I keep joking about to this day, is Infernity players setting monsters in their backrow so they could be out of cards in hand to trigger all their effects.
4:50 Slowed down the the curious:
MBT when he sees Gage
Joe Biden looking at where he's burying a dog
Me digging a hole
The imposter seeing the vent
Farfa saying, "look at that Joel"
MFW new Traptrick support
MBT viewers when never
Hole in the wall viewers
Made you pause to read this lol
That one guy in that one Junji Ito story
Nothing I put here will be as funny as whatever you're imagining
Thanks dire.
"Me digging a hole" LMAO
With how behind Konami is, I mean you can't use dice to signify counters really, I'm surprised they don't force you to keep track of your life points with an abacus
an abacus would be far too convenient- time to make players keep track of their life totals in Roman numerals
You can only track lp by scratching tally marks on the table
@@dhanyl2725 loser has to buy a new table?
I mean it’s funny cause technically keeping track of life points on anything but a paper with a pen is technically breaking policy
You need to get 8000 individual counters for your life points
I think the March 2023 drama about MBT being revealed to have been having an affair with Gage is best. Although the CIMO, RJ and Dzeef couch discussion about it was a bit silly.
What can I say? 40 Walmart rotisserie chickens is what it takes to change a man's mind.
As someone from March 2023, I can say that it is pretty dramatic
Ah yes the part of yugioh where you just had to bring a jar of peanut butter to scare your opponent shitless truly the time of all time
The whole Griezmann thing was hilarious, the interview with Lithium was painful to watch, Lithium was there being a goat and asking the most stupid questions to have something to talk about and Griezmann just replied "idk don't remember at all" almost every time
I still remeber for the longest time that in Middle School I was super into competitive yugioh and sorta just ended up almost religously following Patrick Hoban's career as I wanted to get better at the game. I wasn't a very good player as I couldn't afford cards to play any top decks (I mostly played pure atlanteans/ Budget Chaos for a long time) and but I remember when the Djinn Scandle/ cheat first happened was my first experience of "Parasocial pain" as my competitive hero did something so "terrible". As I've grown up I realized how minimal the situation was compared to my child response but to this day when I see his time in lists its the only thing I remember.
It's still a pretty scummy thing to do, to be fair.
Good. It's the only thing he should be remembered for.
Neat note: I use Mind Crush in my Dark World Deck for the specific reason that I don't know what's in their hand(which let's me discard a Dark World Monster) ....
How fucked does a meta have to be for Halq to be banned and it only made things worse?
Aa I kept saying halq is not the problem card reee
>someone got arrested for selling coke in Lightning Overlord packs
>Police Alerted
>reason:Someone is buying Lightning Overlord packs
6:00
This was a C&D from Nihon Ad Systems over the use of imagery of the YGO animes being hosted where they could pursue legal action. To answer this at first, they removed all of the card art and anime imagery on the site and operated effectively "in the dark." Then a while later, you could find links to generate low quality imagery of just the card art in place of all the blank arts. After about a month or two of this, DN admins agreed to just shut it down.
Then years later, one of the admins called Xteven spearheaded an effort that would develop the tools needed to create and run Dueling Book. With this iteration of the manual duelsim being devoid of the anime references, they've remained operational since.
This is how I remember it all going down, though I'm probably still fuzzy on a few parts.
With the hindsight of what Gage revealed on stream, the "Cimo cheating his progression pulls" conspiracy theory is even funnier
The story I find most interesting in Yugioh history was the tokyo dome riot. Basically Konami was underestimated the players and released a premium pack, and the capacity was so bad they had to apologize and mail said packs out
You don't have to explain the story.
MBT already did.
No mention of the time rule changes? Suddenly everyone started siding in burn cards and games would constantly end in draws lol
You mean LACK of time rule changes? They're the same rules as they were a few years ago, right?
@@DeviousHands The time rules got changed to those a few years ago.
I want to know more obscure and old Yu-Gi-Oh trivia like this video.
One thing I remember about Yugioh history was someone stole game off Elemental Hero Mariner's effect, which lets you attack directly if you control any backrow. It was from a SJC event feature match.
Wasn't there that one remote YCS with the extremely bad rulings regarding Sky striker and magical meltdown and shaddols. I forgot which one it was but damn that person was an official judge too.
Edit: The instance that happened with Sky striker was when a Judge ruled in favor of Raye effect into Zeke despite it litt being the first line of text on Zeke
There was also the YCS in early 2020 where a judge ruled that if you activated True King Agnimizuid with misc as your only fire, then chained misc effect, you could just pop 2 babies with agnimizuid because it would "try to resolve as much as possible"
Let's not forget the ycs where detaching sangan would trigger its effect
That was the correctly ruling, they mangled the rule book to make it illegal
Jesse beating a child is like Joseph beating Doug every week with his insane UR pulls
5:25 Would ACTUALLY be the greatest meta of all time.
We can make this real with 1 custom TOSS banlist
Two of my favorite changes are time and mandatory effects on field, oh and carley carmine was written out of 5ds due to cult activity.
The second didn't happen, the timelines don't line up. It's just an urban legend. What actually happened is that after the original head of 5ds left they just didn't have a plan and the show collapsed, iirc.
@@najawin8348 Not an urban legend en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li-Mei_Chiang
The YuGiOh WC 2010 DS Game even has Carley Carmine's cult storyline included.
@@TheMightofDab But that's not the part that's an urban legend? Everyone knows that the voice actor stuff happened, the urban legend is that the voice actor stuff _caused_ the character to be written out. Again, the timelines don't work out.
@@najawin8348 You are right Carly wasnt cut because of the va stuff, they could just hire a new one it has happened multiple times.
@@Ms666slayer Not even that! They cut out Carly before the cult thing happened! The cult stuff started happening in Sep 2010, and Carly had become a background character as soon as the Dark Signer arc was over, in the middle of 2009. The timeline does not make one hint of sense, it's a complete urban legend.
dire, the editing in this one is TOP fucking notch, so many silly and funny edits and split-second jokes. fucking slay, queen
Oh, god, that is horrendous, some of those controversies. I didn't know that people were trying to smuggle cocaine through Yugioh packs. Insane.
As far as controversies I remember, I can think of a few:
1. There's obviously the Great Yugioh Near-Apocalypse of 2008, where Konami caught former TCG distributor Upper Deck Entertainment making fake Yugioh cards and having them sold in bundle packs through a third party distributor, and they got into a legendary legal battle over it that caused duelists (myself included) to wonder if it would be the death of Yugioh entirely. This legal tussle is only second in nerd culture to Sega/Archie Comics v. Ken Penders.
2. I dunno if this was true for ever place that had it, but in the shop that I attended the Ancient Prophecy sneak preview event, the event packs given out were so insanely mispackaged for everyone, some having very few cards, some having a boatload of cards shoved into the packs (like double or triple of what it normally holds), and to this day, I don't recall anyone getting a single foil card in them; it was all commons and rares.
3. Personal Yugioh controversy here, but I remember being a passive member of an old, now defunct Yugioh forum, back in the day, for about a year or two, when suddenly some douchebag who had a beef with the administrator of the forum started spamming the sites with obscenities and guro photography for a day, was banned afterward and the mess took a day or two to clean up... and then, in retaliation, the asshole hacked the forum and DELETED IT OFF THE FACE OF THE INTERNET. Seriously, the reason why it became defunct was because the offender in question - not satisfied with disrupting it with gross photography and profanities, hacked the servers and deleted the site entirely, to the point where the administrator couldn't restore it. I don't remember what the forum was called, and I was one of the ones minding their own business there, but my god, was it a (quite literal) shitshow to see.
That guy in the last point clearly has no life whatsoever, much less self-dignity and respect.
Anyone remember the oddity that was the Yugioh Structure Deck poll? There was this poll that Konami released asking people to pick which archetype got a Structure Deck of their own. We know that that ultimately resulted in Ice Barriers getting the win (for all the good it did them), but I most remember it for being the one where Barbaros (as in Beast King Barbaros) was an option. To this day, it is one of the strangest things Konami has done, like what kind of deck would they have made for Barbaros? Yes, it did later on give us King Beast Barbaros, which is cool... but Barbaros is usually a Skill Drain Beatdown strategy, and at the time I believe Skill Drain was still limited, if not outright banned.
You know once upon a time first place at the Duelist Cup (or KC Cup as it was known in Duel LInks) won you entry into Worlds. So yeah Gera farming children got a lot of players who forgot that Konami discontinued Worlds cause of COVID really mad.
Not sure if really controversial, but ah well. There's an xyz retrain of dark magician girl which is a rather strong monster, the problem is the art was done by Kazuki Takahashi and features pentagrams and ankhs, which are normally censored in Western releases, but Takahashi insisted that this art NEVER be changed, so now this card is unplayable in any capacity just cause Konami won't release it uncensored.
Not "unplayable in any capacity" but ocg exclusive
Censorship is so stupid
I'm glad he says 'youtube' at the beginning of the video, so I won't forget what platform I'm watching this on.
@MBTYu_Gi_Oh Close but I don't see a space after MBT, a little sussy
The true old yugitubes has some real gems
6:56 the craziest thing about this story was that VALKYRIE WAS WINNING ANYWAYS (without bots). and when they re-did it, MST.TV's tombox essentially said to his entire fanbase in a video, to vote for inzektor when they re-do it, otherwise he *wont* do a give-away. so even AFTER they 'fixed' the botting issue. tombox STILL BRIBED THE VOTE on the second time round. essentially botting it again but with real accounts.
also inzektors were not re-matched against valkyries in the voting process on take 2. instead valkyries were voted against something else that made the decision even easier and doomed them to lose.
im not big on them myself. but it would have been nice to see what a deck with potential like valkyries or evil-eye could get. eventually, in the last few months of 2022, evil eye has received its support anyways, even though it also lost its vote.
the whole thing is a mess and is still sort of a sore spot to me and many others, because most of everyone's favourite pet-archetypes/decks have been shrugged off to yugitubers scamming until they get what they want using their online presence to control the votes. (obviously not all, or even many yugitubers, just the ones that did it).
I had that happen at regional. I played sky striker I put dice on my multirole to remember how many sky spells could bring back That was one of few times I got mad a judge.
Speaking of Maximum Gold, I just saw a single Maximum Gold box at my local Walmart that someone broke into and stole all the cards from. Wild indeed.
The video just started 0:15 and I had my first giggle, good job
Damn imagine trying to pull dpe out of a case but you get a bunch of coke instead. Poor guy
5:03 it would be a good idea for you to host a tournament with just 2019 cards (excluding salads) to mimmick set rotation to actually test out this almost best format ever and mabye even popularise it for a bit
How about another one: The First Forbidden List. Back in the earlier years of Yu-Gi-Oh!, many players were happy to know that certain cards would no longer appear, such as Yata-Garasu. However, there were actually a number of people furious that the cards they bought or traded for were now only useful outside any legitimate tournament play. I knew several people who claimed this to be the end of Yu-Gi-Oh! with this idea that any card could potentially be banned, and some who quit outright.
It's truly funny to look back on those times and imagine a world where a Forbidden List was never implemented, and cards like Pot of Greed and Snatch Steal would still be legal at 1 in the modern day. There were so many 'staple' cards that it's difficult to say if we'd have any deck variety after a point.
Ultimate Narcotic Utopia Ray
5:03 i think this is a sliiiiiight reach. Fortune Fairies were never gonna be doing anything in any format lmao
It was really only the synchro that saw a tiny bit of play but that’s it
Smh little do you know but its actually tier -13 but noone plays it cause you have to be able to play in the 5th dimension and bend the laws of time and space to your will to understand the complexities of these game breaking fairies,
Aka: skill issue
They're funny to add in Fortune Lady Exodia
At least the Light/Dark ones
Personally I think Cimo is cheating his pulls in History of Yugioh. Not only does he not even show them, but he /somehow/ manages to pull exact copies of tournament winning decklists every week. I'm on to you Cimo.
You mean in "Progression Series" right? They don't usually crack packs in HoY.
Yeah, that is very suspicious. How does he keep getting all these ultra and secret rares? And the exact ones he needs to play full power Nekroz? He must be cheating.
@@Drew-ml1ep They mean history. What they don't mean is what they are saying.
Holy shit it took me way too long to understand this comment. I need to sleep
@@achilles8283 took me a while because there are a strange amount of comments that actually think he's cheating in Prog, a for-fun series with zero stakes on the line where cheating would literally defeat the entire purpose of the series (as well as making it less entertaining, which would harm the only tangible benefit from the series: revenue.) I don't know the guy personally, but I can't imagine him being THAT big of an asshole with an ego THAT fragile.
Was anyone else at the 2010 qualifier like me? I played glad beasts and scrubbed out. Had some insane tacos instead.
Similar to the counters thing, Bushiroad updated their floor rules a few years ago to ban using unofficial tools to track power, shield, and crits…and every event has ignored this since, including worlds. Not sure if the rule is still there but uh…yeahh
I love the Twitter threads somehow more then other content.
I'm surprised the controversy surrounding the entire 1st edition release of Maximum Crisis didn't make it into the video, what with the immense amount of obscene short printings, with entire CASES of the pack not containing a single secret rare if I remember correctly.
It's impossibla that Maximun Crisis to don't have any secrets on a cases, that set was released when 2 secrets per box was already a thing.
The most powerful Yugioh controversy was when BeanSoldierTV cheated in Junior Journey, completely destroying the integrity of the format and MBT's CZcams channel
We still need to bring Red Rose Dragon back to 3 now that Halq is banned.
Ngl, when I saw John tweet that and I was confused. I heard stories, but I thought it was a rumor or something.
But when I found it, it was actually true. I rewatched it like 5-6 times seeing how mad someone could get at Yu-Gi-Oh.
Dire and her Generaider stanning is what I am here for.
9:34 5 stars because it’s at the Tokyo Dome.
A note about the Create a Card Poll not brought up here. There was some...other YugiTubers trying to buy votes for certain decks (COUGH Inzektor COUGH) by offering give aways if they win, causing other decks that need support far more than them, to lose, despite being the favorite going into the final four rounds.
"Oh shit homie!" was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the thumbnail.
5:20 who edited thi- GOD DAMMIT DIRE
yes, couldnt wait for this
the series that introduced me to RCE
Shake my hand, won't you shake a poor sinners hand
Does the AccessCode Talker alt art fit in this category
So, this is one I considered for the thread, but didn't think it was a big enough thing - given it was started by a Twitch streamer/Yugituber and only had about a thousand people interested in it max, I wanna say, not an unreasonable thought.
But - Gehfar! Format!, that weird attempt by a now-former Yugituber to make Yu-Gi-Oh Smogon. It went about as well as you would expect (read: HORRIBLY), for in hindsight just about every reason you'd expect.
Yeah, what happened to him?
@@MysticdestructionAJ They were caught grooming a kid so guess what happened next
@@MysticdestructionAJ She was caught grooming a kid and had a meltdown about a week beforehand where she wished death on a lot of people.
If you can believe it, both of these events were about two weeks after Gehfar! had imploded.
For the full timeline of what happened with Gehfar! Format! and some of the things that happened afterwards - bear in mind that I do not have the insight any of the mod team at the time would have, nor do I have contacts to them. If one of them happens to find this comment chain, maybe they can elaborate on what went down on the backend side of things. Also, my memory is not perfect, so things are a bit hazy on dates for the most part.
- May 2022 - JCD Godot/Jada pitches the idea of a Smogon-like format for Yu-Gi-Oh!, settles on the name "Gehfar!" - the German name of the "Danger!" archetype, to emulate Smogon being the German name of Koffing.
- Also May 2022 - Jada, while on-stream discussing Gehfar!, is raided by MBT. Some interest is shown.
- May to June 2022 - Jada, in this time period, streams the first four or so tournaments of Gehfar! UU. Stream numbers never surpass 100.
- June to September 2022 - Jada is largely radio silent on Gehfar!, leaving most of the actual work being done to her mod team. (During this time, she read every Yu-Gi-Oh! card on EDOPro at the time and streamed her quote-unquote "main content" in a Cross-Anime Tournament.)
- September 2022 - Jada does a late-night stream and says that, unless more people come to her Twitch streams, she is stopping everything Yu-Gi-Oh! related.
- September 27th, 2022 - Jada releases (and, within 24 hours, unlists) a video titled "I can't take this any more" concerning the transphobia she (largely allegedly) suffers from in the Yu-Gi-Oh! community. Gehfar! Format at this point is dead. Most of the Gehfar! Counsel (who had been doing the actual work for the format between June and September) have either left Jada's Discord community or were banned by Jada herself at this point.
- October 2022 - During this month, Jada wipes out all of her content on CZcams and attempts to rebrand. In an attempt to stream and confirm to her dwindling audience what is happening (by her own biased take), Stevie Blunder and Dire come in. Dire straight-out asks Jada to comment on the transphobia she (aain, largely allegedly) suffers from. Jada's response is, verbatim: "Fuck the Yu-Gi-Oh! community, all of you can suck a dick and die, I hope Kazuki Takahashi drowns again, I hope Farfa dies, I hope MBT dies, I hope Dire dies, I hope Di- I hope every single person in the Yu-Gi-Oh! community has a fucking dead family member tomorrow!"
- Also October 2022 - Stevie Blunder learns (and subsequently makes public the fact) that Jada was trying to groom a 15 year old.
- Some time between then and now - Jada rebranded again, with her CZcams channel, as of this writing, being called "Jada Kaiser".
Additional follow-up:
- February 3rd, 2023: Jada uploads a video on Dark Magician. Video does somewhat well and comments are sparse but largely about the video. The odd comment concerning some of the things listed above are made and, subsequently, deleted by Jada.
- February 8th, 2023: Jada uploads an hour long video titled "My response" - in an attempt to explain away and justify the aforementioned list of things above - mainly the attempted grooming and declaring how the entire Yu-Gi-Oh community can suck a dick and die. Stevie Blunder makes a 15-minute video pretty much blasting down every point Jada had within 24 hours.
- About February 23rd, 2023: Jada deletes the "My response" video, as it has become clear that most people don't believe her.
I have no goddamn clue how Jada could possibly think she could ProJared her way out of something there is documented proof of.
How much u want to bet it was Macahdo smuggling dope in those LIOV packs😂
Upper Deck Entertainment running unofficial, even fake at times,Gold Sarc events, stealing top cuts decks after deck checks and stealing money/product was crazyyyy times
it always will be for me the "upper Deck takes over" incident :) in the EU we were not allowed to play US American cards (actually you had to play your local language cards) since US were several sets further than us. We had LON and your Americans had IOC.
So kinda during the qualifications of the german nationals Upperdeck took over and suddenly all cards were avilable. So we started playing with LON cards vs Chaos decks....and a friend of mine did win a qualification at first place with a LON beatdown deck with 3 Gemini Elfs and 3 Mechanical Chaser and 3 Kycoos since the mosnters were stronger than the monsters the chaos player played and the grave was mostly empty :D
Konami makes worse banlist than players that's a fact.
Players can make a 0% profit driven banlist. Konami always tries to use it to make money.
Remember when card destruction came back when dangers came out? Rusty came back wheen torn scales came out? The TOSS format purge? Shadoll purge? Them not hitting tearlamemt, but Spright? (I could keep going)
We need ARG/PPG back.
Okay but the toss format purge was good
The purges are good, the banlist is bad when it doesn't purge stuff. The PPG banlist was bad because it didn't hit enough and the first thing people did under it was Normal Summon Aleister.
I remember being at a Seattle YCS where the cops had to be called after a player threatened another player with a gun that was in his backpack.
One of my friends in my D&D group saw some dude throw hands with Dzeeff.
0:06 So this one's refefence was to spongebob squarepants....
I am still digging to see when Dire's habit of adding reference to cartoon intros started.
2:54 I swear Konami just wants to sell more dice.... that's the only explanation for that
Wow what a “Bizarre” history and a bizarre adventure
This video's editing is really great dire truly is such a funny editor.
not really a "community controversy" but my local OTS store lost there OTS status after the pre-release for Crossed Souls in 2015 because a new cashier didn't know he couldn't just sell all the entry packs to one guy with a shitload of money.
and then some crybaby that happened to be a Konami judge found out he couldn't get crossed souls packs a week early, and went crying to konami about it.
Konami stripped the store of there OTS status, and the yugioh community in the area nearly fell apart completely as a result.
oh, and did I mention it also put the store in massive financial instability? the loss of all the revenue from yugioh players (that were now going to another store nearly 2 hours away) ended up forcing the owner to sell the store to a new owner, who couldn't afford the rent for the current space, and then had to move to a much smaller space down the road.
it took 4 years for them to get there OTS status back, and another 2 years and another venue move before konami would allow them to host regionals again.
and then earlier this year, mr. moneybags that caused this whole mess in the first place made some vague threat about blowing the place up because he got pissy about being kicked out for vending, and the store decided to stop catering to yugioh in its entirety. they no longer even host locals. i think they even threatened to stop selling yugioh completely.
Very funny captions in the hole segment Dire
How about "Sandman" Vargas and the original group of top players getting caught cheating and banned in around 2006?
I remember the comic odyssey scandal.
about the token thing: use dice anyway. put them at all kind of eyes to make it as confusing as possible. because of rulings the dice-token still all count as 1. enjoy chaos.
3:17 Battle Spirits does this; it’s because people cheat by moving the die faces and adding more than are there. It’s weird to see in YGO though.
Extra deck cards used to have to be the same sleeve as your main deck. I was one of the first head judges to go power to the people 💪 if magical hats is the best argument you have for that, I’ll let it be a come as you go basis lol
I'm so glad the cocaine in packs was an Australian candle. Get on the bags? yeah nah get on the boxes mate
So, uh, anyone want to provide us good CZcams viewers with a stream date and timestamp?
EDIT: Alright lads I did it myself. It's from the 12.7.22 stream and starts around 3:33:00, but the top comment says start at 3:31:25. Check it out on the MBTV channel.
Not washing your hands. My favorite FTK
Uhh, I have one to add to the list. Also it was at the same nationals as that dude who punched the holes in the walls.
11:09 Thankfully we can go to the MBTV youtube channel
I really hate when konami sees "oh this older card is gaining some use to make this almost unbeatable card actually unbeatable, ban the old one"
YuJo Friendship and Unity had the most weird effects. What Konami were thinking about handshakes? I mean, why? Whatevs.
So sad that in the create a card project I can see hazy flames in the bracket. Maybe with the duelist pack my old friends
Yu-Jo friendship got a major buff when Covid dropped.
can we do a Twitter thread on best/worst cover cards for YGO sets?
yay carloncho store aka the best OTS store on the southern continent gets a mention!
Should have mentioned that Griezman never actually did or said anything racist. He was just there in the same room while one of his teammates (Dembele) said something racist and harrassed a couple hotel workers.
Feels unfair to leave that out.
0:12 SYNCHRO CRACKER?!
10:45 im dead
Good to know the first ever box I bought was used in a cocaine trafficking stunt because no one wanted to buy it.... Lol
Lullaby of obedience for cyber dragon at worlds?
The funniest thing about the “CIMO CHEATED HIS PULLS” thing is that we have CONFIRMED proof someone cheated in Prog S1, but it wasn’t Cimo 🤣🤣
I will not be normal about MBT saying "Look at that hole!"
Imagine if people banned together and brought a shxt ton of YUJO Friendship decks to a YCS. That would be universe shattering.
Oh don't worry I'm still livid that in the finals of create a card we got a piece of support for an archetype no one actually cares about. Could've been Galaxy eyes. Could've been a simple galaxy/photon searcher. Thank you inzektor
The Konami vote where the players voted to on which deck would get support, only for Ice Barriers to get support lol
