Top 10 Coin Flip Cards with the Most Impactful Effects
Vložit

- At its core, Yu-Gi-Oh, and pretty much all trading card games are games of chance. You and your opponent shuffle your deck, draw your standing hand, and then it’s off to the races until someone wins and someone loses. Or you inevitably run out of time during Game 3 and have to call the match a draw, but for this list we’re mostly concerned with the Gamble of winning or losing. Heads or tails. We’re lining up the top 10 most impactful coin flips because Yu-Gi-Oh is a game of chance made up of smaller games of chance: Will you draw the out? Will 3000 attack be enough to beat over your opponent’s board? Will Time Wizard clear your opponent’s board or your own? Are you feeling lucky?

Hi, so we added an extra negative to gambler of legend by mistake lol.
I’ll have y’all know I actually do fix a lot of mistakes that I catch while setting up the videos for editors. Sometimes i miss things because I don’t actually read cards that I think I know how they work already. And since I love coin flip decks, I made the same mistake as the script writer and thought it was gtg. So the mistake went through 2 humans and no, we don’t use ai for these videos. Nothing in ygo is written down, you literally cannot use ai to write my videos if you tried.
No worries man, it happens (to everyone).
Just a thought for future videos, I think you should focus your videos more on Master duel simply because that's the most relevant way people are playing Yu-Gi-Oh right now.
Just a video idea: the most important cards in master duel or the top 10 best/worst hand traps in MD.
Please make a video to make any monster close enough to be unaffected by everything tribute spells traps I know there's a way you can make a monster achieve those things
The most fun thing of Arcana Force-The World is that Sartorius Japanese VA screams it like DIO from Jojo
its the same voice actor ,also dio is the one screaming like staorious since gx came before anime jojo
ULTIMATE STANDO! *ZA WARUDO!!!!*
He pretty much says the world in the exact same way as well.
OMG YES back in the day in Duel Links, we'd play Dio and he'd yell ZA WARUDO as we got three for-sure heads with anything from Double-Barrel for the removal, Desperado also for the clear (but too many coins per Raigeki), MisJudge (the prime trap of this deck), and Pot of Greed via Chalice.
They nerfed his skill hard but it was fun while it lasted. I remember playing an Anti-Light version with Ally of Justice Quarantine because Konami released that many Light supports that season such that 60% were Light decks.
He only yells it when you summon his Ace, which was fun in PvE. Trust me, I tried making The World viable. Ain't a thing.
I wonder if it's a coincidence that this card basically freezes time for your opponent.
if Fiend Comedian isn't top 5, I'm gonna riot.
I've trolled so many tear players with it in masterduel
Funny I was thinking it could be useful in a tearlament deck but yeah against them that's even better 😂
Fun fact: as a hardcore tryhard of gamble cards, I usually use "a day of peace" BEFORE activate gamble, so it helps the condition to activate (you opponent draw +1) but also reduce a little the payback getting a free safe turn so is easier to survive even in a wrong coin toss
Who knew there was so much math involved in this once simple card game
Math has been an impact on card games since their very invention. Especially in TCGs where players build their own decks out of a large and sometimes still ever growing card pool.
It’s one of, if not, my favorite thing about this hobby! All of the statistics and factors are just so beautiful!
"simple"
[Insert video of J. Jonah Jameson laughing here]
*Linear Equation Cannon has entered the chat*
A couple dozen people probably already said it, but there's an error in the Gambler of Legend segment. If you get three tails with Gambler of Legend you discard your whole hand. That's awful most of the time, but if you're running a bunch of Dangers, Fables, Dark Worlds, goddamn Tears, or other cards that you want in the graveyard it's not that bad.
Each and every video of his is riddled with reading mistakes. The guy does absolutley nothing but read a script, written by someone else, in probably one take. I enjoy the videos but this is an annoying thing to content with, if you're actually watching these videos instead of using them as background noise or to fall asleep to.
He normally reads the correct effect. The editor tends to put up the wrong picture.
@@m3rcher he is literally doing it so people will comment, he has played gambler lf legend om stream im sure he know the effect front and back
@@uuh4yj43 I'm not familiar with his content outside of this channel, so I'd rather imply lazyness instead of intent. But I've noticed this "strategy" to boost interaction for shorts in general.
"There are bad ways to win and good wins to lose. What's interesting is that it's not always clear which is which. A flipped coin doesn't always land on heads or tails. Sometimes it may never land at all"
- I got a "grim" feeling hearing this quote again lol
The last lines immediately reminded me of a quote from Soul Reaver 2.
"But suppose you throw a coin enough times. Suppose one day... it lands on its edge."
Basically a more elaborate way of saying to take a third option rather than getting stuck picking between two bad ones.
Sand Gambler reminds me of D’arby the Gambler, from piece of media that was influential to Takahashi
Rrrrrrrrrraise
Am I hallucinating, or did he logs read the gambler of legends card wrong? There is no you "destroy all cards your Monsters" on gambler of legend.
Yup, he also said The World stats is 2100 ATK and DEF not 3100. He really needs to re-read his scripts or stop with saying things wrong on purpose. It was annoying with the names and now it's just objectively telling people wrong info. Wait no he said the gambler thing right. Honestly though the fact I believed this comment say's a lot lol. Oh wait no I was wrong he does say that afterwards when speaking of the %
Duel Logs top 10s are so confusing now and often wrong smh.
He is both DuelLogs and hirumaredx
He saw that gambler of legend was a retrain of sand gambler with the same effect for 3 heads and possibly assumed the 3 tails effect was also the same without checking.
Most of his scripts are actually written by other people, his patreon subs iirc
@@akiradkcn huh, why would his patreon subs write the scripts for him? They pay him and ALSO write his scripts? That doesn't make any sense to me
2100 star line flub
Using Dark Sanctuary, you can make funny Tie Game.
1. Activate Destiny Board to place Spirit Message L during opponent's End Phase.
2. Opponent chain Maxx C
3. On resolution, choose to Special Summon the message.
4. Destiny Board complete, at the same time your opponent draw the fifth piece of Exodia.
The duellogs is in hes duke delvin joey gambling arc
gambler of legend's 3 tails effect discards your hand, rather than destroying all your monsters like sand gambler
Niche option to trigger DW or Tear cards
I remember when I would troll on Dueling Book in the custom format by using a deck composed completely of different versions of a card with the effect 'flip a coin and call it, if you call it right you win the duel, otherwise you lose the duel'.
Whenever anyone complained, I just told them that, unlike most other custom decks, this deck wasn't overpowered in any way and was completely fair.
I remember doing an Arcana Force lock with Darklords and Level eaters. Man it was fun getting to round 20 or so with your opponent never playing
9:53 To be fair in DK worked weirdly, like Yugi didn't have Dark Sage in his deck. The effect of Time Wizard just "aged" cards into there different versions, or those are destroyed if there is so "aged version". So baby dragon just becomes thousand dragon, Joey didn't have it in his extra deck, Dark Magician becomes Dark Sage Yugi didn't have it in his deck. Just like Mai didn't have "old Harpie Ladies" in her deck, they just became old.
The second coin toss thing with sand gambler assumes that you would only use it if you got 3 tails. You dont make a second coin toss and pick your favorite of the two, you get the new toss, even if its worse.
I understand, but where's the 23.44% chance came from it's still bother me
23:06 ZA WARUDO! TOKI WO TOMARE!
I miss my GOAT Arcana deck.
We love an Elite Four Grimsley quote
Idea for a Coin based Spell Counter card;
_The Mad Magician’s Perilous Piggy Bank!_
Continuous Trap
_If a Coin Toss is performed, you can activate this card that is facedown on your field, or in your hand or GY. Place 1 Spell Counter on this card for every coin that is tossed. If this card would be targeted, negated and/or removed from the field by an opponent’s card effect, you can remove 1 Spell Counter from this card instead. Once per turn, you can Remove any number of Spell Counters from this card, then apply 1 of the following effects. ⚪️Gain LP Equal to the number of removed Spell counters X1000. ⚪️Increase and/or Decrease the ATK and/or DEF of a monster on the field by equal to the number of removed Spell Counters X500. ⚪️Add to your hand, Send to your GY or shuffle into your deck 1 monster you from your hand, deck, field or GY, who’s level equals the number of removed spell counters._
Call me a noob, but doesn't most, if not all, of those locations disallow counters?
@@henke37
No. They spell counter removal is a cost to proc the effects, like how one would pay LP for card effects, and the effect that’s applied after used the amount of removed counters as a reference for itself to work off of.
@@henke37
And when the card activates itself from those locations, it immediately end up being placed face-up on the field.
18:50 Idea for a monster card retrain for this:
_The Fiend Comedians!_ (DARK)
Level 1
Fiend/Flip/Tuner/Effect
_FLIP: Activate 1 Spell/Trap Card from your hand, deck, GY or banishment that requires a coin toss or die roll._
_If this card is summoned, you can activate 1 “Fiend Comedian” from your hand, deck or GY. This card can attack all of your opponents monsters once each per battle phase. While this card is face-up on the field, your Spell/Trap cards and effects that require a coin toss or Die Roll card be activated from your hand or GY, or during the turn they were set, and also, Monster Effects that require a Coin Toss or Die Roll become Quick-Effects if they weren’t before. Each time a card(s) is sent to the GY or Banished, you can increase or decrease this card’s level by 1 for each card sent or banished. Gains ATK/DEF equal to the result of any die roll X500. If a coin is tossed, you can call it, and if you call it correctly, this card’s ATK/DEF is doubled._
ATK/0 DEF/0
My dream boss effect for coin flips,
Blanket every on field activation with head judging-alike effect but doesn't take control and destroys. And then once per turn it can also treat one coin flip result into desirable option.
It would be awesome and meta defining
8:50 tbh given that the tcg irl didint start until after the duelist kingdom arc was over and a little bit before the battle city arc started, they really didint have any rules to go by so i kinda like the way they did the spins on stuff
“Joey Wheeler” Jonouichi Katsuya
“Rex Raptor” Ryuzaki
“Mai Valentine” Mai Fujaku
Sure would be nice if we just stuck to original names from the manga and Japanese version.
@23:12 & @24:12 ummm...
Is it 2100 ATK & DEF or 3100 ATK & DEF?? 😅
(love your vids btw ❤)
22:23 It's funny you mention that Stardust can't activate against coins flip effects due to uncertainability, but just so you know, thats not the case in Master Duel. I had a Stardust negate my Time Wizard when i activated it's effect during this last 2010 Edison event.
1:48
"You have brought your chance of sucess up to a much friendlier 75%". This sententce is wrong in the context of Time Wizard.
Imagine we want to call Tails because Tails never fails.
The chance of having Tails in the first coin toss is 50/50 and therefore you can either get Tails or Heads with the same chance. The moment you throw a second coin, you would think that chances are now 75% due only one of four results not having Tails in it. However, this only applies if the second coin toss needs the first coin toss as a base or vise versa, which does NOT apply for Time Wizard.
Time Wiizard only wants the result of ONE single coin toss and the result of the other coin toss does not matter at all. Furthermore, the first coin toss does not effect the chances of the second coin toss at all, so both coin tosses are independant to each other.
So, what now? Second Coin Toss might allow you throw again, however the chance of having Tails or Heads is till 50/50.
I hope it was understable. ^^
Edit 1:
2:35
The same thing also does not apply for Sand Gambler. Due the first three coin tosses have no effect on the second round therefore being independantly from each other, the chances are remaining the same.
Second Coin Toss can only change the odds of a coin toss if the result of the first round has any effect on the second one, which does not apply for Time Wizard and Sand Gambler.
Edit 2:
21:46
Mathematically, there are only 4 outcomes and only 2 do matter. The orders of the coins does not matter therefore canceling outcoumes, which are similar such as H T T and T T H being identically according to the card's effect. Still, it is 50/50, which you mentioned.
I've probably said this before on another video, but I think the ways to make good coin flip cards is to 1. Give both results upsides, 2. Give them other effects (but only one or two) aside from the coin toss that still make them useable, and 3. Make a more generic Light Barrier.
23:16 Idea for an Arcana Force support card:
_Arcana Force Coin_
Quick-play Spell
_If you control a face-up “Arcana Force” monster, You can shuffle this card from your hand or GY into your deck, and if you do, you can add 1 card that mentions “Arcana Force” or “Coin” in it’s name or text to your hand from your deck or GY, except “Arcana Force Coin”. The first time you activate this effect, the following effects are applied for the rest of the duel (You can only apply the following effects of “Arcana Force Coin” once per duel.)_
_⚪️If a coin is tossed, you can Call It, and if you Call It correctly, draw 1 card._
_⚪️”Arcana Force” monsters require 1 less tribute to normal summon/set, and also, During your Main Phase, you can Normal Summon/Set 1 "Arcana Force" monster in addition to your Normal Summon/Set._
_⚪️Once per turn, During either player’s turn, you can tribute 1 Face-up “Arcana Force” monster you control: Normal or Special Summon 1 “Arcana Force” monster from your hand, deck or GY with a different name._
Never let this man cook again
@@yatakarasu98
What’s wrong? I thought this archetype in particular could use the help.
Arcana Force XXI - Za Warudo
Oh cool I use a majority coin flip deck. Thanks for doing a video on the coin flip mechanic.
You might have already made a video with this ideas. I'd love to see a video of the best or worst monsters with 0000/0000 or zero attack. Love your videos btw
Idea to retrain Gamble into something that can better emphasize "trying to get out from a worst case scenario".
All In
Normal Spell.
This card's activation and effect cannot be negated or prevented. You can only activate this card when you have 3 or fewer cards in your hand and on your field while your opponent has at least 10 cards in their hand/on their field; draw until you have 8 cards in your hand, and if you do, at the end of this turn you lose the duel.
The first line is meant to bypass flood gates of lingering effects, like Droll and Lock Bird. The rest gives you a big draw but, as the name says, you're going all in that the cards you'll draw will let you win the duel on that turn.
Joey's Japanese name just keeps getting pushed farther and farther from my mind that I'm afraid I'll forget it, even though he wasn't "Joey wheeler" when I read the original manga. Even in the official translation.
He does get called "Joey" a couple of times in the official translation, during the first RPG against Bakura since it's his character name and a couple of people use it as an insult which is probably trying to convey honorifics that don't exist in English.
@@thewanderingmistnull2451 Yeah, now I remember a few times he's called "Joey" even when they keep the name Jonouchi in the official translation. I think Bandit Keith said it all the time. The "Jo" from Jonouchi sounds like "Joe", therefore "Joey". However the manga translation came after the anime got dubbed. Unsure if it's still an aspect of the Japanese anime sub or manga though.
If you take time wizards 50% and second coin toss's 33%, you have a 66 and 1/3 chance of winning
You using Steiner math on us?
Imagine if Dark Sage was a fusion of DM and Time Wizard, that’d make it nuts with Timaes
Next we'll get the top 10 coin tosses with the least impact :D
There should really be another archetype that relies on coin tosses and die rolls besides the old Archfiends and Arcana Force. It should also be broken as all get out, since if you’re gonna gamble, make sure the results are worth playing an inconsistent deck. Make it a Pendulum Deck too, for double the effects.
Or make an archetype around Dark Master - Zorc. He may be from the manga, but I think he’s more than ready for archetypal support.
6:56 Idea for a Fusion Retrain for Dark Sage that uses Time Wizard and a Dark Magician monster as fusion materials:
_Dark Magician - The Eradicator Sage_ (DARK)
Level 9
Spellcaster/Fusion/Effect
“Dark Magician” + 1 “Time Wizard” monster
_You can also Special Summon this card by tributing 1 Face-Up “Dark Sage” you control. If this card is fusion summoned, or summoned by its own effect: Add 1 card to your hand from your GY or Banishment. Each time your opponent activates a card or effect, inflict 1000 Damage to them after that activated effect resolves. If this face-up card you control would be banished or sent to the GY: Return it to your extra deck instead, and if you do, you can special summon 1 monster that mentions “Dark Magician” in it’s name or text from your hand, deck or GY, ignoring it’s summoning conditions._

Blowback Dragon was my favorite card during schoolyard Yu-Gi-Oh days.
Getting it back in Duel Links around the same time that Aliens, my first archetype, felt like I was playing with my best friend again, who made me swear to never use Blowback against him every again cause of all the times I would top deck it and completely turn the game around.
@TheDuelLogs Hey man, love your yugioh videos! Just wondering, are you the same guy who does the Top 10 "WoW things to fall asleep to" videos? You sound exactly the same! haha
its the same person , he comments in how the exeptation in wow community is so high and low in ygo's in his streams sometimes
😂 Blowback dragon was one of my main machine cards I would almost always put in my machine decks 😂
I just got flashbacks when I heard the third card of the list. Instantly realized I had that card but the censored cartoony version xD
On my ancient deck (toolbox warrior) I used to run gamble just for fun, my friends used to beat me but for some reason the one with the most OP deck got such a bad luck almost always lose to my deck, good times, lunchtime competitve times
9:30 I mean. It is more a case of "right... so this is why Yugi had that card to begin with". And joey completely forgetting why Yugi even had that card to begin with, and never even once thinking it could backfire on him, is all on him
I remember when Blowback Dragon first came out, everyone was saying how much it sucked (for the time) because the effect was a "might happen" despite not having a downside if it didn't. They'd say, "Might as well play Summon Skull."
Bossmanjack's deck is looking stacked
Regarding the second coin toss percentage; it still remains 50% because the 2 coin tosses are not related. The result of the first one, does NOT affect the result of the second. You were misled by gambler's fallacy
Za Warudo was always gonna be number 1.
With all this coin flipping, you should do a video about once per flip effects.
Gamba decks are probably the most fun decks to play in master duel
Blowback Dragon on the list is deserved
Time wizard is easily one of my favorite cards, I used it in a 6 man free for all to go +25 in card advantage 😂
My homebrew reboot of Yugioh has a card called second chance. It has the effect of second coin toss but also works on dice and doesn't have a once per turn limit.
So it's completely unbalanced because you can just keep reusing it until you get the result you want?
@@thewanderingmistnull2451 No. My version specifically has a difference between a dice roll/ coin toss and an ADDITIONAL roll/toss, as well as a REROLL/TOSS. The card let's you redo each dice and coin once. The non once per turn limit is about letting you use it on other effects in the same turn.
When I saw the title I knew we gonna talk about the tarot cards , and it did not disappoint, as a reader and a duelist I know cards and coins have a mind of Thier own 😂

If you take my 2 Second Coin Toss cards, that gives me a 75% chance, and that is on top of my Time Wizard’s 50% chance of destroying your board; you see the numbers don’t lie, these spell-cards spell disaster for you-at Sacrifice!

If we're talking pre-errata versions of cards, then something involving Makyura the Destructor and Exchange of The Spirit would have to be one of the best. Get Makyura in the graveyard, then just start drawing cards until draw into Exchange of The Spirit, then just activate it once you have 15 cards in your graveyard, and you've gotten rid of your opponent's entire deck before their first draw phase.

There are a couple errors here... One of the ones I can tell is that Head Judging actually does have a downside... In that it can also negate your cards and give them to your opponent.
While yes, you CAN cause yourself to flip a coin, Head Judging isn't mandatory and you can just choose not to activate its effect on your turn.

I feel like Gon from Hunter X Hunter with all this math talk
Joey was to win that duel because time wizard said when you called it right. Which means yugi didn't control time wizard meaning dark magician was to be destroyed.
And that was definitely the only weird play in the duelist kingdom arc. Yep.
In duelist kingdom, the monsters affected by time wizard usually stayed on the field after they aged. Barrel dragon rusted and harpie lady sisters turned into old women, but both stayed on the field with only a stat decrease. I think red eyes black dragon was the only monster to be destroyed by time wizard's positive effect in duelist kingdom.
Is it worth mentioning that the yugi joey duel was filler,
They didn’t duel in duelist kingdom in the manga
That example you used is on second coin toss is a gambler fallacy.
The -1 in card advantage is the real penalty
I think you can only redo 1 coin toss for sand gambler
