This is not back and fourth, it’s just « i play spider on table for 5min, can you break my board after ? » it’s not even interesting to look at that matchup
Wow actually a really entertaining match. Diversity makes for a more enjoyable viewing experience. Can’t stand constantly watching fiendsmith snake eye mirror matches in every top cut
Here we go players!!!... the best two in-archetype cards for their respective decks are "Ritual beast Tamer Shifter", "Spiritual Beast Protos", and "Tenpai Dragon Purulia", "Tenpai Dragon Dogwood" Good game duelist!!!
I mean, Not for nothing, dogwood was used for its literal intended purpose & when dogwood & purulia are stacked like that, RB could have 100% chosen to not play through it the way they did. It was unnecessary
Thank good that the Ritual Beast Player lost. I feel Like in every single Feature Match His plays were messed Up. He literally Made more illegal plays than legal plays. After the third Feature it Felt intentional for me. He Put His cards in wrong Locations (gy, banish), summoned multiple names multiple Times, He Changed zones, Changes summon Materials, summons Monsters He is Not allowed to summon and so in and so on constantly. The tenpai Player Played the cleanest on Stream He deserves the win in my opinion. And also raigeki is a based Card xD
Too be fair, Tenpai requires little brainpower. Ritual Beast requires a lot, and I mean a lot, of thinking. Ritual beast requires a lot of functioning braincells to pilot, so it's not weird that even the most talented players would make mistakes with it. It's not like Tenpai, Snake Eyes, etc. That require no to little thinking.
@MistBestWaifu I complain about them complaining too. The cycle never ends, lol. One of my favorite things to talk about this, is the card design. No matter what it does, they complain. Is it great? "It's too good and needs to be balanced." Is it balanced? "Why is it not broken? It's trash." Is it bad? "Why is this bad here? Give me something broken!" Again, the cycle never ends.
@@jtalkalot19 Typically, I hear people describe cards as either "broken" or "garbage". It's rarely anything in between, and can even be used to describe the same card. Just try to ignore them for the most part.
This is probably due to my inexperience with modern yugioh, consoderikg i havent play sonce xyz era. But i feel like i just watched seone play solitare for 15 minutes and then the other guy just saying nope, restart.
Based on the other games on stream, where he never tried to tag for 2, it was clearly accidental. He had the link banished and the line was to tag into the link and then the link tag into 2. Time Pressure & Spooky Dogwood clearly had him rushing to get his play done and he skipped a step.
Haven’t kept up with yugioh since GX but I seem to recall summoning 1 monster per turn was the norm. This video that got recommended to me just threw me for a loop
The ruling was wrong in my opinion - the card states that each EFFECT can be used once per turn - banishing to protect is not an effect activation. Only the first and third part of the description are card effects. It's just like Chengying protection, except it banishes itself instead of other cards, so a single copy can't be used more than once per turn.
@@ivicapavic3381 Why do you think that effect to banish and protect isn't an actual effect? You still trying to use an effect to protect. It being activated or not is irrelevent And for your example with Chengying it's different because his restriction says "You can only use THIS effect of "Swordsoul Supreme Sovereign - Chengying" once per turn." referring to last effect which is banish 2 cards. Effect to protect himself by banishing GY card doesn't have an restriction
Unironically I can see Konami limiting boardbreakers like Raigeki or Lightning Storm to ""indirectly"" hit Tenpai. That would be the most Konami thing they could come up with.
If he did that he has 0 follow up for the next turn and he could have take an imperm too on protos that let him wirh just apollousa (sorry for m'y english i'm french xD)
I would really like to point out that everytime I watch these videos the qualifying people always shuffle up the cards in their grave… that is illegal and against the rules. They can be disqualified for it lol😂
If RB player make an apllousa before protos, he would win easyly, blocking nibiru. And game 3th he should make tenpay start. Unfortunately he played in zonfort zone without much precautions
@@EmmanuelFreytes while reaching that stage is an accomplishment of its own, playing so much in just 2 days is tiring enough to make you misplay despite reaching said stage. I can guarantee you everyone in top cut would perform WAY better if they were playing fresh instead of 3 rounds (10,11,12) + top 64 after a full day (9 rounds day 1) and some even the previous day due to Playoffs. Watching the hands then suggesting impossible lines to counter that specific situation is bs, I agree. But suggesting reasonable plays only helps players become better. For example I don't play RB but I assume Protos is the win condition so Apo/SP should be present to protect it resolve.
Actually not the case, he also had imperm in hand, which you could see at some point, also later in an interview he said that he had imperm too anyways
He had imperm as well, but he also had a line where he could have stuck protos with Gaiapelio and 2 names in hand. Search the Elder directly instead of with the spell, and normal elder + rampengu off the link, he could have sent Winda + Apelio as material for Nochiudrago and gotten an extra cannahawk search, allowing the protos to stick even after forgetting the 2nd cannahawk banish.
Yall that are saying dogwood needs to be banned (stop it get some help). She's not a problem card. No one was talking about her but now that she was used in a feature match yall are like bruh. This is like that lab match where they EEV there opponent whole hand and yall were calling for it to get banned🤦♀️
For those rooting for Julio, let's not pretend that Ritual Beast getting 2nd place is still an incredible achievement! They played better than every single player in the tourney except for Esteban.
Not for nothing the RB player made SEVERAL illegal plays and it feels intentional. Every time he was featured he made more than one illegal play. God only knows what he gets away with off camera.
You put back the same number of cards your opponent controls +6 RB player had 4 cards so+6 is 10 Esteban would only shuffle back if he had 10 or more cards in had but I believe he ended turn with only 9 cards in hand
@addioshibuya2100 what I'm saying is he played 10+ hrs of yugioh over 2 days anyone would forget stuff after that much yugioh. I'm not saying it happens often but some people do forget.
@@bluekittie6630 i understand that, but the combination of him being a great player, playing this deck for years and doing these illegal plays even before Round 7 leads me to the conclusion he was trying to get an advantage
@gamersreactions9267 I get that and it's a possibility. If this was very early like before round 5 I would 100% agree but since it was the final either could be right.
I really hope protoss gets rebanned. Get that card out out of the game lol Much more exciting event though than the NAWCQ and I think many people would agree with that.
screw tenpai dragon it's just a one trick pony no skill to play it all you play are cards to break your opponents field and then they play Shifter to stop you from using your graveyard
@@Dheflexx Muskets are suddenly relevant due to fiendsmith, and ancient gears has just become viable after they got the appropriate support they needed and their strategy happened to be advantageous against the current dominant decks. Vendreads current power scale is nothing compared to the aforementioned decks at all! In addition, it's a ritual deck that mostly relies on specific 2 to 3 cards combos in order to end up on mere feeble boards. So yeah! Good luck getting getting good with that on a million hand trap and 1 card aggro combo environment.
Modern yu gi oh is literally the worst game ever lol, Konami did you see only shifter decks can play? Do you want improve the game or just leave it slowly Die?
You really don't know what your talking about do you. Only shifter decks can play? Did you see the north America Nats snake eye dominated. Clearly your not very smart making a dumbass comment.
@@ItSpooling_ no, just RB is that good, or drawing good all weekend, or not going up vs hard counter. Mixed of good deck, good luck, good player, and meta call. Protos and shifter also do a lot for RB win in this tournament.
@@ItSpooling_according from the judges he’s been playing rb since it came out in 2015 so he knows how to pilot the deck very well. Watch his matchup where he beats yubel fiendsmith. He outplayed the yubel player
Actually fair played from the tenpai Player G3 who knew he was ahead in LP big time and still played very fast.
Big ultra giga smart playing dogwood as skip turn basically(protos is a card) and then cleaning the board.
I am so proud of Italian TENPAI
@@Drachei someone doesnt sound happy xD
best part is that near the end they werent slow playing to give the other player time just incase they couldnt get game especially esteban
Don't need to preppy that do that just have no confidence
WAY better than another Fiendsmith Snake eyes mirror
No
This is not back and fourth, it’s just « i play spider on table for 5min, can you break my board after ? » it’s not even interesting to look at that matchup
Dogwood, purulia and 5000 boardbreakers god tier draws. Literally zero skill
Is just a brain dead matchup

The fact that fiendsmith snake eye didn’t win gave me chills
well both decks here are shifter decks so
Well both decks are shifter decks so
Nice. Congrats to tenpai player, sad for RB but u have done well.
Dogwood, shifter and purulia MVP this tournament.
Congrats to Esteban and all the duelists who made it. Amazing stream, very high quality
I'd rather get Protosed every game than play in a Fiendsmith SE meta going second. Protos can literally be stopped by a single hand trap.
True but dont forget shifter and d fissure
Wow actually a really entertaining match. Diversity makes for a more enjoyable viewing experience. Can’t stand constantly watching fiendsmith snake eye mirror matches in every top cut
This was actually a REALLY entertaining finals. Congratulations to both players.
Tenpai was created for smooth brains
Here we go players!!!... the best two in-archetype cards for their respective decks are
"Ritual beast Tamer Shifter", "Spiritual Beast Protos", and
"Tenpai Dragon Purulia", "Tenpai Dragon Dogwood"
Good game duelist!!!
Would be funny to come up with a (lore) logic that justifies these as part of the decks.
Dogwood is pro gamer move
I mean, Not for nothing, dogwood was used for its literal intended purpose & when dogwood & purulia are stacked like that, RB could have 100% chosen to not play through it the way they did. It was unnecessary
This is just a taste of what Fuwaross is going to do to the meta, lol
so, Ritual Beast main gameplay is just "how do I get to Protos" without any negate whatsoever??
It worked pretty well didnt it?
Actually its “ how do i floodgate my opponent with protos or shifter or D fissure”
@@shhhh4637not well enough id reckon
watched this at work yesterday, legendary duel
Can we get a duel between the winners of NAWCQ and EUWCQ?
you mean like.. worlds?
@@pawjabes2847 no no i mean just the 2 winners. In worlds we're not sure they'll face each other.

Crazy duel
Watch it in 1.25x speed, save yourself a bit of waiting without ruining the video.

There were no fiendsmith snake eyes in the finals, yet everyone still seems to be unhappy. 😅

TENPAI PLAYERS REJOICE
Imagine asking a judge if a card with a hard once per turn effect can be activated twice in the same turn
The ruling was wrong in my opinion - the card states that each EFFECT can be used once per turn - banishing to protect is not an effect activation. Only the first and third part of the description are card effects.

That could come up if someone ran Pyro Clock of Destiny
@ivicapavic3381 no the effect is only once per turn. It works and is worded like the salmangreat link 1.
Unironically I can see Konami limiting boardbreakers like Raigeki or Lightning Storm to ""indirectly"" hit Tenpai. That would be the most Konami thing they could come up with.

What is he doing at 0:55??
What a duel
Why game 2 Julio didn’t make apollousa after searching protos to at least have a monster negate for nib
