Yugioh takes a lot to play correctly depending on the format. Especially in Chaos Format, Goat Format, Edison Format, DD Turbo, DADReturn, Six Sam/Fishborg/Monarch, Dino Rabbit, HAT, EDrags, and even up through Qliphort and Nekroz Mirrors. The game takes a lot of knowledge to consistently top events. There is always so much you need to account for.

>dood meme edition
> For the rest of this turn after this card resolves, you cannot draw any cards by card effects
so this is the power of not reading and only caring about the old days

I haven't played since the OG cards/rules.

How could the game possibly have changed so much that deleting all of your opponent's monsters in a monster battle game be almost useless?

Attached: 45.png (213x165, 2K)

battle phase barely matters when it's all about setting up the field

FTKs are a lot more common.

Because half their monsters can negate destruction effects and the other half special summon a different monster when they die. That's assuming that they didn't just kill you before you even got the chance to play Raigeki in the first place

Most top decks can mindlessly spam out monsters so killing them all isn't as big of a deal. Not only that but graveyard has been a second hand for a while now so sending to the grave can sometimes help the opponent. And on top of that, a lot monsters have built in protection effects nowadays. It is to the point where people run a monster that lets you tribute enemy monsters for its summon just because it cant really be negated in most scenarios

How do these games play out with the modern rules IRL?

I last played when most cards did not have paragraph effect explanations, and the few that did were pretty straightforward. So many cards nowadays have paragraph long bullshit that like "do this only when this condition is met and is also dependent on X Y and Z." Do people have to explain this out loud to their IRL opponents, or do regular plays just have all this shit memorized?

>I last played when most cards did not have paragraph effect explanations, and the few that did were pretty straightforward.
Its fucking mindblowing that Yugioh STILL hasn't just lifted the keyword system from MtG
There is no fucking reason for cards that have the exact same effect as thousands of other cards to have a literal essay explaining what they do every time.

Depends on where you go. Autists and neckbeards will always have it memorized. From experience, local card shop tournaments seem to only have a small handful of people who actually memorize rulings. The most fun you'll have is playing casually at these events.

It is not that hard.

>values mattering outside of things like o/ftks
since your post is kind of conflicting I'm still gonna promo link evolution

The game has always been kind of convoluted. Part of this was just bad card design or overly convoluted mechanics and how they interact with each other leading to a stupid amount of rulings for specific scenarios. Also they never bothered really attempting to fix their game till problem solving card text. They just add more stuff instead of fixing what is already there.

so what you crying about, missing the timing?
OCG release rulings before every product

>A few turns go by
Usually, they don't.
Anyway, a lot of value changes are temporary and end at the end of the turn (or your opponent's next turn). For those that aren't they have stuff like "gains attack based on number of counters", "xyz material", shit like that.
The Tag Force games. Yes, even 4, 5, and Special.

The graveyard is basically a second-hand deck for most decks, so you're often doing your opponent a favor. That being said, Raigeki isn't useless, it's just not as powerful as it used to be, which is why it's no longer banned and is limited to one. I like to run Volcanics because they essentially have a Raigeki you can easily recycle, can have set up at almost any time, and it even does decent burn damage each time at 1500.

I run Volcanics, and if you happen to have Doomfire out and proc his ability, he can nuke floaters with it, which is pretty helpful.

Tributing is without a doubt the best removal for problem monsters, yeah. I run 2 Volcanic Queens in my deck specifically because of that. The plus side is that if I don't need them, I can always just trash them with Blaze Accelator Reload to draw a card.

still the same since they have it in eras
>f/l is kinda messed up worlds despite ocg freeing
well original legacy of the duelist works too

I do believe a lot of practice + autism makes almost anything possible, also atk\def changing effs aren't really used anymore
I am wondering how people will be able to play with endy though, I love spell counters but I will never be able to play outside of YGO-Pro

Endy players always carry shitloads of dice with them and/or are members of MENSA

There are a handful of keywords now for the easier to explain effects. You have banish instead of "removing from play", piercing instead of "inflict damage equal to the difference of this monsters attack and the opponent's monsters defense", for example. There's a lot of effects that are very specific though, which is why Yugioh reads like legal text. That being said, There are definitely more spots to use keywords in that just haven't done it yet. For example, I would personally write a floating effect as something like float; [specific monster], or something like that, instead of explaining that you can special summon X monster from the deck.

>shitloads
>when there are d20s
or are you the guy who doesn't believe in those

d20s aren't enough for this : youtu.be/84WcL85b_DY

Endymion boards tend to have at least 4 cards packed with spell counters at a given time, so you do need multiples.

How about you google it yourself, gramps.

>cherrypicked
>imaginary
could you quit spam-ading this guy already

How about you gargle my saggy ballsack

Yugioh players would kill their mothers to draw two cards

>write a floating effect as something like float; [specific monster], or something like that, instead of explaining that you can special summon X monster from the deck
You'd still have to specify the type of floating, destruction by card effect, battle, both, being used as material, or simply leaving the field, and if it can miss timing as well as any restrictions

????

I hadn't considered that, damn. What other things could have keyword text? I'm at a loss about that.

It okay. First season start out slow, but it picks up pretty fast. Second season has some great characters, monster designs, and moment, but suffer from dragging out too long for its own good. I would give it a watch if you have the time. Right now, season 3 is starting and its getting hype as hell.

Unironically what is the appeal of modern yugioh?

introduce levels for spells and traps, so they (the strongest ones) need tributes to be played
you could even unban Pot of Greed thanks to this

I hope SOMEONE did. She deserves a good dicking.

You're comparing a game that cuts off cards after a certain amount of time to one that is constantly growing. Go to speed format if you want less

Well yeah, they had no idea what they were doing when making the jump to a "serious" card game franchise. That's why so many of the initial cards they made were not made with the future of the game in mind.

Attached: PainfulChoice-DLG1-NA-C-UE.png (400x584, 476K)

>Did I mention I run Volcanics?

Actually the game had stayed the same up until around the early xyz era

Beatdown's were still common, there weren't a lot of card with busted effects, Some of the strongest monsters required a lot of set-up which would last the whole game, Spells and Traps still had unique effects and weren't all about floating effects.
Utopia was a staple in a lot of decks and the most busted shit was Wind-ups. Six Sams, Inzektors, and fucking Dino Rabbits which was a straight up unga bunga

But the game has changed very drastically since 2012 when utopia reigned supreme

It was only in about 2014 where we entered Nu-Yugioh phase
With the release of Starter Deck 2014 and the introduction of Pendulum's the game shifted formats to
>Everything is Board set-up
>Take 20 minutes turns
>Draw out your entire deck
>Archtypes and 5 - 6 decks reign supreme

So Zombie Yugioh has been around only for 5 years

Ironically, user's deck would have worked fine in a regional even at 2012
Penguin solider could devistate
Axe of despair is very strong as a beat down tool
Breaker was always viable for backrow destruction since there was little ways to get rid of battle traps with the bans of heavy storm and the limits on MST

These are the extreme minority, don't even try to pretend otherwise. In fact, magic and yugioh are both similar in that there were a handful of beyond broken cards in their inception that are broken today, like PoG and Ancestral Recall. As well as having absolute shitters which would better serve as kindling like this piece of junk.
