or have any sort of templating. i also believe some of the translations are literal which has led to cards working differently in america and japan

My favourite thing about yugioh is that it doesn't really use creature types, instead it does tribes based on card names. It's also English translated from Japanese, so you get tribes that include just the prefix of a word, and cards that say "search your deck for a {tribe} card except for {a list of every single older card that got translated to use the same word but isn't supposed to be in the tribe}".

Looking forward to yugioh having no text on cards and requiring a codex to play in 10 years.

You mean going back to the original anime representation where players had to tell their opponents (and the audience) what every card did?

Kild posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOJr1dTPSis I have not watched the entire series for reasons but I like how apparently, later in the show, rules of the game actually start to matter and Kaiba needs to sacrifice two monsters to summon Blue-Eyes rather than just playing it straight from his hand like characters did early on in the show honestly the early episodes that i've pushed through give me a headache because so many rules of the game are straight up ignored and yugi only ever seems to win by some sort of cheating

early yugioh is great because it's more about how much of a jerk every character is and yugi just owning all of them, like the games hardly even matter that much in terms of rules. maybe it's taken from super early yugioh before the card game, where yugi would just make up games/rules on the spot and banish people into their own personal hell.

Dude just plays the classic game of "I win" that little kids play where rules are changed and the only one that does not is that they will always win.

To be fair the show was about a literal child who wants to hang with his friends and be super cool. It makes a lot more sense if you imagine it like that episode of south park where they all play ninjas.

Eh I was always willing to turn a blind eye to that since both players would do it and to be perfectly honest I love cheesy poo poo like attacking the moon or turning the game field into a labyrinth or using a time wizards power to turn a dragon into a fossil or...

It makes a lot more sense if you imagine it like that episode of south park where they all play ninjas. Yugi’s actually like, 17 or something. He’s just kind of short and childish looking. Flat out he and all his friends are in their last year of high school, Tea is looking at going to a professional dance school. As for how this relates to Magic the Gathering. Seto Kaiba is based on a friend of the writer who played Magic the Gathering and was exactly that insufferable, but possibly not that cool. Given Kaiba once defeated a gun with a yugioh card. Not even magically, he threw the card to jam the hammer and then punched the guy in the face.

The friend I got into magic tried to get me into yugioh once but it was all counterfeit cards that read like nonsense because they were machine translated. My friend said it was ok because he had all the cards memorized anyway. Nevermind that he always tried to cheat at magic. I'm going to imagine the anime is what would've happened if I played the game instead of calling bullshit.

Kaiba is the best part of Yugioh The new movie had him rebuild the Millenium Puzzle to try to drag the Pharoah from heaven and when that didn’t work he makes a machine to send his mind to the loving afterlife for a rematch because he’s just so salty

Yugioh Season 0 is the best because it's before the card game ever comes into it and Yugi is just a possessed teenager randomly murdering people who annoy him.

TheKingofSprings posted:Kaiba is the best part of Yugioh He absolutely is but that movie is kind of infuriating because it’s explicitly based on the manga continuity not the anime continuity. In the anime Kaiba is there for Yugi beating Pharaoh and recognises Yugi as a worthy rival. In the Manga he disappears at the end of Battle City. His best moment is in my opinion his backstory as a CEO and Owner of KaibaCorp when as an 8 year old he challenges a war profiteer weapons manufacturer to a game of chess and wins against a literal grandmaster, forcing him to adopt Seto and Mokuba. It then takes him 6 years to learn how to run Kaiba Corp and he proceeds to buy out his adoptive father, who is admittedly an rear end in a top hat, using a second chess game. At which point his adoptive father walked out of a window. If Kaiba was a planeswalker he probably would’ve solved Nicol Bolas ages ago and would 100% defeat him by summoning a bunch of rad super powerful dragons. Possibly whilst piloting his Jet Engine shapes like a dragon.

Arivia posted:Share! Share!  I only remember distinctly this comparison. Wanna guess why one of these is 4 bucks and the other is 250? So, Yugioh does this thing where if you win a tournament, you get a prize card. Which is exclusive to that tournament. And legal in tournaments. Yes, Giant Hand was once, an 800 some dollar card, because it was tournament legal and also good in the meta it was relevant in. And then they threw it in a tin, 2 years later.
