Always fives for my favorite guys

To answer your question from the beginning of last week’s episode; it’s not even so much that snake-eyes is a problem. Because it’s very easy to build a deck centered around countering any strategy. But then said deck may not necessarily fair well against anything else. I’ve been skipping locals lately mainly because I can’t find the time to adequately prepare. But also because the format is very unappealing. So while snake-eyes, tenpai, voiceless, and labyrinth are all formidable threats, I honestly believe it would be in the players’ AND Konami’s best interest for Konami to invest in meta-level support more regularly for a broader array of archetypes. It’s a win/win for everyone.

Love You Guys!

Found you guys thanks to the YouTube recommendations and I’ve been hooked ever since. I was so excited when I found out that you have your own podcast.

Aside from how funny your videos are, I love how wholesome and genuine you guys are. It’s clear that you love the game and your fans and that is all there is to your content. It’s a breath of fresh air to find such dedicated creators who are here for the same reason we are: to have fun. I cannot overstate how refreshing it is to find a group such as yourselves who don’t fall into the outright toxicity that we’re plagued with these days.

Thanks for all the hard work and I hope you have fun doing it.

P.S. Always been curious, what are your favorite cards and why? Mine’s Demise Supreme King of Armageddon; his art, effect, and archetype just hit it home for me.

Don’t quit early!

Hey guys love your content I actually got back into yugioh after coming across your YouTube channel. I am a 31 year father of 3 and I casually play master duel whenever I get the chance, and what you are saying about quitting early is so true! I currently play Tear Horus, and had 3 games recently on my rank up to Master 5 from Diamond 1 where I was about to surrender, but I thought about what you said, and I won those games because my opponent just simple couldn’t out grind me, or they made a mistake and quit when I was dead in the water! I can not wait to teach my children this wonderful game.
