New videos typically go live between 17:00 and 18:00 CEST. You can then find them embedded below, alongside lists of featured cards/decks and additional information.




Tuesday

This Yu-Gi-Oh! card not only helps stop mill-based strategies but also has unique text. On no other card does this phrasing appear, and it's a wonder why Konami haven't changed it to have standard problem-solving card text.




Wednesday

Yu-Gi-Oh! was a juggernaut in the early 2000s and quickly became that era's best-selling card game. Despite this monumental success, a legal battle between the two companies involved in the TCG's distribution almost brought the Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game to a halt in Europe and the Americas.

This video details the story of some of Yu-Gi-Oh!'s most infamous counterfeited cards, and how they almost ended the game as we know it. This is the story of Konami versus Upper Deck Entertainment.

The cards that were counterfeited and their rarities:

Thursday

This strategy doesn't take your opponent's strategy into consideration. It just takes their deck.




Friday

Sometimes in Yu-Gi-Oh! decks get too strong and get murdered by a ban list, or they are powercrept out of the meta by newer stronger releases. Nobody plays Drytron anymore, but why is this the case, and what would it need to come back?
