the reason why he said at least 1 spell counter is because at that time call of the haunted was a standard staple card in most decks. so if you had an Exe in your grave, you'd just pop call either during their battle phase or end phase, work around the "cannot attack the turn its summoned" penalty. and only have to pay 1 spell counter rather than 2 spell counters to get a single attack in with it. which at that time is still absolutely horrible. considering for 3 spell counters if someone used a skilled white or skilled dark magician they could get a 3000 or 2500 beat stick out for no real cost, that can attack the turn its summoned and lacks an upkeep cost. not a competetive alternative mind you, but still an infinitely better alternative to armor exe

Fushioh Richie is actually the same name it has in Japanese. The name in Japanese is 不死王リッチー written in romaji literally as Fushiou Ricchi. Romanization isn't really standardized, so Fushioh Richie is also a possible variant. The Richie part is the result of the English word "lich" being transliterated into Japanese as リッチー and then back into English differently. The "Nosferatu" part in the Japanese name is a bit more complicated to explain. In Japanese, there is something called 当て字 (ateji), which is when you use kanji for the meaning, but then add a new phonetic reading. You'll see the ateji written above the kanji making it essentially written as 不死王 (fushiou or "undying king"), but pronounced ノスフェラトゥ (nosferatu) They do this with a lot of cards in Japanese.

Note about Richie's name: "fushioh" means translates to "Deathless King", which kind of relates to "Nosferatu" since that's usually just another name for vampires (kind of deathless beings), especially in Japan. The "Richie" part is much more straightforward surprisingly. What most likely happened is that the translator read the Japanese phonetization of Lich, what I assume was probably "リッチ" (ricchi) and thought it was the name "Richie".

If only this guy had come about when Cyberse monsters were a thing, because I very clearly remember wondering what was up with this armored dude who wasn't a computer file. It's nice that they put a pronunciation guide somewhere because how the heck were we supposed to know otherwise? More games need pronunciation guides, and the ones that do need to do it more.

Additional commentary for two cards: For Armor Exe, the following is worth mentioning besides the Skill Drain Beatdown argument. And the reason why other beaters with drawbacks saw competitive play. On a fundamental level, Armor Exe is a combo piece and a bad one at that. Goblin Attack Force could potentially kill one threat by itself before dying. The same with Zombyra but with more longevity at the cost of not being able to attack directly. But having summoning sickness on top of needing other cards to survive is comparatively bad. For Great Phantom Thief, a big drawback is that you are foreshadowing your strategy if it somehow survives one turn. If the opponent somehow isn't able to remove it (no removal cards and there's an equip spell on it idk), they are incentivized to play or Set their most important or valuable card(s). Funny enough, what wasn't mentioned... besides being able to potentially discard 2+ cards being a pro, looking at your opponent's hand is also pretty good. But of course, for the reasons explained in the vid, not worth the trouble.

Things that made a bad card: • Performing an action that doesn't really affect the gamestate. Most of these effects can best be summed with "build your deck better" or "actually play counters." Why play Magical Mallet to go -1 to maybe fix your hand when you can run draw cards (and why play cards to counter having bad hands...you should build your deck to be actually good...the odds of having a garbage hand + Magical Mallet and THEN drawing a good hand are slim to none)? Senet Switch can help you fix bad link plays...but you can just learn your combo lines to put the right cards in the right zones. • Cards with ridiculous activation/summoning conditions that can easily be replaced by a single card with essentially zero cost. Why play Fushioh Richie when cards like Call of the Haunted, Premature Burial, and Monster Reborn were legal at the same time? Sometimes a card with a ludicrous activation condition can be good if the meta's right (Full House is way too specific to actually be good 99% of the time, but damn was it good against Qliphort...3 set traps and their scales active? Here comes Uncle Joey!). I don't count cards that are supposed to be weaker versions of cards that were limited/banned like Twister and all the other worse MSTs that came out while MST was limited (between Oct. 2004 and March 2010), because how can you release an equal to/better than version of a staple card that's been at 1 for 5 years? •Deliberately terrible cards with only negative effects. Yado Karu, Cold Feet, Pot of Generosity, etc. Magical Mallet is my pick for worst card of all time that isn't either intentionally bad or designed to be wicked hard to play for a payoff that might be underwhelming.
@ShiningJudgment666

Magical Mallet is hilariously bad. It was supposed to be Reload with a more 'flexible' effect at the cost of not being Quick Play. The funny thing is, Reload is still better because it's a Quick Play Spell and it had applications because of that in deep draw Exodia variants. Card design over all back in the day was really inconsistent where you'd use generic cards over the archetype/type specific ones because the type specific ones were either worse or just outright awful (of course some exceptions while rare existed where they were good enough to justify use). These days, Konami design archetype specific cards to be better (searchable archetypal Monster Reborns that can also do more).

there's a few actually, including Elemental Hero Prisma, Fusion Tag, Phantom of Chaos. Ancient Gear Gadget is my favorite, being able to change his name to any Gadget monster you want, even random stuff that had nothing to do with the archetype, like Gadget Soldier.

I think it was in Nightmare Troubadour that they gave Senri Eye to Pegasus to replicate his mind scan. I laughed whenever he activated it because that was one less spell card to worry about.

Pharaoh's Treasure *does* lose you card advantage. You take a -1 the turn you activate it, then effectively replace your draw the turn you get the effect. That's a -1 overall.

The funny part of Kishido Spirit is it's actually a perfect partner card with a 200 Attack Monster called Cat's Ear Tribe.

The real problem with 8-Claws Scorpion was that it's strictly outclassed by Sasuke Samurai (also from PGD), which had better stats all around, a stronger destruction effect, and searchability by ROTA.

I loved Pharaonic Guardian, still play cards in it to this day. But it did have its stinkers for sure. I have used Card Shuffle though as somewhat jank card selection when using Convulsion of Nature and Archfiend's Oath.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="8">0:08</a> Let’s see I I could improve this one: _Greater Dezard_ (DARK) Level 4 Spellcaster/Effect While you control a “Fushioh Richie” on the field, Once per turn (quick effect) you can special summon this card. If this card destroys a monster by battle, it can attack again in a row. If this card destroys the following number of cards by battle or card effect, the following effects are activated in order: One: As long as this card remains face-up on the field, negate the activation and effects of all Spell and Trap Cards that target this card and destroy them. Two: (quick effect) You can Special Summon 1 "Fushioh Richie" from your hand or Deck by Tributing this card during either players Main Phase. ATK:1900 DEF/2100

I remember playing Armor Exe on the playground. Nobody knew what a spell counter was so we just ignored it. Card was broken. Breaker was just once per turn MST.

There's a method to the Great Dezard that is clearly overlooked, it doesn't need to send monsters to the grave for it's effect to work. Using Ojama Trio (a trap that give an opponent tokens) and Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce (or any equip that gives 2 attacks), destroy the tokens with attacks and get Fushioh Richie that turn. Fushioh is part and parcel in my Ghostrick deck, using this combo to get back any Ghostrick monster (they're all zombies!) It's niche at best, but it works! Dezard and Fushioh are my two favorite cards in Yu-Gi-Oh!

One slight note about phantom thief. It can technically discard up to 3 cards if your opponent has all three copies of whatever in their hand. Not likely, but it's possible for it to discard more than most normal discard effects.

Say what you want about the crappy effects but early yugioh had style. The artwork was like berserk and Devilman, featuring horror-themed monsters that looked like they had mysterious or dark origins. I just love how they looked like crazy anime creatures from 90s manga

I think you overlooked something about Great Phantom Thief. Even if the card name you declared isn't in your opponent's hand, you still have the benefit of being able to see every card in your opponent's hand. It may not contribute to card advantage, sure, but that extra bit of knowledge can help a player prep for future turns, especially in the slower days. With that in mind, I'd argue that Great Phantom Thief doesn't deserve the spot of the worst card of the bunch.

Fushioh Richie = Undying Lich FuShiô - „Undying / Life never ends“ Richie - bad translation of Lich, as Japanese has a glide sound that is phonetically between /R/ and /L/ (thus is extremely often mistaken for each other when the original japanese intent was the other Western letter). Also, there’s no syllables except for „N“ which ever end in consonants. For that reason, the closest vowel that‘d make sense with the pronunciation of the word is chosen (in this case: Chi = Ch) and bad translators sometimes don’t omit that when they absolutely should. Yugioh is CHOCKFUL of this stuff though. I could give you more than 10 for a fun video + detailed explanations if ya ever need them :)

I would imagine there are some ruling problems with pharaos treasure, because how can you make sure that it is shuffled randomly into the Deck? You might shuffle it to the top - by accident or sheer luck, but your opponent gets to cut your Deck anyway, Kind of Removing the randomness, doesnt it?
