Another one Josh left out that's massively important: If you see your opponent play a card you've never seen before, READ IT. Every interaction they do is integral to the strategy, so ignoring it will do much more harm than good. It may be annoying, especially when your opponent's playing a deck you've never played against before, but in order to play against your opponent's board you need to know what it's doing. Take it from someone who bubbled out of a top cut because I didn't read Pendulum Call, and thus had no idea it protected their scales until their next turn on a lingering effect. Addendum: No, I'm not endorsing slow play. Ideally, you do a lot of testing on simulators or at locals to figure out what most of the relevant cards of the format do.

If he had just kept his mouth shut about that in the deck profile vid he wouldn’t have gotten banned.

One of the issues with pendulum cards is that the actual pendulum mechanics are very easy to understand its the decks that use it that are complicated. For example majespecter is very easy to understand but at the same time I've played against endymion multiple times and still have no clue whats going on most of the time. People see decks like endymion be complicated and assume its the entire pendulum mechanic thats complicated and not just those cards that are complicated.

True, as an endy player I can tell that it can look like the plays are unpredictable and not undertsandable but it really is often the same thing, we try to have negates (endy, jackal kings, and odd eyes) on the field, always by the same kind of combos (with servant and by linking a rank 7 xyz). Since endymion has the longest text in the entire franchise thanks to the monster and spell texts, and since there are spell counters everywhere, those who never played pendulum decks really do not want to learn when seing this.

If you're playing with friends and they know you're trying to learn, you could totally ask them things like "okay I'm about to banish something from your gy, what would be the most painful to you?" and I think that's fine. If your friends have more experience than you then they should be okay with helping you out because against good players they would get the right things banished or countered anyway, so it's also good practice for them. If you're at locals with people who are not quite your friends but still friendly people, in the same example as the previous one you could banish something from their gy first and THEN ask them "hey idk if that's the best target, but I already did the play, what would be the best banish target in this situation?" and that should be fine too, or if you wanna be super safe just wait until game is over to ask questions. I think if you're playing vs strangers and you're asking for help on the go you do look a little douchy cause if it's true you're trying to learn, you should be okay with losing and learning.

I think a really good tip is using the phases to your advantage. Example, wait until the battle phase to use a card like compulsion evacuation device. With Runick enter the Battle Phase then play the cards that make you skip your next battle phase so you can still attack this turn instead of using the cards in the main phase and skipping the last half of your turn (Also plays around a lot of cards that can only be used in the main phase). Mastering Phases is extremely important in getting better at YuGiOh.

@@admontblanc Because there's less cards that actually interact with the Extra Deck. Fundamentally it's just a gy for pend monsters, but you need specific cards to access those monsters. Sometimes you want to keep the pend monster on field or send it to grave or return to hand. With any other deck, you have the benefit of all of the cards in Yugioh that interact with the graveyard, whereas the pool of cards that interact with the extra deck is significantly smaller and usually have specific activation requirements. The other thing is that you do have control over whether a monster gets sent to face-up ED, gy, or banish zone, but it takes a lot of discipline and forethought to ensure the card ends up in the right zone so that you can use it later. And that's all for very little payoff compared to other meta decks.

@@kaibeh Basically you have a once-per-turn "Pendulum Summon", in which you can Summon as many monsters you want with these criteria: - You must have 2 Pendulum monsters in the Pendulum Zones (the leftmost and rightmost S/T zones). They are treated as Spell Cards while in these zones - The monsters you want to summon have to have their levels between your Pendulum Zone "scales", which are the numbers beside their Pendulum Effect. So, if one scale says 3 and the other says 5, you can only summon level 4 monsters - Pendulum monsters on the field, when destroyed, are sent to the Extra Deck face-up instead of going to the GY. - An exception to this is if your Pendulum Summon is negated by a card like Solemn Judgment; since they never hit the field, they get sent to the GY instead. You can Pendulum Summon face-up monsters from the Extra Deck, but they follow Link rules (ie. you need to summon to the Extra Monster Zone or a Zone that a Link Monster points to). That's pretty much it. It takes a lot of words to explain but isn't that hard to put into practice, especially since most Pendulum decks just treat them like Spell cards

A Pendulum Summon is a type of Special Summon. If you assume that properties like “being an activated effect” must be explicitly stated, the above describes the functionality of Pendulum Summoning. (Interactions like negating a Pendulum Summon are best left to the descriptions of other mechanics.) EDIT: You can only Pendulum Summon from your hand or face-up Extra Deck, not your face-down Extra Deck. EDIT: Further corrections. (The above edit summary used to say "face-up Extra Deck". It now says "hand or face-up Extra Deck", in a more accurate summary of the edit actually made.)

Meaning, I can summon monsters that are levels 2 - 7 to my field because Purple Poison Magician has a P-Scale of 1, and Double Iris Magician has a P-scale of 8.

I’ve always played more control-based decks and the one time I switched to a more fast-paced combo strategy (branded despia) I did poorly at nawcq. There were too many lines and too many interactions and different scenarios I just couldn’t keep track of everything in each game and I’m sure I misplayed almost if not every match. I learned a lot from the experience and now I know I gotta play a slower-paced deck. I get too nervous at big events. And if that means that playing a trap heavy deck is right for me to do well, then so be it.

People always ask if they will even ever use it and the answer is not wether you'll use it or not. It's that if you can learn and solve complicated problems your skills improve. If you can understand and perform calculus regularly, easier stuff will be even easier. Same with combo. If you can understand how to play combo, even if you don't play it you will understand easily when you see combo plays because you know the possibilities they can reach, instead of just wondering if they can keep playing.

Pendulum monsters have even more things going for them. Instead of going to the gave when leaving the field they attempt to hit the gave but then go to the extra deck face up and they have 2 text boxes 1 for there spell effect witch is between it's scale number on the card and then it's monster effect, witch can trigger even if the card is destroyed or leaves the pendulum scale.

I like floodgates because I like keeping my opponents honest. If you can kill me before I'm finished reading your 2nd card, you can change your deckbuilding slightly to deal with floodgates.

I really only like playing control decks, but honestly, playing a ton of floodgates doesn't interest me. I'd rather interact with my opponents, I have a pure subterrors/guru control deck I play a bunch of the behemoths as 1 ofs but 0 floodgates, and honestly, if I wanted to optimize, I dont think I'd add any floodgates. though I'd probably cut down to at max 2-3 behemoths and add a second warrior that card is super underrated. (assuming you play behemoths)

One thing that should’ve been added to the video: There’s no right or wrong deck to play and you shouldn’t shame someone for playing what they enjoy. Seriously you sound like a child when you tell people off for playing “easy floodgate”. Counter point, how about you get better with dealing with them?

Here is a very simple but basic explanation. Pendulum cards have 2 number on them. When you have 2 pendulums, you can special summon cards whose levels are in between the numbers on the 2 cards. You can summon as many from your hand as you can. However, pendulums from the extra deck can only be summoned to the extra monster zone or a zone a link points to. Pendulums are always treated as monster cards unless they're in the pendulum zones then and only then are they treated as spells. If a face-up pendulum on the field is destroyed, it goes face up in the extra deck instead of the graveyard. In all other cases, unless said otherwise by a card effect, they go to the graveyard as normal.

You can learn how pendulums work in about a minute. If you don't know, essentially: - You need two pendulum monsters in the pendulum zones to be able to pendulum summon, these are the scales - You can summon out as many monsters as you want whose levels are between the two scale numbers - The monsters you can summon are those in your hand or face up extra deck - Monsters from the face up extra deck can only be summoned to where a link could be summoned (the Extra Monster Zone or zones where link arrows are pointing) - You can only pendulum summon once per turn If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

I feel I am in the minority here, but I actually quite like floodgate cards as they are a hard counter to decks that focus too hard on doing one specific thing. I understand that with how yugioh archetype's work, that means floodgate's can just completely shut down an entire deck due to a lot of archetype's being not super flexible, but it's important to have them in a card game. It's just a thing which I personally feel is unfortunate that, instead of people making decks with slower rates of play that can accomodate for those floodgates, the community at large has doubled down on the current pace of the game (And in the case of cards like Maxx C, banned them depending on format...not that people responded by slowing down when it came to Maxx C in OCG either sadly...) One of my favourite floodgates and cards in the game At least in speed duels, so...duel links basically. is Summon Breaker, because in that format it suddenly adds a resource into the game by limiting you to 2 summons, but giving you the option to give up your battle phase for a third summon. Floodgates like those are the best designed in my opinion, because they have both a hard and soft limit to them. Asking you what you're willing to give up to proceed with your playstyle...though obviously due to the main phase 1 part of the card it doesn't really work in that cool a fashion outside of speed duels

"stop blaming bad luck every time you lose" So I'm supposed to think bricks are just proof I'm not good enough at shuffling? Oh yeah, my opponent opening the 3 best starters and board breakers in their deck didn't decide the game before a card ever touched the field. That was just skill issue. Yugioh is inherently random, you will lose to bad luck more than anything else.
