@@JettyYuki True, but the "creators will" thing sure saves Konami's ass and is in their best interest as they don't have to reward invested players, keep the money for themselves (despite Yu-Gi-Oh being insanely expensive, especially competitively, and Konami making more than enough money to reward players that top), and instead, just use this excuse as a cop out every time. Kinda disgusting of Konami, honestly. I respect Kazuki Takahashi, but I'm sure it was impossible for him to foresee how big and expensive Yu-Gi-Oh would get, and when other popular TCGs have better prizing (like Magic and Pokemon) I'm not sure if he would still be opposed to cash prizing. That's not even taking into consideration NOWADAYS the immense uproar from the playerbase where even Konami had to recently ask a survey on what better prizing would players want, acknowledging how horrible the current prizes are in tournaments. Kazuki Takahashi didn't run the competitive game or have any say in that, he had little input on card arts and minor stuff, but even his OCG cards like Magi Magi Magician girl and other cards were subject to Western censorship/localization against his will. So, if he became more aware of the current competitive Yu-Gi-Oh landscape, and how Konami is milking them and making the game easily accessible for OCG on top of poor prizing, he could very well change his mind. Also, with the Nintendo deal, surely they can hand out the outdated Switch --- 2017, and March of that year, so it's closer to 2016, and worth less than a hundred lol --- alongside actual prizes of value, thus both satisfying their playerbase and their deal with Nintendo.

OCG has a more balanced distribution of accessibility for its playerbase. For the TCG, accessibility is leaned disproportionately towards those who can pay ridiculous prices. When the game stops being fun, if the reward (financial reward) doesn't at least equate to the investment or if people lose value on their investment, people will stop investing into the game. It's not that hard to figure out.

It needs to be a fucking lifestyle to do even ok at. (I do top and win at locals) Its so time consuming to “learn the combos”, study the meta, keep up with prices, not to mention the different shops and communities. Its become so “exclusive” and it was inclusive for the first half. Now its tier 0 or nothing. I don’t have 100 extra hours a week to study and look up info just to play for 5-8 hours once a week successfully. I loved this game for 25 years. The new cards are cool tho (not fiendsmith, snake eyes etc) but the new yubel, hero, and legacy meta level stuff keeps me interested. Hoping stuff like fighting flameswordsman become viable soon.

Around the time our decks were almost finished, we got hit by the next banlist and our decks dropped hard in viability. Given the choice to scramble and learn something new and drop more money on more cards to make up for what we lost... we just decided to stop playing Yugioh.

The main issue is that you get between 1/2 to 1/3 of the high rarity cards we do in the OCG. The OCG gives you between 4-6 Ultra Rares which is the equivalent of our 2 secret Rares. On top of getting 6-8 supers compared to our 4 ultra Rares. You can see this in the price of all OCG cards being roughly 50-60% less. The multiple rarities are absolutely part of it, but they will help treat the symptoms rather than cure the issue.

Dang, sorry to hear that prices (and the market as a whole) for YuGiOh has gotten this out of hand. I have never played the game competitively and have never had the desire to, but I have in the past dabbled and enjoyed it casually. I enjoyed the game on a casual level, but when it came to competitive play there were always other TCGs that I enjoyed more at that level. Got into Flesh and Blood a few years ago (then had to take a two year hiatus to get finances in order), and I'm so glad I did! I love the game, and the creators genuinely seem to care about the playability and cost of playing the game. A lot of your suggestions for how YuGiOh could be made more affordable are already done by Legend Story Studios. Cash prizes for big events (significant ones), exclusive promo rarity versions of cards for Top 8 of said events (gold foils), multiple rarity printings of important cards in each box, etc. If you haven't checked the game out yet I'd say it's worth giving a shot and seeing if you like it. I believe the game has already turned the Big 3 into the Big 4. Hey, a mass migration of MtG players a few years ago seemed to have caught Wizard's attention if even just a little bit, maybe the same thing could happen for YuGiOh if they notice themselves losing players to a game which does all the things you listed and at least tries to respect players' investment and preserve the affordable playability of the game.

I don't know why everyone has their panties in a twist over the cost of Yu-Gi-Oh suddenly. It hasn't just gotten expensive, it's been that way for like 15 years at this point. You must all be too young to remember DAD format. If anything the cost of a top deck has decreased when compared to box prices and general inflation. The only thing that has changed thanks to power creep is the top decks have become much faster and more consistent, so rather than a game being a back and forth over several turns it now hinges on whether you drew the correct hand traps in your opening hand to interrupt your opponents long convoluted combo. I suspect what people are actually frustrated about is not that the cost of top decks is increasing (because objectively speaking it isn't), but that the amount of fun they are getting for that money is going down and so the juice is no longer worth the squeeze.

And they're easy to control; kill the previous expensive META, then they will spend money again for new expensive META deck. Konami really handle this game like a P2W game. . And this is why the competitive YGO looks boring (very monotone). They kill the diverse format pretty fast.

Just saying, you can't print just a playset of a card without destroying the other cards in a sheet. Most likely they need to print 50+ copies and destroy 20+ copies that don't print out as well. Which again will make the cards value under $ 1,000 each due to print numbers. Also, why would they print only 30 copies of a staple card that can be worth $ 1,000 rather than include that special rarity in a set and make $ 10 million. Just doesn't make sense. Konami could lower the YCS tournament fee and the amount of packs you get at the gate, essentially eating the rest of the cost to rent out the space. Other competitors already do this, so I see this as a reasonable change.

OCG is Asian Countries. TCG is European countries and Americas. Also in the box that came with Bonfire and Snake Eye Poplar they printed those cards as Ultra Rare, and the cards weren't short printed either, and guess what? We still had $90 Bonfires, and $90 Poplars. The vendors control the pricing, and the competitive players are the ones who keep the prices high. The problem really is that we need to sync our game with the OCG so that nobody can create prices based on what the meta in the OCG is. That would create a market where the price to buy in is low initially and then grows as people figure out the meta, and who knows we might have an era where the OCG and the TCG develop their meta much differently as well.

@@CHA0SBLEEDS I think everyone is aware about the OCG and Tcg differences. See here’s the thing. Supply and demand if it’s more likely you can get a card guaranteed for a price even if that price is stupid. People will pay that instead of chancing the box and maybe not getting my it.

@@JettyYuki You said in your video, "the OCG can't legally print cards any other way". Then go on to cite European laws, but Europe has the same cards as the West. The reality is, the reason cards are so expensive right now in the TCG is because we are pretty much in a tier 0 format. So vendors can easily price things because they know what cards will be popular in the meta. If the banlist "fixes" that then we will could go back to "reasonable" prices again, as vendors can't easily predict the meta.

ultras in side sets are the same as secrets in core sets in terms of rarity, the prices are that high due to a combination of rarity & box cost, ocg cards are cheap because the overall rarity is lower (due to multiple printings & better ratios from less pack fluff) AND the box prices are cheaper over there too.

@JettyYuki

@@joooja that. Is a great question. More or less, the Secondary market throws a bunch of prices at the wall when cards come out they get mega high, and slowly drop until people buy them. Given how rare some cards are people are more inclined to grab at higher costs. Why do they do this? I really don’t know.

I touched apon it briefly but I guess I could've gone into it in more depth! More or less In the TCG Engraver is Printed in QCR An Secret in the OCG it's printed in QCR, Secret, Ultra and ulti basically diluting how hard it is to get the card. you can get it in a shiner rarity but it doesn't raise the price of the card for no reason!
