And it's incredible how well explained and in depth it all was, I am seriously sending this to one of my friends to help him get better at the game and pose more of a challenge. Seriously, it's so fun to play with my friends who do not ever run any hand traps or disruption, I can just out combo them everytime, especially considering that I have an excellent track record at rock-paper-scissor lol, as I understand card advantage and how to use the staples better than them and don't have to limit my consistency by thinking of their own negate and combo too much ........ But I still wish for them to improve(and they slowly do). Winning is nice and all but since I had only like 2 losses in the last two months (one being me surrendering turn 1 after realizing I chose the wrong deck and the second one was me messing up at one point in my combo and getting finished instead of doing a full blown OTK) it just gets a bit boring after a while, so I really appreciate that a freaking April Fool's video of all things is that good that it can legitimately help my friend.

@@bulletflight Agreed. enforcing a special summon limit would probably slow down the game to early synchro or early Xyz era (minus stuff like turbo-ing out quasar) , without making it straight up boring. It would also be refreshing as it would shake up the format by penalising combo decks, which would effectively raise more varied decks without actually buffing them. Hell, maybe it would create a control heavy format, which would suck, but since a lot of control decks focus on restricting special summons, maybe some other archetypes would see more play. Also, a slower game state may encourage more reliance on stall tactics. Traps would probably see a lot more play, too. Honestly, I'm all for a separate format that restricts special summons, just to see how the game would evolve, kind of like how Cardfight Vanguard has Premium and Standard format.
@CallMeNevermore

@@bulletflight It's a blowout against combo decks, but control and midrange decks play just fine under Maxx "C". If Maxx "C" gets unbanned then it must go to 3. It doesn't do the game justice if it's legal at a number lower than 3 because it becomes polarizing if both players don't have a good chance of drawing it in their opening hand. I used to hate Maxx "C", but I realized how vital it is to the game. Late 2018 had extra linking, Gumblar Dragon hand looping, Danger Dark World FTK, Slash Draw FTK, Gem Knight FTK, 5 material Rhongomyniad and maybe a few more things I can't think of at the moment. Even though the game currently doesn't have as many problems as it used to during the late 2018 formats, Maxx "C" is the best card to make sure things don't get too crazy.

Make it so you cannot activate cards from the hand for the rest of the turn, and during the end phase you shuffle cards to the deck until you have the same amount you had before activating Maxx C.

Alright here's my fix for Maxx "C". The wording is a bit clunky, but it gurantees Max "C" goes hand neutral at best: During either player's turn: You can send this card from your hand to the Graveyard; this turn, the first time your opponent Special Summons a monster(s), immediately draw 1 card, then, each time your opponent Special Summons an additional monster(s), immediately draw 1 card and if you do shuffle 1 card from your hand into the deck. You can only use 1 "Maxx "C"" per turn. So the punishment for pushing through Max "C" isn't card advantage, it's a perfectly tailored starting hand. Turn player can evaluate if they think they can beat a perfect hand with combo or to stop combo at any point to make the odds of a perfect hand less likely after 0-3 more special summons. I'm not sure how balanced the decision making would ultimately be, but it has a lot more nuance versus the choice of none or all as it currently is.

How much play does Magical Mallet see, going -1 for an 80% redraw?. Trying to drastically limit the card advantage the card provides kinda defeats it’s purpose. A lot of Errata fixes the “broken” aspect of a card, but only at the cost of ensuring the card is never played again competitively. Brionac was hot stuff when it could return YOURS *or* your opponents cards for a 1 discard/1 return ratio, then it was changed into a 6-star reusable Compulsory Evacuation: The Monster, and it vanished into the same Ignore Box where 400 ATK/500 DEF 4-star Normal Monsters go to rot.

@@shawnpanzegraf5642 I don’t think magical mallet is a fair comparison, the max c change isn’t a minus one, it only has the replace effect on summons 2+. There’s also a difference between magical malleting 5 cards to draw 5, vs draw 1 replace 1 5 times as your odds of having cards you want in your hand doing it 5 separate times is significantly higher than just drawing 5 random cards all at once.

This was an excellent explanation of card advantage for older YGO players thank u. I would fix it to say "draw 1 card (max 3) when your opponent special summons" this way you only end up with 2 cards on card advantage instead of 20.

What if Maxx c only drew cards if your opponent summoned from the extra deck?
@anarchistauthor5475

sounds like a good idea, only giving half of the draw power for the other player. Personally, I'd make it so that you can only activate it if you have no cards on your field.

I would change Maxx C to where it special summons itself to the field similar to Retaliating C. You would still get draws as long as it remained on the field. So your opponent would be forced to give up their battle phase if they wanted to out the card. I think that would make it way healthier than the lingering effect it currently has.

My change would be something like “ draw 1 card each time your opponent special summons a monster, when you control cards equal to the number of cards you started with the turn this card was activated apply this cards second effect ( each time you draw a card by this cards effect banish 1 card from your hand face down. )
@RockandStoneEnjoyer
3 жыл бұрын
That way you can still get decked out, and if you activated this card when you had 3 in your hand it stays at 3 in your hand if it was when you had 5 in your hand it’ll stay at 5 in your hand since each time you draw a card after the number of cards you had before max C was summoned you’re forced to banish a card face down. You dont go plus off of its effect only card neutral and you could also end up banishing cards face down that you really wouldn’t want to banish. So let’s say you had a card you didn’t really need for your current hand because in order to even make it useful you’d need another certain card for it so you banished it face down but if you do end up drawing that other card you just lost a good combo starter and your hand might’ve actually been better if you hadn’t banished it and waited. But if you were hoping to draw that second card so you decided not to banish the first one in hopes of starting that combo on the next turn you essentially have to banish other useful cards instead and if you don’t draw that second card that you need you might’ve had a better hand if you DID banish it instead. You essentially have to carefully pick and choose what cards you don’t mind losing and since they aren’t being returned to your deck you can’t just use them later from the deck by a card activation that would draw it for you or special summon it for you. You can also activate cards while you’re drawing them if you can in order to not have to banish it but that would require you to have multiple hand traps which even if you do the moment your opponent ends their turn you went from being hand neutral with a very good hand for turn 2 to counter your opponents powerful board to now having one less card than what you started with before max C which sure you negated an effect but it’s still playable around it especially when they’ve set up a good board already. If they did this they’d easily make turn 2 players have better turns since they can now have much better hands to deal with whatever unbreakable board your opponent made turn 1 but they wouldn’t have 20 cards in their hand ready to just insta win against their opponent. Even if the card is still used a lot I think it’d be as allowed as things like pot of extravagance are where sure tons play it and it’s useful but the cost makes it balanced enough to the point where it’s allowable and actually keeps spam metas in check and makes it a lot more fun to go up against turn 1 beefy boards since you’re gonna start off with a very good hand.

Joke or not I found this rather enjoyable and would love to see more excessively in depth card discussions. Oh and in regards to how I would balance Max c. I'd probably go with a trap trick style restriction where you can only activate say... 2 more card effects for the rest of the turn after resolving Max c

This reminds me of a card in MtG named "Consecrated Sphinx." It's got a static effect where, whenever an opponent draws a card, you may draw two cards. Literally every time your opponent draws, you can make double their resource generation for free, while also being in the colour that has the most spell interaction. It's very much like what's described here; you can use your opponent's plays to draw into responses and just overpower with advantage off a single card.

Actual Title: Explaining Maxx "C" and card advanatge. Great and helpful video. Erratta suggestion: After your opp special summons a monster(s) discard Maxx C then apply its eff. So you don't immediately go +1 cuz you can't chain to the activation, you only activate after the summon happens (similar to Chaos Hunter). Your Dragoon combo would result in +1 for Maxx C player instead of +2. Or, if we apply this condition + a discard cost then it would only break even.
