Best products from r/yugioh

Haha, thank you! I hope I can find some good deals like that soon too! What deck did you buy, it sounds great if it pulled you back into Yugioh!!! I find Konami really generous when they make those all SR/UR booster packs!!!

That sounds right man, I think if they get destroyed they go face-up into your extra deck then your next turn you can summon them all back out.

I think soo, not in the near future but eventually, I wanna figure out a new way to arrange my cards haha! Bro same!!! The only thing I throw out is the plastic wrap around structure decks, everything else like booster, cardboard, receipt and the bag the cards came in I keep them! I'm a hoarder though so it's actually really bad in my situation lmao. It sounds though like you already have a good way or sorting them bro!

I felt the manga did Chazz a lot better, I was screaming when he beat Jaden and I was like praying he'd beat Zane too lmao. His dragon deck was so good!!!!! Same, I felt it wasn't needed like having crushes on the character, I guess they just wanted to add humour? Yeah, I remember Bastion's deck!! He had like Gozuki, Mezuki and Shutendoji they're a fun Zombie/Fiend deck!!!

I think MR4 is fun!!! I'm planning to bring an MR3 deck to locals, I'm just finishing my deck up with staples but I don't have many high hopes of winning lmao. That's alright man, you could try duel links and YGOPRO? I mean if locals are toxic here I'll probably stop lol, I prefer collecting and making decks even if I have no one to duel with lol. True, I never saw it that way but from that perspective that makes sense because everyone said GX was like the sequel to DM. Right! I feel Zane barely had any notable losses in GX and its crazy how he never flinched when he took damage like he was desensitized or something lmao. I haven't watched Zexal but Kite plays a Photon deck, right? If you go on Youtube and type in 'Yugioh Character Duels' a lot of channels have duels between anime characters and they use scenes from the anime and it's really cool! Yeah, I'm kinda like that too, that's how found those channels I would be like what if Supreme King Jaden duelled Zarc from Arc-V or like Jack Atlas duelled Aster etc then I came across people who made these duels. What fusion were you planning out?

Oh, true you right!!! That reminds me of D-HERO where Plasma is the ace but you got Dogma who's like this massive powerhouse of a monster lol. Just a question, but how does one play a pure Salamangreat given that their extra deck is pure as well. Because I know of the main or go-to combo where you end the board with Miragestallio, Balelynx, Sanctuary is on the field and then you link into either Sunlight Wolf or Heatleo to end the turn but how exactly do they win? I'm aware that Salamangreats are a popular deck especially at YCS events but do people just utilize their swarming/special summoning abilities to link into monsters quickly like Borreload, Knightmare Unicorn, etc? I'm just confused, I've been playing pure Salamangreats without Pyro Phoenix and I feel their attacks are a bit underwhelming if you get where I'm coming from. For sure, I'll check out Avatar thanks!

I think GX manga will go down as my favourite manga! Though, I haven't read much, just Pokemon and Arc-V. I know they appear in Arc-V, the Battlewasps? I didn't really like them either, it was only one day where I was looking for cards they have these little boxes https://www.amazon.ca/WHITE-800-Count-Piece-Box/dp/B01N5FV8I3, exactly like that and they have cards that are literally 25 cents. So I checked them out since I found Witchraider and surprisingly Stardust Chronicle, so I go in to look and come across all BattleWasp cards!!! Sadly I didn't build it because I spent over my budget that day for cards and I was already in the midst of finishing and building more decks so I passed. I haven't been back in a while but hopefully, they're still there when I want to build them! I know Amazoness was hell in Duel Links. Yeah, I don't quite understand it either it's confusing when it comes to making a Harpie deck and following that restriction... Same!!! I feel when someone summons out Laquari you gotta be ready because Heraklinos is coming too lmao! Man, I hope you can too!!! I bet with all the new support and having their essential cards the Gladiator Beasts are super fun and probably a really good rogue deck option!

Sheesh man, that sounds like one shitty experience. Sorry again bro... Well hearing what they did that sounds really awful, I feel karma will get them because that's fk'd you don't take away things people love... I don't blame you for getting mad, that's just pure disrespect... Well, props to you man, it sounds like you learn to forgive and forget and that's all we really can do with bad events. This is obviously easier said than done, but again it sounds like this was a rough experience and you seem to have looked past it and not dwell which shows that you're the better person! Just from my experience better people get the better outcome, so good for you bro!!! Yeah, Rokkets are overpowered imo, I expect to see a lot of them at locals, to be honest, I'm scared haha!! It's tough, I've been trying to build my deck for locals and I noticed that I'm adding A LOT of cards that don't even belong to the archetype and removing a lot of the pure cards. Bit of an uphill battle because I want to be able to compete but I feel it's going past my ethics/moral code type of thing by running cards all these cards just to win rather than duel with a pure deck lol. Maybe I'll get over it, or if it causes me this much grief I may just stop or just invest into 1 meta deck that isn't pure and just use that at locals.

Hahaha thanks, bro!!! Yeah, Reddit is like my safe zone I guess, I like to come here and chill and talk after a long day! It's been great talking with you too bro!!! thank you!!

if they're learning how to play still, i'd recommend starter deck: codebreaker, as it's the most recent starter deck and a good place to start learning the game. it's pretty well rounded in terms of the cards in it, while still being basic enough so as to not overwhelm new players with walls of text in the card effects. if they already know how to play, then the legendary hero decks is probably a good pickup. it comes with three different theme decks based on characters from the different series, all basically playable right out of the box. if they want packs to open, then the most recent main booster set soul fusion might be a good place to start, though shadows of valhalla, battles of legend: relentless revenge, or legendary collection kaiba are also good sets with lots of cards that fans of the anime would enjoy. (the links for the four booster sets i mentioned are booster boxes, but you can buy individual packs at walmart or whatever as well if you wanted to mix and match. three or four packs of each set for each kid for example, that way they get a more varied pool of cards to play with and collect if they're less worried about actually playing the game.) i'd also recommend getting some card sleeves and a binder so they can learn to protect their cards and keep them organized, since nobody likes damaged cards. playmats aren't strictly required to play the game, but they are recommended as the game has zones that need to be kept track of for a number of reasons, and having the zones visible helps keep things lined up so you know what's going on. the starter deck comes with a paper playmat, which is serviceable enough for a beginner, but there's quite a few playmats available that have zones that are pretty good quality (they're like big mouse pads, basically) though you can get some that have a wide range of designs on them, even custom made ones, though i've yet to have my own made yet so i'm not sure how that works exactly. only other thing you'd really need are a few deck boxes so they can keep their decks separate from the rest of their cards.

All they need is a deck each. Getting the Legendary Hero Decks for one and Legendary Dragon Decks for the other is fine. They'll have 3 each then so it's over the top but it's all good if they want to play with different decks. If you just want to get one each for now you can buy Structure Decks, but make sure they're both recent otherwise one will be a lot better than the other most likely. There are Starter Decks too but I don't recommend those.

Packs are fun, some will be better than other depending on which decks they want to upgrade with the cards. I can't help you there, someone else probably can.

Sleeves and mats are just for protection. The type of mat does kind of matter because the rules of the game have changed over time and sometimes it changes the layout of the board. This is the correct layout, get one which looks a bit like that (look out for the two extra square spaces in the middle, in between the main rows). You can also get the mats as two separate halves with different designs rather than as one huge one. Rubber mats are great, I think the gameboard is just like a solid plastic version.

I find that they work best with KMC Minis (62x89mm), as the perfect fits are 60x87mm. I also use the perfect fits with Konami sleeves which are slightly bigger and they seem to fit nicely. If Bushiroads/Enskys are any bigger than Konamis it'll definitely fit less snug.

Awesome! If you'd like a recommendation, there's a nice cheap one on Amazon that should also be pretty good quality:

https://www.amazon.com/Personalized-Custom-Playmat-STITCHED-Tictaktoys/dp/B01J0CTFHM/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=Custom+playmat&qid=1574691434&sr=8-4

I haven't bought one myself from this seller, but I'm planning to soon with a design I'm working on right now. The reviews are very positive, and they include reinforced stitched edges/borders, which is really nice.

The activation requirement doesn't count against Roar because drawing either card when you can't meet Roar's activation requirement loses you the game regardless. I already said this. Hard drawing Roar has several engine bonuses, any one of which puts it over the top compared to Judgment: it gives you recursion through Sunlight Wolf, it gives you recursion through Falco, it gives you recursion through its own grave effect, and effect negation is a superior effect to summon negation. Where are you not seeing the engine bonus? In addition, a second Roar provides redundancy with Desires that Judgment can't provide. I already acknowledged that Judgment does one other thing than Roar (negates Denko). As I've already said, this application is not worth the sacrifice in synergy and redundancy, nor is it worth using one of 15 precious slots on a matchup that is already favorable for you when you go first.

All of this is competitive Yugioh 101. You say you don't think you need more experience, yet you've all but stated that you don't know what Sunlight Wolf, Falco, or Roar's text say. At this point, I can't tell if you're a beginner or you've just dug your heels that deeply into motivated reasoning. If it's the former, you literally need to read the cards in your deck and play more Yugioh. If it's the latter, then you aren't going to improve at this game by arguing to be right; the minute you decide your goal is to win the argument rather than arrive at the truth is the moment you give up on self progress. This is really basic stuff. If you don't get it yet, then just accept it and practice. Do open-hand testing where you hard draw Roar vs Judgment going first and second in both openings and late game. Hell, buy the book. I'm seeing nothing but classic Dunning-Kruger here. If your goal is to get good, then recognize that's what's going on.

Hopefully not just parroting the other comments in the thread.

Not having a mat isn't the worst thing in the world, but I'd definitely suggest getting one soon. Tables aren't always the best surfaces to play on and it's always better to get some extra protection, plus cards are easier to play with on a smoother surface.

As for purchasing a playmat:

The cheapest one I know of that's officially yugioh (That's full size) is the one that comes out of the Noble Knights box, which you can purchase here: https://www.amazon.com/Konami-YuGiOh-Noble-Knights-Round/dp/B00Q7BVN20 . A decent amount of people will have these mats, but it's whatever.

Legendary Collection Kaiba mats are a thing, but they're cardboard and awkward, plus they're more prone to irrepairable damage because of their cardboardness. Rubber isn't really going to tear or get cracks.

What you can also do is check out mats for other games. As long as they don't have zones, mats can be used for any game. I know one of my locals is more of a Magic shop than a Yu-Gi-Oh shop, so they have LOTS of Magic mats for cheap, but they're literally the exact same thing as yugioh mats (just themed with Magic artwork)

Yo, I've pretty much went through a similar situation. I personally got the Ultra-Pro Pro-Tower, but there's probably better ones as I hadn't explored my options that much when I got it, along with the fact that I was new to everything. A few weeks later though, I wound up getting a lot more into collecting cards than I'd anticipated, which led me to getting binders. So ya, if you're sure you aren't going to get more than 130 cards or so, you might have to get another deck box for the few extra cards. Personally, I'd recommend getting something cheap since it would only contain about ~30 cards.

Also, to expand on what u/chimaeraUndying said, this would be the inner sleeve, and this would be the outer sleeve (Note the dimensions, and the fact that a yugioh card is 59mm by 86mm).

Are the sleeves you're referring too these KMC perfect fits? - https://www.amazon.com/Perfect-Barrier-Sleeves-Piece-Clear/dp/B0007N7PB2

I always used these for my binder as double sleeves and I love them, but I find it kinda hard to shuffle with them sometimes and they kind of slide off PC white easily as well.

Is this the deck box you’re talking about?
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FRIE76I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_sEMwCb3AWSCAQ

Also. I know double sleeves aren’t legal. But I don’t really plan to play in tournaments. If you are gonna play on a competitive level then it’s a little odd that you ask to how to clean sleeves. Just spend a few dollars on new sleeves man.

If cost is such an issue I recommend these. They’re cheap and sturdy. And they aren’t matted in the front so you’ll see the holos.

Ultra Pro Card Sleeves, Black, 180 Count https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E9E19DA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_nJMwCbCZYNJ3V

Ultra Pro Satin Towers are pretty good. Reasonably fit 40 main, 15 double sleeved extra, 15 side, and another 40 card deck.

I've been using it for a while and it's held through being tossed around in my trunk.

Hello. I'm not an active player of the card game and never was (except some older videogame titles), but I recently stumbled upon the Legendary Decks II box and bought it because of nostalgia.

After researching for some time which are the best protective sleeves, I bought the Standard Clear ones from Dragon Shield. Well, needless to say: it was the wrong size. After further research, it seems that the Dragon Shield Minis would be the right choice.

My question: How do the Minis compare from the feel/look to the Standard ones? I like the Standard ones a lot. And I know what many want to say: "Go with KMC or go homu." Sadly, I live in a part of Europe where KMC Hyper Mat Minis cost 70% more, so they're not an option.

Have you already bought the Legendary Hero Decks, it comes with a Hero Deck. It's $24 here.

Honestly I'm still surprised the US version is this expensive. The European version (by MangaUK, but with the same dub) you can find anywhere between 40-60$. Heck, even the original listed price of the set is €83,50, which is only a fraction of the US's 229.64$.

I mean, this is the UK amazon version: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Yu-Gi-Oh-Season-1-5-Complete-Collection/dp/B07GJ1GKXD/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=yu-gi-oh+dvd&qid=1574791464&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&sr=8-1

I know I am super late but since I am mostly on a budget when it comes to buying my cards and accessories I go with these UltaPro Sleeves. They are not as high quality as Dragon Shield but they are still very good matte sleeves. I use them for all my decks and side decks.

Hello! Sorry if this is not the right place for this. But I was wondering if anyone new of a playmat that is all black, two player, and has the link format printed on it. Any solid color would be appreciated also. Thanks for any help!

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XY6J4H3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_XaVTzbHJ4PXFW
Somthing like this but all black.

You could play hero with buying 3 these sets and maybe add some other stuff

thanks for the response. This is what most of you guys are refering to? http://www.amazon.com/YuGiOh-Premium-Infinite-Display-Boxes/dp/B01BE5BVRA/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1458222521&sr=8-2&keywords=yu+gi+oh+gold

Can I have any problems with this? I heard about weighed packs or like packs that were opened already. If I open those packs what cards should i be excited for to see pop up?

This my box. I really like it. Holds sleeved deck + extra + side. All double sleeved. Or holds 2 decks, single sleeved with extra. The side might fit depending on sleeve size. And the magnetic clasp hasnt failed me yet, and i just toss it into my bag everyday.

The Noble Knight one is like $5

get the monster double deck boxes
https://www.amazon.com/Monster-Protectors-Trading-Self-locking-Magnetic/dp/B005VL3H08
i use them and their great because the little compartments pop out!

I bought this gold set just for the sake of buying it. Anyone have an idea of wether it'll be a good pull for a dragon or dark paladin deck? Sorry, I regularly just play my brother and get cards as a hobby...

I just bought this one off of Amazon. It's really nice--sort of like a mousepad sort of material. I play with my boyfriend so we just got the two-player mat rather than getting two individual ones.

Not exactly what you're asking for, but I like the simplistic design

Perfect Barrier Mini Card Sleeves (100 sleeves), 60mm x 87mm https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007B6G2KS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_k6hTAbWN97HQQ

I should have this copy already since I answer this question every single time:

Double sleeves:

Yugioh size sleeves

Dragon shield clear

Triple sleeves:

latcg clear sleeves

Waifu/standard size sleeves

KMC/other brand character guard oversleeves

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01J0CTFHM If you go to additional sellers it has an option to buy from MariasToys or something like that for just $14. That's who I purchased from.

I see listings for it up on some card sites as well as Amazon, but I'm waiting for it to pop up on walmart to preorder. It's being released on November 8th.
