    I would appreciate handtrap floodgates way more if they had something like "Damage your opponent takes until the end of your next turn is halved" or something so that waiting them out and ceding first turn advantage (already a huge offering) was viable if you got turnskipped by them instead of your opponent dropping Droll or Shifter and effectively just FTKing you. While playing back into a fully established board with very little life at that point would be rough, it'd feel at lot better to at least have a chance at a comeback rather than the cards being so binary in that they either win you the game on the spot or do basically nothing.

    If the stun resolves, my gun revolves.

    Yugioh and going 1st has outpaced what yugioh can actually sustain
  • @daytch1725
    Gamma in response to shifter is always a F u call to the opponent and they insta scoop in master duel, I wonder if that happened in tcg.
  • @frankieyuen9363
    Shifter is an answer to a problem they created. Decks now have so much gas that after using the card they have a grave effect as well that also pluses you (dlink). To fight something so bs you need something as strong as shifter to stop them. Also from experience people who hate shifter the most seems to be combo players understandably but they weren’t exactly planning to let me play the game either so

    Idk what this is all about. In tbe 1st 2 games shown all I saw was a clear skill issue and the dude didnt draw the out
  • @DaaaarK147
    the problem is not shifter, is that the fucking top meta deck has a stupid spell that can special from gy or banish and, a walking floodgate, and a guy who specials on standby to fuck the normal summon

    I think competitive yugioh suffers most at the lower levels. I've moved over to MD last year, and if there is a game I don't want to play, I can jump out and back in until I do. In TCG, I would have spent more money on a deck, drive to a venue, and then spend 3-4 hours of Swiss against Konami's latest cash grab and I just have to put up with it or leave and waste my time. These decks still exist in Master Duel, but I don't feel like I am handcuffed into playing a series of games I don't want to be in as I would at locals or YCS
  • @SpeedyGz_
    I just want to see how these combos would play out in a tv show, each turn would take 8 episodes even without commercial breaks
  • @Xfighter000
    I dont know if I have more hatred for shifter or calamity lockout, both give me an aneurism on resolution
  • @mr.standespair4720
    Hey man, I love your glasses! If I may ask where did you get them? They fit perfectly to your face, and also your hair is on point as well!
  • Using as example a guy that twit's on ban list that want invoker back and simorgh back, no touch enough in kashtira, and also putting sacred tree back to tree after one banlist, and also having glow-up pulp at fucking 3 when we have naturia beast in the game, makes kinda losing credibility on the argument...
  • @casualtheeduelist
    called by the grave works as well. Does D.D. Crow and Bystials also work for this? Or shifter doens't NEED to be in the graveyard to linger it's effect?
  • @757gamerguy2
    Shifter won’t be hit. It’s getting a reprint in Rarity collection. Konami wouldn’t ban it then just reprint it
  • @jarom1144
    Shifter was definitely abused in thunderdragon on release. Shifter plus solar man going first was full combo. It also didn't care about banishing any of its cards aside from maybe the fusion spell. Nobody really cared though because there was still 3 other decks just as strong as it to complain about. After TOSS format though it did fall off the radar. Shifter can only be abused in decks that can allow it. After Kashtira gets demolished on the banlist, I'm willing to bet it falls off again. People will only complain about it when it's in a tier 1 deck.
  • @spicymemes7458
    4:23 I agree with the banning of Baronne and I'm surprised this isnt talked about more
  • @ItsmisterX
    For me, the nicest and most playable handtrap there is is Droll. Since I mostly play infernoids, I don’t need to draw cards so I’m not that affected. But, D shifter is a fucking ass whooper since I can’t use reasoning, can’t use grass, can’t use decatron or any of my infernoids at all. Because of this, I moved on to tear and kash until MD release snake eyes into the game.
  • @sOiCyMaRk115
    Konami needs to hit shifter to 1 or ban completely. Remember guys even when kash gets hit there is a deck called floowandereeze still going around.
