I must be old but duels are so more enjoyable like this when the game wasn't crazy fast

Damn the Darkness Dragon had 4500 attack and the trap card just said NOPE LOL

This was the first Yu-Gi-Oh game, from the last 10 years or so, that I was actually able to follow 😂

There’s something about Paul calling his opponents duelist that makes me smile, but I don’t know why 😂

21:29 Paul: "Why do I hear protagonist music?"

This match was SO SIMPLE. I miss these days of Yugioh. #YugiBoomer

Back when “destroyed by battle” was actually resolved

I remember when the Extra Deck was called the Fusion Deck. Good times.

It was sooo hard to get our hands on these, but it was more than worth it. Hopefully I got to satisfy my younger self and you guys too!

14:22 Alec out here with the ANIME PLAYS! I see you my boy

That pause before “but what does it do…” as you trail off, absolutely glorious.

so nostalgic... this is the yugioh I know and love. Took a break from the game for years and when I can back pendulums were in their prime. I know the current meta of yugioh is fast and tons of combos but theres something so great about the simplicity of the game back in the day

You didn't have to do this, guys. It probably would have been cheaper to remake the deck with singles but i and I'm sure the rest of your subscribed peeps truly appreciate your dedication to the craft. Let's DUEL!

he finally manages to summon his childhood boss monster and then loses to CEASEFIRE? damn, RIP

Imagine dreaming of summoning that Genesis dude your whole life, and when you finally succeed, you lose immediately because he is an effect monster. I enjoy these duels so much. You guys actually play and actually keep your monsters on the field for more than half a turn.

That's so nostalgic! Having quit the game after the madness that followed after synchros, this was roughly the time I enjoyed the game the most. Thanks for that throwback!

There is something relaxing about old school yu gi oh

me and my sister had exactly these decks! and had many of these duels back in the day haha, still got them knocking around somewhere

I'm having a relatively shitty night, and seeing this pop up on my suggested videos brought a smile to my face. The amount of nostalgia from these decks, the darkness dragon one was my favorite YGO ever as a child growing up. Thank y'all for unlocking a core childhood memory

I love how the boss monsters were basically the sign of them losing.

Critical hit of nostalgia from Team APS over here.

Man I miss when Yugioh was like this.

This brings back memories from playing with the structure decks on the nintendo game

I really dig seeing you guys go head to head with structure decks and seeing this definitely brought back some massive memories. Keep up the great work y'all

Glad to see Alec finally achieve his goal in life.

I legit can't stop watching your videos. I just discovered this channel like the day before yesterday and I'm already hooked. I love the way you guys structure your videos and the different ideas you bring out. It's totally revitalized the Yu-Gi-Oh card game for me and I love how well your dual videos are structured, you make it so easy to follow what's going on the whole time which makes it more engaging consistently throughout

Duels back then were so chill and relaxing, and fun. Great video guys.

16 years ago! 👀 still remember they were at my local target

Definitely need more old structure deck duals!

This is such a nostalgia hit, I got both of these when they first came out, been looking forward to this episode 😄

Dude so glad i found you! Im loving the classic cards being played brings me back!

This specifically takes me back to high school. The first time they started calling it structure and not starter. Absolutely beautiful.

I can't believe how good these decks were... now I realized I had no excuse to lose back then.. I just chose to play dumb cool nostalgic cards over the OP ones literally handed to me on a structure deck platter.

I Love that you guys did this! I had / still have the cards from this structure deck back when I used to duel. Plus loved when the game wasn't so fast paced with 200 moves every turn lol.

These videos are amazing. Its fast paced but that makes it so much fun to watch. Subscribed!

Oh man this takes me back, I remember getting Dragon's Roar, still have the Red-Eyes cards and Masked Dragons. Using them now even to make a red-eyes deck, even if Darkness isn't viable.

Yu-Gi-Oh structure decks are the best

Great video right here! I have two brothers and we played Yugioh against each other. These two structure decks were a birthday gift back when they released, and we would duel each other on repeat with these cards (along with the Yugi and Pegasus structure decks). Super nostalgia here

I just watched your video with the sacred beasts vs the dinosaur deck and I like how you show how the different ways to play yughioh with different decks are both fun

Quick note, the type of videos that you guys have made are awesome, just letting you know. Keep up the great work!

I remenber when my father bouth these and we played together so nostalgic.

These were the structure decks that got me into Yu-Gi-Oh! Awesome to see a duel with them. Def a blast from the past

This video hits me right in the feels and nostalgia, I remembered buy the Dragon's Structure Deck and protect it so much and specialized it on Wind Type Dragons, with their metalized card sleeves and being one of the first official Yu-Gi-Oh cards.

My favored red eyes darkness dragon when I was a kid.

I've always found Master Kyonshee to be super cool.

These duels take me to the old times. Thank you for your hard work and time that you spent on this video.

Been really enjoying these videos. I love the vibe. Such nice cards.

Love seeing the nostalgia guys thank you very much

9:02 *"Ill activate MY Pot of greed, It lets me draw 2 cards from my deck"* - Smirk

This is awesome! I had the Dragon's Roar structure deck way back in the day as a kid and this was such a perfect throwback for me.

the crazy part is i still have these decks trully was amazing seeing these decks duke it out in yall hands !!!

These old school duels will always make me click. Great content guys 👍

Damn this takes me back

Hey Team, A couple months ago, RANDOMLY, a Team APS video popped up into my suggested videos and you guys made me get back into Yugioh, ironically, these two structure decks were my first EVER, and watching this was a true throwback, keep up with the entertaining videos! Love the work and all of the laughs and exciting content! I look forward to seeing more! Dragon’s Roar for the win.

Thank you for this nostalgia video. This deck is special to me too. Takes me back to a simpler time. These decks were right before i dropped off Yu-Gi-Oh. I had the dragon deck, and because my bro and I split the cards we owned at this time (He took the "Warrior"side of our deck, and I took the traps/spells and whatever monsters I could), I took the creature base and added amazing traps and spells to it, replacing the more situational ones, and adding stronger dragons. It's now a pimped up version of the dragon starter, still with masked dragon and Red eyes as the creature base. Aaaaannnddddd that was my last deck. I only have a speed duel box for when I have company and this one deck as what's left of my flimsy collection; a relic of my childhood and when I could keep up with the game. Now I'm onto Magic...out of the frying pan, into the fire, i guess.

Man that Zombie deck was legit back in the day, it pissed alot of opponents off.

The nostalgia be hitting hard with these decks.

I’m also one of the many that loved watching this old-school YuGiOh. I subscribed because of this video, and the “tournament ready decks” video. I’ll enjoy any of these videos you upload in the future. Thank you for this content!

Oh man, each of these videos is an awesome blast from the past

This reminds me of the structure deck duels in the game Yu-Gi-Oh World Championships 2008

I loved the Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon. It was always fun to summon.

This was amazing guys. I loved it this was really fun back and forth. Definitely would love to see more of these

I love these videos, really relaxing and its cool to see structure decks go head to head

Dragon's roar was my favorite because it introduce red-eyes darkness dragon

These decks take me back... i remember my dad got me both for having good grades 😂😭

Oh man that takes me back. I remember going up town at lunch during my college years and buying these decks. I still have many copies of Vampire Genesis and a complete Japanese version of Dragons Roar.

These fun videos are getting me back into the game it's nice seeing old school decks and playstyles after getting crushed so hard by newer metas

That set heavy storm gave me real flashbacks. That’s how u hit everybody with the sauce

When Yu-Gi-Oh was a much more enjoyable game.

These duels remind me of when I first started playing. My brother and me would duel in these back and forth games and it was so fun. I still my first card Bull Blader, he may not be anything special but I love him.

This is truly documenting history. I remember playing against these decks back when I was a kid. The only cards I ever bought were the starter deck Kaiba and occasional booster packs from the ice cream truck. When these things came out my deck was nowhere near capable of taking care of these. I lost duel after duel. When the next structure decks came out I bought the water one. Such fun times. Thank you for allowing a lot of us to relive some of our childhood moments again

back when yugioh was ACTUALLY fun

these decks bring back childhood memories

Just found out about you guys, love these videos, I like the way you guys cut the screen for duels, it looks really smooth and it’s nice to see you guys be wild n goofin while tryna make these structure decks work Already watched some older vids, can’t wait for more though!

2005- I was 33. Stuff like this really reminds me I am old. Great video guys. I really enjoyed it

Kinda pulling for Alec here, I actually had that Structure deck in high school lmao

Glad to see armed dragons making a comeback years later

I got so pumped up when I saw the thumbnail!!!, Zombie madness was my very first deck. A friend and I bought this decks back in 2005 I got the zombie madness and he got the Dragons Roar deck. Little we knew the zombie deck was so frekinng boosted. Fun fact: Red-eyes Darkness dragon becomes a zombie in the next zombie deck and I think is a clear reference to how uneven this 2 decks are.

these were the structures decks my brother and I first bought when we got into yugioh as kids it was really fun and nostalgic to watch this! Good video as always APS :)

Sometimes I miss the old school yugioh. It was so much more simpler

Pot, heavy, hole, duo was like the God draw back when those came out

I remember the Vampire Genesis deck. I don't think i still have it, but had it lurking around my old collection! Between the Genesis deck and Jinzo tin

Insane, I vividly remember buying both of these decks back in day. Crazy seeing them again

Older decks are so much better and straight to the point so you guys need to battle with these more often. I can't stand watching people play with the new decks and having to read the walls of text, playing half their deck in one turn and shuffling for 5 hours because of it.

I was in the womb when these decks were meta

So much nostalgia with these decks. I remember getting the deluxe pack that came with both the decks, armed dragon lvl 7, and rope of life.

Love this vid! My first deck was Dragon's Roar and this brings me so much memories! Nice classic match!

Pot of greed lol “What does it do? 😂😂

back when yu gi oh was actually fun and games lasted

Man this makes me want to dig around in my garage to see what kinds of old school Yu-Gi-Oh craziness is hidden there. I never learned how to play but I was like 6 or 7 when LOB came out and the wave of nostalgia seeing those Structure Deck boxes brings me back dudes. Earned my sub for sure

I had these cards sleeved up since I first got them, and I didn't really break up the deck until recently to put everything in binders lol. Such a nostalgia trip

I’m a simple duelist. I see a zombie video and I click

Bros thank yall so much i havent seen those decks since Jr high so cool to see them played again

Several of these cards from the dragon's roar structure deck bring back vague and nostalgic memories of when I was in elementary school in the 2005-2006 era. Now at 24 almost 25 I look back at seeing those as a reminder to wanting to obtain the dragon's roar structure deck now!

This is insane. I was looking for a video like this yesterday on your channel and you must've uploaded like an hour after. LOL

I love this! Thank you guys for doing the Nostalgic duels. 🤘🏻

lots of memories with these decks since I had both structure decks. But looking at these decks compared to the structure decks of today they for some reason feel a lot more playable out of the box.

Awesome video great seeing you guys doing with these deck definitely a throwback to Middle School

Man the nostalgia. I remember getting these at target as a kid. Time flies man.
