D.D. Warrior Lady coming in clutch to save the format every time

My choice for this question is D.D. Warrior Lady. Broken asf, outs everything

Chaos angel: doesnt lose to ddwl Also chaos angel: can use dd warrior lady as a tuner

My takeaway from this is that we should make a format that's just Goat, but with all of these cards legal (at one), and we call it Warrior Lady format.

Morganite is the clear victor here; not only is the card advantage literally only rivaled by Supply Squad, you can also normal TWO DDWLs. Broken.

thank you d.d warrior lady for protecting the format from time travelers

Bro the D.D. Warrior Lady animation had me dead.

The fact this entire video became "but can they beat D.D. Warrior Lady?" And that's absolutely fucking hilarious.

Twitter thread idea: Cards that are very strong now, but would do less than nothing if they were in old Yu-Gi-Oh. For example Triple Tactics Talents. While the effect it's a combination of three banned cards, the activation requirement would almost never happen.

The best part about sending an Xyz back in time is how people would probably decide it works. Since the effect mentions detaching materials, they'd know that the materials don't just go to the GY like with a fusion summon, but I don't think they'd come up with the concept of overlaying. I think they would be more likely to decide that the materials become equip cards attached to the Xyz monster.

3:32 first time I've ever heard of Squirrel Format.

D.D. Warrior Lady ran so S:P Little Knight could walk

Now that I'm actually participating in these threads, I know how it feels to post a good answer first and have him read someone else's post of it 💀

Honestly got a huge kick out of seeing every card lose to D.D. Warrior Lady. As a kid I pulled her out of a pack and was enamored with the fact that she was shiny (Super Rare) and also GOOD. She has a really special place in my heart as a nostalgic DM-era card and I love seeing her in so many card arts. I keep hoping that one of her retrains will eventually be good. Rookie Warrior Lady might get a deck one day!

MtG has "dies to doom blade" and Goat Format has "DD Warrior Lady banishes it"

While I doubt Chaos Angel would be a big deal in Goat Format, it would be utterly insane in early Dark Armed Dragon decks, where Armageddon Knight sending Malicious is a 1-card Chaos Angel (Dark Grepher also works if you discard a card).

"Oh you thought MY traps were annoying? Transaction Rollback, now BOTH our traps are annoying"

As much as we can laugh at "[card] can be outed by D.D. Warrior Lady", she is one of my favorite cards in retro games alongside Breaker (World Championship 2006, even later ones like Reverse of Arcadia, especially early on).

What's great is when making a cube, you can do exactly this. E3 has an Edison cube where he uses Ninja Grandmaster Hanzo and the transformations as a way to bump consistency in decks like Gladiator Beasts, Blackwing, and whatever else benefits from dragons/beasts/winged beasts/whatever else the transformations get you. Now, we're breaking a format, yeah the $100 extra deck ninja girl.

MBT is really a quirked up nostalgia critic

I want to see a GOAT tournament where every player is allowed to add one singular newer card into their deck

Shoutout my goat d.d. warrior lady

D.D. Warrior lady is literally the GOAT

Dandylion. I didn't remember wheter Raigeki Break was in the format or not,but it makes Dandy be a mini Scapegoat you can access while destroying one of your opponent's cards and the Tokens threaten a Monarch if not deat with(but then again,Asura Priest exists)

0:07 MBT: Hello, I'm MBT, I Review this children's Card Game, so You don't have to 5:15 D.D. Warrior Lady, being the true GOAT of GOAT

you do understand this is lore of D.D. worrior lady which is so cool to me.

I would've picked Ultimate Conductor Tyranno A book of moon on legs back then would basically be unstoppable

You're like if Farfa and Cimo had a lovechild with their combined personalities and it is as uncanny as it sounds

Now we wait for the eventual inevitable LVK Sub Replay Friday where someone does some jank ass combo and outs a boss monster with DDWL

I actually ran a format like this and one of the sleeper hits was Runick Destruction. An extra MST that also rips power oneoffs out the top of the deck with a near negligible downside in a format as slow as goat was really good

Ice Dragon's Prison would ruin Goat format so hard.

i wanna see a tournament in Goat+1 format now genuinely. standard Goat but you can play exactly one copy of a card released later, similar to a Legend card in Rush Duel

my answer to this was Evenly Matched because I think it'd just be super funny if we convinced players to never over extend setting back row for 10+ years

We need a squirrel format video

This teached me that D.D Warrior Lady should be in every side deck ever

Your frustration with everyone picking fenrir would have been solved if you had said exactly one copy instead of just one card. But still great thread and fenrir still great.

Ojama Lime is clearly the pick.

Surprising lack of Master Peace.

Doom Blade Warrior Lady...

so originally i just said hu-li the jewel mikanko since a non targetable non destroyable monster with the downside that you just need an equip was good but the problem is you dont have any mikanko equips and you only get one copy, if you wanna be able to ruin a format with a single card you have to be able to consistently see that single card meaning the best answer is probably chaos angel

4:22 Kinda surprised you didn't put up the picture of those two guys in suits and fedoras hauling in that tower of an Extra Deck over their shoulders.

Now that we moved onto internet shows for the intros I wonder if we'll get a remix of the old Twitter Thread intro with it being his avatar crapply pasted over his regular head.

The Legendary Exodia Incarnate. Either a giant unaffected beater or just a card that helps people play exodia stun, one of the least fun strategies for both players.

it was frustrating to see so many main deck monsters that were submitted. GOAT has answers to basically any monster. Dark core, D.D warrior Lady, Compulsory evacuation device, solumn judgement (at 3 btw), bottomless trap hole. I had a discussion with the person who submitted eldlich and sure its a strong card but, without any of its archetype playmakers, you would be relying on a flood gate-y type deck where you need to remove your own flood gates to use eldlich. It has a ton of resistance to removal but there are ways to shut it down. I think anyone who submitted extra deck or spell card suggestions had the right idea. Morganite is really good, supply squad is good, time thief redoer is great. I also agree that grass looks greener is not as good as it sounds. Yes, you can ditch more cards but there are not a lot of graveyard effects that do things for you. Like what are you getting? Destiny hero dasher? elemental hero necroshade?? ditch some zombies for book of life? Even then, you could really just facilitate all of the usable graveyard effects with foolish burial instead.

I've never been so early to yet another banger of another Twitter Thread!! Thank you for still doing these, Joseph!! 😁

You dont "play around" dd warrior lady, you lose a mosnter or an important spell/trap. Or you just play the skill drain deck

The DDWL killing everything edit went hard

Sounds like we need retrain of D.D Warrior Lady.

5:20 did not expected the opening of Reincarnated As A Sword to start playing, but I'm not disappointed 😂

The actual answer is Toon Kingdom. Protection for itself and all your toons, toon gemini elf is in the format, and the existence of toon table of contents. My other thoughts for cards: >Eternal soul (card that promotes an already established archetype and makes an already semi consistent game plan more so) > Blue Eyes Jet (same as above but also a recurring 3000 beat stick with no downside >Kasteria Ogre (same special summon capabilities as cyber dragon but with added value of future draw knowledge)

Finally a Twitter thread thank God

For my money I'd have to go with Clock Arc. It's a Marshmallon that also lets you Pendulum Summon 2-7 by just using 2 copies of itself. Make all the kids back in the day's heads explode seeing a monster card that is also a spell, have to wrap their heads around the face up extra deck, and finally you'll get them believe that future Pendulums will eventually have Pendulum Scales of different values.

There are 52 unique Fusion Monsters in GOAT format, none of which are on the Forbidden List. Meaning you can run at maximum 156 cards in your Fusion Deck, giving Eater of Millions 15600 ATK

0:07 i love you dire

A bit tardy to the party but my suggestion might not be as powerful as time tearing or back up squad. But just as terrifying. Dark Factory of More Production, this card alone could rack up so much advantage throughout a game when paired with a staple like Sinister Serpent. Being able to pitch Serp during you opponents turn drawing 1, drawing for turn, adding it during the standby, pitching it again during the standby to draw a second card. Then once again add it back to hand during that same standby would be really nasty. Although this does compete for your discard for something like Tribe or break. It also could be used to avoid targeting effects like thousands eyes, chaos sorc, and BLS. As well as help fuel so chaos piles by clearing any unwanted thunder dragons

Endymion. Its not only a Pendulum but it has so much text on it by the time the enemy is done reading and failing to understand it you can call for time :p

a few years back i ran a progression series discord and we played with post-errata cards and our own banlist. CED was actually really fair at this time with the downside and it was actually BLS that had to get banned. it run in pretty much most decks as a free 3k beater to win games with most of the time, but that honestly was pretty fair most of the time considering it still died to bottomless like most everything else

Squirrel Format sounds super interesting, I might have to give that a look-see!

I want a tournament will all these cards in GOAT format. You should host it.

Archfiend eccentrik, not only is it an exiled force, not only can it be a MST, bit imagine people losing their minds over this. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT GOES FACEUP IN THE FUSION DECK?!"

Extra Deck? Chaos Angel. Good luck dealing with an easy to summon ED monster.

What about the field spell that let's you summon Spirit Message cards as monsters that can't be interacted with and then on top has non-opt "battle protection" ?

D.D. warrior lady is indeed an insane card in those older formats

Dire coming in with the most cursed intro lol

the outro bit should have been the people suggesting Imperial Order or ASF

Honestly it makes me wonder would it be good to try take Goat format as a base and intro small amounts of cards from later eras that fit well and see if you can't make the ultimate retro mod format

I think Red Reboot has the potential to go crazy in GOAT format since it's riddled with trap cards, but while also not having the vulnerabilities that come with being a trap card (being a target for MST or Breaker the Magical Warrior) and just letting you commit to all of your plays without any drawbacks. The card is already good enough to be banned as it stands, imagine the destruction it would enable in a format that has literally no counterplay aside from a lucky Seven Tools of the Bandit. Then you have the cards that would be harder to get out but would do a lot more. My kneejerk reaction to the thread was Ultimate Conductor Tyranno, who would be impossible to climb over due to its huge stats and its ability to just Book of Moon everything at any point (sidestepping DD Warrior Lady) but the smaller pool of Dinosaur monsters hurts it and really limits your ability to get him on the field. Perhaps Scapegoat + DNA Surgery? But then I thought about Master Peace. All you'd need to do is tribute a trap and a monster and you basically win the game outright because as far as I'm aware spell cards are more utility instead of offensive in GOAT so you're better off dodging traps instead. Admittedly I don't know a lot about GOAT though so meh.

I once heard of an old debate regarding Exarion Universe where someone else briefly attempted to add just Effect Veiler into GOAT format to see how that would turnout, and everyone involved didn’t like it, but I don’t think there’s any footage or significantly different decklists regarding this experiment. Now that the format has changed thanks to people learning a lot more about it, let’s just try it again. Best part is that it doesn’t lose to Warrior Lady!

07:00 Well, you could circumvent the destruction effect with idk - The Grass looks greener

They honestly should have called it "Warrior Lady" Format, because that thing was everywhere outing EVERYTHING.

Red Eyes Fusion alone, even without Dragoon, would go pretty hard IMO. Just a free 3.2k beater with Black Skull Dragon

banger intro, dire

Slight influence from me, but Chaos Dragon Levianeer would be funny in GOAT

Me rolling up to the lunch table in 2005 with a copy of Ultimate Conductor Tyranno in my Dino Deck

I was not ready for the nostalgia critic intro 😂😂

A tournament with this exact ruleset would be hilarious

That intro was great

That Nostalgia Critic intro is the best one yet.

Blazing Cartesia would hit hard if printed back then, everyone would stop running poly & just play the monster.

Spell Counters were already a thing so I want to see Endymion (the Pendulum one obviously) in Goat.

Would moon mirror shield, power of the guardians, red reboot, or evenly matched be broken in goat format? I wanted to seem more s/t instead of monsters

I’ve always wanted to link off 4 Sheep tokens for Shuraig. While it doesn’t instantly win you the game, 3k attack and an on summon banish is very powerful.

okay so skull servant and king of the skull servants already exist in goat format So i propose a question! What are the minimum number of cards you need to send back to goat format to make a tier 0 deck running 3x skull servant and 3x king of the skull servants it does not need to be skull servant cards, it can be any card as long as the deck will run 3x copies of each and be tier 0

I love the Yu-Gi-Oh equivalent of giving McDonald’s Sprite to a small Victorian child

2011 Six sam deck would destroy goat format (also imperial iron wall stops warrior lady)

I would say either Knightmare Cerberous or Phoenix would be good picks, as the on demand removal would be insane.

I would add Black Fang Magician, without the Pendulum rules, it goes to the graveyard everytime it dies, at which point it can immediately bring itself back from the grave endlessly (yes, it loses to D.D. Warrior Lady)

I saw one or two guys say DPE. You know, the fusion card that you can’t summon because its materials don’t exist yet? What’s the ruling on declaring card names btw? I’m not super familiar with GOAT but if there are cards which can make their names treated as others, can they be made into cards which don’t exist?

What i got out of this video is that we need a D.D. Warrior Lady Archetype to save modern Yu-gi-oh

This is making me think I should be playing d.d warrior lady in every deck

Before watching, Starving Venom Fusion Dragon (he's generic and pretty big, also can steal effects of Chaos monsters). After watching, 5-headed Link Dragon and Eater of Millions are great choices

Time tearing morganite would go hard

Made it into an MBT video. Neat

I for one will now be maining DD warrior lady forever For real, read daimax's article about how pankratops clears your fave, the actual lesson is the battle phase is an important board breaker

I should put ddw in my deck next

Of all the things I thought I'd see today, D.D. Warrior Lady in the opening for Reincarnated as a Sword was not one of them.

Personally, as a Chaos player, it'd be a chaos monster of some sort I choose pre errata CED being legal

Metaltron XII The True Dracombatant goes brazy. Theorerically unoutable Towers, just sit on floodgates until you can summon it with all 3 immunities. If it somehow dies, float into Master of Oz for psychic damage and a huge beatstick.

other possible ideas, what single card would improve a past format?
