And this is exactly the kind of stuff I loved to see. This level of Yu-Gi-Oh! with nice synergies and simple back and forth seems so much more interesting than the hyper-combo mess I have seen lately. Casual play with friends is the best part of any game and you two are fun to watch! I do gotta say: PLEASE slow down the closeups of all the cards! I know almost NONE of the cards and had to split-second pause to even ATTEMPT to read them. Maybe a side display to keep the most recent card? The animations and layouts are nice, but this was a real annoyance. Good video otherwise! Keep it up, you have a new interested subscriber.

And whoever takes damage has to eat a random beanboozled bean (no looking a flavors prior to the match, only during and while eating) (just make a hole in the box big enough for only one to come out at once and whatever comes out is whatever is eaten, can shake it before but gotta cover the hole).
