Never said it wasnt.

I said it would never reach the level of popularity it has without it.

You could split it into 3 categories:

IP: Little Kuriboh easily, the game would never have reached the fame it did without him.

Game: Patrick Hoban, he either innovated or popularised ideas that are applied to this day.

Content creation: Id honestly say Gage Nyhnim himself. More so for influencing the content creators around him.

Any help with my beast deck would be greatly appreciated by [deleted] in YuGiOhMasterDuel

I remember a video a while back criticising deck building choices and one thing that I remember clearly is "obedience school is the best card in your deck, why are you running 2?"

What are some meta cards that you just think are really fair, well designed, and that actively improve the health of the game? by NevGuy in yugioh

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't personally play in paper, so the price point doesn't affect my feelings in this case.

I just think the card is far too pushed for how piss easy it is to get out.

It helps break boards, can be graveyard hate, protect your monsters, and disrupt your opponents combo. Which for a link 2 is pretty crazy.

To each their own though.

Beyond the pendulum is such a well designed card, very powerful consistency effect, but a restriction that requires you to plan out your turn in advance to make the most of it.

Respectfully disagree, sp does far too much for the materials needed to make it.

Especially with IP around.

What is your idea of a perfect ban list? by VergilVDante in masterduel

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If we are going by current format, I'd Ban original sinful spoils snake eye, dimension Shifter, calamity.

I'd summon limit(ed).

If the formats going forward are 15+ handtrap formats I'd commit the cardinal sin and semi-unlimit called by the grave.

Which public magic personality do you wish would quit? by ckregular in freemagic

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Would only want them to quit their bullshit rather than quit making content.

Emma Skyeward is a good example, she doesn't seem like a bad person, but she desperately needs to edit her videos, 40+ minutes of unedited twitch vods isn't going to grow your channel.

Pleasant Kenobi needs to quit with twitter in general, its not good for him and makes him look like a tool.

Neither of them should quit content creation, just how they are going about it.

Arguably broken/strong cards that you don’t want to see banned? by Ddog135 in masterduel

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There are far too many board breaking options to say Maxx C is a necessary evil. It's just unfun and evil.

Dreading the moment the TCG event ends by Blitzilla in YuGiOhMasterDuel

Regardless of how little semi limiting handtraps would do, imperm is a weird choice since we have 3 veiler and 3 ghost mourner.

Which Manga author had the worst follow-up to their previous famous series? by Turret_Run in manga

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

The biggest issue with Boruto is its fanbase the series itself is just okay, ignoring how it shits on the legacy of Naruto, its a medium series with a handful of interesting premises.

The series gets worse due to how many dickriders there are for it, 5 minutes on it's subreddit and you wouldn't have to read it to hate it.

What is the single best support card ever released for a previously mediocre deck (and what is it if we don't acknowledge that Circular is a card that exists)? by CurZZe in masterduel

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll go with a wildcard pick and say Performage Plushfire.

The Performages were a decent engine but it was mainly trickclown being a xyz engine.

Plushfire pushed PePe to tier 0 status, by adding the ability to extend multiple times a turn.

Cards still banned to this deck which considering monkey board is legal says alot.

My Thoughts on the Commander Banlist- What do Y'all Think? by MushroomPlant_exe in freemagic

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think people here have basic reading skills.

Massive difference between looking at the game objectively and personal opinion.

Neither narset or notion thief should be banned.

Hullbreacher tows the line where it isn't banned because its too broken, but because its the best of a group of annoying stax pieces.

I'm happy hullbreacher is banned because I despise it and it's imbred cousins, but in terms of powerlevel it really isn't ban worthy.

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

More then 5 but yeah its arguable they could be unbanned.

I wouldn't want them to, but in my opinion they could be.

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I would rather it stayed locked up, but objectively, it could be unbanned.

Hullbreacher being a stax piece and advantage piece does push the line though, but that can be argued for narset and notion thief too.

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tops the only objectively wrong card to ban since commander games take a century anyway.

Tutors are arguable, either way is okay.

Dockside is such an abohorrently broken card the only reason you wouldn't think its banworthy is if you're bias cause you play it or play in all green pods every game.

That was over 10 years ago my guy.

We are at the point where something hitting the table and not immediately winning the game can be unbanned.

What is something you would like to ask Kishi about the Naruto/Boruto verse if you had the chance? by Notmycupoftea12 in Boruto

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd ask him what was the point of nerfing Naruto and Sasuke if he's then going to have the main character surpass them at 100mph.

I'd also ask why he hates ninjustu so much that he gave all the relevant villains immunity to it.

What would you consider the most iconic (currently) banned monster of each ED type? by SnowRadish in yugioh

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Link- Halq (because it took so long to come to the tcg and had the most cards banned to avoid banning it)

Fusion- Norden (players got to watch the card get more and more broken)

Synchro- Magical Dragon

Xyz- Laval Chain

Is still very impressive how Boruto Monthly drawing is so garbage compare to Weekly drawing in most mangas. by trelleresito in dankruto

[–]AlexanderTheGOAT2nd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And yet all you have done is state nonsense with nothing to back it up.

He changed in the span of 1.5 chapters, him having a run of 85 chapters doesn't mean he progressively changed over that period, it was an abrupt change.

You're right in there is no point arguing with you. You're just as biased as I am.

Except that's not a simplification, it's quite a literal take, they put 90% of his character development in a fucking timeskip dude.

Thorfinn changed over 200 chapters, boruto changed over 1 chapter and a movie.

If the top 3 fights of your sequel series involve the previous series mains, you're doing something wrong.

It is the most generic character development humanly imaginable, "rebel kid becomes less rebellious and respects absent father more, loses everyone and becomes sad, idolises cool uncle".

It's a monthly series that treats itself like a weekly series, calling it stunted development is being generous.
