I like playing with cardboard that has text on it (Yu-Gi-Oh!) and fighting people on the streets (Street Fighter).

This game is too stressful for me.

Your annoying neighbor. @ricktheawesome.bsky.social · Aug 9

Ok then.

I misinput Tatsu twice and managed to beat a low and a throw.

Clearly my subconscious just made a hard read.

Your annoying neighbor. @ricktheawesome.bsky.social · Jun 29

Despite all of that, I still managed to win.

A neat duel, I guess.

I love getting Maxx "C" dropped on me after a full combo.

After passing their turn, the opposing player immediately activates Maxx "C".

Thank god my opponent did not have a Dimension Shifter.

All my luck has now been used up for this starting hand.

I will never draw into a playable starting hand ever again.

An image from Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, where the turn player's starting hand consists of Swap Frog, Reasoning, Monster Gate, That Grass Looks Greener and Runick Destruction.

The opposing player is playing a 40-card deck.

The turn player is playing a 60-card deck that relies on the Graveyard (GY) and each of these cards are extremely helpful for sending cards to the GY.

Swap Frog can send monsters from the deck to the GY.
Reasoning and Monster Gate can send Spells and Traps to the GY.
That Grass Looks Greener sends cards to the GY if the user's deck is bigger than the opponent's.

I could've also done another Fireball or Hopkick into Tatsu.

Of course, I decided to whiff Solar Plexus Strike into losing Neutral. True combo.

Your annoying neighbor. @ricktheawesome.bsky.social · Jun 28

Imagine having your opponent in a checkmate and still losing somehow. Couldn't be me.

(WHY DIDN'T I JUST RAW DONKEY KICK ON HIS WAKE-UP, GODDAMMIT?!)

What are these V-Rivals smoking???

100 LP left and I managed to win by deck out.

A match in Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, where the turn player is about to go into their Draw Phase without having any cards left in their deck, resulting in a loss.

Meanwhile, the opposing player has 100 Life Points left.

Great timing to get disconnected after a 16 turn duel.

A screenshot of Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, where the turn player is about to win, but their connection is becoming unstable, disconnecting them from the game.

Unchained and Fire King players would surely love to have me as their opponent.

Destructive Daruma Karma Cannon + Elemental Burst

I can't even think of a caption to put for this duel.

Your annoying neighbor. @ricktheawesome.bsky.social · May 3

I'm glad to have the N/R Festival return in some way, because this is peak Yu-Gi-Oh!

Your annoying neighbor. @ricktheawesome.bsky.social · Apr 23

Never thought I'd ever play Galaxy-Eyes.

The best part is that I'm not even running the new Tachyon support, because I'm broke.

Your annoying neighbor. @ricktheawesome.bsky.social · Apr 23

It doesn't matter what deck I play...

I ALWAYS HAVE AN OUT FOR YOU!

I still press buttons after blocking a Normal out of Drive Rush.

No, you should be training your EXOSISTER COMBOS.

Just realized videos on Bluesky don't have alt text…

…so where did all the alt text go that I wrote for my videos and why can I write them at all if they're not gonna show?

😭😭😭

There is an option to write alt text for videos, despite the fact they apparently don't show up on the posts themselves?

At the end of the day, one thing remains constant in this game.

The only Life Point that matters is your very last one.

A game of Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, depicting the player with 57 LP left attacking their opponent for game.

The image may be a bit confusing, since the opponent looks like they have 2749 LP while the game is showing that a monster with 2400 ATK is about to deal the final blow.

However, this is just because the image was taken while the game was still counting down the damage dealt from the attack before.

I also had this close call, with multiple ways I could've lost.

I've put a detailed explanation in the alt text.

I might've been able to still live this turn even without 'Transaction Rollback' due to 'Paleozoic Opabinia'.

Your annoying neighbor. @ricktheawesome.bsky.social · Mar 20

I did learn my lesson in the middle of the same duel though!

Your annoying neighbor. @ricktheawesome.bsky.social · Mar 20

During the same game I also sorta kinda forgot that the 'Send to GY' effect of 'Destructive Daruma Karma Cannon' is a 'then' effect.
