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

Crazy how the best Red-Eyes Skill is the one that makes you not have to use "Red-Eyes Fusion" anymore.
A deck in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links consisting of cards from the "Red-Eyes" archetype. An Extra Deck in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links for a "Red-Eyes" deck.

The Red-Eye Rush Duel deck is honestly so garbage, but I will play and pay for it regardless, because I am blinded by how cool Red-Eyes is.
A game of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links, where the turn player has 3x copies of "Black Skull Dragon" on the field, a Fusion monster with 3200 ATK and no effect.

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

Clearly my subconscious just made a hard read.

I love getting Maxx "C" dropped on me after a full combo.
An image from Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, where the opposing player has a full board with Baronne De Fleur, Red-Eyes Flare Metal Dragon, Mist Valley Apex Avian and a set Starlight Road. After passing their turn, the opposing player immediately activates Maxx "C".

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.

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?!)

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.

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

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

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.

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?

😭😭😭
An image of a video being posted on Bluesky. There is an option to write alt text for videos, despite the fact they apparently don't show up on the posts themselves?

60-card pile opening hand.
A game of Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, where the starting player has drawn 3 copies of the same card in their opening hand despite playing a 60-card deck.

I think I found the most optimal Rock Howard combo.

Since I'm both a Dragon Ball and Yu-Gi-Oh! fan, I'm illiterate and therefore equipped the wrong skill on my deck.

And it somehow became the reason I won this duel.

I wish life was more like Yu-Gi-Oh! or Street Fighter.

I wanna go up to a random guy, challenge him to a duel and then we shake hands afterwards.

I wanna tell some dude on the road to block my overhead and then throw him, followed by jumping backwards and spamming Hadoken.
