Watching Yu-Gi-Oh! short videos is making the veteran players lose...

After Joey and Atticus were relieved, the short video's content continued.

Red-Daddy YYDS: "Let's start with the in-archetype monster cards. After all, only after understanding the main cards you're running can you understand the operational strategy of Red-Eyes. Let's start with this monster! The Level 1 monster! Black Metal Dragon!"

"Don't look down on Black Metal Dragon just because it's Level 1. Its effect is one of the core cards of the Red-Eyes engine! Effect 1: from the hand, it can be equipped to an in-archetype monster for a 600 ATK boost. Effect 2 is the powerful part: if it's sent from the field to the Graveyard, you can search for a 'Red-Eyes' card from your deck! The key is that it's not a hard once per turn! Do you know what that means?"

The video blogger didn't continue, but every duelist understood the value of this card! That is to say, Black Metal Dragon's second effect could be repeatedly used! This way, the resources would have a terrifyingly targeted and explosive search! The key was, it wasn't just Spells and Traps! Monster card resources could also be searched!

Red-Daddy YYDS: "Then there's this card! Red-Eyes Black Meteor Dragon!"

[Card Name: Red-Eyes Black Meteor Dragon (Level 6)]

[Attribute: DARK]

[Type: Dragon]

[ATK/DEF: 2000/2000]

"You may not understand why you'd run this card. To put it simply, Effect 1: send a Level 5 or higher Normal Monster from your deck to the Graveyard to accumulate resources, then Special Summon it! And its level-modulation effect can be used for Rank 7 Red-Eyes plays! Effect 2: banishing it from the Graveyard can be a delayed way to get Red-Eyes Fusion, and if you draw it, it can also clear space for searching other cards! With these effects, these two are the core cards of the archetype, no problem, right?"

...

The information on the two cards had been explained! Just these two cards had already made many of the old-school duelists show grave expressions. The Red-Eyes deck seemed to have developed far beyond their understanding! Its searching ability! And its ability to set up the Graveyard! Wasn't it a bit too broken? Not to mention Red-Eyes Fusion and Insight! They could also help with Graveyard setup! Combined, it already felt wrong! And this... wasn't over!

...

Red-Daddy YYDS: "In addition, the third card, Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, is also extremely important!"

[Card Name: Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon (Level 10)]

[Attribute: DARK]

[Type: Dragon]

[ATK/DEF: 2800/2400]

"Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon is different from the previous one. This card's first effect also has a built-in Special Summon ability, the difference is that you have to banish one Dragon monster! The second effect is a Main Phase Monster Reborn for a Dragon-type from the Graveyard or hand. Unfortunately, it can't revive itself. Of course, before this card was errata'd..." A sad sigh. "Ah, saying more is just tears. Let's not talk about it. Let's continue with the next card! The Black Stone of Legend!" (Note: The text names a different card, but describes Black Stone)

[Card Name: The Black Stone of Legend (Level 1)]

[Attribute: DARK]

[Type: Dragon]

[ATK/DEF: 0/0]

"This card's role is quite interesting! Its first effect: if an opponent Special Summons a monster, we can also send this card to the Graveyard to Special Summon a 'Red-Eyes' from the deck! In addition, it also has a burn effect, using the ATK of a 'Red-Eyes' monster as the burn amount! So it's not hard to see that this card doesn't have much to do with the in-archetype Fusion and Xyz, right? But think about it, a vanilla Red-Eyes monster's ATK is 2400. After a burn in the late game, what would happen?"

...

DM World

After seeing these Red-Eyes cards, each with their own merits, Yugi couldn't help but look at the short video with a strange expression. These cards seemed to have their own specialized fields! But if you had to be picky, it seemed they couldn't bring a terrifying boost to Red-Eyes! It was just... it felt like it was still missing a little something! Could it be... this was one of the reasons why the build ran other cards? But on second thought, Yugi was relieved. If Dark Magician could run so many non-archetypal cards, what was so strange about Red-Eyes running them?

"Alright!" Joey was very excited after seeing all this! He couldn't hide the smile on his face! After all, just these few Red-Eyes cards he had never seen before were enough to satisfy him! Even if he didn't understand what role these cards could play in a duel.

...

GX World

Facing so many strange Red-Eyes support cards, Atticus Rhodes felt like his brain wasn't enough! Or rather, after watching all this, he still didn't understand what the combo for this Red-Eyes deck was! Setting aside the simple Red-Eyes Fusion play, he really didn't know where the effects of the other cards came into play! How do you repeatedly use Black Metal Dragon's search? How does Black Meteor Dragon combo with Xyz? Can the burn of The Black Stone really pull off the desired plays? Because of these doubts, and because Atticus himself was a passionate and skilled duelist, he was not as happy as Joey. On the contrary, Atticus was getting a little anxious.

"Uh? Brother? You don't look so good," Alexis noticed Atticus's anxious expression. "Are these Red-Eyes support cards too weak?"

"No, sister," Atticus forced a smile in reply. "It's mainly that I still don't understand the operational strategy of Red-Eyes. You could also say that I need some time to understand it."

Hearing this, Alexis's expression turned serious. Just these cards had already exhausted her brother's brain cells? Then if you added the non-archetypal cards later, wouldn't he be even more baffled?!
