like obviously there's a million """ethical""" reasons not to do it, but it's also just not a good idea for growth even minimally discerning yt viewers have a sixth sense for sniffing out AI, and some will choose not to click as a result. you can't just drop 10%-ish of viewers
I will never understand why so many yugitubers use ai for thumbnails. Drawing and designing thumbnails is super fun and relaxing for me. Also surely everyone knows that using ai will get you loads of backlash. Not to mention that huge channels can easily afford to pay someone else to do it. So why do people do it?

I have played through all of the best and worst formats in history, and the hand effect cards just seriously irk me to no end. Making assumptions and guessing your opponents hand from their actions is a significant portion of the fun that makes this game unique. Now its gone

So instead I'll thank all of you. Thank you to everyone who's made this community great, to the people who have given me a place to belong. To everyone like me that Alex Cimo inspired. If you seek his monument, look around you.

fuck ai The ygo community has incredible artists who’ve devoted their lives to their craft and create incredible work. I can think of nothing more disrespectful than to use/glaze technology that poisons the world and steals from those with real talent and training.

Hi! It finally happened. This is the best yugioh video I have seen in years. Congratulations to @OfCharacters - this is the absolute greatest piece of Yugioh into video essay content ever. You’re incredible. Everyone subscribe to this person immediately.

A few weeks back I asked if our community had any seminal pieces of "Yu-Gi-Oh! theory," something even remotely comparable to MTG's wealth of historic strategy articles and videos. I came away with basically no examples at all! HOWEVER - there is ONE PERSON who's doing the work:

I'm looking for a recording of a specific YCS feature match that occurred probably around 2018-2019, but I don't completely remember, maybe it was more recent after Engage was unbanned. One of the players is playing Sky Striker, I don't remember what the other player is on.

I know this looks like a flurry of arrows and text blocks, but as soon as you breach the hurdle of understanding this chart, your play improves exponentially.
