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

The "one-shot wonder," an absurdly strong card against set monsters, immediately sent shockwaves through the DM world! Yugi Muto and Atem were deep in conversation, forced into silent contemplation. The content of this world was delivering a crushing blow to their reality.

"The other me," Yugi began, "if Blue-Eyes White Dragon is this strong... I wonder about Dark Magician."

Yugi was starting to look forward to seeing Dark Magician. If things went as expected, Dark Magician would also be a game-breaking presence!

"Indeed, Aibo," Atem replied. "But don't be hasty. It seems we have no control over what content is shown. Haven't you noticed? The content changes as if guided by the hand of a god, constantly shifting."

Pharaoh Atem was the first to notice that something was amiss, pointing out the several times the Blue-Eyes video seemed to skip or adjust.

And the situation was exactly as Atem described! After the five or six-minute Blue-Eyes video concluded, the feed began to jump rapidly again!

"Are You Sure You're Playing Blue-Eyes Correctly? Remember These Methods!"

"What Era Are We In? Still Playing Traditional Blue-Eyes?"

"How to Play Ritual Blue-Eyes? Just Watch Me!"

...

The video feed jumped rapidly, seemingly out of control. The algorithm, however, would recommend related videos based on what was watched. These were all titles Seto Kaiba wanted to see! So when he saw them all being skipped, he was dumbfounded! Why was it jumping around like it did at the start? Weren't they going to watch more Blue-Eyes videos?

...

Main World

Yusei Hoshi was getting a bit sleepy after finishing the Blue-Eyes video. This new app didn't seem particularly unique to him. It was just like any other short-video platform, or perhaps a bit like Bilibili.

[Ding! Congratulations on watching a complete video!]

[Congratulations, Host! You have received a 1000 Yuan cash reward.]

[Please click the link in your text messages to bind your payment account.]

A text message notification popped up. The drowsy Yusei was instantly wide awake!

What the hell! I can get paid for this?! Holy crap! Is this for real?

Yusei swallowed hard, his first instinct to dismiss the text as a scam. But driven by some strange impulse, he clicked it anyway. After a few steps, a transfer notification for 1000 Yuan appeared from his bank!

"No way! You're for real?"

"I can really get money for watching a full video on this app?"

"Then why am I even looking for a job? I'll just watch videos!"

"In a few years, I'll buy out Konami and make them print cards for me!"

"Hahahaha! This is awesome!"

"And I'll collect all the Starlight Rares and commemorative cards while I'm at it!"

After a moment of excited muttering, Yusei Hoshi immediately opened the Master Duel app and started watching videos frantically.

The next video was:

"The Correct Way to Play HEROes! I Must Immediately Activate Super Polymerization!"

As the video began, the HERO decklist appeared before the eyes of all the worlds. The first to have a major reaction was, naturally, the GX world.

"What kind of HERO deck is this?"

"Why does it have everything?!"

"No, this is going too far!"

"Elemental HERO? Destiny HERO? Vision HERO? Masked HERO? Evil HERO..."

"So many sub-archetypes mashed together?"

"Can this even have any synergy?" Jaden Yuki immediately began to rant, looking at the hodgepodge of HERO cards in the decklist, which were both familiar and strange.

"Wait, are my Destiny HEROes in there too?" Aster Phoenix chimed in, criticizing the build. "This person has a major problem with their deck construction! As I thought, people who aren't professional duelists have no idea how to build a deck. A deck like this is just going to brick and be completely unplayable!"

With two experts on HEROes speaking this way, the surrounding students and teachers naturally didn't think highly of the deck either. After all, in their understanding, Elemental HEROes should only be played with Elemental HEROes. Destiny HEROes should only be played with Destiny HEROes. How could mixing Elemental and Destiny HEROes possibly have synergy?

...

DM World

Seto Kaiba and the others were still savoring the aftertaste of the Blue-Eyes video. But Joey and the others had already moved on, focusing their full attention on HEROes.

"A HERO deck? What is a 'HERO'?" Joey frowned. After so many tournaments, he had never even heard of an archetype called HERO. It sounded like something out of a fairy tale.

"Joey, 'HERO' is probably a general term," Mai said, offering her opinion. "Look, this archetype has other sub-types within it. Destiny, Elemental, Vision, Masked. You can tell it's a very mixed-up system. I'm guessing it's probably not very strong. It's not like combining my Amazoness and Harpie Lady decks. This one... has too many combinations!"

Mai's first impression was the same as that of Jaden and the others in the GX world. The messy mix of archetypes made her unimpressed.

After hearing this, Joey also calmed down. Perhaps they would know for sure after watching.
