3-1 at locals this week playing primite odion. I've been super unhappy with the format the last couple months and none of the decks i have access to were clicking with me or uh....performing at all. a friend sold me his odion core for cheap and then Coder, Neil, Chloe, and Momo helped me build.

Really excited for both this and our other planned features around this! Genesys Prog sound cool to anyone?
YGO PROG UPDATE: Genesys
- Added Genesys (and historical Genesys) support to our Deck Builder
- Added Sets: MP25 Tins, MP25, DOOD
We should have some other cool Genesys-related features coming out relatively soon too!

Did another pass here. Removed a few more keywords.
It's VERY overdue but I just did a bit of a Yugioh feed update.
- Got rid of a couple of the remaining false positive key words. Almost all of them were from a couple keywords. (Sorry Maxx Crosby fans)
- Added a couple more blocked words to curb those type of issue a bit more than I already have.

I've gotten so much more done here and everything looks so much better than I ever could have imagined by this time. I think I can have my entire intended feature set ready before Elestrals Clash comes out.
I've been slowly releasing all sorts of features throughout the past few days.
- Pretty in-article Deck and Card Embeds
- EDK File Format Export
- A revamped home page
- Automatic Spirit Calculator in the deck builder

unrelated to the yugioh feed updates yesterday. there was some issue with integers getting converted to bigints that the atproto lexicon did not like so the feed was not ingesting new posts for a bit.

I'm unreasonably excited to switch over to Primite Blue-Eyes next week.
I've been playing Fiendsmith Ryzeal. The Fiendsmith cards are so fun to play with, but the Ryzeal cards are just not.

Hi, no that's not the case. I don't remember the screenshot but I must've posted it in the GF teraleak discord server when I was in there. Was looking to see the stuff and whether or not there was anything worth making a video about.
Really hate that someone took that used a slur repeatedly.

My biggest contribution was this post in response to a dzeef post. Like 500 NR decks, some other memes, but my this was my biggest.

Pretty happy with the results on my latest yugioh feed changes. Only been a few hours, but I haven't seen any overtly NSFW content on the feed since
