Yu-Gi-Oh's Next Great Player: Ryan Yu

Ryan is one of the most brilliant minds on this game. Had to play him THRICE in world championships and i can say that: he never misses anything. One of the greatest of our time. I Would also like to point out that of the 2017 Dragon Duel world championship, all the top4 players are still playing and doing VERY well. Ryan, me, Charley Futch and Eric Topel (who just made top8 in Raleigh) are the most stacked topcut of a dragon duel event of all times and i will defend my point until the end of times. Great video, always good to hear Ryan! 29:00 edit: Ryan is not the only player to do so! Rafael Jose is a brazilian player and went for TCG in 2017, Duel Links in 2018-2019 and Master Duel 2023!

"The Rise of Cristian Urena" sounds like a nice title for a video! Back to back solo champ, 2 time 3v3 champ, and remote duel champ. Man does it all.

Watching Ryan win complex games with control decks is one of the highlights of competitive Yugioh. Great video & I wish him luck at WCS 2024!

Ryan yu is a very polite person. I met him once and said hi and he said hi back to me.

As a young, teen player, trying to get into higher level competative play, Ryan has truly been an inspiration. His rise and his skills are truly everything I aspire to be in my lifetime.

Another great video, thanks for making these. As the guy who does most of the updates on the competitive wiki pages, I'm always happy to see little screenshots make it into these types of videos lol. One thing I wanted to add: At 38:26, you say that he qualified for 2024 Worlds by competing in 2023. I assume you just misspoke there, he qualified by winning the Duelist Cup in December. The only team that qualified directly was Josh's team. Also, Ryan said he's bringing Jesse and Ray again so we could get the rematch 😊

I like how you said “his name was Ryan Yu” as if he goes by like Blake or something now

I did NOT expect to see myself in this video at 20:10 Fun fact: At YCS Niagara Falls 2022 I asked Ryan what he thought about Exosister and he replied, "this deck REALLY sucks" mostly due to that statement, I took it to the next YCS (Minneapolis) without testing or even really reading my cards and carried on the legacy LOL

At 29:07 the information is not 100%. There is also a Brazilian player named Zeeta that went to worlds in 3 different categories. He went to worlds for the TCG in 2017, for Duel Links in 2018 and 2019 and for Master Duel in Team Latam in 2023. Otherwise great video Ryan is the goat such a nice guy

You truly do make the best documentary content in the Yu-Gi-Oh community. Keep up the good work!

My 🐐, one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Truly deserves the world

These videos are insane quality and superb storytelling, keep up the good work!!

I like Ryan. He could have won more YCSes if he played META decks but stuck to his guns and played Rouge. No BS. Just straight skill.

Amazing Video! really enjoyed it, btw 29:00 actually Rafael Rodrigues (Zeeta) has also participated in the world championship in three different divisions, 2017 TCG 2018/2019 DL and 2023 MD

Banger video as always man, keep up the great work!

Hey Garret I once asked you if you could make a video about the one time World Chalice won a YCS in 2018. So I wanted to ask you again since I and a lot of other people would be really interested in knowing what happened at that YCS that freaking World Chalice won the entire thing. And have you already looked into the topic at all in the meantime? Would be nice if you could give me an answer! And please keep up your amazing work!

every video of yours is incredibly good, keep up the good work

Your masterful storytelling is incredible. One of the best channels ever.

Amazing video, truly inspiring. Those players deserve to have their achievements told, and i'm happy you did it with such quality.

im having a great time and im learning a lot with this vid, thanks man
