Just watch whenever Yuya first sets the pendulum scale at any time. He explains it perfectly

[BigFry]

"This is a Pendulum Monster. It might look scary, but in actual fact, it's just like any other card" except it's almost totally different and plays with different rules.

About 11 minutes ago, I was an idiot when it came to pendulum monsters. Now I am still an idiot, but less than an idiot I was 11 minutes ago. Excellent video! I learned so much, thank you

Sam is the perfect gamer role model for Yu-Gi-Oh. He’s helped me understand all the recent additions to the game since I stopped playing years ago.

Sam forgot to mention that if you have 2 scales have a difference of 1 (example: scales 2&3), you can't pendulum summon with that combination either

[Legoluke]

When pendulums first came out the fact that both scales on them were the same number had me thinking eventually some were to be released that changed their scale depending on what side you put them on.

As someone who stopped playing Yugioh during the synchro era you have no idea how much I appreciated this video since I finally understood how this mechanic works

[SpecsTube]

Yuya:
I’ll use stargazer magician and timegazer magician to set the pendulum scale - I’m taking control of this duel starting now
Now I’m allowed to summon as many monsters from levels 2 - 7 all at the same time - swing far pendulum, carve the arc of victory - my monsters are ready to swing into action!!!

[martingamer]

Yuya generating a new summoning mechanic on the spot has to be one of the biggest ass-pulls in all of Yugioh, up there with Yami Yugi assembling Exodia.

Minor correction on the Pendulum Xyz thing: They'll have an effect that specifies that they can be Pendulum Summoned if the scales are appropriate. Otherwise, they can't be Pendulum Summoned at all.

5:15 TGS: "Pendulum monsters come in a few different flavors..."
Me: "Okay..."
TGS: "Normal and Effect..."
Me: "Sounds good so far..."
TGS: "... as well as Fusion, Synchro and XYZ Pendulums."
Me: "Oh, what fresh hell is this?!"

[ChaceBonanno]

I stopped playing YuGiOh when Pendulum monsters were introduced because I felt like they were over complicated and changed the game too much, but this video made me finally understand them and realize how amazing they are.

[capnshield]

Just coming back to the game, this is exactly what I needed! Fell off shortly after synchro and got a handle on the xyz and link types, but this was always a headache. Thanks man

[NaviVGC]

That was the most comprehensible guide here on YouTube. Updated, clear, it's not rushed with a slow commentary that actually allow you to understand and some good editing. Truly a fine work!

[MysticEle]

Well done as always. While Pendulums look daunting, they're really not too bad to pick up, it just takes some practice.
Also, I'll be down to see videos for each extra deck type, as having them is beneficial to those looking to learn, or get back into the game, and those that could use a quick refresher

[redwardranger]

I'm glad they didn't forgot about this summon mechanic in the Battle of Chaos. Sure I'd prefer a DDD Synchro, but I'm still glad about what I can add to my deck nonetheless

[nefilim]

Just a little thing that's worth mentioning, since the exemples that people tend to use to describe a pendulum summon can cause some confusion: you CAN pendulum summon multiple monsters with the same level, some exemples makes it look like they need to be all different levels but that's not the case.

[akirie]

Please do the D/D/D archetype. I love hearing your voice explain yugioh stuff especially when it comes to lore

[joemamma]

i coulda sworn ive watched this some time ago cause i already learnt how to pendulum summon cause you taught me

[Kinkgobernable]

Fun fact you may not know, but cards with Macro Cosmos like effects *do* affect Pendulum Monsters and will be banished instead of going to the Extra Deck face up

Found this out the other day by playing Dark Law against a pend deck only to see all the monster used for a link summon be banished instead of going to the extra deck
