Get the AI Duelist (Hyper-Geo): https://chatgpt.com/g/g-6867e5637eb48... In this unscripted breakdown, I argue that modern power creep still funnels into a simple formula: starters vs. choke points. Most top decks function as one-card combos, so you usually need 2–3 precise interactions to stop them. I walk through the “3-Check Rule” (how early disadvantages stack before your turn), why going second often converts better in today’s meta, and my take that Yu-Gi-Oh! effectively resolves in three turns: T1 sets rules, T2 must break + kill, T3 closes the game. We also talk reading delays (Maxx “C”, Ash), board theory, and building hands that crack, convert, and rebuild. Takeaways Power creep → more ways to start, but wins hinge on hitting the right choke. Plan for 2–3 interactions (Ash/Imperm/board wipes) rather than a fistful of random outs. Going second hands = dismantle + OTK; going first hands = gas + protection. Track win/lose checks (coin flip, interaction density, topdeck quality) before you play a card.
