* MissingEpisode: The Pathetic Aesthetic stream for D/D/D has been [[WordOfGod stated by Rata]] to be 'Unsalvageable'. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HslRCBALmZ8 Some clips of it have been recovered]], and in one of them Rata mentions that he forgot to turn on stream archival when he began the stream -- as a result, there is no VOD that he would be able to upload to [=YouTube=].

** In a tweet he would also admit that he regrets his Genex Legacy of the Worthless video, as besides not being too fond of his editing and scripting from that time in general he felt that he didn't give their varied playstyle and ties to various other Duel Terminal archetypes justice. He also regrets completely missing their potential with Machine Duplication which would be used to infamous effect during the War of the Worthless. This would be expanded on "Legacy of the Worthy - Genex" before covering their new support.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The Buster Blader video, as explained by Rata near the start of it, was originally meant to be focused on the legacy support for [[Anime/YuGiOh Yugi's monsters,]] but he eventually decided against it due to the video's nature being too much work for a video that would skim over a variety of topics that he would rather talk about in-depth.

** The Penguin video was originally just going to be an edited playthrough of ''Penga'', but halfway through recording it Rata decided to just cover the entire archetype and relegated the ''Penga'' gameplay to the opening skit.

* CreatorBacklash: Rata felt that "Pot of Greed EXPLAINED!" is an unfunny slog that beats a dead joke into the ground. He also took a [[StealthPun potshot]] at his first video when following up on it for his anniversary. However, in his stream of ''VideoGame/YuGiOhRushDuelDawnOfTheBattleRoyale'' he claims that after rewatching it a few years later, he found it funnier than he did back then (with the only part he disliked being the Illuminati joke at the end, which was included solely because it was a meme at the time).
** The mistake with Worms also led him to disqualify the deck from War of the Worthless entirely. It also seems to have disqualified itself from Legacy of the Worthless as well; for the video is nowhere in the playlist at all! In his stream of the ''Power of Chaos'' games, he clarified his stance, stating that he overdramatized how bad the video was. He affirms that most of the archetype is legitimately awful even though he did gloss over how good their playable cards actually were, and the video was primarily made as a thematically related lead-in to Allies of Justice.
** Rata dislikes a lot of his older Legacy of the Worthless videos for being, in his words, "Simple, uninformed banter at best." In particular, he commented on his Neos video, saying it's "old and not very good" and telling viewers to just watch Archetype Archive instead, and disabled further comments on the video.

** In his ''Duelist of the Roses'' stream, he explains how he considers the Ojama Archetype Archive his worst video for a variety of reasons (most of the jokes being written by Jimbles rather than him, the intro skit being uninspired, his voice having a weird tone, and giving birth to Ojama Lime).

** As for Archetype Archive intro skits, in his ''Dawn of the Battle Royale'' stream Rata stated that his favorite is the one for Red-Eyes, with the Cyberdark skit being a close second for the image of Shape with a gun.

* CreatorsPest:
** [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Toadally_Awesome Toadally Awesome]] is considered this in universe. Rata considers it one of the best Xyz monsters ever printed, but it is so in such an incredibly obnoxious way that any duel where it pops up instantly turns unfun, on top of the Bahamut Shark combo that makes it more accessible than intended. And that's before you factor in the card's ''[[IncrediblyLamePun name]]''.
-->Nobody likes that guy.
** Another in-universe example would be Genex, being the archetype Rata considered the most worthless. [[EnsembleDarkhorse After the War of the Worthless, however, the fans started to think otherwise]].
** The Mecha Phantom Beast video, once it gets to the topic of MPB O-Lion, makes one thing really clear: Rata is really, ''really'' tired of Crystron Halqifibrax.
--->'''Rata:''' Let's be real here for a second, do we really still need this card? I think society has progressed past the need for Halq. I think it's genuinely impressive that they made a card without any negation or disruption that's ''this'' obnoxious, but it's been a while since it stopped being funny, and now it just brings my piss to a boil.
** The Rank 4 additions to the Railway series really get under his skin, Heavy Armored Train Ironwolf in particular [[DrivenToSuicide driving him to put a gun to his head]]. He unceremoniously dismisses both out of hand in the ULTIMATE TRAINS video.
--->'''Rata:''' These two aren't real. They were made by a 9-year-old Lithuanian boy living in an abandoned sawmill, and the gremlins running YGOPRO added them by accident. We can all calm down now.
** Red-Eyes in general are a popular target for mockery due to the perceived abandonment of any sensible archetype design in favor of gimmicks that reference the anime and manga. Ultimately, he's so frustrated by the palpable lack of any thought that Konami puts into the design of new cards that he can only manage to exhaustedly gloss over them in Support Reports.

** In his video on Neos, he laughs trying to read the effect of "Neos Force".
--->'''Rata:''' "...During the End Phase, shuffle this card into the D--" oh, Jesus Christ, ''(laughs)'' alright, alright, this card is proof: they were taking the piss. They played us like a piano and we didn't even realize it. "During the End Phase, shuffle the shitty Equip spell into the deck"... just forget about it!
** He laughs when introducing Ghostrick Specter.
** Rata's unable to keep a straight face as he reads the Yu-Gi-Oh wiki's tips page for Earthbound Immortal Chacu Challhua, which states that you can use it to "stall the opponent while getting strategies together".
** He can't help but crack up when reading "Birdface", comparing it to a schoolyard insult.
