** His coverage of Cyberdark during the 2011 Support Report roundup saw him admitting he doesn't like when legacy support for a deck just involves giving them a boss monster that's unaffected by card effects or an in-archetype floodgate, as it cheapens the deck's playstyle. In general, he prefers when legacy support works to resolve major issues with the original cards or refine them in a "Don't fix what isn't broken" mindset as opposed to forcing a new playstyle.

** He's taken several potshots at ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'' over the detrimental effects it usually has on the franchise as a whole, like how several of its 'jokes' often end up pandering to the [[Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters]] fans who are unfamiliar with the card game, often with [[ShallowParody little research done to the future series it's knocking at]].[[note]]In particular, he took offense to the 'What does the (insert letter or number here) in (insert future Yu-Gi-Oh series here) stand for? Don't watch it!' RunningGag the series likes to pull, thanks to being nothing more than a thinly veiled TakeThat that most watchers will [[PoesLaw take at complete face value]].[[/note]] Despite this, him and Creator/LittleKuriboh are on fairly good terms in real life, and he fully admits that ''[[Anime/YugiohBondsBeyondTime Bonds Beyond Time]]'' ''Abridged'' is better than the real movie and would recommend new fans just watch the Abridged version instead.

* "Legacy of the Worthless", Rata's original review series covering card archetypes where he went over what he viewed as [[LowTierLetdown some of the worst decks in the game's history at the time]]. Some time later he hosted the "War of the Worthless" tournament, where duelists using all the archetypes reviewed in "Legacy of the Worthless" fought it out.

[[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC13UOHk5D9S1cqWkYf8LTmQ Rank10YGO]] is a Website/YouTube channel that focuses on ''TabletopGame/YuGiOh'' content, run by a Montenegrin (Montenegrin Serb, as seen by the TrrrillingRrrs) player Ratamakafon, or Rata for short. It is known in the community for its acerbic and humorous style, analysis of unrecognized parts of the game, and focus on entertainment and editing. The channel is particularly notable for its "Legacy of the Worthless" and "Archetype Archive" series, which focus on reviewing the various archetypes in the game, specializing in either [[LowTierLetdown extremely bad ones]] (in the former case) or interesting and obscure ones (in the latter case), while "Support Report" is an annual end-of-year series of videos that quickly covers new support cards for archetypes that were already reviewed in the former two series. The channel hosted the "War of the Worthless" tournament, where duelists using all the archetypes reviewed in "Legacy of the Worthless" fought it out.

** Rata makes no secret of that he doesn't like the Blackwing and Red-Eyes archetypes, finding the former over-marketed and despising its anime user, while he finds the latter pathetic due to years of support leading to a deck being tugged in a thousand different ways and how most of its support is just cheap anime callbacks. The 2022 Support Reports showed this off notably, with Rata skipping over the support Black-Winged Dragon got outside of a line acknowledging it, and spending several minutes lambasting Red-Eyes Soul.

** Kahyoreigetsu, a card representing and supporting the four "Bracelet Girls" of ''Anime/YuGiOhArcV'', turns out to have an effect that lets you, if the card is destroyed, search Fusion Parasite (a creature used to [[BrainwashedAndCrazy turn said girls into mindless evil drones for a good chunk of the show]]). Rata's reaction veers ''very'' close to DudeNotFunny, comparing it to the infamous [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolidV Paz]] spirit from ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate''.

** He prefers an archetype's cards to follow the rules and win conditions of their decks and playstyles. A big ire of his is when cards introduce mechanics that clearly were not meant for the playstyle, such as the myriad of archetypes that suddenly introduce counters and then only use them for one or two cards.

* ShownTheirWork: Unlike many [=YouTubers=] who focus on the card game, Rata is very familiar with the various anime and manga series, and will often point out instances of CCGImportanceDissonance or how a given card was used in the series. He also has a damn near encyclopedic knowledge of Japanese ''tokusatsu'' media, which gets showcased extensively in the Kaiju, Super Quantum, and Inzektor videos. In the later of these in particular, he criticizes the Yu-Gi-Oh Wiki's breakdown of the Inzektors' references to the ''Franchise/KamenRider'' series, claiming that they show a very superficial knowledge of the franchise.

-->If you use this card (or Psyframes in any occasion), you're immediately disqualified from whatever tournament you may be attending for being a fucking dipshit idiot rat bastard.

--->'''Rata:''' God, "1-card Genex FTK" sounds like a bad joke, but no, it's just the future we live in. No flying cars, but Genex can burn you to death.

-> "God, '1-card Genex FTK' sounds like a bad joke, but no, it's just the future we live in. No flying cars, but Genex can burn you to death."

** In the re-review of Genex, the archetype was deemed impossible to grade as their current playstyle is as a Synchro spam engine whose output depends on whether your opponent can remove Repaired Genex Controller and what generic Synchros you make (though they do get vague comments on the scale suggesting roughly where they fall in each category), though the fact that they were even possible to consider grading on a 5-point scale is a huge improvement compared to their first showing.

** Genex, which turned out almost by accident to be surprisingly effective in War of the Worthless. Despite Rata rubbishing the archetype harder than nearly any other archetype in Legacy of the Worthless, it proved to be a deceptively powerful Synchro engine capable of reliably churning out Trishula, among other things. As it turns out, everyone had overlooked the synergy between Machine Duplication (a staple spell card that lets you summon two copies of a monster on the field for free, but only works on Machines with less than 500 atk) and Genex Recycled (a level 1 Machine Tuner that can change its name to the name of other Genex).

** In the April Fools "Archetype" Archive for Sparrow Family, Rata claims they could lose to a deck of ''Uno'' cards. Four years later, Rata made another joke Archetype Archive on ''Uno'' cards, rating them as if they were ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' cards.

** A major topic of the Jinzo video, as he argues that the deck being focused on a monster famous for negating Traps left the deck in a bit of a weird position. Though Jinzo is certainly a historically good card at countering the thing it's supposed to counter, building your entire strategy around it results in a deck that can really only work against Trap-focused decks. He also points out the odd number of cards that rely on a Trap being in play, meaning that, if the opponent isn't constantly throwing up new Traps for Jinzo to counter, the Jinzo player often has to use ''their own'' Traps for that purpose. The essential result is a deck that not only requires the opponent to be running a lot of Traps, but also for them to keep using Trap-focused strategies even after Jinzo hits the field, and also not using those strategies to successfully disrupt what the Jinzo player is trying to do--in short, only terrible Trap-focused strategies.

* CripplingOverspecialization: Often brought up in the context of archetypes that rely entirely on the Extra Deck, particularly Gimmick Puppets and Nordics. Due to being focused entirely on Extra Deck spamming, they tend to review poorly - not just for being boring, but for having no options if they can't make a Synchro/Xyz summon for some reason.

---> Do you guys know what happened to the VideoGame/{{Megaman X}} franchise when they kept telling them to make more even after they were obviously done with it

** The Six Samurai video features a brief knock on the wiki for its habit of listing Single Purchase and Dogu in the "Tips" section as potential searchers for every card in existence (despite both cards being pretty useless), with him "recommending" you run them instead of Shien's Smoke Signal because otherwise your deck becomes ''too'' consistent.
** The Yu-Gi-Oh wikia is a frequent target of this, particularly the Trivia and Tips sections. The Tips section for stretching the meaning of the word to include any play that is ''technically'' possible but requires highly impractical cards or combos. The Trivia section for taking it's name a little too literally and including inane pieces of information or blind speculation.
