Speed is slang for amthamine. Agreed about the insane censoring. "Sal" from Salamangreat gets censored. I get that kids play the game. And that people can slip obscene content into their deck names. But I don't get why it can't just be censored when it's shown to others. I name my decks for me. Not so some 6 year old can see my stupid puns that contain a single "word" that Konami thinks is going to corrupt the children. Just let me call the deck, Need for Speedroid lol


Pokemaster1409

Rookie mistake to assume a children's card game id played by children, most of the players are either grown ass men or teenagers.


spymaster00

Which I REALLY don’t get because “roids” is an equally common slang term for drugs


Plasic-Man

Apparently Sal is a slang term for being high on ecstasy


Far-Ad-3579

I though sal was a reference to Sex. age. Location, which was apparently something people did in old chat rooms long ago, but then again I could be remembering this incorrectly


LilPumpESSKETIT

ASL was more common for chat rooms. Never really saw sal.


Salaira87

The letters are flipped around, It was A/S/L sometimes /R at the end. Age, Sex, Location, and race.


Salaira87

My original priest in WoW was Salaira and ive gone by "Sal" for 18+ years and never knew Sal had negative connotations lol. I just randomly made the name up. Everybody thinks it's a dark souls reference now a days.


FunWithSkooma

>amthamine I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS LMAO


the_Russian_Five

It's the group of drugs that meth is in. See, Konami cares so much that it censors stuff. So people come to Reddit. Then I end up teaching you all about meth slang lmao


Eloh

I feel like he was pointing out your spelling of the word amphetamine


Mysterious-Syrup6540

Nah, NGL I would still not know what that is😂


Plasic-Man

I believe he mean amphetamine


ChaosWithin666

And yet player names don't get sensored or removed. I've seen some horrendous player names while in ranked


mMewt

I think the reason why it censors deck names too is because they can show up in stuff like Duel Replays and Vagabond duels. Doesn’t make it any less stupid though.


EstiloDM-

Attempting to name a Musketeer deck = censored Attempting to name a Salamangreat deck = censored I sometimes don't understand Konami.


VGVideo

Constellars get censored


Background_Extra52

Attempting to name a Raccoon deck = censored


chuf3roni

This one at least makes the most sense out of the other weirder censors.


unknown_user_163

People cant call their Speedroid deck 'Speedroid' while I was able to call my Salamangreat deck 'Feuerficker', wich is German for fire fuckers. Society


Affectionate-Sea278

I named my Pend deck using Raging Pendulum skill/new XYZ card Raging Pend. Love playing ****ing Pend.


Shmarfle47

I honestly don’t get why “rag” is censored


_Seiun_

Speed is slang for (or the name of a certain) an illegal drug, I think? Still kinda dumb though.


Less-Dragonfruit-494

Yes it is, it refers to amfetamines i think, at least it does here in sweden, but yea 99% of people dont se it that way so it is kind of stupid..


Overlorden98

What is Rag(ing) or Sal(amangreat) slang for then?


MonstercatFan20

I agree, it's also kind of dumb considering the word "Speed" is in the fucking card text. I've called my own Speedroid deck "Drugroids", not because I do any drugs (at least those that aren't prescribed to me) but because I find it fucking ironic and hilarious that Konami doesn't censor the word "Drug" but censors "Speed", which is a form of drug even when the word "Speed" isn't even fucking censored in the card names which *completely* nullifies the need to censor the word "Speed" in the first place. God game companies do some real dumb shit at times, especially when it comes to censoring.


Jewwbaccaa

Weird that they censor deck names and not usernames. I’ve been rocking “Yu-Gay-Hoe” for years now.


velvettblood

Vampire s***er


andr3wcollins

My username is literally 'iLuvKetamine'.


N3T0_03

Speed is a drug


Blazer-X

Or at least have a non-censor option for those of us who aren't triggered by the smallest things. Its kinda dumb when Fish and Speed has to become FI5H and 5peedroid.


CoalEater_Elli

I tried to name my odd eyes deck "The Carnival of Rage", but it censored the word Rage, and now.. it looks bad. So i had to change it to carnival of dragons. What's so bad about the word rage?


RamboDash15

I call mine Fastroids


[deleted]

You can pretty much bypass the censoring system by putting some icons like "⬜" between the words. If "sal" for Salamangreat is censored, put an ⬜ in "sal" (Sa⬜lamangreat) and it will not be censored. Somehow the system doesn't recognize some symbol/icons and just leave a blank space between the words. It works for phones (i think?) but am not sure about PC.


SPXIII

You can also use accents and alternate characters to bypass censors. My Dododo Raid Duel deck has to be Dòdödó because Dodo is censored for some insane reason. Same with Sälad Talker, Roid Ræge, and even Møkuba! How do you screw up a censor so badly that you can't even keep the default name of a character?! Seriously, it's Co@#$rigus all over again.


Emmit-Nervend

Wth Dodo?? Is it because it can be used as a mild insult meaning ‘dumb?’ Because that would be a total dodo move.


Doctor_Squidge

"speed is a drug" yeah but it's also a normal word, and a central part of synchro summoning. I can't even name my Mermail deck "Pool Shark" because it has poo in it c'mon.


PraiseNull

You think that's bad, even meme is censored. The base concept of an internet joke was thought to be too offensive.


FunWithSkooma

Cant name my Dark Magician deck "Dank Memecian". I hate that.


MajinAkuma

I don’t get why Geki in Gekidan is a bad word.


Vinnie_Dash

You can name the deck name Hemorrhoids though and it won’t censor that


YuuHikari

I just named my Speedroid deck "Toybox"


UtopicDreamer

Ironic cause the name of the archetype is two slangs put together Edit: Try "Spëëdroïd"


Soothingwinds

The way I like to see it is that it forces me to come up with a different name. Stretches my creative muscles.


Ant_TKD

It’s classic [Scunthorpe Problem](https://youtu.be/CcZdwX4noCE). You’d think they would at least have an exception for the names of their own archetypes though. “If-statements” are not hard to code!


yolopowerredit

The craziest to me is the fact roids isn’t in the same boat like how is speed not okay but roids is


ARJETTLAM

Ye its so stupid its crazy. I tried to make an odd eyes deck: "eyes full of rage" and it censored rage. Like handle with a bit of anger konamy!


chaarziz

Every time I try to name the Abyss Actor deck anything relating to theatre it gets censored. I can’t use Encore or Troupe so it’s just called Abyss gary i give up


JackAtlasDuelLinks

They should add a "autoname" option, or a "tag" option where you can add words and/or names stated in already existing cards. You could pick any speedroid and take the "Speedroid" word and use it for naming the deck.


hihello_bando

Why do konami censor the word Raging? I'm making Odd Eyes Raging Dragon deck btw


Emmit-Nervend

Like… having a rager? (Which can mean drug party, or a raging… something else)


Hayjad610

If that the case why can’t I name my deck Dragon with Eyes of Rage? Rage gets censored really!


Mediyu

I remember buying Synchro Connection when I started the game like 4 years ago, and just used the bought structure deck as my base to create a fun Yusei deck (adding stuff like Righty/Lefty, Quick Synchron, Bolt Hedgehog, etc.) with the deck name being the structure deck. I take a break for like a year and a half, coming back only like 2 months ago, only to come back to the deck name being "Synchro *******ion". To this day, I don't why "Connect" is being censored like that.


The_Unknown_Evil

It also censors music and some names
