In the Yugitard community there had been lots of complaints by losers like me that a lot of modern card art had been too much generic waifubait animegurls, and not enough monsters for the monster cards, but KONAMI follows the money, and money follows the coomers
Many of the older art had been more monsterous, ghosts, zombies, hydras, mythic creatures from europe or asia, but the past decade more waifu shit had been released in archtypes cuz they sell more cards . It's so obvious too
Here's a post about waifudecks:
it's because it makes our neckbeard hobby look even more manchildlike (unironically)
Anyways sorry, today's post: basically OP asks: what was ur favorite Yugioh playmat? Which is basically these super special rubber mats for turbo autists, because the starter-deck default paper playfield provided in every yugioh sold deck wasn't cool enough for Yugioh straggot eletists.
The 4 examples OP provides, 3 of them are waifubait, and even the Yugioh sub regulars pick up on this

at least OP takes it in stride
Does this one go to anime or /h/traditional games?

I just like how skull servant has whole decks based around it now cause the creators think its really funny how he has the lowest stats in the game.

I will say, as much as modern Yugioh has become a novel baked into every card's text, I do very much like the approach Konami is doing with adapting the oldest cards into the new age. Some of the monsters are now spell/trap cards which are much more thematically accurate.

I love how for some the idea of a good looking woman is comparable to a demonic reality breaking abomination, that is fundamentally incompatible to existence itself.
It's like seeing Lovecraft look at black people.

When a game gets too complicated for rslurs, you're still going to end up playing against them. Except now it's going to take 40 minutes for game 1 and you're going to have to explain things to them. But on the bright side it's a free win for prizes.

I wouldn't call traptrix "sexualizing children", most of the more small / "loli" types are in proper clothing and aren't in some coom pose. There's a few exceptions like arachnocampa who has these weird straps for clothing and allomerus with clothing that exposes the upper chest and stomach. The other more inappropriate ones look like actual adults though.
I like the default traptrix mat, wouldn't call it too coomer, it features two main cards. The plants around them make the mat a bit busy with imagery but considering these mats are just two cards it does pretty good.
I prefer the regional 2020 mat though.
Also it's a good decksorry that yu-gi strags can't OTK unless I go second
