Welcome to the YuGiOh tread!
I didn't find any previous treads so i kinda decided to just make one myself :v
I wanna see if i can find any people on Facepunch to talk about the card game, like the current meta, the new banlist that hits in April (Konami pls don't do OCG shit to us), deck advice, card rulings, so basically all sorts of stuff
Please do note the different rulings in the United States VS Europe
so to kick things off, what kinds of decks do the Facepunchers play? if they even play at all..
I currently have 4 decks, Burning Abyss, Shaddartifact, Fire king and Yubel.
let's share our love for this children's cardgame!
ive only ever played the original incarnation of the tcg
cant get into the new stuff, it's just nonsense and imo defeats the purpose.
Anyone want to hit me up on devpro?
I agree it's a huge difference now with what the game used to be.
I'm a Tournament Organisator at a local shop here, i see new players all the time, they all pick the new stuff up really quickly
the only real hard thing is to do is to find the right deck that suits you well :v
i like playing nekroz

Pls dont hit prep of rites or -jus in April komoney
they'll more likely hit Brionac/valkyrus/unicore over prep of rites..
you're probably still safe since konami doesn't hit anything that they still earn money off :)
Fuck finally this thread exists. I stopped playing competitively after I sold my Bujins at YCS Vegas but I'm still somewhat up to date on meta.
Right now I have only a half complete Sylvan build I use casually. Thankfully I should have most of the deck after those premium gold reprints. I'll be happy to pick up a few and be that much closer to a complete deck.
[QUOTE=Clovis;47337700]I don't even have a deck. Plus i hate selling cards. When I was 12 i sold a deck of like 100 cards to some guy for $20 bucks and it had a lot of the original print starter deck cards like all the toon cards, relinquished, the original prints of bewd/dark magician, as well as the 3 great sphinx cards and pyramid of light too. There was also Judgment of Anubis, that was one of my favourite cards back then. I've hated myself ever since, I'd do anything for a chance to just look at them again to see what cards I missed
I remember when I was 8 my summoned skull fell down a drain when we were playing outside the class during recess, it was one of my favourite cards, that sucked[/QUOTE]
I've lost wayy too many cards to even count. One of my "friends" betrayed my trust and just kept all the hundreds of dollars of cards I was going to sell to him. I've lost 2 or 3 decks, one with all the amazing old cards back when the game was still young, and another top quality Gravekeeper deck at the height of their popularity when Recruiter was new and my 2 Ultra Solemn Warnings were 40+ each. Multiple cards have been picked right out of my binders, such as a gold rare BLS envoy, Ghost Levaithian Dragon, Evolzar Dolkka, among others, all at their hype high prices.
In recent times I've learned to keep cards close to me, only bring one deck and a small binder, and only trust my absolute closest of friends. Even that didn't work for 2 guys in my group of friends, with one falling off the face of the earth after borrowing my friend's collection of prize cards and other high value shits worth over 1500$. Now I just give my rare cards to a friend I've had for the longest time who can use them for whatever given he gets me whatever I need when I need it.
I run a Gravekeeper deck and a modified Spellcaster's Command deck. I just play with locals here but it's a lot of fun to joke about trap cards over a couple beers.

I played this game when I was a kid, ended up selling my deck to some guy for 100 bucks.
Playing Burning Abyss atm, here's to hoping they unban Crush card Virus for the gold series
[QUOTE=Clovis;47340075]crush card virus should have never even been printed in the first place. cards like it are what make yugioh so outrageous sometimes, the card was a fucking plot device put in the first season as a win condition for kaiba to advance. it has no other use apart from making a duelist win an entire game. it was added to make kaiba win while looking cheap in the anime, and never saw the light of day again, therefore it should not be treated as a real card.[/QUOTE]
you do know that crush card has an errata now? it's effect is different: ''Tribute 1 DARK monster with 1000 or less ATK; your opponent takes no damage until the end of the next turn, also you look at your opponent's hand and all monsters they control, and if you do, destroy the monsters among them with 1500 or more ATK, then your opponent can destroy up to 3 monsters with 1500 or more ATK in their Deck.''
Any ideas for promoting consistency in crystal beasts (tcg and ocg) Sometimes I brick on the first turn and end up losing the game shortly after

Tried looking up a deck profile anno 2015? i usually do that :P
I surprisingly still play YGO from time to time. I'm getting real tired of seeing all these new summons though, especially pendulums. Level 1 normal monsters only with law of the normal is the only way to go bby.
That's not how you spell Skill Drain/Sanguine Swamp/AntiSpell Fragrance/Vanity's Emptiness/Imperial Custom. Add in Qlis and Barbaros.
Oh YES, fucking finally someone makes a thread about this.

The new pendulums are pretty good, as well as the trap, at least if you're playing online. Just for the love of god run 1 or 0 Rainbow Dragons.

infernoids are gonna get some support that i'm actually scared of :o nowadays i don't see anyone playing the deck at my locals, thank god, that deck is hardcore.
i fear i'm gonna see more infernoid players soon, with the new support

Well, Void Launch is kinda bad without the rest of the cards. Frozen Void and Void Dream are going to make it extremely consistent, especially with Tierra being able to send copies of itself for free pluses, and if you have a whole bunch of infernoids in hand, you can just use those too. And there's also the fact that they turn level 1, so you can spam a bunch, then use it to fuse solely from the deck, and that means you end up with a whole bunch of level 5+ infernoids that don't give a shit about the level restriction.

If you're willing to put the eagle in the deck, you could try splashing in Zerophyne. Gets over Towers, most big shit, and if the opponent's pendulum scales don't have a "This eff can't be negated" thing like Qlis, it shuts down pendulum based archetypes too.

Yeah, I already run eagle for things like chidori, and zerofyne seems really useful.

It's cool that you run Eagle, since most people take out Eagle because of the whole "Pegasus can make Chidori anyways" mentality. Do you also run Crystal Abundance? I find it makes for a good backup if they screw your rank 4 plays.

Yeah, only 1 though, if I use abundance it's usually to end the game.

As you should. It's really only good for the OTK. Have you tried Number 82: Heartlandraco? I find it's a great xyz since you'll always have something face-up, whether the field spell that's nearly indestructible or a CB. I run 2 (and no Cowboys because well, 2k twice is better than 800 twice)

I have one draco, saved my ass one game
I still run cowboy though, the final push of 800 won me a couple of games
I enjoy playing the video games of the TCG that are dated around 2008 but anything after that I have no interest. It's way too complicated now and I heard competitive is imbalanced/extreme power creep
[QUOTE=Clovis;47353877]its just what you get when cards are printed and can not be changed
remember when we used to have 2000 LP per duel? DO YOU REMEMBER?![/QUOTE]
Isn't MTG in a much better situation than YGO though?

Cards can be changed, old xards are being changed now like crush card virus, sinister serpent, etc.
Jeeze, I have not played YGO IRL since before they that added that new type of summon that came out around the same time as the second anime.
I prefer my OG Yu-gi-oh.
Also played the shit out of the GBA/DS games.
