Yu-Gi-Oh! (who plays?)

[Malpercio]

i was reading the talk of the day, and i was wondering how many others play, besides me, skree, and person.

post your deck if you play, maybe we could get some kind of web site to play online.

My deck's a cobbling together of older series cards, due in part to my ditching the series during the GX period. doesn't mean it isnt trashy. good power combos, hoping to add a Blue Eyes White Dragon sooner or later.

You're mistaken. I've not been interested in trading card games for over 8 years.

[personitis]

Wow MetRuler, thick deck you got there. First I'd like to point out you can't have more than three copies of a card; you have four Pot of Greeds. Second, if you want a good functional deck, it's gonna need a theme. As of now, I'm still assembling a deck since one of my friends recently dragged me into the competitive side of it.

However, here are some of the stronger cards to my deck that I've pretty much decided on:
(Reg. Monsters)
-Chaos Sorcerer
-Skilled Dark Magician > Dark Magician > Eradicator Warlock (combo)
-Endymion, the Master Magician
-Mythical Beast Cerberus
(Synchro Monsters)
-Tempest Magician
-Arcanite Magicain

Basically the idea is to build the field with a s*** load of spell counters, then destroy them all for 500 LP apiece. Two worst enemies though are Giant Trunade and Spell Exhaust... those cards will rape my deck. ;~;

Outdated, haven't revamped that deck since they had Magician of Faith legal again (that was over 2 years ago iirc, and then she went back to forbidden again soon after)

I love playing this game, I think I'm pretty good with at it.  I've built lots of different kinds of decks, but that on is my favorite.

edit:
metruler1990: that deck is rather odd. It doesn't seem to have much of a theme... just a bunch of random cards put together.  Not bashing it or nothing, don't take it the wrong way.

[Zhs2]

My friend forced a deck of Yu-gi-oh cards on me forever ago and I can't remember where they are now. They're probably hiding in my room...

[Scyzer]

I like playing the game, but NO ONE I know still plays it, and wouldn't know how to find peoples, so I don't... I still have my deck though =P

I do realise that since Metamorphosis is illegal, I wouldn't be able to use Thousand-Eyes Restrict, and thus there's no point to having Thousand-Eyes Idol either. Also I'm pretty sure the 2 Envoy cards (Chaos Emperor Dragon + Black Luster Soldier) are illegal... cause they're too frikken good.
That's ok though, cause basically my whole deck system works around getting out Armed Dragon LV7, which can clear out opponent's monsters, then attack directly =D
Now if only I had a LV10...

[personitis]

Ugh, dragon decks using Armed Drangons... <.<; Well, there is worse
[spoiler=Freakin'...]Use Dragon's Edge Mirror to bring out five headed dragon in one turn only to be shortly followed by future fusion and bring out another...[/spoiler]
Meh. Through research last night I believe I'll be running a lock down spellcaster deck. As for those curious to see what cards as forbidden or not, linkified.

[Big Gay Cell]

Yeah, I used to play.  But I sold everything except parts of my main deck.  I mostly play Magic the Gathering if I play any TCG, though.

[zephyrtronium]

I have three decks, but since I've made them I've never been able to play with them. I have one particular combo that I enjoy very much, however...

Cat's Ear Tribe: 200 attack, 300 defense; special: anything attacking it has its attack reduced to 200 for the damage step.
Attach Raregold Armor: opponent can only attack it.
Attach anything that boosts attack: now invincible.
Mucus Yolk: 0 attack, 0 defense; special: attack life points directly and gain 1000 attack each time you attack.

A five turn win if things go well. It can only be stopped by something that specifically destroys monsters or equips. :portal:

Also I typed this at 5 AM after not sleeping! :awesome:

[Hiroshi Mishima]

While I've never actually attempted to play Yu-Gi-Oh!, I have some of the cards I swiped from my cousin I happened to have liked some of them. Similar to why I own a few Pokemon and Digimon cards. However, I did play Magic the Gathering back in Elementary school, and possibly my first year of Junior High, I don't remember anymore. Was only so-so at it cause I wasn't a super serious player, but I enjoyed it. Used to have a lot of the cards, too, but then it became something I just had because they were nice to look at. I don't think I still have them anymore, may have sold them.

But I have played some of the YGO games out there on various consoles. Usually not very fun, but occasionally I enjoyed myself before the CPU started making broken decks. I did, however, watch the show a lot when it was on. I watched every episode from the beginning up until the Kaiba Tournement where Mai lost the Shadow Game on the .. what was it an airship or plane? Anyways, by then the show started getting too hard to follow/keep up with and I didn't see the movie. I also found the later shows to all be attempts to remix the original show or rip off other shows that had done similar stuff at the time. Card-game based shows seemed to explode in popularity for a while there. >_>

[Malpercio]

skree

You're mistaken. I've not been interested in trading card games for over 8 years.

sorry, meant inter.

[Crashtour99]

and I didn't see the movie.

This sums it up quite nicely while still keeping it entertaining.   :heheh:

it doesnt have much of a theme. yet. my deck was built from a  bunch of randomized collections of old cards, not any specific starter/structure deck or booster pack. also,  i like the deck thick. moar cards may make it harder to get the cards i need, but allows more room for combos. current theme is close to Dino/Dragon tho.

after looking up the limits, im only allowed 1 Mystical Space Typhoon. :P

[squishy_ichigo]

lol @ topic bump

might as well post another of my decks (I haven't played in awhile.... these were constructed ages ago...)

[spoiler]'Roid Deck

Monsters
1x Drillroid
1x Submarineroid
2x Steamroid
3x Rescueroid
2x Ambulanceroid
1x Expressroid
3x Patroid

1x Cyber-Tech Alligator

Magic
2x Ekibyo Drakmord
1x D.D. Borderlind
1x Swords of Revealing Light

[/spoiler]

Not the best of decks, but I certainly have fun with it!  With only a few magic cards, I make pretty good use of D.D. Borderline, and with cards like Marshmallon, Spirit Reaper, and Heart of Clear Water, I don't have to worry about loosing life points as much. :D

This is a deck I break out just to fuck with my opponent.  If I win, great, but its so much more fun to see the anger in their eyes then it is to win. xD

[Malpercio]

i updated my RL deck a bit, mostly taking out forbiddens/limiteds and cards that just didnt fit.

also, anyone here heard of Yugioh Virtual Duelist(now Desktop)?
www.xerocreative.com <-- go here.
it's a program that lets you construct your ideal deck out of all the cards released. it also checks and prevents accidentally adding forbidden/too many limited cards to your deck. The best part tho, is that you can play against other people, using that deck you just built. It's a really good way to keep playing the game if NO ONE you know likes to play.

get on there and i can show you the Dragon and, for lack of a better term, Anti-dragon decks i have

[squishy_ichigo]

hellzyeah! Thanks for that metruler! I just found something to do today! :D

[personitis]

Oh boyz!! My weekend just keeps getting filled! =D

[Malpercio]

also, if you look there, they have their own irc network they use for tourneys, duels, etc. irc.xerocreative.com if i'm right. the main channel there, #yvd , is where all the duels can be found, normally. coincidentally, also a good place to chat.

[Hiroshi Mishima]

This sums it up quite nicely while still keeping it entertaining.   :heheh:

You know, I'd totally forgotten about YGO Abridged until my cousin showed me the Leather Pants video, and I started watching it and OMG was it freaking hilarious. Kinda.. not sure how I feel about some of the jokes made at Mai's & Serenity's expenses, but overall it's a lot of fun and I laughed waaay too much last night watching season 1.

[Parabox]

Hiroshi: May I remind you humor is mostly to find the line of where something is no longer polite, and boldly cross it? It's humour, don't take it seriously. Just laugh.

[Hiroshi Mishima]

No, I just meant that while 98% of it is perfect, win, and awesome.. there's those 2% of jokes that I found to be out of place or just plain not funny. So far there's only been 2 episodes from Season 2 that I haven't liked, the rest before and after have been pretty much pure gold so far.
