I don't see it as a children's game, it requires too much skill to be a pro at it to be a kids game.
It's a reference to the popular YGO parody... in America.

I have to disagree though... proven by the fact that 2006 USA champion is a 13 year old XD; I honestly don't think that it's too hard to learn all the concepts to the point that all you lack is playing experience. Other games that are really guided to adults have a far worse learning curve... at least YGO has no cost already. Pokemon got energy factored in as well, and magic has it worse for card games.

I am disgusted that you always have to stay in some kind of "crowd".

There's nothing nerdy about YGO, if you like it, you like it.

I cannot wait for the day where people will stop being dumb pieces of crap and accept people's hobbies.

Anyway, I'm considering quitting, since people always steal my cards.

i am disgusted how YOU think they don't accept ur hobbies, at my school all the 'nerds' make fun of jocks for skateboarding, playing sports like football and basketball, this results in the 'nerds' getting beat and having NO friends even amoung themselves so i'd advise u to shut ur ****ing nerd self up...

i am totally getting banned for this

Mr. Azn, the title of the thread is "who used to play YGO cards", not "Let's bash everyone else". I think you made a mistake. And foul language is a bit of a no-no. Anyway, if that's how it works at your school, I'm surprised that you're still alive. Being a member on a Pokemon forum for any reason is plus twelve in the nerdiness category. Everyone here is a closet nerd. Some of us have other, non-nerdy interests, but the world at large would group us as nerds as soon as they saw the "massive amount of time playing children's video games" up there. You, sir, are therefore just as nerdy as the rest of us. BTW, I'm not only a gamer. I run cross country and do drama as well, so don't you dare say that I don't qualify. And FYI? Nerds skateboard.

Yoshimitsu, you're just as bad on this one. If you can't say anything constructive, don't say anything at all. Sorry if it sounds like I'm mini-modding here, but I really can't stand juvenile arguments in the middle of threads.

Anywayz, I don't play myself, since I haven't had the chance to get my hands on Spirit Caller or WC007 and I don't feel like looking for cards otherwise.

I'm with Frostweaver on this one: hurry up and get WC07 so that I'll finally be able to duel someone (that means to HURRY UP, Frostweaver. My decks are already complete).

Yeah, I don't buy the cards themselves so much anymore. I'm more of a "Wi-Fi gamer"...

It is soooo not my fault that I don't have the cards to do any of the lv 1 theme duels. I mean, I certainly were not aiming at useless packs to get myself LP recovery cards (except nimble momonga) to heal myself a darn 10k LP. -_-

So I'm still stuck on lv 4 duelists =( very very slow DP progress.

Join in the fun of 250 DP per duel at lv 4, ACC, join

All right, point taken. Sorry for not defending you earlier. Though I've got to say, I learned to play MTG once and found it rather boring. Dunno why.

Mr. Azn, twenty percent nerd is the same as nerd, it just means that you're not a very nerdy nerd. You need to stop bashing people, that was my point. In retaliation, of sorts....

Currently I've become more of a wi-fi dueler, but I do still go down to my local card shop on Sunday's and duel in the small tournaments. But even before I got WC07 I was more of a collector than someone who actually plays the game. So far I have completed almost every set. The only ones not completed are the first three sets when most of the cards consisted of normal monsters instead of effect monsters.

I really want to ask you how many duels against the lv 4 duelists have you done until you got enough cards to do the themed duels ;_; Frosty is totally pissed after 100+ duels with the lv 4 duelists and still haven't got enough cards to do stuff like "recovery 10000 life points" and "ritual summon 10 times" (what the heck, how do you resist decking out from that many ritual summons)

I used to but there's no one to play with now because all the people in my school and on my block hate it. ( Becuz it ain't GHETTOOOO!)

It was so fun making up special abilities for my cards and having people actually believe me. Those were the days..

I really didn't have a real problem with the duelists. I found during the second set of six that a simple burn deck kills all of them, though the duels can be pretty long depending on the type of deck they are using. If you are still having trouble with them I'll post the deck I used (most of the cards are really easy to obtain)

Spoiler:
Monsters - 20
2x Lava Golem

3x Des Koala
3x Giant Germ
3x Mystic Tomato
3x Nimble Momonga
3x Stealth Bird
1x Mask of Darkness
1x Sangan
1x Spirit Reaper

Spells - 11
3x Messanger of Peace
2x Wave-Motion Cannon
1x Swords of Revealing Light
1x Scapegoat
1x Pot of Avarice
1x Mystical Space Typhoon
1x Level Limit - Area B
1x Heavy Storm

Traps - 9
3x Secret Barrel
3x Ojama Trio
1x Torrential Tribute
1x Gravity Bind
1x Mirror Force


... and still haven't got enough cards to do stuff like "recovery 10000 life points" and "ritual summon 10 times" (what the heck, how do you resist decking out from that many ritual summons)
I don't even remember how I even did the theme duels. Most of the time when I acctually completed the duels they were because I got lucky or I look online for some hints. I usually just did what the duel asked me to do instead of aiming for the S ranks and I only had to do about 8 before I got the next level so I would just do the duels you know you can do (at least 8 duels) until you have enough packs and then aim to get the S ranks.

It's not that I can't win the duels (they're pushover... except for occassional lucky Cyber End Dragon for starting off with Power Bond and Overload Fusion as the opening move -_-) but just that I'm ultra-annoyed at how slow it is to accumulate DP...

It's not easy at all just to aim for lv C with a highly limiting card pool =(

You really have to venture out to specific clubs or hobby leagues in order to play card games sometimes. Card stores is a good place to ask around and see if they hold gatherings for occassional playing time, especially if you see a "table" in the store somewhere ^^;

I used to play, until I kind of stopped buying the cards. Now, I only play with my family, if I feel like it. I do have WC2007 though.

Recovery was easy, Solemn Wishes was my friend there. I haven't done Ritual yet. I didn't really duel the level 4 duelists all that much, except Cyber End Dragon, but that was only about 40-50 wins. So compared to how many times you played, I have nothing.

I think part of the problem is that I'm just naturally tempted to only open packs that "appear later" because more than likely, the earlier packs contain more normal monsters than effect monsters, thus useless. Solemn Wishes, Draining Shield and those sort of things are probably hidden in the packs I considered as useless >>;


I always thought trading card games IRL is an expensive hobby, be it YGO, Magic or even Pokemon. Some of those comepetitive cards that are much needed and necessary are insanely expensive that poor college students cannot possibly afford. Surely everyone can recall how Card Trooper was initially a 3 digit value card (in american dollars) >>;

It's unreal how expensive a children's card game can be. Then again...



With this children's trading card, I can RULE THE WORLD!
