Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Game Rant(please read)-NamelessPlayer

Sup all… Pojo and company… players, I have come with a ra rant (hence the title

of this). I'm awfully pissed at several facts about our main subject: Yu-Gi-Oh! The first

reason I'm pissed is the fact that EVERY card game I played or tried

(MTG,Pokemon,etc.), EVERYONE, I mean EVERYONE has the EXACT same deck!

I've seen everyone in Pokemon play a Haymaker deck, everyone in MTG play

Stompy decks, and NOW, everyone person playing in this Yu-Gi-Oh! environment  

play a Beatdown Deck! This disturbs me because everyone thinks that because you

have 3 Man-Eater Bugs, 3 Summoned Skulls, and 3 La Jinns mean you got yourself

a winning deck……. NO! That's not how card games work! The ob objective of a card

game is to MAKE YOUR OWN DECK and beat people with YOUR OWN DECK

IDEA!! But then again, when someone else finds a great deck idea, EVERYONE

ELSE COPIES IT!!! Come on people! I know you guys don't just look up the internet

and copy someone else's deck and claim it as your own (that's plagiarism might I

add). Whew… not that I vented enough about that subject, on to the nnext one.

Throughout my dueling career, I have found DOZENS of people stealing, acting

like pure jerks, or otherwise acting like they are SOOOO hardcore at Yu-Gi-Oh! I just

hate it hate it hate it! ::kicks his table and it falls:: Don't get me wrong or anything, I

love to play the game, I myself has given up the evil Beatdown deck and have sticked

to my own deck ideas. The environment of every card game is just plainly the same.

Someone makes a good deck, 5 minutes later… everyone in the entire UUS has it!!!

It's just déjà vu all over again for EVERY card game I have known come into

existence. So right now, I think I vented enough… so… anywayways… thanks for

reading this rant and I'll hope to see you at a tourney or something. (Oh ya, please

don't send any hate mail, viruses, etc. to me please ^_^')
