Subject: Rant About Ranting: By Timmy L.

Hey, i'm a new player of the Yu-Gi-Oh card games and a big fan of the site. But anyway...
     I take a look at the tips page everyday and i'm getting tired of people complaining 
about how susceptible a Blue-Eyes is to Trap Hole, or about how Toon Monsters aren't worth 
playing Because of Life Points and Tributes and blah, blah, blah! We've heard all this stuff 
before. People play these card because they like them. If that means loosing a duel or two, 
then so be it! People have to realize that this game and these cards were made to be played 
and\or collected (Whichever your preference is) for Fun! This isn't life or death here people! 
Every card in this game has it's own purpose. Some cards ARE better than others, but that 
doesn't mean that everyone should have 3 Summoned Skulls, 3 La Jinns, etc. just because 
they are good ATK. for their star rating. Realize This Everyone
     No card is perfect! The is No ubeatable strategy! And Every card is vulneable to some 
other card out there! Stop complaining about Megamorph...we all know it halves the ATK. 
when your opponent looses those life points!
     I know i'm gonna get blasted for this but her it goes...Sure it may be cheesy, but 
like Yugi says in the cartoon, you play the cards you like, and respect the card you play. 
It's not just about power or strategy. Every duel relies on 3 things, knowlege of the game, 
the way you like to duel, and the most important..."Luck Of The Draw." (Unless you cheat, 
plant your deck and don't shuffle). Please, for the sake of fun, play this game, stop 
complaining about other people's ideas, (I know this makes me a hypocrite, but Oh well), 
and enjoy yourself. You will never have a perfect card or deck, because there is no such 
thing as one, and if there was, then i wouldn't play because the same thing would happen 
every time!
     If you took the time to read this without flipping me off, then thanks. If not, then 
don't judge me too harshly, (I'm new at this stuff.)If you want to talk to me about the 
game, the cards or anything related, than feel free to do so. Thanks.
