Subject: Revolution Format Final Test Version 0.4 - Johnny Tek

Project R, the campaign for a third format, has entered its final and most widespread run of testing for Revolution Format. Players are reminded to keep in mind that this format is for experienced players and that Project R is not trying to replace the current format used by child and adult alike worldwide. The goal of Project R is to create a new option through high-end tournaments for players looking for a higher level of challenge and a Yu-Gi-Oh!
experience that is much closer to Kazuki Takahashi's vision than what is currently offered in the tournament system. In Revolution Format, none of the cards becomes a "Deck Staple" that appears in every single competitive Deck. (such

as Mirror Force or Heavy Storm or Cyber Dragon) This means that in a tournament setting using this format, players can not predict or assume what any of their opponents' cards will be before the Duel begins unless they have previously seen the opponents' cards in action. Many unusual themes, difficult card combinations, and never-before-seen strategies are made competitively viable so even though it takes more effort and more thought to construct a Deck and Side Deck using this format, the fun of actual game play is very much worth the extra work.

If you'd like to find out more about Project R, you can send your e-mails to

JohnnyBQuick@aol.com.

P.S. Don't forget to read the explanation text carefully before trying out the format. (especially while putting together your Deck) And if you think that the restriction list has too many cards on it to make a Deck, you're undoubtedly a victim of Advanced Format-conditioned "Brain Shock", because the number of cards on the list (192) is less than 10% of the total menu of cards currently available worldwide. (over 2,100) One of our testing volunteers in New York was only 10 years old and even he was able to make a decent "Frog" Deck using this format.
