Subject: Vincent Gambinni's Top 10 List of reasons God Cards are a Waist
       God Cards, God Cards, God Cards! Thats all I hear. The God cards aren't actually that great. So here's my list of why they stink. (Oh a note: Someone emailed me about keeping an eye on gods, I'm not writing this because you said to keep an eye on them, I wrote this before you emailed, so I'm not annoyed at you) :)

1 There Everywhere-Every single Yugioh Leauge duelist has one or all 3. I myself have a Japanese Slifer (Osiris). Everyone has English ones and Japanese ones. There common now, so there rareness has gone down the drain. Kids with Yugi Starter Decks have a Slifer!

2 There Illegal-Everyone knows this but let me say this one more time...there not official, they have no logos on the back and if you notice, it says NOT FOR SALE on the bottom of the picture. There not allowed in decks or in tournaments so what are they good for.

3 They Have No Effects-If you look on the English ones, you'll see there is a poem, which I think is cool, especially the one on Obelisk. No effect. If you have a God with an effect it's a fake! So you can't use Obelisk to get 4000 DD to your opponent or 1000 ATK for Slifer.

4 They can be Destroyed-Magic cards effect them for 1 turn only, unless it removes them from the field. So a Dark Hole can destroy them! So why have them.

5 If for some Reason you Do Use them, they Diminish Your Dueling Skills-If you constantly use them and their "effects" you'll get so used to it that all your magic, trap and monster strategy will be gone beacuse you r duels will consist of 1 process get 3 monsters so I can summon my God.

6 Your not in the Show-Now this isn't everyone but, we're not in Battle City, there is no Marik going after the three gods, and the Gods cannot beat Exodia.

7 They Make People Ruin Thier Decks-One kid had the best burner I had ever seen. But when the God Cards became known he got Obelisk and made his deck like Kaiba's. You know, Hitatsume Giant, Dark Zebra, Lord of D., and Sagi the Dark Clown.

8 They Make People Waist Money-Where I go to the Yugioh Leauge, God cards were so popular when Kaiba got his. Kids ran to card shops to get them and when the news finally hit that they couldn't be played, they were left with a card they paid $80.00 for.

9 There Only Good for Collectors-Some people don't duel but just collect and trade to get better cards so they can sell them or just collect. These guys don't buy starter decks so they save money and they make a profit. So they can buy better cards (like Gods) and sell and trade them and repeat until they're happy with their profit.

10 There Way Over Priced-For cards now known to be useless in official duels, the price is still way high. I have seen on a site, all 3 English Gods and the game they come in for $50.00. Now thats an okay buy. But stores are selling all 3 Gods for $200.000! And some kids make there parents pay. It's crazy for cards that can't be used for the tournament. But I guess people will do anything to try to be in a show.
