The Ever Popular Control Deck - Stylez215

The Ever Popular Control Deck

It seems like nowadays everyone is running some form of control whether it's the standard deck or something more suited to their preferences. It's nice that people want to win and that is of course always the purpose of going to a tournament. But why run the same deck everyone else is using? Have people gotten so desperate at winning that they will run someone else's exact same deck? It's sad and that statement is so very true right now. Everyone is complaining about originality yet no one is willing to try new ideas and decks. I was personally very mad once people started copying my deck. My deck was by far from an original control deck but I ran cards that you didn't usually see. I go to my usual tournaments and since people tend to see me as the top duelist they watch me duel and some people do use the cards i do. My metagame has since gotten back to it's beatdown type playing. But ever since I started running a chaos deck people are starting to pick up on those cards. I have gotten somewhat off topic but people out there are forgetting that this game is about having fun. People don't run control because it's fun, they run it cause it's dominating right now. I have always run control. I got delinquent duo before it got popular and I got a yata as soon as it came out and still have them to this day. I get pissed off at going to tournaments and seeing people taking my deck ideas so I'm currently working on changing my chaos deck a little every week to keep the competition on it's toes. Control. Such a powerful word in yugioh. I see these types of decks nowadays and notice that many duelists worry too much about the opponents hand. Sure you wanna limit his cards but if you play your cards right then you can do that without using any control cards. Personally I think field control is way better than hand control. If you can get the upper hand on the field then it will be hard for your opponent to easily control your hand. Remember that hand control relies heavily on monsters such as don zaloog and spirit reaper. If they can't hit you, then your hand will be safe. Forget about the prenegators. Although they work well, if you can't keep your opponents hand under control then it won't matter in the long run. Personally I can't wait to see if the banned list comes over here. Let's see what everyone does without all the power cards. No more yata locks. No more cheap wins.
