Favorite Duel Monster

Exodius is a better alternative imo. Though it depends.

What did you used to play to, Wei P?

Were you a rusher, like me? 😛

I favoured Graceful Charity over Pot of Greed.

Thing is for one card, Graceful Charity lets you draw three, sure you have to discard two afterward, but typically you'll be looking for one or two cards in particular when you use a card like that so Graceful Charity gives you a better chance at drawing the card you need. Plus you can have 3 of them in your deck. Since you can then choose any two cards in your hand to discard after drawing i always found it to be so much better.

That is my favourite magic card.

I'd rather have both of them depending on the situation 😛. GC benefits me when I need certain cards in the graveyard, or I'm using Dark World Monsters. Oh, and Graceful Charity is Limited now. Only one of those bad-boys is allowed.

That's why it's good 😛.

Yea, I went to a preview tournament for Stardust Overdrive two weeks ago, and somebody got that card from a pack. I was just glad they couldn't use Stardust because they had to make a deck from Stardust Overdrive cards only.

Neat.

lol Victory Dragon is kinda cheap as well.

Meh, I don't like the dude. Sacrificing three dragons (though you could make it easier) then attacking directly for the match? Meh.

And wait what about Dark World, wouldn't it work for Dark World monsters to be summoned? It's not a cost.

Yea, I need Neo-Daedelus for my water deck. And Levia-Dragon Daedelus.

Dark World monsters wouldn't be summoned via CED's effect. It's not a discard.

~ Oh, and Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon looks a heck of a lot better than Metal Darkness. Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon pwns them both though. It sucks that he's much harder to summon though.

😕 Smells. I have 3 of them.....

Meh, as long as you don't take part in tournaments (it's Forbidden in the OCG and Limited in TCG), I guess it's okay. Though you'll probably have to let your opponent know and see if it's okay with them as it is Limited.

That's if you still duel of course 😛.

Can't argue with that logic though. 😄 I agree, but like you said, it depends.

I prefer Red Eye Zombie Dragon more than them. lol

Also (pertaining to the thread topic), Dark Paladin. 'nuff said.

Wrong.

You do know the difference between the Advanced & Traditional Formats, do you not?

As I highly doubt EA will be participating in Sanctioned Tourneys (she said she no longer plays), it should be fairly obvious that I was talking about the Traditional Format.

lol Yea if your the one using it. But I'd rather go for Colossal Fighter, I think it is, instead if I synchro, or Junk Warrior I believe for my attack life points directly with all those level 2 and 1 monsters that can attack directly. Just not a dragon person. lol

You don't like Dragons shock?
OFF WITH HIS HEAD!

Originally posted by Kento
I've never seen anybody play him, though then again unless you're at a tournament his effect is worthless and isn't he banned? And people can get much stronger dragons out in one turn. Like Five-Headed Dragon.

Not just banned. Illegal. Meaning his status can never change (probably), and that he cannot be used at all. All Match-Winners are illegal (like the God Cards) in fact.

Originally posted by Kento
Ah yes, ah well. lol

It would have been neat though, if Dark World Monsters could be summoned like that. You could pretty much OTK an opponent like that.

What's with the Zombie luv? Darkness is better my friend 😛.

Ah, Exodius. Another good monster I forgot about...

Yep. The only thing is, I think he looks kinda funny 😂, having a tanned skin color and different colored 'clothes'. The other two Exodias have been fully black or bronze/golden.

Originally posted by Ridley_Prime
Once again, I agree. Also prefer Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon's special ability over Metal Darkness Dragon's, though it can be useful too.

Theoretically, he's easier to summon than Darkness, as you need any dragon (should have been Red-Eyes imo, and he should have been given another effect) on the field. But yeah, the ATK increase of Darkness can be really great.

Tell me about it...

Oh I could tell you loads about how people have based their entire deck around him (including myself), only to lose because you need 3 blue-eyes, a polymerization and the wretched card itself. & that's if those guys can even make it onto the field.

Another one of my all time favorites ✅. Kicks any Dragon's posterior, along with the ability to kick the posteriors of spells too. I admit, I was amazed when I saw Yugi summon it against Kaiba.

Banned. Meh who cares, although it was at the end, we played with the god cards for the lulz. Well, i didn't but... that's just because i could never work out a good and original strategy for any of them.

The only reason i play(well played i think allot of my cards are out now) in Standard in Magic is because if you don't there are too many auto-win strategies.

Lol, they've banned allot of the good cards. Guess there's allot of butt hurt in yugioh. The only one at a glance that derserves to be banned is the crush card virus.

In traditional, it is limited regardless of OCG or TCG. So I don't see how I was supposed to derive that you were talking about traditional from that.

Graceful Charity is Limited in the Traditional Format. Perhaps I should have clarified earlier as TCG has two formats: Advanced (banned) and Traditional (Limited).

Well, there are also a lot of sure-win strats with those Forbidden Cards like the infamous Yata lock.
Some are just too plum useful e.g Pot of Greed which gives you two extra cards for no cost; or Black Luster Soldier: Envoy of the Beginning, who can remove ANY monster on the field from play, or attack twice in a row (provided he destroyed a monster in the first attack). He has 3000 ATK by the way. His first effect was broken.

There are a lot of cards that deserve to be banned believe me. While others are just banned because they are a part of a powerful strat, which sucks.

TCG has two formats of which Traditional is one, and EA doesn't play in tourneys (anymore?).
I was talking about Traditional, I just used a higher branch instead.

What decks and strategies do you use in Magic?

i used to like (iirc) nailing a strong monster with kaisitai, and then having that grim reaper looking 3-star monster that can't be destroyed in battle (in defense mode), i just rack up life points.

+ ring of magnetism so all attacks go to him.

cyber stein is also awesome. summon thousand eyes resrict, or blue eyes ultimate dragon.

oh yeah, cheap ass magic cards:

- mage power

- united we stand

- raigaki

- that one that doubles a monster's power if your lifepoints are lower than your opponents..i forget the name. it rocks if you can use it in concert with cyber stein sacrifising life points to summon BEUD then powering it up to 9000 atk and getting to attack with that fusion monster in the same turn...and equiping bing bang shot so it goes through to the lifepoints directly with 9300 attack.

i've won on my first turn like that.

Ahh, Spirit of The Reaper. He can't be destroyed in battle actually, but he takes damage which is why you usually play him in defense. Great wall monster. I forget, can he attack directly? Or is it the fusion version?

Lots! 😄

When i first started a used green. Just your typical fairy deck. Then i went into Milling for awhile.

It was only somewhat recently i switch to black/red. Decided it could be fun to be super-aggressive 😛

Which it is, being able to rush like crazy is great. I can't be bothered to find out what it is, but i also run cards that let me choose and discard cards from my opponents hand. Helps getting rid of things that might be troublesome for me ^^

But i think my heart belongs to mill decks 🙂 It's so much fun to get people so frustrated teehee 😄

😂 Megamorph, The good ol' days. Sadly, these days, it's all about effects and ATK has for the most part taken a backseat. >__>
