BEFORE asking to be spoonfed, try the following:
● Read the cards.
● Lurk and read the archives.
● Play Pot of Cupidity
● Read the cards please.
● Google your Deck before you post it here. If your deck is/was competitive it will probably have topped an event.
● Most games have single rounds or a best of three match; matches are encouraged as they teach you to make use of your side deck for tournament play.
● Remember to playtest and try suggestions before you trash them, even if someone recommends a weird tech choice. You don't know everything.
Which ones will be shit and which ones will be usable?

Anybody going to YCS Origins in Columbus? Main event starts this weekend while other shit started yesterday. Expect a lot of people since the location is so damn accessible.
>>145654847
>Krystal Dragon only two lines of text
It's going to be horrible. Probably something like "You can special summon this card from your hand if you control a dragon type" and that'll be it.

THAT WAS THE WORST V-JUMP EVER
THAT WAS THE WORST V-JUMP EVER
>>145655421
Was that all the Gemini support revealed? There is no chance for some better cards?
Here for petdeks, wanting to fug Lunalights and are there even more V Jump spoilers to come?
>>145655504
8 cards revealed. How many cards Greydle/Shiranui/Digimon got during their debut?
>>145655506
The Synchro archetype and Fallen Angels haven't been revealed.
Let's make a card /dng/
>>145655331
>If you control no monsters, you can special summon this card from your hand. If you do, you can add 1 Dragon type monster from your deck to your hand
Terrortop's OCG text has 4 lines but a restriction on its two effect so I dont know.
>>145655701
That makes sense.
None of the cards in the movie have any real restrictions so that could totally work.
>>145655582
Time to hope for something nice for fairies again
>>145655582
>How many cards Greydle/Shiranui/Digimon got during their debut?
I have no idea. Since this is more akin to overdue support than a brand new stuff, perhaps it will get more than those did?
I really hope Crystrons are at least better than Chimeric Beasts. Accel Synchro is my fucking jam, I've been playing T.G. for years as a petdeck and it'd be nice to have something new.
>>145656212
I need a new good Synchro deck in my life. Still rhe best summoning mechanic
>>145656212
do you have a Clear Mind?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1Sx7B5WnDo
so is it wrong if i prefer crane crane over graydle slime jr. in grayle decks? with crane you can go into lv3 ranks faster while with graydle slime jr you have to have 1 graydle lv3 in your grave while 1 in your hand to be fully able to use his effect. not to mention the restriction on water monster snychros.

Can Chaos MAX blue-eyes make a decently competitive boss deck monster?
I mean a deck which just focuses on summoning him ASAP and checking his counters like monarchs.
What cards do you always sprinkle into your decks?
>>145656974
>Can Chaos MAX blue-eyes make a decently competitive boss deck monster?
>Chaos MAX.dek is worse than pure Blue-eyes builds according to OCG tops
You tell me anon.
>Krystal Dragon confirmed
>Yugi SD has nothing for a ritual DM
>INOV doesn't have anything
So has it been confirmed that all that shit about BLS and Dark Magician was just an excuse to not make this compatible with Pre-Prep?
Yugi didn't even ritual summon in the movie and Kaz hasn't said anything about sequels or a new manga to focus on the end of the movie.
>>145657347
DM could still get random support in future sets since Red-Eyes/Buster Blader got one.
Though, the Ritual DM would most likely be promo and not in main set.
Holy shit. Is it time? Is meme magic really real?
>>145657750
Not yet. The cards revealed so far aren't good enough. We need to meme magic the Gemini Pendulums into existence.
>>145657750
Fuck off you dumb shitposter.
>>145657012:^)
>>145654847
will Krystal be shit?
as much as Silent Paladin?
>>145659679
The only thing it needs is to special summon itself or have some sort of searching/floating effect.
That way, it's perfectly usable in Blue-eyes or other dragon decks.
>>145659598
Can you explain where this card would be useful?
>>145654847
>2 lines of text
will it summon itself or will in banish everything?
find out next time on dragon ball Z
>>145655650
>semon demons
>this card's summon cannot be negated
>each turn your opponent must admit 1 fetish
>for the rest of the duel, your opponent must get you to cum before special summoning
>>145660623
Every deck. For that F R E E +1.
>>145661225
By bannishing 10 cards?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVg7ACy7-yQ
This scene always makes me really happy, and cry. Why /dng/, why?
Spark World seems pretty cool, makes the deck petdeck worthy at least.
Reposting from yesterday.
R8 this budget Blue-Eyes deck I just made with three Blue-Eyes structure decks and some stuff I pulled from a Shining Victories box?
Also yes, I drew that Black Rose. I'm planning to get some 5D's Legendary Collections at the end of the month anyways.
Lightray Madoor is there for some protection in case you don't have anything else and your opponent only has attack resources because he can't be destroyed in battle. The idea is that you try to draw a Lv1 Tuner with him on the field to summon Black rose and get rid of whatever your opponent has.
>>145661909
If you're playing a drawn Black Rose, why not just draw some other good cards so you can play a deck that isn't shit?
>>145661330
I actually thought that Cupidity sounded like shit when it was announced, but I've been using it a lot. It lets you run a few more then 40 cards if you want too since the moment you Cupidity it makes up for it and it just really speeds up most decks. I've been playing it in Melodious and Toon even. You're generally only going to play 1 per duel even if you're running 3 anyway, so 10 cards isn't that big of a loss.
>>145661909
>Also yes, I drew that Black Rose
>>145661985
Well it was the first Lv7 Synchro that came to my mind when I put those Madoors there.
Any suggestions? Preferably cards that aren't too expensive.
>>145661330
When you get 2-3 turns tops and every good deck can OTK, banishing 10 cards means nothing if you get a free draw from it.
>(1) If there are (3?) or more Destiny HERO monsters in your Graveyard: You can discard this card, then target 1 “Destiny HERO” monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that monster to your opponent’s side of the field in Defense Position.
>(2) If you activate a Spell Card, negate its effects and destroy it.
>(3) During your Standby Phase: You can banish this card and (1?) “Destiny HERO monster” from your Graveyard; Both players choose 1 Normal Spell Card from their Decks and place them on top of their Decks.
This sounds hilarious combined with D-Draw/Cupidity + Diamond Dude
There has to be a way to make Chemical beasts good. I've been wanting Gemini support forever.
>>145662873
>I've been wanting Gemini support forever.
keep fucking waiting
its like the WORST kind of deck you could ask
>>145662998
Spark World looks decent.
What are some good cards for a Zombie World deck, specifically the Extra deck?
>New Chemical based monsters
>Not Dinosaur-type
>>145662998
Its pretty easy to make Gemini broken.
Just give them anti-Extra Deck effect and floating/handtrap effect like Shadoll and Nekroz.
>>145663161
Why'd you post a blank image?
>the only good maindeck chemicsl is the LV2 WIND Beast
>>145663161
Can't let you use that Fossil Dig.
>>145657750
It could have been if we get some Warrior Gemini monsters or spells with actual useful effects but it's uinlikely
Arcana Force meta when?
The true test for Konami would be if they can break Arcana Force and make them Tier-1.
>>145663625
Spark World alone lets you get Phoenix Gearfried or Gigaplant off with their effects active.
It's probably a better fucking play than using anything from the shitty new archetype
Am I the only guy who misses the tripfags who used to post here?
>>145664118
That's the best card revealed so far but they can do better I would think
My Mystical Elf has been chanting a spell since the beginning of the match which raises my monsters Attack by 800.
>>145664491
Mystical Elf retrain when?
>>145663768
Print The Material/Spiritual/Heavens Road and make them absolutely broken.
>>145662634
Diamond Dude allows bypassing of Cost so you can Soul Charge while still having your Battle Phase but you would still have to pay LP (implying LPs matter)
Just woke up, I didn't expect the VJump leaks to be until tonight but I'm glad I missed them because holy fuck they were bad. Only hype thing was Krystal Dragon. Hope it's good.
D-Hero Drill Guy is okay, it's basically another Vanishing Lanius except it's searchable by RIP RotA, RIPPIP Stratos and Shadow Mist.
I think it's also the LV4 =< D-Hero with the highest attack so if it's LV4 or lower and it's a D-Hero, you can summon it off the thing, and they're all warriors so you can use them as Excalibur fodder or assuming you open absurdly well, go for a 4 mat ooga booga Rongobongo.
But yeah it and Dark Angel are okay.
>>145654949
What the fuck is this trash?
You call it a rival pack yet Reiji and Kaiba get cucked for that retarded jobber?
The Galaxy Eyes better be an Xyz Change you can lay on top of Cipher.
>>145664836
Oh wait nevermind it has a hard OPT.
It's garbage.
>>145664567
Soon, but first, Catapult Turtle, launch Gaia at the flotation ring to destroy the tower.
>>145654847

Nice
>level 6 RDA
Jack is back?
>>145664567
>gains a chant counter during each of your Standby Phases
>All other monsters you control gain 800 ATK as long as this card has 10 or more chant counters on it, and you control no monsters Summoned from the Extra Deck
>>145664915
D/D/D doesn't need any new toy. The other archetypes need one.
>>145664915
I think those are cards for people who are going to be in Arc-V although they could've just called it an Arc-V Rivals Pack rather than 20th anniversary pack.
>>145654949
I expect all of them would be good. But D-HERO one is most likely the worse one since its gonna be restricted to D-HEROs while other can probably be used in other decks.
>>145665667
>I think those are cards for people who are going to be in Arc-V
Is this a joke?
I get that Kaiba is dead but Reiji should have gotten a card in there.
>>145666102
It makes sense though.
Kaito is in Arc-V. Jack is in Arc-V. Edo is in Arc-V. I don't get Sawatari over Reiji but he's also in Arc-V.
>>145666102
They are cross-promoting with the Booster SP and D/D/D doesn't need new card.
>>145666238
>and D/D/D doesn't need new card.
Yes they do, what about new contracts or more on the xyz and fusion side?
Blue-eyes could use more revival spells or some new dragons.
My dad works for Konami and he says Crystal Dragon's effect special summons it if you control a BEWD
>>145666317
So a deck that's already Tier-1 in the OCG needs even more cards to make it better. Makes complete sense.
God what the fuck. No new Red-Eyes cards? Wasn't there a rumored Xyz? Now we have to wait for the set to be close to release to get set spoilers or they'll reveal a new card on twitter. Pretty boring VJump honestly.
anyone got that high-res close-up pic of nat beasts face?
Is there a way to incorporate this into a Blue-Eyes deck? It's a nice looking card but it's so lonely in my binder...
>>145667372
Wait for the Legendary Decks II maybe?
>>145667372
>Red Eyes
>ever getting anything
not only its card are shit, they are ungodly expensive
black stone? FUCK YOU TEWART
>>145667372
Why the hell were you expecting the 1-2 card nostalgia/old archetype support in V-Jump? They never reveal those cards in the main set V-Jump spoilers, it has to have at least 4-5 cards to get a spot in there.
>>145667660
Add this and the brilliant fusion/Speedroid engine and just let nature take its course.
>>145667660
>Legendary Decks II
wasn't that the timaeus stuff? arent we waiting on part 3 in that case?
ARMOUR CARDS WHEN
Grand Horn or Black Horn?
>>145667660
why wouldnt you just make quasar?
also is evil thorn a good tech in ghostricks?is it at least a good replacement for the speedroids once terrortop is limited?
Overlords saying Krystal Dragon's eff in the movie was adding a dragon from deck to hand after battle.
>>145668704
Its shit then.
Considering how Silent Paladin totally blows, its better to have 0 expectation.
>>145667660
>>145667843
There's no new cards in Legendary Decks 2, only imports you retards
>>145668704
> in the movie was adding a dragon from deck to hand after battle
Is it supposed to combo with Assault Wyvern?
Why the hell is it level 6 in this case.
anyone got a vampire decklist?:~)
WHY does every tag duel have one blackwing player whose hand is GUARANTEED to be bricked for the whole game?
This player is the determining factor in every tag duel.

Every time.
Is there such a thing asAssault Modepetdeck that can do something?
>>145668704
I didn't see that in the spoilers.
Construct did nothing wrong.
>>145662634
>>(2) If you activate a Spell Card, negate its effects and destroy it.
So you summon this to your opponents field and then they just can't use spells?
>>145672915
Exactly.Even though you just gave them synchro/tribute fodder.
>>145672915
yeah, that's pretty much the point, cockblocking your opponent until they can use your monster as fusion/xyz/synchro material and DESU that's pretty hard outside of synchro spam
In PSY-Frames how do you use multi-threader?
What I don't understand is what is the point of summoning it when you summon a tuner because that tuner summons a driver for you anyway.

Only true Rivals get their own cards.
Have the overlords or nico found someway to abuse this card?
Two normal summons and a free foolish burial to any vanilla sound like it could enable some sort of degeneracy.
>>145673074
>that's pretty hard outside of synchro spam
It's a level 1 monster with 0/0 stats.
Monarchs will tribute it
D/Ds will turn it into synchro fodder or make Princess
Blue-eyes will do the same
The only decks which can't get rid of it easily are things like Nekroz and Cyber Angels since they're all rituals and fusion decks since it'll kill the fusion card
>Konami printed a one card out to Nekroz after the deck is barely rogue anymore.
FOR WHAT PURPOSE?
>>145673724
>Kaibaman
>the Crystal pendulums
>No CBs in the rival pack
>No Kaibaman retrain or Blue-eyes in the rival pack
>>145673541
Ayo Vorcia, check your email.
>>145673807
Monarchs need their spells to begin with so if you can go crazy with discarding through D-Draw and Allure along with summoning Void Ogre and combining it with your side it would be pretty killer
Angel is pretty much a side deck card that complements your side
Mask of Restrict + Angel would defeat the Monarch match-up
Rivalry + Angel is also bretty gud

But I guess that Konami thinks that Gigavise being actually viable is BAD

Field Spell Card
(1) Once per turn: Level 5 or higher Gemini Monsters can be Summoned without a Tribute.
(2) During your Main Phase, you can Normal Summon 1 Gemini Monster in addition to your Normal Summon/Set. (You can only gain this effect once per turn.)
(3) Once per turn: You can target 1 card your opponent controls; Banish 1 Gemini monster you control that was Normal Summoned an additional time until the End Phase, and if you do, destroy that target.

Looks like Red-eyes finally got their field spell which makes running the Gemini support worthwhile.

They aren't that awful; just way too reliant on the Field spell. Which is actually pretty bad.
What's better, tossing him into DM as a tech, or building the deck around him?
>>145693220
Building a deck around him.
The less monsters you run in DM, the better it plays.
>>145692717
The cards themselves don't seem good enough for the hoops you have to jump through to get them. Gemini was always about having cards with slightly better-than-average effects that required the second summon to unlock them.
Hopefully this isn't the entirety of the support because so far it's lackluster aside from Spark World.
>>145693220
>free upstart
Best card 10/10
>>145693357
The Gemini can abuse Brilliant, though, given the existence of cards like Woodland Archer, which together with Brilliant pretty much enables the deck, the Light gemini, and Gemini spark, maybe. As well as Supervise and Super Double Summon.
>gemini support in the form of a field spell
>CED is at three and Melody is untouched
Does Konami plan everything in this game out? This even came in the Blue-eyes SD 3 years ago.
>>145693778
Here's another dank meme.
This same dragon was ridden by Sage with eyes of Blue back when he used to ride dragons.
They've gone full circle with this.
>>145693778
It feels like Konami sorta has this giant card design notebook that they reference when they make cards.
To be honest I rank Konami as #1 when it comes to card design, I find them better than Wizards or Bushiroad. Too bad we'll never get to see any info on how they design cards, it would really be interesting.
>>145693712

It only works with Level 4 Gemnis. Of course you're going to run max Supervise in any Gemini deck even though it reeks of old card design.

Did this guy have any gimmicks?
Giant Soldier punched the moon
Dark Magician was Yugi's ace
Mystical Elf was a wall which could support monsters
Celtic Guardian was the obligatory swordsman
Gaia was the guy who could do fusion and ritual
Curse of Dragon destroyed field spells
Silver Fang was powered by the moon.
Summoned Skull was a secondary beatstick.
>>145693220
Just throw one or two into DM.dek. At worst he's an Allure/Sacred Sword target. But like >>145693310 said (and seems to be true of many Spellcaster decks), generally the less monsters you run the better. I wouldn't dare go above 12 myself.
>>145694885
>Beaver Warrior
>Doesn't even have a Beaver tail
You now realize that Beaver Warrior is just a rat on steroids.
>>145695503
>Beaver Warrior is just a rat on steroids
>>145695503
His Japanese name was "Louise" which refers to rat warriors in RPGs IIRC.
>>145695717
THEN WHY TRANSLATE IT AS BEAVER
>>145694885
>Cannot be destroyed by battle. After damage calculation, if this card battles a monster with higher ATK: this card gains 1000 DEF. At the start of the Damage Step, if this card battles a monster with lower DEF than this card: Destroy that monster.
>>145695831
BECAUSE KoA
>>145695831
>expecting dm-era cards to be translated with any degree of competency
>>145695831
Old localization has its moments when its worse than the modern kind
>>145695921
This was UDE's fault though. Everything from LoB to CSoC was UDE.
There has to be something we're not getting about the chemical beasts. Either there's still unknown support, sekrit tech we're not thinking of, or Konami is just that insistent on releasing petdeck archetypes all the goddamn time as filler
I'm leaning toward the last one.
>>145695831
Same reason this was translated from Black Dragon's Hatching to Red-eyes Black Chick.
>>145695985
This card always scared me.
Why the hell was that screaming face there?

OCG F&L List July 2016
Only four changes for the OCG List!
Semi-Limited to Unlimited:
Super Rejuvenation
Limited to Semi-Limited:
Wall of Revealing Light
Thousand-Eyes Restrict
Sangan
>>145696313
Yoy fucking retard
>>145696313
>OCG
Literally meaningless.
>>145696221
>This card is not considered a "Frog" monster, since its Japanese name spells "Frog" 「カエル」 (Kaeru), while other "Frog" cards spell it 「ガエル」 (Gaeru).
>>145696313
>meta decks didn't get hit
>meme cards are now unlimited
So is Wall of Revealing Light shit now that Last Turn and Life Equalizer are dead?
I know Blue-eyes doesn't even both with Super Rejuv, Sangan is shit now and TER is just cheap removal for 1000lp.
>>145690831
Here is an example of me playing solitare.
>>145694352
Konami's card design is more fun and varied but the gap between cards intended to be good and cards intended to be casual is way too huge.
Bushiroad's card design feels more consistent, as though there is a lot more math put in to make sure each card is sound balance-wise. The cards feel a bit more boring in their effects though. I like both equally.
>>145697348
Shit cards should be shit. Good cards should be good. This is how things should be, go be a scrub somewhere else.
>Third world, no local card shops here
>There's a plaza where people play but it's known for people getting their cards stolen
>People recommend you go with friends to avoid this
>Literally no friends
>Wat do?
Should just keep dueling myself with two decks on my desk? I'm tired of YGOPro.
Pic very much related.
>>145697348
>Konami's card design is more fun and varied but the gap between cards intended to be good and cards intended to be casual is way too huge.
You just hit the nail on the head right there.
Konami neuters and underpowers the fuck out of common cards but when they want to sell to competitive players, you can feel that there is a huge card design difference.
>>145695086
He had a few funny reaction faces on the anime
Does the OCG & TCG game operate completely separately? Meaning if the OCG wanted their banlist could rape the TCG's knowing that it'll cause all their precious meta decks to be unusable at World's.
>>145697942
TCG exclusives are already unusable at worlds.
>Wild Ride can make Ultimate Falcon (without material)
What a world we live in.
>>145697595
Anon, the best way to make friends is through beating them in a children's card game
>>145697595
Bring only what you can keep track of, and then bring less. In fact only bring what you can carry in one hand.
>>145697595
Just go with your deck and nothing else, don't go bringing shit like binders, and always keep things close to you, pay attention to everyone and everything too.
>>145698075
I should have mentioned the combo:
>make a Fortune Tune with Farfa as material
>Cattle Call it into Ultimate Falcon
>Farfa banishes Falcon
>comes back in EP, no material, but it isn't destroyed via Cattle Call
>>145697442
>completely missing the point
sasuga /dng/
>>145698314
The point is that these scrubs are basically bringing sticks to swordfights and complaining about how shit their sticks are.
>>145698031
I'm talking about cards that aren't TCG exclusives. Basically just ban a bunch of the Monarch cards and other meta decks so the TCG has to actually come up with something.
>>145698378
The point is that the sticks shouldn't be sticks at all.
>>145698396
The OCG already hit pantheism and domain.
>>145698282
>card is unaffected by card effects
>its effects can be negated to be affected by card effects
>it can later have its effects restored to be unaffected by card effects.
>>145698396
>other meta decks so the TCG has to actually come up with something.
Everybody's playing Brilliant Monarchs already. OCG hits won't impact the TCG Monarchs at Worlds.
>>145698457
Sticks are sticks, there's nothing you can do to change that. Just grab and sword and hope you're better at using it than the other guy using a sword against you.
Let's say there's no ban list and the only cards on the limited list are the Exodia pieces, what's the most overpowered no fun allowed deck you can come up with
>>145698702
Exodia OTK.
>>145698702
Makyura/Frog/Gallis FTK
>>145698660
You're being retarded.
The problem isn't that bad cards can't win, the problem is that Konami makes bad cards. There is no justifiable reason for Konami to make shitty cards, there is no reason to defend them for making an unbalanced card game with little diversity. You are complaining about someone complaining about something, when the thing they are complaining about is actually a flaw of the game.
>>145698702
Shock Lock, Empty Jar, Frog FTK, etc.
>>145698702
just run max(read good) hand traps and play DDD with 3 PoG and feather duster
>>145699103
Bad cards make the good cards seem better. There needs to be some cards that are printed as commons after all.
>>145699225
That is not a justification, you fucking dunce. It is bad for the game and bad for the customer.
>>145698606
Yeah, it's a pretty weird combo. I don't think a lot of people understand yet that negation effects on field first overpower things like Falcon and Towers. (I.E. Skill Drain being up BEFORE either is summoned, or Cattle Call negating the thing it summons before it could be on field and immune.)
>>145699103
Your perspective is flawed. If Konami made only "good cards", some good cards would be better than others, which means there would still be bad cards. Konami intentionally makes gimmicky / unplayable cards to make the gaming value of the cards they actually care about making seem much stronger. There is no reason for Geh to be as horrible as it is, but at the same time Konami doesn't want everyone splashing Geh into the deck, because it diminishes the value of on-archetype cards that they want to have sold instead. Having everyone purchase just 1 card instead of 3 archetype cards is poor business sense, and Konami doesn't have a way to artificially inflate the price because even if they were to short print a GOOD Geh, they would still have to release cards at a later date that would power-creep it, which would also result in a loss of profit from trying to make the Good Geh rarer.
>>145699428
Who cares about the customer? It's about making as much money as possible.
Omega reprint when?
>>145699589
>If Konami made only "good cards", some good cards would be better than others
It's difficult to have the game be 100% balanced so just don't try at all? Moron.
If all cards were divided into good cards and better cards, the least good cards could easily become the best cards with just a bit more support, or banlist hitting unexpected problem cards that ended up being too powerful.
>Konami intentionally makes gimmicky / unplayable cards to make the gaming value of the cards they actually care about making seem much stronger
Yes, that is probably true. It is also a fucking bad thing.
>Konami doesn't want everyone splashing Geh into the deck, because it diminishes the value of on-archetype cards that they want to have sold instead
Does not apply at all.
>>145699590
Then why don't you kill yourself and give Konami your life insurance money?
>>145699790
Right before it gets banned for being too good of a generic card :^)
>>145699790
Just ban it instead desu
>>145700287
It's not only difficult to have a game 100% balanced, it's impossible and pointless.
>>145700427
It most assuredly is not impossible, and it definitely is not pointless. Balance is better than imbalance, there are no two ways about that.
YGO doesn't have to be 100% balanced, but it shouldn't be a "play 1-3 decks or you're fucked" type thing.
>>145700612
Here's the thing: if every deck in the entire world is equally good, then there will never be a reason for players to buy a new deck. Infact there won't be any reason for konami to print new cards. If you want to see exactly why trying to make the entire game balanced is bad; take a look at GX format.
>>145700828
Seconding this, it's why MtG has so many formats instead of a banlist, and forces players in Standard to keep rotating their decks.
>>145700806
It will never be 100% balanced, but more balanced is always better than less balanced.
>>145700828
>then there will never be a reason for players to buy a new deck
That's also wrong. People buy new decks all the time just because they like the art style and/or play style. Not everyone is a netdecking shitter that only plays the deck they think is the absolute best deck possible.
>Infact there won't be any reason for konami to print new cards
See above. People value variety, people will buy new packs solely for the sake of variety.
>If you want to see exactly why trying to make the entire game balanced is bad; take a look at GX format.
What the fuck do you think balance means?
>>145700806
I'm >>145698457
This was the idea that I was trying to get across. The game doesn't have to be completely 100% balanced, but the casual cards shouldn't be designed the way they are now, being so restrictive and underpowered. Why does Konami insist on wasting cardboard printing literal garbage cards? Such decks should not necessarily have to be able to go toe-to-toe with the top decks all of the time but they should not be as weak as they are now.
>>145701031
The fuck are you talking about? MTG forces players to rotate because they have to use the newest sets, not because everything was too balanced.
>>145697348
I'm talking more about card flavor when I talk about card design.
Most of the time all the effects you get in Vanguard is either more power, more attacks, or some sort of guard restriction. Now, Bushiroad has been trying to fix this with keywords for each clan, but they still are bound to those said effects.
On other hand, almost every single card in Yugioh has lore behind it, in where we can interpret it through the card art AND effect. Also keep in mind that there is almost no lore articles for Yugioh like there are for MtG and Vanguard, besides the yearly Master Guide, yet it's almost not needed with how filled with flavor the cards are.
For an example on just how good the card flavor is for Yugioh, lets look at this card.
Now, we know from Igknight Cavalier's flavor text that she hits her allies instead of her enemies most of the time.
Look at the card's effect. Isn't it strange how it can't destroy the card effect it's chained to? But then we remember Igknight Cavalier's flavor text and it all makes sense. The effect is a direct reference to it, Cavalier can't hit her target (the card being chained to) and something else is hit instead.
>>145701267
Yeah, but there still wouldn't be nearly as many people buying new decks, and that would mean less money.
>>145701267
>People buy new decks all the time just because they like the style
No, people buy new decks because they can beat other decks.
Players don't give a flying fuck about variety. If it's because they're too poor, or too loyal to their deck, players would only play one deck for the entire game if they could.
>>145701404
You're clinically retarded, stop posting on /vg/.
>>145701668
>players would only play one deck for the entire game if they could
Literally false.
>>145701267
>More balanced is better than less balanced
In GX format konami tried not to print cards more powerful than the current cardpool. The game nearly died because some retard thought balance was a good thing.
>>145701803
I know I wouldn't change deck if I knew it'd always be able to compete.
>>145701494
>there still wouldn't be nearly as many people buying new decks
And you base this on absolutely nothing.
If every card in a pack was a good card don't you think more people would buy boosters more often? When the chances of getting complete trash in any given booster is replaced with the chance of just getting a card you aren't personally interested in, don't you think people would be more inclined to buy sell and trade?
>>145701987
>if every card in a pack was good
Literally impossible.
