Quitting MTG to play Yugioh

[Tunabros]

Any card players here? I have tons of magic cards and I play casually at locals

hoping to start expanding my mtg collection to include some legacy cards

from like the dark or arabian nights

decided to try out Yugioh since a friend of mine said it was "super cool"

and I have to admit it is pretty cool!

kinda reminds me of a childhood ctg me and friends played called "Vangaurd"

rules seem to be a bit more complicated than MTG but I like the artstyle a lot

too bad there aren't many places to play yugioh near me

example of yugioh cards:

(Legacy) MTG cards I really want (too bad they're too expensive!):

It’s hard to beat the art on those old magic cards. I don’t really play anymore, but I keep like five legacy decks ready to go in case somebody challenges me to a wizard battle. I sometimes think about selling some of my old cards, but I can’t really bring myself to do it.

[starkind]

The yugi oh cards are a brilliant frenzy of insanity to me while the MTG cards are pretty calming.

Sit on ur MTG cards like a dragon on its hoard. I gave mine away and lookit me now.

Live your best life. Start a yugioh gambling book. Make some fucking money. Competition = money.

[DoodyLich666]

I should also say, when I was doing some gaming at shops, it seemed like the yugioh scene was filled with some extremely unsavory characters. Real chomo vibes.

[Gravydoo II]

karate teachers give me that vibe.. like the patches, fake swords, got ryu in the name of your martial arts.. strip mall dojo. lol

I have a co-worker who plays both, he got the highest rank (I think called Mythic?) last month in MTG Arena. He always says to play MTG Arena rather than with the physical cards, although he has a huge collection of both. He says it's just much easier and cheaper cost-wise to play Arena. He says they already ported it to phone too but it (phone beta) only runs on the highest end androids atm

He also plays Yugioh, I think called Duel Links? On the phone. He prefers MTG to it but I dunno why since I don't closely follow either

[Bardp1999]

I have a good friend who is obsessed with collecting cards (baseball cards, NBA cards, mtg cards, pokemon cards, basically anything and everything). He swears up and down that its a great investment and that the card market is roaring back...he is one of those creepers who know the delivery schedule to stores and goes and buys shit right as it is delivered.

If I were any of you I would sell all this shit right now before it crashes again.

I also have a 40 y/o facebook acquaintance who is currently obsessed with collecting Pokemon cards, so i guess there really is a market for this crap.

However, MTG is for incels - although in my youth I loved collecting the cards (i rarely actually played, just built decks and battled my 3-4 friends who played) it's probably the single gayest hobby one can have.

[Naethyn]

MTG is great. Commander has revitalized the entire game. All my cards from 25 years ago are awesome and worth a ton now. I play every Friday.

As long as OP having fun, Byue endorse this fun thread.

Many of my old buddies that I used to sling spell decks play commander. I have thought about building a deck. Seems like an interesting way to play.

If you are trying to play YGO in Taiwan you missed the boat by several years. Flesh and Blood is starting to pick up more and more (at least in KHH and Taipei) though if you want something to do that isn't MTG.

I feel kinda bad for tunabros, I had some insight maybe it's a tralina alt? Deep in the closet now? Had to expatriate themselves to taiwan cause could not afford SRS in the states?

Think about it.

Starkind not so kind anymore.
Lost the cool cute rp.
just a regular right winger now.


with a lot more insecurities.

says the being who is so full of rage they can't accept that people are stupid and ignorant or dont want to be coddled and would rather die then be at the mercy of Amazon's trillions. While Chipotle workers are forced to run slave shifts during a pandemic.

No one is happy about this shit.

No one appreciates this shit.

No one is cheerful that the world sucks.

Some of us just dont want to beg and cry for mercy and we want the power to defend ourselves against the corrupt enablers and stop tolerating the intolerant. Regardless of their idoeology.

Very suruprised to see u jump to tunabros defense, a very ardent Trump supporter themselves who was absolutely shaken and terrified Biden would sacrifice them to china and the root of all evil.

Tunabros is a dick, don't be tolerant of dicks. I'm not going to force u to be nice 2 anyone. Say and do what u want, but I will call u out on ur dumbassary.

----------------------

Why do u think someone on the project got bone chippes nerfed in kaladim? To sell more powerlvling services, even tho its totally unclassic, this is probably all the same person lol.

[Byue]

So, your response to hating capitalism, because obviously, if you reread yourself, what else can your rage be directed at, is to lean right where the republicans give corporations the same rights as you.


So your ideology, in the face of capital baring its teeth is what exactly?
Republicans right now are desperately trying to take some american's right to vote away and actively defend against an armed insurrection they lead against the capitol and you are trying to fight against the sellout and corrupt politicians?
Like Ted Cruz flip flopped more than a pair of actual flip flop and you can hear Sander's getting arrested for the same shit he says now back in the 60's, who is corrupt?


A side wants you to get at least 15$ an hour.
Another is like if they don't want to get exploited maybe they should get a better job lol.


And you think I am dumb.
Well maybe I am.
Like most people, right?

Let me be less subtle: we complain about traffic yet we forget we are traffic.

So when you realize Karl Marx predicted this shit and capitalists laughed at him, come back home because hating amazon for its wealth because that much private wealth is obviously nefarious is not going to make you go very far in the republican party, bro-sis.

[starkind]

I don't think anyone should depend on the government or allow themselves to become weak and at the mercy of a corporation, lobby, or special interest.

Our species has allowed itself to become sick and weak and I don't want to advocate that anyone give up their personal power and freedom for any kind of reasoning. The democrats and the republicans say the same thing.

The democrats say "let us help you the social safety net is there for you (it's not).
The republicans say "the church is there for you, I promise you a job (you won't).

We have allowed ourselves to completely kneel before people with nukes and the military and police and authority. Just because of fear of death. Because we are really weak, and the pollution is killing us. And we can't even feed ourselves, and god for bid we had to eat a bug to survive and be strong and protect our children. Because we aren't strong, skilled, nor disciplined enough to protect ourselves and stand up for ourselves anymore.

[Byue]

Well, talk for yourself.

I feel empowered, skilled and free, everyday.

It's weird how you're like, "work or you are weak!" and then go something like, "we are weak and at the mercy of corporations..."

We are a society, you don't need to know how to do everything.
Calm down.

The social net is there for you, if you let it exist.
Because sometimes, you really want to work but you fell and broke your arm and what can you do but wait for it to be repaired.

There are good people without work.
They want to work but can't, for one good reason or another, right now.

[starkind]

no it's not it's there to drag ppl off the street and kill them with drugs and torture and nazi medicine because the assholes that own ur 'corp' over at chipotle street or whatever don't want u to turn around and go home cause of the pile of corpses their business is producing

they take ppl in to institutions and feed them drugs and grease until they are 350 lb and die in the most horrible way with the most horrible insanity, or until they run wild on the streets high on drugs the state gave them, then the cops just shoot em dead 'because they were acting crazy and reached into their bathrobe'

Complete lie. Someone's bought in to the propaganda. Even the hardcore far left MSNBC called Biden on his complete lies about Georgia's new election law https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/georgia-s-election-law-has-pros-cons-biden-needs-keep-n1263072 which didn't serve to restrict access in any way

I feel dirty to have to use biased liberal mainstream garbage to educate you, but I'm sure it's the only source you'll actually respect. So here you go, time to learn:

[from the source above]
"Specifically, the misinformation being perpetuated about time restrictions on voting hours.
What I’m worried about is how un-American this whole initiative is,” the president said March 25 of Georgia’s “sick” restrictions on voting rights. He affirmed that the law would “end voting at five o’clock when working people are just getting off work.” On March 26, the president reiterated that the initiative “ends voting hours early so working people can’t cast their vote after their shift is over.”
While the impact of Georgia’s new voting law on future elections is a matter of important discussion, what isn’t debatable is that these specific claims about the time restrictions for voting are outright false. And if America has learned anything, it’s that we must hold our leaders to account for the information they share with the masses"
[/end]

You do realize that using an ID to vote is almost universal in 1st world countries on Earth? You do realize the idea of requiring it is NOT to penalize black people, who liberals think are too stupid to be able to get an ID, but to make it more difficult to cheat? Common fucking sense, bro


and actively defend against an armed insurrection they lead against the capitol and you are trying to fight against the sellout and corrupt politicians?



another lie. Nothing in Trump's quotes could be interpreted as a call for violence. Many dem politicians like Maxine Waters did things like call for riots if the Chauvin trial went the wrong way, and no one calls her on that bullshit because Liberal Privilege is a thing. Many dems like AOC also defended the riots in 2020 which resulted in far more deaths and 2 billion in damages. AOC claimed it was just some poor people stealing a "loaf of bread". Yeah right, by loaf of bread she must mean 2 sneakers and a wide screen TV


A side wants you to get at least 15$ an hour.
Another is like if they don't want to get exploited maybe they should get a better job lol

That's weird, because you want to also import millions of illegals who will undercut that wage by working under the table for less? Hmmm

Also, prices go up to compensate when minimum wage goes up. This lessens the benefits not only to the min wage earners but also everyone else. But I personally care the least about the minimum wage, there's far more important issues, and lies, being told by the current administration and their loyal DNC-run liberal media mouthpiece

"Get a better job", YEAH DUDE. Jobs are a negotiation between the skillset you have to offer and what an employer is willing to pay for that. JOBS ARE NOT FUCKING CHARITY. If you have no degree, and no trade skills learned via apprenticeship/etc, then you have jack shit to offer. How are you going to be more valuable than the 100 other people with the exact same skillset? By either getting a degree or learning a trade. This is why banks do LOANS. You use your fucking brain, determine a "break even" point where you could theoretically be able to pay back the loan with the income you make on the job that you qualify for with your improved skillset, and then decide if it's worth it to take a loan out for the education or training. Same as any other investment. But people are too stupid, make the wrong investments, then claim its the EVIL CORPORATIONS holding them back and ask Daddy Government to come save them


And you think I am dumb

You're not dumb, just a sheep

[Gravydoo II]

Can we get back to cards??? I want card memes... i had pokemon red =[ i wish i had collected those damn cards. When i see garage sales i always check for them now.

[Jibartik]

how do yugio players keep track of all those life points?

[Gravydoo II]

Right? Maybe that little arena thing has a note pad or something? Is there a judge/referee that keeps track of it maybe? lol imagine putting that down as your last paying job. "Yugioh judge, 2018-2021 oversaw finals in germany" hahah

[unsunghero]

Can we get back to cards???

My collection of MTG cards ends at Ice Age and unfortunately didn't include the really nice Alpha stuff

I was pretty into Hearthstone for a while. Think I got to Diamond 2 ranking (usually did Diamond every month) or so completely casual, never using the T1 T2 meta decks, always something unpopular (at the time) like rogue decks. Rogue was my favorite class in that game

I personally nowadays would only play a card game digitally. I see it as super inconvenient to have to physically go to a card store to play with an assortment of (probably the same) 2-8 people. Whereas in a digital card game I can instantly play whenever I want against hundreds of thousands of different people

[Tunabros]

great magnetaress ruining another thread by making it all about herself

[Gravydoo II]

I can feel the addictiveness crackling off those games. Cant afford it. lol
