dahairoman: thecynicalduelist: okq: dear everyone with a six samurai deck. do you not just get bored of winning? the deck is stupidly overpowered, it shouldn’t even be allowed to be used. it makes me not enjoy playing against anyone that has one. ugh. the whole point of yu-gi-oh being cool is that both duelists should feel like… Honestly.

Sometimes...
…you can have one bad duel or one rotten person to screw over your night. But I always feel good when i run into a duelist that knows exactly what he’s talking about and doesn’t ditch when he wins or loses and likes to talk about the game. I’m not sore about this loss. Not at all. :D

This was a bad idea...
The higher i’m climbing back up in the ranking ladders. The harder it is to find a duel for fun.

thecasualduelist: I recently explained why you should chain Eradicator Epidemic Virus against a Spellbook deck. I would think this would be common knowledge for Spellbook players since it is a typical move nowadays, but I just saw a high ranking individual claim that he still could use his Tower’s effect… See, rank doesn’t mean that you know everything, even your own card’s effect. He left the...

So something I have to admit...
…I am not the best at this game. Now I can hear you “What, no!” Yeah. Surprisingly, some things in this game confuse the living daylights at me. For example. I’m looking at something I have never experienced in my duels and this is called “MISSING THETIMING ” Big fancy lettering and stuff. Yeah. To me, this is the same feeling of being in 5th grade math and...

Found the deck that broke the game
Bubble Beat. Won a match (not a round, A MATCH) in about 6 or 7 turns.

Thoughts while watching duels.
Here’s some thoughts while watching duels on DN: -First off, I’m watching this duel and it’s so amusing when people don’t know how cards are played. In this duel, a person played Wave Motion Cannon on his draw phrase (can’t do that) and then told the other player he loses 1000 because of it during each standby phase. Where did these guys learn how to play? -When I...

ELEMENTAL DRAGONS EVERYWHERE!
thecasualduelist: Everyone seems to using the Elemental Dragons! Seriously, they are pretty damn good. The ability to Xyz Rank 7 monsters like crazy and summon LaDD on the first turn?! No wonder everyone is using them… Too good. lol

Noob questions :P
huusnl: I have played Yu-Gi-Oh in the past, maily on GBA. Now I found Dueling Network and I really want to start playing again, but I have absolutly no clue where to start. Can someone give me some beginner tips and a good deck to start with? Thanks in advance and a kiss on your hair ^^ I had a similar problem. Thus why my main deck is still a no Xyzs, no synchro E-Hero deck but that’s...

Back to dueling
So I only have about an hour to fit some duels in before work and it’s the first time I’ve dueled in probably 2 months. I think the last card game i played was Magic and that was sort of odd but regardless. I’m afraid that I’ve grown rusty. Updates to follow

I tried to write a rant about this....
…but every time I reached about a sentence in, I had the small inkling I was about to have an aneurysm. That’s because the subject matter was too much for me to even comprehend when it happened today. I introduced a friend to Dueling Network. After calling a lot of moves right. (Like a duelist summoning Brionac or using Catastor to wipe the floor with her). I even corrected her when it...

A quick quip before bed
On DN, I’m getting really tired of poor sportsmanship. Granted I play some of the most frustrating decks to play against but people, please, accept losses without being a dick. Also, if you do win, don’t rub it in. “OOOOOOH Yeah, skills to pay the bills” and shit like that. Although, I have to admit that people get a confused look when you blindside someone with Starlight...

It's Time To Duel!: Tried something new tonight. →
thecynicalduelist: thecasualduelist: thecynicalduelist: In terms of victory, defeat and draw, people do not know that duels can conclude in draws. 5 duels so far with this new deck and caused all 5 of them to end in a draw thanks to Self Destruct Button. People don’t like to… Well played. With Naturia and my Six Samurai, I would think that my deck would be made rather useless. Shi...

It's Time To Duel!: Specifying Decks on DN →
shadowmonarch: thecasualduelist: thecynicalduelist: thecynicalduelist: Now. I just got done enlightening someone to a duel they ask for and, low and behold, I decided to duel them with what they asked for “Malefic”. And they had an anti-malefic deck.

Now. I just got done enlightening someone to a duel they ask for and, low and behold, I decided to duel them with what they asked for “Malefic”. And they had an anti-malefic deck. When you decide to make a deck where it’s “Anti-______”, make sure that you can take on any challenge. I don’t consider you to be a good duelist when you make a deck where one card...

walkhomealone: I remember a day when I was dueling my brother in Dueling Network and he had a Winged Dragon of Ra. He used Ra’s special ability and gave all his life points to it, except one. When he attacked me, I lost all my life points, except one. He ended his turn and it was my turn to draw. I FUCKING GOT A RED MEDICINE CARD and that increased my life points to 51. I lost the duel a while...

Opponent Plays Final Countdown
thecasualduelist: I draw the duel out until the 20th turn and win. xD Psh, stall you want, but you used up most of your resources already. Hehe. And Final Countdown players, remember, you win AFTER the 20th turn ends, not once it begins! You know. I play Final Countdown and it surprises me how much people do not know that it’s after twenty turns, not on the twentieth turn. It’s...
