Ok, I'm just gonna get this off my chest here and now. I know most of you probably won't know/care about YGO but that's fine. I just need to say something. It'll be in a cut if you don't want to read it.
Ok, first off, they go and make game breaking cards like Raigeki, Imperial Order, Fiber Jar, and worst off Chaos Emperor Dragon - Messenger of the End. Then they turn around and ban them. But they give the option to play them anyway .. even though they are too powerful. BUT, they make it so you can't use them in Tournaments. Wow. That doesn't stop the casual everyday duels. It's STILL unfair. The little ban list they're trying to make is BULLSHIT. It won't make any changes to the game at all. The unoriginality of YGO decks will still be around. If someone is at a Tournament, they'll take and get a copy of the winning duelist's deck to post on th' net and let EVERYONE fucking copy it. How original.
THEN, they go off and fucking made the copies of the three Egpytian God Cards. These cards are litterally UNSTOPPABLE. Then they say "These cannot be used in a duel." (Seriously, it says that in Japanese on the Japanese Gods and in English on the English releases). But do people listen? NO. They go off and use em anyway. I have the 3rd God, Winged Dragon of Ra. I don't duel with it as much as people think I do. It's fun but VERY unfair to your opponent. They also come out with REPLACEMENTS to the banned cards. In the next set (named Flaming Eternity), they have a card called Lightning Vortex. SAME THING AS RAIGEKI but .. OH! WAIT! YOU HAVE TO DISCARD 1 CARD FROM YOUR HAND TO USE IT. That's it. ONE card. Not 2, not 3. One. That's bullshit. Why make that card? Just UNBAN Raigeki.
They also have cards in Japan that aren't even out in the US but they've been in Japan for a long time .. a LONG time. Case in point, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon. Is it out in the US? No. Is it out in Japan? Yes. They made a card called Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon and released it with the YGO Movie, but here's the kick .. it NEEDS BEUD to even see play on the field. Why the fuck do you go and do that when you don't have the needed card to bring it out? I'm not mad at Japan, I'm mad at Konami for being so fucking lazy and stupid to do this.
I'm also sick of the stupid fucks playing YGO at my school. They're greedy, they steal, and they lie. Why do I still go to them? Because I want their cards, I don't care about their friendship. Serious, NO ONE in that little group LIKES anyone in the group. Yes, we all hate each other. It's amusing really.
This is why, sometimes, I feel like selling all my cards and getting into Magic: the Gathering ... that game seems more ... I don't know .. polite. Atleast the players at my school do anyway.
(Edit: What's my favorite card? It's a card called Devil's Sanctuary. It has a high cost of 1000 Life Points to keep in play but it's GOOD. It's not unfair .. ok having a token that has the ability to redirect attacks to one's LP is biased but .. you only get 8000 LP starting out. You can only use Devil's Sanctuary for the max of 8 turns until you kill yourself. It's a bit biased but the payment makes it a bit more fair. Too bad Konami's too fucking lazy to release it in the US.)
