Self-Destruction... NOT!

Your playing a video game that isn't programed with Tournament policies, did you expect not to fail? o.O

 

w/e, it didn't work in the game and I don't think they'd let you win IRL with that either.

Ive done very well in the regional to know that is false.

I read back and your theory is sound but I still can't see it happening. You're taking advantage of a tournament rule not an original Yugioh one.

[iAmNateXero]

This is because you don't believe in how much skill is actually needed to play with this deck. There is so many rules you have to memorize, so may policies to uphold. For example, If i were to ask you "If a game ends in a Draw, who starts the next round?" You would probably say its randomized again right? Well that's not true. Who ever decide before decides again. Can you imagine what its like knowing that you have to play a person for 38 minutes (Because you need at least 2 to side deck your win condition) him constantly side decking trying to take you out, then for him to win 1 game.

 

Do you realize how much harder the game just got for you? That means at the end of 40 minutes, you would have had to have more LP than him, THEN do it all again, because in a tournament its never best out of 3, its the first to win 2 games.

So the person who did a Video Game test did the right thing

Wrong' date=' the person tried to simulate an IRL situation through a half @$$ piece of technology. There are some things you just have to familiarize yourself with, and this is one of them. The only thing a video game can teach you is what i've stated in the second sentence of my first post in this thread.

If you are still within the initial 40 minutes of play, its going to draw.

 

Need I remind you that that 'half @$$ piece of technology' was programmed by Konami, the people that currently publish the card game (and as far as I know, the rulings for the cards)?

 

The issue here should NOT be tournament rulings, because those are for TOURNAMENTS -- the issue should be the CARDS THEMSELVES. You're talking about whether you win after time is up. This thread was made asking about whether Self-Destruct Button, when used in chain to an Emergency Provisions, would (by resolving before the Provisions' Life Point gain effect) leave you with a win due to the opponent having 0 Life Points and you having 1000+ due to the Emergency Provisions.

 

Which has been proven false by the game's interpretation of the cards and standard win conditions.

 

So might I ask you to please consider THE ORIGINAL TOPIC before shooting your mouth off about things that DON'T PERTAIN TO IT.

Stop getting so passionate about this topic and read the damn forum! You can win in that combo, but there is only one way. Just because the combo works in only one setting doesn't mean it doesn't work. Live outside the box a little! The initial method of a video game failed, that doesn't mean to stop conducting research, it means try every method.

End-of-Match Procedure

 

When time is called at the end of a round' date=' the current turn of each game that’s still in progress is completed. If a winner is not determined by the end of that turn, play will continue for an additional three turns, starting the count with the opponent’s turn. After the additional three turns, play will stop, and the Match winner will be determined by the following process:

 

• If a winner has not been determined by the end of the additional three turns, the player with the greater Life Point total wins the game. If both players’ Life Points are equal, play continues until the first change in Life Points, at which point the player with the higher Life Point total is the winner. Always resolve all effects that are already on the chain before comparing the players’ Life Points.

 

After the winner of the game in progress has been determined, a player wins the Match if he or she has more game wins than the opponent. If both players have an equal number of game wins, they will start a new game. This game will last for a maximum of four turns, two for each player. Side Decks may not be used before starting this game. At the end of the fourth turn, the player with the greatest Life Point total wins the Match. If the Life Point totals are equal, continue play until the first change in Life Points. Always resolve all effects that are already on the chain before comparing the players’ Life Points.

1)Don't make a move for 40 minutes

2)Swords of Revealing Light

3)Burn/Heal

4)???

5)Profit!!!

6)Some sort of stupid ruling that negates this kind of strategy

 

You'd get a game loss for stalling.

 

Does laughing maniacally before each turn and monologuing about your childhood count as stalling?

 

not if you're a veitnam war veteran

You would still end up blowing your self up.
