OSHI-- Really? I've been in the Your Deck section ever so rarely. That's obviously why I never saw it. And I spent all this time...

To be fair, that topic's horribly outdated.

Also, as an active TCG/Your Deck/Player of the game, I feel you're really mis-using the word 'common'
BESD - Blue Eyes Shining Dragon
BOOTE - By Order of the Emperor

Catas - Malevolent Catastrophe
CD/CyDra - Cyber Dragon [b]Only CyDra is used[/b]
CED - Chthonian Emperor Dragon
CS - Chaos Sorcerer [b]It's just called 'Sorc'[/b]
Chimera - Chimeratech Overdragon [b]Overdragon or sometimes 'Chimeratech' is used more (Although Chimeratech is usually Fortress)[/b]

That's just from the first three letters. Seriously, those aren't used.
