1000 Life Points is really nothing outside of the anime, so why aren't 3 ran in every deck? Discuss.[/center]

An 11000 vs 8000 duel is a fair trade for a 37 card deck.
...right?

Of course it is, for doing so makes your opponent's Life Points becomes over 9000, which will pressure them to having to live up to such a meme, thus could break their strategy completely. But I guess it'd be a fair trade. Not entirely sure, but in my opinion, I'd be okay with that trade off.

I always run this at 3, and pot of duality at 3.

The life point difference doesn't matter, since having a 34 card deck is so much faster you end up winning even easier

But that means 3000 more Life Points to wipe out, along with 3 turns not being able to Special Summon.

I look at it this way: if I can deplete my opponent's resources and build my own so as to build a big enough card advantage, it doesn't matter how many life points my opponent has, I still win the game. I try to build up a card advantage before I execute an attack, so 3000 points only buys my opponent 1 extra turn at most. I could see how it might seem like a big deal if I were to slowly chip away damage, card by card, but that's just not how the game works in this meta. Chances are if you've gotten to the point of winning, an extra 3000 points won't make a difference, barring a lucky top deck.

Or, look at it this way. How many times have you won the duel where you just BARELY wiped out your opponent's life points? And how many games have you won where you could have swung for another 2000+ damage? How many times have you outplayed your opponent, but they came back and won the game with 100 points left? I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but, to me at least, it happens so rarely that it's not worth it to NOT run goblin

If this gets popular enough, I'm siding this:
