Unless you can get 8s on the field easy otherwise, no I wouldn't think so.
[/quote]

Considering a staple is, by definition, a card that can -and is- played in every Deck, things as specific as Rank 8s are definitely not.

It's not staples as in "you have to run these extra deck monsters". it's staples as in "if you can play these, these are usually the best choices for this format".
[/quote]

See above.

Because really, those are the best choices in Advanced anyway.

Or, you guys could use the real definition, AKA a card run in almost every deck, and stop misusing terms =/

You could say a Rak 8 Staple, because that covers a staple for decks that can R8, but you can't say a general staple

Oh boy. It sure is hurting a whole lot for you guys to have to use more than 1 brain cell to comprehend what it means, isn't it?

Nah, you should just use common sense, seeing as I haven't seen you use it in weeks. Breakthrough Skill should be a good example of that.

"I disagree with your opinions, and therefore you are a moron." Great work.

You just said that to me about the usage of the word "Staple". Get your hypocritical head out of your ass =D

@Breakthrough Skill - I should probably start testing it. I really looks good on paper, but actual testing is something we need to do. And I'm with Black on this one, which is why I kinda cleared the whole Extra Deck and am starting from scratch.

So I repeat these as staple Extras?:

Zenmaines
Maestroke
Black Corn

Arguably:
Black Rose Dragon
Stardust Dragon

Other than those, I've had techs.

No, but you never get a single thing I say to you anyways, so I won't bother explaining beyond this: I was not saying you only use 1 brain cell to think. I was saying that you don't want to have other people use a word in a slightly different way because then they would not be using it your way which is too easy for you. It's not like jumping from "must use" to "extremely useful" is a huge step.

Basically what you do is tell people that because they don't think the way that they do that they have to change it, whilst I am saying that people can stay with their own definitions instead of having to conform to what someone else is saying.

That's not my way of using it. Thats the correct way of using it. There's no such thing as using it a "different way" ecause that way is wrong. A staple refers to something almost every deck can or will use. There is almost nothing staple in the Extra Deck as it changes deck by deck. You never get a single thing I say to you, so again, quit being such a senseless hypocrite who shoves his opinion as much as you act like I do, kthx.

And my point is proven. Goodbye folks.

See?

Hypocritical as all hell. "My way is right yours isn't shut up" is no different than you said I behaved. You really have no common sense at all, do you?

Yo can't change the definition of a word just because you want to. It doesn't work that wa.

The word "staple" can mean whatever we want it to mean. In this case, it's a list designed to suggest cards for people to play that are very useful in this format.
[/quote]

I do see the logic in this... But it's clear enough that he wanted to use the actual definition, and not what you're saying.

Did you know that words have different definitions to everybody, because words, while supposedly set in stone by things such as dictionary, are actually given definition by the people themselves? Did you know that over time the definitions of words can severely change to mean something that they previously did not, just because people that is how people use them?

Words are not robotic, words are dynamic.

Instead of being hurtful to the conversation, how about we just be helpful? As I suggested much earlier, Karma Cut, Phoenix Wing Wind Blast, and of course Raigeki could be useful for removal. Karma Cut could be side material as well due to its grave banishing effect. Against Machinas or Dark World (though we haven't seen Dark World up to this point, though it's not surprising), as well as a number of other decks could be slaughtered by that.

Chain Disappearance is also a good side card.

Yes, we each have a definition of a word in our head, but the static definition is the real one, regardless of what it means to us.

You can tack on words and phrases like "Personal", "Rank 8", but the actual definition of the word is unchanging, a t least for now. Terms don't suddenly change, they change over time. You used the word staple incorrectly, them proceeded to insult someone who didn't use it your way, only to point the finger at the person saying you were wron and saying they did it, too. Get over yourself, hypocrite.

Actually, it's kind of how the words bounce and spin are used, if you think about it. I don't think you'd get much from literally spinning a card.[quote name='slayer_supreme' timestamp='1353088148' post='6071121']

Was about to point out the irony in not actually contributing to the conversation, but then ninja edit happened [s]to the knee[/s].

Maestroke, Utopia, and Zenmaines are the main three. Since they can remain on the field for that turn waiting to be played, and still end up being of some use other than that. Black Corn, of course, doesn't need to attack the turn he is played. I also play Steelswarm Roach since you usually make him during the End Phase anyhow.

Acid Golem is pretty painful unless you're using Golem Swap, so I wouldn't recommend that. You would be better off detaching to make Leviathan Dragon 3000.
