N00b Mistakes

[Zeppeli Gyro Supreme]

Do any of you guys remember any of the mistakes you used to make when you were younger and playing Yu-Gi-Oh? For those who say that they didn't, then you're either too old, too ready to lie to people, or just plain too something else.

 

I remember that I used to think that Secret Pass to the Treasures let me attack directly with all of my monsters. I also used to think I could Flip Summon a monster in Defense Position, and that you could set a Tribute Monster without tributes, but then it's destroyed after being attacked.

 

OH! And I also believed that Covering Fire let me copy the ATK of an opponent's monster for some reason.

 

I didn't have a rulebook, and sort of just made up rules based on the anime xD

[Tefached]

playing traps out of my hand right away....only for about the first 3 months of playing did i do that...

[Tickle Me Emo]

I remember when I thought Pyro Clock of Destiny skipped someones turn lol.

[Ultimate Ryan]

yes I used to think the stars multiply the ATK of the monster xD

[MarbleZone]

I used to think you could only activate Trap Cards during your opponent's turn, so at that time cards like Bark of the Dark Ruler seriously confused me.

[Tickle Me Emo]

thinking back the noobiest thing I ever did was probably thinking that if you attacked any light monster with any dark monster then the light monster would be destroyed before the battle.

[tonisanoob]

uuuuh starting with 7 cards then if you ran out of cards you drew a new hand

[cyberdude]

Uhh drawing and useing my whole deck from the start

[zelda_tp_fan]

I used to think:

 

that you could set monsters in attack mode

that a deck of over 50 cards was a good idea (I had the idea that the more cards you had, the better...)

 

... I'm sure that there were some other things that I did that was really noobish...

[Dragon Master]

I remember when I thought Pyro Clock of Destiny skipped someones turn lol.

 

ditto and i thought that u colud some lv 10 from my deck

 

but the funniest is when i just started playing i did not have a rule book or any thing i thought u can some over 15 at once on the field

[Silencerleader]

Ummm...tributing monsters from my hand to summon a monster that needed to be tributed.

[Big Bad Pennar]

a former but really ridiculous rule i had once was NO BANLIST, in addition, i used to think that the RFG was the graveyard on my first game (my first cards were cards that were benefited by RFG)

[CrabHelmet]

I tried to remove spells and traps with Nobleman of Crossout. Oh, and I thought Hamon was a good choice for a Gem Beast deck.

[Orochi]

i activated all my traps on a chain... and thought cyber dragon would be banned once...

[Flame Dragon]

Biggest nOOb thing I've ever done was giving Axe to Spirit Reaper. When it finally hit me as to what I did, I just wanted to hit myself.

[ender4449]

thought newotari had an effect (first month of the game being out) and that scapegoat could kill (fiber jar + 3 scapegoats + misunderstanding/misinterprintating = 64 scapegoats each at 50400 ATK)

[The Slime Lord]

HORUS and I were in a double-duel. I had the most n00bish turn ever. I forgot to draw, used Hammer Shot on HORUS' Gigaplant when I had a Banisher on my side of the field, and summoned Green Gadget and forgot to get a Red Gadget from my deck. This happened about.... 3 weeks ago at locals. :P

 

When I just started, I would normal summon ritual monsters without using the ritual spell card, normal summon fusion monsters from my hand, normal summon tribute monsters without tributing, playing with 2000 life points. Pretty much everything they did in Duelist Kingdom.

[HORUS]

Haha. Yeah, that was quite possibly the most brilliant move ever. And I didn't even notice it would have killed my Gigaplant. I thought it would have killed the dude's CyDra...

 

 

Haha, Normal Summoning Crab Turtle ftw.

[RedSceptile]

Maindecking Fusion Monsters. Your opponent letting you discard at any time, and drawing a new card. Polymerization was used to make made up cards (Gaia The Fierce Knight+Blue Eyes White Dragon for example)

 

There is a whole lot more, trust me.

[ShinobiDark72]

I thought You could normal summon anything without tributes.

When I found out about tributes, I thought Level 9 and up needed three tributes.

I basically copied everything they did in Duelist Kingdom and the beginning of Battle City.

Than I met My Uncle(who was 16-17 at the time) who knew the game inside and out.

Now, I'm sometimes noobish with certain rulings.

Yea like drawing during the battle phase?

[tonisanoob]

maindecking fusions yhea i remember that

 

playing traps liek spells

 

but then i always knew dark magician was crap :D

[Dark_Pride]

Me, placing Equip Spells over monster cards not in Spell & Trap Zone. I remembered about Sword Hunter equipping 6 monsters. Also, like in Forbidden Memories, I draw cards until I have 5 during my Draw Phase.

[Exiro]

Me' date=' placing Equip Spells over monster cards not in Spell & Trap Zone. I remembered about Sword Hunter equipping 6 monsters.

Yeah, I also thought something like that.

I thought the first equip spell is in the s/t zone behind it, and the other equip spells are just above the first one, because an equip spell is always behind the monster it is equipped to (That's what I used to think).

[Aelsthla-Mental]

I remember using Toon monsters like in the anime, 'i have a toon monster out, you can't destroy him except with your Toons!' It took a while of dueling for someone to point out my mistake strangely...

 

And something incredibly random was that for some reason i though "Ultimate Offering" allowed you to place monsters in the same zone and combined their attack :shock: Where that came from i have no idea.
