"Yu-Gi-Oh! is a game of almost boundless strategy"

[CrabHelmet]

Post hilarious quotes from Metagame.com here. Because stupidity is far funnier when it comes from a site that hordes of morons seem to worship as the Card Game Bible than when it comes from genericallynamednewbieyugifan625 on the YCM forums.

 

The topic title is from a recent article by Ryan Murphy.

This is not a game of luck. Rather' date=' it is one based entirely around having the right card at the right time.[/quote']

 

When I made a serious topic on it, not many people saw the lulz of this quote.

Lawl, I remember that topic. Everyone kept trying to paint that quote as some wise statement about card advantage or something like that.

 

Here's a good one:

 

Let’s say your hierarchy of values consists of the following in order of importance:

 

1) Work.

2) School.

3) The Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG.

 

Work is very important in this hierarchy of values. More of your time will go into work by default. The minimum is probably 40 hours per week (sometimes more)' date=' so that puts a strain on your time as it is. School is second in your value hierarchy so you’ll want to devote a decent amount of time to it, but not as much as work. Let’s say 10–20 hours a week: almost half as much as a full-time job. Your third highest value is the game you play. After allocating "x" amount of hours to work and school, whatever’s left over is for the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG.[/quote']

 

Granted, the whole article was bizarre, but this particular section was especially funny.

Lmfao! yeah, that's a good one.

Bryan Camareno's 'philosophy' is very interesting and stuff, but sometimes he forgets that he needs to take into account the limits of us humans.

Seriously, I cannot figure what you're trying to say.

Any article involving lightsworn. <_<

 

The trick to beating the Stardust/Colossal pincer is to take down the Dragon: you need to off Stardust first, because if you don’t, it protects Colossal Fighter from everything else. You run plenty of answers to the Fighter. The Dragon is the real bottleneck, and in current builds of Lightsworn there just aren’t enough ways to eliminate it. Worse yet, your best options (Judgment Dragon and Honest) are multi-taskers with higher purposes. Judgment Dragon should be a win condition, not a removal card, and Honest should be used to defend your smaller Lightsworn, especially in the early game where you can build on the momentum it generates.

 

So there are two ways to get rid of the Dragon more consistently. The first was originally proposed to me by Jerome several months ago, when he played a build with three copies of Ehren, Lightsworn Monk and multiple copies of both Book of Moon and Enemy Controller. Paired with Ehren, either spell is enough to send Stardust right back to the Extra deck, but even without her, those spells let Jain, Lightsworn Paladin, Celestia, Lightsworn Angel, or Wulf, Lightsworn Beast take Stardust in battle. Both come with a lot of added bonuses too, as they’re each chainable and high-utility.

 

However, this isn’t the most interesting option in my mind. Instead, a new and completely disregarded card might just be the key to the best Lightsworn build ever.

 

Yes, I Really Am Talking About Lightsworn Sabre!

---^ he was dooign fine untill the very last effing line -.-'

 

also wiki > metagame

 

but on a side note they did try to justify gb octavius as a good card...

also wiki > metagame

 

It's not THAT bad.

Rose, Warrior of Revenge's entire article. It's just an embarrassment.

 

The requisites for playing Rose' date=' Warrior of Revenge are simple. Take this simple quiz to find out if it’s right for you!

Rose Qualification Quiz:

-Are you running Reinforcement of the Army?

-Do you want to summon a Synchro monster?

 

If you answered "yes" to either or both of those questions, then you shouldn’t leave the Sneak Preview until you have at least a playset of Rose, Warrior of Revenge. [/quote']

 

Edit: I couldn't let this one slip by either:

 

Similarly' date=' Celestia, Lightsworn Angel may remove cards from the opposing field, but she involves trading one Lightsworn for another instead of just playing two Lightsworn. It’s fine if you’re tributing a spent Ryko that’s not going to do any extra damage, but for the most part I feel that having a second monster on the field is nearly always the correct strategy.[/quote']

 

Oh hey, Bestiati + 1 random Gladiator beast is always the correct strategy over just tagging them out for Gyzaurs, mirite?

*uses Monster Reborn on topic*

 

The answer is that some players build their decks with winning the game in mind.

 

Just some players' date=' right? >_>

Metagame is less wrong than Wiki. However, it causes more damage; nobody takes anything the Wiki says without a grain of salt, but a lot of players consider Metagame's text to be Holy Indisputable Word of God.

That las quote is taken pretty out of context. Reading the actual article, it's clear he means "producing OTKs" when he says "winning the game."
