Subject: Upperdeck Rant Rules and Regulations- YugiproJ
RANT!!!!!
Hey its me again!!! Did you all like my Harpy Lady Deck? I hope so its one of my favorites! NE ways no deck this time. I'm not speaking for every Yu-gi-oh Tournament but alot of you all out there need to get caught up on all the rules and regulations. The last tourney I attended , the judges were asking kids about certain rulings, WHats up with that? Upperdeck needs to get off there butts and make an attempt to clear up alot of the rulings that have been misleading people. The most common: Trap Hole. You all don;t know how many people play with
"Late" trap holes. (By late i mean 2 or 3 rounds after the monster is summoned.) I agree that the card is somewhat vauge but thats just the way it is. Trap hole must  be activated in response to a summon!! The makers of the game in japan intended for the card to work that way so get over it. I guess its just like us americans to go and change something! LOL But seriously Upperdeck needs to reword the card or post it on there site or something!! Another problem are all you lamer duelist who keep sending pojo your retard tips (including the late trap hole). It does'nt require much strategy for some of the tips you all post!!  For example: Summoned Skull + Sword of DD + Sword of DS = high attack poweer... Well duh geniuses !!  Another thing is Flip summoning!! The rule book states that a flip summon is switching a monster from face down defense mode to face up attack mode, so why do people continue to flip man eater bugs into face up defense mode to activate the effect!! Its right there in plain english : READ IT!!!  Upperdeck, from what I've heard from countless comic book/ game shop ownners is not taking this game very seriously. They are going to end up destroying the game here in the states. They have ignored countless emails from myself as well as a good number of store owners sanctioned for tournaments. Well enough of this rant i am sure you are tired of hearing it. Oh and one quick tip correction. Someone stated that there should be equal magic cards as trap cards.. ignore that. With a good majority of the better cards being magic you'll end up eliminating some of those good cards if you want to add traps! Try to play with at least 5-8 trap cards and about 13-15 magic cards! Most japanese decks do the same and they have a whole bunch of cards!! What else can I stress.. ring of magnetism cannot be euipped to face down cards or your opponents cards!! Lord of D. only protects dragons from targeting effects like :Change of Heart, Man eater bug, Soul Exchange etc.. It does not protect from non targeting cards like: Dark Hole, Mirror Force, Raigeki, Dragon Capture Jar etc... SO for all you dragon decks out there stop telling your friends that it does!!! I guess thats it I'm sure there are a Dozen more tips I could correct but that would take forever! Any questions or comments send them to JayC1883@aol.com not to POJO's!! Please don't bug them if you have a gripe with me! Thanx
