Response to: Things Concerning Yu-Gi-Oh!-TheProphet


i'm not bashing you, i jsut thought everyone should
know, that your "tip" is full of items that can and
will be proven wrong and please, i know its hard, but
please do not use the B word even in a quote, children
to read this page, and we do not have to help them
learn naughty words, (they should take the time learn
them on their own, just like I had too >:)

OK, you obviously dont know this so i'm going to point 
something out to you, this is not to insult you or 
anything just to point out why Konami does the whole 
different translation thing. 1. The Rarity Changes: 
When certain cards came out in Japan everyone had one 
and it overpowered gameplay, everone complained that 
every deck was looking the same, and they tried to fix 
this problem by moving certain cards into heavier rarity.

2. The name changes/ artwork changes.
A. There are a group of people who do testing to see
which names sound better in english, there are
hundreds of people involved in these tests, and they
change them according to get what gets the best
response.
B. There are these people called lawyers who are paid
grand amounts of money in order to deal with problems,
and as most people know, the best way to deal with a
problem is to stop a problem from ocuring. These
peopel change names so that soccer moms all over the
nation do not sue them for everypenny they have,
and/or have the cards stopped being printed.
(I know and dont worry, everyone hates them too.)

I would send you a copy of the reasons fusions work,
but i will just send you a reference to the POJO june
5th CCG tip sick of the fusion and rituals getting
bashed. it has many counterpoints to your arguement.
(i also sortof wrote it)

The whole thing about card advantage, never use
pokemon as an example, if you are in a card shop they
will laugh at you and taunt you. It was and still is a
terrible cardgame (waits for hatemail) if anything
compare it to something someone actually plays, like
magic. Besides that , thw whole restricted thing is
for everyones own good, haveing three monster reborns
in someone's deck would ruin the game, because there
is a good chance everyturn there would be a monster on
the field. as for the rarity in question. Here's the
problem with your arguement. the first cards you
named:
Upstart Goblin, Painful Choice, Pot of Greed, Card
Destruction
were all deemed down to one for different reasons.
here are those reasons:

Upstart goblin: has a nasty little japanese combo
everone will know about withing the next 2 sets (no
i'm not gonna tell you what it is) AND it is an
automatic 1 card draw it no drawbacks for YOU.

Painful choice:
5 cards from your deck and one goes to your hand, you
choose the cards that will be used. 5 cards from your
deck gives you a card advantage, you were at 40 now
your at 35 (actually if you want to go deep into it,
your actually at 34 and moving down to 30) more than
one copy makes exodia decks almost unstoppable.

pot of greed:
2 cards no drawbacks, 3 would equal a total of 6 extra
cards from your deck: (only an idiot cant figure this
one out)

card destruction: if you load your opponents hand and
play this card you can potentially deck him out in 2
turns with 3 of these things. also getting a whole new
hand is a very, useful trick that should only be able
to be used once of twice in a game.

Now as for you other cards you listed, (graceful
charity, Airknight Parshath, Masked Sorcerer, Jar of
Greed, Appropriate) each one lets you get 1 card at a
cost. these costs are:

Graceful Charity: lose 2 cards gain 1
Reason it is restrited to 2: Still not quite sure,
should be resticted to 1 for the same reaon painful
choise is, will be in the future.

AirknightParshath: Tribute one monster, and
successfully attack something that is not stronger
that he is.

Masked Sorcerer: attack your oppnent's life points,
and pray he isnt killed off in the next turn.

Jar of greed: has to sit of the field for at least one
turn.

Appropriate: hope your opponent palys a draw card, and
doesnt remove this from the field

Your arguements are flawed, at best, when put up
against these facts.

Your exodia arguement has one major flaw (and the
paragraph has a laughable idea.) How many decks do you
know actually play Delinquent Duo, Confiscation, The
Forceful Sentry, and Card Destruction, maybe 1 if your
lucky, (besides you left out my favorite exodia killer 
Exchange). The point is they have stratgies set up specificallty 
to stop these cards.

as for you idea on playing respectplay, and EYE OF
TRUTH: noone plays these cards for very good reason,
they are wastes of space and never stay on the field.
eye of truth is an especially bad idea.

and i hate to break it to you, but usually they
already have 5 monsters in the graveyard to use that
card.

nice job by the way saying twin-headed behemoth isnt
that great without givign us a reason.

as for you discussion on godcards: I will not even
address the subject anymore, its an old subject get
over it.

I will quote you yourself:
What is it with bashing other people's tips on the
tips page? It's called
"CCG Combos, Tips, and Strategies." Bashing other
people's tips does not
fit in with that. Rants don't either, but at least
rants can be fun to read
sometimes. It's quite obvious that those who bash are
just doing so for
lack of anything intelligent to say."

you obviously do not have a very good memory, becasue
you had just gotten finished bashing a few cards
before, with reasons that were not very well thought
out. and everyone has a chance to state their opinion,
it just so happens your opinion as well as many others
can and have been proven wrong,

I will leave you with this, you said:
Even Skull
Servant will be somewhat playable once Multiply comes
out (play Multiply,
equip United to Skull Servant). Until then, you'll
have to use it with
Scapegoat instead.

multiply ONLY works with Kuriboh, and if he is on the
field skull servant cant be played that turn anyway.

ok, there it is, a perfectly logical nonbashing way to
disprove your arguements. Have a nice day,

questions comments or tweaks?
