Subject: Strider's Top Ten Most
Overrated Cards
The MOST overrated cards in Yu Gi Oh
The following
are, in my opinion, the most overrated cards in the game. Many people use them
but I do not understand the practicality nor the usabilty of these cards. Many
of them are considered "broken" or a "staple." These are just my views and, in
no shape or form, represents the actual usefullness of the card. All cards are
in random order and are not ranked.
10. Sangan/WoTBF: Other than Exodia
decks, I do not like this card. It is a huge waste of space. It is basically a
one-for-one deal. So what if it thins out your deck by one card.
9.
United We Stand: I actually perfer Mage Power over this. With all the monster
removal currently avalible, United We Stand will most likely only get that 800
ATK boost. rarely do we two monsters on the field anymore.
8. Gemini Elf:
A 1900 ATK monster that has no effect? Being a spellcaster does not help it
either. Just too many monster run over it. Dark Elf (example), Goblin Attack
Force, and a powered up Bazoo can take the twins down.
7. Dark
Ruler: Ha Des: This monster cannot be special summoned period. Special
summoning is a vital part to the game and there are a lot of recursion cards.
2450 ATK is great for one tribute and the effect is amazing but you have to
normal summon it.
6. Injection Angel Lily: Imagine Lily being the only
card on your side of the field. In order to prevent any direct damage, you would
have to pay 2000 LP each time. Two attacks and you would pay, well, a lot.
Taking the direct damage would be more affortable. Lily vs. Kycoo & Gemini
Elf. You pay 2000 LP. His/her monster dies and takes 1600 LP. He/she attacks
again. You pay 2000 LP. He/She loses monster plus 1500 LP. You lost 4000 net
while opponent only lost 3100.
5. Magic Cylinder: Way too situational. It
is prone to M/T removal. I simply do not like this card. At the most, your
opponent may get 1800-2500 redirected damage yet his monster lives until the
next turn. You only get to stall for one turn and you opponent has an army of
monsters waiting for you.
4. Skull Lair: It is considered, argubly, the
"best" common. Upperdeck issued this as only a common for a good reason.
Although is can be great late in the game because of all the cards in your
graveyard, you have to realize how important the graveyard really is. With Fiber
Jar out, this card will see a lot less play.
3. Quiz/Question: How
forgetful do you think people really are? Maybe there are combos but I just do
not see it. Your opponent can simply use a card such as "lost." You would really
have to be careful summoning or setting your first monster since it will most
probably end up in your graveyard first.
2 Don Zurloog: So what? A
beefed up White Magical Hat. It is not deserving of being an ultra rare. I just
do not see the big deal about this card. It obviusly needs to be beefed up and
it cannot even attack under Gravity Bind.
1. Exiled Force : I just do not
like this card. Basically monster removal in monster form. You waste a summon
just to destroy a monster while a magic card can do the same thing and you can
still summon.
