Dark Paladin's Yu-Gi-Oh! Dimension
The State of the Metagame Part III
Rebuilding the Game of Yugioh
3.06.06

Hello Pojo and Yugioh fans! I come to you today with the three finalists for my Create a Card contest. However, do not start voting yet, not until I have a picture for all three of the finalists. I am merely notifying you of the finalists.

Faith
Flame Sorcerer
Sacred Phoenix Mage of Destruction

IF THESE ARE YOUR CARDS, AND YOU HAVE NOT ENTERED A PICTURE, PLEASE DO SO AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Those are the finalists in NO particular order. Secondly, I've been asked to hold another contest, and since this is for you the fans, I will. More on that AFTER this contest is completed. Finally, I'd like to talk more about the State of the Metagame.

Expanding on my last article, I spoke on the problmes in the game.
This time, I'm going to talk about how to begin fixing the game. As stated, if you are fed up with certain card dominating and ruining the game...simply stop using them.

That's the biggest step right there. Begin finding cards to counter them. Nearly every card has a counter of some sort, believe it or not.
Try working against cards with things like Divine Wrath, that nifty little Counter Trap that negates the effect of an effect monster and destroys it (via a discard from you.)

Be creative. This is what your side-deck is for...to specifically counter threats you may and will find in your opponents decks.
Memorize and remember what people are playing against you. Then, go through your card folders and boxes and find said cards to help.

That's all I'm going to say for now, until my next topic on this. I'll be continuing to expand on this throughout the course of the upcoming months.

Feel free please to contact me with anything @tsearcy@lssu.edu YES, I DO take deck-lists, and I will do my best to help you with them.
Please, NO TRADITIONAL CHAOS DECKS!

You stay classy, Planet Earth :)
