silly idea: yugioh fandub that narrates the card games as though they're playing a really confusing MTG variant
@trwnh i think you have those the wrong way around
@trwnh i honestly have to completely disagree. there are at least six different types of summons in ygo, all of which have different rules; ygo has an annoying amount of card memory that mtg completely eschews; mtg doesn't usually print paragraphs and paragraphs of text on its cards
i guess it's just a matter of taste
@trwnh apart from all the cards that, again, have paragraphs of rules text you have to be very careful about reading, and all the cards that can only be special summoned under particular conditions...
idk. matter of taste, i guess.
@trwnh i would personally say mtg isn't that hard to learn, though there is a bit of a curve at the beginning, and skimming wiki articles that generally expect you to know how things work already isn't the best way to go about learning
but. mreh.
*headpats kas*
FWIW, does any of this matter when both games are prohibitively expensive at higher levels?
Can I re-create my old Maha Vailo/Ben Kei Equip deck in Duel Links? I've recently quit Shadowverse, and while it's very easy to have disdain for YGO, it's just as easy to be a stupid nostalgic sap.
Equip was never a competitive powerhouse by YGO standards, but I really liked the playstyle. My deck was stacked with all kinds of ridiculous Equip cards, too--Metalmorph, United We Stand (w/Scapegoat, of course), Mage Power, Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce, Shooting Star Bow - Ceal . . . even ran Metalizing Parasite - Lunatite, though that one was mostly just to show how dedicated I was to the Equip mechanic as a concept.
Anyway, it is cool that they had Maha Vailo for an event but disappointing that I missed the boat on that one. It was my favorite card to build around since I was but a child, clearly.
