I started off collecting the Spanish Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon pack when it was first released and collected Japanese cards from an old card shop in Amityville, NY back in 2004. I didn't play in middle school but picked back up around the second half of high school and played until prior to graduation. I took a couple years off and played in community college then took a break for a couple years. I played casually for a little and don't really don't play these days, but I do keep up with the meta and occasionally collect my favorite cards and rarities. It's quite fascinating looking back and seeing how much the game itself has changed. Have you guys ever played or had cards/watched the show? Let me know down in the comment section. | | 1 |  | Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here
My only fully built deck right now is tournament legal Ancient Gears. They're pretty consistent and are only meant to hit the opponent really fucking hard (you can put out close to 20,000 direct damage just with Ancient Gear Megaton Golem using three Ancient Gear Golems and using Limiter Removal Alone). I've always liked their designs and game-mechanic and are a pretty solid rogue strategy. | | 2 |  | Megadeth
Rust in Peace
Synchrons. I've played these guys since the Quickdraw Dandywarior days and have always been my favorite deck. They can be inconsistent at times, and they've had some rough ban list hits, but the power ceiling of the deck is incredibly high. Also my first competitive deck. | | 3 |  | Judas Priest
Stained Class
Six Samurais. I played these when they were at their peek prior to the XYZ era, and they were the deck I've had the most success with. That being said, I got bored with them fairly quickly and sold the deck as a whole. They're still pretty good these days. | | 4 |  | Eminem

Vayu Turbo. This made a top 8 back in 2010 when Blackwings were enjoying their last reign of terror at the YCS level, and I was hooked on the concept. A graveyard heavy deck utilizing dark warriors to fill the graveyard and spawn big boards. It was a cool concept, and it was consistent if linear to a fault (it made the same plays every time). Lavalval Chain was a terrific addition to the deck before it got banned, and it was pretty powerful (if not played) when Dark Warriors and Gouki were the top decks last year for a little while. Cool deck and the one I played the second most to Synchrons. | | 5 |  | Ariana Grande
Dangerous Woman
Grandsoil Psychics. Jeff Jones was a genius and made it to second place with this midgame styled deck. Was a load of fun to build when Redox was legal and prior to the banning and errata of Grandsoil. Also has my favorite boss monster: Ultimate Axon Kicker, a.k.a, Ultimate Ass Kicker! | | 6 |  | Bathory
Blood Fire Death
Gravekeeper's. The only stun/anti-meta deck I ever played. It was very solid prior to 2013 and recently got new support. | | 7 |  | Death
Symbolic
Agents. Now this deck was a load of fun and made some really good plays! Archlord Kristya is still a really powerful floodgate monster. | | 8 |  | Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin IV
Other decks I played/experimented with: Flamvells, Lightsworns, Archfiends (briefly), rank 3 spam, Stardust Assault, Dragunities (fun deck but the frognarch matchup was awful), Herald of Perfection, Chaos Dragons, Naturias, Worms (a chaos build that kinda worked), Ice Barriers (forgnarch style, it kinda worked), Raidraptors, pure Blackwings, Cyber Dragons, ABC's, etc. | |

01.23.19 | I was really into it when I was younger, but I kind of stopped playing it after one of the local card game shops closed and I graduated high school not too long after. That was like five years ago. Even before I stopped completely my interest was kind of fading. Had some great times though. | StrikeOfTheBeast
01.23.19 | That's basically how I felt throughout my time except during high school. You get an adrenaline rush getting back into the game, but it doesn't last very long. However, I'm very comfortable as a spectator who is open to playing every now and again. My wallet thanks me too. lol | Zig
01.24.19 | Man, I used to own Yugioh cards and play with my friends. Even played a Forbidden Memories video game back in the day. Good times. | insomniac15
01.24.19 | Heavy nostalgia after reading this. I spent so much time collecting, watching and playing the games with my friends or on my computer when I was a teenager. | BerryGarlicia
01.24.19 | Ancient Gears are sick, I used them and red eyes when I still had interest in it | StrikeOfTheBeast
01.24.19 | @Berry I'd swear Red-Eyes is a case study of bi-polar through children's card games; it doesn't know what it wants to be. | Meridiu5
01.24.19 | I spent years on that game. Was some pretty good times. Was definitely the fastest-paced card game out there. My highlight was when Labyrinth of Nightmare first came out. Got a magic cylinder in my first pack. My best deck was an archfiend deck. | StrikeOfTheBeast
01.24.19 | Awesome pull dude. Fast is an understatement; the link era is basically either 'break my board or pass' or play the grind game with tortoise strategies. | EvoHavok
01.24.19 | I've been having a heavy Yu-Gi-Oh nostalgia lately and just watched that 2016 movie with the original characters yesterday. Now this thread comes up, lol. I still own all my cards, used to play a lot a decade ago...

01.24.19 | Used to play Dark World decks when Dueling Network or whatever was still a thing | splinter
01.24.19 | my favorite deck is lightsworn and I am unbeaten with it since 2016 | splinter
01.24.19 | I made 1 duel since then | DamnVanne
01.24.19 | I played for the first year and half the game was out. The reason I quit was because there wasn’t nearly enough variety to make the game exciting and I was already pretty big into MTG. I’m sure that, now 10+ years later, the game is fun as hell. I should see if any of the game shops near me have yugioh nights. The mechanics and the art were pretty cool | GhandhiLion
01.24.19 | Card games on motorcycles [2] | DamnVanne
01.24.19 | I ram we the dungeon dice monsters game they played on the cartoon being way cooler than the card game; did they make a good playable version of that yet? | StrikeOfTheBeast
01.24.19 | Surprised GetLow isn't here tbh | Feather
01.24.19 | I was briefly addicted to that Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel app and konami not allowing me to get my stuff back after I deleted and redownloaded the app was the best thing that has ever happened to me.
I absolutely loved the actual card game in middle school, but was never hyper competitive. | Feather
01.24.19 | @StrikeOfTheBeast there is an elite crew of us on this site that use yu-gi-oh! avitars. Feel free to join :-) | StrikeOfTheBeast
01.24.19 | Yeah I've seen a lot of yous. I might use one in the future. I was thinking like Dark Armed Dragon because it's one of my favorite cards and designs. | Feather
01.24.19 | and.......... none of us will even realize you have a yu-gi-oh avi lol you're gunna have to go a bit farther back haha | StrikeOfTheBeast
01.24.19 | The others one that come to mind are Chaos Emperor Dragon or Black Luster Soldier, the former got an errata that nerfed the card, and the latter is tournament legal at three copies. | Feather
01.24.19 | and...... I know both of them! I actually had 2 lusters envoy of the beginning at one point. That was right when I was pealing away from yu-gi-oh! Welcome to the club. | StrikeOfTheBeast
01.24.19 | \m/ | bloc
