@ForTheWinTCG For standard hand traps, you want 3 copies of Fuwalos, 3 copies of Ash, 1 Maxx c (this card wins the game alone and should be banned but it has a 97% play rate so u should too). Then you can try like 2 copies of Nibiru. For breakers, I recommend 3 copies of Forbidden droplet

First time you try to play this TODAY, you'll get overwhelmed, blame the meta, blame the other player, blame the mechanics, etc. It's frustrating. Then you keep playing and everything starts to click. It's a constant puzzle you try to solve & when you do, it's highly satisfying.

Just seen all the message requests from YGO players offering help and advice, I've gotten back to them and will try and get back to more if they come! I've learned a lot already about the meta game, hand traps, board breakers and it's fighting-game like play. It's been fun!

@gentrum_ Got it, I'm quite used to that in the pokemon tcg as well to be fair. The games aren't as short but bricking is bricking. Thanks again for all the info, you've helped a tonne! Gonna look into draco 😁

@ForTheWinTCG as much as i do love the gameplay, i will say that especially early on some losses will be *really* frustrating, because sometimes you don't openany interaction and your options are to watch your opponent perform a youtube combo or scoop, esp in a Bo1 format like master duel

@gentrum_ No worries at all I appreciate all the help! So is ygo the meta kind of like 1 player trying to execute a set of combos and the other trying to prevent that, and vice versa?

@ForTheWinTCG i know that (myself included ofc) ygo players on twitter have a proclivity towards defensiveness and being kind of miserable, but i hope you are able to talk to some creators or people at your local lgs. most people not on twitter are very excited to help someone learn

@Rhymestyle I'm just now learning about the meta cards, with hand traps and all that. It looks like a fun back and forth and a cool change of pace from the linear play of pokemon. Just trying to figure what deck is competitive but doesn't require as much chaining so I can ease in to it.

With that said @ForTheWinTCG, I do recommend finding a deck that seems fun and try it again properly. Figure out how that specific deck clicks and how it counters other decks and try again. I bet you'll end up enjoying it way more. The game is way different than it was 20y ago.

@ForTheWinTCG One Pokémon TCG player to another: would you like some help getting over a bit of the initial Yu-Gi-Oh! learning curve? It’s such a fun and rewarding game once you have a handle on it.

I have never felt so unwelcome to a community. I was genuinely becoming interested in researching Yu-Gi-Oh and getting involved but I've seen more than enough closed-mindedness and defensive to not want to be a part of it.

@TeamAPS I'll bring my umbrella! Also, I've been enjoying your discussion vids recently even though kost of the time I have no idea what's being talked about. That said it's been helping me understand the history of the game. Keep it up 🙏

I've seen a lot more helpful replies pop up now. Toxic side of the community aside, It's nice to see more people offer to help me understand the modern game and even coach. And yes, I now know DM is bad so I'll see if I can play something better.

@OomfOfAnOomf To be honest I did a terrible job in showing that I actually wanted to learn the game and was just frustrated with how much I had to learn to play the modern game. I can see now my tweets just seem like "I don't like this, so game bad". Which wasn't my intention.

@ForTheWinTCG glad to see someone actually trying to get into the game. the yugioh fandom on twitter usually gets defensive because of constant ragebaiting and bad faith criticisms from players of other card games and former yugioh players.

@ForTheWinTCG this is what I run in real life btw! I got really great result at local so I hope when Curtain get into MD people can enjoy playing Dark Magician as a competent Deck too. It's not tier 1 but it's good enough that you can compete.

@redelecbeanz That's what I'm hoping, seems like a deck that I need to look at when I understand the game better

@ForTheWinTCG As a forever Dark Magician fan, you’ll be able to come back to it and build a deck that can at least hold its weight in ranked and have some fun playing it :)

@ForTheWinTCG If you already feel burned by the community and don't want to even bother, totally fair. I'll simply leave you with this. It's the Dark Magician deck I've been playing for fun on ranked. If you see this and are curious how it works, again, feel free to DM. I'd be happy to chat.
