Favorite Trading Cards

I had 2000 yugioh cards Had all of the elemental monsters all legendarys

But i didnt have polymerization
Man i needed that card!
And i still do collect them

2000, lol. Lord I might have tat in one box. I didn't buy a lot though, people just gave me tons of them cause I liked them. I have a ton of cards that make little kiddies drool. Can you say Winged Dragon of Ra?

We had the same problem when Pokemon cards existed. People were getting scammed in trades and bawwing later. I was always good at scamming. But I didn't do much of that in Pokemon.
I still have all my cards. There are a FUCKTON.
Pokemon was and is definitely the most fun card game.

Then there was Digimon. Awesome cards. Not necessarily a fun card game, but the TV show was way better than Pokemon's shit. Not much to say about it. I have a lot of the cards, but nowhere near what I got in Pokemon cards.

Then there was Yu-Gi-Oh. I can proudly say I never spent a penny on a Yu-Gi-Oh card, nor have I ever watched the show. Some guy gave me a card for free - it was some turtle with an island on its back. I traded it for two cards, traded those for two cards each, and so on and so forth, massively expanding my card collection (scamming?). I now have a good 10 pages of cards that I got for free, from trading that single island turtle.
And I have no clue how to even play the game, lol.

I've still got my pokemon cards too, this big ass like 5 lb book. I look at it fondly. Ah, best story. When pokemon cards hit and Charzard was the best thing on the face of the planet I pulled him in my very first pack and then kept him in the starter box in my room. Then one day my mother threw the box and Charzard out and I like flipped I mean ballistic. My little 8 year old mind was not able to understand how you could throw out a Charzard. I still laugh when I think about it.

Digimon was epic. The show was way better than pokemon. The cards were cooler too but I never figure out how to play the digimon game or pokemon it was obscenely complicated.

You don't know how to play yugioh? You simply have to know like 4 thing and read the text on the cards to play. Unlike pokemon and digimon where you had to memorize the rule book and know trig and calculus. D and D is simpler than pokemon cards I think.

My adult mind is not able to understand how you can throw out a card that was worth $300 at one point, and easily worth $100. I'd have bitchslapped my momma.

Pokemon was easy. It was a lot like the game. The new one has some shit like Pokemon Body or some shit that just looks confusing. I have no clue how to play it anymore. I remember using beads to keep track of damage. Awesome.

I wanted to, man.


Damage counters. The blue and yellow ones. Dude remember the first movie? Remember the Mew card? My uncle took me and my cousin and we couldn't figure out how we wold get the card since my uncle had ordered the tickets online, then half way to the theater he reach up to his visor and pulled out two cards and said "Choose your weapon." Had my prepubescent body and mind know what oragsim was that's what would have called it.
