In every series there's always those legendary/god card hybrid-like cards.
I can understand that every series has their own legendary/god cards, but I never saw them as that powerful compared to the God Cards. Yes, with the exception of their appearences, they are entirely different, but I always went for pure power over effects, and the actual effects of Obelisk was right in my alley.

There are a lot of cards that you can get for relatively cheap now, most of the older cards that people don't have are relatively cheap because of the originals being released in newer packs (IE Gemini Elf, Mechanical Chaser, etc). The card games all follow roughly same rules with a few acceptions, though I will agree that the Yugioh card games were more addictive then the pokemon card game.

Seems like a pretty bloated deck.


Wow, look at me. I'm probably coming off as a huge yugioh nerd right now.
When you are going through competitions, the banned/restricted cards are the only thing that can keep you above water at that time (referring more to the restricted cards), that being the reasons I focus on those cards, specifically the Exodia decks and God Card Decks.

We're all nerds.
