Yu-gi-oh player here. And what TCG is that?

[Anonymous No.]

I have been playing Yu-gi-oh for almost 2 years now, but I'm kinda disappointed with the game with how fast it has become and how most players only netdeck top-tier decks instead of using their creativity. And then there's the announcement of a new anime with a brand new summoning mechanics and a Judai clone protag.

>>6747381
It's not a TCG. It's a non-trade card game called Tanto Cuore.
http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/65282/tanto-cuore
The moe-nazi set is also from the same company and follows the same basic rulesets as Tanto Cuore.

Also, they borrow heavily from an already existing card game called Dominion.

Why, do you have asshole friends who tries to cheat in card games or something?

Also, not all card games are meant to be played with another person. I bought this game ages ago, because I liked the theme:
http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/71721/space-hulk-death-angel-the-card-game

but was sorely disappointed to realize it isn't really suited for multiplayer, because the only thing you'll be doing is discussing plans together and perform the actions everyone agreed upon.

For those who think getting weeaboo card sleeves is a good idea, think again.

You might not want to use them if you play cardans frequently. They wear and tear easily, and it sucks to see them tearing apart one by one as time goes. Doesn't help that most of them go for USD$8-10 for 60 of them, too.

No, I've never caught someone in the act but there's always a sneaking suspicion when they do random explosive plays that statistically shouldn't be happening as often as they are, especially when they only have one copy of a particular card(s) in their deck

Like >>6747407 I've been kind of disappointed with YGO's players but still enjoy the game itself. As long as they're making interesting card effects and mechanics I'll keep playing

I'm not full-on tourneyfag, I care more about pulling off a big/elegant combo than just winning. But they won't even let me play with made up Touhou cards ;_;

I wouldn't either. Stop being such a weeaboo.

and if any of you here plays Weiss Schrawz, I'd like you tell you that your card game is terrible and you should feel bad for playing it. Go play a real card game like Magic. The mechanics for WS is terrible (wins/defeat are incredibly luck-based because you can cancel the damage you receive if you flip over any of the possible 8 cards in your 40-card deck when taking damage), they copy paste all their art from widely distributed animu posters/commercial art, and there's little to no interaction in the game (oh, it's your turn, go on, go play your dudes and attack and force my dudes to block. There's nothing I can do to interrupt your actions).

[Anonymous No.]

To keep the topic diverse: yes, I do enjoy board games, too. I've played Puerto Rico (pictured), Arkham Asylum (a Call of Cthultu board game), Runebound, Twilight Imperium and Starcraft (we never actually played it tho, rulebook was too complicated and thick and neither of us bothered to read through it).

Would love to hear recommendations for other good board games to try out with (in b4 I get none because /jp/ is filled with hikkis who never step out of their basement).

I have found the quality really varies, the first two I bought (red yoyoko and remi/sakuya) were really far apart in quality, yuyuko were so stiff it took a month or so of use before I could shuffle them properly, but the remi/sakuya ones tore pretty much immediately (then I just used them for drafts).

so far the only other ones that have ripped are the satori ones. also the white yuyuko ones have shitty corners that bend easily.

Brocolli sleeves are great, though. Like the K-on one pictured. (http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10096129)) They're thin and shuffles great and pretty durable (I still don't see any tearing on the edges on mine)

Yes, and they're crazy good at it. There's always a group of Japanese players who are always at big international tourneys, and most of the time they end up in the top 8/16's.

Pictured is one of them, Shouta Yasooka.

Dude can always be seen wearing a weeaboo shirt in the tourneys he attend.

Another famous player is Tomoharu Saitou

Dude even had his own card shop in Tokyo, though he was recently disqualified from the Hall of Fame and banned from playing sanctioned games for 18 months due to indirectly cheating in one of the high level tournaments he played.

Don't be so narrow-minded. There are lots of other good card games out there that are well-worth their price, especially Dominion. It helps that they're cheap, too (just a one-time purchase at $20 or lower), and you don't need to constantly buy more products to get the full experience.

>>6747895
Exactly. That's why they're so successful and are still in business after some 15 years (or was it more?).

Also, like personified girl-tanks in your game? Girl Arms War is a Taiwan-made 2-player combat card game featuring art by the well-known Taiwanese artist (the name escapes me at the moment) who popularized the whole military-weapon-are-girls thing.

More packs are opened because people want the chase mythics that are harder to get = More rares in circulation = There are more rare supplies than demand = prices for it drop.

Good rares never went for $1-2 back in the day, and like I said, the chase mythics fetches about the same price as chase rares back then, before the mythic rarity was introduced.

Well I play Yu-gi-oh or I used to then Synchro Summons ruined the game for me.

It was pretty nice for a while since my local comic book shop used to hold monthly tournaments for Yu-gi-oh and Magic, and I got to be a spoiler for the beginners tournament (Usually when there's a Stop-Having-Fun guy who tries to enter the tournament themselves or gets someone else to enter for them, I'm there to just wipe them out. If there wasn't anyone like that I just hammed it up for the kids and lost in the most melodramatic fashion I could, It was great for the kids and I usually got about $20 in cards for helping out). I loved making decks out of random cards though, I am to this day the only person who has ever tried to make a mermaid deck in Yu-gi-oh and it was a pretty good deck but I had to use some non-mermaid cards after a while.

I've been trying to get into L5R and the VS system but the communities for it are just dead where I live and the drive to the nearest community is just painful.

As a side note since /tg/ is pretty weird when you ask about card games that are not MTG, is the Chaotic card game officially dead? There's no new show coming out and the plans for the expansion are shuttered so I don't know if they planned to stop altogether or they're just gearing up for a relaunch.

While on this topic. how you guys use your foreign cards...

I got the translations from the official site, printed them onto small avery labels, and covered the Japanese text box with them. Then I put them in card sleeves so they shuffle nicely.

I felt bad about putting stickers on cards, but it is a huge help when introducing the game to other people. It is far less of a hassle than printing car translation reference sheets.

Actually Magi-Nation as a whole could have used more time to build itself up. I mean I was trying to replay the GBC game and Dear Lord was it a flying piece of crap.

Great story, funny dialogue all coupled with one of the worse stat management I've ever seen in a video game. Speed is a completely worthless stat, your monster goes when the game decides your monster will go, no life bars so you don't know how much damage till the monster dies and you have to memorize health, in addition to type battles, damage bonuses and everything else anyone would ever need to know to play, has to be memorized because the game was not going to tell you anything.

>>6749639
Actually the cartoon came out once before in 2007/8 (sorry fuzzy memory). It was followed by a relaunch of the card game.

To everyone in this thread, I highly recommend you check out the Tanto Cuare, Barbarossa, or Kunitori card games if you've played and enjoyed Dominion. They are all pretty much the same core game but with just slight variations in gameplay, so it makes pick-up-and-play extremely simple.

They're all extremely fast paced too, and once everyone in the group you're playing with has the majority of the cards memorized, you'll be on your next turn before you've even shuffled and drawn the next set of cards for your hand.
