    60 card decks are for noobs. Anybody would tell you that. Somebody obviously hasn't been playing the meta...

    And flexibility? Really now? That's the whole problem with 60 card decks...You usually can't draw what you need...Going over 40 alone is risky...

    Thats not necessarily true.
    n 40 card decks you usually only have 2 copies of your best cards,Tops. But in 60 you can have 3, It increase your chance to draw it. Riku runs like a 60 Exodia deck and he hardly ever loses.

    Theres nothing wrong with the Crystals! They are really good cards if you know how to use them! And my decks (DN and INR) has more then 40 cards and they are great.
    @Terra Yeah I've dueled Ren and he's a good duelist and he uses a 60 card deck.

    I disagree with all of you. higher card counts do, yes, have the ability to do more, and are thus more flexible, but at the same time it dilutes their power. Most good decks work entirely towards one goal. Each card is selected for how it will contribute to the flawless, and quick, execution of one or two perfect plays. Your best cards will be run as high as you can because you need them to win, and the rest will support the use of those cards.

  6. Because this makes you plan ahead for not drawing a "Desired card" instead of relying on a small set of strategies that can go wrong at any moment, and "noob" is a very overly used and not even in the correct terms it was created in anymore. "Noob" is the term of someone new to model making. And "Noob" just lowers the quality of your post unless you are quoting the other person. Players who are so closed minded as to neglect the possibility of a non 40+ deck. I use to limit myself to a 40 deck, but no mater what i did i would loose then i went up in numbers and i started to win, because of the fact a narrow minded deck although more focused, can be essay counteracted because of this "inferior style" so long as you know what your doing. the more balance you put to thees decks, the better they are, and they provide the extra strategies players with open minds use. Insulting someone is not quite an effective attack anyway. it deals 0000 attack damage. My friends, who has won many tournaments always used a 47/8 card deck and he has won agents may players. another friend of mine has 6o cards, but is just as focused and achieves the same goals of a 40. I will admit, sometimes people mistake something that is used by younger generation players, the reason they dont work well is because of the skill put into a deck. i have a set up where i get red eyes blue eyes and 3 syncros on the field in one turn without going beneath 50 and beat out someone with a 40 card deck when he had if i am remembering right 32 cards in his deck. 40 cards is not always the way to go.
    ...But, 40 cards is a very useful set up as well because of quick strikes and tighter bound cards, but i digress, i do not believe that my style is 100 percent better, it works with the way the duelist plays. i feel more comfortable and powerful with my 60 because its setup is right for me! if you prefer the 40 and nothing else besides side deck, that's fine too. Next time, Play versus someone with a high end deck that knows the way they work and see how the battle runs and their style of fighting BEFOREjudging something as inferior.

    kinda what i meant, misunderstanding.

    when each and every one of your cards works to accomplish your goal, the opponent can't stop you unless they have a deck made specifically to counter your specific build, or a similar one. My deck has beaten decks made entirely to exploit their weakness, and can do it fairly consistently.

    Also, if every card can work with any other card in a unique way, you can have hundreds of different strategies in your forty card deck, all to accomplish the same goal.

    Okay look, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come off as rude or insult anyone. I admit I probably am not correct in everything that I might say as of now because I haven't played this game in a long time so I'm not exactly the best person to be talking to about this. There's probably stuff that I've missed. Still you really shouldn't make claims like this unless you've played the actual meta...

    might I ask how, exactly, I'm trolling you?
     
  11. *Facepalm* not quite what i meant. each stragie works together as well as sepret my decks have had many combinations work together that had entirely different goals and create an absolute win for me. Everyone Seems to misunderstand me when i say things. i dont duel much anymore because of people that stereotype 41+ decks as weak, then i would beat them, and we would share a laugh, what im trying to say is from my POV + decks work better FOR ME! not you or anyone else but me and others.

    eh sorry...sometimes i kinda...go off when people make blunt accusations on things like that especilly when it pertains to me! eh whatca gonna do POV RIGHT?

    I'm not trying to say you're weak if you use more than forty, or even that you should use only forty. I'm just trying to explain why people believe that it's better, and why statistically it is better. When you say something that I believe is wrong, like that using a small set of strategies to focus on one goal makes you easy to counter, I'm going to disagree with you.

    I'll say this now in response to some earlier posts that I read. Due to what I read earlier I assume that I wasn't heard earlier when I said this so I'll repeat myself with somewhat different wording:

    Listen, I am well aware that I've been a jerk to some of you. And I apologize for that. I do not hate any of you. You are all my friends. Here's the thing, It's just REALLY infuriating how some of you sometimes ask me for help with decks and go to me for advice about this game as if you actually value my opinions but then you all just gang up on me and disagree with me. I literally cannot explain ANYTHING at all without 1 or more people here contradicting me on it. That's pretty infuriating you know? Guys, Let me ask you all something, Is this what you do in school? When you're in school do you say things to your teacher like: "No you're wrong! You gave me a C- on my test for no reason! I got all these answers right!" Well that's pretty much what this is like. If you go to a tournament and play the actual meta I guarantee you'll find that Crystal Beasts and Cloudians and decks with 60 Cards etc. get stomped on. But I'm not gonna try to explain this crap to you anymore. I've done that too many times. Talk to a knowledgeable player yourself about all of this. But you know what? This is all pointless, Cuz you're all probably just going to ignore them and swear that they're wrong even though they know what they're talking about just like you do to me. Seriously, This is infuriating...I am literally physically sore from all this stress. This has probably been the cause of all my headaches and backpain lately...

    Acually Jaden, I have corrected my teacher on things.
    and you know what? It has either raised my grade due to him/her being wrong or helped me to understand something better.
    I question my teacher's knowledge every day lol...
    Not in that tone of voice though...
    I'm probably seeing it in a different way xD (seeing what you said in a different way.)
