This just came to me while looking up some stuff on gamefaqs.

The title of the next yugioh game:
"Yu-Gi-Oh! Power of Chaos: Joey the Passion"

OMG JOEY DIED FOR YOUR SINS

Joey/Jonouchi's the man! Seto may not give him his props but I will! I love underdog characters.

Best. Dream. Ever.

Yeah he is pretty cool. Though speaking of Yu-Gi-Oh, I had this freaky dream a few months ago where I was dueling with Seto except I had CFC (yes Cardfighters Clash) cards. And I will glorify the moment forever when I said, "I summon Dan Hibiki of the Saikyo Style!" and "I USE DAN HIBIKI'S SPECIAL ABILITY: THE SUPER TAUNT"

Best. Dream. Ever.

HA! HA! Yeah, I think about Yu-Gi-Oh all the time when I play CFC. CFC would make a Hell of a great Yu-Gi-Oh style Anime.

It'd have issues when they play against top decks that go about summoning 3 Krausers/Geeses/etc.
"I SUMMON GEESE! AGAIN!", and then they all say, "Too easy!" in unison.

Let's Roll with that.

Cap sees that Shin's summoned 3 Geeses to the Virtual Reality playing Field in the Finals.

CAP: Three Geese Howards? That's never been done before! Now I'll never get the chance to stop The Mask from taking over the World!
SHIN: You loose you second rate Card Fighter! MWAHAHAHAHA!

TO BE CONTINUED.

Next Episode -

First they rehash everything that was Stated so far.

CAP: There's no way I can win. My Shermie Card stopped Shin from attacking me in his last turn, but with that and my Ryu Card I don't stand a chance to defeat Shin. All is lost.
COMET: (Yells from the stands.) You can do it Cap! Beleive in the Hadou of the Cards!
SHIN: I told you, there's no such thing as the Hadou of the Cards. Skill wins battles, not some hokey belief in the Hadou of the Cards. As long as you believe that, you'll always be a Second Rate Card Fighter!
CAP: (With tears in his eyes.) No! Comet is right! I beleive in the Hadou of the cards! And I will finish this match on my next draw!
SHIN: Ha! You're dilousional! I will defeat you now and go on to win the Finals proving that I am the greatest Card Fighter Ever!
CAP: C'mon, I must beleive in the Hadou of the cards. (He draws a Chun-Li card from his deck.) A Chun-Li Card! Now I can turn the tide! I summon Chun-Li to the field!
SHIN: MWAHAHAHAHAHA! Chun-Li only has 500 life points! She's not going to help you at all! You loose!
CAP: Wrong, Shin! You've forgotten Chun-Li's Special ability! Chun-Li has the Ability to reduce all players life points to 100!
(Chun-Li Lightning Kicks Ryu, Shermie and the Three Geeses on the field upon entering and reduces their Life Points to 100.)
SHIN: NOOOO! But she's also reduced your Character's Attack Points too!
CAP: You're right. But I'll play this. My Awakening Card!
SHIN: Ah, it can't be!
CAP: Yes. This will increase Ryu's life points by 200 Points giving him a Total of 300. And I will also play this. A Ken Card to back him up raising his life Points by another 300! Now Ryu is strong enough to wipe you out!
(One of the Geeses runs towards Ryu and Ken. Ryu and Ken Fire of a Double Hadouken just like the SF2 Animated Movie knocking out Geese and the Projectile goes on to wipe out Shin's life points. Cap wins!)
COMET: You did it Cap! I knew you could do it!
SHIN: NO! THIS CAN'T BE! I'VE LOST EVERYTHING!
CAP: I did it, because I believed in the Hadou of the cards.
(Next The Mask Karate Chops Shin in the back of his neck knocking him out.)
CAP: THE MASK!
THE MASK: HA! HA! HA! You did pretty good Cap. But let's see how you fair in the Space Realm! (The Mask transports him and Cap to the space realm used in the last Episode of SF2V.)
CAP: THE SPACE REALM! IT'S NOT POSSIBLE!
THE MASK: Fool! Once I play the Legendary Mundis Card, the only one in Existence, I will have Cap's Legendary God Rugal Card and I will take over the World! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

quote almost every other anime/manga features a protagonist's best friend/rival named Shin. I have no idea why this is.

Note: almost every other anime/manga features a protagonist's best friend/rival named Shin. I have no idea why this is. CFC, Fist of the North Star, Tenjo Tenge, even Memories Off (which is a love ADV...). I'd like to hope that it was all because of Fist of the North Star, but I know that's probably not true.

Anyway.

(shaded man): CAP, step aside; this is no place for children like you.
CAP: But..
(shaded man): You will soon see what it is to play a game at a higher level.
*(shaded man) draws deck*
*CAP steps aside reluctantly*

MASK: Foolish old man! I can see from here that your deck has few S-rank rares in it! How can you even dare to stand against my army of the finest in the game? What can you possibly hope to do?

(shaded man): The only thing there is left to do: win.

*They both draw, and (shaded man) goes first*

*the two play a few tentative turns, with the (shaded man) just barely holding off MASK's legion of overpowered cards via creature elimination like Akuma, cycling Akuma with Yashiro, etc.*

(shaded man): It is time to end this.

*(shaded man) plays LAST RESORT, which draws enormous _WTF_ sound from arena audience*

CAP: I see! At the highest levels of play, technicalities of cards are exploited to the highest level to bring victory!

*(shaded man) sets up sure-killing combo*

MASK: I've been defeated... how?!

(shaded man): You have relied simply on filling your deck with the strongest creatures to overpower your opponent. Because of this, you have never needed to develop any sense of strategy.

MASK: NO!

(shaded man): Of course you can easily defeat similar decks with are made to function with lesser cards. But those are the only opponents you have ever played against, and so, you have become overconfident of your deck's abilities. You have never considered other deck designs while flaunting your own deck's power. You have no metagame to speak of. You are, in a word, scrubby.

MASK: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
*MASK's deck bursts into flames*

---

You should see Magic. At higher levels of play, there's simply a whole different paradigm on cards. In sealed deck environments, where people are basically forced to use really crappy cards, higher level READINGS of what cards can do force a need for rulings and on the spot errata. The brilliance of technical exploitation is hard to appreciate unless you play the game, though (just like the way it is with any other game..).
