shonenhikada Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 your correct more intense gameplay because practically all the cards aren't off limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JesusofChaos™ Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 because the game is over quicker coin flip, then you know whos wins. It saves time. However advanced format is becoming like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrabHelmet Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 JoC came closest to the right answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Zero Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 I'll take a stab at this one and see how my answer is rated. Traditional is better than advanced because any kind of ban list in a card game is, 98% of the time, made for two reasons...1. To cover for complete oversights/failures in development and playtesting. 2. To force players into an almost constant state of having to sink money into the game they wish to play. If you are constantly removing content from the game then you are also constantly forcing players to have to purchase new content to replace that which is lost. Games have existed in the past that used story, design, and play mechanics to encourage people to continue to purchase their product. MTG is the one who petty much invented this system where you can bypass those ideas and just get right to the profits. So traditional is better than advanced because if not for greed and poor design there would not be advanced. Traditional is the game in it's intended and pure state whereas, in an ideal game, Advanced doesn't even need to exist. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tefached Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 in traditional format the cards are much more basic, not as many effect cards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabHelmet Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 So now we have an anarchist and...someone who thinks that Traditional has fewer effect cards than Advanced. Apparently, Normal Monsters are now Trad-Pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Traditional Format is better because the duels are all over in 1 turn. Their is no skill needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeppeli Gyro Supreme Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 At my locals, nobody uses overly powerful decks, and it's Traditional. The duels all at least last 3 turns, and the only person to make it go that quickly is me, and that's with a Monarch deck. And no, not all of those decks sucks. There are some n00bs, but they're not all n00bs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaos Pudding Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Actually, with the banning of D-Fusion, Advanced just got quite a bit slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orochi Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 hmmm... how can a game where the coinflip decides who wins to be better?? i guess i got it, because if the game is decided by a coinflip, then both players are at equal conditions of winning... right??

But it does relate to the fact that Traditional is essentially a coin flip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fh-Fh Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Hold on, hold on, hold on. D-Fusion is banned? When did this happen?!? I think adv is better because in trad half your deck is unbanned cards. ... If I am being very stupid right now, please don't sig this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
