I have lost all faith in my abilities.


Recommended Posts

Alright, I know I'm a mod and stuff, and I know this probably won't generate much discussion, but I just need to let it out. I'll come around and close this later, if I need to.

 

I took my Macro Monarch deck to locals today. Out of the twenty-something games I played I only had TWO victories. That's not the worst part; some kid who just had some random beat-down deck walked up-and-down my ass, repeatedly. I don't think I've ever been this humiliated...

 

I don't know if it's my deck, my skills, or just bad luck, but I'm seriously starting to doubt myself. I don't think I've ever had a time before where I thought I failed this game THIS badly. All of a sudden I don't even feel like my opinions are valid anymore, seeing as how hard I failed today; it feels like I'm back in the days when I used to be trounced and taunted by everyone else...

 

Help me out... Please?

 

P.S.: On a positive note, I got an LaDD, PoC and Raiza off of the noob for a Cyber Dragon.

Hey, it happens all time. It's just bad luck; I lost with my fiend deck to my old neighbor's 'classic' Elemental Hero deck, when he made the final attack with a combo of Book of Moon and an attack from Flame Wingman against my Dark Ruler Ha Des. What ever you feel bad about, I should feel 100 times worse, but I find it funny at times.

You just have bad luck. Believe me. With my MM deck, sometimes I'll bring 2 or 3 monarchs out in one turn, while others I get totally dead hands. Once I lost to Wild Wingman, once I killed a pretty good Exodia deck. Don't let it destabilize you. Maybe fix for consistency. Whatever happens, don't get convinced you fail completely.

 

Of course, if the above doesn't work, there's always chess.

man, you are lucky.

 

TWO victories??

 

i am usually lucky to get one at regionals. :cry:

 

i hope that makes you feel better that there are definitely people out there that are worse than you... however that doesnt make me feel better one bit.

 

keep trying, mate. as the new meta dawns, which might be fairy synchro, you will always need to tune up your deck. (sorry for the pun. XD)

 

i hope i have encouraged you, even in the least bit.

Yeah. I'm still waiting for my slump. All my good luck is going to turn to bad luck and then I will lose to everyone. It will probably happen right before the sneak peak tournament on Sunday.

 

Anyways, I wish you the best of luck at regaining your skills. Try using a really bad deck.

You're in the wrong place if you want any actual help.

 

Go to a place where you're amongst players that make you realize precisely how bad at this game you are' date=' and you'll be in the one place where you can actually improve.

I'd love to, except I can't find that place. All I have is the card store that I go to, and everyone there just laughs...

 

I mean, finding some nice people in real life who are actually good and willing to help is really difficult, and I'm afraid I don't have the means to seek them out.

What kind of decks beat you. I mean some times you lose because you just get crap hands, other times you lose because your deck is rap compared to theirs. So of the +20 matches if you lost most of them to thing like GB, DAD and LS, other decks that are good in this meta, than it isn't that bad.

 

But what do I know.

Wow, way to be a jackass by outright insulting him.

 

 

Anyway, you're lucky to have even won AT ALL. I barely win any duels, but that's just I have a really suckish deck. But hey, it's not my fall I have bad pull luck.

 

Don't worry, your skills might return by the banlist. Wait, how long did it take for EotE to get banned?

If you haven't noticed, a lot of people in the TCG and Deck sections are like that.

How? I was told flat up that I suck so bad at Yu-Gi-Oh that I should just kill myself.

See, this is why SixSam, LS, and Monarch builds are problematic, they leave too much to chance, lack searchability, and often get bad hands.

 

I'd recommend starting over. It's weird, but my PC Monarch Deck started to get a little slumpy (4-6), then I built an anti-Special Summon LIGHT beatdown Deck and it went 10/0 on my ol' PC Monarch deck. :shock:

 

I dunno, something about Monarchs just doesn't work these days. Monarch decks without PMD seem to be horrible these days, I'd recommend a PMD.

This is the point where you look at your deck and wonder if it should be taken apart. Your not bad maybe you just need to try a new deck. Example for me, my fire deck was ownage for a long time. Suddenly it started ti fail so I looked at it thinking I should just quit. I decided to build a totally different deck and now its working a hell of a lot better than the fire was. Just try to change themes.

He's not being a jackass. In all games, the only way to get better is find out how badly you suck compared to other people. From their you learn from them.
