Since you refuse to answer my scenarios, I suppose I'll need to answer them for you: Anyone with half a brain would prefer to have the 5- or 6-card hand over the empty hand. And as they would rather have one hand size over the other, hand size matters.

 

In response to your poorly-constructed question, I would rather have two cards of my choice than one random card.

I already answered your questions. as to mines... how was it any different than your questions? I lead you to pick the only logical answer which best suited my desire of you involuntarily agreeing to choosing need over simply drawing.

 

@ Horus: How does that PROVE hand size is important? If your opponent had 0 cards in hand and you have 1, does that mean you can make better plays when he has 9 cards on field, and you have 1?

The difference is that you need to prove that something has no significance whatsoever, whereas all I need to do is prove that something has any significant at all.

 

The fact that my question has a definite answer proves that hand size matters.

 

The fact that your question has a definite answer proves...nothing at all, actually, since a hand consisting of two specifically selected cards has a larger hand size than a hand consisting of one random card. But assuming you changed the question to make it three random cards instead of one and I still picked the two specific cards, that still only proves that having the cards you want takes precedence over having a larger hand; it does not prove that having a larger hand means nothing, but merely that it is not the most important factor in the game.

Theres a better chance than if you had 0 cards in hand.

 

Say the one card on my field is CoSR and the card in my hand is Monster Reborn. I reborn my Zombie Master, draw from COSR, and guess what? Now I have more cards to use.

 

0 cards = no chance

1 card = a chance

 

 

What's better? The possibility of doing something useful, or no possibility of doing something useful?

 

More cards in hands = more possibilities.

HORUS, you don't seem to get it. Nate has a magical power that allows him to create Magical Explosions on his field out of nowhere - but only while his hand is empty.

Hand size doesn't matter' date=' Drawing cards doesn't matter. Getting what you need, when you need it matters. Discuss.[/quote']You still seem incapable of grasping the simple concept that the the title "Hand Size doesn't Matter" and half of the subject are not equivalent.

 

Yeah, I forgot the other half of the subject, which says that drawing cards doesn't matter.

 

That's wrong too.

is not the single most critical element of the game
that's a better way of saying it.

 

Except it's saying something different.

 

For those two to be equal, there would need to be two categories of elements in the game: one for things that are absolutely 100% critical to victory, and one for things that have not even the slightest bearing on the game whatsoever under any circumstances.

 

Such is not the case.

 

For example, Life Points may seem virtually meaningless in the game, but if you only have 700 of them, say goodbye to your Brain Control. Hand size may not have any direct impact, depending on the cards that I have, but I know that, all other things being equal and in a random game state, I'd rather have five random cards from my deck in my hand than have an empty hand - and the fact that I'd rather have one over the other proves that the difference matters.
