Noobs Guide to Survive your Local Hobby League


Recommended Posts

We've all been there. Our first tounament. We have our Beatdown Decks ready. As the flight begins you get demolished by Dark Armed Return. Then we start saying stupid things that look down on us such as "Blue Eyes White Dragon is the best card ever." Also Illegal Decks with 3 Change of Heart and Snatch Steals aren't any better. Read this Thread and you might not get a noob rep at your Hobby League.

 

[spoiler=Lesson 1 META]

The first thing is to know what the META is. The META is what Decks are the best in the current Format. A Format is the Current Ban List. The META can be seen here http://metagame.com/yugioh/default.aspx.

 

Current Big META Decks are: Dark Armed Return, Gladiator Beasts, Lightsworn, Zombies, and Counter Fairy.

 

 

[spoiler=Lesson 2 Ban List]

The Ban List. This what you need to know for your Deck. You can have 0 cards in your deck that are in the Forbidden List. 1 in the Limited List. And 2 in the Semi-Limited List. Your Local Hobby League uses the most current list and in the Advanced Format. If you exceed the number of cards you are allowed, you will automaticaly lose the match.

[spoiler=Lesson 3 Talking]

Watch what you say. What you say can change your whole reputaion and better players will call you noob and misc. Some examples are "Cyber Dragon is the Best card EVER!" or "Dark Armed Dragon sucks cause you have to remove cards". So the lesson is, if you don't know, KEEP YOUR YAP SHUT!

 

[spoiler=Lesson 4 Trades]

Don't trade unless you know your card's Net Value. The card's Net Value is how much it's worth. Check Ebay for prices of cards you want and you have so you won't get ripped off!

 

 

 

Well this concludes my lesson, If you wish for a way to make cheap decks please just request it in your post and I will make one.
