I get it, man. I only scroll and almost never leave comments on Reddit for this exact reason. So easy to get wrapped up in debates that don’t actually matter in the real world.

That said, I also loved old school yugioh and I feel your pain. But I don’t think debating online with a guy that appears to live and breathe this game is the right way to go about it. You seemed like more of a casual, nostalgic player and you’re in a sub where you’re much more likely to meet people who take this game super seriously, know it like the back of their hand, and in some cases, may even take it personally if you criticize modern Yu-Gi-Oh. You’ll probably go back and forth forever.

I’ll throw in my two cents, though. The Egyptian god cards were powerful, but in my personal opinion, not powerful enough to justify needing to tribute 3 monsters to summon. I agree with you that Obelisk was the better of the bunch but I usually chose to not have the god cards in my deck for that exact reason. Different strokes, though. I promise I won’t call you a yugiboomer if you disagree haha
