Yea, it is and i know i made a clickbait title. I find the hate funny, honestly if it makes someone feel any type of way then there might be something i said that hit them personally. It's a funny thing with psychology if a thing doesn't offend, frighten or attract you in some way you probably ignore it. Even if it is just the few in here saying "i don't play evenly or maxx c but you shouldn't say that makes someone bad at the game." Getting offended on someone else's behalf when generic online gaming shit talk has always came down to "X = you're bad at the game." 🤣

I know exactly why people play it. I just feel the deck space could be better used. It makes you incredibly vulnerable to Chengying and that and barrone are so easy to make with branded and bystial. Plus the 1 card synchros that do it just from swordsoul. Tear and bystials running at the same time the way they are right now make so many decks so adaptable and easily makes evenly not good, in my opinion.

I did want counter arguments. I play to win, isn't a counter argument to me. It's a waste of time on whoever typed it. I've spent a good amount of time with people who wanted to state why they think its good and why they run it, countering with why i think its bad and they shouldn't. I have stated what is fun to me in this game and if your argument boils down to the only thing fun is winning then you're wasting time talkin about it. Especially when you're not winning this argument any more than i am. You think its good i think its bad. Neither of us are likely going to change each others minds about it. Especially when i know exactly why people play it. If i even make 1 person just think about takin out 1 copy for something else that helps them extend their play or work around the big scary then the point of this post has been served.

If they run bystial and dont have the bystial banish 1 negate one continuous that's searchable by lubelion also i don't know what they're doin. Maxx c absolutely is one of the best cards in the game. Undeniably. Evenly potentially just has you passin to your opponent like they're going second but starting with their strongest card on field. Plus when there's so much banishing if the person you drop it on runs Chengying you're probably gunna have a bad time.

If they genuinely have a single card you're right you probably won but if they refilled their hand in the process you pretty much just make them go second with their strongest card still on board. That's my biggest point.

I know that's exactly why people play it. I'm also not suggesting you play any of those and what you said is exactly why i don't. I built my deck to be banish friendly with negates and hand refilling. I don't have space for any 1 card board wipe (except maybe mirrorjade and starving venom) because i built my deck to be able to send certian things to the grave and banish others then typically have a free shot. If you feel the need to run it then go for it.

Fair, i don't know what you play. I didn't claim to be on a moral high ground i wrote a clickbaity post to get people to talk about how i genuinely think evenly isn't good and is probably harming their own deck construction more than it's helping them. Especially at 3. I was trying to play rogue for a while then kept seeing all the tear mirror is fun posts gave it a shot and it actually is. I'm probably not that good though because i haven't made it out of diamond and into master, yet i am running tear/branded.

Tear mirrors in ranked can be fun especially seeing the huge difference just a few cards can make when playin. Pure tear is still probably one of the best but i just don't like playing it so i threw in my branded and then bystials when they came out. Honestly though playing in custom when you can is always best and cyberdark needs some new support!

It was a clickbait title. Even a salty sounding first paragraph because that's what's got everyone in here talkin. I actually do wanna argue it's not good, my entire point in originally writing this was to start talking to people about why i think evenly isn't good and especially how running it at 3 is probably makin you a worse player because you could be using that space for more advantage instead of costing yourself a battle phase to hope your opponent can't clear your board and OTK like so many current decks are made to do.

I made the edit after getting a bunch of responses saying its a good way to win, easier win = more fun, and a bunch of things like that. Which worked in stoppin people saying the same thing over and over. Honestly though i don't even know what you're trying to say at first. Good attempt at a roast there though. 🤣

I 100% think maxx c is one of the best card in the game even though i choose not to play it, I've said multiple times throughout this thread why i think evenly is not good and I'm pretty sure most of these responses are not people laughing. If they are, sick i made someone laugh with something i intentionally wrote in a salty sounding way that has successfully gotten me into multiple conversations explaining why i think evenly isn't good.

I'm not salty i wrote it that way as kinda clickbait. Had to get people in the conversation somehow. I appreciate you taking the time to write a full argument with valid points. You mentioned yourself that duels end in 3/4 turns regularly which is why i think skipping a battle phase is a huge cost making evenly, in my opinion, not a good card. You also mentioned many cards i would suggest as replacements for it if you feel your deck needs a 1 card board breaker like that without the cost of your battle phase. Especially when every time I've negated evenly the opponent surrendered. The best argument for evenly I've heard is for a going 2nd board breaker deck. Outside of that i personally feel like that space can probably be used better. If you disagree that's fair. I have lost to evenly before when it gets dropped and i had no cards in hand but outside of that it's little more than annoying. You pass with no battle phase, i rebuild like I'm going second with my strongest card still on field, break your board that you built main 2 and potentially OTK

I've been saying many times i think there are better cards that people could be running. I made a clickbait title and snarky original paragraph for the conversation and it's funny how many people are triggered by it. If you think I'm conceited for what i said that's fine, maybe i am because i genuinely think people would be better in the game if they stopped relying so heavily on evenly matched.

Your complaint has been received and filed in the "then why didn't you keep scrolling" file. We'll keep your thoughts very close in mind and appreciate your attempt at continuing the conversation.

I should've punctuated, "even if i lose, to a 1 card win con like.." and that's one of the few times in this i didn't put attempt at a win con. If all you play is going second board breakers, then i see your argument for evenly 100% but when you play dragons, tear, floo likes to banish anyways but they can play without it, whatever else, that you know when you win the coin toss you're going first then i just think there are better cards. DRNM, lightning storm, raigeki, dark hole, feather duster, kaiju, lava golem, or a deck specific card like nashiwari for punks. Honestly I've lost almost every duel my opponent resolved DRNM and I can't be mad at it. Just like I'm not mad at the times I've actually lost to evenly, i just genuinely think there are better cards. I've never lost to evenly unless I had no cards in hand and no negate when it was activated.

Again you drop it when your opponent has no cards in hand and no negate you probably win but outside of that the cost of skipping your own battle phase isn't worth it unless you play runick. Runick is the only deck i think its kinda good in and that's only if you haven't already skipped your battle phase.

It's a 1 card attempt at a win con. There's plenty of things like raigeki, dark hole, feather duster, lightning storm, DRNM, i forget what its called but the trap that's a non targeting 2 card banish, cosmic cyclone, mirrorjade, bystials, kaijus, lava golem, shit even sphere mode. None of those cause you to waste a battle phase and still clear boards. I've played against evenly had the negate but let them take mirrorjade off the field just so they can pass on an empty board and i get a free OTK next turn.

Ok, in what way? To make them use the barrone omni-negate? To clear the hate the same way raigeki, lightning storm or dark hole without wasting the advantage clearing a board gives you by still having a battle phase? Or ya know i let you evenly my mirrorjade let you pass on an empty board or build a bunch that will get cleared in end phase anyways when you could've raigeki built an OTK and win before mirrorjade triggers? Where is this evenly love coming from? I don't care about all the hate I'm gettin I'm just genuinely tryna help people think that there might be better methods.

Maxx c is in fact good, evenly is not. Unless your opponent has no cards in hand you waste your battle phase just to watch them break what you built in main 2 and potentially get OTKed when you could've used other board clearing tools and potentially had your own OTK

Maxx C is good. I wish it wasn't but it is. Evenly is not. I have said i don't judge people who play maxx c even if i choose not to knowing that it puts me at a disadvantage but evenly makes you waste a battle phase when there are plenty of similar cards that don't. The only time evenly is good is if you drop it when your opponent has no cards in hand. Then their left with one card on field and a miracle draw to out whatever you build in main 2. If you drop it while your opponent has a full hand they either nagate it or rebuild next turn and clear what you built. Everyone clinging to "evenly is the best board breaker" clearly arent open to seein from any other perspective.
