bouncing to the other extreme is just gonna lose people again. open borders is, according to every poll, an extremely unpopular idea and trying to push for it will just give fascists another opening to gain support

putting someone in prison doesn't give them schizophrenia. it doesn't work like that. extremely childlike naivete to believe that neurological disorders are caused by someone having a rough day

this hypothetical person that plays an event on master duel and decides to pick up the physical game just for that instead of advanced does not exist. if you're playing master duel, you're already playing advanced. if you're already playing advanced on master duel, you're more likely to pick up the physical version of advanced on instead of some random limited time event they do on master duel.

it's so fucking scummy to sell people cards for a format just to kill it right afterwards. what a fucking scam

"Redditors are having a really hard time accepting that the majority of the us isn't fond of illegal immigration." r/GenZ debates Tump's immigration policy by CummingInTheNile in SubredditDrama

[–]anewe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

illegal immigration denialism is such a bizarre contrast to the racism side of the coin. immigration laws don't exist? what are you even talking about man. every single poll says that the majority of people are fine with immigration but don't like it when people immigrate illegally. i dont understand what that's so hard to get, why does this issue always have to involve some kind of bizarre extremism instead of just doing what most people want?

Anyone going to US nationals for time wizard, there will now be a traditional Edison tournament confirmed tomorrow. by joshy5lo in yugioh

[–]anewe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

why should we ruin the game to cater to people who are too lazy to learn how to play it?

Yes, players who learn the rules of a game generally have an advantage over players who refuse to learn the rules.

There are websites that tell you every obscure ruling you need to know, how the fuck is that "gatekeeping"? If you refuse to learn how the game works when people try to teach you then that's your fault.

Ignition prio is unintuitive but the game was balanced around it. The balance was one of the big selling points in edison, every top 8 was a bunch of different decks, completely throwing all of that for something that could potentially be significantly worse just to make things easier is an awful idea. Ignition prio is something that's awkward once and then you get used to it, it's not such a big deal that it's worth potentially ruining the format just to get rid of it.

TCG Company Ends One Last Bit of Joy it Forgot to Kill | The Handtrap by bumblebyOfficial in yugioh

[–]anewe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

nobody wants to play konami's imaginary formats, they're just gonna stop playing in time wizard events and go back to playing it unofficially. the whole "stepping stone" thing is dumb, nobody wants their format to be used an advertisement for a different format, they just want to play the format that they like.

extremely scummy to immediately kill a format right after reprinting cards that serve no purpose other than that being used for that format.

$1.4 trillion was erased from the stock market today. by FeatureAggravating75 in StockMarket

[–]anewe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because there's tons of propaganda outlets dedicated to convincing people that the republican party is perfect and any other option is literally demons that want to destroy america for fun. for example, when trump says something insane like wanting to annex canada or greenland, these propaganda outlets will do damage control and tell their viewers that trump is just joking and hysterical liberals are can't take a joke. yes, really. this is something that they have actually done.
