unless things have changed very recently, i dislike where yugioh has gone

to my understanding, basically none of the core mechanics from the original sets matter anymore

traps? tribute summons? fusions? defense points? life points? nope, just card advantage, fishing for OTKs, and chaining special summons for so long that you might as well be playing solitaire

when people started banishing 10 to draw 2, i knew the game was dead to me

That's the case for a lot of TCGs though.

Jinzo was just as shit back then as it is now.

see though, by this logic pot of greed is one of the worst cards in the game because you can't even use one in your deck

Yeah but backrow was something you actually stocked with shit to stop raigeki. Since it wasn't a quick play you should have something to deal with it by the time you get your Jinzo w/ Amplifier  going.

Non anime Winged Dragonn of Ra is an actual trash fire.

i use pot of greed

pot of greed allows me to draw 2 extra cards from my deck to my hand!

I activate the normal spell card known as “Pot Of Greed”. As told on the top of the card, below the dark gray border. This card that is named “Pot Of Greed” contains an effect located in its effect text box. I will now activate the effect by reading the text. Due to the effect of “Pot Of Greed”, I am allowed to pick up the top two (Represented in roman numerals as II, not to be confused with the number after ten and preceding twelve known as eleven) cards of my main deck that can contain monsters, spells, and traps, but not Fusion, Synchro, XYZ, or Link monsters. Immediately after I complete the action of placing my fingers on my main deck, so that the top card of my main deck will slide off the next card when I pull my finger horizontally to myself so that I and only I can see the card that I have taken out of my deck. After I complete this action, I must then place my fingers upon the top face down card of my deck (In some rare situations, the top card of my deck will be face-up, instead of the normal face-down position. For example, when the effect of the card known as “Parasite Paracide” (Whose effect text is as follows: FLIP: Put this card face-up in your opponent's Deck and shuffle it. When your opponent draws this card, it is Special Summoned to their side of the field in face-up Defense Position, and inflicts 1000 damage to them. Then, while this card is face-up on the field, all monsters your opponent controls become Insect-Type monsters.) is activated and shuffled into my deck, and happens to be on the top of my deck, it will be face-up due to its effect. There is an exception to this, where if the card known as “Convulsion Of Nature” is in effect while “Parasite Paracide” is shuffled into my main deck per its effect, the resulting “Parasite Paracide” that is now in my main deck, will appear face-down. The other situation where some or all of the cards held in my main deck is with the continuous spell card known as “Convulsion Of Nature” (Its effect is stated as the following: As long as this card remains face-up on the field, both players must turn their respective Decks upside down and proceed with the current Duel.” if “Convulsion Of Nature” is destroyed after being face-up in the spell and trap card zone as well as activated and resolved, both players must turn their decks upside-down so that their cards on the top of their deck are not visible, (Not to be confused with marked cards, which is a card that has some identification on the back of said card. This strategy is illegal and if used in a tournament, will get you ejected most of the time, or given a new unmarked copy)) where due to its effect, both players must turn their decks 180° so that you are able to view the topmost card of both your main deck, and your opponent’s main deck.) and pull my fingers towards me again so that the card follows it and can be manipulated using my fingers. After pulling my fingers away from my main deck for the second time, I then take the two cards that were taken from the top of my main deck and bring them towards the cards that are not on the field, graveyard, extra deck, or main deck that is visible only to myself, (Unless under the effect of a card effect that reveals my hand to my opponent, such as (In the TCG(Trading Card Game(This is used as a term when referring to cards that have been imported from the OCG(Original Card Game(Used in Asia)(Not to be confused with the medical term of the same initials which means “Oral cholecystogram”)))))the trap card known as “The Eye Of Truth” (Whose effect is as follows: Your opponent must keep their hand revealed. During each of your opponent’s standby phases, if they have a spell card in their hand: They gain 1000 LP (Life points)))(This is referred to as “Your Hand”). After I have successfully changed the position of the two cards that were face-down before the effect of “Pot Of Greed” was activated to my hand, without my opponent chaining a card effect that prevents me from activating spell cards, or adding cards to my hand, I then must send “Pot Of Greed” from the spell and trap card zones to my graveyard. This is accomplished by placing my fingers on either side of the card known as “Pot Of Greed” so that I pick up the card when I move my hand vertically and horizontally towards the zone known as “The Graveyard” that is located behind my main deck, or from my opponent’s point of view, in front of my main deck.
