Ahoy, I'm Flesk.

I'm pretty new to the yugioh trading card game, but I'm trying to make up for that by learning as fast as I can.

The first foil card I ever got in a booster pack was a Botanical Lion from crossroads of chaos. After playing a few games against my friends who are more seasoned yugioh players, I realized that my deck needed a theme and a strategy to stand a chance against other players and I decided to build my deck around the few plant cards I had. I kept buying booster packs (some with plants in them, and others randomly) and tested the new cards I got in duels with my friends. It took me a long time, and I gradually let go of Botanical Lion as the trump card of my deck in favor of other plants like Gigaplant and Lonefire Blossom (Phantom darkness was kind to me), but I can finally say that I have a deck that is competitive in the circle of duelists I know and play against.

I'm currently improving my plant deck by experimenting with cards like Swing of Memories and Supervise (Gigaplant has become a major focus for me lately but I wish to test cards myself and make a deck that I can call my own, rather than copy someone elses ideas), and I've started two other deck projects; Crystal Beasts and Fortune Ladies. The crystal beast idea appeals to me because of their unique mechanics and I just happened to get many Fortune Lady cards from the later booster packs so I figured I'd try them out ;)

Kudos to you if you read all of that, figured it would be lazy of me to just have a blank user page. Feel free to clutter my talk page although I can't promise I'll remember to check it too ofter :3Flesk 19:03, December 17, 2009 (UTC)
