Forum:I am fed up with playing on DN, everyone uses Meta decks despite me telling them no to, and i developped because of that a fear of losing

Good Evening friends. I just wanted some advice or anything similar if you don't mind. Here's the story: I am a person who prints all his cards in real life with a normal printer and sticks them to fake cards (All this process is reasonably cheap ), why do i do it? Because i like having the cards i like,I SAID LIKE, NOT find powerful. You see, i am someone who believes purely in dueling with a fun deck, a theme deck, a billy deck or anything you made yourself out of your own heart, with cards whose Design and theme you like. I just hate how everyone is only playing meta decks or decks with specific cards based around ONE SINGLE strategy, Like Malefic Geartown, or stardust/Assault mode lock... To tell you the truth, a few times, to respond to that, i made both in real life (WITH FAKE PRINTED CARDS, FOR THOSE CURSING ME BECAUSE THEY ACTUALLY THINK I CAN AFFORD ONE) and on dueling network two hybrid decks, one composed of a lockdown with Plasma, Horus and Decree, and one with 3 Stardust Dragon / Assault mode. However, despite being more efficient than my other decks, i never truly enjoyed using them as much as decks i truly like (Photon-Galaxy, Rank 4 Xyz, Atlandis-Monarchs, Phantom Beasts, Genex Ally)(Again, all of them are fake), and switched back to my old decks. When i play on DN, i ALWAYS Leave this note when creating a game: NO META, ONLY FUN OR THEME DECKS, ONLY CARDS YOU LIKE...etc. Howver, 75 % of the times, the players who enter my game use Meta decks or single strategy decks: Frognarchs, Malefic Gear, lava golem lockdown, Magic explosion OTK, EXODIA FTK.... I'm just sick of bumping into all these hypercompetitive decks wherever i go despite carrying a giant banner saying : NO HYPER F****G HYPERCOMPETITIVE DECKS! Due to me facing only those decks when i gather enough will to play again, i don't feel like playing anymore. I remember once facing a girl who used Karakuri-themed deck. Karakuris aren't much known, just like my Genex Allies, and are a fun non-broken deck. Despite losing to that lady, i really enjoyed the duel and wanted to play again. However, all those humiliating losses to Meta or high-tier decks, along with the part of me that's a sore loser, made me afraid of playing again because there is a high chance i'd lose a totally nauseating loss to high tier players, while i'm just looking for fun decks used by fun people. I may even be becoming afraid of losing in regular fun duels, against fun players. Please, if anyone has an advice or a nice thing to say, leave a comment!
