I am officially back and ready to kick @$$ and play Card Games... and I'm all out of @$$ !!!

About me
"The Exodia ZTK consists of drawing all 5 Exodia pieces in the 5 starting cards". ''The probability of this happening is 0,0000015, or 1,5 × 10-6. Still think you can do it?''

Hello, I'm user Darth Covah, name derived from the title "Darth" of Star Wars Sith Lords, and "Covah" is the word "Havoc" spelled in reverse.

As you can certainly see, I love Star Wars, and, for you to be reading this, I also love Yu-Gi-Oh!.

I am 18 years old, a Biology student in Crete, Greece and a regular Yu-Gi-Oh! Advanced Format player.

I have been playing for over 5 years, and enjoy this game a lot.

'''I am also a certified Level 1 Yu-Gi-Oh! Rules Expert' (100/100 test score)''. So you can count on me to give (mostly) accurate Rulings advice.

Without further ado, more Yu-Gi-Oh! related stuff! (dunno, that is good, right?)
I used to (Summer 2008) play an Abundance OTK deck - Originally I was thinking to construct a Volcanic Deck, but all the FOTB boosters tended to have Crystal Beasts instead of Volcanic cards, so I went for the CB deck instead. I also have a Rainbow Dragon variant of my deck.

Right now, I've not fully decided which one of my decks to use, but I tend to use my newest Flash Burn Deck more, followed by my Single Tribute Deck. I also have a soft spot for my (unprepared yet amazingly powerful) Black Rose Deck.

See my DeckZone for more info! My newest decks won't be posted until they're done, mind you!

Rare Cards currently in possession/found in boosters
Crush Card Virus x1 (Gold Rare) - Gold Series (I actually found this nasty card in THE VERY FIRST Gold Series pack I bought, making myself the No. 1 Most Hated Yu-Gi-Oh! player in my neighbourhood for some time - that is until I sold the card for 200 € (not bad, huh?)).

Mirror Force x1 (Gold Rare) - Gold Series (Found in the third Gold Series pack I bought - Actually I had a MRD 1st edition Mirror Force, but some @#$#%$^ stole it, so....).

Solemn Judgment x1 (Rare) - Champion Pack: Game One (Why, oh why can't I find 2 more of these?).

Rare Value x (1 Ultra Rare) - Force of the Breaker 1st Edition.

Polymerization x1 (Super Rare) - Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon 1st Edition (might not seem like much, but this is one of the first rare cards EVER, so its value is quite large, frankly).

Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo x1 (Secret Rare) - Light of Destruction Unlimited Edition - pulled this one from a LODT booster in a Goyo Guardian tin :-D. Traded it for a bunch of Hobby League Holofoils.

Black Rose Dragon x3 (1x Ultimate Rare 1st Edition, 2x Ultra Rare Unlimited Edition) - Crossroads of Chaos. Nuking the field is cool. Heh.

And lots of other less hard-to-find cards...See my Binder for more cards and trades.

Rare Cards that I MUST FIND!
Dark Magician of Chaos x1 (Doesn't really fit into any deck I play, but is soooo cooool that I MUST HAVE ONE!!!) (Edit: Found him, too. Too bad he's banned now :-.

Solemn Judgment x2 (Feels rather good to negate everything your opponent does, and Solemn Judgment does just that...)

Wave-Motion Cannon x3 (Common Card, you say? Well, I say that IMMA FIRIN' MAH LAZOR!!! (yeah this one is quoted from another user, but it fits perfectly!!) (Edit: Found'em! Now I also have a deck to use them with!).

(And a few more minor ones...)

...I like
DMoC. Period.

The English Fansub version of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's (or the original Japanese, if you prefer). Go go Aki!

Mind H4x0Rz (omg leetspeak).

Rescue Cat (These kitty eyes are irresistible...).

Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus (The Flying Unicorn from Heaven).

Crystal Abundance (All your duel are belong to us).

Malfunction (Chain it to your opponent's Solemn Judgment and see what I mean).

Ominous Fortunetelling (I'm psychic...700 points of direct damage!).

Solar Flare Dragon (Easiest. Lockdown. Ever.).

Skull Servant (Will rule the world! Bow down to the King of Skull Servants!).

Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged! FTW!

Dueling for fun, not to win.

Trading rare cards.

Opening booster packs.

Losing a duel and hearing your opponent say that "you are the best I've faced".

Last, FAIR PLAY.

...I hate
The English Dub of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. Damn 4Kids!

Imbalanced Dragon From Hell.

Treeborn Frog. Just DIE ALREADY! (Hate it, but I run one nevertheless :-P).

The Horror. (Coming Soon to a Special Edition CSOC near you :-O).

Trap Dustshoot (Tell me again, why was The Forceful Sentry banned?).

Gladiator Beast Gyzarus. Return 2 GB's, special summon Gyzarus, destroy 2 cards, attack, return Gyzarus, special summon 2 GB's - and next turn all over AGAIN!

Misplays. Even if I am favored by them.

Netdecking. Why can't people just use their brain and make something original? (I have something like 10 different decks, all fully original (only the archetypes might be same to others' decks), and I expect others to be original too).

Domination of Darkness over the Yu-Gi-Oh! world. What is it with all those who are on a DARK frenzy? D.A.D. will probably get banned soon anyways, and more powerful cards will emerge. So what's the big idea? (D.A.D. = Broken, but however went JUST semi-limited, while all its support went unlimited. OMG!)

Paying a fortune to buy the rarest and most powerful cards and make a winner deck (which is an exact rip-off of a tournament-winning one), just to obliterate anyone who tries their best with a 30 € deck...come on people, where is the motivation for new players?

Introduction of new (and more complex) techniques on an already complicated game. WE DO NOT NEED TUNERS! (They are cool though, gotta giv'em that...Pretty strong too...might just change my mind about them...What did you say, Black Rose, my love?).

Being Headstrong and WRONG.

Bad manners in duels. "I pwned your a$$" and "you're a n00b" - there is no reason to brag about it...

Sore losers.

Last, but not least, DEAD DRAWS.
