Hello, dear readers. Do I have good news for all of you. Thanks to a very useful Booster set called Lightning Overdrive , I have been able to rebuild a character Deck that holds a special place in my heart. Akiza Izinski has always been my favorite character, not simply because she felt alone in the world, but her Deck reflected her past, and it showed in the build of her cards, especially her " Black Rose Dragon ".  Only when she met Yusei Fudo and the other Signers did she find a purpose in her life and a common goal to aid others in getting over their troubled past. And here, you will see the cards assembled to create Akiza Izinski's Deck, as best as I can remember, using the cards she uses for Synchro Summons and a few for Link Summons. Hope you enjoy, and as always, keep smiling, and keep dreaming.

Hello, dear readers. Today is a day that will go down in history, because I have finally completed a Deck Profile from Ages Past. That's right, everyone: " The Winged Dragon of Ra " finally has a Deck to call its own, and I put my heart and soul into it. This video contains the cards I placed into this Deck include cards from a Booster Pack called Legendary Duelists: Rage of Ra .  I hope you will watch this video and enjoy the time I put into it and this Deck. And remember: Don't forget to vote.

Hello, dear readers. After so much ruminating and pondering, I decided to rebuild my Yu-Gi-Oh Deck focusing on one of my more favorite Fusion Monsters, " Supreme King Z-ARC ". My last Deck-building attempt didn't turn out well, due to the fact that I was focusing solely on Performapal monsters.  But now that I switched my focus to Pendulum Magician cards, it seems to be building better than the last attempt. I also have to include Link Monsters, since Pendulum Monsters summoned from the Extra Deck still have to go into an Extra Monster Zone or a Main Monster Zone that a Link Arrow is pointing to.  Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz Monsters are no longer limited by Link Arrows or to the Extra Monster Zones, so the Deck has gotten some serious revision. Thanks for checking this video out, and as always, keep smiling, and keep dreaming.

Hello, dear readers. I thought I'd share the result of many months of research in Trading Cards, and showcase my new and improved "Ancient Gear" Deck. If you do watch this video, please be cordial regarding comments and ratings. Hope you enjoy.

Hello, dear readers. For anyone who focuses on many Extra Deck Special Summons, there's good news for you. Starting on April 1, 2020, some changes will be made to the Yu-Gi-Oh!  card game and its gameplay. What are they? Well, just watch this video and see for yourself. In the meantime, keep smiling, and keep dreaming. Oh, and Merry Christmas.

For anyone who's interested in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game , I have constructed what I believe is my signature Deck. This Deck shows my "Ancient Gear" cards, and a focus on limiting my opponent's counter moves. Hope you enjoy. Oh, and as always, keep smiling, and keep dreaming.

Hey, you guys. Just wanted to post a blog about the coming summer and what it will bring for Yu-Gi-Oh!  fans. Remember Zigfried von Schroeder  and his brother Leon ?  Well, Trading Card collectors always wanted their cards, so, this summer, two new Booster Packs will be releasing many of the brothers' cards. Battles of Legend: Relentless Revenge  will be the first on the list, releasing many of Leon's cards used by him in the KC-1 Grand Prix Championship.  That's right.   Cinderella , Pumpkin Carriage , Iron Hans , and many others will finally get their day in the sun.  Not only that, but the sought-after Golden Castle of Stromberg  will also get its release.  The Fairytale cards all revolve around this Field Spell, but it has a high price.  However, should you play your cards right, you can build a Deck around this dangerous card. As for Zigfried's cards, they will get their release in Shadows in Valhalla .  Yes, readers, t...

Hey, everyone.  I apologize for not blogging as regularly as I should be, but the truth is, I feel like I have nothing interesting to blog about. However, I'll try anyway with this entry, so, here goes. First off: I would like to thank WinxGirl34 (a user on DeviantART and on FanFiction.net ) for some awesome crossover fanfiction.  This person is a real fan of my absolute favorite groups, i.e. Winx Club  and  Disney Princesses , and can write excellent fanfiction crossovers, splicing the characters of Winx Club  into the stories of the Disney Princesses.  (Links are available above.)  A few days ago, I participated in a Black-Out session, boycotting the Fanfiction.net  website, in the hopes that writers like WinxGirl34 would not be deleted by the security protocols.  Let's hope ChrisJan34 continues to entertain people like me with good stories. Second off: A few weeks ago, my bank underwent serious changes: Now, unless I tighten my bel...

Hello, everyone. I know this is rare, having one update on top of the next, but I'd just wanted to share my thoughts with you on a new card that the  Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game  is currently planning to put into production.  (And, if we're lucky, fans of the  Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game  will also have the pleasure of collecting this card.) What is the card, you ask?  Well, for those who remember the  Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters TV series , there was one monster that was never conceived as a card, and it was created by fusing the 3  Egyptian God Monsters  into 1 being.  That being was known as " The Creator God of Light, Horakhty ". Well, hang on to your Duel Disks, fans, because that very monster is now being released in the  OCG  as a trading card—and the seventh one with a  Special Victory Condition , to boot. For those who may get confused about the effects of this card, let me break them down for you.  Fi...

Hey there, everyone. It's me again, Charles, and with blogs a little slow, I thought I'd let you in on what is going to happen next year for the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game . First off, the Egyptian God Cards are getting a makeover, possibly due to the near-impossible ability to summon the Sacred Beasts .  The first one that was redesigned was "Obelisk the Tormentor" , the card that was given to Seto Kaiba.  The next of the Egyptian God Cards  to be redone will be Marik Ishtar's card,   "The Winged Dragon of Ra" . So be on the lookout, Yu-Gi-Oh! fans—with any luck, "Slifer the Sky Dragon"  will also be redone, and everyone will be playing these cards in a Tournament.  However, this is what scared the original makers of Yu-Gi-Oh! , so the abilities of the "redone" Egyptian Gods  will also be "redone", so to speak. Next bit of news: A new Special Edition will soon be released to the dueling public, called Twilight Ed...
