Breaking Bread - I'm back....for now

For the last week, i've reached a crossroads in my yugioh career. None of my friends play yugioh, and Dueling Network can only bring you so far. I was on the verge of quitting yugioh entirely until i remembered Team Format in pojo. The team is dedicated to making alternate formats in yugioh, and with the recent banning or the team leader, the team activity picked up once again. It has since gone dormant once again, but this yugioh mind thought about bringing up something that i had since neglected.

It's time to play the Cube one more time.

Which brings us back here, i felt that this blog was more for my small group of friends rather than anyone that wants a peek. Therefore, I decided that many of my next posts will be card reviews, with a twist. While many card reviewers look at whether the card will affect the metagame as a whole, my reviews will more or less affect how the card will affect the cube metagame.

In MtG, we use the acronym BREAD to examine whether a card is worthy of being chosen. I will be using this acronym when reviewing my cards as well.

B – Bombs
In, MtG, a Bomb is a card that wins game. Simply put, dropping a Bomb would win you the game 90% of the time. Examples of a bomb are Judgement Dragon and Quasar Dragon.



R – Removal
MtG and Yugioh share this term, if it destroys, then it fits under this section. Think Heavy Storm and Dark Hole



E – Efficiency
These cards are the little monsters that your deck needs to function and so that your deck can continue to make plays turn after turn. Cards like Sangan and Spirit Reaper, with effects that don't necessarily win games, but are a great amount of help, go in this section.



A – Aggro
While efficiency helps you, aggro are the cards that hinder your opponent. Your 1900 attack beaters, Blue-Eyes, etc. go in this section



D – Dregs
other cards no one wants, card that may be high-risk lower reward go here. Think straight flush and exchange of the spirit
