Ah, the old school traps and magic cards, back before they were called "spells".

Yeah, once they started with theme ducks, it just went downhill. None of the older decks could even touch the newer ones because they made them so hideously broken.
Even my deck, that had a 90%+ win ratio couldn't even scratch a Six Samurai deck.

Depends which one you're using. If you're using a level up dragon deck, it works pretty well. Only thing you gotta watch out for is Tribute to the Doomed and such.

I never got to test it good enough...not only did I not want to bring my favorite cards to the grungy place I went to, but I had a competitive deck I used instead.

I never changed around my deck. My deck was MY DECK, not a tournament deck. I payed good money for those cards, and I'm gonna damn well use them.

I quit after Six Samurais, since they were just horrible. I can only assume the players have gotten worse and worse since then, since it was pretty bad even when I played.

lolz. Yeah, Celtic Guardian was one of the cool ones. Especially back in the good ol' days.
But I remember back when the game first started, how a 3000 ATK Blue Eyes White Dragon was unstoppable unless you had a Dark Hole or a lot of buff cards for a Dark Magician.
And speaking of warriors, one of my friends plays a warrior blitz deck, and it can kick my deck's a** pretty well.
