Oh gosh, I'm 23 years old and still working on my Honours in Computing hiii.

Cute, Useless Transbian.🏳️‍⚧️ She/her! Eternally puppy coded.

Love Yugioh, TTRPGS, Video Games.

Full time Computer gal in education!
If I had to describe my first two days back at University, it's like if your opponent opens a 1 card starter and 4 hand traps that counter you two games in a row, and if you offer them a handshake they punch you in the gut.

God, I've missed feeling obliterated like this.

Every game on MD I lose to Mikanko just feels so bad.

Double-edged sword for game just feels so gimmicky, and the game feels decided by "Did they draw the Kaiju + Double-edged for the Mikanko combo" or are they going to lose if it gets to turn 3.

I think Konami dropped the ball by not making Gold Pride take place in the U.A/F.A setting. (I want more F.A. support please It's my favourite archtype)

We have a lot of cute girls/giant robot archtypes in yugioh, but I kinda wish we got like, cute robots that turn into ugly old crones instead. Just as a funny subversion.

Yu-Gi-oh! The Trading Card Game! Except instead of trading you hoard packfiller from 10 years ago on the off chance someone makes a format from 5 years ago popular and one of those cards is a core part of a meta strategy

Every day, I get closer and closer to caving and going to play Yu-gi-oh at locals. But also, I like not spending my limited money on cardboard :(

Holy fuck, I love Armored Core 6???

Giant mechas are lesbian bait, I should have known

I love the idea of being social, I just hate the idea of making the first move. Like, how tf are you meant to talk to people about your crippling addiction to yugioh the card game?
August 29, 2023 at 11:57 PM
I've been thinking about it, and I genuinely might murder for a nice hot bath. If only if only.

Raging about a certain yugioh personality whose name is certainly not Eva because I am insanely jealous of how great she sounds. I am a petty, petty creature and she sounds amazing. Like, HOW???
August 29, 2023 at 1:38 AM
Alright Yu-Gi-Oh people, sate my curiosity.

What design space that Konami hasn't explored would you want to see printed? My personal favourite unexplored idea is Pendlum Ritual monsters, a very cool idea that has ONE card.

I woke up last night with one thing on my mind.

Psy-frame Kashtira. I don't know how I'd make this work, but it feels compelling to me. Psy-frames are like my favourite archtype ever, I just wish they were good outside of Gamma.

You know what I think would be kinda cool? A Yu-gi-oh rougelike deck builder. Keep the power level of cards around 2011-12, throw in some newer archtypes/cards and have 'relics' be like Duel Links Skills.

It will never happen, of course, but a girl can dream longingly of it.

spoke to new psychiatrist, first time phone call.

"Any history of mental health problems? I see you're on the waiting list for X gender clinic"

Wtf, we are speaking as a result of a complaint I just put in bc you'd had me waiting for my usual adhd meds for months. YOU SURE YOU WANNA SAY THIS???

Yugioh Players: THIS GAME HAS TOO MANY WORDS.

Outsiders: Yeah that's why I can't get into it, I find the new pl-

YP: UH ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID? JUST READ THE CARDS! THIS ISN'T A BABY GAME LIKE HEARTHSTONE OR MTG

Outsiders: Magic has some pretty complex cards like-

YP: LALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU.

Do you like Ninjas? Are you a fan of niche yugioh formats? Well, so I have a video for you...

I love falling asleep at 6pm and waking at midnight and thinking "Shit, I forgot to do my master duel login"
August 17, 2023 at 11:58 PM
I am hoarding bluesky invites like a squirrel hoards acorns for winter. Maybe I should give them all out once Summer ends

Me winning with Kashtira on MD: Wow this deck is simple but fun.

Me Losing with Kashtira on MD: THIS DECK SUCKS. WHY DID I STOP PLAYING TEAR???

The answer, gentle reader, is simple. I had the WORST tear games of my life and make some impulse choices...
August 16, 2023 at 12:06 AM
Who at Konami thought this deck should have been allowed out the door what the actual hell. This must be MISERABLE to play against.
August 15, 2023 at 12:41 PM
Me after playing literally 5 hours straight of Kashtira: Oh god I think I like this deck.

Don't get me wrong, I understand how infuriating it can be to play against but so far? I've enjoyed the mirror, I've enjoyed the lab match up... and I've enjoyed Milling people for like, 20 cards.
August 14, 2023 at 11:10 PM
Just had someone "brick" going first, set a monster and a backrow. I have one play, foolish burial Agido. I hit Tear Merli and Reinoheart.

They flipped REBIRTH JUDGMENT ON ME, CALLING DRAGONS AND THEN OTKD ME NEXT TURN WITH CYBERDARKS. I HATE THIS GAME.
August 14, 2023 at 12:48 AM
I haven't been able to play master duel or look at the internet whilst waiting for my internet to be set up- let me see. Oh, oh that's a full zone lock.

Shit, I'm going to have to actually learn what a Kashtira is, aren't I?
August 11, 2023 at 9:34 PM
I have like, OPINIONS on Baldur's Gate 3's ending and I cannot share them because apparently everyone is still in like the first two acts.
August 11, 2023 at 9:30 PM
"Yeah sure just log in to this website"

"Oops forgot my password"

"Oops it won't send me a password reset email"

Renting sucks ass please let me win a lottery.
