Yu-Gi-Oh! Community |OT2| You just activated my trap card!

Read the rulebook, these articles on problem solving card text (the basic format for how modern cards are worded) and this chart on fast effect timing.
Knowing those will put you ahead of 80% of the players in this game.

Bullshit kid, my Mystical Space Typhoon destroyed your card, how can it still have an effect? That doesn't make any sense !! Watch the series!!
For some reason I remember this being simpler
A lot in the older game was left to individual rulings. TCG-side it's been heavily condensed to be more consistent (and to save budget on staff who were dedicated to answering rulings). There are still errors in the TCG text on occasion though, and sometimes the text can't accurately portray what a card is supposed to do, so we still have to rely on the OCG except where there is a known systematic divergence (which is rare except for one topic).
Then they should do what other TCG's do and come up with one word terms with ruling definitions at a universal level. The current game is like 'if the text box isn't full, the card is most likely terrible.' lol
Pot of Greed says hi.

Sum up that first effect into 10 words. You can't do it while keeping it a legible sentence.]
And I already said that they're using the text to make a consistent text basis upon which rulings can be extrapolated. For example, kaiju were completely tcg original without ocg rulings for a year, but we knew how they worked (barring war machine) once we saw them.
Yugioh uses sentences, and that's still missing the second half of that effect regarding what to do with non cardians (edit: and it doesn't mention what's actually done with them). And lose is ambiguous, it could mean they cannot activate or they're simply negated, or in rarer cases any activated effects they do are negated.
Yugioh has substantially more complex card effect combinations than other card games that can have varying orders of operation or resulting triggers.
You're missing the point.
In what way?
Yugioh has no set rotation, yet it releases over 400 new cards a year (at a minimum. It's usually 500 or more). It needs the ability to differentiate its effects in any way it needs in order to reduce fatigue and repetition.
There have been efforts to condense verbs (possess and excavate are only a few years old) in order to reduce the redundancy of the language, but full nouns and phrases can't be turned into a single word without looking off: I am aware magic does this, I find it's text too inconsistent and simplistic.
The sole exceptions are summoning requirements and sub types, the latter the tcg is missing one of compared to the OCG (although I find the negative impact has been minimal unlike others). Although ironically changing flip into a sub-type has resulted in more text on those monsters themselves.
There could be a new card mechanic that could use a simpler format of card text, but that would be relegated to the new mechanic only.

Name changes confirmed!
OTS Pack 3:
Frog the Jam -> Slime Toad
Kinetic Soldier -> Cipher Soldier
Red-Eyes B. Chick -> Black Dragons Chick
Destiny Soldiers:
Marie the Fallen One -> Darklord Marie
Nurse Reficule the Fallen One -> Darklord Nurse Reficule
Why couldn't the B. Chick name change happen before Legendary Decks II :<

EDIT: I misread part of it.
that's ridiculous that you don't know what pot of greed does. but since I'm here ,I will tell you. once I activate my spell card,pot of greed. I will be granted the cards ability. now I will be able to draw two cards from my deck,which will conclude pots of greed ability. that was to let me draw two cards during my turn.No one knows what Pot of Greed does, though
Finally.
But it´s so dumb that they did it AFTER releasing the new Red-Eyes cards
Not even close when Excavation can do far more than just special summoning the cards revealed.

I still find it weird that the card isn't a red eyes in the first place (as in, why it was never a red eyes in japan)
I've been playing Duel Links on my phone and for someone who doesn't keep up with the franchise and the last one I really played a lot was Worldwide Edition on GBA, I think this new one is pretty good. There aren't a ton of cards in it yet, but I've already been getting schooled by dudes with strategies I'd never put together, so it's neat. I just hope Pegasus is in here, because he's my dude.
He might be in, I'm not sure if his new toon stuff would be though.
A Shame because toon Red-Eyes and Toon Dark Magician are ace
I started to play this game and a friend told me that I started playing with ABC since is the broken deck now and I could get it by buying 3 Kaiba structure decks.
Question is, which deck should I build from it? I know that there are lots of variations, and I don't even know what to do with the cards that I already have

It's... beautiful.
Just a quick update for all of you, the site has now reached over 650k total views since launch and has been gradually increasing in popularity every month.
We have a full card database along with a deck builder and deck price tool
Big updates once again coming in the next few days.Yeah, I bought 3 of em cuz I'm hoping to build an ABC deck.
It's not working out so well right now. So many cards I'm missing. Like S39 Utopia the Lightning. Dunno how to get it mildly cheap anymore
Dont worry about 3s9. Tsukuyomi is probably the most important. Everything else are just staple rank 4s
So apparently people who go to see the movie get a card of some kind. Any ideas?
And the DSOD Special Edition is a Gold Edition. 4 promo cards total, 2 per. You get a DM or BEWD and 1 of 2 other cards.
EDIT - Funnily enough, I'm probably closer to building a BEWD deck than an ABC deck at this point.
