Any good Trading Card Games out there?
#2
Twisted You have now come to a card master. Cards take up a huge part of my life. So huge, in fact, that I'm a moderator for Score's offical Dragon Ball Z and Yu Yu Hakusho card game message boards! Both of these games seem pretty unique to me.

Dragon Ball Z supposedly simulates a battle between two people from the Dragon Ball Z universe. Although heros and villains can't mix, many other weird combinations can occur, such as Vegeta being an ally to Nail or Broly getting help from Frieza (the ultimate Goku grudge team!). Many decks prefer to fight alone with maybe 1 or 2 allies, but there are also decks that actually depend on many allies, such as the Majins, androids, and Cell Jr.'s. The game, though long in duration, is very fast-paced, just like the show (they fight really fast, hit hard, and still continue for hours). The deck is your life, so as you take damage, you lose cards from your deck until you have nothing left and you lose. You'll end up countering your opponent a lot in this game, so if you're the kind of person who likes sudden twists, this is definitely the game for you. There are 6 martial arts styles, 8 unofficially, 10 card types, hundreds of characters, and millions of possible decks. If it happens on the show, you can bet it will happen in the game. You can win by either killing your opponent, collecting all 7 Dragon Balls (similar to Exodia), or just plain intimidating the other guy by being so damn powerful and angry. The only downfall to it is that it seems complex to the newcomer, though as you play, you get more familiar with it quickly.

Yu Yu Hakusho simulates a round of the Dark Tournament part of the show. Teams of 4 or 5 characters line up to win 3 1-on-1 matches against each other. If that sounds confusing, then think of it this way: two people on opposing teams get into a ring, beat each other up, then two more people replace them to beat each other up. This game is more simplistic than DBZ, largely due to the fact that this game is on its first set, so you'll have an easier time learning it. Quite opposite DBZ in speed, the turns are slow-paced while the game overall is fast-paced. Each character only gets 4 points of life, and no matter what the game is, you know that means a short lifespan. There are 7 teams you can use for your team (like Team Urameshi or Toguro) that give you special bonuses for majoring in that team, or you can just go Ronin and make a team with people from all over everywhere. Heros and villains do mix in this game, so imagine Toguro and Yusuke actually making a good team together! Really, they do! Unfortunately, only 3 deck types currently exist: beatdown (crush the opponent), control (control the game overall), and discard (force him to discard his deck), but these definitely will expand as the game moves on.
