I love the art and the naming of these cards. A lot of them have the little tidbit in the commentary box and I feel like it's interesting enough that if someone put a mind to it they could write a whole story on the character.
Case in point, looking through my brother's old cards today and I found this one. I remember this guy used to be my favorite. Practices sorcery, swordsmanship and martial arts, not to mention he can travel across dimensions? Damn, I wanna be just like that when I grow up hahaha.
of course I remember this one =p
ReplyDeleteI even tried playing this card but gee..I never learned. haha!
I was always more of a Pokemon person
ReplyDeleteyeah I prefer magic, eye of judgement ..etc
ReplyDeleteI have a big box with a ton of "crappy" cards. I never thought of that, though. You really could make an entire story on most of them easily.
ReplyDeleteThese were just after my time. I think some of my friends little brothers played though.
ReplyDeleteYou can be like him, you just have to set your sights a bit lower:
ReplyDeleteSorcery: Arthur C. Clark said that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic - so show off any modern technology to the Amish
Swordsmanship: obtain sword, start practising - congratulations, you are now a swordsman
Martial arts: take your pick, you don't even have to be good at any of them
Travel across dimensions: we travel through 3 dimensional space all the time, we even travel through time! But only in one direction
You are now Neo the magic swordsman!
haha my favorite was always Fiber Jar!! i loved that game
ReplyDeletehehe, one of my favorite manga by far. but why you dont want to be the dark magician, he is way cooler IMO lol
ReplyDeletethis might be a little bit after my time. did you ever have star wars cards? those were awesome!
