Hello again -w-

Good morning Vietnam! I'm Francis and I bring good news, The Synchro-Team is active again to the Organized Yu-GiOh! Tournaments... Why? Simple, I have been playing with my twin brother 9 years.... 9 years that we had to pay almost an eye from the face just for 1 common card... Imagine that you have to pay 40€ for one Heavy Storm, or 15€ for the Giant Trunade, the worst case of this Black Luster Soldier – Envoy Of The Begining 150€, Mirror Force 70€, and we used to live in Venezuela... where you earn just 300€. Let's return to the main, this Freak Advance Format is definitively the most incredible I've ever played...

Why could I think that? Hmm... let's make a short summary of all Yu-Gi-Oh! Advance Format. First... Everyone was looking for a Control Deck, Delinquent Duo, Confiscation, Dun Zanloog are just a few examples of those Decks. Solemn Judgment? Royal Oppression? NO THANKS, I WON'T PAY MY LIFE JUST TO NEGATE SOMETHING, JUST PREFFER SACRIFICE A MONSTER WITH MY Heaven Horn. But later, When the Chaos Deck Appeared, a new era was starting and nobody was ready for that Kick Asses Deck... Those cards whose effects are negate summoning were becoming more interesting to play.

However, The Forbbiden List of cards for this format appeared, and It taked the Chaos Deck... The Control Era had appeared again. But, in this case, there were new cards which definitively changed and started to PREDECIR the actual format, The Gravekeeper Deck had appeared and the powerful Sky Santuary Deck with the powerful Agents! Those Decks whose Field cards were completly breaking against others. And there were other cards that changed the game.. The Monarchs... Zaborg The Lightning Monarch was not alone anymore, Mobious, Thestalos and Grandmarg had appeared. The Monarch Deck was unstopable, or it wasn't? Gadget Deck started like one of the most Powerful Decks and is still a headache if it become your opponent. Gadget Deck is the first CHEAP DECK which could win tournaments against the most expensive one, (I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT ANTI-META DECKS, I AM TALKING ABOUT THOSE LITLE MONSTER, THAT ONLY WITH A FEW OF COMMON CARDS, WAS REALLY STRONG ENOUGH TO BECAME PART OF THE TOP DECKS!).

The Six Samurais Deck has appeared breaking the law and becoming the first TEMATIC Deck that won the Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship, after that... New powerful TEMATIC has been apearing like Gladials Deck (WHO COULD IMAGINE THAT THIS DECK IS STILL PLAYABLE AND STILL IS ALMOST AS BREAKING AS HIS STARTED 3 YEARS AGO?). But it wasn't enough... Yu-Gi-Oh! Needed more powerful Decks and the Darkness Deck was something unespected... Dark Armed Dragon was like OMG! And he wasn't alone, the Dark Magician of Chaos was his partner. Everybody could think “It's ridiculous, Darkness Deck should be banned... is to much” And I guess Konami was thinking the same because it was banned as quickly as his creation xDDD.

But... what happened? Why did Konami created the Lightlords Deck? Definitively One of The Most Expensive Decks EVER! For what? The Lightlords Deck did not win anything in that Format. It was powerful of course, but just a few of COMMON DECK CARDS were enough to stop him... Light Of Destruction was without any doubt, the best Booster Pack in that era...

Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's has appeared bringing the Synchro and the Psiquic Monsters, the Duelist Genesis was unbelivable... Gladials Deck got power... but that wasn't enough... Konami decided to make a Deck as breaking as the Original Chaos Deck, the Tele-D.A.D. Deck, 2 Synchros each turn at least... but he wasn't alone, the new Lightlord Card CARGA DE CABALLERIA DE LA LUZ changed the game. How? The New Lightlords Deck stronger than never, the Zombie-Lightlords Deck (Drawing as Cards as you want), and later... the Quickdraw DandyWarrior Deck, the Junk Deck, and nowadays the Chaos-Plant Deck...

Does anyone has though about the simple idea of having 3 Cyber Dragon at the same Deck? 3 Chaos Sorcerer? How about a deck without the Heavy Storm? A few years ago nobody could imagine that those cards are just 3 cards whose breaking effects are just normal effects... Now a days. Combos Deck dissappeared and the Tematic Era Started, We can chose almost anykind of strategy.

Legendary Six Samurais Deck

Clasical Gladials Deck

Control Gladial Deck

Gravekeeper Deck

Chaos Deck

Chaos-Plant Deck

Geminis Spark Deck

Karakuri-Plant Deck

Machina Deck

All of those decks could be found in a top 32 in almost any tournament, and obiously, the best of this format... the Cheapest ever. I used to play Anti-Meta as the cheapest option, but currently I play 2 decks; Machina Deck because I love Gadgets <3 and become a headache just for the simple idea of 3 Smashing Ground and 3 Fissure is adorable @o@; and the second one is a Legendary Six Samurais Deck, one of the best and not the most expensive. My Brother plays 2 Decks too... It's incredible, few months ago we left the game because it was too expensive for us and now, I am an European Judge... To sum up, just want to say thanks to those who read this and thanks to Falko, if he hadn't chosen me, I would have never started to play again...
