I read this yesterday to my yugioh club members.
I gotta say ive seen my fill at times with Upperdeck when it comes to the Yugioh game but this time I feel they've gone TOO FAR! This is Rediculous! I want you to read these everyone! Share em! Post em! Get the message out there!!!
I love the game myself but this is NOT what the game is all about!!
(I want to make this perfectly understandable! What you are about to read nothing is altered! On the first one i just underlined a certain sentence.)
First one: This was handed out to parents at the Force of Breaker Sneak Preview:

Might?..Might just win a prize along the way? Wow i meen freeking wow.....thats a real encouraging message to send a parent and to there kid(s).
Most events like this one you have to pay 20.00 bucks to compete! 20.00 bucks!! And the might part is true because only a certain amount of people earn a prize at certain events.
Everyone else(like what happened to me at shonen lol )left out in the dust!!At least at a sneak peek you do get something no matter if you win or lose.(even though people cheat to win)
Now this one man..this just....
Ok..now if you thought that was somthing READ THIS!!! This just came out from the new Syrus Starter Deck.
Its a beginners guide. Keep in mind this is the first 2 pages of the guide!!! First two pages!!!

Ok now....am I reading how to play a game? Or am i reading what sounds to me like a franchising messsage to kids!? Get more cards by buying our booster packs! Ask for them for your B-day! OH!! Dont forget the Tins where you get those nice and pretty looking tin cards. (Tins that cost over 20.00 bucks!! )
PArents really dont understand sometimes the sophistication of the way this game is played. You have people my age that play this game and even older! (im 27 btw)
The game IS NOT ABOUT MAKING MONEY!!! Its stuff like this that no wonder draw parents and people away! This is not the way to do it!! Its wrong! Its unethical and its just deep down damn not right!
Anyways im putting my hand up and saying..ENOUGH! This needs to stop!
The game is about fun and challenge! Not greed! Thats what i do with my club. We help them with enjoying the game and not the greed! Please feel free to comment people. I want to know what you think about this!
I want you say what you FEEL about this!
Thank you for your time.
