User blog:NovaTsukimori/Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game: Dark Messenger

Dark Messenger is the next booster set of NovaTsukimori's line of booster sets.

After many years of playing the game, after many years of observing, it has been noticeable that the game has transformed from a game that involves opening booster packs and playing with your favourite cards to a "pay to win" game. As the card game evolved, cards gradually became more and more powerful, turning what once was a Level 12 Synchro Monster that required so many resources to Summon but had a powerful effect and stats to compensate into a monster one can just Summon for as little effort as 2 Level 4 monsters or 2 Level 5 Machine monsters (looking at you ). Hopefully, Dark Messenger ends up being the much need reboot to this game, that fans could just open packs, build entire Decks from those packs and play for fun. If you pull a holo card, congratulations! You pulled a super cool card that you can brag to your friends and add it to your Deck to enhance your strategy. The cards in these sets may also appeal to competitive players, but not as much as the children that the game attempts to cater to.

Dark Messenger releases July 21st, 2018.
