Reminder that, prior to 2014, players used to have gentlemen's agreements, like siding out Djinn Releaser of Rituals.
But such players left the game since then (partially due to pends), and only the competitive ones stayed.
Just look at the Patrick Hoban Djinn Releaser incident from 2014, where he broke such an agreement.
Beloved Wholsome Chungus Leddit Yugituber Alex Cimo was defending that shit back in 2014. Guys like these are still around to this day.
Now tell a modern yugioh player to not play a card because it ruins the game? (essentially a gentlemen's agreement)
>"errrm I'd be nerfing myself!!!!"
Competitive cunts ruin everything.
