Damn this is a tough choice. I'll have to go for...

Ruby Deck.

 

Let's do this.

Ruby deck.

Ruby.

Combine them all. Tell no one.

Rewby deck.

>>113779
Take a fourth option: DIVE QUEST DECK!

>>113790

Fifth Option: Knight Blades deck!

Or Ruby Deck. Whichever.

PokemonQuest: BeerBrown deck.

Ruby. Hopefully they're first edition.

Ruby.
Cjopaze demands it.

-Karen reaches out and grabs the Ruby Starter Deck-

Her friend speaks up.

"Aren't you a little to old for this game?"

"No one asked you!"

-she purchases the deck and opens it-

>Allow me to explain the rules

>It's pretty much the same as that one card game. You know, the good one.
>There are a few differences however. You do not need to sacrifice monsters to summon other one. You only have 2000 Health Points and the deck only consist of twenty cards. That is all. You guys should know the rest of the rules.

-The deck has the following cards-
Monsters
Ruby 1000 atk 1000 def x3
Tom 1200 atk 1000 def x3
Red 1500 atk 0000 def (Can attack directly. If this card does so it is destroyed during the end phase. Halve all damage done by this card)
EmoBird 0000 atk 1700 def (this card cannot be normal summoned)
Left Hook Ruby 2000 atk 1000 def (this card can only be summoned by the effect of Left Hook)
The Right Arm of Ace 0100 atk 0100 def
The Right Leg of Ace 0100 atk 0100 def
Ace the Awesome 1000 atk 1000 def (If you have all the Ace cards in your hand you win)
The Left Arm of Ace 0100 atk 0100 def
The Left Leg of Ace 0100 atk 0100 def

Spells

Left Hook (Equip only to Ruby. she gains 500 atk and def. Tribute ruby and this card to summon Left Hook Ruby from your hand deck or graveyard)
Fanservice (Your opponent cannot attack for one turn)
Healing chamber (special summon one monster from your gravyard)
Ruby's Eye (see your opponents next draw)

Traps
Jay's Drakness (Special summon one Emo Bird from your hand deck or graveyard)
Button Button (Roll a six sided die. If you get a six destroy one monster your opponent controls)

>>113799
Eh... everyone starts out small, I guess.

>>113799
Hmm, not too much to work with. Can we get some booster packs?
I hear there's a rare Elemental Plane of Teeth card out there, as well as a BLUDGEONY CANESHOVEL.

>>113809

-Karen spends ten more monies and buys a booster pack-

She gets....

1 KoroKoro 0000 atk 0000 def
1 Mind Crush! (Activate only when you have a face up Sanya. Both you and your opponent lose half their Health Points)

"OMG I GOT A SUPER RARE!"

1 Silver Key -SR- (Add one card from your deck to your hand)
1 Tom n Ruby Go! 2200 atk 1000 def (Sacrifice one Tom and one Ruby to special summon this card from your hand or deck)
1 Tres's gaze (your opponent take 300 direct damage)

"Not a bad pull"

>>113818
Ooh! A Tom n Ruby Go!!
That's perfect!
Shame we don't have a Sanya, though.
Do you know anyone who wants a Mind Crush!? We could trade it for something more useful to us.

>??? Oh that's... God I forgot his name. He's like a super huge The Game fan. His entire deck is based arounf them. I think he owns the potion of QUESTS TCG that makes The Game cards.

>What should a say to him?

>>113832
Ask him how much money he's willing to pay for it.

>>113832

-Karen kicks him square in the nuts. The man doubles over in pain-

"Don't you dare threaten to take my cards again punk."

"Y-You bitch...."

-he falls down. Job well done-

Step back quickly, prepare card tearing.

Kick him again and take his cards.

>>113860
Make him look you in the eyes. "I'm a what?"

Hold him by the cuff. He is yours now. Let him know that.

>>113869
Don't forget to kindly ask for his cards. If he says no then you knee him again.

>>113868
this.

then challenge him over both of your valuable cards.

in a drammatic manner, change body type and personality by summoning the power of the orb!

>>113860
pick him up by his hair.
say that he's a sad boy to be beating up another person over a card.
Ask if he wants to hangout some time for being just as pathetic as you

>>113982
Well technically, we just kicked him in the nuts because he threatened to mug us.
That's not so much pathetic as it is self-defense, albeit preemptive self-defense, but he threatened to beat you up.
In a public place.
In broad daylight.
With several witnesses present.

Actually, I'm going to say don't take his cards.
Pick him up, and offer the right to challenge you for ownership of the card.
If you win, you get to pick one of his cards and keep it.
If he wins, he gets the Silver Key.

>>113984
... heh... prizes...
Don't forget he's been around much longer, so he'll have an epic deck. We'll die in around 5 turns.

And I meant that he's pathetic. We're pathetic for going nuts over a starter deck.

>>114002
Hmm, good point about him having an epic deck.
I will apologize for misunderstanding you on the nature of our own patheticness.
Some points of interest about playing him for the ownership of the card?
Karen has the Orb, and therefore guidance from an at least half-way competent source with an objective view.
This is blatantly based on YGO, as such Karen has the mystical "Heart of the Cards" (Known in some parts of Canada, Spain, and Uzbekistan as "Cheating")
Finally, how many people are entirely right-minded after getting kicked in the nuts? This guy is gonna be pissed, and injured. People make mistakes when pissed and injured.

"all right then! I challenge you to a card match, if I win I get your rarest card!"

"Accepted! And if I win I get the silver key and one more thing... You become my maid!"

"Fine by me!"

"This card match will take place atop my building, I'm sure you know where that is. Until then.."

-He leaves. Or rather limps out the door as Karen's attack has left him stunned-

>okay, I have a card match waiting for me. Is there anything I should do to my deck before it begins? Remember there's a twenty card limit.

Yes.

DON'T SHOW UP.

He will get burned so hard when he asks you about it later and you tell him you were kidding, and are amazed he actually took you seriously.

Rather, go up to the building right now and leave a note on the top saying "Did you really expect me to show up? Ha."

>>114313
Even better. And put itching powder all over the note. You will teach him to threaten to beat you up SO BADLY.

>and one more thing... You become my maid!
That's not a very fair bet.

Don't show up.

>>114345
he owns a building. do show up!

also, get booster decks. we gonna get acessorizing!

>>114345

Why not? She has already shown that she can overpower him.

My proposition is this: Win or lose, kick him in the groin again and take his cards. I have a foreboding feeling this guy is going to cheat.

Well, you should swap Jay's Darkness and Button Button out for Ruby 'n' Tom Go! and the Silver Key.

>>114388
Also this.

>>114426

>okay is this good?

>>114438
I'm for it, if no one else has anything to say.

Ssssssssssssure?

>>114438
Wait a minute, you took out Jay's Drakness (sic) but you left in EmoBird? That doesn't make any sense, EmoBird is useless without Jay's Drakness, especially since Healing Chamber can be used for something more useful. Let's take out two of the Ace limbs cards and put Jay's Drakness and Tres's Gaze in. I doubt we'll be able to win by using that gimmick anyway.

>>114557
Ooh, good point.

>>114557
Are you crazy?
We have the "heart of the cards"
Were almost garunteed to get ace.
Dropping the key to pull in jays darkness is a better bet
(key is a bad card. You draw it, and replace it with another card upon play. If it drew 2cards, it'd have a use

>>114651
Nah, man.
Key is search your deck for a card.
It's WAY useful early game.
I will agree with you about Ace, though.
Man, this is tough. Heart of the Cards, or good ol' tactics?

>>114652
HEART OF THE CARDS

>>114652
Good old tactics is never wrong. Luck favors the prepared after all. Just about now I almost wish that I actually paid attention to any of these weird cardgames, but I never did.

So I still think we should have solved this situation with the threat of more violence. We could have made him out bitch and taken all of his cards. We should bring knife with us to the match. That way we can still take his cards even if we lose.

>>114651
That doesn't seem like good storytelling to me. Giving the players an insta-win and making sure they get it on the first fight? Does that sound like good storytelling to you? It might happen, but it wouldn't be a good tutorial level...

>>114651
Well, it also says nothing about shuffling the deck after, which I assume is an oversight.
Wait, I can't even tell if it's a search or just a draw.
If the first, then it's like an Ace Piece coupon.
If the second, then the deck is technically smaller, which is also good.

>>114688
To clarify Silver key is a deck searcher.

>>114688
It's only like an Ace piece coupon if we use it to get an Ace piece.
It's only worth using for Ace if we already have a few Ace pieces, otherwise it'd be better to us it for either the Left Hook (Left Hook Ruby is summoned from ANYWHERE and is hella powerful), or Tom 'n' Ruby Go! (Most powerful monster we have).
It would also be useful to get Healing Chamber (Use Red twice, and he's down to 500 points).
And if it doesn't let us search the deck (unlikely since it's a super-rare, they tend to be awesome), than it still improves our odds of getting a card we need (if we get Silver Key in our starting hand, and we need a card, we can use Silver Key and the chance of getting the card would be 1/15, then on our next turn, the chance of drawing the card normally would be 1/14. An overall improvement in speed).
Another decision to make is; if we don't have Jay's Drakness, than what do we swap in to replace emobird? Button Button (a bit too chancy for my liking.)? Or Tres' Gaze (not very powerful, admittedly)? Or do we keep Emobird, and swap something out for Jay's Drakness (a dedicated defender could be very useful, but it requires having Jay's Drakness beforehand.)
Personally, I'll put my weight behind swapping Emobird for Tres' Gaze.

>Man you guys seem to be having some trouble.

>Here. I was supposed to save this but I suppose I can buy another pack. WOAH! Awesome cards!

-Karen got-

1 Healing Chamber
1 Orb of Infinite Psyche (Equip to one of your opponents monsters. Take control of it for 1 turn. It cannot attack nor can it be sacrificed for the effect of a card.)
1 Metal Glen (This card takes the place of one of your five monster zones permenantly. It cannot be sacrificed nor can it attack or be attacked. This card can only be removed from the feild by a card effect. All Ruby Quest characters gain 100 ATK and DEF)
1 Sevi Teleport! (Activate from the feild only when a monster on your side of the feild is selected as a attack target. Remove the targeted monster from play. It is returned during the start of the next players turn)
1 Greed (Pay half your health points to draw two cards)

>Pay half your health

No. This is crap.

Rest are good though.

>>114699
Well, if we wanna use Good ol' Tactics, than we should drop the Ace pieces for now, and put in all the cards we got in the second booster pack except Greed, and put Button Button back in.

I still feel as if the bet's uneven...
We should just lose just to get in the guy's pants. Then we can be married to a boy who's dad owns a multibillion dollar industry

>>114762
Well, other than that.

>>114768
Well considering there is a card game based upon the antics of a bunch of quest runners I think anything is possible.

>>114768
Why not just make him our bitchboy?

Come on bring a knife to the card duel. Some rich little dipshit won't be allowed to stand in the way of our strange dreams.
