There are two opinions here, and one is just flat out wrong.
As described in the WAR BOOK, teams are STRICTLY for COMPETITIVE play. You cannot be competitive unless you use the BEST, decks. If you don’t want to compete at that level, then don’t participate in teams/wars. This isn’t YO3 where teams are “social clubs” with no actual function. Wars are here to provide a HIGH LEVEL of competition. There is no way for an environment to be competitive unless it revolves around decks that are the best. You either need to use them, or use something that directly counters them…that’s how it works. If you want to play “for fun”, you can do that outside of wars. But you play wars to WIN wars.
Playing a weaker deck and hoping to win (in the name of fun) is like putting a crippled kid into a soccer game and hope the other team puts in a crippled kid too just to even the playing field. I’m sorry, but that’s not how competition works. If you don’t like it, then nobody is forcing you to be on a team.
If anyone has anything else to say on it, they can create another thread or PM me directly.
Locked and archived. Congrats to Genesis for their win, and to Asphyxiate for completing their first war!
