Buddyfight is dead but the cards are still here

    I see so many persons mouring the death of Buddyfight, saying the have so many good memories of the game. Yes that is a loss, but come on ! The cards are still here ! Your friends are not leaving to the other side of the world ! So many memories are still yet to be made.
With so many years of development, the game leaves us with so many flavors to be tested.
   You can play the game with the most recent cards, tuning the ban list as you and your group of friends wishes.
    You can play block formats, only playing cards of one block (first season, H, X, Ace...).
    You can totallly build your own formats with the set of cards you chose.
    You can build your own cube drafts.
    You can, and this one is my favourite one, play retro Buddyfight : old versions of the game, set a limite date, and only play the cards available to this date. Heck, you can even custom your retro Buddyfight : ban cards too powerful or "timeshift" cards that came too late for a struggling deck.
This will let you play decks and cards with unique styles that were unfortunatly lost in time due to power creep.
This will let you rediscover the game, through the years, due to powercreep the game completly shifted. Going from a slow game with few plays a turn that rewards you on picking the play with most risk reward to a fast game with lots of plays that turns that rewards you on learning your deck setplays and combos and forseeing how you turn will play out.
This is what I do with Yugioh, and that is a lot of fun !

All you need is to keep your cards and agree with your friends how you all want to play and you still in for a very funny ride !

Ps : you don't even need to spend money, you can proxy your deck if you don't have the cards.

Why I felt in love with Buddyfight

After the news of Buddyfight's end. I went back to my blog to write the article to encourage everyone to keep playing the game casually. I found this article that was in the draft.
I finished it to be able to publish it.
In this article I am only talking about Buddyfight while I was still playing competitively, before 2017.
Enjoy !

I want to take the time to remember the good time I had, and why I loved Buddyfight so much.
