Hey I'm Gianni

Oh hai there, :3
My name is Gianni Delli Colli, I'm an 18 year old Italian-Canadian who loves to play Soccer and Hockey, (favorite team is the Boston Bruins) go out with friends (duh), listen to Punk/Rock and Techno, and play the Yu-Gi-Oh TCG game.

I first played YGO when I was 10 years old. It started playing on TV and everyone got into it. Not to mention it came out perfectly with Beyblade to help cause the anime craze in all of us. Of course, when it first came out not many places had the cards on sale, so to have any would be awesome. My friend was nice enough to give me my first card which was the Celtic Guardian. Joey Wheeler was my favorite character on the show and he caused me to become a fan of the Warrior type. By the age of 12, when I stopped playing, Obnoxious Celtic Guardian was a staple in my deck which included a Gate Guardian that I acquired in my first ever Metal Raiders pack.

Two years ago, I went to a card shop near my house to pick up some hockey cards of the Boston Bruins, when I saw some kids dueling. One of them was using the Flamvell Cat deck (which is dead since Kitty got banned) and I was amazed at the Synchro engine. It pretty much got me back to playing again since I saw Colossal Fighter was the best Warrior type synchro (currently since Goyo got hit). I also loved the effect of X-Saber Airbellum and it caused me to build my first competitive deck which were Sabers


I now play constantly at tourneys, and have multiple decks, the competitive ones being X-Sabers and Legendary Six Sams

Welcome here Gianni hf and stay active! Celtic Guardian was my first favorite card as well. Up to the time I first saw Junk Synchron that is :P

hello and welcome to SDA

Welcome! :)

Hello. Is this your first time in a forum? Do you know how things work? It's very important you stay active and you can do that by participating in competitions such as Card of the Week and Custom Card of the Week which are both weekly. That way you gain Credits which increase your rank.

welcome

Hello there Gianni :) It's nice seeing many players that quit ygo coming back!
Take a look at the rules and have fun above all!

I wonder if you're using KCVDS (or any similar online dueling program) and if yes, how you discovered it! (I personaly found it by chance)

Winduct Well, I used to do hockey simulation leagues which use the EXACT same type of forums so yes, I'm used to it I guess :S

Sinakis, yes I took the time thank you :D And yea I have used KCVDS to duel friends whenever we are unable to meet up.
Funny story on how I discovered this site was the fact that I wanted to know if Frog FTK would return with the release of Replacement Toad in Extreme Victory, google brought me here and I liked what I saw and was hoping it was an active forum lol
