    Honesty I find it so dumb when someone is teaching someone a new card game, and they use a super powerful deck and absolutely wreck them.

    Like what are you trying to prove.

    There was one time I did that in Pokémon, but only because my friend had never played and was convinced in a joking way he could beat me if I played with my good deck, so to go with his joke I thrashed him with my good deck and then we laughed about it.

    It’s like these people can’t stand to lose to the point they have to protect their fragile egos from a newbie.

    If you play with a new player use balanced beginner friendly decks like the Pokémon battle academy decks or the MTG starter decks.

      When i used to teach magic to others, id always give them my RB vampire deck which was a beast. Id then either use my UG trample which stood a chance, or if i knew theyd be a good sport id use my red win and keep board wiping till i was board then deal like 90 direct damage ending their hopes.

      But i was always sure to give them a great deck to play thats easy and fun. It was my deck though and i knew every play they could make and how to destroy it.
