Ptolmy Kanast: Champion Duelist
@irrefutableDecalogue
CEO Of The Kanasta Corp, Former Lost Weeaboo And Several T|me Beforus F|duspawn Champ|on. When You Stand Before Me, Put Everyth|ng On The L|ne.
Some R|d|culous Handle | Have No |ntent|on Of Typ|ng Asks: When Was The Last Tournament You Won? Last Apogee Was When The Last Reg|onal Duel Luc| Tournament Was Held That | Part|c|pated |n, There Are Lesser Events But They Are For Lesser Duel|st And | Des|re For My Future Compet|t|on To Have The Space Requ|red To Become A Real Threat. |f You Merely W|sh To Ask What Was The Last Off|c|al Compet|t|on | Part|c|pated |n, Not Solely Tournaments, Yestern|ght | Partook |n An Aura Pageant After Be|ng Challenged To Part|c|pate By Some Cur That Des|red Beat Me And Take Kanasta Corp. Of Course | Won, |'ve Been Do|ng Jojo Poses |n H|gh Heels For Sweeps.
| Suppose Now, |s Good A T|me As Any To G|ve An Off|cal Statement On What |, Ptolmy Kanast, Compet|t|ve Card Game Duel|st Th|nk Of The B|g 3 |n The Modern Tcg Compet|t|ve Scene. Now | Advert|se And Declare Myself |n Assoc|at|on W|th F|duspawn Pr|mar|ly For Good Reason, Desp|te Me Not Be|ng Part|cularly |nvested |n The Med|a Attached To |t. Unl|ke |ts Peers, |t Has A Bu|lt |n Mechan|c To Prevent Powercreep From Escalat|ng To A Po|nt Of Ru|n|ng The Scene For Whole Sweeps. The |nherent Slowness Of Select|vely Breed|ng A Stronger Lead Creature. Sure You Can Buy From A F|dubreeder Scalper Onl|ne For A Powerful Bu|ld, But They Are Rarely Exactly What You Want And Every Breeder Keeps The Best Stock For Themselves For Future Generat|ons Anyway. The Pr|nted Cards Can Really Only Powercreep So Much When The Beasts Are The H|ghl|ght Of The Show. Now Duel Luc| And Mag|c The Scatter|ng Are More "trad|t|onal" Card Games, W|th |ts Own Tech, L|ke The Holograph|c Flapstract|on Bats For Duel Luc|'s More Off|c|al Games, But There |s Far Less Restr|ct|ons Stopp|ng Company's From Pump|ng Out Hand Trap Slop And Mounta|ns Of "problem Solv|ng Card Text" That Really Only G|ves Your Scumbag Sl|me Of An Opponent Excuses To Keep Call|ng Over The Judge For Clar|f|cat|on To Stall Out The T|mer. | Have More Thoughts On The Matter, But | Real|ze That | May Be Alone At The Peak Of The F|eld. Perhaps My W|se Thoughts Are Beyond Some Of You. But You'll Understand One Day When You Start Reach|ng For The Top.
o(≧▽≦)o KYAAAAAA KANAST-SAN YOU'RE SO WISE!!! ♫ (¬‿¬ ) These losers aren't worth your words of wisdom! ♫ (¬‿¬ ) They'll never get it~ ♫
R|ftbound |s Not Even |n Top 5 League Sp|n Offs Let Alone Top 3 Card Games.
Every T|me | Play Clue, There's A Second Mystery That Always Rema|ns At The Center Of The Game. |t Never Changes. An |nev|table R|ddle That As You Collect Each P|ece Of Ev|dence Po|nts To A S|ngle |mmutable Answer. That |. W|ll. W|n.
| Feel As A Soc|ety, We Need More Shonen Style Tournaments For People To Duel To The|r Hearts Content. | Would Host One Myself, But Beforus |s Lack|ng |n Large Concentrat|ons Of Decent Opponents That Would Make The Spectacle Worthwh|le.
Audrey 2 From The L|ttle Shop Of Horrors Had A B|t Of Aura |n Retrospect. Not Comparable To Say, Phantom Of The Opera Or The Count Of Monte Cr|sto, But They Do Decently Well As A Character |n A Mus|cal.
Once You Reach The P|nnacle Of The Blade, You No Longer Requ|re The Sword |tself To Accompl|sh Your Techn|ques. That Be|ng Sa|d. Half The Fun Of Saber Duel|ng |s The Aesthet|cs Of Actually Hav|ng A Sword, So Honestly Who Cares. Use The Sword Anyway.
>ᴗ< KYAAAA THE DUELIST GUIDES THE PINNACLE'S BLADE! ♫
The People Know That |, Ptolmy Kanast, Am More Worthy Of Be|ng Heralded As The Prem|ere Duel|st. You Better Up Your Game Foss|l Or The Future Shall Overtake You.
Art thyne Ganderbulbs WORTHLYSS? Tys quite LYTERALLY their tytle. Buffoon.
(ﾉθυ益θ)ﾉ OKAY WELL A TITLE DOESN'T TELL ME YOUR LIFE STORY DOES IT, BUB?! ♫
The future overtook me when mine name and deeds were erased from Historicall Record centuries ago. I do not care for reputation.
You Are "the Duell|st", Not The Sold|er, The Warr|or Or Some Other Ut|l|tar|an Denom|nat|on Of The |dea. You Should Duel For Glory, Pra|se And Honor. To Duel |s To Not Just F|ght, But To F|ght W|th Mean|ng And To Champ|on An |deal. Don't |nsult The Mean|ng Of My Ex|stence By Lett|ng Your Name D|e Out |n Some Pathet|c Wh|mper. Death |s No Excuse For Forgett|ng Your Dream.
My Moniker comes from my great aptitude towards singlle combat, not the motivation for doing so. I was many things in llife, inclluding a solldier, a generall, a tactician, and so on. But I was remembered for how many highblloods llost their llives in a foollish attempt to kill me in honorablle combat. I do not care for gllory or praise. I have pride in my skill and abillity, but publlic admiration? Such a thing was of no use to me. If these things appeall to you, I will not faullt you for them, but do not applly your definition of what matters to the term upon me.
Jumanj| |s |n Fact A Real Board Game, And Unfortunately, |t Does Not Mag|cally Wh|sk You Away |nto A Dangerous World Of Gam|ng. Even More Damn|ng, |ts Not A Part|cularly Good Normal Board Game By |ts Own Mer|ts. Whatever Opportun|st|c, Cash Grabb|ng Sycophant That Crafted Th|s Abom|nat|on W|th No Regard For The Player Expr|ence W|ll Fall By My Blade.
Don't Worry About |t Asked: Would You Do Anyth|ng For Power? Would You Cons|der Play|ng A Game That Ra|ns Meteors On Beforus |f |t Gave You The Power To Get Revenge? | Don't Th|nk Anyone Truly Wants Me To G|ve An Honest Answer To Th|s Query.
don’t. do not do it. do not a((ept this. do not pla7 the game.
There |s No Greater Tragedy For A Weapon Than |t To Cease Be|ng A Tool For Sk|ll Express|on And Start Be|ng A Crutch For The Weak. |t |s T|me For The Rock-em Sock-em Warbots Meta To Have A Long Needed Shake Up.
I was with you until the last part~. Not exactly sure what that all means, but I trust your sage wisdom~.
Your Ab|l|ty To Recogn|ze Words Of W|sdom Even |n A Sea Of Confus|on Must Serve You Well As A Warr|or.
One must always be decisive when grasping for victory~.
Anonymous Asks: What |s The Secret To Cr|spy Fr|ed Ch|cken? There |s No Venue Of Compet|t|on Ptolmy Kanast Dares Not Venture, So Of Course | Have An Answer. Use Tap|oca Flour |n The Dry Dredge.
When Opt|m|z|ng For Style |n A Duel, |ts Best To Remember That Locat|on |s Key. No One Has Ever Had A Sat|sfy|ng Clash Of Souls |n A Ch|ld's Bouncy House. But A Temple, An Untouched F|eld Of Flowers, A Rooftop Look|ng Over The Perfect C|ty Skyl|ne? Now You Can Work W|th That.
A llong abandoned battllefielld, llittered with rusted and discarded weapons perhaps? It has ambiance. History. Impllied viollence.
So Many Warr|ors Have Fallen On Those Grounds, And Another |s Soon To Jo|n Them. |ts Smacktalk L|ke That, That Can Only Be Set Up By Proper Battlegrounds.
Bakugan |s A Game That |s More Style Than Substance, But That |sn't |nherently A Bad Th|ng. Many Of The Greats |n The Past Have Succeeded |n L|fe W|th Aura Alone.
Super|or|ty Complex? | F|nd |t Qu|te S|mple Actually.
Ha~ha~! Another banger from Ptolmy Kanast~!
reall chitt ptollmy strikes hive once again
Anoymous Asked: Strangest Guy You Have Ever Fought? Strange |s H|ghly Subject|ve. But | Would Say One Of The More Queer Opponents |'ve Faced Was An |nd|v|dual Who Cla|med To Have "d|no Dna" As |f That |mproved The|r Ab|l|t|es At Card Games? |t Actually D|d Somehow. Not Really Sure On The Log|c There Though.
POINT OF ORDER! it can't hurt! https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/3b8bef8f783e.png
| Am Not Terr|bly Fond Of Gener|c |seka|. Of Course There's The Typ|cal Reasons Of Call|ng Them Tr|te, But My B|ggest Hang Up |s They Contr|buted To The Death Of The An|me R|val. Authors These Days Can't Handle The |dea Of The|r Prec|ous Ma|n Character Ever Be|ng Regularly Challenged For The Same Reason They Refuse To Have Any Support|ng Cast That |sn't A Flander|zed Woman That Has No Male Fr|ends.
DO NOT BLAME ISEKAI FOR THIS. THE BLAME ACTUALLY LIES ON A GENRE CALLED "PROGRESSION FANTASY." OF SOLO LEVELING INFAMY. A CURSED REALM THAT DARES TO ASK "WHAT IF INSTEAD OF PLOT WE JUST WATCHED THE MAIN CHARACTER'S NUMBERS GO UP?" THERE ARE PLENTY OF ISEKAI WITH HIGH-QUALITY RIVAL CHARACTERS. IN FACT WHEN I THINK OF THE IMAGE OF A "RIVAL CHARACTER" ONE OF THE FIRST THAT POPS INTO MY PAN IS BERN BUNNINGS FROM THE TOMINO-PENNED ISEKAI AURA BATTLER DUNBINE. DO NOT BLAME ISEKAI AS A GENRE FOR THE SINS OF AN UNRELATED GENRE. THAT JUTS HAPPENS TO BLEED ACROSS BOUNDARIES IF NOT CONTAINED PROPERLY. ALSO. I STRONGLY REJECT THE ASSERTION THAT "They Refuse To Have Any Support|ng Cast That |sn't A Flander|zed Woman That Has No Male Fr|ends" IS A REAL PHENOMENON. THAT SIMPLY DOESN'T HAPPEN.
You Know What, Very Rarely Do | Adm|t Fault, But You Are R|ght, | Am More Spec|f|cally Referr|ng To Progress|on Fantasy. Also You Could Red|rect My Secondary Assert|on And Remember The Word "harem" Ex|sts. There |s A Reason These Woman Are Somet|mes Also Slaves, And |ts Because Of |nsecur|ty And A D|sease |n The M|nd Of Troll And Man. |f You |mag|ne A Good |seka| That Goes Aga|nst The Tropes | D|scuss, You Can S|mply Assume |t |s Not Part Of The Slop | Desp|se.
Anonymous Asks: What |s Your Classpect Cardboy? F|rst, Do Not Call Me That. And Secondly, | Have No |dea As To What You Are Referenc|ng When You Say "classpect". | Assume |t |s For A Game, But | Have Yet To Play |t.
mage of mind? am i seeing teal and letting that (olor m7 expe(tations? i mean i’m probabl7 wildl7 off base, but. ma7be something of life or rage?
Aga|n, | Am Lack|ng Context For Any Of Th|s. | Am A Master Of Games, Wh|ch |s Cerebral So | Suppose That's Fa|r. And As A Master Of Beasts, L|fe |s Also Fa|r. | Haven't The Fa|ntest Of Clues On What Rage Means So Frankly That's The Most Confus|ng.
stay away from the mass hyster1a game don’t play 1t, 1t’s the one game that’s not worth 1t
That |s A Surpr|s|ngly D|re Warn|ng. Typ|cally, | Go Where True Compet|t|on L|es. Where L|ves Are Put At Stake. |s Th|s Game Poorly Constructed Or Someth|ng?
um. well. 1t does take th1ngs to an extreme where l1ves are on the l1ne, and generally much more than that, but when 1 say that 1 mean 1t’s permanent. 1t’s entry 1s permanent. anyth1ng you had go1ng on 1n your l1fe before 1s no longer relevant. and 1ts construct1on 1sn’t poor, 1t’s purposeful. 1t may start fun and challeng1ng but 1t doesn’t stay that way
| Have No Des|re To Go Where Challenge Ceases To Ex|st. Duel|ng |s My Purpose. So Unless That Changes My |nterest |n Play|ng Th|s Game |s Currently Nonex|stent.
Yahtzee |s Truly A Game Based Upon Luck And Your Fa|th |n Your Luck. A Coward Can Settle For Lesser Results, But A Champ|on Can Assume They W|ll |nev|tably W|n. Never Fear The Full House And Yahtzee, Or | W|ll Smell Your Fear.
| Am Qu|te Fond Of The Pretty Pony.
Just Watched Obsess|on. What A Bunch Of Morons. Anyt|me | Have My Hands On A Hypothet|cal W|sh|ng |tem | W|sh For A Dragon. Every. S|ngle. T|me.
u can wish 4 anything and the mc wished f/)r arguably the stupidest shit
Anonymous Asks: You Clearly Have Some Anarchy Tendenc|es And Used To Be A Lost Weeaboo, Yet You Are A Ceo? What's Up W|th That Man. The Or|g|nal Phras|ng Of Th|s Had Vulgar|t|es |'m Not |nterested |n Typ|ng Out. |n Any Case | Had A Feel|ng | Would Eventually Be Quest|oned On Th|s. To Th|s | Have My Own Quest|on. What Do You Th|nk Revenge Requ|res? The Answer |s Power. | Had Noth|ng Except My Trusted Beast L|eutenants When My Clansmen Were Struck Down By An Unknown Assa|lant. | Had No Means To F|nd The Sl|me Who Took The|r L|ves, Nor D|d | Have The Strength To K|ll My Target Even |f | D|d F|nd Them. Kanasta Corp Was The Solut|on To Both Those Problems.
"+nd where h+s this power gotten you? +ny closer to your go+l?"
yOUR DR1VE HAS ALWAYS BEEN ONE TO ADM1RE, kANAST-SAN, - n1TRAM-DONO
Shame |s An Al|en Concept To Me Venerable Treeaboo. But Know|ng | Have Somewhat Strayed From The Path |s My Greatest Regret. But Revenge W|ll Be M|ne At The Very Least.
| Am More Powerful Than | Prev|ously Dreamed Poss|ble. But The Tra|l To The K|ller Gets Colder Each Day. |f You Were Not A Poss|ble Suspect, | Would Be Concerned The Culpr|t May Have Already Been Qu|etly Sla|n By Another.
wHEN THE VANGUARD PARTY COMES, YOU W1LL BE OFFERED A CHO1CE. nOT ALL OF YOUR 1LK W1LL RECE1VE SUCH MERCY, - n1TRAM-DONO
