Randomization: Cheaters and Cheatings

I'm beginning to worry about the future of Cardfight Vanguard now... Why? Thanks to a bunch of cheaters roaming around the community.

Well, CFVG is supposed to be a fun and enjoyable game, whereby even beginners will also have a chance to win. Bushiroad even brought up the hype of the game by organizing tournaments, providing shops with Promo cards for their own tournaments to attract more people into the game. However, when it involves competition, unfortunately glory and fame will be brought into the picture as well.

Recently, a large-scale CFVG tournament was held. Me and my team-mates all went to give it a shot as our entry is free anyway. Unfortunately out of the 7 of us, only 2 made it to the top 4, and despite all the amazing efforts that one of my team-mate showed, he still lost to a beginner, ending up in 2nd place.

When I thought that the beginner's luck was incredible, and that's when I found his secret to winning - cheating.

How he cheated? Well, that way of cheating is kind of subtle in a sense that it's not like just marking your triggers and such normally. He did mark his triggers, but without knowing how he did it, nobody would know how it's done. The secret of his cheating was the sleeve guard, or more commonly known as the outer sleeve. He took advantage of the different cutting on both edges of the sleeve guard, sleeve in the triggers by flipping over the sleeve guard to the other side. When stacked together with the 'normally' sleeved cards, you will be able to see an obvious difference on the edges (the odd ones were the triggers). By having enough eyesight practice, basically that person will have the ability to anticipate triggers accurately.

I heard that quite a number of my friends were going to quit CFVG thanks to the game turning into a very unhealthy one thanks to these people. What I can say is that I know all of us wanted to win, but were you that desperate to cheat to win? So you win, but is it through your own skill? No, you're just depending on some stupid method where only noobs will use, and hence you'll still be a noob if you don't cheat. If you think that because that you can't win in some other card games and jumping into  CFVG can let you instantly be a pro, think again. If you don't cheat, we can just step you and crush you like an ant. Remember, without cheating, you're nothing.

So, to all those cheaters out there, grow some balls and face us with your own capabilities. If you really win because you're good, we'll gladly recognize your skills as a Cardfighter. If not, you'll only make a lot of enemies and indulging in the hopeless illusion that you're a strong and skilled player. One will never be invincible forever, as for you all, you all were not even close to being strong. You all are just a bunch of cowards that want admiration from those other people out there.

To make things short, I hope that when WGP comes, it'll be a fair and square tournament where only the best wins, not those that are best in cheating.
