Well, let me tell ya, this Dragon Ball Super thing, it’s got these cards, see? And folks are all riled up about ’em. They call it a “critical blow card list” or somethin’. Sounds fancy, but it just means which cards are good, which ones can knock your socks off.
Now, I don’t know much about these fancy games, but my grandson, he’s always yappin’ about ’em. He says there’s these characters like “SS Gogeta” and some fella named “Bardock”. Sound like a bunch of hooligans to me. He showed me this one card, all shiny and whatnot, said it was a “God Rare”. Imagine that, a “God Rare”! They say it’s harder to find than a hen’s teeth, this “Ultra Instinct Son Goku” fella.
- My grandson says some cards are real strong when they attack.
- He keeps yellin’ about “Saiyan Saga” being the best. Says it’s about some fella named Goku and where he comes from. Kids these days, always yellin’.
- And then there’s this “Final Radiance Starter Deck”. Starter deck? Sounds like somethin’ you’d use to start a tractor, not a game. But what do I know?
This whole thing, it reminds me of when my kids used to trade them baseball cards. Always hollerin’ about who got the best players. Same thing, just different pictures, I reckon. My grandson, he says you gotta buy these cards from some “official distributor” or somethin’. GTS Distribution, he calls it. Sounds like a big ol’ store in the city.
He tried to explain to me how the game works. Somethin’ about attackin’ and defendin’. Said somethin’ about a card that’s real good when it attacks, “When this card attacks,” he said. Well, no duh, that’s what cards do, ain’t it? Reminds me of my old rooster, always peckin’ when he attacked. And then he says the world was peaceful after some fella named Majin Buu got beat. Peaceful? Never seen a peaceful day in my life, always somethin’ needs doin’ on the farm.
They got all sorts of packs and boxes you can buy. My grandson says you “crack packs” to find the good cards. Crack packs? Sounds like he’s breakin’ somethin’. He says pullin’ a “God Rare” card is the rarest thing, like findin’ a four-leaf clover in a blizzard. They have these “Realm of the Gods” and “Rise of the Z-Legends”, all these fancy names. I tell ya, it’s enough to make your head spin.
He showed me some cards with bandages on ’em. Bandages? What in the world do bandages have to do with anything? He says it’s just part of the picture, but it don’t make no sense to me. And there was another one, “Son Goku from Wild Resurgence”. Resurgence? That just means comin’ back, don’t it? Like my weeds in the garden, always comin’ back, no matter how much I pull ‘em.
And these cards, they ain’t cheap, let me tell ya. My grandson’s always beggin’ for more money. Says he needs to “complete his deck” or some such nonsense. Deck? Sounds like somethin’ you’d build on a porch, not carry around in your pocket. I tell him, “Boy, you’d be better off savin’ your money for a good pair of work boots.” But he don’t listen, just keeps on yappin’ about his cards.
They have these tournaments too, my grandson says. People get together and play against each other. He says it’s real competitive. Competitive? Try gettin’ up at dawn every day to milk the cows, that’s competitive. Try gettin’ your crops in before the frost, that’s competitive. This card game, it’s just a bunch of kids playin’ around, far as I can see. But, hey, if it keeps ‘em outta trouble, I guess it ain’t so bad.
So there ya have it, that’s my take on this “dragon ball super critical blow card list” thing. It’s a bunch of cards with pictures of fellas fightin’ and yellin’. Some are good, some are bad, and some are harder to find than a good night’s sleep. And if you ask me, it’s all a bit silly, but the kids seem to like it, so what do I know?
