This article follows the evolution of Antimeta to it's climax of second place at YCS Milan

Introductions

Hi there! My name is Steven Parkes, but I am known as "Pixie" throughout the country. (Don't ask, childhood nickname gone bad). I am 19 and from Wolverhampton in England.

This blog will be primarily focused on the Yu-Gi-Oh Trading Card Game. A game I have been playing for seven years now, with some degree of success. I have qualified for each national championship for the last three years, Pharaoh Tour finals each year it was run, Fortune Tour finals since it's inception. I also recently travelled to YCS Milan, where my deckbuilding prowess earned me a deck feature from Konami.

That said, I am better known for my deckbuilding skills rather than my playing. I take the opportunity to judge or write coverage for events. Judging and writing are another 2 of my strong points. I recently wrote coverage for the 2nd Ukaypro championships in February 2010, and I have since been chosen to join the media team on the ukaypro.co.uk website. Writing Yu-Gi-Oh material and articles. This has led me to setting up this blog, to provide a new perspective on the game from someone who knows the intricate mechanics of the game, rather than just a hardened veteran player.

I'll be making two, maybe three posts a week, and will eventually get around to setting up features and segments.

Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog, and come back soon for something that I, personally, am really excited to see grow and blossom, and eventually giving something back to the players.
