I'm able to answer any and all questions related to the English Yu-Gi-Oh! game itself. This includes, but isn't limited to:
Deck Fixes: These can either be making suggestions and improvements on a deck you've already built, or building a deck from scratch for you. In either case, please give an idea of the kind of deck you're building, the level of play you're planning to use it in (fun games, small tournaments, regionals etc), and roughly the kind of budget you're on.
Please format decks in a way that's easy to read. The standard way is to put each card name on its own line, with a number before it indicating how many you're playing. Please split decks into Monsters, Spells and Traps.
NOTE: A level of reasonability is assumed with this. I cannot build you a nationals winning deck based on monsters whose name starts with the Letter 'A' on a budget of £4($6)...
Rulings: On any card interacting with any other card(s). Just tell me the scenario, and I'll tell you what happens.
I won't be answering questions on whether a trade is fair or not, or on how much X-card is worth, as both these kinds of question can be answered by using Ebay's completed listings page.
NOTE: I do NOT buy or sell cards, and do not recommend buying cards from anyone, 'Expert' or not, from this site. Any cards bought online should be bought from licensed retailers that will provide you with a receipt for your transaction.

Over the last few months, no less than 15 different decks have topped major events. This means there are more top decks around than there have ever been before.
The game is currently in a state of constant change that we've not seen since Phantom Darkness. Every set released brings new decks to the forefront of the game while boosting those that already exist.
The phrase "I Call Priority" is incorrect.
Priority is the ability of the turn player to ensure that their effect is Chain Link 1 of the chain in response to any action.
It's not something you call, you naturally have it just by being the turn player.
When you jump in the air, do you "Call Gravity" to fall back down? No, Gravity is just there. Priority is the same.
There is no such thing as originality in this game.
Despite how strange and outlandish you believe it to be, any deck you intend to build has already been tried. In fact, it's usually in my past questions...
Notably, the reason such decks do badly at regionals is not that they're so rare that no-one has tried before, but simply that they can't compete with the top decks.

Hmmmmm, my built looks quite different to this, though that's because it plays Tour Guides and Maxx "C"... A reasonable start, though the Lord of D combo is outdated and probably won't do you any good
The Requirements for "Number C39 - Utopia Ray" are "3 Level 4 LIGHT monsters" OR 1 "Number 39 - Utopia". It's perfectly legal to Mind Control your opponent's Utopia and use it as Material for Utopia Ray
Hmmmm, I'd make these changes: -1 Prime Material Dragon -1 Debris Dragon -1 Koa'ki Meiru Drago (useless in the current meta) -1 Card Destruction (This just makes Dark world eat you...) -2 Bottomless
I would assume that the rulings in this scenario would follow those of "Call of the Haunted" in that Tyrant Dragon would destroy Ninjitsu Art and remain on the field. This appears to be the ruling taken
I find it quite amusing that people are arguing over this... Since it's a question that Konami have endeavoured to prevent using their new Problem Solving Card Text: http://www.konami.com/yugioh/articles/?p=2947
