 Cardfight Pro Highlight:

In truth, Bushiroad is a corrupt organization which has no interest in fostering a genuine professional environment for tournament play, and which actively works to sabotage the modes of play we establish for the game. Effectively immediately, all news functions of Cardfight!! Pro are disbanded.

 •The company's refusal to adopt best-of-three in tournament play, and of lesser importance an unmodified Swiss format. This year Jonathan Lee, sales manager for Bushiroad USA, brought a survey of more than five thousand cardfighters showing majority preference for best-of-three in tournament play to CEO Kidani Takaaki. Lee had previously tested the format at the 2015 Origins Game Fair, to mass positive reception. Kidani refused his request to use the tournament format in the world championship series.

 •I have helped create a second Konami. My ardent support of Bushiroad has created an exploitative corporate force which seeks to milk its player base with increasingly-inflated rarities that force them to either buy multiple sixteen box cases or shell out to an incredibly expensive secondary market just to have functional decks. The evolution of the generation rare rarity from a glorified triple rare into an entirely separate brand of Golden Ticket has destroyed the game's economy and locked out both the young and the poor from succeeding at high level play.

 •The gameplay stalemate perpetuated by the Bushiroad R&D team. Cardfight!! Vanguard has been spinning its wheels since its second block. The game has increasingly become about arbitrary restrictions that increase both cardfighters' ability to stall one another rather than actually facilitate plays that modify game state, and the escalation of subclan supremacy in place of deck diversity.

 My opinion & reflection (not of Cardfight pro)

 I myself is a long time player of CFV from block 1. However I no longer stand this kinds of corrupted business model that seek to exploit it's fans. Especially milking the English speaking player. Not only we have to deal with a dual treatment of "Japanese" card releases months ahead (come on, don't tell me it take weeks to translate cards from Japanese into English in today's world), but the fact that Bushiroad created this "Generation Rare" to artificially inflate pricing.

 We as the English speaking players have all the power to determine whether to continue to support this type of foreign company behavior impost on "Non-Japanese" card players.

Seriously, there are much better choice out there, and it bedazzle me why I took so long to come to being witness of this conclusion; that product of a homogenous nation, of embedded inferior/superior mindset deeply within the culture, are much more incline to possible abuses and exploitation of others whenever given the opportunity!!! 

 I declare no longer being the "cow" for such corrupted business practices of a foreign nation!

Uhm... I know I'm not in the position to say this... Correct me if i'm wrong but, it's not Corrupt it's just a Marketing Strategy... If  I needed to get more money then I would do the same thing... To Milk the Cr@p out of all CFV players... But.. that's not of my bussiness... and to top it off I wouldn't also make a Tournament (Real Life) since the Expenses would be too risky.. who knows.. maybe a small quantity of Player might join but not enough to raise the money and to surpass the Expenses... but that's just my opinion
