Yea I can't afford them right now. I just spent my money for some video games. And my parents won't allow me to buy a high price card. They say it is a rip-off. I sort of agree with them with the card trooper. It's just way too much

they're prob just gonna make trooper to 2 or limit dupli.

Probebly, i think if you have 3 card troopers, its a huge advantage to you. That wouldn't be fair in tournaments because the opponents won't have any most likely.

acid rain just destroys the card i have 3 sided in my crystal beast deck

Um...yay for -1's yourself?

Trooper is great. Not much to say.

according to the list ive seen then trooper will be down to one. i posted the one i have seen in the rumor mill

Oh that stinks. I think 2 would be better than only having 1 card trooper. They can help alot but sometimes they can make you lose. Most likely get your hands on them

I disagree. With 3 weeks to go to a new banlist, its just not the right time. If it does get restricted price will drop 5-10 bucks off the bat, and trade value will drop even more. If you need three in a hurry, then get them. Like den says, you'll still want to keep two and the third one becomes excellent trade bait if you play it right.

Just a few points :
- Crystal seer will never replace trooper. Its not nearly as good, especially with shield crush on the horizon. If trooper remains unrestricted, it remains king
- Trooper does not backfire on you. Whatever you mill, you may not have drawn had you shuffle once more, so what do you card ? If they are not in your hand, what does it matter if they are in the deck or in the graveyard ?
- If you can't afford to mill, just set trooper and it becomes a super-dekoichi.

It's versatility makes it an awesome card. We all knew that the instant we saw the DP spoilers and its never rang true as much as now.
