One Step Beyond: Kamiza’s Kingdom, A Bit of an Introduction
Welcome to my first contribution to Metagame.com. My name is Steve Garrett, but some of you may know me by my online screen name, Kamiza. I’ve been involved with Vs. System and the online Vs. community since the game’s earliest days.
My writing will focus on the area I know best: the casual game. I’m afraid you will not find any ridiculous game-breaking tech here. My latest Emperor Joker deck will have to remain secret for now, and The Donkey Club would have my kneecaps if I revealed the fact that all their decks come from me. (Well, maybe that is a little bit of a stretch. I did read Dave Spears’s blog once—that surely must count for something.) What I do hope to show is just how important and entertaining the casual side of Vs. System is. Pro Circuit champions may come and go, but the Hobby League remains eternal!
I would like to begin by talking about one of my favorite topics: me! From what I gather, the story of how I became involved in Vs. is quite unique and demonstrates how important the casual game is to the longevity of the game.
I find it hard to comment too much on it, since it really didn't say much about the game, just stuff about you (some of which I already knew). You did leave out the part about your irrational fear of Tony the Bronze Tiger.
A sample of style was all I needed, though. Keep up writing more articles and I'll have to go stop by Metagame more often.
I enjoyed it as well. Your path in to VS was much like mine in that I had never given a thought to playing a CCG before and thought it horribly geeky. I was on a trip and picked up the FF starter at a Walmart b/c I had forgot my PSP. I always was sort of a closet comics fan though, so I was sucked in pretty easy.
Keep the articles coming and try and keep the game alive in these hard times for European VS.
Thanks for the feedback guys. The articles will definitely be focusing on the fun, casual side of the game. There won't be game breaking tech in each article but I hope there is something in there that people will enjoy and connect with.
