I'm sure there are Yaoguai and Guai images around.

Completely wrong. The "demons" in my world are "魔族", literally "demon race". What you said should be translated as "djinn", "goblin", or something like that; I consider them to be "less" than "demons".

And you know what? I don't even consider Abyss and Hell to be evil. To me they're just supernatural realms aligned with Darkness. And no, I don't consider Hell to be fiery at all. The Chinese counterpart to "hell" would be "魔界", literally "demon realm".

So you are converting a word that isn't demon, into the word demon? Point out some reference material for me where it says otherwise?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaoguai
Yaoguai (妖怪 pinyin yāoguĂ i) or yaomo (妖魔 yāomĂł, literally, "demon") is a Chinese term that generally means "demon".

Trad. Pinyin     English
妖魔  yāo mĂł    demon
妖怪  yāo guĂ i  monster; devil


"魔族" you said means Demon Race, but I've found it to be mĂłzĂș or Devil Race.
So if its Devils you meant then:

I don't mean to interrupt this debate about 'darkness', but I just want to say thanks to the two competitors who have responded to my question earlier in the thread. (killfer8, don't you have anything to say?)

I'm not sure if I understand, Kuroaitou, because there are lots of game mechanics that contradict my conception of Darkness.

Well, it was supposed to be a vague question, and I'm glad you provided an answer to it. Kael's answer, however, was a lot easier and simpler to understand, but whatever.

I did my own translations when I came to Canada and learned English. They aren't perfect, but they're the best I could think of.

Anyways, this has gone off-topic far enough. I'm tired about debating something completely irrelevant.

It has quite a lot of revelance. It is claimed that I was Evil and you were not when there is evidence that you epitomise evil entities whereas I do not.

The Demon you have pictured is bathed in fire and requires the offering of a sacrifice. You had even chosen Imagery of Satan before being called on the copyright of the image. I don't see how you can claim to be not trying to represent Evil with you card offerings.

[Bloodshadow]

Satan imagery or not, I would not try to ruin people's lives with Darkness. That's the point; I'm using Darkness imagery, not evil imagery. The only thing I have that's close to evil is that demon ritual thing.

But you are using Evil imagery. Satan and demons are Evil. Rituals of Sacrifice to summon Demons are Evil. Cultists Coverting people by force is Evil. Harvesting the Spirits is Evil. Dominating ones mind to take away their free will is Evil.

What about your Imagery shows Darkness?

I expected this...

Q: @ ALL: If a noob comes and tells you Darkness sucks and those who use Darkness Element are 'emos', blah blah....How will you respond?

Q: @Blood, Well, you lost last time to Miniwally while Kael lost to Xinef, do you think you have more experience than Kael or Killfer to win this time?

Q: @Kael Hate, Will you ever accept defeat from a worthy opponent, like Blood or Killfer, if you lose this time? (No offense actually, its just a question, not an insult)

Q: @Killfer, You actually did a good job in the War, but people overlooked you at this trial. Do you have the confidence this time to win?

My vote goes to the most sensible person.

I would question why they think as such, and why they needed to come tell me such.

If I lose, then I lose. Bloodshadow has matched me in Phase 1. Phase 2 is popularity, he might beat me here if the community wants him. In Phase 3 I will put forward my best effort to beat him in PVP. If he can best me in all of these categories, then he was worthy enough that he should be the master and I would accept as much.
I will still not hesitate to challenge him on other matters if I see that he is wrong but that isn't specific to Bloodshadow, I'd do the same for anyone.

He questioned you because you are now the Master of Darkness (imagine you are). He told you that because he actually has no knowledge of the Darkness Element, how will you respond to that?

Oh and thanks for answering my other question, waiting for Blood and Killfer.

I would have hoped that he would have been more polite and asked for some help with Darkness rather than telling me that darkness sucks. If he did ask politely then I would happily inform him about the great things Darkness as an element has to offer, particularly Steal, Pest, Eclipse and the upcoming Voodoo doll. I would accentuate how Darkness does not in general have a bot like nature, but instead requires some tactical thought and as such will be a more enjoyable experience in the game.

Thank you for your answer, Kael, and good luck!

Everyone running for master, I will now ask a simple question, the best answer gets my vote.

Darkness's main rival is light. Why is darkness superior?
