SO LONG, AND THANKS FOR ALL THE FISH EDITION
Well it's been fun kids, but as of today I'm done making Destructoid cards. Unfortunately, I don't have much time, so the notes for these cards aren't going to be my usual extended commentary, rather they'll be extremely short but (hopefully) still informative, and should be enough to understand the various abilities. Sorry guys :(
At least this pack has 10 right? :D
Note: this pack was the first one made with some outside input. Thanks to everyone that was in Stickam the other night (the night of the insane nazi admin), you made my life easier :D
Before I leave the country I'll be putting up a big wrap-up post containing links to .rar files containing all the jpegs and Photoshop files that I've made/worked with, so stay tuned for that coming in the next day or two. Now enough with the babbling...
FINISH HIM!

Serious Dickbutt

Charlie Suh card notes:
- Charlie is Azn, thus Azn jokes are hilarious/original.
- When you get the Charlie card you MUST make up/yell out the longest most ridiculous attack name you can think of regardless of the game you are or aren't playing.
- Pillow fort: see his sidebar

Yotsuba

Dick McVengeance card notes:
- Editor!

-
Gay for Bridget (Thanks someone in stickam! I think it was either Charlie or Rorsach, but I could be wrong)

Gameboi card notes:
- Editor!
- Pretty much every reference is from his sidebar

pro wrestling skits

Deadpool is fucking awesome. Amen.

Afterthoughts
I'll keep this short as much of what I have to say will be in the big wrap-up post coming soon.
Total number of cards: 85
Goal: 100
:(
Close but not quite. Rest assured that there are many people that I would still like to make cards for, but I simply don't have the time. I also would like to apologize for some of the slap dash writing and whatnot in this booster, unfortunately I was sort of rushing to get these out.
Watch for that wrap-up post kids!

These have been epic.
lol awesome man :) I wish a card would have been given to my awesomeness but no card can capture the pure awesome of me. but overall every card made me laugh so nice job!
For some reason I'm getting the mental image of Juggernaut replacing Ed in Shawn of the Dead when I think about that song...
Nice work GHost.
These are EPIC Ghost. Love Gameboi's and Juggie's. Awesome work as usual bro!
AMAZING
Are we missing any major players? (I don't want to be elitist, but let's be realistic -- we need to stick to the more well-known members, or else this will be endless.) I might be willing to try to make a few extra cards. Are there any non-player cards needed, like a card for beer or a sack of oranges or something? I don't know much about card games, so I'm not sure how such things work.
I'm not committing to anything, but I love puttering around with Photoshop, so...
I'm pretty impressed you made 85 of them. Pat yourself on the back.
Fantastic work man! Thanks so much for your contributions, you will be remembered when you're in farawayland.
You're a gentleman and a scholar. Have a great trip!
Bitchin'!
nice pack of card. Good job.
Have fun saving the world GHost!
farewell man.
Have a good trip dude.
These have been great, hope you enjoy your trip.
Amazing job Ghost. Thanks for all your hard work!
Have a great time out there GHost!
Hahaha so funny dude I have no idea how you do it.
good stuff.
A fine way to bow out and 85/100 is still a first class mark so puff out that chest and feel proud while you're gallivanting around the globe!
@Everyone
I'm not gone quite yet, but thanks for all the well-wishes :D
@Sharpless
Man there's so many. Here's just off the top of my head:
- Golden Donut
- Rockvillain
- Riser Glen
- Yashoki
- Caffeine Powered
- Pedro
- Phist
- Many of the people in the comments of this post
- Eternal Death Slayer
- Banj
- Serpentish
- Ashley Davis
Yadda, yadda. The list goes on and on and on. You're right though: if you do one for EVERYONE, then you'll never finish. Just pick whichever names jump out at you. That's mostly what I did ;)
Oh yeah,
- Gamegoblin
- Dr. Boa
- Ub3rslug
- Redzie
- Reaprar
...
Fucking around in the cblogs was back when there was an HTML exploit and people were using it to play songs and such on the main page.
Also, I'm no longer features editor. Anthony did a much better job than me while I was away, so it's his job now.
Awww...I didn't make it, but there are plenty of more deserving members than I so I can't complain. But great job on these, I enjoyed seeing all of them and have fun on your trip
omg omg!
OH DEAR GOD THAT'S SO MUCH WIN I'M GOING TO MAKE A MASSIVE ONE AND FRAME IT <3========8
SO MUCH WIN!!!
Amazing! We need moar!
Awesome as always!
Again, you are awesome, GHost :)
Awesome. Glad to see that you didn't forget about me!
I wasn't included. Therefore, I am worthless.
*SPEECHLESS!*
I'm gonna miss these. Oh well, they'll be back soon.
Charlie's one is awesome! Also, it's good that you take a break from this ;)
Lol @ Qais' face on his card. :OD
Damn fine work you've done.
God, thanks GHost for your awesome work. You're a maniac and we love you for it!
I’m in awe that you’ve done 85 of these, man. Great work!
Horay!!!!! and finally someone draws a Cowzilla. The angry banana may have to go into retirement. You sir, rock.
@DMV
Sorry man, my bad :(
GHost, could you please hook me up with some PSD files? There are some parts of the cards I don't think I can duplicate properly. Again, not committing to doing this, but I might give it a shot. I definitely won't be as awesome, but why not try at least.
GHost, you are fucking awesome!!!
@Sharpless
Right now I can't get to my computer, but I'll be posting all of my .psd files either tomorrow or the next day.
Why havent these cards been displayed on the front page?
Darn there should have been a Ventrilo peps card that combines the regulars of Vent together to make a super Vent!!!!
These are still awesome.
A worthy conclusion, my friend. Always leave them wanting more. Unless "them" is your infant child, and "more" is oxygen.
Dude, these have been freaking amazing. I wish you well, man. Good luck out there.
Hahahahaha I love how the BuckF1tches one came out, though you have to give Pedro the credit for the actual pic. I just laugh hysterically at it every time I see it XD
Epic series man! I was watching burling part those geese while Pedro snapped pics, I knew it was history in the making.
