Well, I haven't seemed to be able to duel anyone here in Duel Academy (they're either never on or too busy to duel), and I haven't dueled in a millenia, so I decided to check out the scene at the Dueling Network. 4 or 5 duels in, and I noticed something... of those 5 duels, 3 of them were using the same combo: the T.G. Hyper Librarian card summoned 3 times to Flash-Summon a Shooting Quasar Dragon. 4000 ATK, 4000 DEF. Once per turn, negates a Spell/Trap/Monster effect.
Sounds great, huh? But here's my question: why is it overused? Even today, when I've dueled like 100 times on DN, nearly all of them used this combo: a similar combo of mine, using Turbulence and Fishborg and whatnot, but instead whips out T.G. Hyper Librarian to draw, like, 10 cards, then summons the Quasar Dragon.
It's a powerful combo, but it kinda irks me that people are too lazy to come up with their own combo, so they just copy someone elses: also, it's not that hard to beat. He can only negate ONE effect per turn, so if you activated 2 trap cards (like, when I activated Reckless Greed [which he negated], then I chained Skill Drain to Dimensional Prison), he could only negate the first one.
OR, you could remove him from the field, bringing out Shooting Star Dragon, and use an effect, like Brionac's, to bounce him back to the Extra Deck. Also, if you stop the combo before they can whip out Quasar, with Torrential Tribute persay, they're left wide open for a direct assault.
It's kind of gotten old, since I've dueled against this combo MANY times. More than half of my duels was against this deck.
