Not sure if it's just me, but I get the feeling that defensive decks get rewarded a lot more than offensive decks. Mostly because of the whole you lose LP if you attack a defending card, but defenders have no penalty at all. Plus there seems to be a lot more spells/traps for defending than attacking.
It's a lot harder to break through some defenses because of cards like Never Give Up which will prevent you from breaking through a high defense target by healing them full after each attack. Using weaker targets to trigger traps isn't really an option since you take massive LP damage if there's a huge difference between attack and defense. On top of that, if you trigger a chain reaction you're taking up to 1.5k more lp damage on top of that.
There's a limit to how many traps we can disarm, assuming we even have cards to do so. Revealing the face down trap won't necessarily help you since you still have to trigger/destroy it. The only way to really counter this would be to have a deal direct LP damage card, but those require you to be in offensive mode. From what I've seen so far, most of the cards with direct LP damage have rather low offensive power making them rather easy to kill.
So am I missing something cardwise or is defense just superior to offense?
