Lots of things annoy me, but these are the biggest.
1. People that don't know how to shuffle so they just throw their deck on the ground and move it around like they are kneading dough or something. I'll shuffle for you if you really have that much trouble.
2. People that curse/get angry and take the game too seriously.
3. People that touch/pick up your cards while you are playing to read them (which most of the time I can deal with), or even worse just lean over the playing area and read the card with it being literally less than 3 inches from their face because they think that way they aren't disrupting the game. You honestly can't even read it when it is that close. My ex-roommate did this and after I had asked him to stop doing that for over a month I finally got super pissed and smacked him in the face.
4. People that try to take their moves back after they've clearly played them through. Sometimes it is ok, but when they try to do it after I've drawn a card? Yeah, that makes me livid and I will just leave the game and let them win before I let them take back their entire last turn.
5. When somebody argues with you about something that is basic knowledge about the game.
6. People that won't trade a card they don't even use for a card they would use in their main deck just because they know that you want it.
There's honestly a lot more, but these really make me mad.
Specific example of #5 that really made me mad:
I was playing my Gentina deck against my friend's Kingphan deck last night and I had Crobat Prime up in the active with Gengar SF on the bench and some other stuff, he had a Psyduck up front he was trying to stall with and a Donphan and a few others on his bench. I sniped around his Psyduck with Crobat to his Donphan because I forgot the body works on the bench. I let it go, didn't try to take the turn back because I was already set up to beat him. Next turn he brought up his Donphan and hit my Crobat, and kind of got aggravated that I actually made sure that the resistance was factored into his attack. During my next turn, he tried to play my attack out before I had even finished my turn, but I brought up my Gengar and used shadow room instead of sniping again with Crobat. (Here's the part that actually makes me really mad) He tried to argue with me for like 10 minutes that Donphan's ability worked against damage counters too because they are placed through an attack. I finally got him to believe me, and next turn he just earthquaked me because he didn't have much else going on. Next turn I dropped a crobat G and brought my crobat prime back up for the KO through severe poison, which he also tried to argue about.
