You really think someone would do that?
Just go on the internet and tell lies?

Every time I see this, I instinctively read it right to left.

In terms of card games, BW are going to be same as ever. Soul charge is really silly, Daigusto emeral DM turbo is going to have something to do other than just die horribly, and guarded treasure has the same problem as shard of greed. It has to sit on field.

Overall, It seems to be swinging from "Great, You finally figured out good card design!" to "Why would you release this?" to "This is going to be at 1 in a few months".

I await the full list with baited breath.

When a monster with 1500 or less attack deals direct damage to your opponent, excavate the top card of your deck, until you've excavated 8 or excavate a non-monster. If it's a monster, deal 500 damage to your opponent, and send the monster to the graveyard. If it's not a monster, place it on top of the deck.

Sounds fun! Jinzo #7 deck, anyone?

Celestial Sword - Eatos always being treated as a Noble Arms card is not as weird as it sounds. Its original name was "Holy Sword of the Goddess - Eatos", which includes "Holy Sword", the Japanese name of the Noble Arms. YGO wiki actually pointed that out as trivia, that, if it was released in real life, it'd count as a Noble Arms, guess they were right.

Dread scythe is Reaper Scythe - Dreadscythe, the equip card linked to Guardian Dreadscythe. Unsurprising that both are released together, though Celestial Sword - Eatos was a rather impressive surprise.

Also finally we get to know what Gate Blocker would do, I was interested since its original effect (opponent can't gain counters from Speed World) is impossible in real life. Negating field and counters is actually really clever, as close as you can get to the anime effect. I wonder if Gate Blocker 2 will be in this set as well...

So they're releasing Legend of Heart...in a completely useless state, as it requires three Legendary Dragon spells, but only Timaeus is in this set. Basically confirms Critias and Hermos are getting released later, though.

Also I seriously want to know Chaos Chimera Dragon's effect. In the anime, it was summoned through Admire Death Thousand, so we never get to see its original state (the anime lore says its "Death Chimera Dragon", but it's not shown). It'd be nice to see if Death Chimera Dragon is getting released in reality as well or this will be the one Number without a non-Chaos form.

Rank 6
0/0
3 or more Level 6 monsters
This card gains 1000 ATK for each Xyz Material attached to it. If this card attacks, at the end of the Damage Step: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; This card can attack 1 opponent's monster immediatly. At the end of the battle phase: You can pay half your life points to target 2 cards in either Graveyard; Return 1 of them to the Deck, and if you do, attach the other to this card as an Xyz Material.

What do you know, Legendary Knight Timaeus is actually pretty decent:

Legendary Knight Timaeus
Warrior/Effect
Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be Special Summoned with "Legend of Heart", and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. When this card is Special Summoned: You can target 1 face-up Spell/Trap Card on the field; banish that target. When this card is targeted for an attack: You can target 1 Spell Card in your Graveyard; Set that target.

Love that effect.

Relay Soul
Special Summon 1 monster from your hand. As long as you control that face-up monster, you take no damage. If that monster leaves the field, your opponent wins the Duel.

:stare:

I'm sure that you could made a pretty broken combo with this.

That one is easy. In the anime the condition for summoning Dreadscythe was Eatos getting destroyed, they were a pair. Wouldn't be much point in releasing Dreadscythe without Eatos being reprinted in the same pack along with him.

Kay Kessler

Except that It's already been reprinted twice already. Anyone interested in having a copy can easily get one. If they're going to reprint a card, they should have gone with Number 106, since that's both relevant to the pack and was only given out as a tournament prize, making it much tougher to get.

However LCYW has been out of print for a while and Dreadscythe just can't work without Eatos, is still a dumb choice though.

Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be Special Summoned by its own effects and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. If a “Guardian Eatos” is destroyed by battle or card effect and sent to your Graveyard: You can Special Summon this card from your hand. When this card is Special Summoned: You can Equip 1 “Reaper’s Scythe – Dreadscythe” directly from your Deck this card. You cannot Normal or Special Summon. If this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard: Send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard; Special Summon this card from your Graveyard.

There are some very particular choices of words in that effect that make it go from ok to terrible. It's a shame too because the equip is actually kinda good. :negative:
