ArmyOfMidgets posted:Well, it could be that Fusion Gongenzaka is the tall figure that went with Fusion Yuzu. That'd bring us up to 4 Yuyas, 3 Yuzus (including the unseen Ruri) and 2 Gongenzakas which seems appropriate. There's a like a 99% chance that he will summon Rebellion Dragon at the end in desperation and go temporarily crazy.

KittyEmpress posted:Look, they worked in the machine that monitors all dueling and tracks fake cards and whether every move is legal, so clearly it was all above board. Just because no one, not even the people running the system had ever heard of Pendulum summoning or seen or printed any of these cards doesn't mean they're illegal, the computer accepted it all so it all checks out. Is it really any worse then the son of the owner of leo corp having cards made for him and simultaneously being the best player in the world thanks to them?

I think you're forgetting about the cards literally being brought in from different dimensions being legal according to the machine as well.

dogsicle posted:From what little was shown, he basically had the frost monarchs to kill the pendulum scale cards? It doesn't seem like a particularly useful strategy when Yuuya would've already summoned 2+ monsters the turn prior. After seeing that X Saber deck nothing else seems particularly broken though. My favourite thing about that episode was that there was nothing gimmicky about the x-saber duel. That's how the deck plays if it gets its setup.

Momomo posted:It just feels like there are way too many cards to try and make a decent deck. Having to read a million different cards just to get stuff that works together is too time consuming for me to just jump into. I'm going to quote myself from the other thread from like 1,5 year back. Xoidanor posted:I would try playing again but the obstacle of having to learn how the Xyz-monsters and new meta works seem like an insurmountable obstacle now when I have work. and then just one month later. Xoidanor posted:I've been playing for shortly over a month now and I really gotta say the XYZ format is a lot better then the Synchro format that came before it. While some of the new decks are kinda bullshit (spellbooks ) the XYZ have really powered up a lot of old decks. Not to mention all the additional support for old archetypes (intentional and unintentional) that keeps coming out. Being able to build decks like Vehicroids, lvl 2 swarm and cyberdarks and go toe to toe with the top teir decks is pretty great. It probably helped that there today are things like yugitubers (so you efficiently can keep up with what is new) and the yugioh wikia (elaborate card tips for almost every card in the entire game) but it wasn't nearly as difficult as it first seemed. The best new thing is Devpro, it is fully automatic (like the DS games) so you don't actually need to know the rules by the back of your hand anymore to play. It's pretty great when getting back into things. Nuebot posted:This topic made me want to watch yu-gi-oh.

AnacondaHL posted:edit: Oh, that card. That's not even that busted, it's just the "random" that always works out in Jaden's favor even though I'm sure it's easy to play the card in a way to make the percentages really favorable. Also that card only showed up 10 times in seasons 1 and 2. Pot of Greed is in 59 episodes. Pot of Greed and Graceful Charity are the dominant writing crutch for most of the original and GX. They're gone by the time of 5Ds though and never return as far as I can remember.

Blaze Dragon posted:Man, part of me really wants to get back into the game (not having played since the GX era, and even there playing really badly). Is there a newbie-friendly way to do it? I'm basically at zero, and if I'm getting in I'd like to try to convince friends to do as well and they're just as bad as me if not worse (at least I know the summoning mechanics, the closest friend I got knows Synchro and that's it). The DS games are pretty much as friendly as it gets since they ease you into everything, otherwise your sure bet is Devpro. Blaze Dragon posted:my main problem is deck building which I don't really understand all too well. Here I can only recommend that you start looking up what others players do which is best accomplished by the yugioh wikia, yugitubers or the pojo yugioh forum. The basics are the same as they've always been, you should aim for a 42-40 card deck, at least 50% of those should be monsters in most archetypes and always fill up your extra deck. If there's anything specific you'd like to know just ask. MiddleOne fucked around with this message at 23:06 on Jan 28, 2015 |

Strange Quark posted:I dunno, the ancient Egypt stuff in DM kind of sucked once you got to see it. The ancient shadow games were talked up at every opportunity, but once you actually got to there, there were no games at all. Everyone was just using the monsters as another tool of war. And because of the whole Bakura running a gamesmaster setup thing, on top of all that you never got to find out what actually happened thousands of years ago. I just assumed that Obelisk smashed Bakura into a pulp in the throne room originally.
