let's go! stage 14!

[dapper grotto]

I'm so thankful my PKs have been putting in work for the Qualifiers, but I'm just lucky that I haven't encountered any Agents yet.

[charred aspen]

for some reason my deck has an unwinnable matchup against ra beatdown

i don't think i've ever even lasted more than 3 turns

[charred aspen]

ough

[vital scroll]

I did like 5 times or more

[white stirrup]

Lavagolem is hillarious

If he still did 1k Damage it could be a 2 Card Otk

Normal Summon Golem
Use [Rebellion] in your Battle Phase and Attack

[vivid wave]

Rebellion

Effect

During either player's Battle Phase: Target 1 monster your opponent controls; take control of it until the end of the Battle Phase, also other monsters you control cannot attack for the rest of this turn. You can only activate 1 "Rebellion" per turn.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG/MD)

[vital scroll]

got him, now this will be easy

[vital scroll]

y'all, is this a good crystal beast deck?

[charred aspen]

I run 3 copies of Skull invitation and Fatal Abacus so unless it's turn 2 I usually have extra damage on the board

[vital scroll]

@sleek garnet what do you think?

[vital scroll]

recreating this, will continue this once I completed the red-eyes deck

[dapper grotto]

This dude took Blue-eyes to Dlv 19, with Battle Traps.

[timber river]

Battle Chronicle is a hell of a skill

[quick axle]

@timber river Probably nobody will cry when Battle Chronicle and that other ability get nerfed.

[robust void]

they have to make blue eyes skills overpowered because most people who play the deck are timmies

it has to be enough to carry bad playing

[dapper grotto]

I don't doubt it got a ton of nostalgia boys playing the game for a bit.

[robust void]

yeah that's the goal

just your annual desperate hail Mary pass to casuals

it was bls last time

unless I missed one in-between

[dapper grotto]

Especially with the new player deck making Blue eyes practically dirt cheap.

[quick axle]

I think it was BLS?

[dapper grotto]

Yeah, though BLS was also needing you to dig into another box in addition to the BLS one iirc

Blue eyes only needing you to buy the structure deck, along with digging into that Tachyon box once is a pretty good deal

[quick axle]

Why do I think that Successor Soul is getting the Limited 3 treatment?

[dapper grotto]

I dunno, I only play 2 Crackdown anyways kekw

Something else has to be Limit 3...

Like Ulti Fusion

Then they can't use the other staples.

[sleek garnet]

Unironically

Spirit dragon to lim 1

[pastel lotus]

is thhe darkfluid skill as overplayed as the rigaing dragon skill?

[sleek garnet]

No

Not even close

[charred aspen]

ok you're kind of cooking with holy guard

[charred aspen]

i think i have a screenshot here of me losing to a battle chronicle player who activated compulsory evacuation device on my lava golem

[vital scroll]

why

[vital scroll]

a question, what's the best crystal beast nowadays?

[charred aspen]

Idk it's a pretty funny skill

[sleek garnet]

i don't know

[vital scroll]

but is girag easy to get for the fire and ice hands?

[vital scroll]

let the pain begin

[dapper grotto]

Hell yeah.

[charred aspen]

I don't have him so I wouldn't know

[vital scroll]

congrats

[vital scroll]

might as well make this one too for the fun

welp, gotta save UR tickets for the monarch

[sleek garnet]

dont

use box chips instead

[vital scroll]

gladly I got enough for 1

[vital scroll]

mega monarch ain't there

[sleek garnet]

oh wait

its just a regular event card

use normal tickets on it

[robust void]

ok I want to speak to one of konamis lawyers about how this has happened to me multiple times in months

that seems statistically almost impossible

[vital scroll]

need to get new UR cards again, bc I wasted them

[vital scroll]

what? last pack with 1 SR and 2 Normals?

[robust void]

battle chronicle's search skill not being once per duel makes me wanna throw up

sure wish my pet deck got to cheat

[molten needle]

guys how to make this deck structure better? it's bad

[quick axle]

I'm not gonna sugarcoat it.

It's bad.

[molten needle]

super bad

i'll change the whole thing

i was interested in dark magician, but i don't have the circle spell or the navigator

super confused

thought of playing this structure

[quick axle]

Yeah, you ain't making a good deck outside a single copy of a structure.

Those are beginner's traps.

[molten needle]

should i open more boxes and get more choices?

[quick axle]

Before anything else, I'd suggest starting again from scratch, and then check Duel Links Meta for how to have a better idea on how to build a deck you want.

[molten needle]

how can i use it?

[quick axle]

https://www.duellinksmeta.com/

[mighty bramble]

Can I get away with just one copy of this guy

[sleek garnet]

You can

[vital scroll]

how can I get card of the soul now actually? can't find it in the boxes

bc idk if I wanna try to test my luck on the anniversary box

[sleek garnet]

There's a "how to obtain" button in game next to the cards while in the deckbuilding screen

Please just use that instead of pinging me daily

[vital scroll]

alright

[robust void]

@sleek garnet I've run through all rush boxes 3 times again. except for the EX box which I've done once. do you think I should keep digging

[sleek garnet]

Probably grab the 3rd siesta torero

Gold rush is also nice to have 2 of, but i've seen people running only 1, so

[robust void]

oh man a whole other 2 digs

[small venture]

is running one copy of torn scales a good idea?

[sleek garnet]

Its ok but not ideal

2/3 is better

[small venture]

also, how is dark requiem's negate once per turn?

[sleek garnet]

your skill does that

[small venture]

oh ok

[sleek garnet]

Not really

You're only playing 1 of your good cards

Something like this

[small venture]

im so livid

im trying to pull infestation terminus, and i got 2 ur and 2 sr

i swear pulling a rare is harder than pulling a ur

[fallen kestrel]

Took me like 110 packs to get my first sunvine maiden

[white stirrup]

Bruh

Took me a bit more then 40 to get Genius

[pastel lotus]

i think timer should give you 10 seconds for actually entering the battle phase i had lethal but ran out of time to complete it

or at least count more slowly

[vital scroll]

bro didn't see it coming

[vital scroll]

this is taking forever

[mighty bramble]

What’s the best Skill for Infernobles

[sleek garnet]

salamandra & phoenix

[mighty bramble]

Unfortunately I don’t have the Gearfrieds

I’m thinking Reinforcements instead tbh

[small venture]

i just pulled another sr

im gonna lose it

[vital scroll]

I'm trying to pull 2 UR's from the same box for different decks without luck

[small venture]

im trying to pull an R and keep on pulling urs and srs

[vital scroll]

I'm trying to pull... red-eyes black meteor dragon (2 more times) and amazement administrator arlekino (3 more times)

[small venture]

im trying to pull infestation terminus once

[vital scroll]

which box?

[small venture]

shark fang

[vital scroll]

for me it's explosion of meteor

[small venture]

dang, we both unlucky

this is my fourth sr

[vital scroll]

I swear I want battle chornicle deck to be nerfed

there are too many of them

I have to stick at casual to avoid them

[small venture]

i use pk, so i have pretty reliable counter in ophion

[vital scroll]

I use harpie

but I'm switching to a new deck, but I need the meteor dragon for it

[vital scroll]

at which amount of gems you pulling boxes?

[small venture]

25 per pack

[vital scroll]

so the older boxes? I'm at the 50 one's

I'm using this one

and got 3 useless cards I didn't need

[small venture]

im using the 25 boxes , cuz more chances to get the card i want, and i havent been getting it

[vital scroll]

well, the cards I need aren't from the older boxes

well, expect 1 or 2

[small venture]

i see a good chunk of ancient warriors in that pack, so a half-decent deck could come out of it as a neat bonus

[vital scroll]

also amazement

[small venture]

true

[vital scroll]

like the second UR, I need like 3 of those and 2 of the other UR

[small venture]

btw, if meow-meow-mu comes to duel links, the game is over

[vital scroll]

why

[small venture]

cuz there's a very good chance prank-kids could dominate the meta

[vital scroll]

it depends if the next box contains it's support

[vital scroll]

I doubt that with the link card

welp, I almost got it though

yep, I'm stuck on this, I got no good pendulem cards to do this

[small venture]

... this is cruel

this is my second copy of fissure

i havent even renewed the pack

[robust void]

badaboom badabing I am the solfachord king

@sleek garnet lmfao did you look at the characters used for the rush rankings

[sleek garnet]

It's all yuga, isnt it?

[robust void]

nail has the top spots

but every other one is yuga

cool I just lost bc united pendulums turns off the pendulum skills of shit it sets

we need a solfachord skill for this shit, that's really stupid since their effects barely do anything

it was made to restrict more generic pendulum plays so anything not doing those just takes an extra kick to the dick

also frankly the 1 link summon limit probably is enough on its own

[sleek garnet]

btw

@robust void the plunder npc is impossible to beat on autoduel right?

i cant be the only one

[robust void]

yeah I was saying it the other day

theyre way too modern of a deck for a DL enemy deck lol

they seemingly have all their main support so they just have infinite cards

[sleek garnet]

the ones that give me the most trouble are like

plunder and vampires

with the ones less so being like, bujins and spyral

[robust void]

vamps are the main reason I had to run so much backrow hate

they get too much field control with kingdom and the auto AI just plays into everything lol

if you take out kingdom and stay at or above 2000 attack though you win which I think my auto deck does

[sleek garnet]

a bit late, got busy with college so little time to play at all

but hey, we got there

also had to face my deck's "worst" matchup 3 times in a row to get here, so

[small venture]

im biased cuz i play pk, but god i hope lancaea gets banned

[sleek garnet]

I dont think that lancea is a problem if decks cant simply run 1 and just search it if its good in the match up

[small venture]

as i said, im on pk, so the card counters my deck, so im biased

[fallen kestrel]

Its mot lancea its the skill that searches it, other than borrel at the moment its fine cos to a degree, loads of other single cards just completely shut off decks

Should be hit to 3 maybe, and limit the other like cont traps and whatnot like those light and dark negating ones to 1 imo

[small venture]

bro

this is my third ur

im trying to get an r

[vital scroll]

good day

[small venture]

its prismatic too

[vital scroll]

when I got the red-eyes card from the box, it was prismatic as well

[white stirrup]

How do you even Summon this thing in a Deck that makes Rank 3s?

[vital scroll]

made myself a list of decks I wanna make in an order

[small venture]

two key pieces of info:

1. i dont want this
2. i can make it with rank-up-magic launch

[white stirrup]

1. Never asked if you wanted this or not
2. I Guess that's what Key Djinn is for

[small venture]

sorry about that

it was probably a little rude of me

[vital scroll]

updated

[vital scroll]

wasted 500 gems on useless stuff, I need the UR's ;-;

[quick axle]

Thanks for playing Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links.

[small venture]

np 👍

[fallen kestrel]

Gonna take like literal years, gl i guess

[vital scroll]

real

[vital scroll]

ik and thx, thought prank-kids won't take long

[robust void]

i might be the only pend player in here but anyone else perturbed that there's no generic down and left/right downward link 2s or 3s

every link 2 being diagonals is worthless because of the fewer zones but when they ported the mechanic over they simply didn't care/think

something they should experiment with with skills is making an additional arrow live or swapping a position then just demanding the main deck be entirely pends

[sleek garnet]

I just realized that asana releases on pride month

Probably a coincidence but its cute

[robust void]

is she confirmed queer or anything? or is it more she has some masculine coding? I'm just wondering since I haven't seen her arc yet

[sleek garnet]

people consider her to be at least bi considering her relationships with yuga and tiger (luke's sister)

nothing outright confirmed though

[vital scroll]

well, how can I do this mission without enough pend cards? somehow I did 1, but I can't get it done with the cards I got currently

[sleek garnet]

yuya's starting skill gives you some pendulum monsters

you can also use ticket cards

[robust void]

there's also just free pend monsters all through the game yeah

[sleek garnet]

also keep in mind that you can pendulum summon non pendulum monsters from your hand

as long as their levels are between your scales

the card trader also has pendulums available at times

[vital scroll]

well, I did create this list with making an odd eyes deck as my 6th one

also I do have a few pend cards

but getting the 1 and 8 scale is a pain and mostly bc I can do a pend summon if I got no cards on the field

[vital scroll]

those are my only one

[sleek garnet]

yea that's more than enough

[vital scroll]

but I can't do pend summon if I got monsters on the field

[sleek garnet]

you can just pendulum summon one monster at a time

[vital scroll]

bc timegazer won't let me unless I got 0 monsters on the field

[sleek garnet]

[timegazer]

[vivid wave]

Timegazer Magician

Level: 3 | Pendulum Scale: 8
[ Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect ]

ATK 1200 / DEF 600

Pendulum Effect

You must control no monsters to activate this card. If a Pendulum Monster you control battles, your opponent cannot activate Trap Cards until the end of the Damage Step. Unless you have a "Magician" card or "Odd-Eyes" card in your other Pendulum Zone, this card's Pendulum Scale becomes 4.

Effect

Each turn, the first card(s) in your Pendulum Zone that would be destroyed by an opponent's card effect, is not destroyed.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG/MD)

[sleek garnet]

its just to activate it

[robust void]

read your cards carefully

[vital scroll]

but if I place both him and the other one, I can't do the pend summon

like, I just need to have a good card on the field to active it- and I just got an idea, if I got harpie slash on the field, I can do a pend scale, which actives harpie's effect, I can then put that card back in the deck and do the pend summon, right?

[sleek garnet]

Uhh

Let me ask you something

You know how pendulum summoning works, right?

[vital scroll]

yeah

if I got a pend card with 1 on one side and 8 on the other side, I can pend summon monsters from rank 2 - 7

[sleek garnet]

Well, levels

But yes

[vital scroll]

so this is what I can do

if I got like timegazer or the other one as scale already, I can try to create harpie cyber, then if I got the other one, I can put the scale, use harpie's effect, but the card back in the deck and do the pend summon

[vital scroll]

swing into action skill?

[sleek garnet]

Yes

[sleek garnet]

Timegazer's restriction only applies to placing him on the scale

You can pendulum summon with him even if you control monsters

[vital scroll]

oh

also, the x1.5 xp is usefull

[vital scroll]

wait- when is that future event dropping?

[sleek garnet]

tomorrow

[vital scroll]

aight thx

[vital scroll]

there goes my morning playtime

[dry widget]

yeet
wcs begone!

[vital scroll]

and let the new event begin

[dry widget]

no more borrel, no more tenyi
just free xp and a week til asana

[vital scroll]

borrel heading to pvp now

why does the maintence ends when I begin with work

[pastel lotus]

https://www.giovannitesti.com/products/ef2n-v-8129-sand

it looks very similar to (dsod) nu mokuba's attire

also the skill for dsod mokuba you're powerless seems like an interesting out to crackdown:

Select 1 Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls that targets a monster you control. Negate the selected card until the end of the turn.
This Skill can only be used once per Duel.

[vital scroll]

gottem

[robust void]

nice

[dapper grotto]

Same. I can finally rest, knowing my FOMO for having all characters has been satisfied for now.

[vital scroll]

35 packs left and not getting the needed UR's

[vital scroll]

I still need a lot

[molten needle]

hello guys, how to tribute obelisk the tormentor
i tried to tribute it with three blue eyes white dragon
i'm still new so idk how

[quick axle]

What skill do you have set?

[unreal barn]

Three blue eyes white dragon tributed for obelisk raises multiple questions

When thats probably the least efficent way to summon obelisk and you have to go out of your way to summon 3 blue eyes with 4 mon zones

6 materials worth to make a 4k shit body

Lmao

[sleek garnet]

https://www.duellinksmeta.com/skills/Memories of a Pharoah%3A Obelisk the Tormentor i mean

[sleek garnet]

check if any of your cards or if you skill are locking you out of summoning it, also do keep in mind that tribute summons need your normal summon for that turn

[unreal barn]

Reads mid

[sleek garnet]

Its an obelisk skill

It would always read mid

[quick axle]

The only way Obelisk can be threatening is if it's Tribute Summoned with Hardened Armed Dragon, and even then... a Kaiju can just tribute it anyway.

[unreal barn]

[hardened armed dragon]

[vivid wave]

Hardened Armed Dragon

Level: 4
[ Dragon / Effect ]

ATK 1500 / DEF 800

Effect

(This card is not treated as an "Armed Dragon" card.)
You can Special Summon this card (from your hand) by sending 1 Level 8 or higher monster from your hand to the GY. If you Tribute this card for the Tribute Summon of a Level 7 or higher monster, that monster cannot be destroyed by card effects.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG/MD)

[unreal barn]

lmao

[pastel lotus]

oh right holy barrier mirror force still takes down obelisk

it would really like [creator's mound] in the game rn

[vivid wave]

Mound of the Bound Creator

Effect

Level 10 or higher monsters on the field cannot be targeted or destroyed by card effects. If a Level 10 or higher monster destroys a monster by battle and sends it to the GY: The player who controlled the destroyed monster takes 1000 damage. When this card on the field is destroyed by card effect and sent to the GY: You can add 1 DIVINE monster from your Deck to your hand.

[quick axle]

That seems like clickbait to me.

[sleek garnet]

TIL sauge de fleur has a human face

[vital scroll]

just need 2 more of these and 2 more of the meteor and I'm gonna say bye bye to this pack, until I need more copies of the other UR

[robust void]

fuckin same

I thought it was just a flower headed alien thing

[white stirrup]

She's a retrain of that other Flower Magician so of course she got a Human Face still

[sleek garnet]

Shoutouts to performage showtime 2.0 btw

[midnight fable]

dark paladin skill lmao

[robust void]

scraping the bottom of the barrel

[sleek garnet]

Noah

My theory is simply that they dont want to nerf blue eyes too much

So they're just supporting buster blader

It happened literally every time bewd was deemed as too popular

[quick axle]

Or they're nerfing Blue-Eyes to the ground.

[sleek garnet]

So unlikely it borders on coping, tbh

[sleek garnet]

Deck doesnt even have to be good, btw

As long as it's filtering ppl out in gold, it's doing its job in konami's eyes

[robust void]

lol that's a thing? fucking buster blader? christ

[sleek garnet]

Its getting a rush import too btw

Dragias is in shambles rn

[dry widget]

aw heck they added the prismatic upgrades back to the card trader

...there go all the gems i was saving fur wyrm??

, theres no way i can spend 7k gems just to bling out cyberse though is there?
asana is more important

[vital scroll]

is that a problem?

[white stirrup]

Ay yo Unchained!?

[vital scroll]

which skill adds odd eyes pend dragon? bc I can't find the correct skill for it (if there is one)

[sudden tinsel]

LOL

Thank goodness for ice dragon prison

Baronne was too much trouble

[amber urchin]

Yeah we’re in shambles

We’re in shambles

I say it twice because … we really need support

[vital scroll]

isn't that Turning Up the Heat?

[sleek garnet]

P[turning up the heat]

[vivid wave]

Turning Up the Heat

Effect

At the beginning of the Duel, add 1 "Stargazer Magician" and 1 "Timegazer Magician" to your Deck. Then, if you have two or less "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" in your Deck, add 1 "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" to your Deck.
In addition, if you begin the Duel with a Deck that contains no monsters other than "Performapal" monsters, "Magician" Pendulum Monsters, or "Odd-Eyes" monsters, add a Pendulum Zone to your field.

F/L Status: Unreleased (TCG/OCG/MD)

[sleek garnet]

Looks like it

[vital scroll]

alright

[vital scroll]

got it 3rd try, nice

[vital scroll]

also, did they change the link summon animation or something?

[sleek garnet]

No

Why do you ask?

[vital scroll]

well, yesterday I was watching a street replay and saw someone doing a link summon with a complete different animation

[sleek garnet]

Salamangreat monsters have a separate animation when they're summoned using a monster with the same name as material

I think you could be referring to that

[vital scroll]

yeah, something like that

[agile bone]

Varis also has gold streaks for his Link Summons

[dapper grotto]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzTj8STHPhc

I tried it out, it's pretty damn fun.

But I often lose against Battle Chronicle Blue-eyes. Spells and Traps were just too much for this deck...at least, in my experience. I might just not be getting what to do against them.

[quick axle]

Alro, so... what's the deal?

[dapper grotto]

Still needs more testing, but the skill is bonkers.

I don't have a 3rd of that Fleur UR, so I put in Cosmo Queen instead.

I'm considering putting in Successor's Soul for it, but probably a bit much.

I can always shuffle the Cosmo Queen back in with the skill if need be.

[robust void]

grrrrrr im so ready for shadow flower and wyrms come on already

[sleek garnet]

Man

The vast vulcan skill is so bad

[sleek garnet]

Did they nerf noodles but not machines/maximum overload?

That's crazy

Also wait

Am i reading this right

Or does the new agent skill forces you to play a highlander deck?

• Negate Attack
• Altrashoot Hydron
• Ultimate Flag Beast Aim Eagle
• JAM:P Check!

Limited 3

• Ghost Cyclone
• Extra Spice the Elite Noodle Ninja

Unlimited

• Semeruler the Dark Summoner

[sleek garnet]

So these are

Interesting hits

No essel which is odd

Maximum overload is exactly the same

[quick axle]

I dunno what I missed, that made Samsara Lotus the same thing that banned it in the TCG.

[sleek garnet]

They'll probably use limit 2s as they used to in old duel links, while limit 3s are to make sure you can play 2 different bosses

[mighty bramble]

What warranted Nurse Burn being killed I don’t follow what’s meta

[quick axle]

Simochi, I understand, since it was a [Mistake], and Reficule was banned the previous list.

[vivid wave]

Mistake

Effect

Neither player can add cards from their Deck to their hand except by drawing them.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG/MD)

[sleek garnet]

There was an ftk running around with bomber dragon

[sleek garnet]

It wasnt meta, just very popular on ladder

[quick axle]

And Konami doesn't like FTKs.

[sleek garnet]

Which annoyed a ton of people since it had a 90% winrate going first

[quick axle]

So they killed it with extreme prejudice.

[mighty bramble]

Okay but what exactly made them kill it

[quick axle]

[The Paths of Destiny]

[vivid wave]

The Paths of Destiny

Effect

Both players toss a coin once. If a player's result is Heads, they gain 2000 Life Points, and if their result is Tails, they take 2000 damage.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG/MD)

[quick axle]

This one.

[mighty bramble]

Then just ban that one

[sleek garnet]

And the master of destiny skill

It turned cup of ace into pot of greed

[quick axle]

Konami didn't account for healing being reversed in their damage nerfs.

[sleek garnet]

And cards of the sky was a trade in for the deck

It was so consistent you only ran 1 nurse

[mighty bramble]

Am I just being dumb

[quick axle]

Nurse Reficule was already banned in the previous banlist, for the record.

[sleek garnet]

There were 5 other replacements

Stuff like [gift card]

[vivid wave]

Gift Card

Effect

Your opponent gains 3000 Life Points.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG/MD)

[quick axle]

Wait... is Gift Card in Duel Links?

[mighty bramble]

Vaguely related but I prefer going second because I prefer not feeling vulnerable like that

[quick axle]

IIRC, it wasn't.

[sleek garnet]

It may not be

But it's just an example

[quick axle]

I think the card that broke the camel was the card I said.

[mighty bramble]

Nope

[sleek garnet]

Cant name off the top of my hat all the shitty ones people ran

[mighty bramble]

Just checked

[sleek garnet]

Not like it matters

Nothing cool was lost by banning nurse

[quick axle]

Same with Samsara Lotus.

Nothing of value was lost.

And it seems like I was right: Invicil and Summon Breaker on Limited 1.

[mighty bramble]

Anyway I made a Blackwing deck a bit back and while I admit it’s jank I have fun with it and that’s all that matters

[quick axle]

2 out of 3 ain't that bad.

Green Light being Limited as well... harsh.

[sleek garnet]

I want to find the guy who guessed rapid trigger as the only rokket hit tho

That's crazy

[quick axle]

I dunno how I called 2 out of 3 of those hits.

[mighty bramble]

Gave it a quick fix

[quick axle]

Hmm... don't play Shura.

That card is too slow. Same with Blizzard.

Play more copies of Simoon and Gale, plus 1 copy of Hamattan.

IIRC, Breeze is a cheaper version of Gale, but more specific.

Also, where's the single copy of Zephyros the Elite?

@mighty bramble Maybe I'm asking too much.

[mighty bramble]

Nah it’s fine

[quick axle]

Oh, and also 1 copy of Oroshi the Squall, now that I remember.

Also, drop Silverwind, that card is difficult to summon, and usually not worth the payoff, since it stops your turn if going second.

[sleek garnet]

I wonder if i should unpin the dl commands post

Most of them dont even work anymore

!dltiers

Not within this thread, at least

[quick axle]

Yeah, just unpin them.

And those commands are outdated anyways.

[vital scroll]

no more heat wave in battle chronicle

[quick axle]

And nothing of value was lost.

[vital scroll]

knew it that the deck would get hit

[quick axle]

Blue-Eyes only got a light tap.

@sleek garnet Correct me if I'm wrong, though,

[sleek garnet]

Yes

[vital scroll]

based on the banlist, heat wave is the only card from it being used in battle chronicle

[sleek garnet]

I'm going to bed

Gn everyone

[vital scroll]

gn

[quick axle]

Same.

[vital scroll]

gn lightbox

[quick axle]

@mighty bramble I forgot... also drop Elphin the Raven, that's like worthless to run in a BW deck.

[vital scroll]

tbh, I wonder what card they gonna replace heat wave with in battle chronicle

[robust void]

not happy about the hit to eagle because that's what makes the deck fun to play (the skill). ghost cyclone being hit is good but it should be 0 ofc. Max overload being untouched is ???

also lol at (except water attribute monsters)

surely they could've written that more succinctly

[quick axle]

What about the Speed Duel hits?

[robust void]

PK can get fucked so that's cool. basically all I have to say

[quick axle]

Agents also got screwed six ways to sunday.

[sleek garnet]

Again?

Wtf

Btw @robust void did you see that ORRs got a new animation?

[robust void]

what's that

[sleek garnet]

Over rush rares

[robust void]

ooo

neat

[sleek garnet]

Oh yea btw

The new skill changes (basically) confirm that the prison aqua cards are coming soon

So that's neat

So yea thinking on the banlist some more

They basically didnt want to hit anything on the selection box

Which is like, understandable i guess

Still kinda sucks tho

[vital scroll]

I remember winning against it with harpies

[vital scroll]

you mean Herald of Green Light?

[quick axle]

Not only that, but also Sky Scourge Invicil and Summon Breaker.

Plus Cards from the Sky.

And Infernoble Knight Captain Roland.

[vital scroll]

all these used in agents?

[quick axle]

Yes.

I think? I'm not sure.

[vital scroll]

welp, now they gotta change agents

[quick axle]

More like becoming untiered, maybe.

On top of the card hits, the skill also got nerfed significantly.

[vital scroll]

oh well

[amber urchin]

Guys I’m stuck on the duel quizzes event can someone help :(

HOW DO TRAPTRIX

HELP ME

[vital scroll]

I will dm you

how far are y'all?

[vital scroll]

also guys, it appears in 3 days we get a new legendary duelist

[timber river]

yup Asuna

[robust void]

gonna be painful waiting for that new box cuz wyrms are gonna be half a deck at launch

[vital scroll]

you mean we need to wait for the support?

[vital scroll]

I saw it on yt and saw someone saying they are hoping for the hunt characters and Asana's friends, like Gallian

[quick axle]

Asana. There's no Asuna in YGO... so far.

[vital scroll]

I believe she's from Sevens?

[timber river]

yea

[vital scroll]

what's this for hand bro 💀

[vital scroll]

nice, 150 days now

[dapper grotto]

Keep those gemmies safe.

[sudden tinsel]

The era of link dragons has arrived

[vital scroll]

I wish, but I'm working on decks

[dapper grotto]

That's definitely gonna cost a ton of money lol.

[vital scroll]

you tell me

[dapper grotto]

These go way back. 😰

[vital scroll]

red eyes deck ain't far even

[sudden tinsel]

No gimmick puppet support means game is on copium

Still waiting on [puppet parade]

[vivid wave]

Puppet Parade

Effect

If your opponent controls more monsters than you do: Special Summon "Gimmick Puppet" monsters with different names from your Deck, up to the difference, then, if your opponent's LP are at least 2000 higher than yours, you can Set 1 "Rank-Up-Magic" Normal Spell directly from your Deck. For the rest of this turn after this card resolves, you cannot Special Summon monsters, except "Gimmick Puppet" monsters. You can only activate 1 "Puppet Parade" per turn.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG/MD)

[sudden tinsel]

No excuse for the c rank up cards not to be released

[vital scroll]

I'm waiting for dinowrestler support

we only got 7 cards of the,

we can't do anything with this

[sudden tinsel]

I think I’m missing something

[vital scroll]

why is blue eyes in it

[sudden tinsel]

for chaos dragons third effect to pop

Topo came in handy for raidraptors

[vital scroll]

also making this too

[sudden tinsel]

Savage is banned but it should still be a skill card

[vital scroll]

why

[sudden tinsel]

Baronne is already one

so why can’t savage get the same treatment

it will put clear wing players in their place

[dapper grotto]

Wait, who was the one guy that wanted Crystrons to come back?

https://youtu.be/EspMYj4yMjc?si=Krppu-8lQz2IyM0V

That new Sherry Skill helps it out too lmao.

[vital scroll]

I think with the new support it might reach meta

ngl, sometimes I hate it that auto duel does things wrong while I could do it better

[sudden tinsel]

Been using Cryston Quariong

with TG

[vital scroll]

man

[vital scroll]

which one should I do? left is breakdown, but the field is useless

[sleek garnet]

What do you mean the field is useless?

[vital scroll]

necrovalley, that card won't do anything in the deck

[sleek garnet]

It blocks the opponent from using the graveyard

[vital scroll]

hold on

oh yeah, but the first part of the field is useless

[sleek garnet]

So?

You dont care about that part, you care about the rest of the card

[vital scroll]

here I explain myself by not reading the card

so the first deck is the best?

[sleek garnet]

No idea

[robust void]

thats not the part people care about

[sleek garnet]

Man

The vast vulcan skill is so broken

It lets you play the best monster in the game

Raidacross

[vital scroll]

who's excited for the new character?

[sleek garnet]

Me, noah, and spirawr

The rest of the folk here dont really play rush duels so its kinda inconsequential to them

[vital scroll]

oh well

[dapper grotto]

Ranked has been flooded with Sherry these past few days.

Not complainin' though. That skill feels so freeing.

[mighty bramble]

I only really touch it because FOMO is a bitch

[vital scroll]

is it better than battle chronicle?

[dapper grotto]

Much much better. It helps out a ton of decks as a generic skill.

[vital scroll]

finally a deck better than battle chronicle

[mighty bramble]

I got two Sauge now

Just one more until my Sherry deck

[vital scroll]

seems you're further than me making the red-eyes deck

[vital scroll]

nice pull

[sleek garnet]

wdym finally it was only the best deck for 2 weeks

also, i think dally meant "better" from a game design perspective rather than a power level one

[vital scroll]

oh

well, will it reach the tierlist?

[sleek garnet]

i'm guessing tier 3 at best tbh

[dapper grotto]

It at least got some tops in some tournaments, but no big tournaments have happened yet since the release of her skill.

[sleek garnet]

the borrel matchup is kinda bad tho

since searchable lancea

[dapper grotto]

Oof.

I'm sure there's a deck that's not Orcust Zombies that'll do well with the skill. Like maybe Evil Eye or Dream Mirror of all things. I've seem some disgusting boards made with this.

[vital scroll]

time to add superheavy deck to my yet to make deck list

[sleek garnet]

the thing about those is that they're kinda just worse T.G. tbh

i've seen people discussing nekroz since valkyrus conveniently fits into the spellcaster with 2900 atk category

but i have my doubts

[vital scroll]

got pk dude at last

[robust void]

lol i did not expect this effect to ever win me a game

[vital scroll]

can't wait for the new character!

[sleek garnet]

https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/sets/heavy-strike-excavator

The maximums come in over rush rare, that's cool

As well as a new campaign

[quick axle]

Notice that they preemptively put on Limited 3 these cards.

[sleek garnet]

Oh yea also

The new bundle is the warrior returning alive (rush edition)

[sleek garnet]

Ngl

New box is pretty mid

Only 5 wyrms total

Only trap is heavenly bliss

Plant stuff isnt promising either

[sleek garnet]

Buster blader looks alright but it runs into the same issue as blue eyes of not having enough cards and having to run subpar stuff, in fact, its even worse because you can run cards like torna

Core seems to be BB itself, 1 swift gaia, 3 vanilla gaia, 2 avian spell tactics, and 3 witness

[quick axle]

I think BB also got a Speed Duel skill?

I guess not.

[sleek garnet]

It did

Its not great, but it did

[quick axle]

Giving a subpar skill to BB... in order to try and curb the Blue-Eyes decks... You had one job, ONE JOB, Konami.

[sleek garnet]

Its alright

[vital scroll]

sup chat

[sleek garnet]

Its meant to be a low ranked filter

Which BB does fine as, even if its not great

The same thing happened when it got memory

[vital scroll]

time to waste my time getting the new character

[sleek garnet]

She's not unlockable yet

Wait 3 days for that one

[quick axle]

So pretty much useful until around Gold, and that's it.

[sleek garnet]

More or less

[vital scroll]

3 days?! I thought she would appear today

[sleek garnet]

She did

[quick axle]

But not as an unlockable yet.

[sleek garnet]

Event characters tend to only be unlockable a bit after the event starts

[quick axle]

Also... is it just me, or Event Roaming Duelists have became a thing of the past?

[vital scroll]

then what can we do in the event?

[sleek garnet]

They did

The last one was antinomy

[sleek garnet]

Get the event points

[vital scroll]

is it a raid duel thing or not?

[sleek garnet]

Nope

[quick axle]

No.

I think the event gives you a skill that gives you a Maximum for free?

[sleek garnet]

It does

Yes

[vital scroll]

hmm, seems also in 3 days we get a new box, nice

[vital scroll]

it shows in 2 days for me though

[sleek garnet]

I was mistaken

It is on the 26th

[vital scroll]

which means, playing the whole day to get her, bc I got no work then

[robust void]

a bad rush box? I didn't know it was possible @sleek garnet

seriously fuck them man

[sleek garnet]

Have you noticed a pattern tho?

Both roa and neil's decks were underpowered at release, then got enough support to get them into the top deck spots at their respective rerun event

I was honestly expecting asana to follow the same layout

Not like konami had a lack of options when choosing the wyrm cards for the box

[robust void]

it seems to me like backpedaling their mistakes in this specific pattern

it's not like they've made good balancing choices outside of this so a lack of knowledge is entirely possible

[vital scroll]

new rush box?

[robust void]

besides that having to already wait months for a box because of speed then having to wait even longer for anything to change is kind of infuriating

[vital scroll]

you mean the new one we gonna get?

nvm, now I see it

[sleek garnet]

That's true

[robust void]

also

why

are

they

always

mini boxes

[vital scroll]

wait- since when we got the new rush and speed duel boxes? I think I missed it

[sleek garnet]

Last month

[vital scroll]

never noticed it I guess

or I did, but didn't bother opening them

[sleek garnet]

Rush only has 2k cards total, they really want to spread that as much as possible

I'm not even sure the if the product that releases fusions will be a main box, tbh

[vital scroll]

would prank-kids get it's support?

[sleek garnet]

Unlikely

[robust void]

they're not gonna run out of cards by giving us a real box sometimes

surely product irl is coming out faster than their pace

[sleek garnet]

It actually isnt

Its roughly the same pace, but dl barely prints out more cards per month, last time i checked

[vital scroll]

why is this a card even-

[sleek garnet]

It's a japanese pun

"W" is their equivalent of lol

And a bunch of "W"s look like blades of grass

[vital scroll]

oh

[small fern]

sogen wwwwwww

[amber urchin]

BETTER BE YURI

[quick axle]

It's Asana.

[amber urchin]

FUUUUUUUUUU-

[quick axle]

So unless you're ignoring RUSH, then it's only a gem source.

[amber urchin]

I hate the rush world in duel links

I don’t hate rush dueling I just hate having to restart every time I get a new world

[quick axle]

We get it, you don't like it, no need to throw it down our throats.

[half sphinx]

Yuri got teased as far back as last year via the teaser for last worlds

weird it's not here yet

[amber urchin]

And I’ve been prepping since

[quick axle]

Maybe next month?

[amber urchin]

I have gotten all the preda plants I can

But NOTHING

[half sphinx]

And it's very likely not even the next ARC-V character

due to the IDs we have

[amber urchin]

DAMM IT

[amber urchin]

Who’s next?

[quick axle]

Probably next one should be Rin.

[half sphinx]

yeah

wait no

Ruri

was the last one

[quick axle]

Why Lulu before Rin?

[half sphinx]

idk

[amber urchin]

I wanna see Yuri come in because then we get to see him start to be redeemed

[quick axle]

That doesn't make sense.

[half sphinx]

we had a big batch of IDs added in last year

[quick axle]

Lulu didn't appear proper until Season 3, IIRC.

[amber urchin]

Lyrilisc would be very nerfed In DL

[half sphinx]

she's the only one not released from those

[amber urchin]

Neither did Rin?

[quick axle]

Ah, okay.

[quick axle]

Pretty sure she was on Season 2.

During the Synchro Dimension arc.

[amber urchin]

Flashback only

Arc Vs my favorite season I know lol

[quick axle]

Lulu only appeared on flashbacks.

Before Season 3.

[vital scroll]

tbh, it's hard to make a deck format unlikely speed duels

[quick axle]

Was also the case for Rin?

[amber urchin]

Simps

[quick axle]

Huh... okay, then I didn't know.

I didn't see the show, so...

[amber urchin]

Arc V is the best

(My opinion)

[quick axle]

Ignoring the very last episode.

Which IIRC, ruined a lot of the perception of the show.

[amber urchin]

Love the Z-arc duel

[quick axle]

I said "the very last episode".

[amber urchin]

I know that’s the yuya vs Declan

I’m just saying I fricken love the Z-arc duel

[vital scroll]

for me it's Sevens

[amber urchin]

He beat 14 duelists (most 2 at a time) in one duel!

He’s OP!

He only lost because Riley/Ray got the nature cards back from the grave and that combo only worked because everyone else had the graveyard set up for them!

And after that he only lost because Yuya sabotaged him!

He was so OP!!!

[quick axle]

I really don't really care, being OP means that he only was beaten by plot convenience.

[amber urchin]

But you gotta admit it was a fricken awesome duel to watch!

[quick axle]

shrug

I didn't see Arc-V.

[amber urchin]

Do you have Hulu

[quick axle]

Also, let's get back on topic.

[amber urchin]

It’s on Hulu

[amber urchin]

Why are you playing Harpie lady Yuya

[quick axle]

Don't question his decisions, that's what he does.

He can play whatever he wants.

[vital scroll]

bc it's my only deck beside my old red-eyes farm deck

I didn't play the game for 2 years, so

[quick axle]

And also, getting a new deck from scratch ain't cheap.

[vital scroll]

and mostly bc I start with expensive

[vital scroll]

you tell me

[amber urchin]

Play it on Mai? She has skills that help harpies

[vital scroll]

if I main Mai, how must I get gems from other characters to get myself more decks? that's what I wanna know then

[quick axle]

Please don't tell him how to play. He's already set on his plan. Let him do what he wants to do.

We can only guide him, that's the least we can do.

[vital scroll]

plan is like this:

step 1: lvl up other characters
step 2: get the gems
step 3: create more decks

[quick axle]

So asking him to use another character for that deck, is like telling him to use a character he already fully leveled up.

And gems ain't easy to convey.

[vital scroll]

unless there comes a way to convey coins into gems, but I don't see that happening

[quick axle]

Yeah, no, coins are the bait currency.

Whil gems are the premium currency.

In terms of gacha jargon.

[vital scroll]

got like 2M coins sitting there doing nothing, unless I get a char mission to get 3 specific cards

[vital scroll]

I mean, she isn't max yet only lvl 36

[quick axle]

The point still stands, since it becomes more and more difficult to level up a character, the higher they are.

[vital scroll]

yep

and I got still some characters to unlock and some low lvl one's to lvl up

[amber urchin]

Ohhhh mb I thought you were playing that as your main deck? Your just grinding gems

[vital scroll]

I mean, it is my main deck, since I got nothing else

that's why I have a plan

[amber urchin]

I mean your main Yuya deck lol like you were playing that in competitive

[vital scroll]

wdym competitive? I see no opponement name

[amber urchin]

Simple answer

I’m an idiot

[mighty bramble]

Neat

[vital scroll]

gg

[vital scroll]

never noticed this

[dapper grotto]

Yup, perma Deck Build Packs you can go into.

[quick axle]

A bit of a shame that the other packs that compiled archetypes, went away.

[dapper grotto]

Still considering going into the Midnight Terror for Evil Eye Revolution De Fleur.

Yeah, those Pick Up Boxes were pretty damn good too.

[quick axle]

Pick Up Boxes, for some reason expire.

[dapper grotto]

Because they have only reprints.

[quick axle]

And they're only available when a new one is put?

[dapper grotto]

These Deck build Packs have new cards in it.

I really hope some of them come back someday, but it doesn't seem likely atm.

[sleek garnet]

Oh yea, yuka is now confirmed due to asana's dialogue

Neat

[amber urchin]

BRO! THEY’RE ADDING YUKA GOHA BEFORE YURI!?

I’m about to go murder a Konami executive

Any murder weapon suggestions?

[sleek garnet]

When did i say that?

[vital scroll]

wow- just got 3 vagabonds within an hour- that's a new record, 2 after each other and the 3rd around 30 minutes later

[dry widget]

dialogues confirm nothing

many characters have dialogues that may never play, or only play in events; they're largely future proofing and may or may not come to pass

[sleek garnet]

I guess

I'm just happy that she's probably not getting the saburamen treatment

[robust void]

choccy did they really not give us even the level 6 wyrm normal monster

am I going insane

[sleek garnet]

Its probably a level up reward

[robust void]

good point tbh

[sleek garnet]

Since it got leaked along with the rest of the bunch

[robust void]

phew

I didn't know it got leaked

[sleek garnet]

No level 7 vanilla tho, kinda sucks

[robust void]

it does

also aren't there more shadow flower boss mons

not even counting the fusion

wow lindo has a high total stat line

what a power jump

[sleek garnet]

Yes

They kinda just decided to import only ranze's stuff tho

Even though rinnosuke's cards also show up in the same arc

[robust void]

great stuff

what's with all of these beasts machines that aren't machines lol

why didn't we get either wyrm trap. I guess those could be level up rewards too

[sleek garnet]

It's caterpillo's deck in the anime

He only duels once tho

Thinking about it

They didn't import the pigeon boss monster either, huh

thank god i'm so tired of counter pigeons

[robust void]

how do you feel about the new anti maximum cards

[sleek garnet]

Card devastation?

Mid

Will probably see side deck play

But it's very whatever

[robust void]

and heavenly rest

[sleek garnet]

Heavenly rest is maximum support

Its alright but it's kinda hard to resolve

Since you only get the bonus effect when you have a maximum out, so you're basically already winning

[robust void]

you're right I misread it

wow it's a lot worse now

[sleek garnet]

You can do a funny by just tribute summoning a middle piece and leaving it there

But it's pretty telegraphed

[robust void]

they will def fall for it in DL

[dry widget]

bear in mind that:

• excavator mid is a strong boss on its own that you'll tribute summon regularly when playing wyrms normally (and thanks to skills, summoning max mid pieces is pretty common in all max decks actually)
• unless you have backrow removal, it's kinda hard to play around bliss even if you see it coming - there isn't really monster removal that gets around it and you're gonna have to get rid of the boss somehow
• it's still a good defensive card without the bonus effect

it's still situational and is the worse of the two staples here - revitalization is a very strong card and a very important pickup

[mighty bramble]

She’s mine now

[vital scroll]

congrats

[dapper grotto]

Our monthly Gem bank has arrived!

[white stirrup]

What's the Infinitrack doing in Rush?

[dapper grotto]

Trying to pretend to be Dragons, that's what.

[midnight fable]

Very tempted to go through the new minibox for the plant stuff

[sleek garnet]

Oh yea card revitalization turns all of your thunder monsters online

Sounds interesting

[robust void]

oh hey

[sleek garnet]

THE MAT AND SLEEVES HAS STUFF THAT'S NOT IN THE GAME BRO I CAN'T

[midnight fable]

galaxy eyes!

[sudden tinsel]

Shiranui players get Shrekt

[sudden tinsel]

Female varis but rush duel

It’s cool they get the kaiju archetypes

[robust void]

hows she anything at all like varis

[sleek garnet]

@robust void so i tested icezark post list on a friend's account

Deck's kinda solid ngl

Avian spell tactics access means that you get to resolve zark basically every turn

[robust void]

hmmm

might try it

though it'll prob be hard to be torn away from wyrms

btw still pissed we didn't get their traps are they stupid

[sleek garnet]

Wait for Wave 2™️

[robust void]

what skill do you think is best for wyrms rn

[sleek garnet]

depends on if you're playing the maximum monster or not

construct blisstopia and maximum excavator are both pretty good

[robust void]

i see

omg

I spent before remembering the bundle

I always fucking do that

[robust void]

damn you can't use essel with excavator

could you imagine

[dry widget]

construct blisstopia is the one i think is best

(being able to play essel is part of that)

[robust void]

I'm not impressed with excavator so far

your deck has no pressure whatsoever

[dry widget]

excavator the skill or excavator the monster

[robust void]

the skill

your deck is mostly just unimpressive normal monsters

[dry widget]

not having essel access kinda sucks, otherwise you could turbo your way to the piercing condition faster

[robust void]

or make your level 7+s much less bricky

a hand full of tribute mons is possible and very bad

[dry widget]

otherwise, plain buildragon beatdown is still pretty strong?
but the blisstopia skill is just more consistent

[robust void]

meh. everyone runs backrow removal like crazy and without blisstopia you have nothing

you don't have a real boss monster to fall back on without the maximum

[sleek garnet]

Btw, the SR dream ticket only goes up to heavy metal scream and the raidacross SD

Hmm

Do i get a second call of the earthbound or a 2nd piercing samurai?

The latter could just randomly get reprinted somewhere

So i feel like its worse in the long term

Dont plan on building warriors anytime soon, either

But the only deck that could use call just got nuked by the banlist

[dry widget]

so ive got 3 variants of wyrm in mind, unsure which of these is the best
will have to do some more testing with all of them when i have asana fully levelled
(unlikely to be the last one though)

[sleek garnet]

Btw spirawr

Do you think that we'll somehow get fusions before the asana rerun?

The skills seem to have a weird focus on construct princess

[dry widget]

the weird focus on princess seems like evidence against fusions coming soon

you don't need an extra reason to run princess if we have fusions

[sleek garnet]

I guess

I do wonder how many characters are left until they have to add Yuo

I can think of Tiger and Yuka

But not much else

[dry widget]

arc 4's most important duels were among the protags, so yeah, not much

unless they throw in otes now instead of waiting to show him in his role as final villain

character unlocks could also be diluted by go rush though

[sleek garnet]

That's true

They have a buffer of what, 9 characters to bring before The☆Luge shows up?

[dry widget]

it kinda makes sense that they want to have pylon representation since besides being a fusion material, she represents asana herself in card form

[sleek garnet]

Yudias
Yuhi
Yuamu
Manabu
Chupataro ()
Mayna
London (unlikely but they already have the VA on hand, so)
Zwijo
Yuna
Rovian
Asaka

[dry widget]

(the skill that adds peaks searches it when you have pylon because pylon is the only constructor wyrm actually depicted in peaks of blisstopia in its art!)

[sleek garnet]

Oh yea i noticed that today

It's cute

[sleek garnet]

Quite a lot

Looks like we aren't really in a hurry to add fusions unlike what happened with RUMs

[dry widget]

they could just turbo out yuo at any time they feel like though, they can skip yuka/tiger/otes

[sleek garnet]

That's true

[dry widget]

maybe go back to revisit them later

[sleek garnet]

I guess if there's any pressure at all, it would be the WCS qualifier campaign

Where the obvious SRM upgrade to release would be sevens paladin

(Or strong boy sevens, who knows)

[dry widget]

thats an srm downgrade

[sleek garnet]

It does 700 million damage tho

[dry widget]

what would the sevens release schedule look like after yuo, anyway?

• yuga/luke/romin/gavin
• mimi
• roa
• nail
• asana
• tiger
• yuka
• yuo
• the⭐lukeman! the⭐lukeman!!
• nanaho?
• yuga
• princess g?
• otes

lukeman, nanaho and princess g are all skippable (lukeman could be an evolution skill like barian battlemorph or zexal), but that'd leave very few important characters left before the plot ends

[sleek garnet]

you typed yuga twice

There is a non zero chance that hunt somehow makes it in

Since dynamix didnt get an archive skill

[sleek garnet]

But this seems about right

Arguably sebastian still has a chance too

Although a low one

dynamix getting in early is kinda evidence against hunt, but they could push greedizauls alongside him?

[robust void]

damn I got a major sevens spoiler from reading the discussion

[sleek garnet]

Sorry for that

[vital scroll]

got her

[dry widget]

one of asana's character select lines slightly bothers me it always sounds like shes saying "my name is asona"

[midnight fable]

Unlocked, using my duel orbs (got like 915 left) to speed up the event

[agile bone]

swirls, swirls

[dry widget]

theres a reason i said it twice

[robust void]

what every wyrm hand feels like

[timber river]

Am I missing something?

[dry widget]

yeah in celebration of pride month asana is trans now!

[sleek garnet]

Next month's unlock is dumon from zexal

Wonder what cards he's gonna give out tho, the only star seraphs left to add are his 2 xyz monsters

[vital scroll]

how you know?

[quick axle]

The quote can alwats tell a story.

Depending on the quote and context, you can tell who's the next character.

[sleek garnet]

At the end of the month there's an Upcoming Events notification

[quick axle]

I dunno why I think that Dumon is kind of a nothingburger?

[sleek garnet]

He is!

Expect him to be around alito as a character

[quick axle]

And Dumon ||pretty sure was supposed to be the leader of the Barian Empire, without Nasch's presence, with Vector taking the reins||.

If I recall correctly.

Unless I'm getting my details wrong.

Dumon, Marin, Girag, Nasch, Alito, Mizar, Vector.

[vital scroll]

for me I can't defeat her with the rush cards I got

[sleek garnet]

the event gives you a skill that adds magnum overlord to your hand if you have 4 or more cards in your graveyard

and overlord is basically a instant win button

[vital scroll]

this is why I hate auto duel, they never active the skill

[pastel lotus]

durbe is the next char?

[sleek garnet]

Yes

[robust void]

durbe? character? next?

[sleek garnet]

Star seraph barian emperor

[robust void]

I thought he got that one already

man there's some real boring archetypes in zexal huh

here's uhhh a chair

it uhhh XYZs something mediocre

[pastel lotus]

it says on yugipedia that durbe never dueled in his human form in the show

[robust void]

in link evolution he was barian only

[pastel lotus]

his dueling head will probably still get eye color change like alito

[quick axle]

Dumon, Durbe... still, he was pretty much a nothinburger.

[robust void]

it feels like they're scraping from the bottom of the barrel

at least they have an excuse to just get all barians in

[quick axle]

Only Vector remains.

[robust void]

honestly I'm surprised they haven't started doing shit like Christmas Yami for characters yet

[sleek garnet]

Man

The last DSoD rep was in march 2022

Kinda crazy to think about

[pastel lotus]

gx and 5ds don't get nearly complete ensemble of antagonists

[robust void]

speaking of desperate. even making that its own world was a lol

[pastel lotus]

the zexal bias is real

[robust void]

yo gx should add the vampire chick wtf

it's free

[sleek garnet]

Crazy how gx just skipped over season 1

So yea, august's character of the month will probably be an arc v rep

And then we get the new world

[robust void]

what new world

[sleek garnet]

We dont know

[robust void]

wtf

it's confirmed?

[sleek garnet]

Nope

[robust void]

oh

then we won't get one lol

[sleek garnet]

Its either dm filler world or go rush

[robust void]

no shot go rush is coming this early

[sleek garnet]

Since those 2 are at least somewhat in the code

[robust void]

then again go rush could coincide with the dub

that would also be an ideal time to drop fusions

[sleek garnet]

and the physical release in the west

[robust void]

it won't happen bro

they don't want to sell new products

[sleek garnet]

You saw the devir interview right?

[robust void]

nah what happened

[sleek garnet]

Speed duel will get 1 more product then get axed for something else

[robust void]

we just don't know the "something else" I'm guessing

it probably would be rush

[sleek garnet]

We dont, yes

Everything points to rush tho

[robust void]

watch it be a ddm reboot lmfao

for more DM pandering

[sleek garnet]

So yea like

[robust void]

that's cool at least

I might actually play rush irl since there's no chance it's as expensive as the main game for a while

if they port the romin SD I'm sold
