The Yu-Gi-Oh! Thread

@Meanlucario  
I’ve only managed to Max out Dark side of Dimensions Kaiba since his max level was 30 and I was using him a lot for the Trascend Game event. The only other character I’ve maxed out was Pegasus for toon rollback and kingdom and I REALLY wanted his Toon world skill. I eventually got lucky doing the skill lottery at the card trader for it.

@Marx  
I got all but the girl of DSOD maxed, all but Leo for 5D’s, and Bonz, Zane, and Tyranno for the other two worlds.

@Marx  

 
Mokuba using a Buster Blader deck?
 
I want to say heresy and this merits exterminatus
 
But dammit of this isn’t some kawaii shit

One thing that Duel links has done right is making sure that you don’t have to worry about having to use real life money.

Good thing I finished seson 1 of 5D’s, since I wouldn’t know who Dark Signer Rex Goodwin would be. On a related note, Leo is my only non-maxed 5D’s character in DL, so he’s going to be the one taking down Rex the most.

@Meanlucario  
Is Duel links going to do all of 5d’s?  
Because if so, i’m curious to see how quasar’s going to be implemented.

@The★Rickmeister  
I think they’re just doing the international stuff so far.

@Meanlucario  
Ah, no quasar then.  
I wonder what they plan on doing with Red Nova Dragon since 4Kids skipped its introduction arc and went straight to the championship that takes place after, IIRC.

@The★Rickmeister  
Likely through any other box, if at all.

I hope that xyz monsters appear in Duel Links soon.

@Meanlucario  
Me too I hear Utopia Lightning is a good way to play Crystal Beasts

@Marx  
I’m a pure-theme type of guy, and I have no idea what Utopia Lightning is.

Are the Kozmo cards Star Wars and Wizard of Oz’s bastard child that they had on a drunken night?

@Meanlucario
 
Yep
 
A good deck overall that for once didn’t need the extra deck to work

@QuasarNova  
Speaking of card archetypes I’m learning about today, I think I’ll buy all the Elder/Old/Outer Entity monsters because they’re straight up Lovecraft.

@Meanlucario
 
Back on the old days of Master Rule 3, when pendulums where genuine ball busters and a good majespecter build could get those guys out
 
Now, only two of those have actual use (the fusions) because the main nuke which is Azathot himself, is hugely impractical to play even in casual

@QuasarNova  
I still plan on getting them, just because of what they are and not how good they are. I’m what you might called a Alpha Casual Trash.

@Meanlucario
 
Then get their field spell and spell support. From one filthy casul to another

@QuasarNova  
This is more so for collecting than playing. I haven’t gotten any card past the early years of Syncho, so I couldn’t use them even if I wanted to.

@Meanlucario
 
Oh I know, but you can’t say the set is complete if a card is missing. And if you have elder, outer and great old ones, you need a Dreamland, and a trapezohedron to start your ritual.

@QuasarNova  
Fine.

@QuasarNova  
And I just ordered one of each.

Just finished the Unicorn episodes, and recorded my thoughts.
 
Why didn’t Jack attack the monster without the remove-from-play effect?
 
Let me guess, Unicorn were the ones to cause Crow’s accident and sent something into Jack’s unicycle’s intake as well as trick them.
 
And they didn’t make any rules regarding vehicles breaking down why, other than tension?
 
Why wasn’t Akiza ready to go when Jack was returning? ()she was, my mistake)
 
“D-Wheeling is dangerous” And fighting gods who live off of humans isn’t? And she can solidify monsters at will to defend herself and others. I think she’ll be fine.
 
Fangirls taking care of Jack doesn’t sound like a good idea.
 
You know, having traps like Magic Cylinder or Wall of Disruption might be helpful. Just saying.
 
Witch of the Black Rose is such a cute card.
 
Hey, Crow and Akiza interacting. That’s a nice change-of-pace.
 
I just realized that Akiza countered the guy’s spell after he paid the cost. Nice timing.
 
“Tuner? So he uses Synchos” Who doesn’t in 5D’s other than some of the villains?
 
“I have no interest in frivolous women.” Nothing to add, it’s just a good line against that hoe.
 
Kind of weird how the card game is named after a character and not the card game’s in-universe name, Duel Monsters.
 
That was an unfortunate shot of Yusei, making it look like he’s enjoying the duel too much.
 
Something about the purple tinted close-ups between Yusei and Jack that I find hilarious.
 
Wait, so now they remember that fusions are a thing? And Yusei never used fusions before, so this is coming out of nowhere.
 
How does the guy not have any means to his bi-horned-horse? And Yusei used Scrap-Iron Scarecrow, because of course.
 
Also, bi-horned-horse looks weird for some reason. It’s animation doesn’t fit what we saw earlier, and just looks bad compared to the slower gallop that we’re used to in this series.
 
…What. Why? Was that build up about team-work and needing to work as a team to succeed for nothing? And now Yusei did beat a team almost solo, because he’s the main character. Nothing was learned, so everyone’s going to rely on plot-armor to save the day yet again. I remembering Jaden losing in GX, and it being used for plot and character development, so why not here? Was he suppose to lose but the drama behind the scenes changed that, like the kid wanting to steal Stardust?

Just finished the ep after that. I somehow deleted my reactions instead of cutting them. So the robot remembers that he’s a robot after seeing a kitten?

@Meanlucario
 
A lot of the staff left to work on Binds beyond time so many plot points in here were either discarded or ended up playing out differently.
 
The one where they lose to team unicorn makes me believe is one since they mention they have one last chance of advancing if they lose their match.
 
The WRPG seems to finally go where the series was due to in terms of genre (treating it like a sports anime) specially the way several events play during the first rounds.
