hmmm. There’s something there with that spell card.
Somebody is going to make a fun and terrible Metalmorph deck with these and I want to see it.
So cool! And I love that it’s equip support!
Neat to see some Yugioh R cards get printed
These are pretty terrible all things considered.
They are pretty nice to make something unique on this present of time.
Average Yu-Gi-Oh R original.
Twenty years out of date.
What is terrible is having to wait 27 years for support for og equips that function like a gun/sword, even if that is the most basic design space. It’s best not to bring up how that design space was treated later. And you still can’t build a generic non-archetype sea serpent deck, etc. what are we even doing here?
20 years ago you wouldn’t have search in every text box. 20 years ago Mirror Barrier would be solely defensive (as the name trap implies) instead of equipped target gains deathtouch and first strike.
Are these the Duel Monster era reveals?
They’re used by the main antagonist’s brother in R.
@N so i take it this will be what we get for the DM era stuff right?
Almost the perfect complement to Fairy Tail, too bad they forgot to add 100 more to Learning Elf’s attack (clearly a coincidence)
It’s interesting, if anything.
Learning Elf pfp guy, if your out there somewhere, I wish you well.
“Armament Reincarnation”
The mad lads actually did it. I had an idea on how to translate this card to mtg but I scoffed at the notion of the ocg ever releasing it. Let me say that “…with an effect to equip themselves to a monster” is very clever. The Tenma Gekko deck dream is no longer just a meme.
Yeah, I’m shocked as well.
And, for no reason whatsoever to do with this announcement, about to buy up stuff for Maha/Ben Kai OTK. Coincidentally.
This support is giving me Ben Kei OTK flashbacks…
card better than Amazement Attendant Comica
Prepare to be pecked at by a bunch of 500 ATK Bamboo Swords.
Armament Reincarnation with United We Stand and Mage Power for caveman-style OTK?
It’s fragile as hell, but funny.
I mean, Ben Kai Turbo *is* a thing . . .
So now Benkei Turbo has a plan B, I guess?
Use Armament Reincarnation, grab all your equips that are in GY and either spread them on the tokens or just put on one of them depending on situation and just go nuts.
Maybe next year, then, we can get the other 3 Elf monsters from Gekkou and “ELf” can finally be a canon archetype in OCG. Also, why does Learning Elf only pull equipping Trap cards? Gekkou has FIVE Equip Spells.
I had to make a post when I found out but I can’t believe its taken over 20 years for Learning Elf to actually be released! It kept the draw effect but I never expected it to have a built in trap equipment search effect, Armament Reincarnation is bizzare as well.
Just for clarification, how broadly can “Armament Reincarnation” pick traps?
Do traps work which also summon a monster like the new metal morph cards?
And do traps work which equip themself via an effect like “if this card is send to the gy you can equip it”, instead of the usual equip on activation?
As long as it has ANY effect that equips itself to a monster, regardless of clause, I’m 89% certain it counts.
