[DUNE] The Legendary “Illusion” School of Magic Step Out Of The Mists

A new legend arrives from the mists of Illusion!

New “Chimera” Usage Guide

“Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast” was a card used by Yami Yugi during Battle City. In the anime, when destroyed, it could Special Summon “Berfomet” or “Gazlle the King of Mythical Beasts” from the GY which helped Yugi in multiple pinches.

This theme introduces the new Illusionist-Type (幻想魔族), which has in the video games been localized as Illusionist or Dream. The term originally comes up from the manga as the magic type used by Pegasus J. Crawford for Illusionist Faceless Mage and Relinquished. It’s been generally used to cover Mythical Monsters, Reality Warpers and even Hypnosis and Illusions.
