I have ideas for this
Seems good for dumping stuff in gy still atleast
Jaden had Miracle Fusion and Miracle Contact in his hand and purposely chose certain weaker monsters in his deck to Foolish them into the graveyard.
That’s how Jaden use this against Yugi 😂
Freakin combo it with Miracle Fusion and Miracle Contact
Im aware
Irl if you use this to dump, your opponent can just reveal maxx c or droll , imagine 😭 or even worse habakiri 💀
So the effect is only turned off for a given monster for the player that chose it, not both players? Guess that ruins YouTube’s idea of turning off Handtraps
I’m surprised to see that this card is almost entirely unchanged from the anime. The effect lockdown on the chosen monsters is awkward, but this still reeks of war crimes.
In my head, I’m like
Step 1) get a Ritual deck that doesn’t care about level overflow
Step 2) Use this card to search out those 4000/5000 Atk Bullet/Rocket Trains just to deny them whatever monster they think to pull
You now have Ritual Material for your Rituals.
The other option was either take the damage to get some weak “activate when sent to the graveyard”/”banish from graveyard to activate effect” monsters. Oh! Does each activation of this card’s effect trigger Vaalmonica’s resonance counter gain separately, or does it only consider this card one activation?
you cant activate effect that turn the when sent are useless
Please print Code Change 🙏 and reprint Mystical Refpanel.
Mystical refpannel should get way more than a reprint, it should get a full on retrain
That card is incredibly interesting and the concept as a lot of potential, but it not only is slow, its also extremely unclear when you can even
They should make an entire achetype at this point about redirecting attacks and effects, and give that deck the retrain of that card
I’m kind of surprised they didn’t slip in an “Elemental HERO Neos” mention. I’m even more surprised they didn’t add some anti-Nibiru clause in there.
It wouldn’t make sense to mention Neos when that has essentially nothing to do with how the card was used in the anime.
Each player cannot activate the effects of monsters with the same name as the monster they chose for the rest of this turn
Yeah, the rest of THIS turn. Not your opponents, which is generally when you’d get the most use out of Nibiru.
I hope they do the new DM support reveals next! A lot of us are excited and cannot wait! This is going to be a crazy year for Yu-Gi-Oh, well, the original Duel Monsters!
This gives your opponent way too much advantage to be worth it.
This card seems abusable in the right deck.
I will use this on my gate guardian deck.
Pretty good for A-Z deck
Shoot even Sacred deck into fusion
Can we please get Gaggigo Solo Mode in Master Duel? I might actually start playing the game again. NOT!
Wonder why they changed TIES to shuffle back in.
I assume it was made so that cant just spam 0 ATK monsters and always get the wanted outcome
Because if they would be destroyed either ina tie or when they lose, you could just pick 3 0 ATK monsters and are guaranteed to have them dumped int he GY, no matter if the opponent has a counter for that
This card is about gambling and a fun minigame, and (I assume) thats why they decided that, to prevent the card from having any consistency at all
I really didn’t think we’d eventually have a consistent way to summon “The Last Warrior from Another Planet”.
Probably the most entertaining promo card they’ve released so far
Why would that be a conistent way to summon it?
It allows you to place the materials in your graveyard or hand so you can summon it via fusion. It’s not the ideal solution, but compared to before, it’s quite viable
I can’t forgive gx endgame for using the coffin itself from magical dimension to destroy wingman, that’s not how this works, that’s not how any of this works.
Is this card saying Dark Blade was once Marauding Captain…..twin swords
Oh, a 2nd Foolish for Wights, rad
How does this interact with stuff that changes names in the grave, like Cyber Dragon Herz or Wightprince?
They didnt mention original name, so as long as the name is already changed when the condition for any of the effects triggers, then they should be able to use their effects
Good catch
Dark Blade, Marauding Captain, Freed, some Necroshade lookin monster? Gagagigo, and…. Does anyone know the Dragon on the top right? I cannot for the life of me tell what it is
oh found it. Terrorking Archfiend & Divine Dragon Ragnarok. Interesting two choices
What is the interaction of this card with droll ? Like, can you even activate this card under droll ?
Knowing that uncertainty in yugioh always counts as all possible conditions (See “Gravekeeper’s Servant” and how it interacts with cards like “Dimensional fissure”, where it does not work at all because there is a possibility that a monster could be send to the GY, and that simply cant happen because monsters cant be send to the GY under d fissure), i would say that this card cant be activated under droll, because there is a possibility that a player might add a card to their hand
You can use this as a 3x sales ban on handtraps to insulate your turn 1, even though it wouldnt work against the fuwas and impulses and you make your opponent go +3. But if you run a ftk it might be worth it.
no you can’t, it only prevents the chooser from activating their chosen cards
This seems like a very fun card to play around with, while i don’t know if it’s fully needed quite a few decks would really like an effect like this.
– I can see Dino players picking this up as a free pop for Babycerasaurus or Petiteranodon
– Unchained could use it as a Sharvara searcher or if it gets destroyed a free spell/trap searcher
-This basically acts a 1 card Phantom of Yubel:
~Subspace Battle! reveal Spirit of Yubel; Pop Spirit of Yubel; Spirit of Yubel Summon Yubel from deck: Shuffle Yubel and Spirit of Yubel Back into Deck Summon Phantom of Yubel.
– Fire king can use it to pop Ulcanix to summon Garunix from deck.
The main issue i potentially see with this is i don’t know if these benefits out weigh potentially giving your a free draw/mill.
I’m an idiot i did not read the rest of the card
Do both players reveal at the same time?
This is a board breaker of massive proportions! Reveal 3 Lava Golems (you’ll likely get all 3 to your hand) or Lava Golem and a couple Kaijus and pick your opponent’s field apart while also getting a Kaiju on your field if you want. The card only restricts you from activating the effects of the added monsters, not from summoning them.
If you can resolve this against an established board, you earned that win. Inherent summons do seem to be the only use other than the way Jaden actually used it, mind you.
This serves to turbo out Cosmo Neos. shame it doesn’t mention Neos so it could be searchable by ejector chan.
First of all, why not ? ATK monsters? They are treated as 0 ATK for anything unless speciffically specified anyways
And second of all… come on, these restrictions are way too hard for an already gimmicky card which may also gives the opponent some resources
Also, you cant even abuse the restrictions because they only apply to teh player who chose the monster, so you cant even disable hand traps with this
All in all a very interesting idea, but awfully executed
Actually I realized something
Do monsters count which arent monsters? So pendulum monsters in the pendulum zones, or monsters that got placed in the S/T zone as a spell or trap?
Because if not, the card might be playable in some pendulum deck
Also it doesnt look like it inhibits alternative summoning conditions, so you could still bring out whatever you add to your hand as long as it isnt summoned via an effect
So this is x3 ROTA and immediate +2 in card advantage for Malefics, who will always have higher ATK than everything else, who can also summon themselves from the hand immediately due to their summoning condition not being an effect. This effectively reads: “Add 3 monsters from your Deck to hand whose names are either [Malefic Cyber End Dragon], [Malefic Rainbow Dragon], or [Malefic Truth Dragon]”. Did Konami finally lose their marbles or is this a mistranslation? Is this Konami preparing us for the 2026 unban of Painful Choice? What in the custom card is this?
Malefics arent good in the slightest, and their effects arent negated, so you can still only have one or attack with only one unless you have Zone or whatever its called already on the bord
And dont forget that your opponent gets free graveyard material from this, which they can emediately use in their turn, while you just get some beatsticks
I bet there is some monster which can abuse this card by having a non-effect self summoning condition, and a non-activated effect which applies on the field, but i dont know yet which would fit that description and would be the strongest for this
@Yod There is Liberator Eto, who literally doesn’t even care if he’s sent to the GY or added to the hand by this effect and can summon himself without having to activate an effect, while keeping his protection on the field as well.
Probably still not really worth running. Sure, it facilitates breaking boards and stuff but I don’t really think its value is high enough to replace other cards you’d rather run.
No floodgates, no handtraps, no towers, and no omni-negates
Final Destination
“Apply this effect 3 times.” is a new one
Instant +2 card advantage off 1 card with no setup is still insane, but you made a good point. The Spell is balanced because it has the same flaw as errataed Crush Card Virus – your opponent can just pick 3 low-ATK monsters with GY effects and go +3 themselves, which is unacceptable. With that in mind, I don’t see anyone using this Spell (except Malefic decks).
This sets up phantom of yubel which is aight
So glad this made the jump relatively unscathed. What a fun card!
