New Talwar seems fun
It seems like anti-Graydle but that’s just me
And anti-Noble Knights, anti-Infernoble Knights, and Anti-Mikanko… basically anti anything that uses equip spells as their primary strategy
It actually does nothing to Graydles. It won’t stop their monster effects from targeting a monster since it’s not an Equip Spell effect, and won’t do anything once they resolve and equip them to something, they will just work as usual. The only things it prevents are targeting them with the activation of an Equip Spell or the activated effect of an Equip Spell.
Vendread, Myutants.
Closer still to Thief and Knights.
C’mon Konami, give them to me.
Also ripple bird is mimighoul support
That Ripple Bird looks annoying and the Continued Saga of Everyones Favorite, Misguided and Always Lost in the Sauce, Mr Simp.
5 normal monsters with different names in my gy? never happenin bro
inb4 Snake Rain for normal monsters
Gemini monsters
Magikey: Skill Issue.
There’s always a slew of people who suddenly appear to defend these unplayable dogwater cards. To reiterate, for the people in the back: never happening, bro.
Bedge is that kind of player thinking YGO is always about broken cards, getting rid of any fun element about the card game. You forget how the “fun players” also help keep the game alive. So, “never happening, bro” is a selfish lie, you can keep living in your world of metagame, no one care about your tournament results, and maybe even rage quit just because you can’t win against an orthodox strategy.
Okay, so I didn’t expect to be so invested in Warrior Dai Grepher’s love life, yet here I am.
I’ve watched too much anime. DD Post counts as “artwork you can hear” for me.
Minimalian is broken. There are so much possibilities with this card. The other ones has so much potential.
Agreed. Even by banishing itself you can summon Myutant M-05, Myutant ST-46, and Super Quantum Blue Layer all 3 of them search on summon.
Minimalian is quite a card, no other way to describe it
The rank 1, while initially reads terrible, is actually pretty cracked mimighoul support (it’s not once per turn and, unlike Number 31/Number 13, it can flip mons on both fields, allowing you to pull of some “funny” shenanigans more consistently (Mainly with Jars))
The zombie stuff is broken and the cont spell has potential, the toil of the normal could be good in an hypotetical future where normal mons pile becomes somehow functional
As somebody who always bricks with high level zombies, I appreciate Vulcarrion a great deal.
Zombie Tuner and R1nk birb are decent. Everything else is trash.
“Ripple Bird” is more than decent, especially in a level 1 deck like Lyrilusc. That is a major boost for them.
I’d say “The Toil of the Normal” is pretty good, especially in something like a Tenyi, Primite or Magikey deck with a large number of different normal monsters to use.
and “D.D. Post” might be good in a Vaalmonica deck if paired with cards that want to be banished, while getting back the spell/trap cards you banish to activate the Vaalmonica link monsters effects. Or maybe Swordsoul, where you can retrieve important banished monsters without weaking your Sovereign
The Toil of the Normal would work better if it could be set with its own effect from the graveyard to the field or had slightly stronger effects
No insects 🙁
we got Zombie package this time. I was hoping we’d get a generic Zombie ritual too considering last time we got an Insect fusion. But we got Vulcarrion instead.
I wonder what type will get a 3-card package in the next set. They seem to be influenced by past TCG archetypes. Maybe Psychic, considering next set will have the Heraldics. But psychic that leans into Kozmo.
Dark Dimension Warrior looks so cool on the artwork of Shadow Severing Strike!
So glad we have another card featuring him. And it’s a signature attack/effect card at that!
I can respect the edge that is Beast of Talwar – The Sword Summit.
Ripple Bird: Pretty interesting Ancient Fairy Dragon Support if you can somehow make it in that especially with that last effect.
D.D. Post is hilarious in both artwork and effect. The new Diabellstar banishes both a Spell and Trap card. If yiou banished this and the recent Diabell Spell that if banished you get 500 extra attack you now get 900 more on top of this + the ability to place this onto the field again.
I want to play the Beast of Talwar retrain myself but unfortunately it removes my Mikanko and Flame Flame Swordsman Dragon ideas out the window being Anti-Equip. It is an easy level 7 though…
Minima is helpful for my own personal reasons such as Banishing Gagaga Magician to Summon Girl or Sister from the deck then Summon Clerk or Child for Rank 4 plays if Sister or if Girl you then find a way to Summon Magician Back.
Shadow Servering Strike has a lot of ideas in my head like banishing with the recent Diabellstar again to add back a monster you have banished or use that Diabellstar and so on to draw cards or banish threats.
Pretty nice funny cards.
Beast of Talwar is a cool side deck card
Shadow Servering Strike is also good in Myutants, Bird help forcing flip the minighols
I was expecting more zombie support
Ripple Bird definitely has a place in a Lyrilusc Deck.
Also, I find it funny that this came out after I spent some time trying to think up a Beast of Talwar retrain.
Talwar doesn’t entirely stop equips because he doesn’t protect himself it says “other monsters”
Dai Grepher continues to be down Bad for D D Warrior lady.
Vulcarrion has a sick artwork.
D.D. Post can be used in Metaphys.
They couldn’t just name it The Archfiend of Talwar this time? They really wanted to print the whole archetype clause sentence?
Considering they have fixed “Novox, disciple of the VV” to “Lo, the Prayers of the VV”. So, it can match the jp name. I don’t understand why they don’t fix this one. Also Novox’s name is still better, hate it when they have to change that name 😠
D.D. Post finally gives me a one-card omni-recycler.
No Wind Dragon Mech is pretty lame considering there’s both speedroid and crystron in this set.
Minimalian is a Bemani reference! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FVtQObS8-k&pp=ygUPbWluaW1hbGlhbiBpaWR4
That continuous spell seems broken. Imagine have 2 of it, you can draw 4 each turn!
Actually, you cannot. The restriction includes the effects that apply or give.
Dai Grepher’s simping is getting out of hand.
There are more anti-equip floodgates than anti-link ones. This makes me furrow my brow.
LYRILUSC SUPPORT COMING!?
Anyways the birb isnt that strong sadly🥲.
The Gren Maju player in me wants to find a way to use that Water Psychic with Necroface.
If only it said type OR attribute…
Nobody talking how Minamalian is pretty much broken? I mean any deck that works with banishment like thunder dragon transforms his cost into a +1 or even more, he CAN SUMMON FROM THE DECK you guys remember why Summon Sorceress was banned? and she was a Link 3 now look at mister “you need your Combo starter? Don’t worry i will give you your combo starter” just imagine all the Shenanigans that Dragon Link can make with him is kinda worrying
Should effect monsters be able to respond to normal s/t support? NO, but even so enjoyers of specific normal monsters or normal enjoyers in general are eating well.
I am now sitting here trying to carry the one on whether or not Ripplebird works in Floowandereeze. 🤔
