I need a Bruno Santo explanation on this one, stat. I gotta know what Kronos thinks on this one. 2 1600 atk normal monsters in 2 days, and no normal support for dinosaurs? Crazy. What’s the Bruno take.
Wyrm is Phantom Dragon (that or Celestial Dragon)
lol i wanted to reply to @Toybel (comment after this one, oopsies 😅)
Dinosaur is the one Type in the game that cares the most about having massive amounts of ATK. That’s their gimmick. The issue is that Rush can’t have Level 4 Effect monsters with 1500+ ATK without making them Legends, and we just got Super Conductor Tyranno a few days ago so they are going with vanillas.
For who dont know:
The explain have a bunch monsters with dragon in name and no be dragon, is because in japanese have 4 dragon types
Dragon normal
Dinosaur, who the literal translate is ancient dragon
Sea serpent is sea dragon
Wyrm idk:V
Wyrm is Phantom Dragon (that or Celestial Dragon)
We now have Twin Headed King Rex and Crawling Dragon 2 in the same pack. Maybe we will also get their fusion Bracchio-raidus, although that card is a bit janky in modern rush duels
Beyond specific Dino normal support (likely fusions as well considering the two revealed so far) I have no clue what these are meant to be beyond pack filler. At least with Rush, pack filler has a lot more potential than OCG filler cards and it’s still a normal monster with 1600 attack.
If it wasn’t a deck-build pack I’d say they might be going for a Two-headed king rex deck like what they did for 5GD and other notable monsters in YGO’s history
Dinosaur has two gimmicks in the original format – destroying themselves for advantage and having high ATK for their Levels.
Since the first can’t be done in Rush they are going with the second. But in Rush any Level 4 Effect monster with 1500+ ATK must be a Legend, and Dinosaur just got their themed Legend monster a few days ago.
Triple Build Packs have a lot of cards devoted to each theme as well and Dinosaur unlike the other themes doesn’t have as many reprints hence the need for pack filler like this.
Bruno Santos Where are you? We need your explanation
Bruno has somewhat inaccurate takes on the meta so much that the Rush fansubber, who is friends with the second best Rush player in the world, called him out on his takes.
Can they cancel Rush Duels to put the resources back into Master Duels
