    [DAMA-EN] Despia

    NeoArkadiaBy NeoArkadiaJuly 27, 2021No Comments

    Or: Whoever’s translating is asleep at the wheel.

    Aluber the Jester of Despia
    Level 4 DARK Fairy Effect Monster
    ATK 1800
    DEF 0
    If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can add 1 “Despia” Spell/Trap from your Deck to your hand. If a face-up Fusion Monster you control is destroyed by battle, or leaves the field because of an opponent’s card effect, while this card is in your GY: You can target 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls; Special Summon this card, and if you do, negate the targeted monster’s effects until the end of this turn. You can only use 1 “Aluber the Jester of Despia” effect per turn and only once that turn.

    Note: This proxy has an enormous translation error that basically renders the “Despia” Deck almost non-functional. Aluber in the Official Card Game searches “Branded” cards, not “Despia” cards.

    Despain Quaeritis
    Level 8 LIGHT Fiend Fusion Effect Monster
    ATK 2500
    DEF 2500
    Materials: 1 “Despia” monster + 1 LIGHT or DARK monster
    During the Main Phase (Quick Effect): You can change the ATK of all monsters currently on the field to 0 until the end of this turn, except Level 8 or higher Fusion Monsters. If this face-up card in its owner’s control leaves the field because of an opponent’s card effect: YOu can add to your hand, or Special Summon, 1 “Fallen of Albaz” or 1 “Despia” monster, from your Deck. You can only use each effect of “Despian Quaeritis” once per turn.

    Protecting Spirit Loagaeth
    Level 7 LIGHT Fairy Effect Monster
    ATK 2400
    DEF 2100
    If this card on the field is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can target 1 monster on the field; it cannot be destroyed by battle this turn. You can only use each of the following effects of “Protecting Spirit Loagaeth” once per turn. If an effect of a Fairy Monster you control is activated (except during the Damage Step): You can Special Summon this card from your hand. You can target 1 face-up card your opponent controls and 1 Attack Position monster you control; banish that opponent’s card, and if you do, change your monster to Defense Position.

    Note: In so far as we know, no she is not Ecclesia.

    Dramaturge of Despia
    Level 8 DARK Fairy Effect Monster
    ATK 3000
    DEF 1500
    If a Fusion, Synchro, Xyz or Link Monster is Special Summoned (except during the Damage Step): You can target 1 Effect Monster on the field; negate its effects until the end of this turn. If this card in your hand or field is used as Fusion Material, and sent to the GY or banished: You can Special Summon this card. You can only use each effect of “Dramaturge of Despia” once per turn.

    Note: This is erroneous, but not as severe as Aluber.

    TCG: If this card in your hand or field is used as Fusion Material

    vs

    OCG: If this card in the hand or field is used as Fusion Material for a Fusion Summon

    As per X-Brain:

    It’s a bit subtle but it can make a difference in a couple of situations:

    • The first is that it wouldn’t go off if, say, your opponent Mind Controls your copy and fuses it away in a mirror match, but it is supposed to
    • The second is that it would go off if used for a Contact Fusion (i.e. a Elemental HERO Neos or so such similar Fusion), which is not supposed to

    Despia, Theater of the Branded
    Field Spell Card
    During your Main Phase: You can Fusion Summon 1 Level 8 or higher Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters from your hand or field as Fusion material. If a face-up non-Fusion Fairy monster you control leaves the field by an opponent’s card effect, or is destroyed by battle: You can target 1 Level 8 or higher Fusion Monster in your GY; Special Summon it. You can only use each effect of “Despia, Theater of the Branded” once per turn.

    Branded Opening
    Quick-Play Spell Card
    Discard 1 card, then take 1 “Despia” monster from your Deck, and either add it to your hand or Special Summon it in Defense Position, also for the rest of this turn after this card resolves, you cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck, except Fusion Monsters. If a Fusion Monster(s) you control would be destroyed by card effect, you can banish this card from your GY instead. You can only use each effect of “Branded Opening” once per turn.

    Despian Proskenion
    Level 11 LIGHT Fiend Fusion Effect Monster
    ATK 3200
    DEF 3200
    Materials: 1 “Despia” monster + 1 LIGHT monster + 1 DARK monster
    During the Main Phase (Quick Effect): You can target 1 Fusion, Synchro, Xyz or Link Monster in your opponent’s GY; banish it or Special Summon it to your field. When this card destroys an opponent’s monster by battle: You can inflict damage to your opponent equal to that monster’s original ATK or DEF (whichever is higher). You can only use each effect of “Despian Proskenion” once per turn.

    Despian Tragedy
    Level 1 DARK Fairy Effect Monster
    ATK 400
    DEF 400
    If this card is sent to the GY, or banish, by a card effect: You can add 1 “Despia” monster from your Deck to your hand, except “Despian Tragedy”. You can banish this card from your GY, then target 1 “Branded” Spell/Trap in your GY; Set it to your field. You can only use 1 “Despian Tragedy” effect per turn, and only once that turn.

    Despian Comedy
    Level 1 DARK Fairy Effect Monster
    ATK 0
    DEF 2000
    When your opponent activates a card or effect that targets a face-up “Despia” card(s) you control (Quick Effect): You can discard this card; negate that effect. If this card is in your GY (Quick Effect): You can Tribute 1 Fusion Monster; Special Summon this card. You can only use 1 “Despian Comedy” effect per turn, and only once that turn.
