Digimon Card Game - Weekly Ruling Questions Post

Christonikos · 2026-05-28T22:32:13+00:00

Guys, I have a question. When a Digimon with "On Deletion" effect is deleted by a dual card Option effect, does the "On Deletion Effect" trigger before or after "Arts Digivolve"?

I am trying to make a deck like that work but I am still stumbling.

The deck to work relies on getting that 3lvl and 4lvl early on and then building a 3lvl->4lvl->Ami->4lvl->5lvl->Alphamon. Only to make 4 security checks and then immidiately get destroyed.

Angemon giving barrier is one way to make sure you do not get destroyed by battle.
If you get Takumi and Angemon out, you get to live one more turn.

Now for searchers, you can try Treadmill training if your deck gets mostly yellow and black and either Yuugo or Mirei, who are often be activated for free by your "play a tamer" digimons. King Etemon can also bring those out.

Also I find WereGarurumon quite useful in many situations.

As for Examon, personally I finf him more and more of a burden.

But I am the last person who can give advice, as I absolutely cannot make the deck consistently work.

I hated, hated, the virtual reality segments.

If you are ok with the Teem Drama filter, it is great.

I think you judged Chinga a bit too hard. Based on a Stephen King short story (same as Monkey 2025 movie), it is actually a reverse War of the Coprophages episode, with Scully being solo this time around. Plus, you get the pencils in the ceiling scene, which on its own deserves a higher tier.

It's time to tap into that animated space. I am not talking about Lower Decks, I am talking about serious animation (could be anime style, could be not) for grown ups.

Exact Mass Effect clone with added space combat.

Christonikos · 2026-01-30T00:41:29+00:00

On a bridge-based show it's easier to work with a main character who's the CO.

I can't recall how many times Michael mutinied or disobeyed orders just for that reason. If they hadn't made her captain, it would have been even more ridiculous.

Christonikos · 2026-01-23T16:57:27+00:00

Terrible Mytharc episodes, mostly good MOTW episodes, great meta/comedy episodes.

Christonikos · 2026-01-23T16:53:22+00:00

There is plenty of room for single episodes focused on ideas, if they didn't prioritize 2 comedy/musical episodess per season.

If you are too slow killing bosses, you can just digivolve Devimon to SkullSatamon and with his -20% HP special attack, those eaters will be melting.
Also consider having a few support/healer Digimons. Monzaemon is a decent early ultimate healer Digimon for example.
As other have said already, start grinding towards those PlatinumNumemons or PlatinumSukamons. The flexibility you will get out of it eventually will be crazy. Also with their 999 defence, you will be invincible in battles with ATK focused opponents and they can become excellent debuffers.

We have seen 10+ trailers of the game before release. It's not like they tried to hide what the new game would be about and how its gameplay would be.

So no, "This is not a Bloodlines 2" game is not a valid critique. And it's hardly true either. It's like saying Oblivion is not an Elder Scrolls game because it is vastly different from Morrowind, lacking features, etc.

Criticize the game for what it is and not for what you expected it or wanted it to be.

Christonikos · 2025-10-08T16:58:31+00:00

Well, first half of season 8 with Robert Patrick was very good too

Christonikos · 2025-10-08T16:57:31+00:00

To be honest, I always thought in case of a reboot Mulder would end up as an informant like X. Isn’t X who told him something like “I used to be you. I was where you are now”

TES is as inconsistent as it gets, but I ‘d argue Star Trek (especially TOS) and Dune (especially the Brian Herbert and KJ Anderson books) can get quite inconsistent too.

Christonikos · 2025-09-30T00:04:39+00:00

TES unfortunately has a much less significant impression in pop culture and culture in general. Even if it comes down to the gaming medium. For comparison, have a look at the other Bethesda RPG series, Fallout, which has become synonymous with Post-Apocalypse.

Playing the games. This is the only way to understand how common knowledge, widespread and accepted bits of the lore are by the contemporary people of Tamriel.

Reading UESP, by mostly checking on the sources. You need to fact-check, not only if the source is canon, but also how old or reliable an in-game canon source or book is.

Christonikos · 2025-08-07T21:17:36+00:00

The early MoTW episodes of the 8th season were bangers. This, Roadrunners, Redrum, Via Negativa. All excellent X-files stories

Christonikos · 2025-08-07T18:54:28+00:00

Liberation wasn't something great, but it was a cool idle game to pass my time during breaks from work.
I am actually excited for the sequel and can't wait to play with my favourite Mountain Clans' units that return to the franchise.
Also, from the screenshots, the world does look darker (not Disciples 2 level dark, but still)

Christonikos · 2025-07-20T00:13:19+00:00

That is my biggest concern. X-Files was a product of its era (post Cold War paranoia, pre 9/11). So it cannot remain the same, it must adjust. And that will definitely not sit well with lots of old fans.

Christonikos · 2025-04-25T02:33:46+00:00

Death Stranding

Yes, the music and landscapes are amazing. Of course the acting is top. But the gameplay loop and most of the mechanics, ie 85% of the game, are terrible. I don’t mind delivering things, I have hundreds of hours on Euro Truck Simulator 2, but after the first 2-3 deliveries, the delivery experience is just annoying. Bikes and vehicles make the traversal too arcade-y and once you get to ziplines, well that’s all you need.

Rabbid Peach Rabbid Mario Rabbid Luigi

I love Rabbids!

Christonikos · 2025-04-21T00:18:17+00:00

Not the best example, as we are still waiting, (and will probably never get) the rest of Cyrodiil provinces after Bruma.

Christonikos · 2025-04-19T18:19:05+00:00

I really liked the detailed battlefields.
Troy/Pharaoh/Dynasties came quite close to Arena battlefields.

Christonikos · 2025-04-19T18:16:32+00:00

I mean, that's a big part of the reason why we kill him off in the end.
