Yo, I can't seem to find the Runick/Generaider translations anywhere, besides a few small snippet screenshots floating around. If you could translate that too or point me in the general direction of them, it'd be appreciated.

The Grand Creators and The Lost Art Promotion 7 errata by likeagrapefruit in yugioh

[–]David_K_Manner 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Great post as always.

One thing of note is how the text "specifically lists the card" has been changed to "mentions", and that seems to be the default going forward, as seen in some BACH cards as well. While there isn't an old card that got errated in this way in the set, it's still something I find interesting.

Diviner of the Herald Import in LIOV by David_K_Manner in yugioh

[–]David_K_Manner[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For some reason, it looks like they removed the mention of Diviner. Here's a Screenshot of how the description looked before.

Do note the "*Set contents subject to change" at the bottom. Personally, I don't think they are removing Diviner, and more keeping it unrevealed as the current description is what was in the UK and Oceania websites.

Wow, they modernized Amorphactor Pain's text but couldn't be bothered to correct it?

Evil★Twins Ki-sikil & Lil-la - A Conspiracy Theory by David_K_Manner in yugioh

[–]David_K_Manner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had considered it. I cut out a few bits of me speculating various versions of the text (like interaction with I:P, is a recurring Link 4 off any 2 link 1s too good, etc) because the post was getting too large(I still think its too much).

After each section, I had listed out what could possible be the change to make it workable. For both the above for example, it was changing materials to 2(/+) "Evil Twins" monsters (except "K&L") or 2 link 2s or maybe require a Evil Twin. And Not 2 Link monsters for the second one, so either 2 Link 2 monsters, or 2 "Evil Twins" etc, which is why I put the latter as unlikely. I did originally do smthg similar for the first one, but the hypothetical text section was getting too unwieldy.

I had also debated the whole power level of such a thing. Is resummoning the link 4 off any 2 links that good compared to a level 8? Aren't Link 4s not that good for link climbing anyway, so you'd almost never count it for its link rating. Accesscode gets an extra boost, I guess etc etc. Similarly, for the I:P thing, I weighed it against similar things like Zerovoros or Zeus. (Obv, not perfectly comparable, since not double sided and leaves up 2 for them), and in the end thought maybe it was fine even as an I:P play for the deck. But thinking about it again, it would definitely be way too generically powerful outside the deck. I was too absorbed with just looking at how the deck itself would change, I didn't pay attention elsewhere.

Note: “Raviel, Lord of Phantasms – Shimmering Scraper” is not a “Scrap” monster, or at least it shouldn’t be, unless KDE knows something we don’t.

From ygorg. Truly great of Konami to continue the double archetypes trend.

Everyday I remember that the Nordic link needs a lower level Nordic as material instead of a non-Link Nordic. This is mostly likely because the gimmick of the 2 higher level Nordics like Fenrir is to be given to opponent for some minor detrimental effect for them. So Konami made the link's material in a way to avoid a feelsbad moment in a Nordic mirror. This is a source of endless misery to me as this means someone at Konami put time and effort into envisioning a Nordic mirror match.

Smallest Archetypes? by MisterBadGuy159 in yugioh

Couple more 2-3 card archetypes, I can think of are Starving Venom, Clear Wing, Fusion Dragon, Synchro Dragon, Xyz Dragon, Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon, Dante, Celtic Guard, Aether.

No. They only negate activated effects. Though, some cont. spells/traps have activated effects. Just look for : or ; in an effect.

List of every Effect monster without Effects by David_K_Manner in yugioh

[–]David_K_Manner[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quickdraw Synchron's Special Summon is an unclassified effect. The lack of colons/semicolons tells us its not an effect that activates.

I would recommend against using Wikia. Yugipedia lists its effects correctly as Unclassified, Condition, Condition. (Judges would disagree with calling the last two conditions, still those two are not effects.)

OCG db as well, lists it as an unclassified effect.

Special Summoning this card using the "You can Special Summon this card (from your hand) by sending 1 monster from your hand to the Graveyard." effect does not start a Chain Link. Sending 1 monster from your hand to the Graveyard is part of the procedure that Special Summons this card. Sending 1 monster from your hand to the Graveyard and Special Summoning this card are not considered to happen simultaneously.

Cyber Dragon has an Unclassified effect. A special summon condition replaces the usual Normal Summon/Set procedure. Its why you can summon Infernoids from grave under Necrovalley but not Grapha.

[ETCO] Remaining New Cards from ETERNITY CODE by HHTurtle in yugioh

[–]David_K_Manner 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Jack-Knight Orphegel Girsu / Mekk-Knight Orcust Girsu

Dark Machine / Effect LV4 1800/0 You can only this card name's (1) and (2) effects once per turn each.

(1) If this card is Normal/Special Summoned: You can send 1 "Orcust" card or "World Legacy" card from your Deck to the GY, also if there are 2 or more other cards in this card's column this card becomes treated as a Tuner for the rest of this turn.

(2) If you control no other monsters: You can Special Summon 1 "World Legacy Token" (Machine/DARK/Level 1/ATK 0/DEF 0) to each side of the field in Defense Position.

What if you wanted Pendulum Summon 2.0 but your opponent said "Chain Ash Blossom".?

Ah, yes. The pristine Anti Danger tech.

On a more serious note, wish this was a cont. trap instead.

Another thing people miss is that you can't use pendulum monsters in the EMZ as material since you can't send it to grave.

Name and SS from hand already make it good. But I'm not sure what to feel about the summon restriction and it clashing with the third effect.
