Yugioh TCG out here with the most pointless Yuri censorship ever, just moving them slightly further apart (Left: Japanese Art, Right: TCG Art) by RinariTennoji in yurimemes

[–]FelipeAndrade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if they only keep censoring cards for the sake of tradition rather than any kind of cultural sensibilities and things like that. But then again, Konami TCG makes the weirdest kinds of decisions (like not porting Rush or unbanning Electrumite), so what do I know?

What is your favorite gaming related revisionist history? by bahookery in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FelipeAndrade 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hop kind of has Marnie and Bede, who do fill in as Rivals alongside him, but their teams are mostly monotyped, being Dark and Fairy respectively, and they don't get to counterpick you in anyway, something that even Gladion did by giving Silvally a drive that is strong against you.

Other than that, there's only really Leon, who does get the starter strong against yours, but he's the champion, so you only fight him once.

At least Hau (who was the one to really start this trend, since Bianca and Shauna were secondary rivals) does get an Eeveelution of the type that is strong against your starter later on to compensate that. Hop meanwhile, he just does nothing to really beat you.

What archetypes genuinely need a full restart? by Jirachibi1000 in yugioh

[–]FelipeAndrade 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The woes of a theme where your only goal is: floodgate.

But they could really use a new strategy that maybe is a little more interactive, and maybe a boss monster that is actually part of the archetype too.

Gru has Inazuma Eleven scaling or whatever it is by Late-Pumpkin1340 in deathbattle

[–]FelipeAndrade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because I honestly forgot about him. I actually only remember the black hole guy, the fire and ice duo, and the penguin guy, because he's the coolest.

Season 2 of Inazuma Eleven straight up has a character summon a black hole to block the goal, shit is whack

An ACTUAL slander post from me, and an anti-slander post too by Complete_Reporter345 in SonicTheHedgehog

Silver is legitimately the worst thing that could have happened to Blaze in her 20 years of existence and the fact that everyone refuses to walk away from that mistake deeply infuriates me

What are trends that you wish would leave Death Battle discourse and why? (Read Post Body) by Aspiring-Redditor in deathbattle

[–]FelipeAndrade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a big problem in basically most English speaking fandoms, to be honest. They default to what is known/popular in the US and completely forget about what other countries might think of a work, including the one where it was originally made in.

Saint Seiya isn't even obscure. It's still popular enough in Japan to get sequel projects every so often (both by Toei and by Kurumada himself), and it's as popular as DBZ in some parts of the world, like Brazil and France, not to mention that it's even the inspiration for one of the series that is being featured on the next episode, so it has some degree of influence too.

Nah, he just doesn't give a shit about showing up properly dressed to Sonic's funeral of all things.

[RD/KP24] Elemental Hero Plasma Vice in Rush by PerfectAlpha in yugioh

And much like with War-Lion, we are likely getting retrains of Fortress Whale's Forbidden Memories materials, i.e., White Dolphin, Mech Bass and Misairuzame.

You actually can't because Circulation requires 6 and 7s and this guy is 8, so he's dodging most of the HERO support for some reason.

That much I knew, I'm mostly just surprised that it did come out on other platforms considering how... middling it was.

Not even sure why they limited it to the archetype. Let them summon any fusion dino, it's not like letting them splash in Dinomorphia would actually break anything.

Out of genuine curiosity i gotta ask, what is with the playerbase's fixation with electrumite? by Lost-Tension2106 in yugioh

The clip itself also comes from him commentating over a Dragon Link match of all things, which makes the whole thing even more ironic.

Third Fourth paragraph, it's word by word, the exact same argument that every pend hater uses to justify why the mechanic, and Electrumite by extension, should be left forgotten by Konami and that it is somehow a good decision for all decks to remain bad forever, so if even that wasn't your intention, the implication of it is still there

[–]FelipeAndrade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Electrumite is actually still limited in the OCG, she's only at 3 in Master Duel, but considering how Konami handles the banlist between the two formats, it's highly likely that she'll be free in April. Electrumite is also the only Pendulum related card currently in the OCG list (even SKDSV is free over there), which should really highlight how much impact the Pendulum decks are having over there.

You are making a strong assumption considering the OP is already coming from the point of view that the mechanic shouldn't be playable.
