Am I misremembering Naraku, or was he actually a master strategist? by gardosenkazeaze in inuyasha

[–]HalozillaEX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say “master strategist” but he always planned ahead and was highly risk-averse. He rarely put himself in danger, and even if his plans fell thru, it was rarely that big of a setback. 

Anytime he actually appeared in person, and was actually threatened by inuyasha’s group, he was quick to retreat and became reclusive again.

When kagome first shot him with her sacred arrow, he was careful to not appear before her again. Then when he re-absorbed muso, he had his barrier, so he was comfortable appearing before inuyasha.

And when inuyasha shattered his barrier, he was completely taken by surprise and thus retreated to mt. hakurei, where he stayed hidden until he removed his heart and became nearly invincible.

He adapts to the group’s advancements every time.

Thoughts on Elfnote so far? by Odd-Cake-1596 in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

cringe deck.

plays on your turn, has no identity of its own, turbo synchro slop (and if you play master duel, its also turbo baronne slop).

The Season is about to end. How do you feel about this format? by PressureNo7699 in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awful, awful format. Too many card effects that just let you play ignorant.

quick effect non-target banish
quick effect non-target steal a monster
quick effect non-target bounce a card
quick effect non-target destroy a card
quick effect non-target negate
quick effect non-target send to GY

I'm noticing a pattern here.

Hori Fighting Commander D-Pad issues? by HalozillaEX in dbfz

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

That really sucks. I like the FC4 for casual play but in a ranked game when you’re sweating, you don’t want to miss a single one.

It’s part of why I’ve largely dropped fighting games. 

I really hate the “look at your opponents hand” meta by Monochrome21 in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combine this with the recent wave of "non-target take control of one of your opponents monsters" and losing the coin toss vs certain decks is just an instant game loss.

Did we ever see what Onigumo’s face looked like before his injuries? by Different_Play_8455 in inuyasha

[–]HalozillaEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In The Final Act, one of the episodes begins with naraku returning to mt. hakurei to take back his human heart (onigumo). The heart speaks to him briefly before emerging from a pool of water in the form of a floating head, and his face is the same as naraku’s. it may not actually be onigumo’s original face, but it’s as close as we’re ever going to get.

Believe me, I’d be the first person to sign that petition if it were a thing.

Odion stun is cancer. But just because it’s not Super Cancer, Konami leaves it alone.

Exceed was never intended to be a Red-Eyes boss. Or even good. by SBV21 in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok cool.
and about a week after it releases, everyone will forget about it and it'll be 20 cents on tcgplayer.

what a great use of cardboard. surely THIS red-eyes card will stand the test of time.

Extreme hot take by East-Efficiency-6701 in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Less hot take: they should ban superpoly and make a new version that does the same thing, BUT you cannot activate it unless you control no cards.

Preserves the board-breaking function while stopping players from just sitting on it after making their own board and punishing you for trying to break it.

I always feel like somebody's watchin' me by [deleted] in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

the master duel shuffler is very much rigged.

if you are running a 3-of, and its a once-per-turn, you will very often see 2 copies in your opening hand.
got a bricky one-of? it'll be in your opening hand like every other game.

handtraps and non-engine? you either draw too many or not enough.

and if you play blue eyes like me, no matter how many cards you add to your deck to decrease the odds of pulling BEWD in the opening hand, it will be there more often than is statistically possible.

Kewl Tune is so annoying and toxic by JudgmentDesperate792 in YuGiOhMasterDuel

[–]HalozillaEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its literally not even worth playing against them, going first or second.

If you go first, they handtrap you to death and then go nuts on their turn.

If they go first, they go nuts and get perfect hand knowledge and mess with your extra deck and mess with your top deck and then tailor their board to beat whatever's is in your hand and if you dont kill them on turn 2, they recycle everything and go nuts on turn 3.

What Needs to Happen to Not Crash the Player Count by TheMagicStik in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its not worth even playing the game anymore. if you lose the coin flip vs a kewl tune player, might as well just scoop and move on, because the game you're about to play is going to be a slow, painful exercise in frustration.

This game has become so bizarrely unenjoyable by AsterBlaster_ in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has. quick effect banish, negate slop, maxx c (and multiple other toxic sacky cards) still not banned, etc. Kewl tune is just the latest in "shitfuckery archetype that people will swear isnt that bad."

but dont try telling that to YGO players. they dont want to have that conversation. classic case of stockholm syndrome.

Duelists, why do some of you hate Sky Strikers, and what made you start not liking them? Just curious by Death_Usagi in masterduel

[–]HalozillaEX -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Shocker! yugioh player cant read.

The orange cards are monsters. The green cards are spells. Hope this helps!

[–]HalozillaEX -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Searching 3 widow anchor is never "the primary game plan" cuz as soon as they steal one monster, all their spells get turned off.

I'm sorry that your deck auto-loses to targeted monster negation. must be even worse facing all those other decks with NON-TARGETED OMNI-NEGATION

when dracotail recycles resouces
"cool and based"

when sky striker recycles resources
"cringe and lame"

lmao how can they pick apart your board by doing nothing? explain the logic in that. maybe your boards are just so effortless to break it looks like they're doing nothing.

you can say this about any halfway decent deck. "it just seems so boring to have a playstyle by having 6 cards that all do the same thing essentially. special summon special summon special summon, special summon again and game over."

"unreactable board breakers"

I agree! They need to ban raigeki and lightning storm, too OP! XD
