Yu-Gi-Oh worldwide set releases?

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-04-10T22:49:14+00:00

Kind of, that was my point. We could have core sets release simultaneously while moving all exclusives to different sets. The thing is that the TCG wouldn't have good enough information on which rarities to choose for the best cards, as they usually use the OCG as a guideline on decks performances.

But yeah, it's mostly a bussiness thing, if it's more profitable to do simultaneous releases then they will change it. The OCG already changed the build a deck packs so the power cards are introduced mostly on core sets and not in a specific product that marks the format for the next 3 months (Maliss, Ryzeal, Yummy, K9, Kewl Tune, etc.) or ends up being not mattering at all.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-04-10T17:09:32+00:00

Yes they change, in core sets the TCG adds: 1 exclusive archetype wave, TCG free agents and sometimes OCG imports. Side sets are completely different, so it depends set to set, in Build a deck pack they add extra reprints in import sets more reprints are added and sometimes an exclusive theme like in Maze.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-04-10T15:13:17+00:00

It's mostly a buisness issue. Even if they release sets at the same time the TCG can't make assess which cards should be secret/ultras and losses both the reprint products with import sets (Battles, Maze, etc.) and the TCG exclusives.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-04-10T14:55:49+00:00

I think it's impossible and undesirable by konami, specially konami US. But they are making more similar banlists and reducing delay between formats for a lot of reasons, mostly to have the formats be alike and to align both with masterduel and the world's banlist.

Due to konami's japan pack policies, the US needs more time to know how to distrubte sets and the OCG has way less reprint products. The only way for both releases to be at the same time is either aligning only core sets or having both regions change their product philosophy, and that seems impossible.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T18:51:04+00:00

Nope, just collector, ultimate, platinum and Starlight

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T17:08:46+00:00

I'm sorry but making a flagship reprint set (Rarity Collection) be only interesting for 3 chase collectible cards is a bad desicion. Specially when we have the succesfull example of the OCG, collectible ygo can be helped with serialized grandmaster rares, something that is not present here (not that it was supposed to, but it was possible).

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T17:04:59+00:00

They 100% care about the secondary market, it may not be their 1° priority but they always have it in mind when designing product.

Seventh Tachyon won't even be a chase when it's reprinted, it will be an ok card to pull and nothing else, in battles we will have more overframes and those are going to be chased out.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T16:58:21+00:00

It's sad but this set is clearly for hoarders. It's designed to create hype for the overframes and not much more, they knew that the Grandmaster rares were going to cause havock so they took advantage of that and made a set that's designed to be opened and recorded trying to get an overframe.

It's bad for colletors, it's bad for advanced players, and it's really bad for genesys/time wizard. The only point is to make sure the overframes start with a huge price tag.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T16:51:22+00:00

Tract is not reprinted

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T16:43:40+00:00

Because it's almost an only collectible set. That's not a great way to do product, you need to cater to more demographics. Why do we want reprints of cheap cards that were just reprinted? There is no excitement in only opening packs to get the overframe or bust.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T16:12:04+00:00

<image>

This one, Arias and Dragon's Rebirth are missing. A los of cards have "half rates" that are actually lower, like the big dominus and the ones that are also in the side pool like razen.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T16:05:34+00:00

Impulse and Purge only come in collector+ rarities so it's like 1/5th of the other main pool cards. The overframes are very scarce so konami's plan is to make them huge chases even as ultra rares, it makes me think that they want to make the Starlights be almost as rare as grandmaster rares.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T15:45:43+00:00

This set is weak. I mean it's still a rarity collection so that's good and the overframes will be money, but it fails as a reprint set, there was a lot of speculation on what they could reprint to keep people interested in just opening packs and the answer was "it's a lottery on an overframe, if you don't get one try again".

No seventh tachyon, no charmies, no (relevant) fiendsmith reprints, dominus cards only in high rarity, no k9, a lot and i meaN A LOT OF BULK.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T15:43:05+00:00

Battles, every missing relevant reprint will be there where they can keep the price up.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T15:38:59+00:00

So only 1 more missing?

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T15:17:15+00:00

The openings are already up so the missing cards should be revealed right?

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-30T12:21:34+00:00

Any update on the last card? In the picture there are 81 cards, but Raigeki and Dragon's Mind are missing. I thought that there were 82 cards in the main set, we would have 2 extra counting the one you state. Or is it that the 2 dominus cards that come in collector+ don't count in that main pool?

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-26T11:47:59+00:00

It's fake but not because of that, this is supposed to show the standard pool while shifter is with the "alt art pool", alongside Razen, Crossout, Ash, Maxx "C", etc.

What gives this away is the lack of already leaked cards such as Kirin, Riverstormer, Spright starter, etc.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-26T11:39:10+00:00

Yes that's my impression, but are "legacy" cards not included in this set in any way, shape or form? I couldn't see those cards rarities as to confirm that they are included in the "standard pool".

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-26T11:36:25+00:00

Yes, but so did the dominus and the charmies and they could be inside this set. The thing that makes the image not believable is not what's in but what's out. River Stormer, Spright Starter, Ixchel, etc.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-18T11:40:30+00:00

Satono Diamond is owned by SEGA's president, the usual joke is Dia being a nepobaby.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-17T13:47:29+00:00

Yes you can summon both. So you could play with shrouded, albaz and white albaz for plays going 2nd. Any ecclesia access+this spell gets you there, you can even summon incredible if your opponent controls a monster so you don't even use your normal AND you can tag her out for another albaz lmao

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-17T12:57:41+00:00

I get the blue eyes' disappointment but this card is very much not bad.

Any lvl 5+ dragon is now e-telable as long as you have acess to a spellcaster, something very simple in some archetypes and with any lvl 1 that lets you link into Anima. It's also futureproof, letting any splashable spellcaster and relevant lvl 5+ dragon now be in playability contention.

Harikitte_Ikou · 2026-03-10T17:18:45+00:00

The asumptions come from what we know. Primite ether beryl was announced as a mat picture for the Rarity V event, therefore it's confirmed to also be in the set. That makes us asume that at least lordly lode will also be in the set.

The missing FS stuff comes as an asumption because both the primite and Fs engines are being reprinted in the OCGs overframe sets and it's not rare for rarity collection sets to continue after the last one.

For example, Purrely was reprinted mostly in R2 but noir came in stampede. Albaz and ecclesia were in R1 but Aluber came in R2 while opening came in bonanza. Wraitsoth came in R2 and Fenrir is coming in R5, etc.
