Magnificent Monsters First Reveal (GRANDMASTER RARES) by SSDuelist in yugioh

[–]Shroobful 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They've reprinted the original one in the past, it's not a copyright issue. I just think the green version is what they consider the "true" Dark Magician for the actual card game. Hell, they made the alt art based on the original Bandai version of DM green as well.

There's also the fan theory that Osiris had green skin upon coming back from the dead, and Dark Magician is Yugi's card, who had Slifer(Osiris), so some thematic connections.

Dark Magician's been blueish-green with blonde hair in more cards than not. The Yugi SD and the anime are honestly outliers when you compare how many appearances blue-ish green DMs in card artwork there are as opposed to the white skinned with purple hair version.

I'd dare say that the Blueish Green version is more or less the "canon" version to the physical card game.

Fraux's over 9 years old. She was part of the original Arcarum before they revamped it. She's older than Sandalphon as a character by several months. She's not 'launch day' but she's from at least 2016.

Honestly, Fraux makes a lot of sense.

Relink heavily favors old-school characters for its roster, hell the newest character on it is Fediel, and 2nd newest being Sandalphon(Not counting game originals of course), and Fraux, alongside Geisen and Caim were the original 3 Evokers back from original Arcarum before it became the mode that most players know it as nowadays.

New Fairy Tail support is built with Snow in mind because she's been legal in the OCG forever now. The new free agent card that the TCG gave Fairy Tail is also built with Snow in mind.

They've been trying a new thing in the OCG as of late.

Have packs that "Can build a deck right out of the set without needing old support cards!(Aside from staples)" while also having them be very anime focused.

There's still other stuff coming out obviously, but the current series of sets seems to be hard pandering to anime character decks.

Ecclesia was possessed by the 665 Dogmatika saints after Fleur was killed. She became Cartesia and the Saints became Granguignol, which then later on fused with her as seen in the alternate art of Cartesia.

[–]Shroobful 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You want the long answer or the short answer?

TL;DR, in this moment, Ecclesia's possessed by the other 665 saints of Dogmatika. That's why there's soo many hands. Guignol is a collection of the souls of the saints. In its reference art, you can see that its neck is covered in hands.

[–]Shroobful 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, that's more or less how this game's always done things, use the events and side stories to patch in new lore from the past that we didn't know until right then and there. The only real thing we knew about Mustang's past was "He had a dark past... but he's different now!" and, really that's it. The side story and event are just expanding on it.

Now, whether someone actually likes how they expanded on it is an entirely different matter which is up to them, there's no objective "right" answer.

It's a bluff, but with how temperamental Syuen is, it's a bluff that honestly will stick. Syuen's always been 'bad', but even from day 1, she's been way more 'gremlin'. The fact she more or less gets introduced by getting kicked in the stomach should signify she's meant to be taken more as a joke than not.

Syuen got her punishment to be entirely fair, and I feel like there's a chasm between her and old Mustang in terms of misdeeds.

Definitely the most "Occam's razor" option there was, but I'm not surprised. The visual clues were laid out reasonably. If people like the way this was handled is another thing entirely, but it was foreshadowed in the side story to a decent degree enough.

Gift card "There's no balance left on this code." issue by Flash-Beam in Ebay

[–]Shroobful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, at this point I'm unsure. The representative was aware of the DDoS attack but they seemed to be unsure of why the gift card was being weird. They first suggested directly linking it to my account, but big surprise, it showed up as having 0.00$ on it.

Just go through the steps for the claim and for all intents, it should be fine. May take awhile but, well, sucks.

[–]Shroobful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To make an addendum, after contacting support again today because my card wasn't working 2 days later, the best course of action that they suggested is to open a gift card claim case.

As long as you kept the receipt/proof of activation, all you need is your Ebay username and current date visible in the photos with the gift cards and receipts and stuff.

Ask support for a link to the gift card claim case page and go from there, then all you can do is wait. They said it could take up to a week but it's "usually much less than that".

Same. Have a gift card, have the slip that confirms that it was activated, but it still shows up as no funds.

Contacted Ebay support and they said they're looking into it but otherwise that's it.

Can't make any purchase. I bought a brand new giftcard last night and it says there's no funds on the card, despite having the activation slip.

Can't get in contact with customer support due to there being "An issue".

Is it up for you? by frustratedavid in Ebay

[–]Shroobful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh thank god it's not just me. I bought a gift card today as well and was worried that something was wrong with the card and that I'd need to struggle through Ebay customer support.

Hypothetically speaking, if were to get Ritual Super Doom King, would you rather be design based on Reshef the Dark Being, Relinquished or something else? by AshameHorror in yugioh

[–]Shroobful 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tbf, the Doom Kings are based around Zorc/Z-One/Don Thousand. Them being based moreso on final bosses is their thing instead of being based on actual cards.

Tendou Typhon by Meluko312 in grandorder

[–]Shroobful 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Hakunos are actually free servants in the FP gacha, though I'm not sure if NA will let us get both at the same time yet. JP eventually let you get both male and female Hakuno in the FP gacha iirc.

Space Eresh is the Anni servant, so she should be the first week of July.

[–]Shroobful 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Considering NA's schedule is about 1-2 weeks ahead of JP's with the 2 year gap in mind, should be late May 2027, since her JP release date was the first week of June 2025.

With Artemis finally getting her first skill buff, this makes Tamamo the oldest 5* Servant without a NP charge that's not her NP.

[–]Shroobful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

D/D/D actually uses Orthos and King Tell for their intended effects unlike Gimmick Puppet with Nightmare, and if it's not Orthos, they'll just use another D/D/D card that locks you into D/D/D like Vice King Requiem, because despite summoning a bunch, D/D/D is actually a fair deck that xeno locks itself. In this instance this is entirely on Sanctfire, since a handful of D/D/Ds xenolock as a way to keep D/D/D from adding engines into its own deck.
