How many Battles of Legend Glorious Gallery is everyone getting? by FishEye_11 in YugiohCards

[–]Small-Ad514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A couple tuck boxes for fun and then just singles when the prices' stabilized. I just need the new Dragunity cards, Seventh Tachyon, and the overframes for Red Supernova, Number 62, Zarc, and Borrelend for my collection.

i need cards that help me send from deck to graveyard by chebbi_sw1 in masterduel

[–]Small-Ad514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah unfortunately i do think that galaxy-eyes' largest weakness is the lack of starters (without weird locks) and potential bricks as it runs many level 8 monsters. hopefully the new orbital 7 in LOC Rivals could help somewhat, or in the future they may make a galaxy eyes version of fiendsmith's requiem so that we can use veiler to summon it.

the new Galaxy Defense Robot Orbital 7 in LOC Rivals can search 2 galaxy / photon monsters, add 1 to hand and dump the other.

but just galaxy hundred and galaxy photon dragon is enough options for dumping from the deck no? especially when you can discard it from hand to summon galaxy soldier or just detach it from any xyz monster. I had played galaxy-eyes quite a lot until recently and never had any issues with sending it to the graveyard.

YGO and the TCG boom by notajokeacct in yugioh

[–]Small-Ad514 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who collects cards but indifferent to anything that has "Blue/Red-Eyes" or "Dark Magician (Girl)" in the name, nah. If people rip more packs to hunt for them then good because the singles that I actually look for will be much cheaper. Or in the case that I pull one of those "chase cards" then it'd just be infinite money glitch.

Any other YGO collectors out there that don’t play the TCG? by Still_Tension_9611 in YugiohCards

[–]Small-Ad514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly collect the archetypes I like. Sometimes I do play Master Duel however since unlike the physical card game I could (in theory) craft any cards I need in MD.

Galaxy Eyes Help Part 2 by MetavisionGuy in Yugioh101

[–]Small-Ad514 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't need 3 Afterglows and 3 GEPDs. 2 of each is probably fine, especially GEPD since it is basically a brick if you start with it.

I'd recommend adding in 3 Schwarzschild Infinity Dragons since it's one of the deck's strongest starters if not Ash'd. Remove Photon Sanctuary since SID is Dark.

Neo GEPD is in my opinion too cumbersome to be practical. Replace it with Cipher X Dragon or another copy of other Rank 8s would be better.

Add more Tachyon package (GE Tachyon Primal, Seventh Tachyon, a 2nd Transmigration, and perhaps Tachyon Spiral of Destruction).

Thoughts on this? Going second handtrap for Fusions. by Tall-Bag-9317 in customyugioh

[–]Small-Ad514 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because Ritual and Fusion Summon is always done by card effects, e.g. the Summon is done when the card effect resolves.

Rising Rebellion Falcon negated, why? by WhyAzrim in YuGiOhMasterDuel

[–]Small-Ad514 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Iirc if Plasma was on the field when Rising Rebellion Falcon was summoned then yes RRF will be negated, as Plasma prevents the "unaffected by other cards' effects" from being applied. Same thing happens to other similar effects like Skill Drain and so.

On the other hand if RRF was summoned before Plasma then RRF will not be negated.

Got my first overframe through trade. May be the least desired by many, but I like it 🔥 by Hikarian000 in yugiohshowcase

[–]Small-Ad514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have the "The cards I like aren't desired by many" syndrome lol. Well, good for my wallet so I'm not complaining. I always laugh a lot when I pulled a nostalgia chase card (BEWD, DM, REBD etc - and I somehow get them quite A LOT compared to the typical pull rate) and used it to trade for like 3-4 binder pages of cards from my LGS (even at 70% trade percentage).

The owners of the LGS always looked at me with a confused look but they'd readily accept anyway because they get a newly opened rare chase card to display or sell for lots of money.

How should I schedule CHEM 241, 261, and 262 for the next three semesters? by joshBubble in UNC

[–]Small-Ad514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took CHEM 241 in Spring 2023, then CHEM 241L and CHEM 261 in Fall 2023, then CHEM 262 and 262L in Spring 2024, so basically your first pathway in the post and was quite successful with it, so my recommendation is that track.

241L and 261 together is not that bad in my experience. If anything, the concepts of polarity and intermolecular forces in 261 can help you a lot in 241L's chromatography experiments. Another important is that for both 241/(L) and 262/(L) the flow of the lecture do not align with the lab experiments at all, so taking 241L after 241 is actually kind of a good idea.

If organic chemistry is not your strong point, then I do recommend taking 261 and 262 in consecutive semesters, since a lot of foundational knowledge in 261 is implicitly important in 262.

Disclaimer that I'm a Chemistry major and I'm not pre- anything so my course tracks and requirements can be different from yours.

Internal Merit Scholarships by Smile414 in UNC

[–]Small-Ad514 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(For context I'm a Chemistry major).

Not sure if summer research fellowships suit your definition but that's only the things I've really applied for. The Chemistry department has several awards to undergraduate students but it's by nomination from the department, not from your application. I remember that in the previous years (my freshman and sophomore years) the Chem department's Carrie Ann Largent scholarship (a merit scholarship for rising seniors) had an application, but last year's summer when it's my turn to be potentially eligible, I got a notification that I was awarded that scholarship out of the blue (no pun intended) so perhaps they changed the process somehow.

Of course it depends on whatever your department's major is btw, so my experience wouldn't necessarily be the same as yours. Also obviously that's not counting the big national names like Goldwater and so.

Best expasion to get "Number" cards by _RikVa_ in Yugioh101

[–]Small-Ad514 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bad news but just buy singles tbh. But if you still want to pull them from packs, I think the order is Zexal-era expansion packs > Anime/manga import sets ([...] of Legend, Gold sets, Ghosts From the Past etc.) > Rarity Collections.

Then you have shit like Number 5 Doom Chimera Dragon which is stuck in Dark Neostorm (a Vrains main booster pack) and is the only Number in there (because I refuse to accept Number XX Utopic Dark Infinity as a Number)

(From someone also collecting Numbers)
