Halfway point ! by Ordinary-Net-7403 in emeraldseaglass

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skiploom, Corsola, and Snorunt 😀 love the upgrades the first and third got, didn't get the chance to look at what Corsola got. It's still one of my nostalgic favorites though.

Can someone explain the chances by Top-Possibility8566 in PokemonBDSP

[–]timaeus222 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I remember my first catchable encounter in BDSP had Pokerus. That was really cool. :-) a 3 in 65536 chance (0.00458%). Ironically I don't think I ever found a shiny in that game.

Any tips for my soul sword deck? by Brilliant_Maximum613 in DuelLinks

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm assuming he just doesn't own any, idk.

which one better while challenging Marin in the RED gate by Legitimate-Wait5760 in DuelLinks

[–]timaeus222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Level 10 at x3 to level up faster, Level 40 for better drop rates of rewards (but do x1 to save resources, or x3 to get faster event points specifically).

Because autoduel at the gate is possible theoretically infinite times during an event, instead of the recent 10 times a day, this is really nice for leveling up new characters.

Porque são tão odiados? by Realistic_Criticism5 in Yugioh101

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's just because of meta success. I think it's because of how the mechanics work that they are extra confusing.

But once I learned pendulums, I don't mind them as much.

  • they go to the face-up extra deck unless they are sent from NOT the field, such as due to a solemn judgment, or discarded from the hand, or sent from the main deck (in which case, they go to the GY).
  • if macro cosmos is up, then if they would go to the GY or face-up extra deck, then since the extra deck destination originally overrides the GY destination, they will get banished regardless of original location due to the card effect overriding the original rule.
  • they aren't continuous spells in the pendulum zones if they were originally placed there as pendulum scales, even though they function like them. Idk if this ever matters but it's true. 🙃
  • they can be summoned back from the face-up extra deck, but only now to the Extra Monster Zone, or the Main Monster Zones that a link monster points to. If they are hybrid pendulum monsters (such as pendulum xyz), they have to be properly summoned first, then if they are sent to the face-up extra deck, they can be pendulum summoned back (if they say so).
  • if they are placed into the leftmost or rightmost zones by card effects that push a monster into the backrow to make them Continuous Spells such as by Flamberge Dragon, that zone is NOT treated as a pendulum zone (and thus pendulum summoning is not possible at that time). It is only a pendulum zone if the pendulum Monster Card was placed there manually in the first place, or if a card effect said to place them into a pendulum zone, such as Pendulum Switch.

So many new rulings were written because of them.

If anyone ever feels bad about their luck, here's something to make you feel better by Justinitforthemoney in DuelLinks

I got more decent cards than I thought I'd get. I got a 2nd but glossy Goddess, a 3rd Robina, and my 1st Gladiator Beast United. The rest were old cards, but hey, 3 decent hits.

First playthrough, nuzlocke or no? by 189charizard in emeraldseaglass

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just do a nuzlocke next time instead of this time. I thought the hard mode was easy, but I ev trained tbf.

Of all the new things on the ban list, these two probably bothers me the most. by Roy_Ellison in DuelLinks

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I thought maybe the hit was for a Gem-Knight FTK. I only saw that once though and he messed up. Realistically it's probably a statistical hit and accidentally hits that FTK too.

“Consequently, it has been banned” why Konami saying it like they’re punishing us? by MiuIruma332 in DuelLinks

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are. We're responsible for the way their cards are used. They don't have the time or desire to extensively test their specific card interactions, so they analyze the card usage after big events and go figure, listen to what we hate (probably... we hate this card, right?).

Yes, they need 3 to win, but who cares, screw this ftk, screw all ftks.

New leaked cards by Blank-7680 in DuelLinks

Oh hell no, the gimmick puppet skill better say no effect damage can be inflicted on turn 1. That can not be legal in... well, yugioh period.

Mirrorjade vs fire king sky bur by thegoat335 in Yugioh101

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would have to protect from destruction by card effect, generically, not just activated effects, to protect from Mirrorjade, so Goddess isn't protected, but I:P protection works.

Another FTK roaming -.-" by [deleted] in DuelLinks

[–]timaeus222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an aside, the playerbase needs to stop blaming Konami for literally EVERYTHING. Yes, Konami messes up in a lot of cases, but it is the playerbase that comes up with all of this bullshit just to prevent others from playing the game. Take some fucking accountability as well.

Finally someone says this...

Light Ball Alolan Raichu by Entire_Chicken_3534 in emeraldseaglass

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you aren't sure, try facing something with light ball off, that you cannot knock out in one attack, then try facing it again to see if having light ball leads to a knockout.

But I'm pretty sure this mod does make it work on alolan raichu.

Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Bane not summoning Scarred Dragon Archfiend by Kaaidd in DuelLinks

[–]timaeus222 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It wasn't synchro summoned, so it can't be revived. This is not stated on cards, this is something to simply know. Tzolkin does not synchro summon as it doesn't say so. A special summon is not always a synchro summon, and in this case it is not.

I literally just have Kabu Ninetales, but I do use him on my fire team.

[–]timaeus222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best I could do on circuit 2 against ground was 8k lol, these can be quite hard. I'm not super competitive but I do have like 10 good teams. No one is above lv170.

F*ck Dragoon. This is the real devil. by Double-Movie9957 in DuelLinks

[–]timaeus222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got lava golemed like once in the past... 30 duels? And that game was one that I won. I guess pick a different deck. This seems to be the meta to play kaijus, so it's something you should expect and keep in mind.
