Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist |OT|Yes, I did summon a bunch of monsters in one turn

Dark Paladin isn't that great. It's my favourite card of all time, but I think you're overselling its power. Most decks can deal with it pretty easily using monster effects or traps. I think I go into Amulet Dragon more often, as it doesn't just insta-lose to destruction effects. It is a huge beating against decks that rely on spells, though.

Also:
Of course I´m over selling it!...how else I´m gonna charge $35 for them?
I completely agree with it being not that great.
This game includes the newer Morphtronic Smartfon right?
I haven't seen it, it must be in the Leo pack right?
I have the normal boring one too from the Starter Deck, but it's a boring common (and really awful art compared to the other two). I really want the promo Dark Paladin art, as well as the original Dark Magician art - hopefully we'll get the latter in Yugi's Legendary Decks.
I've always been a fan of Yugi's cards - the last packs I bought before I stopped playing the game for a while were Duelist Pack: Yugi (got the two Dark Paladins and one of the Dark Magician Girls from there), and the thing that got me to upgrade my deck and start playing a little again was the Dark Magician support in Dragons of Legend (bought two boxes that got me two each of The Eye of Timaeus, Amulet Dragon, and Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight, then bought the third Eye a bit later for about £10).
Can't wait for the Japan-exclusive support to be released over here!
I think so? I don't actually use it though. Maybe I'll test it more but I thought it was initially ok.

...pls?
I am so jealous
Purple-haired, purple-armoured Dark Magician > blonde, blue/red-armoured Dark Magician. Amulet Dragon is awesome for getting this right.

Ok, on the topic of the tournament
I'm thinking of starting it in one week, probably on Friday. Is this ok for everyone
I'm also thinking of doing a main event that allows everything that isn't explicitly on the game's ban list, but also a side event based on the idea of using anime decks. You can participate in either or both.
For the anime deck one, my thoughts were as follows: You can use the game's story decks aside from a few that deviate too much from the show due to lack of cards (So stuff like the dlc Yuto deck where a character uses mostly cards that they never used is a no-go). I'll try to make a list of banned story decks. Probably also going to ban that seeker deck with the three copies of each exodia part since it's really, really breaking the banlist.
I'll also allow non-story decks, as long as you share your main concept. However, these will have a few more rules: Any card you use that a character doesn't own must be approved. Extra deck cards have to be ones they actually use. Try not to use cards together if they wouldn't be in the anime, even if the character had both at some point.
Also, in all cases please make the deck avatar the character you're using if possible (If they're not in the game that's an exception). If not use the robot that's the default
If someone could help me gather a list of archetypes by anime characters that used them, that would be great.
Both are planned to be double elimination (might change depending on the amount of interest). Each match will be done in match format (Best of 3 with side decking between rounds as the game is set up for).
If you have feedback or suggestions feel free to share
I'm planning on making a separate thread for the tournament to make it easier to follow as well

Problem is Konami can't use that specific design and pose anymore
According to rumors of course
I hate how they keep changing the already great designs and keep making them worse.
In this game for example, the default Blue Eyes White Dragon art is this:
It's not terrible but it's nothing compared to the original version:
Give me the original design for Legacy of the Duelist Konami ;(
Legal issues? That's possible?
I mean, Konami made these designs right? How could they have legal issues with their own designs? 0_o That's very strange to me.
Upperdeck entertainment got into a pretty fierce legal battle with Konami, upperdeck were the ones outsourced to manage the game.
They did a pretty horrible job with translations and card distribution (for example making "Diffusive Wave Motion" into "Diffusion Wave Motion" thus making it a "Fusion" card, or making "Summoned Archfiend" into "Summoned Skull" excluding him from the "Archfiend" Archtype)
So Konami decided to manage the game themselves with the coming of the 5Ds era.
Upperdeck got mad and argued they should own the English game because of stuff they added to it,like the official hologram at the corner of the cards, censoring artworks and giving cards their names. Its believed blue eyes, red eyes and Dark Magician arts got stuck in Legal limbo.
Other theory is that Takahashi, owns the designs, and he's picky regarding having his art adapted and distributed for America. So he rarely lets the original arts to be printed again.
But this is Konami, so well probably never know
Wow. That's quite the tale.
I didn't realize Uppderdeck had any part in this. Why didn't Konami distribute and translate this game from the very beginning?
I don't know
If I had to take a guess it's because they were the first cards Upperdeck distributed in america, you know, the covers for the first three starter decks ever. So maybe something there that was enough for it to become legally cloudy.
Or Takahashi is a hack.
Take your pick
There´s a reason #FuckKonami is a thing here
If you pull that one off, I´ll send you a beer
To think, all this legal trouble for a children's card game, Amirite?
There´s a reason #FuckKonami is a thing here
That's all the explanation I needed honestly lol.
Say what!?
Oh so it's basically a walking Destiny Board.
I would love to see them making a walking Final Countdown type of card.

Bakura pack I think. I got two from a duelist challenge but I can't remember which. Alexis maybe? It was one of the first line of GX challenges.
So turns out this banish deck is pretty damn good against meta decks.
Combination of dimensional fissure, macro cosmos, and banisher of light/radiance along with d.d. survivor and monarch cards is making quite the good combination. I would have beaten this qliphort deck online if I hadn't forgotten to put stuff in my extra deck.
I imagine the results will be the same for lightsworn and shadoll decks.
This anti-meta deck isn't even complete yet, though. I still need to get more monarch cards and Bastion rarely ever gives out the good ones.
lol ok

Wow, this deck really works and it's not even close to its full potential. Giving these nekroz and qliphort players online a real hard time.
Nekroz would be even more useless against a banish deck if the monster effects mentioned that cards should be discarded to the graveyard from the hand and not just simply "discarded." those effects would not even work.

If I played my Galaxys, you'd probably own me since I wouldn't have Full Armor Dragon in the game. ergo I wouldnt be able to destroy your necrovalley and my deck is very graveyard heavy.
My only chance would be Neo Photon or Neo Tachyon dragons, which are really hard to summon withouth the graveyard
Winged dragon of Ra sphere mode card! Woah just looked it up!
Why isn't this card in the game!?
Too new,
That card really helps Ra, before that Ra was pretty much "If you summon this card, you lose the duel"
You have no idea how jelly I am. I especially want Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight.Also:
I hope they print this in English. It looks amazing.
They should use this new GOAT artwork
Been playing some of the archetypes that were locked behind DLC, mainly the Superheavy Samurai and Melodious. Don't like the Superheavy Samurais that much, but I'm really liking how Melodious deck plays out. Maybe I'm drawn to decks that makes duels super frustrating for your opponent lol.
Are you sure? This card exists:
It was reprinted as late as October 2013 (note the new style card border that was introduced in the Zexal era).
Japan also hasn't had reprints of the original artwork until the 20th Anniversary products earlier this year (Duelist Road, The Rarity Collection, and Memories of the Duel King). I don't think it's impossible we'll get the original Dark Magician art reprinted soon.
EDIT: Also here's the rest of my Dark Magician stuff I left out yesterday:

Is not that Konami can't reprint them.
Its that its a lot of problems and not worth doing it regularly.
That's the only OG Blue Eyes reprint, but look at how many other Kaiba products were released after that and not a single one has the original artwork.

Weren't they added in clash of rebellions? That pack isn't in the game
Correct, no Star Wars of Oz for this game
Kozmos would have been great for the banish deck. Oh well. Maybe I can use ritual beasts instead but they're wind and I want to focus on light/dark.
Also, I'm seeing myself buying more and more DLC. I originally bought the game thinking every card could be unlocked through grinding but now I need to buy whole packs of DLC just to get one card out from them. :/
Konami raking in that cash.
Edit: Also, I can confirm you have to quit the game and restart to make any purchased DLC available for use in decks (if you buy dlc in-game). It's happened twice now.

question, do we have a yugioh community thread?
IntelliHeath
As in "Heathcliff"
Knowing Konami, they probably wouldn't do it. Are they going to update the game with new expansions through downloadable contents?

sweet, thanks!
Adding two new people to the ban list. Both used an elemental hero deck. I wonder why people with elemental hero decks are often the ones rage quitting? Is that deck prominent among little kids?
Updated PSN ban list:
Imsorry313
lilskimiles
I would have a lot more names here if I kept track each time someone ragequit. It's annoying because I'm trying to accumulate duel points to buy more booster packs and I don't think I get anything if the person just up and leaves.

Have you considered using Earthbound Immortal cards? They're level 10 and require field spells. Would go perfect with Egyptian god cards.
Mound of the Bound Creator
Mausoleum of the Emperor
Magical Citadel of Endymion
Once you have an Earthbound monster, a Mound of the Bound Creator, and a Skill Drain on the field, you will pretty much win the duel unless your opponent has a card like mystical space typhoon or dust tornado.
Besides ra's disciple, these may or may not also be helpful:
The agent of creation + 3 mystical shine balls
Giant germ
Earthbounds are great, but then they'd become the central focus of the deck, the idea is to summon an Egyptian god and have him swag over my opponent
Mound is great, but I think Mausoleum doesn't work on Egyptian gods as they have a summon condition
The earthbound gods are flipping boss as EMT can tell you if he's already watching the Dark Signer arc
But Id rather do the anime route with them and Play Aslla Piscu with
Fortune Ladies

Ah, I see.
Would March of the Monarchs help out Egyptian gods or is that just repetitive because you already have Mound of the Bound Creator?
Just wondering since I'm using monarchs right now.
Edit: Also, wanted to ask if effect veiler would work on apoqilphort towers?
Edit 2: Nevermind. Found out, effect veiler is useless against apoqliphort towers. lol.
You either beast over towers by battle, or negate his summon.
nothing else. It is the real god card we
I mean if this card was available for TCG, qliphorts would kind of become useless against the monarch deck and it would easily get rid of towers through battle thanks to an 800 atk power boost. Just put in terraforming and chances of drawing the card become significantly greater.
Also, if this card is on the field before towers gets summoned, is towers still able to use its effect?
