Price Tag

This time, let's not talk about cards, rather, let's talk about money stuffs and bulls.

As we all know, YGO is a very expensive vice and hobby to maintain due to the price of very powerful, rare, and limited printed cards such as the promos and also TGU and also expensive tier decks, such as Mermails, Magicals, and of course the Incarante Dragons.

Let's look at some of the reasons why YGO is expensive:

Release the Kraken!!!!

No, we're not going to release the Kraken, rather we're gonna release the almighty king of Atlantis, the Atlantean Dragon King Poseidra.

With the release of LTGY, Atlantean Emperor Tridon was released giving Poseidra light and hope to come out of people's binders and see the light of day. I admit I am one of those people who were a Poseidra fan and tried everything to make it work, and now I got my wish. Thank you Konami for bringing us this cute serpent.

Hello March Goodbye Windups

Wooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh! It's March, I'm sorry for the late greeting, it's because I've been caught up in this online game I'm playing.

So what does the new format have for us except for the lost of Windups. So far, there are 4 decks that are above all else or somewhat stirring up the pressure on the minds of many duelist.

  • Flaming Stars
  • Verz
  • Magicals
  • Mermails
Those 4 are mainly the powerforce of the current YGO(atleast in my perspective). Three of them have already shown their capabilities why they are a force to be reckoned with and the other one is gathering interests from a lot of players because of its new gotten spell support.

Card of The Month: Dimensional Fissure

Sorry it's a bit late but here it is anyway, our 3rd CoTW, Dimensional Fissure.


Now, why Dimensional Fissure? That's because my Dark World hates it so much. But why Dimensional Fissure instead of Macro Cosmos? I'll explain that later, but first let's look at the card.

Dimensional Fissure
Spell / Continuous
"Any monster sent to the Graveyard is banished instead."

Tournament Report: 13/02/23

I just returned to full thinking capabilities and here to write what happened to me yesterday at the Philippines' Asian Qualifier. It was a Swiss Round of 7 so yeah, that is pretty long. I decided to use my Dark World Deck instead of going for my Heroic or Heraldry Beast Deck (I'm pretty much into building builds for under appreciated decks), but this time, I didn't main my Sillva and used Tragodeia in its place.

Preparation to Battle

I am now ready for Philippines' Qualifiers this coming Saturday and I'm still picking a deck to use in the tournament. I don't know if I'm going to go with my usual Dark World or I'm just gonna go and have fun and look at my opponents' faces when they learn that I'm using a Heroic Deck.

Anyway, here are the decks I'm expecting to see in the tournament:

Mermail ~ Why Mermail? Because there are actually people who completed this damn to hell expensive         deck and I know they are going to flaunt it. Another reason is because I'm going to lend my Armored Kappa for a BlackShip. Also, in  my estimate, there are only at most 4 people who owns an Armored Kappa in the Philippines (I'm one of them :D)

Mainsprings ~ Because I know for sure one of the players will use his Wind-Up before March.

Gadgets ~ This is our country's prostitute deck. It is cheap but strong. Great for those who are low on budget.

Machiners ~ Because Gadget exists.

Geargia ~ Because my brother is there and he's been practicing Geargia now that he has GeargiaGear.

Fire Kings ~ I know one of the duelist in our country has a Yaksha and I saw him use it in weekly tournaments so I'm still preparing.

Flame Stars ~ It's the current trend so what more can I say. And my youngest brother is going to use it now that we are among those who has completed the deck with it's promo cards.

Lightlords ~ Because for some unknown reason there is always a lucky Lightlord player that always gets on top.

Dark World ~ Not because I'm there, it's because there are actually a lot of Dark World players out there.

Six Warmen ~ Because everytime I look at people's deck checks, I see a samurai player.

I'm not expecting PBPs and Harpie yet. PBPs doesn't have a standard build yet and people are still looking for Harpie Dancer.

Card of the Month: Sangan

I bet everyone was surprised by the March Ban List due to it not hitting much and being a short one at that. I know we were all expecting to see Konami splash acid on Wind-ups' retarded face and yes, we had our wish everyone so congratulations!!! No more retard as fug Wind-ups.

Now, we know that Wind-ups were the only one hit in this ban list by completely banning Zenmighty and limiting WU Magician, but it also killed one of the most expensive engine in the game, the TGU + Sangan engine. So, with the banning of Sangan for the March format, what will happen now that one the greatest and abused searcher is gone and is now back in the arms of his beloved spouse(Witch of the Black Forest) in the Ban Zone of YGO.

For this week, our Card of the Week is none other than the great Sangan


Sangan
DARK / Fiend / Level 3 / 1000/600
"When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard: Add 1 monster with 1500 or less ATK from your Deck to your hand."
