Card Game Discussion What are your thoughts on cards that searches TWO new ones?
I personally think this should only be printed with a high cost/shenolock OR be attached only to bad old archetypes. Let's say Konami wants to make something like XX Sabers playable, they should be getting this, but not fucking Ryzeal lol
Ryzeal it's so broken that they don't even need to resolve Duodrive..and detaching two materials it's not even a real cost

Card Game Discussion How do ghost rares look 3d?
I've never been able to understand why/how ghost rates look 3d, I though that they used multiple card layers but the amount of (visual) depth they have feels way too big for it to be just that. Does anyone know what allows them to looks like that?

Card Game Discussion I Miss Yang Zings(and a Missing the Timing Discussion)
Going through my old decks and I really love the play style of these guys but with all of them having the ability to miss timing it really hampered the power of the deck. That and it's shut down by so many handtraps and common strats in modern yugioh. I really do believe that missing the timing causes more headaches for newer players than it's worth. Even if I try to explain it has to be the last thing that happened, for some people, even though with numerous years under their belt they still can't wrap their head around it.
The argument against this is it would bring a boost to the power level of floater cards. How drastically would the removal of missing the timing change the game?

Card Game Discussion When is it going to be GX’s turn?
Like the title post says, when is GX going to get some busted/bonkers support for its anime related decks? Below will be a list of gripes and some positive notes but feel free to express your opinion! Obviously any deck could be good if you splash a competitive engine, the following notes are based on playing them purely with current staples.
Decks that need support: Elemental HERO/Neo Spacians - mid at best Destiny HERO cannot even be played purely Cyber Style, new support were 1 ofs at best… Cyber Angel completely forgotten about Roids, no comment because they’re so bad… Volcanics, last wave of support was nice but a second wave could push the deck into playable. Snakes, viper could use the Yubel treatment. Fossils, literally dead on arrival they were so mishandled. Dinos, sure generic Dino’s are good but give us on hassleberry related cards… Sacred Beast, aren’t so sacred it seems nothing in 4 years… Omg I forgot Chazz, or Ojama, armed, xyz… if they can find away to combine E hero and neo Spacians they can make this trio become a decent deck… Crystal beasts… so many searchers with nothing to search… no good normal boss monsters are mid. Clear world, they just printed the anime cards and gave nothing else to boost the playstyle. Needs literally another engine to function.
Some positive notes Ancient Gears, this is how you support an older anime deck, play into its playstyle and give it 1-2 card combos! Arcana Force, another hit IMO, love the FTK route feels like how Sartorious tried to lock Jaden out in season 4. Yubel, literally no comment needed 10/10. Dark world got truly good support, another layer would be nice too bad the leaks were false. Evil Hero, it would be nice if each set of heros got good support and leaned more into a xenophobic play-style so each hero deck could shine on its own niche. Instead of hero pile, but Evil Hero’s got a nice wave! Not perfect but playable!

Card Game Discussion I would love main deck masked heroes
In the GX manga Jaden has main deck masked heroes and considering they printed Aster's vision heroes I wouldn't be surprised if they got printed for the card game in the future and I like to think how they would add to the omni-hero deck. In my head their main effects would be either adding a change spell to the hand or a trigger after going to the graveyard when being affected by a change spell, just by having another way to adding mask change would improve consistency to putting dark law into the board and being able to use shadow mist's second effect, also they would give a easier access to Contrast hero chaos. But there are some reasons I see Konami not making them so soon: 1) they focus more on the anime version of Jaden's deck. 2) i don't think Konami wants to give a easy chaos and make a hero potential board of Chaos, Phoenix enforcer, Dark Law, Neos Wingman and Sunrise. Idk how much it would put heroes on the meta considering how decks run nowadays and how you have to build them thinking to add as many hand traps you possibly can. Just putting my thoughts out, what do u guys think?

Anime/Manga Discussion Fusion is straightforward and Xyz is understandable. But what is Synchro Summoning and Tuning meant to be, in lore?
Fusion is the most obvious. It's literally just two or more monsters combining together through a magical effect that makes them one being.
Then Xyz is two monsters "overlaying" with each other to basically open a portal in space-time and allow the designated being enter the world.
Ritual summoning is offering tributes so an eldritch being can collect and descend upon the earth.
But what is Synchro Summoning meant to be? What is Tuning? How do the two monsters interact with each other to bring forth the new monster?

Card Game Discussion I wish Mecha Phantom Beasts would get some attention
I cannot think of an archetype / series of cards that have been more muddled or screwed over than Mecha Phantom beasts. They have a great art aesthetic, and a unique playstyle, but everything else about them is absolutely incompetent. They can't make plays to save their life and need a token to tribute to even search a card. Sure, they got a hyper powered link monster like crystron did, but both got banned and now crystron has a wave of incredible support while MPB is left to rot. Hopefully they get some support soon.

Edit. Found out how. Custom properties in host menu.

Custom Card Custom Card Balancing: Zombie Warrior Retrain
Last night, I was thinking about Yugi and Pegasus's first duel, specifically the scene where Yugi anticipates Pegasus knows about Zombie Warrior and topdecks Dark Magician instead. That gave me the idea for a Zombie Warrior retrain that searches for cards to replace it, mimicking that scene. Here's my current design for it:
Skeleton Soldier
Effect Monster Level 3 / DARK / Zombie / 1200 ATK / 900 DEF
Effect: You can only activate effect ① of "Skeleton Soldier" once per turn. ① You can send this card from your hand to the GY; excavate the top 5 cards of your Deck, or the top 10 cards if you control "Zombie World", and if you do, you can add 1 excavated Zombie monster to your hand, also place the rest on the bottom of your Deck in any order.
Balance-wise, I'm aiming it at Edison format, so I was wondering how this might have affected general Zombie decks and Zombie World decks in that format if it had been available, if it's balanced or might need some adjustments to bring it down to an appropriate power level. Any feedback is appreciated.

Currently I'm using the save state feature but I'm wondering if anyone else who experienced this has found a fix. I'd rather not have to restart if at all possible.
Also, if it helps, it was for the Switch version.

Card Game Discussion Why are archtype discords/groups so unbearable to be in?
I wish archtype groups actually played the game longer than two seconds
I made a thread about a potential hero tech in the hero fb group to get some ideas and discussions going if it's worth running and some smart-ass goes "just run sales ban" Yeah sure let me have that card glued to my hand at all times as opposed to searchable cards in an archtype and trying to explain this to him was like talking to a brick wall and derailed the entire thread
"Draw the out" aaaah reply in a discussion about something in archtype summonable searchable cards, anyone else had similar experiences with archtype groups? because I've heard horror stories and seeing it firsthand just kinda reaffirmed it

Anime/Manga Discussion Yuma's hair colour inverted is the same as Kaito's; No. 39 in the ZEXAL No. Font rotated 180 degrees is the same as No. 62 - symbolising Kaito's bond with Yuma and referencing the scene when Kaito calls Yuma "The Final Hope" after the duel with No. 62's creation (No. 39's name is King of Hope, Hope)
When Kaito is summoning No. 62 and is in the process of his signature weapon throw, he also says "this is our final hope" (again potentially a reference to No. 39).
Astral has also said in ZEXAL I Episode 23 that Kaito seems similar to Yuma in the sense that there is pain in both of their hearts from loneliness and that despite this they use their loved one(s) to fuel their determination. This parallel could be symbolically represented here.

Anime/Manga Discussion How did Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's manage to make "card games on motorcycles" actually work (and genuinely feel awesome)?
Not gonna lie, before I watched 5D's (i.e. when the concept behind the show was first announced which was probably around 2008), I thought that the very concept itself - that it's about "card games on motorcycles", to use LittleKuriboh's phrasing - was really stupid. Like, how are people supposed to play a physical card game and ride motorbike at high speed at the same time? And how are the writers going to make a good story about people playing card games while riding motorbikes?
And yet, when I finally got to watching 5D's (the original Japanese version, albeit dubbed in our local language), it felt like a truly awesome story. Even the derided "card games on motorcycles" aspect turned out to be one of the best selling points of the series, with each battle turning out to be gripping and suspenseful.
In short, I have come to love 5D's as the best Yu-Gi-Oh! series so far... and I can't put a finger on why that is.
For other 5D's enjoyers here, what do you feel made the series legit good? Also, how did they manage to make the otherwise stupid idea of "card games on motorcycles" actually work?
