In this series we're going to be looking over some lesser-known cards that would probably never appear in one of my other types of videos, because they either aren't very good or are not bad enough, to take a ranking in a top 10, or to be talked about specifically for its own merits. And with over 10,000 cards in the game, there's quite honestly a lot to talk about.

Anime big boss monsters have a hidden effect where: “If your opponent tries to remove this card by an other means except crashing into it with their own big boss monster, either add the perfect counter card to your hand from anywhere, or give this card a new effect which makes it immune.”

@Divine_Serpent_Geh Жыл бұрын

To be honest I can’t imagine Geh had 0 protection. His cards were so broken that it must have had something. It’s simply never allowed to reveal this since Yugi didn’t play any card that demonstrated this. For all we know, it was at least unaffected by other monsters effects (similar to Egyptian Gods) etc. Or a built-it Orichalcos Tritos effect.

The problem was, in the anime, Geh (or Cornelius, as I love calling him) required all of these steps to be summoned, due to its association with Oriachalcos but was blessed with virtual immunity, while in the TCG/OCG, it's a generic Reptile boss monster. Unfortunately, as its a generic Reptile boss monster (and there's a ton of them, ironically), it suffers from an extreme lack of support beyond "stupid stats", which it didn't have to worry about in the anime.

Another thing about Sophia, is that the monsters required for it's summon can be ANYWHERE on the field, so, if your opponent plays different types of monsters, Sophia could have some potential

@mechafenix9348 Жыл бұрын

If you ask me, if you go second, Sophia can be quite the broken card. Not only you can use one of your opponent's monsters (as long as they aren't link or main deck monsters) to summon her. But your opponent also can't do a single thing to negate her special summon or the activation of her effect. And once she hits the field, she banishes everything in both players hands, fields and graveyards. At that point it ultimately depends on what each player draws but at least you broke their board and ended up with a high attack monster on the field. Honestly, I might consider to pick Sophia as a side deck option instead of Nibiru for the lols xD

Bird of Paradise Lost is another Level 8 Tuner but it actually has a good Change of Heart effect by discarding another Tuner, then it gains ATK for every Tuner in the grave so the cost also helps it.

I think Tierra Source of Destruction is also heavily related to the Shaddols, since it was awakened by El Shaddol Construct during their war against the world tree.

Divine Serpent Geh: requires the tribute of millions of souls harvested throughout time and all your lifepoints. It sports the insane feat of having an attack power of infinity Also Geh: loses to book of moon

@Divine_Serpent_Geh Жыл бұрын

I’d say it’s implied that the Divine Serpent is immune to almost anything. It’s not explicitly shown, but it can’t be THAT easy to deal with. After all, Geh seems to be Dartz’s version of a God Card. It’s name in the original JP is translated as “Serpent God Geh”. If Geh could be destroyed that easily, why didn’t Yami just use Critius’s effect again, and bring back a “Mirror Force” or “Trap Hole”? My guess, is Dartz would’ve laughed and said something along the lines of: “Haha, Geh is invincible. You can’t defeat him with a simple magic card”.

@ryandennison8754 Жыл бұрын

The 4th (3rd?) effect of Geh is interesting because it uses the effect of Martyr’s Curse, a trap card that was used earlier on in the duel that it appeared in, at least the part where it negates a monster’s effect that it battles.

@Divine_Serpent_Geh Жыл бұрын

Yes, I guess that is the only thing that carried over from one of Dartz’s cards. I still think they should’ve made him into a ridiculous win condition, if they didn’t want to give him infinite ATK. Simply to keep the novelty of Geh’s outlandishness. Is it competitive? No. It’s fun. Besides… summoning him is so goddamn hard anyway, they should’ve made it where you immediately win the duel when he is summoned or when he attacks.

Trivia In the movie theinen did increase its attack by all the attacks of monsters in the graveyard . All the nerf kinda make sense when you all know that the 2 other sphynx could summon themselves directly from the deck if pyramid of light was on the field. Also for those who didn't see the movie, the back of theinen's head is actually teleia sphynx's face, shame the card doesn't show that

Theinen was absolute bitch in Playground Yu-Gi-Oh. A lot of kids at my school had really powerful monsters but lacked the ability to summon them, or knew the stats and effects of Fusions that they didn't have the actual card for (this was in the post-Shining Dragon release, pre-Ultimate Dragon release days), or had all the parts needed _except_ Polymerisation. As a result, people played... fast and loose with summoning conditions. And let me tell you, 3500 and the ability to become 6500 for a turn on what half the playground treated as a regular-ass two-tribute? It was scary. Catching the 6500 attack on a Draining Shield and retaliating with a BEWD + Axe of Despair was probably my proudest moment.

There is a way to summon Sophia pretty easily with the new Gishki Support. All you need is Grim and Ready Fusion/Instant Fusion with Theseus. The Endbord is White Aura Monoceros, Gigantic Spright or something like Herald of Pure Light, Theseus and Nereimanas. But you can’t search for Sophia consistently, so this is more like a fun idea rather than a stable Wipeout.

I always wondered, if the effect kept tripling the damage, the attack would never hit infinity, if the attack goes up every time Yugi does the effect, he'd have to activate it an infinite amount of times, which feels like counting to infinity. For how scripted things have to be, I think this was the first time while watching it originally it felt like 'Main Character Powers'

I believe the thing the stop Avida form being played at all is not the summoning requirement but the limitation that you cannot special summon at all this turn if you want to bring the card out. It is just too hard for a restriction. It is the only monster you can summon for the turn and only monster you have at the end of the turn. Also no protection or negation on opponent field so it will get destroyed easily next turn and your opponent will be able to use the field/GY/banish reset benefits before you
