Zoologist Reviews Paleozoic Archetype from Yu-Gi-Oh!
Рет қаралды 33,646
Күн бұрынI review the paleozoic archetype from Yu-Gi-Oh! mostly on how accurate their artwork design is. I also talk about their effect, but not gonna overthink it. If you are wondering whether Paleozoic would receive further support, or maybe just want to make your own custom card, then I'll tell you other animals that would fit as the basis.

In case you were wondering: in modern variants of Paleozoics the best main deck Paleozoic traps are actually Marella and Leanchoilia because they can respectively send and recycle "Transaction Rollback" to your graveyard. Transaction Rollback is a trap that you can banish from your graveyard in order to activate the effect of any other trap card in your graveyard (circumventing it's cost), which is absurdly powerful. Olenoides, Dinomischus and Canadia are also played because for one their effects decent, but their main purpose is being extra bodies you can summon from grave to facilitate getting your XYZ Paleos asap. Eldonia, Halucigenia and Pikaia see no play since their effects are awful.

The thing is, i literally never played pikmin before and i simply don't like talking about something when i basically knows nothing about them and just look at them on the surface for a video. I'm planning to try playing the game though. Do you have any recommendation on which game to play mr. all-around helper? (don't cut my body into pieces though)

@@OutofPlaceZoologist Pikmin 4 has the most expansive roster of creatures overall, if you just want to play 1 game, and it has most of the ones from previous games.
@LordAnb 21 күн бұрын
I'd say either pikmin 1 or 4 are the best ones to start with. 1 still holds up as a great standalone game, but it's the shortest one. I think it delivers being "the first pikmin experience", having fun creatures and puzzles. 4 has more stuff to do in general and is easier, also with a lot of neat quality of life stuff. It's a lot longer but that means it has a lot more creatures.
