I feel like he knew a bit more than he let on because the first attack power he saw listed was 100, and the next was 1500/2000 which he didn't even flinch at. He didn't even ask the life total which is important because if max life was 1000 this card would have been pretty good.

Omg finally someone mentioned Faerie Macabre, Magic's closest analogue to a Yugioh hand trap. It's a tad obscure so I understand it not coming up often or most players not even being aware it exists though, it'd take someone playing for quite a long time with experience in multiple formats like Andrea probably. The difficulty spike from the Rhynos to the Morganite and later cards was massive, fun episode.

Idk where my cards are now, but wonder how much it would be worth these days. I'd guess first edition MRD Mirror Force and first edition PSV Jinzo would be worth quite a bit? Also, remember when Magic Card rather than Spell Card used to be printed on the cards and the shade of green was slightly different? And when Mechanical Chaser used to be worth hundreds of dollars because it was the only 1850 beat stick among all the 1800s until Gemini Elf came out? After the power creep got to 1900 beat sticks as commons and the original anime ended, I lost interest in the game.

It's only in super modern YGO that it's become outclassed, like half a decade or so, and that's more-so because traps period are nearly useless, and negates are SO prevalent that even if you get to the point where you could activate it, it's probably going to get negated anyway. Plus it's just more useful to have active response. Negates and mid-turn targeted destroys/banishes are WAY more useful. Negates and destroys/banishes can stop a combo which can prevent your opponent from drawing cards into their hand. And a negated effect is essentially a dead card, while a destroyed card may just be graveyard fodder for summoning a secondary line in MP2. I feel like an upgraded mirror force that banished everything might actually be played, but since monsters being sent to the graveyard just... isn't really an issue for most decks... Plus there's just better traps these days to play if you're trying to bait the opponent into caring about backrow, or trying to punish them for targeting backrow blindly. But really, if you're going to play mirror force, you might as well just play Nibiru instead, and if you're already playing all legal copies of nibiru and still have to care about defensive board wipe capabilities... I honestly just really don't know what to say at that point.

Another part of what makes Masquerena so strong is that she can link away monsters that have already used their powerful effects like spent once-per-turn negates, so there's very little downside to using the extra monster as material since it has already served its purpose.

Pot of Prosperity is also a good example of how differently the two games phrase certain effects/restrictions. If I remember how the last restriction functions, in Magic's templating, it's effect would read something like: "Cast this spell only if you have not drawn cards this turn except the first card you draw during each of your draw steps. Choose 3 or 6, then exile that many cards from outside the game. Reveal that many cards from the top of your library. Put one of them into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in any order. Until end of turn, you can't draw cards. If a source would deal damage to an opponent this turn, it deals half that damage, rounded down, to that player instead."

@AtomicArtumas 2 ай бұрын
Not going to use your whole extra deck for most decks* - There's definitely a few competitive/meta decks that DID/DO use pretty much their whole extra deck in a single duel, or heavily relied on having access to the whole extra deck depending on which cards they had in their starting hand and what part of which combo got negated, like dragon link for example. I've literally gone through over 10 extra deck cards in a single turn with it before under specific circumstances. (going second with a long uninterrupted chain but lots of targets on the field to deal with, so having to abuse recurrence to get multiple link 3-4s on the field.)

Well, in Underworld Goddess text you can use your opponent's monster. Same goes for I:P+Micro Coder. This happens because sometimes text is there just to describe regular procedures. This is totally that case because I:P effect is to start a regular link summon which is why you can't trigger cards that would trigger when sent to the GY by card effect. This is clarified by the "Immediately after this effect resolves..." The effect already happened and "using materials you control" is just what you do normally when Link summoning.

I agree, sometimes those classifications are quite subjective and depend on the deck in which a card is played. For example: I used Morganite in Master Duel in a (more or less) pure Runick Mill deck. I don't use hand trap monsters in that deck, so the downside doesn't matter. Plus: With Runick Fountain (up to 3 extra draws per turn) as well as other cards such as "Card Destruction" and "One Day Of Peace", there is quite a lot of draw power, making sure that I'll draw at least one Morganite most of the time.

@SpottedZebra
@SpottedZebra 2 ай бұрын
Right, it's always been a factor in this game that most instants spend some time in a state equivalent to a non-creature permanent. The ones with the highest potential like Mirror Force were played early on out of lack of other defensive options, which in turn made it common to play a lot of "disenchants." Then there was a period of favoring ones that did less but had more freedom by not being a "when x", like "return target monster to the hand" could be played in response to an attempt to destroy it. Now it's mostly from the hand effects only because the speed is so high that it matters that these can be played before you've taken any turns.

for me mirror force should be consider a staple, today is not a relevant card but we have to remember that in the early days of the game it was always been played and limited and it is at 3 only since 2014. a nice idea to identify if a card should be if any time during the game history there was a meta where that card was included in some high competitive like deck taht won tournament at that time.

I think some of these need a little bit more context. Mirror force was a staple for like 10 years, so saying that it is a stinker because it hasn't been good in a while doesn't really give the full scope of how good that card used to be. That's like saying that kalia is a bad commander because she's been power crept.

The only reason that mirror force isn’t good in the modern game is because the modern game itself isn’t good lol

Just one note. For those of us playing at home, maybe hide the price until we’ve read the card and made our guess.

I liked Andrea comparing Yu-GiOh to legacy. Often Magic players are a bit dismissive of Yu-Gi-Oh so it was nice to see someone pointing out the similarities.

Yo, putting the card value up kinda sucks because it gives away the game. Could it go when u reveal stinker vs staple instead?

I feel like mirror force is maligned, sure it's a stinker now, but when yugioh first started and combat was the only way to win outside of exodia, it was good, good enough to be restricted!

Tbh I think the explanation why Morganite isnt a staple is another. Of course you cant use hand effects for the rest of the turn, which includes hand traps but it also includes summoning effects and other hand related effects as well and the most important point why it is bad is that it only generates advantage over time. You even go only neutral next turn and the double summon is to inconsistent to build your deck around or can give you advantage. It is in fact a card which only gets good when you live multiple turns but at start does nearly nothing and gives you a restriction.

Morganite only stops you from activating monster effects from the hand. It doesn't stop inherent Summons (so you can still use Fenrir, Diabellstar, even Cyber Dragon with Clockwork Night...) and doesn't stop the trap "hand traps" i.e. Imperm and Red Reboot. Stun is actually relatively good in the current meta, all things considered, and with Paleo lists topping regionals thanks to renewed interest in the archetype, it's a staple in that deck. It's also worth noting a lot of meta decks can now play through 3 hand traps and most hand trap design is 1 for 1, while a stun or control strategy that's aiming for high card value (either a floodgate blowout, or something like abusing Transaction Rollback) will snowball advantage if they live past turn 2. So you're just wrong, the card is objectively good, but niche.

I'd say the only way to use that. Spell card the time, Terry, whatever would be after you're done using all your abilities from your hand it's a pot of greed at the end and I don't know and honestly I would just use it at towards the end of my play. OK, I've done all the nonsense. I wanna do all the shenanigans from my hand and that's like say the last card. I can play whatever else there might be in my hand I don't wanna play yet. I play providing.There's nothing in my hand that I might want to play during my opponent's term which means once my turn begins again.And I get to pretty much potted green.Yeah it is not that good of a card But it's not the worst
