Konami putting rare reprints of cards that got mass reprints in the Rarity Collections & Bonanza (Allure, Time Thief) is the dumbest thing possible and shows just how out of touch this company is with their product releases. Also, once again, making ultras so archetype heavy with only 4 a box is just a slap to players. Also, they kept the Maliss art (leotards) but censor the exact same type of clothing on Dominus Impulse... I truly don't get their rhyme or reason.

The p stands for pawn as a chess reference, the c stands for chapter referring to the book the archetype is based on and the acronym for the chapter number, and Q stands for queen

[@larrygenereux7572]

The name "Maliss" is derived from the word "malice", in reference to malicious software or malware, and the name "Alice", the protagonist of Lewis Carroll's most notable works: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. The name "Alice" is also commonly used as a placeholder name in scenarios and discussions about cryptographic systems and protocols. In mathematical logic, the turned A (∀) symbol is used to indicate universal quantification as a logical constant representing "for all" in a set. In addition to referencing Carroll's work in mathematics and the use of math in computer code, it may be a visual pun on how the worlds the protagonist of the novels explore are metaphorical "upside-down worlds" where normal logic is suspended, and which are supposedly geographically-located underground or on the other side of a reflection. Members The monsters resemble female humanoids based on characters from Lewis Carroll's novels. Their designs have visual elements of digital technology and cyberspace in reference to the archetype's theme of malware. The designation of Main Deck monsters as pawns and the Link Monsters as queens is based on the special rule of promotion in the game of chess. This is a reference to Through the Looking-Glass, where Alice takes the role of a pawn and is promoted to a queen.

[@fenrisnox5766]

It was already impossible to get a core in TCG "deck build sets" and this set made it even worse with the rarity upgrades. I was wanting to play Maliss because I love the idea of an archetype based on Alice in Wonderland, but being able to do so on a budget is just impossible. Looking at the set list Ryu-Ge is the budget as multiple engines and a single ultra for a pure version. Ryzeal has 5 and Maliss has the remaining 4. Also the Maliss cards are like this: is Pawn (main deck) is Code (traps) is Queen (extra deck) If you looked at the set description more, it says this when talking about the archetype.

[@Liliana_the_ghost_cat]

The P actually most likely stands for Pawn. It makes more sense as a chess reference, something plot relevant in Alice Through the Looking Glass. A Pawn, just like a Princess, has the capacity to become a Queen, which mirrors a plot point in Through the Looking Glass. As for the C, it being Chapter makes sense. Given that all of the codes are references to chapters in Alice, although it could also stand for Code. I'm not quite sure

From the basic knowledge Malice is malware x Alice in wonderland If so P should stand for "pointers" and C is for coding or what most gamers know it as the C++ language or scripting. (Yes Java and python are thing too I will not forget that) but basically it's a double meaning of P= point to direction as we also have link boss monsters. And C for coding but also scripting as in the story script or storyboard script of a book/novel etc. So summery : it's indicating that it's based on Alice in wonderland by script...but also a malware coding
