"Our Dark Guardian cannot be destroyed in battle." The demon that lives inside my head: But you still take damage.

[@Goblin_Hands]

Too bad they don't make good Gate Guardian support: Labyrinth Maze Field Spell This card cannot be targeted by your opponent's card effects. Any monsters summoned have their effects negated until the end of the turn, and are placed in the next empty monster Zone closest to their owner's Field Spell Zone, and can only attack monsters in the same column. Both players can only use each of the following effects of "Labyrinth Maze" once per turn: ●Move 1 monster you control to an adjacent Monster Zone, then, if your opponent controls more monsters than you, you can move 1 monster you control to an additional adjacent Monster Zone. ●Discard 1 card; add 1 level 7 Monster from your deck or GY to your hand, and if you do, you can Special Summon "Labyrinth Tank" from your Extra Deck, and/or add 1 "Labyrinth" card from your Deck to your hand. Hidden Powers of the Labyrinth Continuous Trap You can only control 1 "Gate Guardian". When an attack is declared, or a card effect is activated while you control "Gate Guardian", you can discard "Sanga of the Thunder", "Suijin", or "Kazejin", to negate that attack or effect. Once per turn, you can reveal "Sanga of the Thunder", "Suijin", and "Kazejin" to Special Summon "Gate Guardian" from your hand, deck, or GY, ignoring summoning conditions, and if you do, it is unaffected by your opponent's card effects and cannot be tributed (even if this card leaves the field.) Once per turn, if a face-up "Labyrinth" card would be destroyed by your opponent's card effect, you can add 1 "Sanga of the Thunder", "Suijin", "Kazejin" or "Riyoku" from your Deck to your hand instead. Dungeon Trap in the Labyrinth Normal Trap Activate as many effects as possible up to the number of other face-up "Labyrinth" cards on the field: ●Special Summon 1 "Monster Tamer" from your hand, Deck, or GY, then take control of 1 monster your opponent controls until "Monster Tamer" leaves the field. ●Send 1 "Dungeon Worm" from your hand or Deck to the GY and Banish 1 monster on the field. ●Banish 1 "Jirai Gumo" from your Deck or GY and Destroy 1 monster on the field and inflict damage to your opponent equal to it's ATK. If a monster(s) on your opponent's side of the field moves to a different monster zone, except the turn you activated this card: you can add this card from your GY to your hand. You can only activate 1 "Dungeon Trap in the Labyrinth" per turn. Magical Labyrinth: Wall Shadow Normal Spell Rearrange your opponent's monsters in their monster zones as you see fit, then, if you control a "Labyrinth" card, Special Summon 1 "Wall Shadow" from your Hand or Deck, ignoring summoning conditions, also, it cannot be destroyed by battle, and any monster that battles it is sent to the GY after Damage Calculation. You can banish this card from your GY to move "Wall Shadow" to any unoccupied monster Zone on your side of the field. You can only use each effect of "Magical Labyrinth: Wall Shadow" once per turn. Sounds like fun, no?

[@TheMysteriouswatcher]

@@Goblin_Hands wtf those cards are broken af

[@Goblin_Hands]

@@TheMysteriouswatcher Well, they need to be at least slightly broken to be considered competitive or even playable. Considering they require you running many garnets and even more garnets and even Moore garnets, they'd have to be. There's a reason why not a single Duelist on Earth uses the actual Legacy support Konami releases (Bakura's new Destiny Board/Necrofear/Diabound support, Weevil's new Ultra Cocoon/Insect Queen, Bandit Keith's new machine stuff, Pegasus's Millenium Eyes support, Red-Eyes trash support, post 2016 Blue-Eyes support, etc). It's because it FUCKING SUCKS! IT'S TRASH. IT'S PATHETIC. IT MAY AS WELL NOT EVEN EXIST. As far as I'm concerned, Sky Strikers and the meta are still more broken than the cards I made.

[@Goblin_Hands]

@@TheMysteriouswatcher But I know what you're really thinking. Yes, that's right I did it too, so relax: there's no need to Panik! Huahahahahah Floatation Ring of Dark Illusions Field Spell When this card is activated, you can Special Summon 1 "Castle of Dark Illusions" from your deck, and its effect now also applies to all DARK monsters you control (you do not need to flip "Castle of Dark Illusions" to activate its effects.) "Dark Illusions" cards cannot be targeted by opponent's card effects. If a face-down monster you control battles a monster, increase it's ATK and DEF by 1000 until the end of the Damage Step. Once per turn (Quick Effect): you can flip any number of monsters you control into face-down Attack Position (including Link monsters), then shuffle all face-down monsters into your Main Monster Zones, and if you do, add 1 "Dark Illusions" card from your deck to your hand (Face-Down monsters can attack, but are flipped at the start of Damage Step). If "Swords of Revealing Light" is face-up on the field, this card's effects are negated. Dark Illusions from the Netherworld Continuous Trap If you control another "Dark Illusions" card, you can activate this card the turn it is set. You must control this many "Dark Illusions" cards with different names to activate and resolve these effects (in any order): 2+: Special summon "Barox" from your Extra Deck or GY (it is treated as Fusion summoned), also, send 1 "Darkness Approaches" card from your hand or deck to the GY and apply its effect, and if you do, draw 1 card. 3+: Special Summon "Dark Chimera" from your hand, deck or GY, then reveal all face-down cards your opponent controls, and if you do, banish 1 card on the field. 4+: Special Summon "King of Yamimakai" from your hand, deck or GY, then flip any number of monsters on the field into face-down Attack Position (including Link Monsters; Face-Down monsters can attack, but are flipped at the start of Damage Step). You can only apply each effect of "Dark Illusions from the Netherworld" once per turn. If your opponent activates "Swords of Revealing Light", destroy this card. The Reaper of Dark Illusions Quick-Play Spell If you control another "Dark Illusions" card, Special Summon 1 "Reaper of the Cards" from your hand, deck, or GY in face-down Attack Position, then target 1 face-down card and declare 1 card-type (Monster, Spell, or Trap); reveal the card, and if it is the declared type, send it to the GY (Face-Down monsters can attack, but are flipped at the start of Damage Step). Cards cannot activate their effects the turn they are sent to the GY by this card's effect. If any "Reaper of the Cards" or a face-down card(s) would be destroyed, you can banish this card from your GY instead. Machination of Dark Illusions Continuous Spell Other "Dark Illusions" cards you control cannot be destroyed by battle or by your opponent's card effects. When this card is activated, you can discard 1 card; add 1 "Dark Illusions" card from your deck or GY to your hand. Once per turn, if you control a "Castle of Dark Illusions" card, you can Special Summon 1 "Metal Guardian" from your hand, deck, or GY, and if you do, activate 1 "Yellow Luster Shield" from your deck. You can banish this card from the GY and target 1 face-down monster your opponent controls; take control of it. You can only activate 1 "Machination of Dark Illusions" per turn. The math from all the monsters' incel stats, combined with techs like "Robbin Goblin' " and flip-effect monsters, plus players stressing out on not knowing wtf they are fighting might make people begin to PANIK: kzbin.info/www/bejne/noGyfYSjprOLqdE

[@Frenzyshark]

@@thejedioutcast804 It gains the total attack of the monsters used to summon it. UFOroid is already at 1200 attack so you got to fuse it with something big. You're forced to use a crappy roid monster so that's kind of the balancing to it.

It may be, but it has also been seen that he is a terrible friend, at the moment of truth he abandons Judai and is even conceited when things are going well for him, he abandoned him in the episode of the captain of the submarine, he abandoned him when he lost all his friends in the kingdom of monsters, perhaps acting impulsive but it just shows when he needed a friend the most, he did not hesitate to abandon him, and when he had a duel to rise in rank he was seen to act conceited just like the other students of higher grades, he just did not act equal to them only because he is mocked, not because he is better than them as a person

[@drvofoka7033]

Just in case anyone's wondering why the fuck Jaden attacked with tempest: It's explained in the sub. Since they can't share strategies with each other, he was trying to show Syrus that you don't have to destroy a monster for the opponent to lose life points. The move WAS basically pointless, but it gave Syrus the confidence to use power bond.

[@cardinalhamneggs5253]

That makes sense.

[@joseph86255]

And to show him that he can use his partner's monsters to summon his own, since Jaden sacrificed his face-down card.

[@shis1988]

I mean... I knew when I watched it because I paid attention back then. The dub explains it too.

[@foxfireinferno197]

Hmm. Jaden could have used Spark Blaster to put Defense Wall into attack mode (you can use it 3 times, no once-per-turn limit), then Syrus could have attacked Gate Guardian with Drillroid and saved Shield Crush for later ... if I recall how all this works right.

[@maxcrysdale2376]

I still don’t understand the first attack with Tempest? All it did was end up wasting Syrus’ facedown card. Which then meant the next tie with Dark Guardian meant he had to get rid of Skyscraper. Am I missing something??

[@dancostello4872]

Dub does a horrible (non-existent) job of explaining it, but in the Japanese sub it's explained that Judai was trying to help Sho without breaking the 'no strategising' rule of the Tag Duel. More specifically, he was showing that he had to sacrifice a card to keep Tempest, prompting the Paradox Brothers to attack it, so he in turn could sacrifice Skyscraper to save Tempest again but this time also take battle damage, that way Sho would see that you can still deal damage without a monster being destroyed by battle. This ultimately helped because come Sho's turn he recognised that playing Power Bond would result in enough battle damage to win, even though Dark Guardian wouldn't be destroyed.

[@SR3TG119]

@@dancostello4872 holy shit, the amount of convoluted mental gymnastics Konami must go through to write such garbage logic lmao

[@TheReaperofHades]

Well Jaden wasn't allowed to talk strategies, so sometimes showing can be just as effective. Of course, anime plot allowed them to do that x3

[@Yugigreg]

@@dancostello4872Thanks for this explanation. I wish the dub was a 1/1 translation but keeping Alexis + Jaidens relationship more intact. In sub all she says is “he’s interesting” whereas in dub she genuinely likes him

[@wjw2807]

If the Paradox Brother have “spirit barrier”, they would have not take any damage with Dark Guardian (Wonder why Jaden attack Dark Guardian with tempest?)

[@philiptucker7590]

Cause Jaden is terrible lol.

[@TheReaperofHades]

He attacked Dark Guardian with Tempest to demonstrate to Syrus that you don't have to destroy the Monster to win. Since he wasn't allowed to verbally share strategies, he had to SHOW Syrus how they could win. In the end, it paid off, as Syrus ultimately wins them the Duel.

When Drillroid attacked and it Auto destroyed the Wall monster, they lost 500 of their 1700 LP, so if that is the case, using the effect to attack Gate Guardian in Defense Mode, they would have destroyed Gate Guardian, but loss 1800 LP, costing them the duel, right?

[@sultanossi8845]

They didnt attack gate guardian tho, they attacked that Wall thingy, Gate guardian was destroyed with the spell card shield crush which doesnt cost anything

[@redrazorx-23]

What gets me is this…Drillroid used its ability to destroy defense wall, how did they take damage?

[@sultanossi8845]

@@redrazorx-23 That's how "before damage calculation(ur already in the damage step here)" works if I'm not mistaken, the effect is destroying the defence monster but the actual battle is different from effect, it's different from Steamroid forexample which his effect directly affects the battle(during damage step(again ur already in the damage step here)),another example is Neo-Spacian Grand mole, which can have his effect applied at the start of the damage step, so when both monster are returned to their owners respective hand no damage happens as it was in the start of the damage step but didnt enter the damage step still(so no damage calculation), ik the explanation is shit😂😅

[@redrazorx-23]

@@sultanossi8845 my question is does drillroid’s actual card say before damage calc. Or after damage calc. If it does than my argument is wrong and it makes sense.
