Stop throwing the phrase "For Free" around.


Recommended Posts

Fengsheng Mirror doesn't let you look at your opponent's hand "for free". Mystical Space Typhoon doesn't destroy a Spell or Trap Card "for free". And so on. It's not free because you're spending a card to do it; MST costs itself, Fengsheng Mirror costs itself, and so on.

 

Seriously, guys. I'm seeing this phrase in every other topic, and it is always being misused. Stop it.

 

Oh, and by the way, Arcana Force EX - The Dark Ruler should be at 3. Just thought you should know.

Every card costs at least itself though...there's not really anything to discuss here is it? I mean you have a point but what you're saying is just well...common sense.

 

And everyone saying "for free" lacks common sense. Everyone seems to forget that using MST or Fengsheng Mirror is a -1 in itself.

If this card is in your Side Deck during the beginning of any Duel, Special Summon it under the control of any player you chose. Then, select 1 card you own and place it in your Side Deck. (A card you own is any card not in your Main Deck, Extra Deck or Side Deck that you are able to handle without anyone attempting to stop you by asserting provable legal ownership over said card.)

 

Broken, but free.

YOU CAN ACTIVATE LIGHTING FORTEX "FOR FREE", PROVIDED YOU DISCARD 1.

No it wouldn't.

If it said, you can activate this card from your back pocket without it ever being in any form of Deck, THEN it would be free.

All cards generally cost themselves, a Summon, a reveal, or SOMETHING. Treeborn costs some way to get him to the Graveyard, Foolish, set him, using a card you might otherwise not, ect.

wow, that was funny to see how much they tried to make a "for free" card, when the spell counter deck kinda has been doing the whole " I do this without using up a card" thing for a while now.

 

course, that's a deck type that is kinda slow, if determined.

 

on the dark ruler, I find it a decent monster, but the double attack effect that turns it to def mode isn't as useful as people think.

 

you can't always wipe the field, and sp. summon this, get heads, and attack for game.

 

most people have seven ways to sunday to stop something like this, and will do it.

 

also @ crab: do you think anyone is going to make fortune monarchs effectively?
