What was I gonna play again? [Memory Snatcher]

[玄魔の王]

 

Your opponent cannot look at cards in their Graveyard. If the effect of your opponent's Spell, Trap, or Effect Monster targets a card(s) in their Graveyard, your opponent must name the target(s). If the target(s) is not in the Graveyard, that effect is negated.

 

Additional effect: You may use your Psychic powers to make your opponent forget their entire Graveyard.

 

Discuss.

[werewolfjedi]

yeah, that card won't effect me.

or any person who can keep track of their grave.

or any person playing a macro deck.

[Flame Dragon]

The only time this will hurt your opponent is if they are an idiot. Normally if a card you care about ends up in the grave your going to remember it.

 

Also I'd assume the opponent would check the grave.

[evilfusion]

Don't people check their grave BEFORE activating a card? So yeah, without psychic powers to make someone forget, this is useless.

[burnpsy]

@evilfusion: After a while with this in play, you won't be able to check the grave and will eventually forget what was there. Especially if one is running some stupid deck with Question @3.

 

This was only good in the anime because the user of this card cheated with his power to somehow empty that other dude's memory.

[evilfusion]

D'oh. Didn't realize it was continuous.

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

lol, an how would you stop your opponent from checking?

i'm sure they'll distract you and have a quick check.

or just fan out they're grave while they play.

stupid card is stupid

Thats how I usually play, RFG and Grave fanned out, unless there is a big crowd and I think someone is trying to steal my ish....

In an official setting, one would call a judge and perhaps have said judge supervise.

 

Really, cheating is irrelevant to how good or bad a card is. Also, fanning out the grave isn't the official way to place the grave (officially, it's one stack of cards in the same order as when they went to the grave). My guess would be that the person who fans their grave would be forced to do it the normal way.

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

would you really go through all that trouble for one card that really doesnt have a MAJOR impact on the game?

Irrelevant.

 

Also, decks such as Lightsworns that fill up their grave will have a hard time remembering which LS the in the grave. So anything that runs through their deck really fast and uses the Graveyard is countered by this as well.

anti-meta card when combed with mill. lol.

[Guest PikaPerson01]

If you remember a target, wouldn't the opponent then be screwed because you'd need to move or whatever the monster you targeted?

 

Like... say my random level 2 monster was destroyed. I normal summon Junk Synchron, then declare the target. I then pick up my graveyard and put the card in question onto the field, after not-so-subtly looking through my entire graveyard and committing it to memory.

 

Even so, it's only useful for decks that target graves, and only if your opponent is an idiot.

 

And after it activates wouldn't your opponent then put forward the extra effort to memorize every card that gets sent?

 

tl;dr: Big Burn is better.

Pey, pretty much.

Your opponent cannot look at cards in their Graveyard.

 

OTK:

1. Activate this.

2. Draw your opponent's attention to their Graveyard.

3. As soon as they look at it, call for a judge and claim your opponent should be disqualified.

 

RINSE AND REPEAT.

Wow. That's actually BETTER than Yu-Jo Friendship FTK!

[Expelsword]

Explain Yu-Jo Friendship?

[-Griffin]

Opponent: "I activate Memory Snatcher!"

Me: "Great, before it resolves, I'll check my Graveyard and write down each card on a bit of note paper."

if I have unity, you must shake my hand.

 

I'm running a fever right now, my hand covered in snot, etc. etc.

 

do you really want to shake my hand?

IIRC, notes were against the rules for things like Dustshoot, so why would you be allowed to do it in this instance?

[RyanAtlus]

Lol, funny wordings...

I believe some older cards stated "throw a die" instead of "roll a die". Technically, you could throw your die at the opponent, just to piss him off.

No silly, because when cards are in a duel disk you can't see your Graveyard, you just THINK the card you want and it re-appears.

 

OR

 

Since you can't check your Graveyard, you can't look at the cards even when searching for a target you can name. You just have to guess.

[Guest PikaPerson01]

That's not what I'm saying...

 

My turn: Set Ryko

 

Opponent's turn: Opponent summons any random guy and attacks Ryko. Ryko mills 3 and kills opponents any random guy.

 

My turn: My turn. Summon Junk Synchron. Since it just happened, I definitely know for a fact Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter is in the grave. I call it.

 

Now, when I go to get Ryko I have to go through my graveyard to see it, since it's at the bottom. I can also go and check every single other card I've milled.

 

 

... On a completely unrelated note, the problem with this card is the same problem with Question. It's only good as a surprise. Once it gets used more, people will start writing down their graveyards.
