-Griffin Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 ...I never got how the card picture relates to the mighty being /burdened/. If anything, it looks like the mighty are having a damn easy time picking on those birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHN. Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Actually fun to play, and very annoying when you play against it If MST was somehow banned, this would get more play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] you had NO idea how i be wanting to ask that question! xD it just doesn't show any relation what do ever!!! @ENH: it's is fun card when you play it but at the same time you'd hate it when you play against it. Of course that happen to be a fair trade upon our reactions. it is true it will get more play if that happen but then again there will tend to be more substitute for it along the way, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 If it stays on the field for over 3 turns the opponent either sucks or has a deck dedicated to something irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's definitely not wanting to go all out on these poor little birds, but may otherwise be forced to. It's "A Burden on the Mighty" (or the Japanese translation on the wiki "Pain of the Leader") in regards to those that (i.e. The Hand), while having the power to easily destroy those weaker than they are, when forced to destroy the weak by a ruthless higher power (i.e. the Player), especially ones that couldn't possibly pose a threat in battle (i.e. cute birdies~), the attacking monster's conscience is holding them back and is lowering team morale (i.e. Attack Power).

darkwolf777 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Just look at the birds chirping in their defense. If you had a soul, you wouldn't be able to all out attack them either if you had to. When you think of the Japanese translated name of "Pain of the Leader", as a Leader, an event may come up where, some sacrifices may be necessary, while it may pain you to do so. Such thoughts of how many innocent people that have died under your reign based on your decision to do the right thing may "burden" your soul, and makes you less effective as a leader. If you have no soul, then this wouldn't affect you most likely. I think my first interpretation sounds a little better (though possibly matching "Burden of the Mighty" more than "Pain of the Leader") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Whenever I read the effect, it seems rather inconsequential. Then when people use it against me, it's one of the most frustrating cards ever, because it reduces damage and lets even mediocre monsters match your better monsters in battle. And Synchros feel the pain the most, as it drops Stardust down to a mere 1700, while your opponent's monsters are untouched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skymiles Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Ok, so me and 6 of my friends have started a yugioh circle where we meet up and play yugioh. My friend, jacob decided to start a tournament where as soon as you lost you where out. Me and Jacob made it to the final and the guy had 3 of these in his deck and drew 2 of them at the start. My monsters were powerless! But then giant trunade, mystical space typhoon etc helped me out and I won the Tournament. But because of this card it was the hardest duel i have ever won. So my opinion, its annoying as hell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shizuku Oikawa Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 3 or 2 of these + King Tiger Wanghu = Normal/Special Summon lockdown. Annoying card is annoying. It's like a noob card at school, and I can usually never draw into S/T Removal in time before my field is at a lost of monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niv-Mizzet Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I digress. Annoying card is fun to play with. It is, without doubt, ragequit worthy. Damn, I've gotta build that deck that's only win con is my opponent ragequitting. Auto three-of in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I'd think Exceeds would make this card better. They have fairly low ATK compared to Synchros of similar difficulty to bring out, and only Exceeds are immune to it. So if your opponent isn't using Exceeds, that's a bonus. Considering how some people will dismiss Exceeds off the bat, this could run rampant on persistent Synchro users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This card'll die when Exceeds become the new synchro monster, like everyone knows they will. I wish they'd have a format without synchros or exceeds or even archetypes...I love classic yugioh.

He hesitates because of ethical inhibitions telling him that to pick on those birds is wrong, thus reducing his ATK by 100 for each of his Levels.
