Toffee. Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 ZeXal episode 18 - Another instance in which a token was used as an Xyz material. That, plus the fact that Xyz materials apparently are 'still on the field' rather then being sent to an imaginary area, it somewhat makes sense that Tokens could be used as overlay units. Discuss the possibility of Tokens being used as Xyz materials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ieyasu Tokugawa Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Considering the anime tends to do stuff like that, such as Junk Warrior being a continuous effect and Junk Synchron being a Vanilla, OCG probably won't do this. TCG on the other hand.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Nu-13 Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 I'm pretty sure that the card Jin used worked like Name of a Friend, AKA it was a Spell Monster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junk Synchron was never a Vanilla. And yea, TCG might make up more BS about Xyzs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDDRodrigo Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Seeing the weird TCG rulings, having tokens as materials wouldn't sound very weird. But then, so many more abusable stuff would happen. Scapegoat o.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BehindTheMask Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 [b] Q: Can Monster Tokens be used as Xyz Materials? A: "No. You can't use tokens because they're not physical cards you can pile under the Xyz Monster."[/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 I saw Jin's card as similar to Copy Knight, which became a monster upon activation. So he Overlaid a Spell and a Monster, not a token. And for RDA's first duel appearance, Jack summoned Stardust during his Main Phase 2 and it didn't die from RDA's effect. The anime sometimes takes a bit to confirm card effects, especially if the cards aren't created in RL yet. If Tokens could be used, Rank 1 Xyz would be playable.

Sleepy Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Guys, Not using Junk Synchron's effect =/= Junk Synchron being a vanilla. You all saw the orange card. What happens is that first episodes always try to keep it basic so they don't overwhelm new watchers. DM's first episode was nothing but a vanilla after another with like, 2 or 3 spells in that game at most. GX's first episode was a player getting a big monster out and the hero of the show Fusion Summoning once and increasing that Fusion's ATK. That's all. 5d's was full of weak cards and we saw again a 3k ATK monster wasting more than half of the player's hand in order for the main character to beat it. Zexal was also a pretty basic duel with equip boosts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
