Resident Fascist Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Isn't bad for the Meta at all. Infact it seems to fit right in and allow the losing player to get a Second chance. It and Dark Hole can stay in the Meta as long as they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 He first wrote...the Yugi vs "Kaiba" duel? Or something else? Anyway, Monster Reborn has always been a good card and always will be. In the days of Synchros and Xyz, generic revival from any player's Graveyard serves one of two purposes. 1) It's brokenly unfair to be able to costlessly bring back big beatsticks, cards with good effects, or specifically Leveled monsters from either player. 2) It's a counter for the strategy of Grave set-up by ditching crucial cards and reviving them yourself. I like Reborning my opponent's Grapha, for example, and I once baited my opponent to use Stardust's effect, and then revived it (granted, I dont want to use its effect). It's a lucksacky card, but I don't think it's murdering the meta, which may explain why it finally stopped its "format unbanned, format rebanned, rinse and repeat" pattern.

Northern Sage Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Technically, the very first duel was Yugi vs Joey/Jonouchi (the one that started off the very first episode as well), but Yugi vs Kaiba (the one where Exodia wasn't used) was the first full manga duel. The other one was just a conclusion, basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Totems aren't handheld =_= Wiki says: A [b]totem[/b] is a stipulated ancestor of a group of [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People"]people[/url], such as a [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family"]family[/url], [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan"]clan[/url], group, lineage, or [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribe"]tribe[/url].[sup][url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totem#cite_note-0"][color=#0645AD][[/color][color="#0645ad"]1[/color][color=#0645AD]][/color][/url][/sup] Totems support larger groups than the individual person. In [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinship_and_descent"]kinship and descent[/url], if the [url="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/apical_ancestor"]apical ancestor[/url] of a clan is nonhuman, it is called a totem. Normally this belief is accompanied by a totemic myth. Although the term is of [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ojibwe"]Ojibwe[/url] origin in [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_America"]North America[/url], totemistic beliefs are not limited to [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_peoples_of_the_Americas"]Native Americans[/url]. Similar totem-like beliefs have been historically present in societies throughout much of the world, including Africa, Asia, Australia, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and the Arctic polar region. In modern times, some single individuals, not otherwise involved in the practice of a tribal religion, have chosen to adopt a personal spirit animal helper, which has special meaning to them, and may refer to this as a totem. This non-traditional usage of the term is prevalent in the [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Age"]New Age[/url] movement, and the [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mythopoetic_men%27s_movement"]mythopoetic men's movement[/url].

This Account is Unplayable Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 I prefer the ankh version, purely because it reminds me of Shadi and how badass he was in the manga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
