Dementuo Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Someone at my lolcals yesterday won because he teched in 3 of them in his deck, and he's normally not such a scrubby player. You all know what it does. Discuss this piece of crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resident Fascist Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 When mirror force was banned, this was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Outclassed by Dimensional, but something to be feared back in the day when you couldn't afford losing a monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 I remember this being a staple run in 3. I also remember that when Mirror Force got unbanned, it was noted that it was a good thing because back then, 3 f/ds could probably be 3 Sakuretsu at the worst and so attacking was a good idea, but with Force back, that kind of mindset was terrible. Sakuretsu is currently outclassed by D-Prison, especially when Stardust came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Nu-13 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Well, Sakuretsu and Dimensional do pretty much the same thing, get rid of an attacking threat. And yes, in most cases, banishing the monster is better than making it hit the grave. But, it's the same case as Dissipate vs Cancel in MTG. First one exiles the card, second makes it hit the grave. Like, in cases when they attack with BLS and you have Monster Reborn in grave, making the Soldier hit the grave isn't half-bad of an idea. There are very few, but there are cases where Sakuretsu is superior to Dimensional. And evilfusion, that's a stupid argument. I mean, extra decks are very cramped nowadays, and people almost always opt for Scrap Dragon instead of Stardust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Games Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 lolTrivia: In the three times it has been used in the anime, it has never been successfully activated. Had the benefit of being the cheaper option, then we got a common mirror force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] For the record, I was referring to when Stardust first came out, and people had to re-evaluate their "outs" to big monsters due to anti-destruction. But even with Scrap Dragon, Prison is still a superior option. Neither are better if Scrap uses its effect, but if you banish Scrap, it can't SS a Scrap, assuming of course that your opponent is using Scraps at all. Ultimately, D-Prison is just more reliable, especially against the cards that cannot be "destroyed" by card effects, or negates effects that "destroy", such as Stardust, SSD, Red Nova, etc. [quote name='King of Games' timestamp='1323795306' post='5704042'] lolTrivia: In the three times it has been used in the anime, it has never been successfully activated.

The cop he OTKed had it (as well as Intercept and Dust Tornado, if I remember correctly). For some reason, I thought he had Mirror Force, not Sakuretsu.
