This Account is Unplayable Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Should go to 2. Not 1. Otherwise it's a good anti-everything card, @2 just stops anti-meta being "Herp, derp, Barbaros, off-field effects and 3 Skill Drain!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 ...Is it just me, or does the new wording for it seem like it contradicts itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Have you seen how big the rulings page is for this card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Because this card is retarded. Anyways, it's my main nemesis as a card, and putting it @1 will give me pleasant thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranma1/2 Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 lol i find the wording funny. you can activate their effects! "really? " yeah! "okay! i'll use black luster soldier to banish--" skill drain's on the field, stupid! "but--" no! "but you said--" I SAID NO SUCH THING!! other than that, i side at least 1 of these. it seems like it's stupid but it would help when you need the game to be a beatdown-only deck.

Mysty Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 I actually like what they did with its wording. This clears up that Skill Drain can be rather limited in what it negates instead of being a "remove all text from the monster" effect. Now all they need to do is differentiate effects from costs and conditions by some means. It's very annoying having n00bs tell me that any of Quickdraw Synchron's text is an effect.

Mugendramon Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 There's one thing I always wanted to know about this vs Number 20. Its boost will be negated if face-up, that's obvious enough. But since it's permanent, would it also fade if it was no longer on the field? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newhat Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Brilliant doesn't care if it's still on the field or if Skill Drain is out.

[/quote] The basic rule for ATK gain is if it only, and I repeat, ONLY affects itself (Leviathan Dragon, Barbaros), negating it resets the attack. If it affects or COULD affect other monsters (Sirocco, Giga Brilliant), negating it after the fact does nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
