Strider Tigerwolf Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Dat artwork~ One of the most balanced Spell Counters there is. Why didn't Konami keep it's designs like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildflame Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Underrated card imo. It can be of good use even if you don't get to negate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Was amazing against Infernities. It's still kinda decent but just not worth it really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Griffin Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Very well designed card. A sign that someone working at Konami might actually enjoy toying with the concept of 'good card design' - but those are rare enough that it was probably just a fluke.

[/quote] More like early game stages. The fact that Konami decided the "money" route instead of the "game" route is somewhat determining the future of Yu-Gi-Oh! as a whole. I just hope Konami does the right thing and make a good format that can actually handle the meta instead of banning every single god damned overpowered card they make for money's sake. Actually, card's like these should've been designed in the first place, no if, no ands, no buts about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 One of the best side cards against Decks that only run necessary Spells. (hello Gravekeepers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeppeli Gyro Supreme Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Always a +0, a +1 if your opponent for some reason uses Dark Bribe. Wish more people would find a way to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 An amazing card. It's always worth the Spell negation or Spell discard it provokes. I don't think generic card negation should have ever gone beyond this level up to the Solemn cards (even though Judgment is older). Well..... Dark Bribe is interesting too.

[/quote] I am not compelled to now make a comparison between this and Bribe: Magic Drain: + A -1 for your opponent regardless of what your opponent does - can only negate Spells Dark Bribe: + Can be used to negate either Spells or Traps (including Solemns for the lulz) - is a +/-0 for your opponent (losing a S/T, but getting a free draw), and is thus a -1 for you (needing to use Bride to make the negation) ... and suddenly I'm compelled to make a Trap counterpart to Magic Drain. *flies off to Written Cards* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do not need even more of a reason to only have 1 trap card set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
