Zauls Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Lord_of_the_Tachyon_Galaxy They are all Rare in TCG and we are also getting the mini ones in the same pack (currently unknown rarity).... Great. Now everyone and his grandma will be playing them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Yeah, If they can afford the Extra Deck though. The only one of them I care about is Tempest tbh. Originally, I thought it was a joke, but then I thought about the logic for Tenki, since the E-Dragons can separately support other decks as well, it'd make sense they'd be of a lower rarity, and ofc I do think that the Chibis will all be Super. (We can agree on that right?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(We can agree on that right?) It actually does make sense for them to be rare for that reason. And yes, it does mean that the mini ones will probably be a higher rarity (probably super). Drago-sack is secret as well, so 3 of those and 3 Big Eye is what makes the deck expensive. I'm still angry at how Mermails will get even better with Tidal and for little extra money. The others aren't as bad as they make non-meta decks more playable, rather than a Tier 0 deck even Tier 0er... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Althemia Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 I mean them being rare was a very good business choice because of how versatile the dragons are meant to be, seeing as how they're supposed to fit into give or take every deck. If they were to put them at a rarity like Tour Guide, the second hand market would absolutely explode and they would be ridiculous prices.Glad these are rare. Will probably pick up some Blasters + Burns in prep for Fire Fist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerion Brightflame Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 As has been said, it's Tenki logic all over again. Everyone and there uncle wants one, and the chibi/amazing thing in the tech part (So Bear for Tenki). So the thing people want more of is lower rarity, and they make the thing that really makes the engine good the higher one. Say what you will about Konami, they might be souless, but they know how to run a card game business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Berserker- Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 I only care about Tidal, for Seaking purposes, and it will come shiny in a cool-looking tin. With the low rarity, more people around me will consider building the deck, and more chances I'll find a buyer for my Big Eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdoopertrooper Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 It's good that they're rares. At least then you don't have to be Bill Gates to play the game competitively IRL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Wait... If all of them are Rare, then the tin versions of them just seems really silly :/Either way, nice to know I can get a playset of Redox now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Well, the babies can't be Secret or Ultra. Based on the fact that they're probably not going to make the babies a higher rarity than the adults... they're probably going to be common. WE'RE ALL BONED.

WE'RE ALL BONED.Babies are give or take going to be super just because they're the thing that made the deck the thing it is today. Konami wants people to have access to the big dragons from how generic they are, yet want E-Dragon players to pay more for the babies just because they make the deck etc.I don't even know where you got the logic about the babies not being a higher rarity than the adults. That's really just stupid logic. Wait... If all of them are Rare, then the tin versions of them just seems really silly :/Either way, nice to know I can get a playset of Redox now.Some people are rarity whores. Some people also do not like testing their luck on pulling potential shortprints. Also the reprints in both tins are probably going to be really important, considering how Tidal tin will probably have a bunch of WATER reprints like Megalo and Blaster tin will probably have some FIRE reprints like Bear.

Agro Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 I don't even know where you got the logic about the babies not being a higher rarity than the adults. That's really just stupid logic. Konami DOES have a history of having the most "powerful" cards in the respective archetypes be of high rarities than the rest. Namely the ones with higher stats. It's always been like that. Giga-Mantis in Inzektors, the crappy-ass cards in Hieratics, the boss monsters in all the recent archetypes. So no, it's not stupid logic. At all. Good day.

Althemia Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 uhh, but Tenki was a commonThat's exactly the point. Tenki logic is that decks other than the exclusive deck will want it, thus they make it a lower rarity card in order to satisfy customer demand. The babies, in this case, are things such as Bear. They will only be played in E-Dragons to their full potential(for the most part, although other decks may want it/them like 3-Axis and Nimbles) thus they can increase the rarity without harm because of the lower audience.

Dementuo Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Neither are the babies. Yet I said for the most part they are the core to the decks. Konami doesn't follow "Metagame" logic all the time. If you think about Hieratics, all the good ones (Except Atum) were Common. The others that were supposed to be the more "Powerful" ones were Rare, Super, Ultra, and even Secret (Though Helio and Atum are admittedly good cards).

I was literally just saying that Agro was incorrect for thinking that they would be common because the big ones are more powerful. You're contradicting yourself. That's exactly what you were doing. My point is the same as Demmy's. If it's possible for them to be common because they're not the big and powerful cards in the archetype, then my logic isn't stupid. It is possible, therefore my logic isn't stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
