Stan Alda Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Castle of Dark Illusions DARK Level 4 Fiend/Effect FLIP: Increases the ATK and DEF of all Zombie-Type monsters by 200 points. As long as this card remains face-up on the field, the ATK and DEF of Zombie-Type monsters continues to increase by 200 points during each of your Standby Phases. This effect continues until your 4thturn after the card is activated. 920/1930 Pumpking the King of Ghosts DARK Level 6 Zombie/Effect If "Castle of Dark Illusions" is face-up on the field, increase the ATK andDEF of this card by 100 points. As long as "Castle of Dark Illusions" remains face-up on the field, the ATK and DEF of this card continues to increase by 100 points during each of your Standby Phases. This effect continues until your 4th turn after this card is activated. 1800/2000 There's no reason to run these anymore (where there ever a reason to run them in the first place?), but it's Halloween, so we've got to discuss them. Could Castle help Ghostricks? I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Too bad both are really bad cards. The thought of using a 1930 DEF in any duel is really tempting. Also, I think Pumprincess deserves a mention here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kelly Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Two iconic cards (each having been the big reveal in their own episodes) with clever but ultimately useless effects make these the most amusing cards in the entire game. Only good for playing on Halloween. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 I love Pumpking's art. It's not particularly original, as far as "scary Pumpkin monsters", but it just looks cool. Castle's bizarre stats were ridiculous, because if I remember correctly, they were only written that way so that the Duelist Kingdom Field power bonuses would give them round numbers. Castle therefore is a relic card. It's a reminder that, at one point in the game, we had stats that weren't multiples of 50. A few other cards are like that, too. Like Reaper of the Cards. Both cards' effects are utterly worthless. But I kind of wish Pumpking wasn't Level 6. 1800/2000 that literally doesn't do anything unless another card is out is too meh. MRD times, MRD times.

Azuh Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Well we got Pumprincess in SHSP? I'm hoping for Konami to recreate the Castle of Dark Illusions as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
