shadowsapex Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 IRL version is perfectly balanced. Magicians don't even need it to win. It's something they use to secure the kill on occasion.3/4ths of Zarc's anime cards deserve the banlist. They're taking liberties with the fact that the irl cards are already made.

Hallohallo Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 [spoiler=Script 138]Last Time’s Egao Count: 252GONGENZAKA: As we left Academia’s underground training facility and headed for the surface,Sawatari and I found Edo and Sora, both wounded, in a city of the Fusion Dimension, which has been torn apart by a cataclysm that no one expected.GONGENZAKA: According to the two of them, this cataclysm was caused by Akaba Leo merging the four dimensions together.GONGENZAKA: We learned that the one who destroyed the city was the fusion of Yuya, Yuto, Yugo, Yuri, and the four dragons, Supreme Dragon King Zarc.He was resurrected when they became one.GONGENZAKA: Edo and Sora believed that Yuya’s soul is still residing inside Zarc, and fought against him.But they were defeated by his overwhelming power.And now, even Kurosaki and Kaito…Captain Falcon: Action Magic, Miracle, activate!Kaito: Action Magic, Evasion, activate!Zarc: Using my power, I can negate and destroy cards added to the hand outside of the Draw Phase!Captain Falcon: Even the Action Cards…Zarc: Get out of my sight!Captain Falcon: AAAAHHHH!Kaito: AAAAAHHHHHHH!GONGENZAKA: But we must not give up.Just wait. Yuya.GONGENZAKA: If your soul is locked inside Zarc, I…JACK: And I, Jack Atlas, will set it free!Let’s do this! Narrator: The world is divided into four dimensions.Across these dimensions, there are four boys, who all share the same face,And the dragons they possess call out to one another,As if seeking out each other…(Opening Sequence)JACK: It’s my turn!When I have no monster on my Field,I can Special Summon Red Gargoyle from my hand!JACK: Then, I summon the Tuner Monster, Red Resonator!JACK: Red Gargoyle’s effect activates!Red Resonator’s Level is doubled!I’m tuning the Level-4 Red Gargoyle with the Level-4 Red Resonator!The king's roar shall make the heaven and earth tremble!Let the power of the one and only supreme ruler be carved into your soul!Synchro Summon!Come forth!Red Daemon's Dragon Scarlight!Tokumatsu: Are you all right, kids!?Frank: What on earth is that giant dragon!?Tanner: Red Daemon's looks like an ant in comparison!Amanda: Is that the Fusion Dimension?SAWATARI-SAN: Damn it!I’m left behind while this big showdown is going on...!THIS IS YOUR FAULT, CROW!Sora: Crow?SAWATARI-SAN: Yeah.He saved me in the underground facility, and…(BB flashback)SAWATARI-SAN: If it’s Jack and Gongenzaka,They can deliver our feelings to Yuya for sure!SAWATARI-SAN: Let’s watch over this match together, okay, Crow?JACK: Sakaki Yuya!

Superheavy Samurai Katanaka-G!(Note: Katanakaji literally means swordsmith)Zarc: Hmm…The other one is also a Synchro user, huh?But summoning it in Defense Position is kind of cowardly.GONGENZAKA: Did you forget, Yuya?This is my Dueling!

~British Soul~ Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Managed to catch up with last week's episode [spoiler=Thoughts on 137 Subbed (aka Initial thoughts)]- So Shun vowed to end things with one strike remembering Yuto sorted him out with one punch in Standard and wanted to return the favour- Zarc with the cockblocking plays, even the Action Cards that would've saved Shun/Kaito's asses- I did find it neat that even though neither player knew what the other had, Shun/Kaito both had Limitover Force to try and overpower Zarc, until they were cockblocked and lost. - And now Shun passes the pendant to Gongenzaka. (Wonder who he'll pass it to when he/Jack loses) - At least Gongenzaka was there to catch Shun/Kaito to prevent them from sustaining injuries.- Meanwhile Reiji/Reira are noticing people walking through the dimension even though they aren't physically there as per the effets of the dimensional integration. Now to watch the new episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premier Alexander Romanov Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 [spoiler=So...uh...]Why didn't jack nuke the field with Tyrant? Gongenzaka's monsters would've been blown up anyway, and that clears zarc's scales. [spoiler=Because]It only would've destroyed the Scales and the Equip Spell, and Zarc could've chained SKSD - Clear Wing to it.But really, this duel was a total mess. The writers needed Jack and Gogenzaka to lose, so they had them make asinine plays and not do anything to really put up a fight.However, I have a question of my own. Why don't they just let Zarc win the duel, and start a new one? It would dismiss the Zarc Dragon and reset the playing field to give the next pair a better shot, or, even better idea, EVERYONE ATTACK ZARC AT ONCE.

evilfusion Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 [spoiler=Thoughts/Replies]I thought Zarc makes ALL his cards immune to Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz. At the very least, it makes all his MONSTERS immune, and you needed 2 monsters to kill Clear Wing, because it negates the first attack, and kills something. While using Tyrant could feasibly get rid of the Scales and Equip Spell, that wouldn't be enough. Clear Wing's backlash still required Gogenzaka to make his plays as before, costing him the rest of his LP. And Tyrant's effect makes it the only one that can attack that turn, so Clear Wing wouldn't die. Also, Jack didn't even seem to realize Zarc HAD Scales set, nor what their effects were. Clear Wing and Zarc itself were the most obvious things out. Why are they insisting on the Battle Royale rather than letting a Duel conclude and starting fresh? Because that'd be moronic. Not from a "logic" standpoint, as people keep saying the smartest thing to do would be to start a fresh Duel, and they're not entirely wrong. It's moronic because it'd be an utter WASTE of time and animation. It'd be terrible storytelling, too. You don't bring out this ultimate threat, final villain, and then force them to take out opponents, one by one, fresh duel by fresh duel. It'd slow everything to a halt. It's more epic and tense for the "protagonists" to be at a massive disadvantage, and struggling not only to free Yuya's mind (as they're mostly trying to do), but also just to endure another turn against the demon Duelist. Since it's a work of fiction, even if Zarc was forced to start fresh, he could EASILY re-open with combos to bring out the dragon overlord. It wasn't exactly hard for him to do the first time. The sheer amount of time that would have to be devoted to this would be ludicrous. Why are they not all attacking at once? Because they're not all in the same place. Also, this could backfire spectacularly. No matter how many opponents there are, the Summon of Zarc kills all monsters and burns ALL players with destroyed monsters for the total ATK. That's why Sora and Edo lost simultaneously, despite Sora having 4000 LP and only a 2800 ATK monster killed. The more players there are at the start of a Duel, the more players that'll be thrown aside like trash when Zarc is Summoned. Also, the implication is that Zarc is actively trying to destroy the world, and Dueling him is the ONLY way to temporarily delay him from resuming his rampage. Also, because the Dragon Overlord IS Zarc, it's actually plausible to me that Zarc is ALWAYS in Duel Mode. Remember Leo's flashback showed them taking military weaponry to the dragons (useless), and recruiting numerous Duelists to fight all at once. It's quite likely in my eyes that even if they let the Duel conclude, Zarc's Field will remain active, and anyone who attempts to challenge him afterwards will be forced through the same handicap. He's engaged in a Battle Royale with the ENTIRE WORLD, not just one or two Duelists. Refuse to fight? He'll kill you. Fight? He'll defeat you. He doesn't care how many opponents there are. He just wants to Duel, and defeat everyone. He seems delighted by new Duelists intruding, because it's more opponents that can entertain him, while confirming that he's the strongest Duelist. Usually, Duelists intruding into a Battle Royale can turn the tide to a ludicrous extent, because they get 5 cards in their hand, at the cost of lower LP. I also note that Zarc never attacks the intruders. It's possible that, by Battle Royale rules, he CAN'T. After all, Kaito/Shun arrived the turn he was Summoned, but he didn't send his Supreme King monsters at them. Jack and Gogenzaka arrived during his Battle Phase, but he didn't have his overlord dragon attack them. So, tl;dr - Just assume that Zarc is in a constant Battle Royale with the entire world, so merely letting a Duel conclude without "intruding" will not reset his Field or LP. He IS the dragon, after all, it's not just a monster he Summoned during a Duel; that's only the technical reason why they can actually fight against it. Also remember, immediately after reviving, Zarc pursued an opponent to face, and when no one initially took him up on the offer, he attempted to kill everyone in his path. Seriously, it's either Duel by his rules and possibly manage to turn the tides, or leave innocents to suffer or die because you don't want to take the intrusion penalty.

King K. Azo Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 [spoiler=Because]It only would've destroyed the Scales and the Equip Spell, and Zarc could've chained SKSD - Clear Wing to it.But really, this duel was a total mess.

Why don't they just let Zarc win the duel, and start a new one? It would dismiss the Zarc Dragon and reset the playing field to give the next pair a better shot, or, even better idea, EVERYONE ATTACK ZARC AT ONCE. [spoiler=Reasons]Also think about it. When Zarc was first summoned, it destroyed all monsters and burnt Edo and Sora to death. Zarc's deck is obviously meant to turbo out Zarc, so... yeah, if they started a new duel, he can just end each and every duel with an OTK. [spoiler=Thoughts]Fair thee well, Jack and Gongenzaka. You two were the best part of this show. So of course instead of using two of the most influential people in Yuya's life in the last round and bringing the Yu-boys back to their senses, they'll use Reiji because... screw you, Reiji.I do admit, I love Gongenzaka survived because of all his monster's low attack. If he was playing competently, he could have at least taken out Clear Wing. You see, when he swarmed the field, he could attack with Swordsman. Zarc would either negate it with Clear Wing and burn Gongenazaka for 1000. Great, well, now either Clear is at 0 or used up the effect. So you can attack away with the monsters. Granted, the scales are there, but he could have gotten rid of it.The Zarc duels are honestly not impressing me. It's just one broken card after another. Why can't we have another villian like Bakura. He was interesting and had a different playstyle then 'OP Boss, lol'. How did Crow come back? That was... random.

~British Soul~ Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 [spoiler=Thoughts on 138 RAW]- It seemed that Jack/Gongenzaka were trying to remind Yuya of entertainment dueling, to no avail ofc (remember this is RAW thoughts)- Not surprised we didn't see the Crimson Dragon when Jack double-tuned but when he was doing the summoning, it looked like Yusei doing an Accel Synchro in 5Ds.- Ofc as the duel goes on, the dimensional intergration is progressing as parts of the Synchro Dimension appear in the main area now including where Mr Enjoy and the kids were- Ofc Crow mysteriously gets uncardified after his card was blown away when Gongenzaka lost, and I'm not surprised that Sawatari was given the pendant (at least we know that he's using Gongenzaka's D-Disk to duel with since Sawatari's is still busted) Before you ask; yes I am aware that the subs are already out at time of posting (I also haven't read the script either), I literally had the RAW tab up for like hours 'cuz I had other stuff to do and I never bothered refreshing. I will watch le subs in like 12 or so hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 [spoiler=138 thoughts]Well, we knew that Jack/Gongenzaka would lose, but yeah they at least tried. (Zarc's deck is broken sheet)We can ask why Jack didn't blow up everything, but he'd get negated. Would've been an option, yes, and I temporarily forgot that Tyrant could do that. Supreme King Spirit acts like that one Trap Goodwin had in 5Ds manga; oh right, Transcendental Destruction or something. Gongenzaka gives Sawatari his Disk to fight; well, that explains how he's in it, considering Crow broke it several episodes ago to save him from BB. Crow got revived b/c dimensions were merging (supposedly). Ah well, more Blackwing stuff. [spoiler=Other stuff]Objectively, we can say whether/not certain plays would've been a good idea since we have the images of the cards in front of us with the full effects written out. In-universe, the characters do not know this [and well, we too are limited on knowledge on what a good strategy would've been, since we don't know everything that isn't shown] Going all-out against Zarc with every relevant character would not be in their best interest, considering his own effect would result in mass OTKs. (Remember Starve Venom against 5 You Show Duelists; 13,000 ATK and multiple shots, and we know all of them got creamed hard). Right now, 2 on 1 is the only option (but yeah, everyone who enters gets half their LP removed). tl;dr, Zarc is OP'd as hell and anyone who tries to stop him gets their LP halved because of the intrusion thing (why wasn't this removed after the Maiami Championships again?) and because he conveniently has a counter for everything (bar Rituals)*. * speaking of which, it'd probably help if there were a Ritual user on their end (Mieru comes to mind, but as-is, her Deck will fail against Zarc).

In-universe, the characters do not know this [and well, we too are limited on knowledge on what a good strategy would've been, since we don't know everything that isn't shown] While that may be the case, I think it was still executive jiggery-pokery that led to Zarc being untouched. For one thing, there's nothing in TRDA's text or in Vision Synchro's text that stops TRDA from activating or negating its effects. Zarc is unaffected by TRDA, but nothing stops it from popping literally everything else. We can also assume that Jack Atlas knows what his own cards do, or worst case scenario, can read his own cards. The gamestate was set up perfectly for him to nuke (Gongenzaka was pretty much ready to go/would be able to save one of his monsters and one of Jack's, Zarc had no set cards, Clear Wing and Dragon!Zarc). There was no good strategic reason to not nuke. The only point I could give to that is that Jack might not know what the pendulum scales do, but that would be solved by a simple nuke anyway. It's not like characters haven't made a massive explosion type effect happen, only for their opponent to appear entirely unaffected/with an entirely new monster as the smoke clears. I guess the point is that the writers have whipped out the idiot ball and I'm not happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~British Soul~ Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 [spoiler=Reaction]With Genghis' already known evo being revealed as a promo yesterday, I shouldn't be surprised the other two ED guys he first used get evos too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akron The Void Lord Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Pretty sure it was stated in an earlier episode that Zarc makes his cards immune to the effects of Fusion, Synchro and Xyz monsters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconus297 Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Yup. Zarc's effect is to make his monsters all unaffected by his opponents' Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz monster effects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~British Soul~ Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 [spoiler=Thoughts on 138 subbed]- So Gongenzaka's strategy was to protect Jack's ace whilst the latter uses it to carve a path to Yuya.- Can't remember if Jack mentioned the Crimson Dragon in the first instance (think he did), but he mentions it when summoning Tyrant which is neat.- Upon his defeat, Gongenzaka told Sawatari that Zarc responded to the word entertainment believing Yuya is trying to call back.- When Sora wondered how Crow was uncardified, Edo recounts "w=When the Utopia is created, everyone will play there"- Reira mentions via Ray that Leo is trying to split the worlds again using the four cards [spoiler=Thoughts on 139 RAW]- Looks like the dimensional integration is nearing closer to completion.- Oh boy, Sawatari and Crow lost... to the surprise of no one.- SKS Odd-Eyes looks pretty damn good tbph.- Didn't expect Leo to join in the duel (he even had those four cards), but he swiftly lost doing like funk all after being cockblocked.- We then see Reiji join the duel, whilst Reira is near the machine where Ray is located.

King K. Azo Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 [spoiler=139 Thoughts]Well, this episode was great. It made me cheer for Sawatari and Crow, two characters I hate with a passion. In fact, Sawatari was competent for the first time since Yosenjus. And Crow actually managed to hurt Zarc, so yay!This episode was the worst because Zarc is bullshit and more Reiji wanking.
