Catterjune Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Ghostrick_SuccubusAllegedly they're changing the name to Ghostrick SoCuteBoss... So discuss this fucking card, discuss Ghostricks in general, discuss unnecessary name changes and censorship, discuss how much you love Pika, discuss how much you hate Pika, IDC.

Blake Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 The name change is hilarious and is probably the best pun the TCG has done, especially in a game aimed at children in western countries. It retains the pun for older fans, but doesn't spell out SEX DEMON for younger ones. IDK why anyone would bitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeppeli Gyro Supreme Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 We already have a monster called Succubus Knight, so it shouldn't be due to a censor. Unless they decided upon it because it depicts someone younger, though succubi aren't always considered as sex demons, or even always demons of lust.

In Legend of Blue-Eyes =| Malevolent Nuzzler has cleavage back then, it's hardly an argument. Especially in a "cute" deck like Ghostrick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildflame Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Sure it's kinda clever, but meh, I don't especially like it. Card is ok. Would be better if the Level 2 Ghostricks were actually playable. Or if it had Alucard and Dullahan's floatiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or if it had Alucard and Dullahan's floatiness. Depending on the build, Catgirl and Doll, at least, are... But I believe it's fits the best in decks that spam lots of level 2 monsters, so that you can have 3 of her on the field at the same time, simultaneously making a lock, destroying 3 monsters per turn with up to 4200 ATK AND, eventually, completely shutting off your opponent's Monster Zones. I just wish we had a Level 2 Generic Summoner like we have for Level 3 and 1... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Found a source(Not that it matters)We already have a monster called Succubus Knight-That was early 2000s. People still thought it was the 90s; Shoosh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 I actually don't really even like the art of Succubus. The name change is humorous...but I don't like it because I don't personally like the art or think it's cute. Ghostricks seem to not have any idea what theme they're using. Most of their best stuff is Level 1 or Level 3, so having a Rank 2 thrown in there is sort of random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newhat Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 In Ghostricks this is nigh-impossible to make. In generic 2 this is horribly inefficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of their best stuff is Level 1 or Level 3, so having a Rank 2 thrown in there is sort of random. Not really random, since they already have 2 Xyz to represent both the Zombies (Level 3) and the Fiends (Level 1), so it's logical they'd eventually make one representing the Spellcasters (Level 2). In Ghostricks this is nigh-impossible to make. In generic 2 this is horribly inefficient. As I said, it's better in multiples. So, while bringing out only of them might not be a good idea, 2 or 3 of those together are simply astonishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultravires Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 #1 deck this is gonna see use in is Lancer Frogs. Dullahan off a Jackfrost and Treeborn, this off Ronins, decrease and pop or whatever. Makes for a lot more retarded OTK potential alongside Phoenix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, while bringing out only of them might not be a good idea, 2 or 3 of those together are simply astonishing. With 4 Level 2 monsters, you can make two Succubus and pop 2 minor monsters (or one protected Yamato), then swing for 2000. With 6 Level 2 monsters, you can make 3 Succubus and wipe their field, then swing for 3000. Or you could make Dark Mist, or Gachi and Kappa, and simply run those monsters over while not being a sitting duck next turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 I think the name change is clever and apt. People who point to Succubus Knight don't seem to understand that Konami is trying to target a broader market and get younger people interested in playing than it was back then, so of course censorship is going to be more of an issue (especially as highlighted in a 'cute' deck that would be attractive to younger players and with a seemingly younger girl in the artwork). But it is a witty name change. Let's be honest; it could have been a lot worse and more generic and had no hint to Succubus at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newhat Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Did not notice the push lock. Pretty sure this K-On-ass Deck is not targeted at "younger" players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultravires Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Did not notice the push lock. Pretty sure this K-On-ass Deck is not targeted at "younger" players Definitely marketed toward those mouth-breathing aspies who sit at the far back table after scrubbing at regionals complaining about meta while they play Madolche and Cloudians.

玄魔の王 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 With 4 Level 2 monsters, you can make two Succubus and pop 2 minor monsters (or one protected Yamato), then swing for 2000. With 6 Level 2 monsters, you can make 3 Succubus and wipe their field, then swing for 3000. ITT: 1400x2=2000 and 1400x2=3000. Bravo sir.Or you could make Dark Mist, or Gachi and Kappa, and simply run those monsters over while not being a sitting duck next turn. ITT: running monsters over by battle is better than popping monsters then swinging for much higher damage. Also, Dark Mist is apparently run.
