「tea.leaf」 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 I remember when everyone used to run three of these per deck. I'm basically talking about all those cards that kills a (read: ONE) monster when your opponent attacks. What happened all of a sudden to make them go away? I never really figured that out...

Tickle Me Emo Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 lol I was just about to post the same exact thing. Personally the reason I stopped running them is simply because I cant fit them, but they are still good cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

「tea.leaf」 Posted June 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 ^ Harder to get. Besides, you don't see anyone running them in 3's either. I'ma go change the topic title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fh-Fh Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I run retsu. Mirror can't always be there. Besides, DGOTK doesn't always have a monster out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Dimensional Prison is the way to go now, since the banning of D-Fusion and Limiting of ROTDD. Before, Sak and Dimen were neck and neck due to this They will be used a lot more in the near future i reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

「tea.leaf」 Posted June 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 How are these not chain-able? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ P O L A R I S ~ Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 They aren't chainable since they can only be activated in response to attacks, they'd be chainable if they could be activated in response to effects/any time you want. That's why people liked Raigeki Break, Threatening Roar, Waboku, Recklkess Greed, Legacy of Yata, Jar of Greead, etc. These cards are a little slow since they aren't chainable and can't activate if they get destroyed.

shadowferret Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I've never had a Mirror Force until a week ago... I don't use it defensively, but offensively, which is the way to do it, I guess.Never had a Dimensional Prison, and I used to run Sakuretsu in multiples of 3. Of course, that was a deck that focused on destroying all of my opponent's cards, then doing whatever damage I could do.The point is, there are better cards, both offensively and defensively. When your opponent has 3 big hitters out there, and you have one Sakuretsu, it helps, but not much.Besides, the point has been brought up that they can only be activated at extremely specific times.SImply put, they're obsolete compared to the other cards that have come out. Personally, the reason I don't use these anymore is because I enjoy having my opponent swarm and lock himself into the field while I do my own damage, either effect or Direct Attacks.
