Bunter Dwayne Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Ok, so we all know that Konami are just semi-ing it for the money. But let's just discuss the card. EDIT: This was a discussion about Gold Sarcophagus, but in the wrong section. Sorry, and please move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysty Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Lets you get any card from your Deck 2 turns into the future. This thins out your Deck and makes it more likely that you'll draw any other card in your deck, but makes it less likely that you'll draw a copy of the removed card. It could be used to remove crap from your Deck so you'll be more likely to topdeck something later or get something that you will need two turns from now into your hand two turns later. Either way, it's a great card if you can last 2 turns. Lightsworn can still end you very fast, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeg Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 It's good in a stall for fetching keys, but against otk its pretty much gonna fail if the otk works and does it quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

werewolfjedi Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 the only bad part about the card is that you put the removed from play face up, which means that they know what is coming. but being unstoppable after being played is good.

Tabris Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 They're doin' it half-right. Full limitation I prefer, but as Konami's composed of corporate clowns who think we're stupid (and for the most part, we are) and thus entertain us with their antics...

Psycho Shocker Android Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 This should be at 3 in a good format with no cards to abuse there's nothing wrong in waiting 2 turns to get a card of your choice. It also forces you to make skilled decision as you have to plan 2 turns ahead. For the moment though it's obvious they brought that back to 2 for the money lol.

Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Deserves to be at 3 on a good list. A 2 turn wait is in no way a problem. Even if it means you get a card of your choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it means you get a card of your choice.I have to disagree. In a good format things will be a lot slower, and because of this a two turn wait really isn't much. Even with the ban worthy win conditions banned decks still have them (win conditions) and with this you can get that condition extremely fast, too fast to be permissible. While it is one of the more borderline ban worthy cards, I think the game would be better off with it at 0. As is stands now, I think the meta may still be a bit too fast for this to have much of an impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
power dude Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Ive been brain storming and Ive think Ive got a good combo combine gold Sarcophagus with spell reclamation in an exodia deck to remove from play all five pieces of exodia and in 2 turns you win because of gold sarcophagus effect.

Spell Reclamation doesn't work that way; otherwise, it would have been banned in a heartbeat. Check the rulings, advised Crab Helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I really don't see how everyone thinks this card is the best card in the freaking world I mean, its a good card and all, but I think its way overhyped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your opponent doesn't see the card. In a slow format, that is fast. Reinforcements is limited to Level 4 or lower Warrior-Types. This takes anything. It isn't that the conditions are unacceptable, it is how fast they can be obtained. Tele DAD is dead, so how can they play this? The reason this might not see much play is because the format is still too fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
