Started buying cards online. I'm thinking of attending locals in my city from time to time. Man the mailman is gonna be confused with so many packages sent to me.
Received the first two yesterday. First one was my boi scarright, which is cool. The second was magical... something.
On the bad side, I asked for magical abductor, please.
On the bright side, the guy apologized for mixing up the two and has is sending the correct cards ASAP and insists that I keep the other three. Soooooooooo yay free magical somethings.

Role Model
"Magical Something" I can't get Rata's voice out of my head for that. I still can't believe they named something that.
The sad, REAL American dichotomy

They won't, trust me.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

speaking from experience ?
"when you stare too long into the abyss, Xehanort takes advantage of the distraction to break into your house and steal all your shit."
I cannot wait for the archetype based on that, with cards such as "Magical Thingy" "Magical Huhhh?" "Magical Dohicky" and the boss monster "That Magical Thing Over There".

x2 I've done work delivering packages, and we generally don't care about what you get unless you constantly buy heavy furniture.

Dang Needlefiber killed Bulb.
It's the Japanese Firewall Dragon.
Where there's life, there's hope.
Siiiiiiiiiiiip
I don't think it's entirely on Needlefiber alone. It makes Denglong harder to get out(hence it moving up), it makes it harder to use D-Rulers for anything strong(like Omega or other useful Synchros within the meta/situation), and it stops a mill option. Steam The Cloak feels mainly Needlefiber, but GUB always had issues. Its "cost" can help a lot of decks alone. That mill can matter. This also meant moving up Snow is easier(which is at the same number as Grass there).
Even then, people overused Needlefiber and the rest. Fiber was always constantly used at 2. This feels like trying to remove extremely easy link spam as is. Dandylion's ban is sure to do a hefty job of weakening Link spam too. Same with Firewall's on its own. I wouldn't be surprised if Scapegoat at least sees a limit. Possibly more at some point. They left Grinder at 1, but the lack of a normal summon and Firewall's ban still helps keep it in check. Though to be fair, it hasn't seen much play. I'm just glad Good Link Stuff is dead there. They also destroyed Gouki hard. Way harder than the TCG. A nice hit to Trickstar too.
...It's weird having so many websites and no way to properly display now, lol.

Personal Spoofing is a hilariously dumb card name.

Like reflections in the glass!
I'm a little surprised they hit a card that hasen't been in the TCG yet.
Mad Archivist
Can someone explain to me the ban of dark matter dragon ? cause I know it's source of an FTK but I don't get how.

Welp, my magical abductors arrived, and comes with a free darkwurm and a supreme king gate zero.
Reality itself is telling me to go back and play mag pens again. Damn.

You could use it to fill the GY to help summon Tempest. But it also lets you get a giant monster out on the field to use Gandora-X's nuke ability to do massive damage. Dark Matter Dragon also banishes some of your opponent's deck and attacks two monsters with a massive attack of 4000. So you're already guaranteed 4k. Tempest has 2400 attack. That's 6400. You only need 1600 more, which DMD likely dealt.
While the OTK is possible using Dragon Ravine to get Tempest in the GY, the above factors make DMD the strongest part of it. I don't know the full details beyond this part, though. Gandora-X may become problematic, but DMD was always an issue due to filling the GY and having the ability to guarantee a pretty decent amount of damage, even against strong bosses due to its massive attack stat.

okay, thanks for the explanation.
Also, holy shit god eyes dragon is shit.

Sorry for constant double post but holy shit the guys at cardmarket are no kidding. Everyone seems to try to one up each other at making the package as undamageable as possible. I think the best one so far is the guy who put the card in a sleeve, in a sleeve, and then adhesive taped the whole thing to a piece of solid cardboard on the four sides. FOR A SINGLE COPY OF UNEXPECTED DAI.
Can't wait to see what the madmen are gonna invent when I order cards that actually cost money like electrumite or rescue rabbit. To say nothing of things like borrel savage or dankness metal.
Also got free cards with my copies of goblindbergh. Nothing worth getting up late in the night but hey, not gonna complain.

"when you stare too long into the abyss, Xehanort takes advantage of the distraction to break into your house and steal all your shit."
The cards will come each in an individual cushioned iron case.
Toploaders, probably
My standard is a sleeve (cheaper standard than the ones I actually use to play), bit of paper so the tape can't touch the card and a bit of cardboard. The post can be pretty rough (and many of these are being sent as one single card, sometimes internationally) so it kind of makes sense to package them well. No more than 3 per sleeve, and more valuable ones may get double-sleved
I'm still kind of surprised by just how many people will buy just one card, I normally try to find a few I want from the same seller (though I get it doesn't always work). Like, 1 Sanctuary in the Sky from the UK to France, really? The cost was 99% shipping.

I know, right ? The shipping costs are a joke. I tried checking what it's gonna look like for pendulum mash and they're gonna cost me literally as much as the cards themselves. And that's still half the price it would have cost me buy yang zings for a friend. One hundred and sixty bucks my ass.
I didn't tried to math my way very hard into it, but limiting myself to posts in france might have complicated things more than needed though. I thought it would be the easiest way to cut down on shipping costs, but grouped purchases might have been smarter.

God-Eyes might suck, but at least Utopia Double's pretty good.
Mad Archivist
-so a secret rare is a 1/23 chance per pack to pull
-Gift a friend a box(24) of code of the duelist cause hey I heard you liked trickstars so heres's some.
-Opens the four first boosters
-Opens topologic bomber dragon and Rescue ferret, both secret rares
EXCUSE ME WHAT THE FUCK.
The rest of the box was pretty mundane, and we only pulled light stage, the trickstar link and lilybell buuuuuut that's still pretty good. Had a good laugh at least.

So, the new World Legacy / Knightmare stuff.
Anyone still wanna dunk on me for my grand unifying storyline theories involving Tierra seeding the World Legacy World for her grand return?
Because Astro Knightmare Idlee looks almost exactly like Tierra at this point, with the wings, and her hair resembles Shaddoll Core.

wait what the fuck where's the new lore ?
edit : HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH THEY MADE AN EXTRA LINK BREAKER.
that's reverse iblee ! that's the best fucking thing ever !
"send to the graveyard" Sorry dear knightmares we can't hear you over the sound of us bypassing your entire protection.
oh god I can smell astro idlee being the next iblee teched everywhere.
holy shit yusaku's new ace is literally firewall xceed dragon. So that's the counterpart to synchro borrel savage dragon, huh ?
As for your theory, m'eh. i can see the resemblance with shadoll core, but not with tierra. Unless you're talking about infernoid tierra, in which case I guess it borrows the body form, yeah. I'm kinda curious of what they'll do with that. Zefra metaltron is still something after all.

The wings are more Sophia TBH, but the Duality Motif is lacking in Idlee regardless.
More interesting is that the new WL monsters are Generic level 9 support.
Wow, what's their motive in doing that, I wonder?
