New Yugioh Booster Pack: Absolute Powerforce

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

In a few weeks, the new Absolute Powerforce, Yugioh booster pack is being released. I think this booster pack will be even more spectacular then Stardust Overdrive because it marks the release of Majestic Red Dragon, Jack Atlas’ ace monster. Absolute Powerforce also features cards from Goodwin, Misty, Kiryu, as well as Carly. However, there two cards I am particularly excited about.

The Sun Dragon Inti and the Moonlight Dragon Quilla will be two awesome monsters to duel with. While they are some what difficult to summon, each one has an ability that resurrects one another from the graveyard. Their other effects are awesome too. When a monster destroys Sun Dragon Inti, the attacking monster will be destroyed and the controller loses half the monster’s attack points. That means your foe will lose at least 1500 life points. When Moonlight Dragon Quilla is attacked, you gain half the attacking monster’s attack points. That too, is at least 1500 life points. These two monsters could cause havoc on the field if they were played in the same duel.

The Absolute Powerforce is really just a continuation of Stardust Overdrive. It has similar card, similar season of Yugioh 5Ds, and there aren’t cards from new characters. However, there are some benefits of buying the Absolute Powerforce booster pack instead of Stardust Overdrive.

1. You can get Sun Dragon Inti, Moonlight Dragon Quilla, and the monsters required to play them are in the pack.

2. Majestic Red Dragon (which I think is superior to Majestic Star Dragon) is available.

3. New tuners and a new addition to Yussei’s junk fighters, Drill Warrior, is available.

So it really doesn’t matter what pack you buy. Either way you have chosen a great booster pack.

The #1 Yugioh Elemental Hero

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

I don’t think I will have any objections in this choice, the number one Yugioh Elemental Hero is… Elemental Hero Divine Neos!

yugioh-elemental-hero-divine-neos

Sure, it might not be your best monster in terms of stats, but it has one of the, if not, the best effect out of all the Elemental Heroes! To play Divine Neos, you must fuse together at least one Neos monster, a Neo spacian, and an Elemental Hero, as well as two other monsters (can only be an Evil Hero, a Destiny Hero, a Elemental Hero, a Neo Spacian, or Elemental Hero Neos). Okay, okay, it sounds hard to play doesn’t it? However, summoning Elemental Hero Divine Neos is worth it.

While Divine Neos is on the field, you can remove from your graveyard one Evil, Destiny, Elemental Heroes, a Neos monster, or a Neo Spacian monster. Elemental Hero Divine Neos gains 500 attack AND that monsters ability. That is crazy. You can remove from play one of those awesomee monsters, and Divine Neos would be amazing! You could give Divine Neos Magma Neos’s effect and it would gain 400 attack points for every card one the field, or you could give Divine Neos Destiny Hero Dogma’s effect and half your opponent’s life points the next turn! Possibilities, possiblities! This is what makes Elemental Hero Divine Neos, hands down, the strongest Elemental Hero!

Yugioh Top 5 Elemental Heroes Part 2

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

I hope you guys liked part 1 of the Top Five Elemental Heroes! Here in part two, the Elemental Heroes listed will be a stronger than the previous two in terms of strength, efficiency, and abilities.

3. Elemental Hero Magma Neos

Magma Neos has some of the highest stats of all the Elemental Heroes as well two awesome effects (if used right). Those, plus its cool image, makes him one of the greatest Elemental Heroes in Yugioh. Elemental Hero Magma Neos gains 400 attack points for every card on the field. It could easily be the strongest monster on the field with that effect! Suppose you and your foe have a monster one the field, as well as two spells/traps each, then Magma Neos would have 6200 attack points! Like many Neos fusions, Magma Neos goes back to your Extra deck during the end phase. When it does this, you can return all cards on the field to their owner’s hand. That effect, however, could prove to be fatal to your opponent if activated right. You can activate Neos Space/Instant Neos Space and equip it to Magma Neos. Then, during your opponent’s turn you destroy your Neo Space/Instant Neos Space to have Magma Neos go back to your Extra deck. Everyone’s cards would go back to their hands and afterwards, during your turn, your foe would be wide open for a direct attack. Pretty sweet usage of a vice!

2. Elemental Hero Storm Neos

Elemental Hero Storm Neos probably tops the list of Elemental Heroes in terms of efficiency. It can destroy all spell and trap cards on the field! That seems you can completely destroy your opponents defenses and destroy them! This effect goes great with Yubel and Yubel the Ultimate Nightmare since their only weaknesses are spells and traps. When it goes back into your Extra deck, all cards on the field are returned to the owner’s deck. You can do the combo with Neo Space/Instant Neo Space (that I listed in Magma Neos’s ability) with this Elemental Hero Storm Neos as well. Wide open attacks, eradication of spells and traps? Elemental Hero Storm Neos could obliterate your opponent fast!

Well that wraps up part 2 of the Top 5 Elemental Heroes in Yugioh! Again, if you guys have any objections, send me your top 5 Elemental Heroes as a comment!

Yugioh Top 5 Elemental Heroes Part 1

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

Top Ten/Five lists are very fun to create. With the Yugioh warrior monster craze going on, I thought that I’d create a five list of my favorite warriors — the Elemental Heroes. There are many Elemental Heroes for duelists to collect, but which ones are the best? Which ones are strong, but easy to play? Which Elemental Heroes are the most effecient? Here is my answer to all these questions.

5. Elemental Hero Knopse

Yeah he’s a plant, but he is still an Elemental Hero. Sure he might not be the strongest Elemental Hero, but he sure is effecient, and his effect makes him even meaner ! As long as there is another Elemental Hero on the field, Knopse cannot be selected as an attack target and he can attack your foe directly! Not bad right? However, it also agains 100 atk points every time it inflicts battle damage! If you attack directly with Knopse four times, Knopse will have a decent 1000 atk and your opponent would have lost… 600+700+800+900… 3000 life points! An army (three) of this little guy would be even more dangerous!

yugioh-elemental-hero-knopse

4. Elemental Hero Plasma Vice

Youch! 2600 atk points? Dealing with Elemental Hero Plasma Vice would be tough for your opponent! If Elemental Plasma Vice battles a monster with a defense lower than his attack points, your foe loses life points equal to the difference. That could be pretty bad for your foe if Plasma Vice fights a low level monster! Also, by discarding a card from your hand, Elemental Hero Plasma Vice can destroy one monster on the field who is in attack position. F.H.G Dragon and D.M.K (they’re both definitely going to be in attack position, if not, use Block Defense) seem pretty easy to beat now don’t they? So to sum it up for people who are going “what?”, “why?”, Plasma Vice is on this list because he is:

Much easier to play than other Elemental Hero fusion monsters such as the Neos fusions and Elemental Hero Tempest.
Has the ability to change the course of the duel through his stats and effect (mostly).
It’s pretty easy to acquire (pretty cheap too!).

elemental-hero-plasma-vice

That concludes part 1 of the Top 5 List of Elemental Heroes. If you anyone disagrees with my first two selections feel free to write what you would picked instead on the comment box.

Yugioh 5Ds - Turbo Duel Grand Prix

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009

The first two seasons of Yugioh-5Ds were very suspensful and exciting; duelists used a lot of new cards and the whole idea of syncro monsters were introduced. Though I doubt it will be as good as the second season, Yugioh 5Ds third arc has started to get more and more excting due to the Turbo Duel Grand Prix. There are many filler episodes in the beginning of this arc (episodes that don’t have anything to do with the main storyline) but I would estimate by the 80th episode of 5Ds, the tournament should start.

In many forums, writers guessed that episode 70 would be the start of another Spirit World storyline. I think that this is true, because in that episode Luna goes into a mystical jungle and dissapears, where else could she have gone? In the following episode, Yussei Captured!, I suspect that Yussei will be dragged into the Spirit World from the forest, to assist Luna on her mission. However, after the terrible previous, Sprit World mini, (where Luna frees Ancient Fairy Dragon) I doubt this one will be any better.

Beside the Spirit World thing, I am really excited to see the following episodes of the third season. We all know that Yussei, Crow, Jack, and a lot of other great turbo duelists will be competing in that tournament. There will be many intersting duels in that Grand Prix, which reminds me of the Kaiba Corp Grand Chapionship from the original Yu-Gi-Oh. I hope to see Future Kaiba at the Grand Prix, as well as a Future Yugi and Pegasus.

The Conclusion To the Signer Controversy

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

Crow with his tail mark

After reading tons of responses to my two “Who is the Fifth Signer” articles and reading multiple pages of Yugioh wiki, I have come to the conclusion that Crow is definitley a the fifth signer! This was my first guess (read here) but it was neglected so much I thought it wasn’t true! Apparently he inherits this role after Goodwin loses the duel against Yussei and dies.

Though Crow mainly uses all winged-beasts, you can’t forget that all Yussei ever uses are warriors, and Jack uses fiends, Akiza uses plants, and Luna uses fairies. Yet, they all have a dragon? So how was Crow any different. Plus, besides the fifth dragon, Crow has another dragon too! It debuted in his first, third arc duel, and it was called Winger Dragon or something. He was more close to being a signer than anyone else!

Even though he is a Signer, I think Crow has the worst variety of cards. Yussei has multiple Synchros, Jack has different fiends, Akiza has tons of plant tokens, and Luna’s deck is any monster who wishes to serve her (she could have an Egyptian God for all we know). However Crow has the same old monsters in all his duels. Armor Master, Bora the Spear, Silver Wind, etc… I wish he gets newer cards and that the Blackwings get an upgrade.

Yugioh 5Ds: The Third Arch, (Featuring a Contest)

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Before I start my post for today, I would like to say that Yugiohblog.com will start having contests where you can win rare cards. If a post has a contest, then on my title I will have added (Featuring a Contest). This will be the first contest I am doing. All you guys have to do is write a one paragraph story about your favorite Yugioh card and why you like it. The winner will recieve a mint edition, secret rare, Rainbow Dark Dragon. Good luck!

I have talked about the Dark Signer arc many times in this blog, and I am sure many people have already found who the Fifth Signer due to some spoiler comments. However, on July 1, Japan will be airing the 65th episode of Yugioh 5Ds, which is also the beginning of Yugioh 5Ds’ third arc. The third arc is set 6 months after Yussei defeats Goodwin and Rudger and 6 months before the upcoming Turbo Duel Grand Prix.

Our main character Yussei, along with his friends, Rally, Blitz, Gnervin, and Crow have all moved to New Domino City. For the grand prix, Yussei, Crow, and Jack have made major modifications to there duel runners. However, there were rumors going around that there was a duelist who sabotages duel runners in order to the parts of the duel runners to his own. The rumors are confirmed when Lazar asks for the help of Yussei to stop this duelist who is known by ‘Ghost’. Lazar tells Yussei that Ghost hides in the outskirts of New Domino and uses fiend and zombie. Yussei drives off and the episode ends.

That’s all of the main things that happen with Yussei in that episode but I hope that everyone who was turned into a dark signer by revenge (Demak, Carly, Kiryu, and Misty) all come back to life. Because before they saught revenge, they were all friends of the signers. Yugio wikia says that after Ghost is defeated, the third arc will be all filler episodes leading up to the Grand Prix, which will be part of the third and fourth arcs. The third arc’s not going to be as thrilling as the Dark Signer arc, but I hope it will lead to newer monsters!

New 5Ds Characters

Saturday, June 6th, 2009

Until the Dark Signer arc started, Yugioh 5Ds has had the same old characters. Yussei, Jack, (recently) Akiza, Goodwin, Luna, Leo, etc… However, with the start of the Dark Signer arc, not only will you meet the Dark Signers, but also some new duelists. The Dark Signer arc gives some insight on Yusse’s past, how the Satellite and New Domino City came to be, and the you will meet the 5th signer. In this post, I just want my readers to learn about these new characters.

Crow: Debuted Episode 30

Crow has been Yussei’s and Jack Atlas’ friend since they were kids. Jack, Yussei, Kiryu, and Crow formed a duel monsters group in the Satellite and were big shot duelists in the Satellite. However, after Kiryu was taken away by Sector Security, the whole group disbanded and Crow left to go his own path. Before reuniting with Yussei, Crow set up a duel camp near the Daedulus Bridge and taught kids how to duel using cards he stole from sector security.

Kalin Kiryu: Debuted Episode 27

Kalin was the leader of the Duel Monsters group consisting of himself, Crow, Yussei, and Jack. He was (and still is) a very agressive person. After a fight broke out between him and a rival gang member, Crow tried to stop Kalin from hurting anyone and he punched Crow on the face. Crow and Jack disbanded from the group but rejoined later. Kalin seemed to be nice at heart though because he has saved his teammates from facing many plights. Kalin is taken to jail by a security guard and is beaten to death. When he turns into a dark signer he goes to duel Yussei and (technically) wins. When he duels Yussei the second time, Yussei defeats him and Kalin tells Yussei that besides revenge, he wanted Team Satisfaction to have a last duel.

Rudger: Debuted Episode 27

Rudger used to be a scientist who worked for Mr. Fudo in their Enerdy facility. He and his brother Goodwin conducted the enerdy used now for turbo duels. Rudger purposley overloaded the Enerdy system which caused the Zero Reverse effect so he could die and be reborn as a Dark Signer. Originally, Rudger had told Goodwin to give the 4 dragon (Rudger having the fifth) to the four signers to defeat the leader of the Dark Signers. Ironically, he turns out to the be the leader. Rudger has dueled Yussei once, through the body of Rally. In the recent episodes, Rudger and Yussei have confronted each other.

Well, I hope you’ve learned some important facts about three very important 5Ds characters. Maybe these descriptions can help you conclude or start new theories you have about the scenarios taking place in these new episodes.

Seriously, Who Really Is the 5th Signer? (It’s Not Goodwin!?!?)

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

A couple of months ago I wrote a post inquiring about who the 5th signer was, (read here). I received many comments from my readers saying that Goodwin was the 5th signer. For some time I believed that to be true. However I have been reading some rumors that are changing my mind. People are writing that Goodwin is actually pretending to be the 5th signer. Goodwin is a dark singer who has a winged-beast Earthbound God and is apparently waiting to meet the King of the Underworld!

At first this might seem bogus to you but I’ve recieved some comments stating this and Yu-Gi-Oh!wiki is also saying that in episode 62 of Yugioh 5Ds, Rex Goodwin reveals that he is a Dark Signer and he that he is waiting for the King Of the Underworld. It also said he was keeping the actuall 5th signer hostage. Although these rumors have stymied me about the person known as the ‘5th signer’, it has also given me some hope. Think about it, if Goodwin is a Dark Signer, and is sacrificing the 5th Signer then he would ambush them during an episode or two before episode 62. I am positive that the person he kidnapps will be the 5th signer.

Now, because of this information, I continue to think Crow or Leo could still be signer(s). However, I have added another prediction to my list. I think Mina could be the 5th signer because she is so close to Goodwin (his secretary) that he could kidnap her at any time. Plus, why would he hire her if he had no use for her. I know Mina “looks after” Jack but I’m sure Goodwin knows that Jack can remain fine without Mina. Even though I have predictions, I am really confused about this topic! I feel I missed a detail or two… anyways if any of you have any clue as to what’s going on with the 5th singer, write as a comment.

Aquiring New Yugioh Cards Through Trading and Other Methods

Sunday, April 12th, 2009

Like most duelists, my first deck was a starter deck. I was so excited to have that deck and I was ready to pummel my friends in duel. But sometimes I lost duels. This post will talk how one can improve their deck to be better than their previous one and I will be using common examples I found on the internet as well as my own dueling experiances.

When I was about 10, I entered a Regional Tournament. The night before I had bought a Raviel, The Lord of Phantasms tin deck and had stuffed my deck full of strong level 5-10 monsters. Yeah I had a few level 4 and 3 monsters and some weak spells and traps but I thought I was going to win with only strong monsters. I lost all four of my matches and was elimenated from the tournament. Now what I want to share with young duelists is to balance your deck. The cards I had in my deck only had high attack, nothing. Suupose I had threw in a Negate Attack and replaced some of my high level monsters with lower level monsters that had effects relating to my deck theme. I might have won some duels.

Another common mistake people make is that they only rely on specific type of cards. My friend who I always duel against only uses fiend monsters. He never accepts strong cards from me unless their fiends. Here is the good side about this type of play: You can make deadly combos, the bad side: You’re limiting yourself to a specific type of cards and if you lose duels your not looking to change your monsters or your combos.

Both of these examples show how key it is to trade and buy cards. Go trade with your friends, people you know who have cards you like, any duelist you meet! Trading exposes you to knew cards and teaches you new strategies you’d like to use in the future. My Weaken and Destroy deck has been undefeated since 2007. Why, because I have traded and traded and exposed myself to new ideas! That is my trading is so important in dueling.

I hope all of you have learned the good that can come out of getting new Yugioh cards. You can collect cards for a special deck or one can even acquire cards just to sell them! These are some cards I would recommend you should get through trading, buying, etc:

Magic Cylinder
Scrap Metal Scare-Crow
Raigeki
Big Shield Gardna
Ghost Gardna
Rocket Warrior
Tornado
Turret Warrior
Skull Dice
Fighting Spirit
Negate Attack
Dark Armed Dragon
