The Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Duel Arena!

Thanks. As you probably already know you're in 2nd place now and I'm in 3rd...

 

Aren't Counter traps a exception?

 

That's what I thought.

 

They Are??? But...in Tag Force they weren't...

Man...and to think I just now discovered that Tag Force doesn't completely play by the rules...

But it's more accurate than Duelists Of The Roses and Forbidden Memories I can promise you.

The way it doesn't play by the rules is:

1. It allows you to have 3 Solemn Judgments in your deck.

2. Quick-Play Spells have to be set facedown before they can be activated during your opponent's turn.

3. It doesn't let you activate ANY Type of Trap Card on the turn they are set.

I think that's all.

Man...I can't believe this...I could've won that last Duel...

But I haven't actually played Yu-Gi-Oh! in real life so I guess it's not really my fault right?

This is inconceivable...I Demand a Rematch!:yelling:

EDIT: But only if I go first.

 

Solemn is not Banned/Limited, so it's fine to have 3.
And some Quick Spells actually have to be set before the activation (Not all though).
Anyway, you'd lose since you didn't counter Tremendous Fire, i mean you lost 2000 points from Ameba + 1000 from your Solemn, Tremendus Fire inflicts more 1000 and that ends the duel(Unless you where playing with 8000 points of course).

 

1. Really? I heard that Solemn Judgment was a Limited Edition Card. Even Dalk said that only one can be in a Deck.

2. Yes...I was aware of that...T_T

 

You know, i just realised that if you attacked Captain Gold and Neos you'd win.
Why you didn't?

 

Because Dalk had multiple facedowns...it would've been way too risky...Wildheart was the only one who was immune to Trap Cards...

But I gotta say I feel MUCH better knowing that Counter Trap Cards can be activated on the same turn they are set. I sure wish I'd known that sooner...

Anyway, I'd like to Duel somebody now.

 

this is how to check.
go to yugioh wikia, time in the name of the card, scroll to the bottom and looks for this:

if it says "unlimited" you can have 3. if it says "limited" you can have 1. if it says "semi-limited" you can have 2. if it says "forbidden" you cant have any.

i assumed you guys were playing traditional format anyway, since you are all using banned cards.

One thing though, i saw someone using Graceful Charity twice, which is not allowed, even in traditional format. GC is banned in regular format, cards that are banned in regular format are limited in traditional format.

also, you guys have been discarding cards from you hard, like necroshade, for no reason. you aren't allowed to discard cards unless you have a reason, for example, as a cost for lightning vortex. or unless it says so specifically on the card, like on Kuriboh.

also, i dont know what kind of crack you guys are smoking, but counter traps CANNOT be activated on the same turn they are set.

all three of those things are correct. read the rules, seriously.

 

If what you're saying is true then that means that Tag Force really WAS completely playing by the rules...

EDIT: Wait, I just remembered one way that Tag Force didn't play by the rules:

It won't let you summon monsters in face-up defense position. You can only set monsters in face-down defense position. What the heck is up with that?

Btw, You have played Yu-Gi-Oh! in real life haven't you? Just checking.

DeadHeart and Dalk have. If you have it really confuses me that you're contradicting DeadHeart and Dalk...

Oh, and the reason why I thought it was okay to discard without a card effect is because I saw Keyblade Spirit do it.

I haven't played Yu-Gi-Oh! in real life so it's not really my fault I don't know everything about it.

 

i do play yugioh in real life, and tag force is correct. you aren't allowed to summon monsters in face up defense position, unless you are special summoning them. if you want a defense position monster, it must be summoned in face-down defense position if they are normal summoned.

 

We're not using any kind of ban list or anything, so any card can be used 3 times.
And i didn't see anything about discarding cards without a effect yet, of course, i didn't check earlier duels so i'm not sure.
And not all quick plays have to be set in order to be activated, that i'm sure of.
And i also wasn't really sure about the counter trap thing, so i'll believe in you.

He's pretty much right.
And i haven't played in RL with the right rules to tell the truth(we where kids who did not have acess to the internet in a place there was no competitive yu-gi-oh games, there was no way we could know them) but i've played the DS games, and with the exception of the Life Points and Tag rules everything else is pretty much the same.

Exactly, but really, it's not like it's gonna change it a whole lot.
After all we even use our own cards, why not let summon a monster face up defense position?

 

well the reason for that rule is so effect monsters don't get abused. monsters with the most powerful effects usually have low attack, so there's supposed to be a risk when summoning them in attack position. take, for example Neo-Spacian Air Hummingbird. its an effect monster with 800 atk and 600 def. its effect is:

Once per turn, during your Main Phase, you can gain 500 Life Points for each card in your opponent's hand.


The only way that effect can be used is having it face up on the field. so if you summon it in attack position, you can use its effect, but its low atk will result in it being killed, and you losing life points on your next turn.
if you summon it in face up defense mode, you can still use the effect, but there's no risk.

so to avoid the abuse, the rules say you can only summon it in face down defense position.

but in the ends it's Yuki's decision.

 

Well...I do want to play by the actual rules as much as possible.

In the anime they summoned monsters in face-up defense position. However, The anime breaks alot of rules...

 

yeah...the anime also lets people activate traps FROM THEIR HAND during the opponents turn, which is not okay. they always face up D-mode in the anime, but that isn't allowed.

All quick plays have to be set in order to be activated during your opponents turn. that's what i meant, sorry if i said it any other way.

 

Seriously??? Man...I can't believe I missed that.

 

I am very displeased by the apparent lack of dueling taking place in this thread. =/

-Translation-

WOULD SOMEONE FREAKING DUEL ALREADY?!?/!1>!19!!!5647 D<

 

alright lets duel ryota =x

 

Thank god.

I accept. :3 You can go first if you want?

 

alright i place elemental hero clayman in defense mode and end my turn
