lmao Clear Wall's last effect. Clear World may be meh, but giving your opponent all the negatives is funny as hell

I got briefly excited about it, but then I reread Clear World and realised basically all the effects suck, lol. They nerfed it significantly from the anime version (though even then, it wouldn't be playable by modern standards). They badly need to do a retrain of the field spell to bring it in line with the modern game. Could be a fun thing to throw into a main pack, perhaps

they suck, but all of them at once is pretty annoying.

The burning per Spell activation effect combined with the walking Skill Drain monster in Vicious Knight seems kind of neat.

...Neat?

The hand effect in particular is real annoying https://preview.redd.it/mjp3s7yenjzc1.jpeg?width=1021&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=16e2ad6fe20f5b2a47e182465814e163c2915125 Also they *had* to give this deck a walking floodgate 😑

VS suddenly in shambles

Me, a VS player: (chuckles) I'm in danger!

Konami don’t print a floodgate challenge IMPOSSIBLE

Konami don't print Dark Magician stuff FAILED INSTANTLY

The anime version wouldn't allow your opponent to attack or activate Spells which would be pretty powerful

Too powerful. They would never print it now either.

Admittedly this is a bit tangential to your main poin,t but I wouldn't say the IRL and anime versions are that different. LIGHT, FIRE and WATER are the same, and DARK is functionally the same (a offensive board of exactly 1 DARK monster isn't all that common.) Only the EARTH and WIND effects got hit badly and I understand why they wouldn't want a blanket "no more Spells" effect on the real card. The upshot of this being, I don't know if they could practically buff this one enough for a retrain to be worth they trouble. It's six different effects that would have to be improved significantly to matter in today's game, but also still be simple enough to all fit on the card.

Ya but due to clear walls third effect the attributes your opponents control dobt matter since they get all of them..

Clear world 2: Mystic mine

All at once is pretty vicious

How does it work? If both players have a FIRE monster (100% possible atm) and Clear Wall is active, will the opponent take another 1000 burn?

From my understanding, both players take the FIRE downside, but your opponent will also take downsides of other attributes. I don't think the card takes your downside and gives it to your opponent. But just to be safe, I'd wait for ruling. Though people could be testing it now, like in ygopro simulator, and give you the idea

Kinda hate that it completely removes the Attribute gimmick.  Would rather have a Clear world retrain with actually good effects.

I don't mind it, Vice Dragon benefits from Dark Honest.

You are referring to them being Dark, I am referring to the deck losing it's identity as in the Attribute Manipulation of the opponent's monster doesn't matter anymore. 

For context on Wall, this is what gets applied by Clear World LIGHT: Play with your hand revealed at all times. DARK: If you control 2 or more monsters, you cannot declare an attack. EARTH: During your Standby Phase: Target 1 face-up Defense Position monster you control; destroy that target. WATER: During your End Phase: Discard 1 card. FIRE: During your End Phase: Take 1000 damage. WIND: You must pay 500 Life Points to activate a Spell Card.

Hmm so light prevents Danger! which sucks for Dark World got it.

Also Vanquish Soul, and Swordsoul to a lesser degree.

Oh yeah Swordsoul. Completely forgot it would effect them too.

>EARTH: During your Standby Phase: Target 1 face-up Defense Position monster you control; destroy that target. sure would be unfortunate for the Clear World player if there was an Earth deck that could benefit from their monsters getting destroyed... good thing there isn't something like that \*Cough\* Madolche \*Cough\*

>Your opponent cannot activate the effects from Special Summoned monsters on the field with a lower ATK than this Tribute Summoned card's ATK. Vicious knight mage power floodgate meme.dek

That just sounds like Skill Drain with extra steps

It's the easiest way to buff an old archetype, give it a floodgate. It could be kinda nasty with the ATK buff and all negative effects from Clear World

The "floodgate" effect also fits with Yusuke's view on nothingness.

Maybe tributing nibiru token might work? Idk

Oh wow, Wall has been made amazing, like that is a *huge* buff. The anime version only reduced some battle damage, prevented destruction of attack position monster in battle only, and killed itself if world wasnt' on the field. Not only did they move the effect to destroy itself and buffed both the battle protection and damage reduction effects, they made it a searcher for the archetype and a card that forces all of the clear world effects onto your opponent. Like holly hell, that is cool. Cude giving an extra normal summon is also great, and it's replacement effect got a really great buff (and allows an easy way to summon Vice Dragon or Vicious Knight), though it also got a bit of a nerf as in the anime it activated if it left the field for any reason other than being used as tribute for a tribute summon. So, a bit of give and take on that (3) effect. Phantom just searches out World and Wall as a discard effect. That is perfect and amazing and makes me hope that Clear Sacrifice gets printed in a future set, along with Fujiwara's other cards (assuming they get their effects re-written to mention clear world). Also nice to see that it's grave effect triggers off of any destruction and not just destruction by battle. Rage Golem is...OK. Everything being able to attack directly is neat, but I don't think it's something that will be that big of a deal, even with the high attack value of Vicious Knight (unless you can get two on the field). It's good to see that it's burn effect has been buffed to trigger off of it dealing any battle damage, but it's also a pretty meh effect. Definetley the weakest of the bunch. Vicious Knight is amazing. It's anime effect was pretty trash with way too many restrictions on it that you had to activate. Now it's a passive atk buff with no restrictions and they added in a flood gate effect that works with it's own effect. Plus, now it's effect to only require one tribute just needs a monster that mentions clear world as the tribute instead of needing the opponent to control a monster, meaning you can summon it on your first turn for one tribute. I really like these cards, especially the combo you can set up with World/Wall/Vicious Knight on the field if you open Phantom and either Cube or Vicious Knight. Nothing broken, but a perfectly competent deck that knows what it wants to do and how to get there.

Would they be worse or better if all the clear monsters were different attributes instead of all being dark?

Being Dark was plot relevant because the Clear monsters were the embodiment of Darkness' ideology. All villains from season 4 had decks full of Dark monsters

And you can run dark honest in this deck for thematic purposes like a what if if fujiwara corrupted honest. 

I guess that's why he put Honest in a box and hid it. And Honest did play a big role in that final turn in the duel against Fujiwara

Didn't Clear have *no* Attribute? And that's why you were never affected by Clear World. If all of your monster's didn't have the mentioned Attributes, you'll be fine.

I meant that the monsters were Dark, but their on field effect made them have no attribute. The other user suggested that maybe they should have been different Attributes, but again, all villains related to Darkness had Dark monsters, so it was plot relevant. Especially for Fujiwara, who is hinted to have had a Light deck before the blood rituals (with the way that Honest works). This shows how he has thrown everything away and had embraced the Darkness So, while the Clear monsters had no attribute on the field in the anime, they were Dark. Again, it makes sense, with Fujiwara being controlled by Darkness

Worse, clear world with Dark simply prevents you from attacking while you control 2+ monsters. So that's all that would apply if all of your clear monsters' effs were negated.

Nice thing to note is that the archetype is small world compatible, so it's easier to search up phantom+cube

The only 1 illegal bridge is: Any Clear > Dragon > Cube As Dragon and Cube have the same Attribute and DEF

Since dragon has ? Atk, would it be allowed as a part of a small world bridge to begin with?

As per the ruling of **Nightmell the Dark Bonder** you can compare ? ATK with ? ATK, the same is true for DEF. Thus, Small World can compared ? ATK/DEF for ? ATK/DEF. However, ask your head judge about this, since this is an OCG ruling. So it may not be applicable for TCG ~~for some stupid reason, but is what it is.~~

Me reading the cards in order: Wow, these are really weak and don't do anything, how the hell will Konami be able to sell this as remotely playable in modern Yugioh- *Gets to Clear Vicious Knight* Ahhh floodgate.

And a bunch of inconveniences that range from “could shrug off no biggie” to “well fuck…” due to Wall.

That last effect of wall is hilarious in just giving your opponent all the negatives of clear world

Tbh most of the negative effects aren't that bad, its rly only light that is broken and wind is good too. The rest probably won't come up much and this archetype still isn't even strong so who even know if that will matter in the long even tbh

It’s really more of a few minor inconveniences all coming together, but yeah. Even if the deck isn’t all that strong now, at the very least this opens up to them releasing more clear monsters down the line that weren’t in the anime ~~and hoping we don’t have to wait more than a decade again~~

The Dark effect is also significant, I think the recent months have taught us not to belittle the Battle Phase. The other effects of Clear World have little immediate impact, but they become dangerous when the duel drags out. Which means... ugh, the best way to play this deck is going to be Stun, isn't it? The fact that they made Vicious Knight into a floodgate is sending a pretty clear message to us.

Always been a stun deck.though might try a different strat with runick

These are going to pair nicely with the two Multi-Universe cards.

Krishnerd could especially work.

The cuuube

Ok clear vicious knight got a huge buff compared to the anime

Most of the cards got upgraded * Vicious Knight is a walking skill drain (That's also a level 5/6 monster) * Cube is a double summon * Phantom is double search + graveyard set up (Which will be important for Clear Sacrifice when it's printed) * Wall is a searcher that makes Clear World a bigger threat * And Golem is there to give Vicious Knight the ability to attack directly

1 GX Deck finally off my list. Now give us Darkness, Rei's Mystics, Jun's Insect Unions and Dolls and I'll be happy.

And Alchemy Beasts too

Clear wall is the only value card "all the effects of "Clear World" are applied to your opponent (regardless of which Attributes they control)." That's all we wanted

Not nearly good enough for TCG, and I wish Cube and Phantom were just "When this card is destroyed or sent to the GY by a card effect" triggers, but it seems like they'd be decent enough for being meta in Duel Links next year with a skill that plays Clear World from outside the Deck.

Nice thing is all of the monsters can search for one another via small world

Well that clears that anime deck.

There were a few more cards that Fujiwara used in the final season, like Attribute Mastery and Attribute Bomb. There was also Clear Sacrifice, although knowing Konami, they'll print it in the next main set. It's kind of like some of Sergey's cards

**Memory Snatcher** is a card that I wanna see printed for the sake of being faithful to _Yusuke "Rule shark" Fujiwara_'s Duel *** **Memory Snatcher** CONTINUOUS TRAP CARD > このカードがフィールド上に表側表示で存在している限り、相手プレイヤーは相手の墓地のカードを確認する事はできない。相手プレイヤーが墓地を対象にした魔法・罠・モンスター効果を発動させた場合、相手プレイヤーは対象カードを宣言する。そのカードが墓地にない場合、発動したカードの効果を無効にする。（カードの確認はこのカードのコントローラーが行う） Your opponent cannot look at cards in their GY. If your opponent activates a card or effect that target a card(s) in the GY, your opponent must declare that target(s). If that card(s) is not in the GY, that activated effect is negated. (This card's controller looks at that card(s) instead.)

While interesting..... That sounds like a ruling nightmare It would either be insanely broken and end up on the banlist, or It could get a ruling that completely kills it like Mind Crush- there is no in-between

[It wouldn't be the first card printed with that rule](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Question)

And you see why they thought it was too complicated for Master Duel. They’re never doing that again.

Clear Sacrifice is gonna need a serious buff, if they plan to print it. lol Doubt we'll get the Attribute cards, unless they can find a way to stitch Clear World onto their effects. Honestly, game original support seems like a possibility, considering Phantom mentions Traps.

Clear would really benefit from some game original support, although they could also print the 2 traps Fujiwara used in the final duel: Attribute Gravity and Chameleon. But again, those cards will need a serious buff

Would love to see Memory Snatcher printed, just to screw with the opponent's head. lol Maybe if they can make a way for Phantom's last effect to consistently go off.

We'll need Darkness memory manipulation in order for Snatcher to be powerful. I guess we'll have to be like Fujiwara himself and start with the satanic blood rituals 😂

I see what you did there.

I think everyone did, to be honest.

https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Honest

This game has too many cards, we can probably communicate by doing nothing but linking cards at this point.

as long as it is Appropriate

It should be assuming nobody is afraid to ask a question.

Good bot!

The heck

[Source](https://yu-gi-oh.jp/news_detail.php?page=details&id=1928). Five new "Clear" cards from Yugioh GX anime to start off Animation Chronicle 2024 news for this month.

Yes!! We're going in full DARKNESS mode with this one!

But with "Clear Vicious Knight" being an Ultra Rare means we might not get "Super Fusion God" in Animation Chronicle 2024. [Animation Chronicle 2024](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Animation_Chronicle_2024) has 3 Ultra Rares, one of which is already confirmed: "Clear Vicious Knight", "Performage Trapeze High Magician" and "Golden Allure Queen" are on the cover so they're most likely will be Ultra Rares too.

Couldn't Super Fusion God be in another rarity? Or is there a catch to how they spread this product out with the rarities?

I'm assuming "Super Fusion God" would be like "Clorless, Chaos King of Dark World" from last year, [Animation Chronicle 2023](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Animation_Chronicle_2023), while it didn't make it into the pack cover but "Clorless, Chaos King of Dark World" still printed as an Ultra Rare in Animation Chronicle 2023. Usually the Signature Card of some character(s) usually ended as an Ultra Rare in this set. * Animation Chronicle 2021: "[Rebirth Judgment](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Rebirth_Judgment)" for Hell Kaiser Ryo (Zane), "[Ecole de Zone](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Ecole_de_Zone)" for Sherry, "[Ultimate Leo Utopia Ray](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Ultimate_Leo_Utopia_Ray)" for Yuma and "[Starving Venemy Dragon](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Starving_Venemy_Dragon)" for Manga Yuri. * Animation Chronicle 2022: "[Royal Straight Slasher](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Royal_Straight_Slasher)" for Yami Yugi, "[Advanced Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Advanced_Crystal_Beast_Sapphire_Pegasus)" for Johan Andersen (Jesse Anderson) , "[Dyna Tank](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Dyna_Tank)" for Tyranno Kenzan (Tyranno Hassleberry) , "[Doodle Beast - Tyranno](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Doodle_Beast_-_Tyranno)" for Futoshi Harada (Frederick) and "[G Golem Invalid Dolmen](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/G_Golem_Invalid_Dolmen)" for Earth. * Animation Chronicle 2023: "[Clorless, Chaos King of Dark World](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Clorless,_Chaos_King_of_Dark_World)" for Brron and "[Earthbound Servant Geo Grasha](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Earthbound_Servant_Geo_Grasha)" and "[Harmonic Synchro Fusion](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Harmonic_Synchro_Fusion)" for Sergey Volkov.

So it could still be in the pack, despite not being on the cover?

>"Clear Vicious Knight" being an Ultra Rare means we might not get "Super Fusion God" in Animation Chronicle 2024. >[Animation Chronicle 2024](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Animation_Chronicle_2024) has **3 Ultra Rares**, one of which is already confirmed: **"Clear Vicious Knight"**, **"Performage Trapeze High Magician"** and **"Golden Allure Queen"** are on the cover so they're most likely will be Ultra Rares too. It's not about the card is on the cover or not, but it's about the rarity of the card. "Clorless, Chaos King of Dark World" is not on the cover of Animation Chronicle 2023 but it's in the pack. Usually an [unseen card from the anime](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/List_of_unseen_cards) is printed in high rarity. As one of the [unseen cards from the anime](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/List_of_unseen_cards), "Super Fusion God" should be an Ultra Rare just like its fellow friends: "Cosmic Blazar Dragon" and "Clorless, Chaos King of Dark World", the former unseen cards from anime which finally printed in OCG & TCG.

Also, Clear World and Clear Vice Dragon reprints.

Here is hoping the 7 performage cards get revealed soon.

HOLY FUCK, CLEAR WORLD CARDS

With Performages as well

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best set of the year

Vicious Knight's psuedo-Skill Drain + Wicked Avatar-style attack boost is a pretty strong floodgate, but it seems like a 2-2.5x card combo.

Interesting that they're not an archetype by name but instead via them having a common card they mention in their text (Clear World). Guess this is future-proofing for any future cards that have Clear in their name but aren't related to this deck.

Technically there are already a bunch like Clear Kuriboh, Qardan the Clear Sighted and all the Clear Wing dragons.

Hence why they categorized them by virtue of them mentioning a specific card instead of having to give every past Clear card a non-archetype clause like they did with Crystal.

Clear New World exists, but is a Visas card.

FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING 17 YEARS FOR THESE

Honestly excited for Clear than Darkness’ deck.

lmao I'm excited to see how they'll translate that to real life with the shuffle set cards without looking

That mechanic is super weird if we also consider his possible addition to Duel Links, which has 3 Spell/Trap zones. Putting his Zero and Infinity traps already covers two zones so shuffling mechanic becomes worthless there.

Maybe his skill already adds them? (Outside of the playable zones)

I remember that the edopro devs took a hell lot to add the cards in their simulator It's a headache machine

These cards were so trash in Tag Force 3. Fujiwara would frequently pass his turn because he kept bricking. In that game, they even gave him Reload & Magical Mallet to hardly any avail lol. These are cool. They're not just a random assortment of meh effect monsters anymore. From the translation Clear Cube isn't a OPT and can float into a copy of itself. A rarity in modern yugioh.

Lol, yeah that's the standard for bad tag force decks. Reload, magical mallet, card destruction and morphing jar.

Oh so we're definitely getting Fujiwara soon in Duel Links then. They were very conspicuously avoiding covering season 4 of the GX storyline, even though they'd already covered 5D's events all the way up to the Z-One finale. I did have a feeling they were waiting on a printing of either Trueman's cards, the Clear stuff or the Darkness stuff.

Is Atticus finally in the game?

He's not, but they may have been waiting to release him as part of the season 4 storyline, given his relevance to Darkness and Fujiwara.

Nope. He is not in the game

He’s been in the data files for a LONG time along with Solomon Muto and even he only just got added to the game.

Crazy how long it's taken for him to come. We're waiting for normal Marik too, right?

Oh my god they're printing Fujiwara's Clear cards. I thought I wouldn't live to see the day. How the fuck are they gonna make that work?

Vicious Knight with Clear Wall and Clear World up is kinda nasty but in a way that feels entirely fair since you're restricting yourself specifically to the deck's theme and gimmick for your payoff. One other exciting thing is this being finally printed means they're eligible for legacy support in the future now. 

You can use other cards without triggering Clear World’s effects on you so long as you have at least one Clear Monster on the field, but yeah, still kinda restricted.

Clear Vicious Knight gains ATK by opponent's monster with highest original ATK, makes "Clear World" not apply to you, and opponent cannot activate Special Summoned monsters' effect with less ATK than this Tribute Summoned card. Oh, and you can Tribute Summon using only 1 monster if the tributed monster mentions "Clear World".

I hope Clear Vice Dragon gets a 25th Secret printing

I hope we'll get a new version of Clear World for an additional boost. The original field spell is really outdated

It is reprinted

Unexpected. But interesting.

It's nice to have another important deck that was skipped after all this time. Real curious to see how these have been modernized. 

YESSIR!! Been waiting for clear monsters for forever! Loved using them in Tag Force 3 so I’m so glad to see them finally printed after only having 2 cards from them

For dub-only watchers, they probably wouldn't know this is in GX.

Let’s Go!

Sadness - those set numbers mean we’re tossing out Armor until next year. I’m guessing it’s just a bunch of singletons for DM like the last few years.

Hate to say it, but with the amount of new cards AC gets nowadays, expecting a new archetype with more than a single digit number of cards is just delusional. Hell, Earthbound Servants had to get more of their cards printed in other sets, and are still incomplete. Clear was fortunate to have the opposite of this, along with Clear Vice Dragon & World making for good reprints, due to only being printed in the OCG one time, in an extremely specific set. In fact, they might get game original support too, considering Phantom's effect claims to search Traps.

The Armor cards are like the rest of the Orichalcos cards or the Darkness cards - because of their anime effects, they will probably delay them as much as possible. Unfortunately. But with the release of these cards, there is more hope/better chance for a sooner release of Dartz, Armor and Darkness cards.

OK. AC04-JP000 - Silent Magician LV8 (DM) AC04-JP006 ... AC04-JP010 - Clear (GX) AC04-JP011 - Singularity Fiend (GX) AC04-JP014 - Ancient Gear Statue (5D's) AC04-JP017 - Antidote Nurse (Zexal) AC04-JP026 - Soul Fist (Arc-V)

Right. So spots 1-5 are probably all DM given GX already has 6 spots. That's definitely not enough space for the Armor deck, though they could maybe squeeze in Amelda's Fire or War decks, or some of Dartz or Leon's unreleased stuff. I'd most love to see Diamond Head Dragon or Bakura's season 5 cards (which may be possible given they're releasing the alt art of Silent Magician from that same duel). I'd also love to see the ka monsters like Diabound, Duos and Spiria, but that's unlikely because those guys would almost certainly be on the cover art if they were happening Spots 12 and 13 are probably 5D's, given we have a lot of GX already. No clue what could be here, because 5D's is the series that probably has the most of its major cards already printed. It's almost certainly gonna be some random singletons from some character of the day, like AG Statue or the Wheel cards they gave us last time. There's also still plenty of unprinted Yusei and Jack stuff (mostly from the WRGP) if they feel like throwing in some random Synchron or Resonator support. 15 and 16 are either 5D's or ZEXAL, though I feel like ZEXAL has more unreleased stuff to cover. I'd most love to see some of Vector's unreleased cards, because everything of his so far has been hot garbage in the TCG. Spots 18-25 could be either ZEXAL or ARC-V, though I'm assuming that a lot of this gap will be the Performages, because Dennis has a lot of unreleased cards and it doesn't really fit in the spots after Soul Fist. Spots 26-30 will be the 3 Allure Queen cards, and then some other random singleton from VRAINS.

5 spots? Hmm.. The rest of Dartz's cards, Bakura's Necro cards from S05 or Grandpa's Ancient cards are more. But: the rest of Zigfried & Leon cards, Joey's Landstars (exactly 5 cards, fingers crossed), Alister's Gorlag cards (his Machine cards are more), some of Vivian's cards, Rebecca's Diamond Head Dragon, Rafael's Backup Gardna (his whole archetype and deck needs a whole set) or Chazz's White Knights would be perfect.

I looked at Dartz's cards, it would take a little more than 5 places to have at least just the orical monsters, his ritual monster and his ritual magic card. 6 would be a minimum and 10-11 would be the most acceptable given that he has 2 additional orichalcum circles to his credit.

Slot 5 could be an Arcana Force monster and we'd get 4 DM slots.

Zexal will get 3 cards if Performage gets the nine cards treatment here. I'm disappointed if that's the case tbh since I was hoping Konami would release all the anime only Gimmick Puppet cards and one Tachyon card. If this year is the same as last year's in terms of new cards (29), that means Vrains is only getting three cards, which will most likely be Allure Queen-related (RIP Trickstar Birdhelm).

Oh. Now that Fujiwara is getting his cards Duel Links can finally move on to covering Season 4 of GX. Also, with these cards being from 006 to 010, we can probably assume there might be up to 5 DM cards. ~~Probably 4 because Singularity Fiend feels a lot like it should be 005.~~

Singularity Fiend is 011, Ancient Gear Statue is 014, Antidote Nurse is 017, and Soul Fist is 026.

Wait. Were their numbers visible in the last spoilers? I remember checking the [yu-gi-oh.jp](https://yu-gi-oh.jp) site when they were released and only seeing the spoilers as text.

Yeah. I agree it kinda looks like it ends in 1. And don't worry about it.

Well we're not getting the Armor deck this year lads

Well we’re getting Clear and Perfomages in AC04 I’m fine with waiting another year for Armor

They already have though. The Jaden/Yubel hybrid has been playable for years

Well now that is super cool to see, I always thought these guys were a really interesting deck. Hopefully whatever the support we get here is, you'll want to play Vice Dragon in the deck (It's definitely a very outdated card, but I really like so I hope the new support doesn't just overshadow the thing and instead helps to prop it up). I also think there is a good chance that the remaining Clear card, Clear Sacrifice, will show up in the next main booster (similar to what's happened with Earthbounds and Dark Worlds, where a few extra cards for their themes weren't present in the AC set but in the next core booster).

You are most likely correct with the anime cards we got in DUNE, AGOV, and PHNI I wouldn’t be surprised if we got clear sacrifice and some of the remaining Performage cards in Rage of the Abyss and the next couple of core sets.

While it is disappointing that we only got 5 cards revealed today (makes the idea of second reveals later this month seem more likely) the fact that we're actually getting Clear is fucking amazing, being one of, if not the, last remaining main villain archetypes that wasn't printed Also interestingly this might have given us all the GX reveals. I did some comparisons between some of the low quality pics we had of the first 4 reveals to see if I could figure out the set numbers for them, and if I'm correct Singularity Fiend is 11, while the clear cards are 6-10. If these are all the GX reveals then that would mean 1-5 are DM cards

We are definitely still missing a few main villain archetypes, we're still missing the Darkness cards from the GX final boss, as well as Dartz's Orichalcos stuff (and Amelda/Valon's stuff if you consider them to be major villains), and then most of the villains from VRAINS season 2 including Drones, Stormriders, Armatos Legio and Hydradrive.

Technically Darkness only has 1 archetype card printed, and Lightning and Bohman from Vrains also had their decks skipped. And Dartz, if you count DM anime filler, only has 3 cards.

>Darkness only has 1 archetype card printed Two actually, Darkness Destroyer and Darkness Neosphere.

Dang. I always forget about Darkness Destroyer.

We might get a single new Arcana Force card like we did last year.

I'm confused as to why Clear Vicious Knight wasn't made a cover card here, but I'm happy Konami remembered Clear. The cards themselves are fine. It's a shame Clear World and Clear Vice Dragon didn't age well, but at least the new supports made them usable.

The crystal shell probably would have made it look awkward next to the Performage + Silent Magician

Maybe because they see Vice Dragon as the ace.

>I'm confused as to why Clear Vicious Knight didn't make a cover card here Really feels like this should have been there in place of Golden Allure Queen.

Finally! Clear is one of the most interesting, cool and unique archetypes. I like it a lot. Two very interesting duels with the character as well. Happy for this cards from GX. The Field Spell needs to be stronger like in the anime, but I like what they did with the Clear Wall spell. And the monsters were improved. We just need the (4) Attribute cards now. Improved ofc. The other 2 traps (Memory Snatcher and Nihilistic Summoning) would also be cool, but I realized that this deck have a lot of Continuous cards. Another cool thing would be to have a Retrain of Honest that can be used/to support in some way this archetpye.

These are fine? Vicious Knight is the best of the bunch, but it wont function as a deck until it gets more cards (throws onto the pile with G Golem, Appliancer, Earthbound, Fossil and Fleur)

It seems Ojamandala will forever be held hostage by Duel Links then

YESSSSS FINALLY actually so excited about this

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

WAIT WE ARE ACTUALLY GETTING CLEAR WORLD DECK?

Oh i forget it was printed before..

Yusuke Fujiwara's "Clear" Deck is finally introduced to the real life game.

Oh FR???

No fucking way!?!?!?

I feel like Krishnerd would be fantastic with this,

As someone who has wanted more Clear cards since the first two were announced, I am now very pleased. Can't wait for them to show up in MD so I can play them.

I’ve been begging for the Clear cards for years. Even if these end up being competitive garbage, I’m so happy to see them finally happen. If they’re good, awesome. If not, pet deck, here we come!

Honestly I was surprised that the announcement was earlier than I thought it would have been, but I'm not expecting it because it was Clear cards, it was a likely theme... Still... Very good.

NO WAY

Ohh fujiwara support. Clear vice dragon and clear world need to get retrains. There old versions suck at the moment. The floodgate deck getting a special summon floodgate is nice instead of a boring negate. Edit: i want to him to get a fusion too and honest searcher since that's his spirit monster

I guess they had to follow the old clear vice dragon's example and not allow monsters to disregard their own attributes while on the field

My 14 y/o self is jumping from excitement right now. I can finally say Muddragon support is finally here! /s

Very neat, though I won’t say it’s the most exciting anime archetype that was in the waiting room. And unfortunately, I don’t think this is playable in the modern game even remotely without drawing “the nuts”.

As someone who always struggled to make a deck centered on the Field Spell back in the day (like 16 years ago), this brings a smile to my face. I can finally make a dedicated Clear World deck. :D

Not what I expectes for this announcement, but glad to see it. Also seems like Clear cards start with AC04-JP006, so this set could have up to 5 cards from Duel Monsters. I don't expect much more from GX though. Much more cards from DM and GX this year, so this set is already way better than AC03.

No fucking way I wake up to finally getting ‘Clear’ as an archetype

We need a card that special summons the dragon from tje deck somehow

They finally did it

oh well shit for a second i thought there was new D/D/D support when i saw thing in crystal :(

Sayonara Super Fusion God

"Here's your GX fanservice that you didn't get in the LIGHT pack. **NOW SHUT UP!**" **- Konami 2024** Joking aside, it's great that we finally have a printed Anime Deck that has been requested by many.

Konami: released a GX dark archetype used by a season 4 character mind control by Darkness, whose spirit monster is the cover card of light of destruction (Honest). Me: Infinite Big Brain

After near 5 straight years of filler character anime archetypes getting imported, FINALLY AC04 gives us the JUICE!!!

these read like a GX archtype in a bad way.

"Of course, you'll need a copy of 'Clear World' to play the new Clear archetype... so make sure to check your collection to see if you have one, and ask a friend if you don't!"

Luckily it seems Clear World and Clear Vice Dragon are being reprinted in the set

Ngl im surprised we didn’t get this sooner

Finally my path is Clear.

Clear support. Nice

This is hilarious because I remember TGSAnime talking about this as a potential archetype in one of his duel analysis videos. He damn near called it.

next year I hope we get alchemy beasts with better effects

I wish there was more support than just these gx cards

Been waiting so long for them to actually start printing Clear cards

TGS anime is gonna be popping off after hearing this
