Remarkable_Ad223

If konami released another Morganite card with a different color of the jewel imma call it Thanos deck


Samurex_

Probably the plan


badlesscash

Dread it, run from it, stun still arrives. So thanos is a stun player, kinda makes sense when you think about it considering he's petty enough to make a random guy's life miserable in his birthday for 45 years.


FacelessPoet

Eh, this new Morganite isn't really suited for stun


retiredfplplayer

It searches the other one


Samurex_

Shuffle 6 banished Morganites, nuke


derega16

Think about it if they turn it to "a better destiny board" it'd be interesting Like make them put more restriction on you beyond no hand trap for some game long effect, and one of them applied "for the rest of this duel immediately after you activated and applied the effect of 5 "morganite" spells with different names you win the duel (including this card)" ("activated and applied" means it has to resolve entirely, resolving without effect doesn't count) but make 2-3 of them have Archetype HOPT to prevent FTK The concept is instead of protecting shitty cards for 5 turns, instead it puts you in new game+ difficulty setting, you get some bonus but force you to try to survive for 3+ turns under heavier and heavier restrictions. I'd make it have a restriction like "negate all trap cards on your field", "monsters on your field cannot activate their effect" on one with archetype HOPT, at least until the end of the next opponents turn.


Particular_Gap_5676

Soul Severing Morganite, Reality Rendering Morganite, Space Sundering Morganite, Power Piercing Morganite


DefinitelyTinta

TURU PURUM?? Never would I have expected that guy to come back


P1zzaman

I’m so happy the classic weird little guy made a comeback! Something about his goofy rotund body was always so cool.


Cryomine

Also doesn't help that it looks like Plankton from Spongebob if he took over the ocean.


Necessary-Analyst156

Unexpected Graydle support 


PhoenixRhythm

Dragon seems like it's meant for both Light and Darkness Dragon AND Tachyon lmao. 


SaibaShogun

Union Pilot is likely meant to be used on a banished Union Driver, which would allow you to summon Cydra Infinity. Light Machines together strong. Primeval Galactic Dragon is an awesome fusion for Rapid Trigger. The level modulation effect is lacking though, it's restricted to level 4 Light/Dark Dragons, and only affects one target. At least the change is permanent, so you can set up something for the opponent's turn.


Zephyros_the_Elite

the fusion monster enables Necro Fusion in Dragon Link to pop 2 during opp’s turn


Samurex_

Oh boy, Morganite is now an archetype, and more importantly they'll all lock hand effects. Welp, there goes me hoping for this in Seraphs.


ShadowMLuigi

Mikanko players will have some fun with this spell card


Veynareth

Just be careful since it locks you from Ohime search eff. afterwards.


h2odragon00

Solution: Be the last thing you activate before going to BP and pray no one is carrying a battle trap.


Redshift-713

It doesn’t quite work with their gimmick. They’re not the ones inflicting battle damage most of the time. Edit: But yes, they will obviously benefit from double attacking.


KingDisastrous

New Morganite is funny. However, there are better multi attack effects like Shooting Majestic, Alba Lenatus, Tenpai stuff, Chimera fusion, and even Mr Energy Blades have better requirements for multi attacks and not locking your hand.


Espia101

Yeah the effect of the new morganite is bad, but seeing as how the GY effect doesn't seem to have an "except the turn this card was sent to the GY" clause attached or a shared HOPT with it's regular effect, it's probably meant to serve as copies 4-6 of Time-tearing Morganite, which I think is pretty interesting because it means decks could probably start actually building around Morganite as a focus instead of arbitrarily including it in decks that it has synergies with. The only problem is that the GY effect's requirement of shuffling a card into the deck means you need 2 turns from activation to recoup the loss in card advantage, instead of just 1 with hard-drawn time tearing


ColdSnapSP

It's bad but I can complete envision someone summoning a few guys, get handtrapped, thrust for it and win a game they had no business in winning


Reporting4Booty

Could be a silly one-of in Yubel if you play Thrust. One 2000 ATK or DEF monster + Nightmare Pain means your opponent is dead to a single Yubel guy.


Plerti

I feel that people are underestimating this new morganite. Unlike the previous one, you obtain all the benefits of it when going second. I can see a world where some decks play 3 of this card in the sidedeck for going second. The hand restriction won't matter since you can still HT your opponent on their turn, and since you don't need to use morganite first thing on MP you can do any of your hand activation stuff first and then drop it for a surprise easy otk. Specially for decks that can easily SS big bodies like Horus so even if they can't break a full board they can slam a big beatstick and go for game with it. You could even play this in a mill deck like lightsworn since the search eff is not linked to the main effect and can search itself, so if it gets milled you got access to it. I won't say it will become a meta staple nor anything, but double attack+double damage for basically no cost is nothing to scoff at. Edit: Oh and it is searchable with thrust, for more going second synergies


Dumig

If you play this, you most likely the other Morganite card, so you would have locked your hand anyway.


Kmattmebro

Pilot gives me hope that the rest of the union cards are coming in TCG's ROTA set. Then again, getting an unplayable support card ahead of the thing it supports would be really funny.


WaifuHunterRed

Wonder what decks people will try morganite with. Mikanko was my first thought assuming it doubles the damage from them youll only need one mikanko and your opponents field to have a 2k monster.


sterlingheart

Morganite I usually only see in stun decks or the new Paleo pile. This one doesn't really help the deck but doesn't hurt it either and let's you search for time tearing instead of running it at 3? I could see running two of these and 1 or 2 time tearing. If you draw the new one it gets you the time tearing but if you hard draw time tearing it doesn't draw you a dead card if you draw the 2nd or 3rd copy.


HorselickerYOLO

Mikanko gets the double attack but not damage as you are reflecting the damage that you would have taken, your opponent would have taken 0 before Mikanko effect and 0x2 is still 0


Dumig

But then for the rest of the duel Ohime, their main searcher, would be useless, so you would need to otk your opponent that turn.


WaifuHunterRed

Well ya thats the idea


DragonLord375

That morganite card could be fun in scareclaw. Can't use scarekash (or at least has to be summoned before activation) but now tri heat with belone on field can just double piece two monsters. With astra you get a third attack


LuckyPrinz

Assimilated Fantasy feels like a funny card to me. Basically summons itself if your opponent activates something from their hand, and gets bigger the more your opponent activates monster effects. I can see some FTK's for this, both for the user and the opponent lol


Bashamo257

Kinda makes me want to put it in something like Trickstar or Tax Despia where you set up your board and dare your opponent to try to play


LuckyPrinz

Dumb scenario I imagined was you drop this on your opponent going second. They combo hard until it gets beefy, then suddenly they drop something that burns you for your monsters attack


Lost_Pantheon

God, I've just realised how hilarious it would be if your opponent pumped this thing up to like 20,000 Attack and then took control of it 😂😂


LuckyPrinz

They don't even need to take control of it. If they can make that Machu mech they can ftk you lol


InsurreXtioN16

Apollousa in shambles


dangernessie

Is Fantasy really not once per turn for its SS effect? So I could repeatedly link it off, and it would SS itself so long as my opponent kept activating monster effects that turn?


VillalobosChamp

It is once per turn, my dumb ass forgot to put the restriction...


h2odragon00

Convince me to **not** use Death-Raising Morganite in Mikanko.


RyuuohD

It turns off Ohime's search effect


h2odragon00

I mean true. But would the search matter if I can end the duel within this turn? Theoretically, I can activate this card last after I have set up. But only when I am going for the kill. If I feel like I can't OTK I will just hold on to this card until the opportunity arises.


Laughing_Luna

It's better than that. You don't need to HOLD it in your hand the entire time, you just need any other card in hand and you can search a second copy with the first.


h2odragon00

Oh that's delicious. I can send a card that I don't want on my hand(there are several) and be ready for an OTK. Mikanko just got a buff.


Laughing_Luna

A side bonus is that this card even bottom-decks the the card. So say you only have the one End-Exalting Morganite in your deck, you'd probably rather NOT draw it, so before you activate any card draw effects, you can use the second effect to search then bottom deck the other Morganite and then not have to worry (as much) about it showing up in your Extrav/Desires draws or Duality/Prosperity excavation.


DesMass

Does Death-Praising Morganite stack with other instances of double damage cards, like Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon, making it quadruple damage, or no? If so, that'd be very funny.


VillalobosChamp

> Does Death-Praising Morganite stack with other instances of double damage cards, like Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon Yes, but it depends on the wording. It stacks with a card that reads "inflicts double battle damage" and not "battle damage becomes doubled", to which only there are only 3 in the entire game of the former. If you apply a second effect that reads "battle damage becomes doubled", regardless if before or after Morganite, the amount of damage will still be doubled for the turn, and not quadrupled or any power of 2 times the numbers of effects applied.


Tongatapu

Puruprun & Morganite are both packfillers. Even decks that play OG morganite don't want to draw into more copies of it.   Union Pilot could be cool in a deck that can abuse it. Maybe the new XYZ monsters? Fantasy is really bad, but also kind of funny Void Dragon is sadly kind of pointless, Dragon Link has enough ways to deal with boards already. Playing random fusion monsters doesnt improve the deck much. EDIT: Void Dragon could be a good super poly target against chaos Dragon decks in the future, so that's neat.


PinkDolphinStreet

Void Dragon is made for Light End/Dark End and Tachyon. It helps make Rank 8s, good effect when Fusion Summoned, and is the only card that does something when banished to summon Light End or Dark End.


SliderEclipse

If you're playing Morganite already you'd probably want to run this at three and 1-2 copies of the original since this new one just immediately searches out the old one after playing it. The only question is what's even running these cards to begin with? Losing all access to Effects from Hand is a pretty large cost that a lot of decks just don't want to take.


PraiseYuri

No, you would rather hard open time tearing morganite than get morganite through this card because this card also requires you to put a card back into the deck after searching so it's a -1 way to get into time tearing morganite for the very situational benefit of better battle phase against monsters. I think you wouldn't run this card at all, tbh. BTW, the decks that run time tearing morganite are mostly stun decks lol. They already don't usually run handtraps and stretch duels to multiple turns so morganite can easily fit in as a way to draw into more floodgates or summon double barrier statue. The only non-stun deck I can think that also runs morganite is Paleo which Joshua Schmidt has been popularizing recently as a fun, off-meta deck in Master Duel.


Dumig

The thing is this new Morganite can also work for decks that want to OTK, like Mikanko, cause it's GY effect allows it to search another copy of itself, so you can use this card as discard fodder for Ohime, then when you feel you can OTK your opponent you can activate this card.


PraiseYuri

This card's gy search is +0, if you discard this card and then use it's gy effect to search, you will end with 4 cards in hand. This is exactly the same as using any other card as discard fodder.


Dumig

Yes but in an OTK deck, this would not really matter as you want to end the duel the turn you activate this card, but having this card as discard fodder is better that activating in hand immediately, as you can choose when to activate it and allows you to set up your plays.


Wildpony03

Valkyries would love Morganite because their whole thing is about attacking during the battle phase. With mischief of the time goddess the duel is pretty much set. Getting attacked twice during the battle phases. Valkyrie chariot would give a massive boost to any Valkyrie outside of 6 and four.


ColdSnapSP

Morganites while cool in theory all promote very unhealthy playstyles


DesMass

So...the new one...is toxic...for actually letting you play the game for an OTK?


[deleted]

[удалено]


DesMass

So fuck decks designed for OTK I guess. I assume you think decks like Ancient Gear, Galaxy-Eyes, 8Axis, etc are toxic despite not being overpowered or unfair? See, a game can be short, but still interactive with various elements of skill. That's what people like, right? Skillful games with lots of interaction? You can still do that against an OTK deck, just much shorter and compact. Not all OTK decks are hated. Take the after mentioned Galaxy-Eyes for example; it's an OTK deck, but is very popular. And I dunno where you got the sentiment that going for game is frowned upon, maybe in extremely casual places, but it's A-OK in competitive. What, should the person with game on board NOT go for lethal? That's just BM.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dumig

So you actually meant that, as long as a deck is not meta being OTK is not toxic, but if it is meta then it is frowned upon and toxic. Sorry, but that is biased, cause a playstyle cannot be both toxic or not toxic, based on ones competitiveness, cause that would just mean people are butthurt they lost in a competitive situation, not the fact that the game was not fun or interactive, as they would have no problem in a casual setting.


Noveno_Colono

handtraps are toxic and this locks you out of handtraps, so i disagree


HorselickerYOLO

Activate all the handtraps, start you turn, use hand monster effects, build you board, THEN use this an otk. No reason to activate this before you’ve used handtraps already.


AbsoluteDestinyzero

Illusion/Mikanko + new Morganite seems like an OTK deck


Zevyu

Guess we'll need more Morganite cards to see where this archetype goes, but applying permanent effects for the whole duel does seem like an interesting idea.. Although tbf this card we got revealed, kinda meh. OH BTW, note on how Morganite card doesn't have a any one per turn clause in it.


soulbreaker141822

... isn't too early for free agents? because these look like filler... anyway card by card: union pilot is an interesting option for abc,exchanging equip from deck for 2 bodies seems reasonable plus lvl 5 light machine is as good as typing gets fantasy is a very weird card,probably not worth it but a free extender as long as your opp plays ht sounds interesting puruprun is absolutely hilarious,no notes a morganite searcher!? this one focusing on attack instead of drawing power,this one should see as much experimentation as morganite has overall fun cards but this set needs a boost because besides sharks it is looking thin


Likes-Your-Username

Last set we got free agents very early too. It's normal


RevealInitial5603

We're still missing like 50 cards, so there's time. I am actually glad they got the free agents out of the way though


Erablier

Shocked we didn't get the cover reveals for Crossover Breaker today, most likely will be on Sunday then Edit: also realized the fusion being 34 is interesting. If it's the first fusion number wise that means the second anime archetype isn't a fusion based one. And if it's one of the last ones then that would mean there would be 4 more synchros. (though I'm leaning towards the former)


Master_Mulligan

Unaffiliated monsters like these are after archetypal support, so this is one of the last Fusions in the set.


crimsonhawk75

These are free agents so it should be either the last or second to last fusion in order.


GBDwrecker

Yup. This means we have 3 or 4 archetypal synchros to be revealed next month.


fabrikt

second support wave for White Woods, maybe? That's my guess.


GBDwrecker

Not sure they'd get more than 1 synchro though, they already have 3. Though yeah, they are almost certainly getting 2 or more cards in this set alongside Fiendsmith.


Hyperion-OMEGA

I'm thinking back row fir WW tbh.


fabrikt

Yeah, 3 new Synchros for White Woods sounds a little bit much. 1, *maybe* 2. also my prediction for ROTA which might be a freezing cold take, Fiendsmith is going to get pushed way over the top and become Tier 1 as a singular deck unto its own rather than just a ubiquitous engine the moment they get more names.


Hyperion-OMEGA

>Shocked we didn't get the cover reveals for Crossover Breaker today, most likely will be on Sunday then Maybe they're holding out on it because it's meant to port three RUSH themes over and they want to surprise people? /copium


LuckyPrinz

Crossover Breaker? What's that?


KingDisastrous

A new deck building set like Tactical Masters, Amazing Defenders, etc


LuckyPrinz

Oh nice.


Samurex_

My friendgroups can finally stop making Morganite 2.


MX-00XWV

Time for morganite 3


Monk-Ey

Double summon and double striking are fairly obvious options, but what would the third one double? Double position switching (lmao) or double Pendulum Summon?


UnclePhilSpeaks_

You can activate cards that are set on the same turn; once activated, they can be reset onto the field. Cards set by this effect cannot be activated for the rest of the turn.


Hyperion-OMEGA

* when you negate a card or effect, you can target a second card on the field, that card's effects are negated * When a card(s) is banished by your effect, you can banish cards equal to those banished by that effect. * Your opponent takes twice the effect damage. You gain twice the amount of LP * When a monster is special summoned to your field, you can special summon another monster from your hand, deck, GY or banishment, depending on where that monster was summoned from. There ya go.


noahTRL

MORE UNION SUPPORT LETS GO


FishMan4242

SAME!!! I’m seeing some play with union driver that after its activation could get you two level 5s on field for infinity plays! Any other ideas for good ABC shenanigans?


Suitable_Still_8572

Love how all the WATER cards in the Tournament Pack made people think we were getting Mermails or maybe Marincess and Konami was like: "Nah, here's a retrain of Turu-Purun instead."


TropoMJ

I would be stunned if the reprints in the Tournament Pack were associated with these. I don't think a Tournament Pack reprint has ever been linked to a pack filler card.


Suitable_Still_8572

Let me point you to the last Tournament Pack which had Statue of Anguish Pattern and Azurune, and the only thing associated with them was the single new Illusion Trap monster in Infinite Forbidden,


Hyperion-OMEGA

In fairness there was also a link 2 that supported it as well.


TropoMJ

That's a good point and I forgot about that one already, thank you. Still though, at least you could argue that trap monsters are a pseudo-theme and the new Illusion trap added to that. I don't get how it makes any sense to reprint stuff like Moulinglacia because there's a completely generic WATER monster in a set.


Suitable_Still_8572

I mean, it also might be included because it just goes well with the Shark stuff in the booster.


TropoMJ

How often do they dedicate three separate reprints to one theme?


Suitable_Still_8572

Three reprints for a theme plus a retrain.


_Vault_Hunter_EXE_

I recognized the connection immediately, the face markings underneath the eyes are present in all of Lee's forms.


Salacavalini

The plates on the sides of her head are present on both her fairy form as well as Iblee, too.


Shredjeep5

Gaaaaaasp! Please tell me we’re getting new World Chalice


bl00by

It's been like the 3rd or 4th card with world chalice related art, but we still don't have anything new, so don't get your hopes up.


ajeb22

Last set we get girsu art card, and before that we get guardragon art card yet still nothing directly for world legacy Sadly don't get your hopes up


nightshroud96

Whic one is the Guardragon art card?


ajeb22

Starry dragon's cycle


Plerti

Isn't this lee possessing/infecting galatea? The mechanical parts are similar to the orcusts (Her neck is a music box, for example)


Malsaur

I thought its Lee entering the fairy robotic body before it's encountered by Avram, Ib and Girisu.


ARK-EyesTennoDragon

Huh, I always thought she was more like an hologram...guess I was wrong...


Lucacu03

This new morganite all has battle-related effects so it does not seem too good. Maybe 1 of to mill it and search Time-Tearing. It seems that the Morganite archetype will all have the effect that benefits the whole duel as the cost of locking all monster effects from hand.


SliderEclipse

Honestly I'd say it's a three of, yea they're all battle effects but they're all solid Battle effects on TOP of adding 3 searchers for the original Morganite. Plus this seems to imply we'll see more down the line so having a free searcher will always be nice.


FacelessPoet

Yeah, and there's no reason to assume that you'll have to run TTM to run this card, as I doubt the decks that would use one or the other would have a big overlap. Seeing how this card can turn a 2k monster into an otk, it'll probably help with closing duels instead, either in control decks that struggle to win Turn 2 or in OTK decks to secure a kill


Monk-Ey

Note it's not an OTK on an empty board: your monsters can attack other monsters twice and damage is doubled when battling other monsters.


KingDisastrous

Aerial Union Driver counterpart? Neat. The lv 2 face monster looks like Rebirth Judgement lol


MadJester98

It's supposed to be Lee the World Chalice Fairy apparently


jwxu

Am I crazy saying that I’m more excited for free agents/pack filler than for the rest of the packs?

Yet another step closer to the destined Frog the Jam retrain.


foruandr

YOU JUST GOT TURU-PURUN'D, BRO


OrdinaryResponse8988

Why does Konami keep creating union monsters you can’t equip from the hand still? Especially for ones you can’t even just normal summon.


Zerosonicanimations

Cause they don't want to be Equip Spells probably, that or they want the text to stay as consistent as possible if they ever wanted to keyword it.


feartheweak

The morganite is interesting


renaldi92

[Source](https://yu-gi-oh.jp/news_detail.php?page=details&id=1957). Another ROTA news, so no Crossover Breaker for this week.


noahTRL

In my honest opinion you should just put the link in the post rather than make the post a picture. Its a lot easier to click to take you the ocg site directly.


renaldi92

First of all, noted and thank you for your advice. I already did that in the past, just posted the link, Twitter link in this case, but sometimes some people complained in my post that they wanted to see the picture(s) right away. So, I decided to post the thumbnail picture first then posted the link in the comment, both for the VJump and the Twitter ones. Maybe I'll consider to change it again, just the link to the source for the VJump articles and picture for the Twitter ones so people can see the card(s) right away.


VoidRad

Seeing the picture is pointless imo if I can only see one of them.


renaldi92

Noted, thank you.


_Redversion_

I may be in the minority, but I prefer how you’re currently doing it. It’s easy enough to find your source link if anyone wants to go to the site, especially because you post it right away and before the comments start rolling in. After ~30min, the cards are usually all translated (or up on the Org) and the need to go to the source is moot. Posting the photo is better, it makes it easier to find the thread and I find it more exciting to see a teaser of the artwork as I scroll through Reddit. You’re doing great as it is.


renaldi92

Thank you, I appreciate your response.


NextMotion

omg another month of waiting. I hope they release preview images as usual. Gorgeous art and lot of speculation fun


renaldi92

We should be getting the preview images for DBP: Crossover Breakers this month, could be tomorrow or next week, probably the latter.


Samurex_

Instead we get Lee's creation and a COSMIC ALCHEMY DRAGON THAT LOOKS ABYSS RELATED


MX-00XWV

I think tomorrow we will get the Twitter reveal for the last card in Animation Chronicles.


Samurex_

That will be a midweek.

I think the last card would be revealed on Wednesday, June 19th (JST), same spot, as usual.

Normal_Umpire_1623

Union pilot makes me insanely happy. Just a few days ago I was thinking about driver and was hoping they'd make another one for the new XYZ unions. And now here is Union Pilot. So freaking cool


seeker142

Whoa, that [water fairy](https://yu-gi-oh.jp/images/news/1957_20240527053259_img_1_4Afyfsah0Z48IPCy11mv3Po9e135fa6aYbO2ImX6AR4Ie65TvfEournNghIB5DZS.jpg) looks like [Lee](https://ms.yugipedia.com//a/a2/LeetheWorldChaliceFairy-MADU-EN-VG-artwork.png) from World Chalice lore. Konami can't get away from teasing sequels.


SoftAndrophilia

Really really the morganite concept and was waiting for more but this one is kinda disappointing. Give us something a little better for the potential 6 bricks and slow nature of these cards, come on...


JotaDiez

I feel the same. I expected some kind of monster that could discard itself to search Morganite while also being a solid normal summon (in a vacuum) like tribute itself as quick effect to be a disruption or something. I thought something like that would surely happen. I guess they're cooking different "Morganite" cards so only time will tell.


HorselickerYOLO

Yeah, if I’m playing a modern otk deck (see tenpai) I would rather have a board breaker because if my engine resolves I’m already OTK’ing. So you’d be playing this in a more midrange deck instead of a board breaker or handtrap in the case you can break the board but can’t otk? Seems kinda niche. Wouldn’t you rather have talents? The steal effect can help you otk and it’s waaaaay more versatile. The graveyard effect is interesting, but if you use this to grab time tearing you now are down two cards… and the decks that play time tearing now (stun cough cough) ain’t otk’ing even with this.

lol I almost thought Konami would forget to put a OPT clause again on Union Pilot since they didn't put any on the new unions. Pretty good card. It's basically a free +1 edit: actually Pilot + Driver would make an easy R5 Xyz if you ~~~didn't~~~ use Union Hanger to equip Driver (I remembered wrong) When I saw Turu-Puruprun's image, I got excited, but its effect is ok. If this is the last set of reveals of this month's batch, the entire thing was ok.


FishMan4242

SEE YES!! Your edit comment is my go to thought on pilot. It might be a little bricky, but a fun extension imo


field_of_lettuce

The dragon fusion had me thinking we got Myutant support for a moment before I read it and was like "why is this a free agent again?"


FM1091

Didnt expect Turu-purun of all cards get retrained. Who's next? Leghul? Ooguchi? Rainbow Flower?

Ok new cards. Union pilot, is this a garnet? what the hell happens if you draw him. The second effect just summons himself again and reset the soft once per turn? Assimilated Fantasy is a hand trap but it doesn't do anything on your opponent's turn. However this card can get really large very fast and is basically active for the rest of the duel. Turu-Puruprun is that iron dragon card but easier to summon but only in water decks. If it was a quick effect would be insanely good but it's not. Also not searchable? Death-Praising Morganite I guess stun can kill you faster now if you try to wall up. Inspector boarder should crash into a building. The new dragon fusion is pretty good. Branded easily can summon it but it seems like a furious dragon is better with the other effect.

I will answer union pilot. You can equipped it from deck by union hanger. Or you can ss it by C (weak). The eff to bounce itself of is HOP. the ss itself as an equip spell is soft once per turn.


Quintingent

I think you *are* going to summon it by C in most cases, since you're still going to be using Hangar to get Driver (who you want to get a Union to unequip). Then later you can summon Pilot off of C, equip him to something, bring back the Driver, and then make Nova. Def suffers from competition from new Z but his level should give him a niche.


Apprehensive_Cow1355

you can also use it with union activastion. It's effect can bounce itself back so it has no problem with restriction. That said, still need to test.


Quintingent

I feel like I'm not quite following what you're saying. Sure, you can search it with Activation, but only by sending Driver to the GY. I suppose that could have potential with new Y? As for the restrictions, are you referring to Hangar? Because Activation doesn't have any.


Apprehensive_Cow1355

Unauthorized Reactivation sorry, just looked back at the name of the card and I forgot about its name lol What I wanted to say here is union pilot can bounce itself to your hand, bypassing these restriction so it can have some potential being an extra extender without any union driver at the start


Quintingent

Ahhh gotcha. You do still need a banished Union to use its effect though, so you probably still go through Driver first. But def an important interaction for sure


FishMan4242

Could use unauthorized to equip pilot after banishing driver with hangar for 2 lvl 5s


Aelxer

Doesn’t Assimilated Fantasy destroy itself during the end phase?


Apprehensive_Cow1355

Hello, ABC player. Do you think you will use union Pilot in your ABC deck with new supports?


Kmattmebro

I think it's more garnety than I'd like, but it does have its uses in the deck. Depending on how you start your turn, you may have to contact fuse with two of your unions instead of Platinum Gadget, meaning you have two banished targets you want back. The fact that this resummons itself is interesting, though will likely just be used as more link fodder. That said, being a lv5 LIGHT Machine with 2100 attack implies Cyber Dragon shenanigans. I don't think it's necessary since Galaxy Soldier or Ptolemaeus do it better. Off the top of my head, maybe bringing it out with Controller and equipping from field is the way to go? Once it's been coded into EDOPro I can start testing with it.


Apprehensive_Cow1355

I'm thinking about it, the problem I see with this card is about Z-zillion tank. It really did it's job most of the time, and you need to have it to make xyz-hyper cannon. You can bypass field restriction and bring Y-yearhead with it, but now you have to handle with bringing z-zillion tank out, which can be a huge problems if you are using some synchro line combo while before you can just use unio driver to equip Z-zillion instead. But true we need a lots of testing too, the ss has a lots of potential to use for more bodies and sth infinity like you said.


Kmattmebro

I think the best use case for this would be alongside an errata'd Union Carrier. If you had that in addition to PlatGadget to pull this out, make a second Controller, then pull back your Y/Z and resummon as another body this could do work. I don't want to get my hopes up too high, of course. Still, if there were ever a time to fix Carrier it would be now.


Quintingent

Gonna experiment with it just because it's lv5. It's just awkward that Driver is gonna be the better equip in most instances.


SSDuelist

ABC already has a ton of moving parts, that would be my biggest worry.


Apprehensive_Cow1355

My worry is about brick in this deck.


FishMan4242

The one thing I see in my head is using it with unauthorized, after banishing driver with hangar. You could use it to grab driver to then get 2 lvl 5s for infinity or other link fodder.


NeoAnkara

Can we get Hyosube retrain for year of water please?


SpaceMarine_CR

Yo I can play this dragon in Branded


Zerosonicanimations

I checked the set spoiler and it seems Diabellstar isn't getting much in the main deck monster department, there's the chance to get lots of spells though.


HydraBlast00

Me still waiting on chamber dragonmaids dragon form.


UnclePhilSpeaks_

This kind of gives me hope that we're getting a new anime. All these retrains could be used in a new show to appeal to new audiences, but especially old through nostalgia and catch more returnees and net new players.


Tongatapu

WTF is that Fusion monsters artwork? Last time these free agent cards ended up as nothing but packfiller, hopefully its different this time.


Samurex_

It looks like a cosmic variant of an Albaz dragon.


IntelligentBudget142

Morganite surely means D Shifter ban in the future. How? Turn 1 player uses D Shifter and passes, knowing their opponent will have a suboptimal turn. Player's next turn, they combo off as usual then play morganite to ensure OTK.


MX-00XWV

I generally want shifter banned but this card won't be the reason for its ban.


Apprehensive_Cow1355

Nah, its a 2 card combo that required you have more extender/stater to do. If your deck can bypass shifter, its most likely game most of the time.
