Subject: Corrections for the June 20th tips Wow, they updated fast this time... (Note: My computer did not display "Yu gi oh game from other country point of view" or "FirePrincess Combo," so I have no way to verify whether they have incorrect rulings or not) A Few Strong Strategies: 1. Torrential Tribute cannot be activated the turn it is set, and Scapegoat's effect does NOT count as a summon, so it is NOT a legal time to activate Torrential Tribute in the first place. Dragon tips for "DRAGON DECKS": 1. Tyrant Dragon's "tribute cost" only affects Special Summons from the GRAVEYARD, and it will not affect Special Summons from the hand. Harpy Theme Review: 1. Gryphon Wing is already released, and is in the Pegasus Starter Deck. The "Pegasus Booster pack" does not and will not exist. Furthermore, Harpies Feather Duster can be countered by Magic Jammer, Magic Drain, and Imperial Order. 2. Screwed translation. Cyber Shield only powers up Harpy Lady and Harpy Lady Sisters. It powers up female monsters in Dark Duel Stories, but if you've read my "review" of Dark Duel Stories, you know that it can't be taken seriously. 3. Rose Whip does not exist in either the English or Japanese game. The closest thing is "Electro Whip." 4. Harpy Lady SB's English name is Cyber Harpie. The picture is a Harpy Lady equipped with an Electro-Whip and Cyber Shield, and its defence is 1300. Its effect is "This card counts as Harpy Lady." It cannot search for Elegant Egotist. It can be used, however, for Elegant Egotist's effect and for Harpy's Pet Dragon's effect. I believe it is going to be released in the next set (Pharaonic Guardian). How to build a warrior deck: 1. Freed does not thin your deck. You search for a Level 4 or less Warrior INSTEAD of your normal draw-per-turn. Your deck is being thinned by the exact same amount as it would be normally. Rather, it is more appropriate to refer to it as "selective drawing." 2. Kunai with Chain is not released in English. Kamikaze Burning Strike: 1. Trap Hole, Jammer, and Tools are all trap cards, not "protective magic cards." 2. The maximum number of monsters allowed on the field at one time is five. If you play one scapegoat, you will have either one or zero slots left. You cannot play a second one until you have four or more slots left. You would have to tribute them for Cannon Soldier or Amazon Archer's effects FIRST. Key Points To a Water Deck: 1. Tornado Wall does NOT protect you from direct damage or from cost damage (i.e. from Burning Land). It will ONLY protect you from damage done to you by an attack. You will still take the damage from Burning Land, Mask of Brutality, Dark Elf, Messenger of Peace, and the Immortal of Thunder. 2. The English ruling is, currently, that Burning Land prevents both players from playing Field Cards. The Japanese ruling is that Burning Land does not affect future Fiend Cards. The Amazon Monsters- Are They Worth The Sacrifices? 1. The Unfriendly Amazon is not technically an Amazon. Its Japanese name is "Friend-slaying Knightness." In the Japanese metagame, it is not affected by the Amazoness cards that will refer to "A card with "Amazoness" in its name" for specific effects. This is a major translating error that will take awhile for Upperdeck to reconcile. (The rest of the Amazoness cards aren't going to be released for at least a set or two, however) 2. The Unfriendly Amazon and Amazon Archer require 1 monster sacrifice. The TYPE of monster does not matter. 3. Mask of Restrict does not mean that you can summon tribute monsters with tribute. It PREVENTS YOU FROM TRIBUTING, SO YOU CANNOT SUMMON TRIBUTE MONSTERS IN A TRIBUTE SUMMON. The Perfectly Ultimate Great... Failure? 1. Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth is not in Metal Raiders. It is not even released in English. It is a Japanese promo. 2. The required time is five turns. 3. This includes your opponent's turns. Swords of Revealing Light lasts for 3 of YOUR turns, so SORL will cover the entire time. 4. Gryphon Wing is already released. ... Questions, Comments, Rulings: qc@fengyuan.com -Pegasus
