spambot detected

[Doppleganger]

More like spamgasm. I am so hard right now.

I was kind of mock-hyping Cosmic Blazar Dragon earlier, it seemed likely Konami would do what Konami does, but the real thing is a dream come true. Heck, the first ability alone would have made it an instant-add. The other two are just cheese. Cheese!

GET ME OFF NECROVALLEY'S WILD RIDE

[Doppleganger]

Inherent Special Summon effect, what? That did not exist originally.

[Doppleganger]

So who is watching Arc-V still?

I've been reading things and people said the series crashed and burned after a promising start, but reading the end-game spoilers it feels really creative. What gives?

There was a similar dichotomy with 5D's...so I am hesitant.

[Princess Ana]

I haven't caught up (lack of time amongst other things I want to do), but I'm not really getting the hate about it either. There are maybe some things that are a little odd, but I still think the writing as a whole seems solid.

Kin could probably do better tho

[Doppleganger]

Is it really Neon Genesis Yugelion?

[Princess Ana]

I uh...don't really know anything about NGE except "Get in the fucking robot Shinji"

[Doppleganger]

DevPro crashes WAY too much.

[Doppleganger]

blaze how I duel you (or UM)

I want to confirm if the crashes are unique to the bot or happen all the time.

[Princess Ana]

Is it crashes or DCs? If its DCs I have the same issue.

[Doppleganger]

It crashes. I confirmed with the DevPro mods/admins that it's a bot problem.

Bit annoying it is. HOW DO I ADD FRIENDS?

[Princess Ana]

I think people have to be on. I should be on Sunday (Saturday is not looking good for me)

[Doppleganger]

What's your account?

/tries to contact UM

[Doppleganger]

I beat a guy and got a replay. But the replay crashes whenever Doppelwarrior is summoned.

Halp?

[Princess Ana]

My account is EmiUPN, at least it should be.

[Doppleganger]

I should have put UPN in my name but just "Doppleganger" worked out.

I've only summoned Cosmic Blazar Dragon once. And when I did it was an overkill situation versus Cystrons.

[Doppleganger]

DevPro isn't 100% better than DN.

I'm having a lot of problems summoning Doppelwarrior in time, and needing to check every single quick effect every turn is grating. Moreover, I've accidentally summoned Tatsunoko several times when intended to summon Formula Synchron, something that wouldn't have happened on DN.

Not having to deal with rulings is great. But DevPro is a bit on the extreme in that respect.

I did summon Cosmic Blazar Dragon in a recent duel, but it was due to an accident. Had my deck properly gone off I wouldn't have touched it. It ended up being kaiju'd anyway, but I promptly won in the end.

[Doppleganger]

What's the best Rank 3 XYZ monster?

Since I use two Burning Abyss cards, and situations have arisen where I have drawn both, I'd like to make use of their abilities a bit better.

So far, all I've come up with is "Dante".

[Princess Ana]

Dante, Break Sword, Grampulse, Leviair

[Doppleganger]

I had an epic fight against kaijus (that I won).

This has got to be one of the best duels ever, I need some way to show this off.

...

tl;dr

I go first and open huge, summoning Quasar, Dark Law and Omega. I have a Farfa and two Effect Veiler in hand, and a Hand Destruction/TWTW set.

During the SP, I move Jet Synchron back to the Grave (which turns out to have saved the duel for me), summon a second Dark Law and trigger Hand Destruction. I snipe two cards, although this is actually "bad form" when it comes to using Hand Destruction.

He Gamaciel's Quasar, I Omega his hand, then he drops a bunch of Trade-Ins, Allures and whatnot to draw Interrupted Kaiju Slumber. He then destroys my field and summons the moth kaiju to my field and Radian to his.

During the next turn, I use Eater, Omega and Unknown Synchron to Trish away his hand and Radian, while summoning a Doppelwarrior with Level Eater's summon. I then summon Jet, and use Omega's effect to return it and Tatsunoko to the Extra Deck. Jet + Doppelwarrior make Tatsunoko. Then I Synchro Tatsunoko, Sqauamata and Level Eater to summon Omega again. I think I attacked then for 6900.

During his next turn he sets a Trade-In, and I TWTW it away. I win the next turn.

[Princess Ana]

You should be able to upload the replay and we could watch it afaik.

[Doppleganger]

The problem is the repay is corrupt. I crashes at random places.

I do have one, but I can't really do much like this. I can't even look back to see where I messed up and missed the chance to summon Durendal - who would have certainly saved me from the Interrupted Kaiju Slumber.

DevPro has a time limit on turns. It's hurt me a lot, so I had to rush through the end.
