Do you play Yugioh?

There's gonna be a new type of monster released in the TCG next month called Xyz Monsters (not to be confused with the XYZ series of X-Head Cannon, etc., those are a totally different thing). To summon those you need two face-up monsters of the exact same level, and you summon an Xyz Monster of a rank equal to that level. Xyz Monsters don't have a level, but a rank. It's not nearly as complicated as Synchro Monsters, either, and they're abilities are pretty good, too.

But to answer your earlier question, J, yes, they're still releasing cards. They have a new booster set out at least once a month, and new decks out every once in a while.

How have they managed to keep going for so many years? :o I thought they were dead:shock:julian_jr

So umm... how good is blue eyes white dragon nowadays with all these supercards out? :|julian_jr

Ok good, that means perhaps my old deck could still put up a fight against some of these newer decks. :P I have the sky dragon god card as well but never knew how to use it, that's about when I quit playing the game.julian_jr

If you don't know Burst Stream of Destruction, this is it: http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Burst_Stream_of_Destruction

Oh wow that would straight up win the game if playing with the 4000 life points rule. julian_jr

It's a complicated ability but for the tl;dr, your opponent can't activate spells or traps if you declare an attack with it until after its attack, and it gains abilities if I sacrifice specific monsters to summon it, and I have 2 copies of each of the monsters that I can sacrifice to give it extra abilities. It also has some good support, can be summoned fairly easily.

Nah, it's actually always been 8000, just the anime has used 2000 and 4000, and the manga has done the same. The card game itself has always used 8000.

Cloud seems to be the only one who still plays or knows what's going on in the game.julian_jr

Yeah...Nerd! Nerd! Nerd! :P You know I'm kidding Cloud. :P

How expensive are the booster packs? Are the prices lowered or still the same?julian_jr

I could have sworn that it was a bit more expensive back when I played.julian_jr

Buying decks is cheaper than it used to be, they used to be $12.99 to $14.99 a deck, now it's usually $10.99 or $11.99. Booster packs have always been $3.99.Cloud_765

Back in the day it seemed like a lot more money still. I thought decks were more expensive than that.julian_jr

That's what it was called! It was that god card that if you summoned it you won the game!julian_jr

The limbs aren't worth much anymore, they were reprinted as commons, only the head is still rare enough to be worth a lot.

Oh that's great. :x They should all remain as rare.julian_jr

Nope. Never did, never will. I do have some cards though but I don't really care for them.TopStarRacer

[QUOTE="TopStarRacer"]Nope. Never did, never will. I do have some cards though but I don't really care for them.julian_jr

I really don't know. They are old like from 5-8 years ago. If I ever get around to looking at them maybe I'll check that out. They have no value to me so money sounds nice. :D
