"What!?"" the biker shouted as Dokurorider Heisei made its way toward Bram. Bram's sword clashed against the front wheel of Dokurorider's ride, and in a single explosion, the both of them were destroyed.

And returning out of the explosion was Dokurorider Heisei carrying Dokurorider's Mechanic by his collar. The skeletal mechanic was rattling as Dokurorider Heisei - Absolute Sovereign of the Damned just stared at him for a moment. He used his other hand to pat the Mechanic's shoulder before throwing him off into the sky with a distinctive twinkle.

"I'm sure you know the Absolute Sovereign of the Damned's rule is eternal by now."

The biker grimaced. "Hmph. I'll set two cards and end my turn." he groaned, slapping the two cards onto his board. They materialized in front of him before vanishing. "Your move."

Can I ask you to stop doing the hashtag thing? You're not breaking any rules and I'm not sure how the other players feel. I just find it kinda cringe worthy.

"Hm. So you survived Bram's counterattack. Very well. It is my turn. Draw." his duel runner dispensed another card, which he swiped from the deck. He looked at it for a brief moment before putting it in his hand. Four speed counters, four cards in hand. Though he had picked up some speed near the beginning of the duel, he had sacrificed quite a bit of it for an extra card. Though it did not appear as such, the biker had a few tricks up his sleeve; the two Phantom Knight cards which could activate from the grave. It was not time yet, however.

"Let's go then. Bram. Finish what you started. Attack his other facedown!"

The vampire flaunted its new pair of wings. It soared into the air, spinning twice before diving, sword first at the Ghoulish Rider's monster.

Are you saying 6 rank Xyz dump isn't a complete gimmick?

@Ammokkx

Schtick was probably a better word; but in short, no.

I legit saw that card no less than 30 seconds ago, such a weird card XD

@Eklispe

But the card was leaked three days ago.

Yu-Gi-Oh Soul R (Still Accepting)

Yeah. Field spells do way too much now. Also. There is a card that rewards dicerolling/coin flipping coming out: Dueltainment. Among a myriad of other effects, if you rolled a dice/flipped a coin 5 times, you can draw 2 cards.

@Satoshi Kyou

Pondering whether or not to have campus guards try to enforce a rule against selling things on campus tbh

And so the first victim of the gimmick deck suffers.

@Eklispe

I'm actually quite surprised, but not really, that more people didn't make gimmick decks. With the rules allowing for anybody to have three custom cards which could pretty much be anything, a skilled enough player might have been able to make... I dunno, something like Majestic Mech, Phantom Beast (not Mecha Phantom Beast), or hell. There are enough Mirror Force cards that someone could have made a deck based on Mirror Force using the Mirror Force Dragon. Duston vs Berserker Soul so far has been shaping up to look kinda fun though.

Speaking of. I realize that the conversation on the bus seems to be pointing out how meta changes in the TCG as if that had any bearing on the game on the basis that it follows from the anime. I'm not saying this is really bad or bothersome, but it does break immersion which is definitely not a desired goal here.

"Tsk tsk tsk. How naive." the biker remarked. The Ghoulish Rider's attacking monster rammed its own bike into Bram. Before it could make contact, however, a pair of pitch black wings materialized over the vampire, protecting it.

"I activate my trap card: Phantom Knights' Wing! It grants my monster and additional 500 attack, and the first time this turn, he is not destroyed by battle!" the biker explained. Using its new pair of wings, Bram pushed Dokurorider Heisei away, back toward the side of the Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell. The Crimson Knight Vampire stood proudly, flaunting its wings as it narrowly avoided destruction.

"Go! Crimson Knight Slash!" Bram leaped from his position in front of the duel runner toward where the card had remained face down, his sword drawing downward at the set card. From underneath, the rattling of a Skull Servant. The biker nodded as he saw the blow connect and Bram returned to its original position. "Hm. Did you think such a weak monster was going to stop me?" the biker insulted.

"I will set one card face down and end my turn." he declared, a card materializing face down in his spell and trap zone before disappearing.

@Doc Doctor

Him and Ammok are having a little bit of a scuffle with one another and I'm trying to have them work it out. In the worst case scenario, I'll kick both of them and have something interrupt the duel.
