CH.605 GENERIC PACK OPENING CHAPTER TITLE NUMBER #18

Now that Unika and the rest of the PES are back, and admittedly preparing for another excursion, I have the peace of mind to open some packs. 

I’ll do ten packs each of , and .

Starting with Order of Chaos, naturally.

Well, I did get a super rare in the first pack, but I already had Zektahawk. And Shrine of Mist Valley. And all the other cards. So nothing new here.

Next pack.

Ninjitsu Art of Duplication is new. And as a card, it isn’t all that good. But as a potential install, it might be extremely broken. If it gives a skill that lets you make some sort of shadow clones, it would be really useful. So I’ll look into that.

Next pack.

Nothing new here, next.

Nothing new here, next.

Nothing new here, next.

Wind-Up Carrier Zenmaity is new. And it special summons monsters from the deck, which is one of the best effects for my use. Sadly it only specials Wind-Up monsters, so the pool is limited, but still nice.

Next pack.

Nothing new here, next.

Nothing new here, next.

Nothing new here, next.

And nothing new here. Also, Order of Chaos really wants me to have copies of Weights & Zenmaisures. I got three of them in the last four packs. And it is a rare.

Now let’s change sets and hope that Galactic Overlord is better for me.

----------------------------------------

Inzektor Ladybug is … an Inzektor. Nothing amazing, but not bad either. Then again, I’ve never really used Inzektors and I don’t know the deck, so it might actually be good for the common Inzektor strategies.

And Storm sucks. I can just use Heavy Storm. Or Feather Duster. Or MST.

Next pack.

Lightray Diabolos is new. And it is decent. Good stats and it specials itself. The effect isn’t the best, but I suppose there are times when you’d use it.

Next pack.

Lady of D., other than having a terrible name, isn’t a bad monster. The protection it gives dragons is not bad at all.

Red-Headed Oni is not an oni. It is a blood bat. And in terms of usability, it is somewhere between okay and bad.

And Ancient Dragon is almost amazing. Sadly its effect only activates if it attacks directly. If it activated whenever Ancient Dragon does battle damage, I think Ancient Dragon would be much better.

Next pack.

Final Inzektion is a one sided field nuke. But you have to tribute 5 Inzektor cards for it. In short, it is too expensive for actual use and I have easier board wipes.

Next pack.

Hammer is good enough.

And Inzektor Exa-Stag has the potential to have a ton of attack, but it sadly is a Rank 5 monster. If it was a rank 4, it might be worth it, but for a Rank 5, it is too difficult to summon considering that all you get is attack numbers.

Next pack.

Overlay Eater is not something I can use. Nothing really has Xyz material, except my monsters, so what would I use it on?

And Rocket Arrow Express is a train with 5k attack. Sure it has a massive maintenance cost, but I can manage that. And I just want to ram a rocket powered train into a powerful monster, because I think it would be funny.

Next pack.

Evo-Diversity is a searcher, so it is nice.

Next pack.

Bounzer Guard does a lot of things, focuses attacks on the targeted monster, makes it untargetable by card effects and gives it battle destruction immunity. That is a lot, and all of them together make Bounzer Guard quite the nice card.

Evoltile Elginero is just a ‘when; then; then’ the card. It isn’t bad, but it isn’t that good.

Next pack.

Number 25: Force Focus needs two level 6 monsters and all you get is effect negation. It isn’t bad, but it really should be a bit better. Not sure what that something is, but it should have a bit more. Maybe banish all other copies of the card you negated?

But I’m not Konami, Force Focus is still a video camera I can study. It is also an Xyz monster, so I can advance the challenge, and it is a Number so it advances Numeron Code. So while it might not be worth two level 6 monsters, it is fine.

To the last pack of Galactic Overlord.

And nothing new here.

Time for a set change. Let’s redu this. … you know. Because the set code for Return of the Duelist is REDU.

----------------------------------------

Madolche Chouxvalier is fine. It is an attack magnet. And kind of cool looking.

Next pack. 

Spellbook of Secrets searches other Spellbook cards, which is good. It is also an ultra rare.

Next pack. 

Chronomaly Mayan Machine isn’t good. Sure it counts as 2 tributes for a Machine, but there are all of 0 Chronomaly monsters that need two tributes. So it really shouldn’t be a Chronomaly monster.

But Chronomaly Crystal Skull is great. Just discard it so you can search any Chronomaly monster. Or even add 1 from the GY back to the hand.

Next pack. 

Stonehenge Methods isn’t terrible, but not all that good either.

Next pack. 

Heroic Challenger - War Hammer is decent enough. 

Heroic Retribution Sword isn’t all that great, I’d rather use a monster like Yubel or Amazoness Swordswoman if I want to return battle damage to my opponent.

And Geargiano Mk-II is not bad.

Next pack. 

Compulsory Escape Device is a bit too specific, but maybe it has a use.

And Prophecy Destroyer specials itself from the GY and has 2500 attack. So it has uses.

Next pack. 

Soul Drain is … potentially good. It might mess with Soul Magic, so it could prevent things like Janina’s scale avatar and Nevelle’s copy from existing. But I also don’t want to do that. Still something to keep in mind if I run across soul based creatures or monsters. 

Next pack. 

Temperance of Prophecy can tribute itself to summon a level 5 or higher Light or Dark Spellcaster from the deck. Which is great. Sure I need to activate a Spellbook spell before that can happen, but still a good effect.

Next pack.

Fairy King Albverdich just drops the attack and defense of non-Earth attributed monsters and people. Which includes me, so I won’t be using him.

Next pack.

Sadly nothing new here.

Still, I got a super rare and three ultra rares from REDU. That is great.

Now, before I call it a day, I’ll summon my new Xyz monsters and claim the rewards.

----------------------------------------

I have five new Xyz monsters. Four of them I got today.

Hierophant of Prophecy; Wind-Up Carrier Zenmaity; Inzektor Exa-Stag; Number 25: Force Focus; Fairy King Albverdich

That got me to 93, and the reward for getting to 90 is: Number 1: Numeron Gate Ekam + Number C1: Numeron Chaos Gate Sunya + Numeron Network + Numeron Calling

So I summoned Number 1 and Chaos Number 1, getting two more summons, raising my total to 95. So one more reward for me.

At 95, I got myself Dragon Master Lord and Saga of the Dragon Emperor.

Dragon Master Lord is really cool looking. And it has 5k attack and 5k defense. And it, sometimes, deals doubled piercing damage. 

And Saga of the Dragon Emperor can just double the attack of any Dragon. Sure it is just temporarily, but that is still great.

And as I suspected, my last reward for the Xyz challenge will be C1000 and iC1000. That will be amazing.

Also, I now have 30 Number monsters. So I can use the Numeron Code to heal people. That should be useful.

And, with C1, I have 10 Chaos Numbers. So I can use the Sphere Field.

Don’t know which will be more useful, an inescapable combat sphere or a healing ability, but both are nice.
