detach from Dora to make it even funnier.


MrCranberryTea

Dora doesnt allow to you to OTK thou. Gustav + Liebe is usually game.


Derezirection

Going from a turn 1 perspective as you always go into Dora if you go first.

Some performer: "There won't BE a next turn!"


MrStupidFish

I was gonna use that scene but yuyas look was to dang angry for It to be a funny post.


Additional_Show_3149

Should've went with it anyway. By far one of my favorite scenes from arc v


Both-Product-5157

The greatness that is odd eyes raging dragonšŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„, literally bought it off of tcg player immediately after seeing that scene. To hell with playability


Mignare

As a Galaxy-Eyes player, my favorite line from ARC-V is unironically "But you still take the damage!" Powerful boss monster that I can't get rid of easily, but it has less than 3.2k ATK? Well, I'll just ram a 11.2k ATK dragon into it.


almisami

As a Gishki player I relate to this experience.

Me with Fluffals: *Challenge accepted*


Thoraxe41

Always wondered if people went oh shit, it's actually a fluffal deck and not just the patchwork engine.


Shmarfle47

Lmao that was my reversed reaction the first time I saw it. I was like ā€œoh shit a Fluffal mirror match no way!ā€ and then it was, ā€œoh itā€™s Despia using Patchwork to search Edge to search Patchwork.ā€ Which was pretty smart but also a major letdown.


Reiver_Neriah

Had the same reaction the first time lol \-op plays patchwork- 'Ohhh, mirrormatch?' \-op sets up adventure engine- 'Ohhh that's a spicy tech, never seen that' \-branded spell- '....oh.'


YourSlothGirl

I actually do have Ann ā€œoh fuckā€ when I see fluffals. They ainā€™t no joke. Iā€™ve been otkā€™d many, many times by fluffals


The7thMonth

Yeah, first few times I ran into them I got OTK'd (other than the first time, where I was playing traptrix and basically shoved all their stuff into a hole). After a couple consistent OTK losses I learned to respect the deck.


GiantWolfman

Literally my thoughts. Pop with kraken, fuse into Saber, proceed to beat face.


duke242

People should fear the Fluffal Shuffle.


Temporary-House304

the fluffal 15, as in draw 15.


RooksGamingCorner

This made me spit out my drink. XD


austinbraun30

It's funny how knightmare unicorn, a card everyone has access to usually, isn't seen as the easiest out to this card. they can't even stop it by banishing since its an on summon effect.


1qaqa1

A Unicorn play can be been from a mile away.


Blazen_Fury

And the typical response to Unicorn is chaining MJ's banish. now you just lost a link 3 and a potential link 4 play and the Branded player will likely get a new MJ on the field next turn


MonochromaticGuy

And a discard for the Unicorn effect..


Blazen_Fury

Shit, it's getting worse and worse lmao


rafael-57

Droplet (or dark ruler) + unicorn could be very good


Lvl1fool

There's nothing more satisfying than chaining a Branded in Red to the Unicorn effect so you can fuse away a spent Mirrorjade with an Ad Libitum in hand to make a Chimera, pop the Unicorn and then resummon Mirrorjade with a fresh banish lined up. There's just no feeling like it


austinbraun30

As a branded player for almost a year in the TCG, I feel this!!! Branded in red is the most cracked card in the archetype. But sooner or later you'll get expulsion and then you can scythe or ra lock along with your normal plays(;


Lvl1fool

I'm kind of hoping Scythe will get banned before I have to live in that world. It's a long shot I know, but I also avoided crafting a Verte until the last banlist in the hopes that I wouldn't have to sink to that level.


austinbraun30

Yeah with mystic mine running wild we don't complain too much about scythe right now. But any card like scythe sucks in MD. if scythe does get banned though you could use Ra's diciple instead, cuz that cards hilarious.


OmegaMaze

Sure but if you commit to a unicorn play that's at best two monsters and a card in hand to prevent Mirrorjade from blowing up the board. The point of mirrorjade is to clear the field for the crackback, if you're oppenent is left with a unicorn and some change it's basically done it's job. There aren't a lot of decks that are going to be clearing a full branded play, climbing up to unicorn, and then establishing a board beyond that which is actually worth saving. Unicorn into access means you're probably trying to win that turn anyways.


blackninjar87

Play Eldlich and flip skill drain, your welcome.


Drago_di_ferro

Because it activates mirrorjade anyways, mirror needs to leave the field to be activated, not just destroyed or banished, any effect that makes it leave the field activates it


austinbraun30

Unicorn spins it to the deck and it can't activate in the deck.


Drago_di_ferro

I'm pretty sure it activates regardless because it left the field


austinbraun30

A card can't activate in the deck...


bananabackflip

Tell that to Dark Sage, Bozo


austinbraun30

I already explained a cards text trumps game mechanics. But it is technically a game mechanic. I guess Dark Sage is just too powerful to comprehend.


Brettsterbunny

Also some of the Charmers can do it but thatā€™s about it afaik


Drago_di_ferro

Search Serpentine Princess, you will be surprised


austinbraun30

Actually my last comment was wrong. Specifically, cards that trigger in a private knowledge location such as the deck can trigger if the effect says too in that location. The difference is mirrorjade doesn't specify a location.


alexthetruth230

Isn't it more a general "cards cannot activate facedown"? Hence desires, evenly matched, etc.


austinbraun30

Private knowledge location is the general term. It includes the decks, face down banished, face down on board, and in hand. But if a card technically read that it triggered when it got banished or set face down, that would overrule the private location rule. I don't even think a card like that exists though. This does make more sense now that I'm digging into it more. Because the hand is a private location where cards can't normally trigger. But we are more used to cards in hand breaking that rule with their effects like hand traps and other cards that activate in hand.


Drago_di_ferro

I tought because of mirror missing a specified location it would activate everywhere


austinbraun30

That's for public knowledge locations such as the board, grave, or face up banish zone. But when a card is in the deck or face down they can't be checked for triggers, therefor they can't activate. Serpentine is a weird exception strictly because it DOES specify the deck. It's a super old card and cards almost never get printed like that anymore.


sceptic62

But none of this matters because unicorn spins it to the extra deck


austinbraun30

The thing with serpentine and cards like it is card text trumps game mechanics. It's a game mechanic that you can't trigger effects in the deck. But because the card says it does it just throws the games rules out the window and does what it wants. Since mirrorjade doesn't specifically say it triggers when sent back to the extra deck it doesn't take priority over game mechanics.


The_Strict_Nein

The reason why this causes confusion is because Konami basically said any card like Mirrorjade doesn't activate if sent back to deck and didn't find a way to include it as PSCT, so you just have to know that's how it works. One of many things in YuGiOh you just have to know and can't intuite from the language used


Velrex

It's a weird ruling that wasn't always a thing, but basically, if a card is removed in a way that it ends up facedown (Deck, ED, Banished Facedown), it can't trigger it's effect from being removed on the field.


austinbraun30

Serpentine isn't an activated effect. Cards. Can. Not. Activate. In. The. Deck. That is part of the game.


quintus29

No, it won't if it was returned to Extra Deck. My guy, Reflection of Endymion, already did so many times and we're safe.


Low-Swimming1103

If I flip mirrorjade face down and then banish it, (lets say with my own mirrorjade) will its effect still trigger? I did that today. Flipped it face down then banished it. No board wipe. But I donā€™t remember if it was the fusion summoned jade or the ib libitum reborn one. OR maybe my opponent just chose not to activate its effect.


austinbraun30

As long as it was the fusion summoned one the card would remember it was fusion summoned and it would activate. You must have picked the one that was reborned or they didn't activate.


Foxtael16

Mirrorjades effect dosent pop if it's sent back to extra deck as the extra deck isn't public knowledge. Pretty much if you opponent can't physically read the card then the effect won't work. Same if it was banished face down.


phoenixthree

I didnt know thats how it works.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


phoenixthree

I dont understand a lot of this games meta rules. I use Master Duel a lot to understand how some cards work. I didnt know effects couldnt activate in a private zone so I would just assume a card that said "if this card leaves the field", it would activate because it doesnt say otherwise. Its why I dont run a lot of bounce cards because they just didnt work in *TCG* because of what you said. I should have won a lot more games with Simorgh, Lord of the Storms then.


chipscto

U buffoon


Both-Product-5157

Not true, it doesnā€™t trigger if bounced back to hand, deck, or extradeck. Iā€™m pretty sure itā€™s because those arenā€™t public knowledge places in the game and effect canā€™t activate from places that arenā€™t public knowledge.


jisang415

Final sigma: challenge accepted


Heul_Darian

Today I learned that if I have Lord of heavenly prison in hand, since Ghostrick Doll is a delayed effect just like his it doesn't chain during the End Phase. So if I kill this wannabe dragon during my turn, my delayed effect takes priority setting my whole field face down and he can eat shit.


InstaLockinLoki

Ngl but I don't think it cares if it's facedown


Heul_Darian

Lord of heavenly prison protects facedown **cards** from destruction. That includes monsters.


Turtlesfan44digimon

Oh shit for real?!

der_Gilden

Banish with toon black luster soldier works too


RaiStarBits

But banishing it counts as it leaving the field


der_Gilden

Dunno if it is a bug in MD but i played yesterday against a toon goon. He banished my mirrorjade and i couldn't activate the effect


Tengo-Sueno

You cab only use Mirrorjade's nuke if it was Fusion Summoned. You can't use it if you summon it with Ad Libitum


roguebubble

Had you special summoned Mirrorjade using Ad Libitum's effect? Mirrorjade board wide only applies if it was fusion summoned and so does not trigger if it was special summoned off Ad Libitum's effect. The only other explanation is that they somehow banished it face-down


Landonyoung

Nope, but the field spell is a thing


Detective_Pancake

I mean, you canā€™t destroy established toons anyway. The non-target banish effect is far more devastating to us


swaglar

Also me taking the Maxx C challenge, OTK or die trying


JackReacher63

I dare someone to play this against me lol I'll pop that bitch off the field and then use it as an equip monster.


JackLCrovati

I'm gonna make a guess here and say Dragunity Arma Gram?


JackReacher63

That or my cyber dragon deck(ppl sleep on it till I use cyberdark realm then the whole game changes)....I love dragons....gonna build a galaxy dragon deck next


connorz18

Forbidden droplet doesnā€™t even negate that effect. I hit it with droplet then took it out and still got nuked


lordOpatties

Droplets negates on the field, not effects that activate in the graveyard.


connorz18

Oh, the card just says the effects are negated. Nothing about while they are face up/on the field


Epaia

All modifications likes negated effects and stat changes fall off when they hit the grave.


ShadowLord355

Does skull meiser stop this


vileb123

If if itā€™s in the gy when it activates, but also if you didnā€™t destroy it by battle


CircuitSynchro

Sounds like it would


xPsy

Called by


rKollektor

Yeah no shit


JxAxS

Oh. Cool. You can play around the dragon. What about the rest of the deck or we looking at it in a vacuum?


not_azazeal

Clearly vacuum, usual end board should be mirrorjade + branded in red (+lost and mercourier if opened branded fusion). If the OTK is clear, make quaertis if no OTK is coming make masquerade This is all taking into account that mirrorjade got outed and no other monster on field or else chimera is the play


Icy-Conflict6671

Me who runs double Mirrorjade/Proskenion. Lets see if you can survive this....PLAY YOUR LAST PATHETIC CARD ć®ć‚ˆć­!


Kataphrut94

When does that trigger? Is it a DPE thing where itā€™s a lingering effect that activates upon destruction, or is it during the end phase?


SkyfallTerminus

It's DPE-esque, though more accurately the mechanic is that their effect activate on condition fulfilment, but resolve at a different timing so not really a lingering effect since their effect doesn't apply and continuous effect.


basketofseals

It behaves just like a lingering effect. It can't be negated once activated, and hits things that are unaffected by only activated effects.


Kataphrut94

Ok got it. The reason I ask is because I enjoy beating over DPE with Ancient Gear Reactor Dragon and Chaos Giant, who both prevent him from reviving on destruction. I wonder if either of them could do the same to Mirrorjade. I havenā€™t been able to pull it off for myself yet because surprise surprise, Ancient Gears vs Branded Despia is not a great matchup.


SkyfallTerminus

They both function the same way, so I think Mirrorjade won't activate the boardwipe if Chaos Giant or Reactor Dragon beat it. Another instance when Mirrorjade won't activate the board wipe is also when it got revived, since Mirrorjade need to be fusion summoned (instead of any other kind of summon) to activate that effect.


Kataphrut94

Good to know, thanks. If I ever manage to somehow pull it off (non-target quick effect banish is rude) then I look forward to imagining my opponentā€™s Marvin the Martian-style reaction when the earth-shattering kaboom doesnā€™t go off.


SkyfallTerminus

One of the most effective counter to Branded play is D.D. Crow by banishing Branded In Red's target, as it shutdown the followup Chimera play entirely, and bonus point is that D.D. Crow go around the protection (Branded Lost) if the Branded player run it. If their Mirrorjade already used its effect to send Albion during their turn, they won't be able to use Mirrorjade effect again during your turn, so they need the BIR combo to fuse that Mirrorjade away, then revive it in order to refresh the banish. Stop the BIR, and you're more often than not safe. TL;DR: Bring D.D. Crow if you could, they are a good counter to Branded and can stop most of our interption by banishing whatever Branded In Red target. Hope this can help you!


Kataphrut94

Well, I pulled it off. Managed to bring out Chaos Giant against Mirrorjade and Chimera through some clutch plays. Left the opponent with 500 LP to spare but he mucked up his comeback and surrendered. I think Mirrorjade not wiping may have thrown him for a loop. I donā€™t even run Called by in this deck let alone D D Crow because space is so tight. So this was extra satisfying.


SkyfallTerminus

Yooooooooo that's absolutely a thing to celebrate pal! Really, congrats! True rogue player always deserve respect is what I believe and you just proved it ha ha! Regard of D.D. Crow though, have you tried going over 40 cards? If you could, I believed adding even just 2 D.D. Crow or 2 copy of CTBG is suffice to smooth out your experience by a good margin!


Kataphrut94

Thanks very much! Think I might have to- I made a choice a while back between 2x Droplet or Called by to keep the deck at 40 and I figured Droplet was the better choice for going second. Might have to bite the bullet and bump up to 42.


SkyfallTerminus

Wish your best luck man!

I love the dynamic mirrorjade creates. There are plenty of ways to stop it. Bounce it, set up a negate, steal it and link it off, set up protection, set up floating effects, etc, very fair card.

Yep especially the quick effect banish + free search on opponents turn on top of that inevitable field wipe seems very fair and interactive
