Finally, Obelisk has made his appearance.

Rakstar - 24. Sep, 13:21

FUCK YES.

I dunno why I never thought this'd come out over here, but WOOT. 8D

TheDarkAngelRocket - 24. Sep, 13:27

Obelisk for TCG

Obelisk... Now we may pray for Osiris and Ra, if that's possible, but I doubt they'll even make OCG cards for them.

ShoDan - 24. Sep, 14:00

Epic

I cant wait to build a deck around this bad boy. Its so godly and powerfull is must have it.

ShinobiPhoenix - 24. Sep, 14:05

So Shriek, who confirmed it finally?

Where did Toywiz steal their version of the info from? I'm still wondering that. God knows they aren't a news source, but I couldn't find where they got it from.

brutalmugen - 24. Sep, 15:24

yea

i can see them makin a Osiris maybe a Ra but sweeeett

Dragon King - 24. Sep, 16:09

Remember the First god cards?

Are we even sure that we'll be able to use it in a duel.
I don't see a THIS CARD CAN NOT BE USED IN A DUEL,were the card code should be at.
I have Ra,i would love to have a playable Verson to have in my deck.
But we need to see if or if not this card can be use outside of are homes.
ShinobiPhoenix - 24. Sep, 16:16

This is a LEGAL God Card

It was made for the 10th Anniversary of the game (which is still this year, but the birthday itself was last January).

It came out in Japan almost a year ago as part of all this anniversary stuff.


Drawn by Takahashi himself with an autograph. The moment we get it, not only will it be the FIRST LEGAL GOD CARD and so far ONLY one, but DIVINE and Divine-Beast will be legal selections for cards such as DNA Surgery or DNA Transplant.

Yes, you will legally be able to use DNA Surgery, declare "Divine-Beast" and all of your monsters will be "God cards" sort of. It serves no purpose, but it will just be cute to say your Blue-Eyes White Dragon is a God Card.

Of course, if Tribe-Infecting Virus was legal, you could declare Divine-Beast to kill a god card.
tsog - 24. Sep, 16:49

Lame

Dark lord zerato is so much better......
But at least this is the first legal god card

kyuubinoyouko - 24. Sep, 17:24

Bloody hell in a hand basket...

Sooooo... This is certainly gonna be fun. Lots of little kids with good cards willing to trade them for this... YAY!!! I'll keep a playset just for the hell of it, though.

An Onyx Mouse - 24. Sep, 17:54

Oh. Yeah. Woo.

So we finally get a God Card to play with. Woopity-doo. I'm not impressed, personally.

-3 Tributes? Not as easy as folks think.
-So it can't be targeted or have its Normal Summon negated...Mirror Force, Smashing Ground, Lightning Vortex, and all those other non-targeting effects that can still squish him flat say hi. (Edited to remove BTH and Torrential due to a misread on my part.)
-Self-destructing after a Special Summon...not my idea of fun, especially since I'm pretty sure Call of the Haunted can't be used on it (what with that "no targeting" thing.)
-No ability to take advantage of the Raigeki effect since you can't attack that turn.

Call me picky, but give me an Earthbound Immortal any day of the week. I'll take Battle Phase dominance, lower Tribute requirements, ability to survive Special Summons, and effects that make my opponent not want to kill it over this.

Pianoman11 - 24. Sep, 19:14

Read the Card

The card states, when normal summoned, no spells, traps, of effect monsters can be activated.

So all of those cards cannot be used if this card is summoned. It's kind of like a Tactical Espionague Unit, except for everything.
An Onyx Mouse - 24. Sep, 20:28

Yeah, just noticed that a second ago.

So the first two things I mentioned are invalid examples. Everything from Mirror Force onwards will still squash him, though, since that effect only applies to activating things in response to the Summon. After his summon has resolved, he's fair game.

In any case, BTH and Torrential would still work against him being Special Summoned.
essex4515 - 24. Sep, 21:26

Wow

The art is amazing!! The blank background actually works to focus totally on Obelisk. Very cool. Yeah! I have Slifer and now I can finally add Obelisk. Here's hoping for a Ra Phoenix mode!!

Jackalope - 24. Sep, 22:42

ToyWiz.

ToyWiz gets lots of info first. As an incentive to buying large quantities of a product distributors often give companies information early to help with sales. ToyWiz is the first to have this up and certainly the only place you can buy the card right now.

Forrenz - 25. Sep, 00:31

True, but...

...Toywiz can really gouge you, if you don't shop around...
iggy112 - 24. Sep, 22:43

HELL YEAH!!!

bherrell2 - 24. Sep, 23:30

ROFLROFL

They give us the EXACT effect of Obelisk from the video games.

This card is beast if you can get it out effectively, but with Honest, Gale, and Brain Control running around he wont be seeing competetive play, but still LOL.

ShiroRyu - 25. Sep, 00:32

Honest would work but Gale and Brain Control wouldn't (they target him...).
I do like how you can now select DIVINE/Divine-Beast for DNA Transplant/DNA Surgery. That deserves to be done for the lulz :-)
I like the added protection to Bottomless/Torrential. I agree however that Earthbound Immortals are better in most ways but it would be neat to play him anyway. I'm saddened you can't capitalise on his monster destruction effect easily but blowing up all your opponent's monsters is still pretty neat (trib two tokens for that, don't waste your real monsters!) as it lets any other monsters you have attack directly.
Play Reasoning/Monster Gate with this guy, with some added protection (Book of Moon?) to keep him out if you like.
Forrenz - 25. Sep, 00:40

The Imprisoning Mirrors help

The Light mirror makes Honest a wasted discard, and though the Shadow one cancels DARKs, your examples of Gale and Brain Control are cancelled.
And since Obelisk is the only DIVINE and Divine-Beast-type monster, the Mirrors won't have any effect on him.
ShinobiPhoenix - 25. Sep, 11:05

Gale and Brain Control TARGET you know.

Obelisk is still immune to things that target.


I think once people get the chance to really play with it and not under the restrictions of the video games, it will at least be fun. No one would play it competitively because no one plays ANYTHING competitively except the same crap they would normally play anyway.


The tyrant Neptune eating him up does make for some interesting combos. That gets around the Special Summon sickness.
alapharm - 20. Nov, 17:24

Konami ruled that the mirrors don't work on things in your hand...Honest, Kalut, DD Crow, Kuriboh and the sort that do stuff from your hand are not affected and their effects carry thru....
Forrenz - 25. Sep, 06:40

Speaking of newly released info...

Are you going to do another post about how the Stardust Overdrive SE is officially coming with [Charge of the Light Brigade] and [Tempest Magician]?
(In case anyone doesn't know that yet)

ANIMEKING26 - 25. Sep, 06:44

man idk what to say about this card =/ I wish it was a e-hero we didn't get yet to be honest.

ShoDan - 25. Sep, 10:20

Hopefully it wont be that expensive

A deck around this card would be awesome. There are much easyier otk decks to make but to have a god on the field that cant die is just awesome. First turn lay down a giant germ of nimble momanga. Then he attacks and you have 2 on the field. Your turn throw away another obelix in your hand to special summon harden armed dragon and tribute them to bring out god. And then only honest and lava golem can kill him. Or do you guys know another way to kill him?

naviassassin - 26. Sep, 06:32

To: ShinobiPhoenix and ShiroRyu

I don't think, DNA (either ones) or Tribe Infective Virus can declare Divine-Beast or Divine Type.

So even if Clear World is on the field, we cannot declare Divine. Just like in Tag Force 4 and WCS2009, we know that Obelisk is legal, we still do not have the option of selecting Divine using DNA. Hence, i am very sure the ruling state that we can declare any other Types or Attribute but not Divine-Beast or Divine using either cards mentioned.

Hope this helps :)

To Shriek:

Just a minor typo, Obelisk is Divine Attribute not light

Hope it helps :)

naviassassin - 26. Sep, 18:30

What a Title..Fail ? -.-"

Sorry, i didn't mention that Clear World has the ability to DECLARE. What i meant is DNA or Tribe Infective Virus CANNOT declare Divine-Type/Divine Attribute.

Since the Ruling mentioned it, then should be can. I am saying it from the GAME-SYSTEM point of view according to my friend. He told me about it that the NDS (YGO's WCS2009), cannot declare Divine-Type or Divine Attribute using either of the DNA trap cards. So i using the thot from what my fren mentioned. And since Konami do have a ruling on it. then can then.

Cause another friend told me about how to counter Clear World is to open DNA and declare Divine Attribute. Then there wun be negative effect so i was telling this to another friend and he told me that from playing the NDS (WCS2009), it doesn't allow to select Divine as one of the selection.

So PLEASE read carefully before replying too. I DIDNT's say Clear World has the declare effect. I know Clear World quite well just only about declaring the ruling i didn't know. But thanks to you, know that i know that there is such selection then tat makes Yugi Muto's Divine Beast useless in the real world card (Obelisk for now) IF Tribe Infective Virus is returned back to the from his long "holiday".
shadow duelist - 2. Oct, 05:05

COOOL

love the artwork of Obelisk and great affects.So I"m hearing on here that its going to be in the Jan. issue huh? Does that mean its actully going to hit the book stores in December in the united states? because shonen jump issues always seems a month later with the published title.Does anybody know if its going to be released in the book stores in December marked as the Jan.2010 issue of shonen jump?

ShoDan - 20. Nov, 11:57

@ShiroRyu

Book of moon doesnt work on obelisk. And you can set him ether. Thats one of the things i love about him. He really is a god and gods cant be put facedown. Take that crappy sacred beast. =p Im getting this card soon with 3 hardened armed dragons and i can make a awesome deck. The only thing that can stop my god monster is creature swap. But if i just put more monsters on the field this card is unstoppeble if he is summond by using hardend armed dragon. And hopefully honest gets banned cause he can kill him to. =p

ZeroFrame - 23. Nov, 16:49

killed!!

copycat can kill him!!! Neo spacien grandmole would laugh at him!!
masterofdarkness - 20. Nov, 13:15

winged dragon of ra

did you know that they are going to make a playable ra card

masterofdarkness - 20. Nov, 13:29

winged dragon of ra

did you know that they are going to make a playable ra card

J4B0i - 20. Nov, 15:06

Obviously? Why make a playable Obelisk and not a playable RA or Orisis?
