What era is it, still traditional card making

Chapter 694: Selecting Cards

  There are thirteen red divine seal level cards floating in the air at this moment, corresponding to the original thirteen races of the Azure Continent.

These red divine seal cards can form different system decks. Although the effects are amazing, there are many restrictions.

For example, this red divine seal card about the dragon clan,

This card is called [Dragon's Lair] and is a special monster card.

This card can only be activated when your deck contains only Dragon-Type Monster Cards. Place this card in your Environment Magic Card Zone, and the card on the field will not be destroyed by effects and sent to the Graveyard.

At the beginning of each turn, you can discover a "Dragon" monster card, choose one from three Dragon monster cards, add it to your hand, and allow yourself to Normal Summon an additional Dragon monster this turn.

  Basically, the effects and restrictions of these red divine seal cards are basically related to one's own race.

This also means that choosing multiple red divine seal cards is not a good thing. After all, one deck cannot use two systems.

As the core red divine seal card, only one is needed.

This also applies to the opponent, the owner of the cemetery.

  After knowing this, Ye Qiong did not rush to choose his own system red divine seal card, but chose some general purpose cards in the golden legendary card area.

Once your system is known, your opponent will definitely choose to add some targeted cards to the deck.

So Ye Qiong planned to choose some general purpose cards for his first five hands.

  There is a time limit for selecting cards. He glanced at the hourglass above the cemetery. He now has 30 seconds to make his selection.

After a little thought, he finally chose a golden legendary trap card.

This magic card is famous as "Shadow of Bubbles"

  This is a trap card that can be used as a hand trap. If there are no cards on the field, this card can be activated in your hand.

Target a monster on your opponent's field, negate the effects of the selected monster until the end of the turn, and negate the effects of Spell or Trap Cards in the same column.

No matter what you choose, you will always have to have a few hand traps in your deck.

  Otherwise, what if the opponent gets the initiative and launches a massive attack, overwhelming the situation?

For the next four moves, if nothing unexpected happens, he should still focus on hand traps.

The owner of the cemetery seemed to have similar ideas to Ye Qiong. In his first choice, he selected a golden legendary monster card called [Feather Cat Fairy].

  This card has a similar effect to [Foam Shadow], and can be activated from the hand. It is a Hand Pit Monster Card.

When your opponent Special Summon a monster, you can send that card to the Graveyard, then destroy the Special Summoned monster and add a Magic Card [Cat's Feather] to your hand.

[Cat's Feather]: When your opponent activates an effect that adds a card from their deck to their hand, send that card to the Graveyard, negate the activation of that effect, and destroy it.

  Just from the effect, you can tell that this is an incredible Hand Trap Monster Card.

Why didn't Ye Qiong choose this card in his first hand? Was it because he didn't see it?

The answer is of course not like this.

The reason why he didn't choose this card was simple: he didn't want to determine the race he was playing so quickly.

Among the thirteen red God Seal cards arranged, the red God Seal cards related to the Demon Clan, Dragon Clan, Celestial Clan, Rock Clan, Undead Clan, Elf Clan, God Clan, and Mechanical Clan all have the same prerequisite, that is, there can only be monster cards of the same race in the deck.

This also means that once Ye Qiong's first card is a monster card of a certain race, his range of choices will inevitably be reduced.

That's why he had to settle for the second best and chose the trap card [Foam Shadow] as his first choice.

  He originally thought that the owner of the cemetery would make the same judgment as him, but he did not expect that the old man did not do so.

The first thing I did was to pick a hand pit of the fairy clan.

After selecting this card, his options are quite limited.

First of all, he can no longer choose these eight races with prerequisites. With the monster card [Feather Cat Fairy], the effects of these eight red divine seal cards can no longer be triggered.

  Therefore, the only races that the cemetery owner can choose are humans, demons, dwarves, fairies, and orcs.

The range of choices narrowed down immediately.

Next, if the graveyard owner's card selection method is still so bold, Ye Qiong can try to snatch the red divine seal card that the opponent needs. After all, the rules do not state that a person can only hold one red divine seal card. Even if he can't use it, it's always right to disgust the opponent, right?

After the cemetery owner made his decision, the choice was once again in Ye Qiong's hands.

In the second choice, Ye Qiong chose a golden legendary magic card called [Lightning Strike].

  The effect of this card is quite simple and crude, with only a very brief description.

Destroy all monsters on your opponent's field.

As a general-purpose magic card, its strength is completely sufficient and there is no problem in adding it to the construction.

As for the master of the cemetery, he was very fast in selecting cards. The moment Ye Qiong made his decision, he had already added the second card to the deck, which was still [Feathered Cat Fairy]. It seemed that he wanted to make a full three of this card.

Ye Qiong was not surprised by the cemetery owner's decision. He narrowed down his choices just to get this powerful hand-trap card. How could there be less than three?

Among the cards floating in the air, there are only three golden legendary cards of the same name.

That is to say, if Ye Qiong did not grab [Feather Cat Fairy], then the graveyard owner's third hand would still be this card.

  Since the owner of the graveyard chose the card with the same name, it means that He will not choose the Demon Red Seal Card.

This red divine seal card is called [Magic Source], which is an environmental magic card.

When there is no card with the same name in your deck, you can activate this effect by placing the card in your environment magic card zone. The card on the field will not be destroyed by the effect and sent to the graveyard.

At the beginning of each turn, you can choose one of the elements "Earth", "Light", "Water", "Fire" or "Darkness", discover a magic card related to that element, and add one of the three magic cards you discover to your hand.

When you use more than fifteen Magic Cards, the effect of this card is changed to: add two Magic Cards from the three discovered to your hand.

  Since the graveyard owner chose to repeat the card, it means that he chose to give up the card [Magic Source].

This is undoubtedly good news for Ye Qiong. Now the range of choices for cemetery owners has narrowed again, leaving only four races to choose from: humans, dwarves, fairies, and orcs.

  Among them, the Dwarf deck is definitely built around the "Weapon Card", while the Orc deck focuses more on the attack frequency.

The characteristics of these two similar cards are quite obvious. Under normal circumstances, these two types of cards will only be added when needed for the construction of one's own deck. Once the owner of the cemetery chooses these two similar cards, Ye Qiong will know what route He is going to take at the first time, and the range of choices will be narrowed again.

  The right to choose was once again in Ye Qiong's hands. This time, the card he chose was a golden legendary magic card. This card was called [Designator of the Grave].

The effect is as follows: it can only be activated when targeting a monster in the opponent's Graveyard, and that monster is banished. After that, until the end of the next turn, the monster banished by this effect and the effects of monster cards with the same name as it are negated.

  The target of this card is naturally the [Feather Cat Fairy] who is about to be fully leveled by the graveyard owner.

Although this magic card cannot be used as a hand trap, it can at least ensure that your deployment will become much smoother and will not be easily interrupted by [Feather Cat Fairy].

After he selected the third card, it was the turn of the graveyard owner again. This time, he still chose [Feathered Cat Fairy], and it seemed that [Designator of the Grave] did not disrupt his rhythm at all.

  In the next two hands, Ye Qiong still chose two cards with relatively high versatility.

[Condor Feather Sweep] (Magic Card): Destroy all Magic and Trap Cards on your opponent's field.

[Holy Shield] (Trap Card): Can only be activated when the opponent's monster attacks, destroying all attack position monsters on the opponent's field.

Judging from the current situation of his five hands, Ye Qiong has not revealed his preference. Now he can choose among the thirteen races at will and select a red divine seal card that suits him as the core card of his deck.

  As for the opponent, He chose the monster card named [Forbidden Demon] for the next two moves.

This card is a purple epic card, and its effects are as follows:

When your turn begins, if the monster is still on the field, destroy all cards on both sides of the field. The card will only be destroyed by battle if it is attacked more than three times in one turn.

To be honest, Ye Qiong was a little confused by the cemetery owner's move.

This card is indeed versatile, after all, it has a board-clearing effect.

However, it is precisely because of the effect of this card that the Graveyard Master's deck is destined to be a slow-paced deck.

After all, the board-clearing effect is for both sides. Which fast-attack deck would add such a thing?

  I finally filled the field, and then a [Forbidden Demon] was summoned to disgust me?

Judging from the current behavior of the man in the cemetery, he should not be such a fool.

Therefore, the option of Orcs can be basically ruled out. For a system deck that relies on attack frequency, it is absolutely impossible to add [Forbidden Demon] into the deck.

In other words, there are only three red divine seal cards left for the graveyard owner to choose from.

Humans, dwarves, fairies,

  What kind of deck does this graveyard owner want to play?

The first five cards have been selected. Now the five cards in the Yeqiong deck are all versatile and non-repetitive.

The question Ye Qiong needs to consider now is whether he should start preparing for his own deck system.

The choice of the fifth hand can already roughly determine the direction of the opponent's deck.

Now he can slowly target while building the system,

  The only question before him was which system he should choose?

As far as personal preference is concerned, he is more inclined to choose the two cards [Magic Source] and [Dragon's Lair].

To put it bluntly, Ye Qiong can build a deck with magic amplification as its core system. He has played similar decks many times before and it is not too unfamiliar to him.

  As for the latter, it is purely a matter of personal preference.

Although the dragon clan rarely has useless cards, is it a bit too much to leave everything to luck?

Magic cards can be found randomly. After all, there is no limit on the number of magic cards that can be used in one round.

  However, monster cards are different. Usually, a duelist can only summon a monster once per turn, even if the monster does not meet any summoning conditions.

What if Ye Qiong is unlucky and finds some useless creatures, or dragon monsters with harsh summoning conditions?

It was for this reason that Ye Qiong did not make a decision immediately.

He lowered his head and fell into thought.

  The best option is undoubtedly to continue to choose general-purpose cards. After all, he only has five general-purpose cards in his hand, and he can continue to replenish them.

However, a deck formed in this way is prone to a problem, that is, the correlation is very poor.

What should he do if he gets a bunch of general-purpose cards at the beginning? Just focus on defense?

After careful consideration, his sixth choice finally chose the human race's red divine seal card.

This card is called [Brilliant Civilization], and its effects are as follows:

When the duel begins, you can choose a card from the initial deck to exchange with the card in the deck.

Whenever you summon a Human monster, you will add a "Star Counter" to this card in your deck.

When this card has three or more "Star Counters", you can revive a Human monster in the Graveyard.

When this card has five or more "Star Counters", Special Summon two Human-Type monsters from your deck.

When you have ten or more "Star Counters", you can Special Summon a monster from your Extra Deck regardless of the summoning conditions.

When you have 20 or more "Star Counters", you can Special Summon a Mysterious Monster to the field, and this effect will not be affected by other effects.

Ye Qiong chose this red divine seal card for two reasons.

First, it narrows down the choices of the graveyard owner. If he chooses this red divine seal card, then the opponent can only choose from the dwarves and the fairies.

Second, the conditions for using this card are not so fixed. Even if he chooses this red divine seal card, he will not determine the deck construction so quickly.
