First again, yay...

But what's with this? Is it some kind of teaser card? Why the Obelisk theme or is it just the name and has nothing to do with the actual Obelisk?

oswaldo732 - 18. Nov, 16:53

Who cares you're the first?

Anyway, that's THE Obelisk... the Egyptian God Card whatever from the anime/manga.

Joenen - 18. Nov, 17:23

Ah, I see. Cool, I guess. Anyways I don't care about being first. just everywhere else on this site, there's first this, first that, it's pretty pointless but it's what I've come to expect from here. If you don't like it then get first and don't post "first" on it.

Wysten - 18. Nov, 20:41

It is him, I think they are trying to make the gods usable for the sake of coventional duels, I think by now, they come up with enough ways to kill them now. What was broken back then is not now.

TriforceMaster3000 - 18. Nov, 21:29

...Why?

Why make Gods playable? Hopefully the effects will be downgraded, I do NOT want to see the million effects of Ra that were in the anime. And why is the attribute still Divine? Meh...

Wysten - 19. Nov, 08:57

Because it really is not that overpowered in the meta, only decks that could afford torun it are the same decks that run Riveal and Plasma, and where are they on the map? XD

TriforceMaster3000 - 19. Nov, 19:27

Not about that

I mean, they previously established that the God cards were made for the anime, not the actual card game. People complained, so they made them, but they said they were for TRADING PURPOSES ONLY, and not to be used in a duel. The only people who used them were noob little kids. So why change this now? I mean, what's next, making the legendary dragons playable? Come on...

Verfalk - 18. Nov, 22:43

Yay

God Cards! Yes! Can't wait for playable Osiris! :D

supreme_slayer - 19. Nov, 00:34

For some reason...

For some reason, I don't think this card is going to be overpowered.

ShiroRyu - 19. Nov, 01:22

Sweet, this is going to be neat!
I reckon they might have effects similar to what they had on Nightmare Troubadour? Didn't seem to powerful if they could be destroyed by non-targeting effects, and tributing 2 monsters to destroy all your opponent's monsters is pretty weak in today's game really. And a 3-tribute Normal Summon is still too risky to pull off unless you're well protected.
I reckon Ra's unique effect will simply be combining the ATK and DEF of the monsters used to summon it. Maybe also the pay almost all your LP to raise it's ATK, but not the Phoenix Mode/Sphere Mode effects.

As for their common effects it'll probably read:
This card must be Tribute Summoned or Set using 3 Tributes. If this card is Special Summoned, destroy it during the End Phase. This card cannot be destroyed by card effects that target this card.

The Legendary Underdog Joey - 19. Nov, 06:45

hooray

yeah if it really is the god cards then i am happy

RedEyesFan - 19. Nov, 11:31

oh god...

this is like the last duel of GX, Yugi vs. Judai, old vs. new, Oringinal vs. Synchro.

and the colour of the card reminds me of Srike Freedom...

Diehard_Guy - 19. Nov, 12:27

YAY

This one CAN be used!!!!!!
I hope the others will come too!!!!!

CyberStardust - 19. Nov, 13:22

obelisk!

my...im wonder what will this big guy's effect gonna be? hope its not too overpowered or they would be better not ever released this card

rohitvip - 19. Nov, 17:28

Obelisk?

I hope it's a another Obelisk god card. Not the old one.

Diehard_Guy - 19. Nov, 18:56

:P

It IS the old one!

jnecro - 19. Nov, 19:29

obviously is going to be something powerful, It's still a God and divine type.

I think that it's going to have the effect of other yugioh games, but I would be happy if they change the part of being destroyed so easily for something more flexible.
After Stardust I think that anything is possible.

The ultimate god is still venomminaga.

Wysten - 20. Nov, 08:57

I think that he could be a interesting, if expensive OTK option in himself, if he can summon himself, then pay out another two monsters to blow up their field then get a direct hit. They deserve to win, it's painfully hard to pull off since it requires 5 monsters, hence needing tokens, and to ensure it actually does not get nagated with all the solemn play takes that bit more effort.

Litrally, your going to have to drain yourself to get him on the field and make full use of his effect if it becomes that of the anime.

Besides, I should rediscover the Japanese name of Slivlther or whatever it's name is, I am not using the name of some producer who wanted to premote himself as a god. XD

iggy112 - 30. Nov, 23:30

Wysten, the producer's name was Slifer, and the original name for the card was Osiris.

As for this new Obelisk card... I am sooooo excited for this to get translated into English. The new card art is freaking amazing.

rohitvip - 20. Nov, 15:02

Obelisk OTK

I think you all forgot that he can be special summoned from graveyard (until end phase) with monster reborn or premature burial and then tribute 2 monsters to clear off the field and then direct attack for a win.

CyberStardust - 20. Nov, 16:10

otk....

oh right....i forgot all about otks ....this is really gonna game break with monster reborn which makes monster reborn and anything which reborns forbidden =( the metagame gonna change drasticly with this card if effect is too strong =[]

Xeo Moon - 22. Nov, 22:55

dude

the metagame can change drastically becuase of any card thats too strong, doesnt have to be a god card.

Wysten - 23. Nov, 18:02

Premature is banned, and Monster reborn is at one, the chances of anyone pulling one are remotely rare unless the deck is stacked, I don't think reborn should factor into it.

As it stands, I think it's fine, the fact that it is a devine god type prevents it gaining anything but the most basic support, meaning reborn would be the only way to to bring it back from the grave, even then, it will die in the end phase, so it clearly must be focused on to be effective. If limited to one, it's use drops even more.

In short, it's perfectly fine, it's a expensive card with a powerful effect.

jnecro - 30. Nov, 20:57

gods can be special summoned by Dasher(in games), and that's 4000 attack without tributes.
Let's see if this god keep his effects or maybe gets something better.

Joenen - 11. Dec, 08:24

Oh My Egyptian God

OMEG. LIMIT TO ONE NOW. They call it an EG for a reason. The only way to destroy it is to use cards that do not target (if it keeps this effect). You can't chain to its sumon, it CAN be special summoned with a nice little destroy at the end of the turn. It can't be targeted, but you can kill it with vortex and torrential (if you chain to another monsters summoning, not to his summoning)I honestly won't complain about its effect, it seems pretty much balanced to me. You need three monsters to tribute which is a HUGE cost to play, but for once its acctually worth it. This is pretty balance, as long as it is limited to one. The special summon thing is OTK easy, so Three makes it a little lot too easy to be able to summon it, then again, the summon cost could make this a dead draw itself. Manthough OMEG.

Fyga - 17. Dec, 21:02

2 Notes of Interest for Both the Casual & Competitive Minded:

1. You missed the part where the summoning immunity is Normal Summon only. Strong odds are it's not being Norm.'d but Spec.'d for an OTK (What deck would have 3 monsters on the field & hasn't won anyway? A slow, inconsistent one). Odds of running into the Norm. Sum.'s immunity effect are low.

2. Bottomless Trap Hole, Hammer Shot, Smashing Ground, or Fissure coupled w/ Threatening Roar (all splashable & side-deck worthy) torments this so-called tormentor b/c none of them target. Boom, and he's gone.

The only reason I like him is b/c he's so easy to Spec. & smack for 4000 directly.

hoiguyyalp1 - 11. Dec, 21:01

If this is the comfirmed effects....then.

Its Not bad. And very playable.

Not broken, thats good.

Very well made card with effects that are balanced and easily to play around.

But, for me, I think I rather pass. Not worth my deck space.

jnecro - 12. Dec, 01:48

I like it, a little better that we all already know from games.
It's very predictably if they release Osiris and Ra that they would keep the summoning immunity and the non-target weakness.

RedEyesFan - 12. Dec, 02:01

lol...

the effect looks powerful but,
Sync. Black Rose Dragon to the field to make it godless

The Legendary Underdog Joey - 18. Dec, 03:56

playable but no longer the god

the effects they took away from obelisk is its unaffected by spell traps and monster effects which would have definitely made it a God and that after using its ability to destroy all mosters on opponents side of the field it can still attack which in this case is pretty much a OTK. But all in all Obelisk still kicks butt
