Ok I am playing this game on ROM since some days ago. This game is by far THE best representation of the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG. This game has the biggest number to date, and PRIORITY is in this game. Sure there are bugs, but minor ones. In fact from what I see there are no bugs per say, just how cards are supposed to work. Like Rope of Soul has this odd activation requirement, like it does not activate when your monster dies in battle. Also
De-Fusion will not Special Summon a
Cyber Dragon and a
Proto-Cyber Dragon.
Right now this is about as close as we can get and I am testing out different aspects to the rulings and gameplay. There is a declare your attack target, then battle step, then damage step. Then there is priority. Right now I am testing out scenarios with
Water Dragon and this has produced such a good response.
Scenario A-1
(1
Water Dragon,
Oxygeddon,
Blowback Dragon out).
I activate
Symbol of Heritage to Special Summoned 1
Hydrogeddon. I respond to the summon with
Torrential Tribute. I chain to
Torrential Tribute with
Offerings to the Doomed. Chain link resolves as
Offerings to the Doomed <
Torrential Tribute.
Water Dragon is destroyed first and everything else is destroyed. The effect has missed its timing.
Scenario A-2
(1
Water Dragon, 1
Oxygeddon, and 1
Blowback Dragon out).
I activate
Symbol of Heritage to Special Summoned 1
Hydrogeddon. I respond to the summon with
Offerings to the Doomed. I chain to
Offerings to the Doomed with
Torrential Tribute. Chain link resolves as
Torrential Tribute <
Offerings to the Doomed.
Water Dragon and everything else is destroyed at the same time.
Water Dragon activates its effect allowing me to Special Summon 2
Hydrogeddon and 1
Oxygeddon.
Scenario B-1
(1
Water Dragon, 1
Oxygeddon, 2 Hydroggedon, and 1
Blowback Dragon)
I activate
Bonding - H2O and Tribute 2
Hydrogeddon and 1
Oxygeddon.
Water Dragon is Special Summoned. In response to the summon I activate
Torrential Tribute, then chain with
Offerings to the Doomed. The chain numbering is [1] TT and [2] OTTD. The chain link resolves with
Offerings to the Doomed destroying the newly summoned
Water Dragon, then
Torrential Tribute destroys the other monsters on my field. The first
Water Dragon in the Graveyard has missed its timing to activate its effect. The
Water Dragon sent to the Graveyard with everyone else has the chance to activate its effect and Special Summons 2
Hydrogeddon and 1
Oxygeddon.
Scenario B-2
(1
Water Dragon, 1
Oxygeddon, 2 Hydroggedon, and 1
Blowback Dragon)
I activate
Bonding - H2O and Tribute 2
Hydrogeddon and 1
Oxygeddon.
Water Dragon is Special Summoned. In response to the summon I activate
Offerings to the Doomed, then chain with
Torrential Tribute. The chain numbering is [1] OTTD and [2] TT. The chain link resolves with
Torrential Tribute destroying every monster on the field, then Offerings to Doomed resolves without destroying
Water Dragon. Both
Water Dragon are able to activate its effect and form a chain and Special Summons 3 Hydroggeddon and 2
Oxygeddon in total on my side of the field.
Scenario C-1
(1
Water Dragon, 1
Oxygeddon, 1
Blowback Dragon)
I activate my face-down card
Special Hurricane by discarding Seal of Heritage. I chain with
Offerings to the Doomed and target
Water Dragon. I chain again with another
Offerings to the Doomed and target my
Blowback Dragon. The chain numbering is [1] SH [2] OTTD - WD [3] OTTD - BD. The chain link resolves with
Offerings to the Doomed destroying
Blowback Dragon, then
Offerings to the Doomed destroys
Water Dragon, then
Special Hurricane resolves without effect since no other monster is destroyed by its effect.
Water Dragon then activates its effect and Special Summons 2
Hydrogeddon and 1
Oxygeddon.
Scenario C-2
(1
Water Dragon, 1
Oxygeddon, 1
Blowback Dragon)
I activate my face-down card
Special Hurricane by discarding Seal of Heritage. I chain with
Offerings to the Doomed and target
Blowback Dragon. I chain again with another
Offerings to the Doomed and target my
Water Dragon. The chain numbering is [1] SH [2] OTTD - BD [3] OTTD - WD. The chain link resolves with
Offerings to the Doomed destroying
Water Dragon, then
Offerings to the Doomed destroys
Blowback Dragon, then
Special Hurricane resolves without effect since no other monster is destroyed by its effect.
Water Dragon has missed the timing.
Scenario C-3
(Everything is exactly the same as Scenario C-1, except
Premature Burial was discarded to activate
Special Hurricane and I activated Seal of Heritage to Special Summon 1
Hydrogeddon in Defense Position.)
The chain numbering is [1] SH [2] OTTD - WD [3] OTTD - BD. The chain resolves with
Offerings to the Doomed destroying
Blowback Dragon, then
Offerings to the Doomed destroys
Water Dragon, then
Special Hurricane destroys
Hydrogeddon.
Water Dragon has missed the timing.
The reason I bought this up is to sure that this is pretty much as accurate as we are going to get with rulings and gameplay mechanics without waiting for rulings and what not from UDE. It finally makes sense. It is not the CHAIN LINK itself that would have prevented it, it is the fact it still needs to be the last thing to resolve. If
Water Dragon is destroyed first by
Offerings to the Doomed and then
Torrential Tribute destroys everything else the effect will not activate. However, if it was reversed and
Torrential Tribute destroyed everything first it would. So, if I Special Summon
Water Dragon, my opponent responds with
Bottomless Trap Hole, I can then chain with
Torrential Tribute saving my monster and getting my monsters back. This pretty much is what I had wished would have happened in the situation.
