I Play Cards In Yu-Gi-Oh

Chapter 57 - new rules



“What do you think about the existing dueling monster game?” Seahorse sat behind the desk with his fingers crossed on his chin.

You Yu entered the door generously, dragged away the chair that was obviously prepared for him in front of the desk, and sat down.

“That’s right,” he said, “a little personal opinion on this game.”

“Is it about the flaws in the existing rules? I guess,” Haima narrowed his eyes. “You mean, about the availability of magic cards…and about the attack limit of fusion monsters, right? Bar?”

You Yu was a little surprised.

It should be said that he really deserves to be President Haima. If the opposite is Bekas, You Yu may have begun to doubt whether he used a mind scan on himself at this moment.

Seeing his surprised expression, Haima was quite satisfied, and couldn’t help humming and smiling: “A first-class duelist only needs one duel to understand the other’s heart. I have already roughly understood what you want to say through the duel.”

You Yu vaguely felt that he had heard these words somewhere before, and it seemed that a well-known Erzhuzi next door also said something similar…

Talking to a smart person saves time and effort, and the hippocampus already understands what he means without him even opening his mouth.

“Tell me what you think, I want to hear from you in detail, and why you think so.” Haima leaned back into the seat, and the old **** was like an interviewer doing an interview.

Of course, Youyu had already prepared the speech, so he almost didn’t write a speech in advance.

He briefly talked about his views on the attack limit of fusion summoning and the timing of the activation of magic cards, and cited various practical combat cases that had been prepared to demonstrate his views.

He focused this discussion on the usual use of magic cards, because this is also one of the places he feels most uncomfortable with the existing rules.

According to the current rules, Spell Cards can be activated from the hand, immediately after being overlaid on the field, or activated during the opponent’s turn, and even in the Battle Phase, when the two monsters are already at war, the damage calculation step can be activated instantly.

In this way, the role of trap cards is very tasteless. The covered round cannot be used, and it cannot be activated directly from the hand. After being drawn in the hand, it must be delayed for a round before it can be used, which makes the role of the trap card particularly useless.

In fact, Yu-Gi-Oh DM has always been like this in the early days. Most of the people who use them are magic cards, and the frequency of trap cards is far less than that of magic cards.

You Yu made his point clearly. He said that magic and traps should have their own characteristics, and they should be irreplaceable for each other.

The advantage of magic cards should be that they can be used from the hand immediately after they are handed, but they cannot be used during the battle phase or opponent’s turn.

Trap cards can be used during the battle step and at any point during the opponent’s turn, but as a limitation, they cannot be activated immediately during the set-up turn, and they must be delayed by one turn to function.

In fact, this is only the most basic. In Yu Yu’s opinion, the activation speed of monster effects, magic cards and trap card effects, quick-attack magic and counter-trap effects under the existing rule system is also messed up.

However, the chain processing and timing of effects is the most complicated part of the Yu-Gi-Oh! battle rules system, and You Yu doesn’t expect the rules to be perfected to that level immediately.

After all, most duelists are still worried about the painful new rule of “superior summons require sacrifices”, and it is indeed difficult for them to understand the high-tech concept of timing.

In this part, he didn’t spend much effort to convince the president of Haima, because he soon found out that the president seemed to have really reflected on this part of the rules.

However, in some parts, the president still refused to give in completely.

“What you said about the need to distinguish between magic cards and trap cards, and they cannot be replaced by each other, is indeed reasonable.” Haima said, “You said that magic cards cannot be activated during the opponent’s turn, which is indeed more reasonable. But you said Not being able to use it during your own combat phase is ridiculous.”

You Yu raised his eyebrows.

Is it absurd?

Why do I think it’s more outrageous for you to open the cover card when you declare an attack on the opposite side, Su Sheng, the dead, and trap the attacking monsters on the opposite side?

Then, regarding the “Attack Limit of Fusion Summoning”, You Yu tried his best to finally let President Haima let go…

Haima’s reason is simple: “If I can attack in the round of fusion summoning, then if I fuse and summon the invincible ‘Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon’ in the next round, and attack immediately, wouldn’t the duel be over in an instant?

That’s absurd! This kind of thing affects the balance too much, don’t talk about it anymore. “

You Yu was speechless.

What a god, the blue-eyed ultimate dragon… You really think everyone uses 502 glue to fuse the three white marriages and one and glue them all together like you?

And three blue eyes and one fusion… What’s so proud of just changing four cards to a white board with an attack power of 4500?

Not to mention others, you played like this when you were dueling with Wang Xian. If you stepped on a sacred shield-mirror power or magic tube or something, wouldn’t it explode on the spot?

However, Yu Yu couldn’t help but admire Haima, at least he seemed to be a conscientious president who was trying to balance the game.

This is the first time he sees someone adding restrictions to himself on the grounds that “such rules will make me too strong”, which is in stark contrast to the company where he traveled through a former game director who could only “SoCooooool” all day long and the game balance was indescribable.. ….

However, Yu Yu still did not give up. He tried his best to explain to Haima that the method of fusing the “Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon” with his hands requires a lot of cards to be consumed, which is inherently a high-risk behavior, and it should have a high reward.

Or it would be better to say that you can use four cards in one go to exchange for an ultimate dragon. As a result, you can’t attack this round and can only wait for the opponent to solve it in the next round. That’s called serious imbalance…

In the end, Haima rolled his eyes: “Humph! Defeat my ‘Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon’ in one round? That’s impossible!”

You Yu: “…”

“There is no need to continue discussing this point.” Haima waved his hand, “If I can attack immediately in the round of fusion summoning, doesn’t it mean that I can use the three blue-eyed white dragons to attack first, and use the fusion handle during the battle phase. The three bodies fuse into the ultimate dragon and then continue to attack? Do you think this is reasonable?”

Is it reasonable? Certainly not reasonable.

……So you? Instead, you deleted the rule that “magic cards can be activated during the battle phase” for me, Soul Dan!

You Yu found out that even a super genius and top duelist like Kaima Seto, after all, has long been accustomed to the existing framework of dueling monster rules.

It is not easy for him to listen to his own opinions and make so many changes. However, some long-term habitual thinking caused Haima to not be on the same channel as You Yu in many parts of his thinking, and it was no use talking to him…

In the end, You Yu put forward the concept of “Battle Rewind”.

This concept has indeed aroused the interest of the hippocampus.

“During the battle step, if the number of monsters on both sides changes, can you reconfirm whether to attack or not?”

Haima held his chin and pondered for a while, his eyes twinkling.

“…Interesting, really interesting.” He nodded and said, “This may indeed be feasible, but if it is actually put into operation, we need to consider more situations and do some tests.”

You Yu nodded in understanding.

For such an important change to go live, testing is definitely necessary. However, judging from the interested reaction of Haima, he felt that there should be some drama.

However, Yu Yu immediately thought…after the battle revolves back to this concept, will Haima be trapped by himself?

For example, the famous anime scene he made up in his mind before…

……

Dark Game: “I attacked the ‘XYZ Dragon Cannon’ on your field with ‘Osiris’ Sky Dragon’!”

Haima: “Hahahaha at this moment, I activated the ‘Warp Matter Teleportation Device’ to remove the monsters on my field from the game! The Sky Dragon has lost its attack target, and your attack is invalid!”

Dark Game: “Haippo, didn’t you read your own rules carefully? The moment you removed the monster caused a ‘battle rewind’. I attacked directly with the sky dragon, and you lost the seahorse!”

Haima: “Nani, I forgot! Damn game ah ah ah…”

……

Hmm… Probably not, right?

“A lot of your ideas are very interesting.” Haima said, leaning back in the chair, “I can see that your understanding of dueling monster cards is very unusual…different from some mortal duelists who have no talent.”

(Patting the table in the city: It’s not going to go away, is it?)

Although Kaiba Seto is very stinky and looks arrogant anytime and anywhere, in fact, he is relatively easy to communicate with people who have gained his approval.

Take, for example, the Muto game, which he considers his number one enemy.

Although Haima always likes to be cynical and sarcastic every time he sees the game, and disdains the friendship that the game pays attention to, but whenever the game encounters any trouble, the president is the most positive, and at the same time, he always likes to say something, “Don’t get me wrong. It was because of XXX reasons that I did it and didn’t intend to help” and so on.

“Your suggestion has given me a lot of inspiration. The rules should be adjusted again before the game starts.”

Haima said, paused, and a sharp light shot out from his blue eyes.

“…I originally hoped to invite you to work at Haima Company and be in charge of the planning and adjustment of the dueling monster department…but forget it.” He hummed and smiled, “I know you are like you. Such duelists will not be moved by money, nor will they want to be tied to the hippocampus.”

You Yu: “?”

What? Why not?

Gan! President, you are tempting me with dirty money! How can you give up without even trying?

Are you still a real duelist?

“However,” Haima said after changing the conversation, “the rule adjustments you just mentioned will require a lot of testing in the follow-up. Time is running out, and I can only postpone the Duel City competition for a week at most. All tests and adjustments must be completed within the remaining time.

So if you’re interested, I hope I can invite you as a special advisor to the Dueling Monsters department to oversee this part of the revision work to ensure that the new rules don’t have any loopholes.

This job does not require you to stay in the Haima Group all the time, nor does it require you to report to work every day. I just need your opinion and your deep understanding of this game.

I don’t trust so-called professional designers to make a duel monster game what it should be. I need a real duelist to be in charge of this job. “

You Yu probably understood.

In fact, it was Haima who hoped that he could make a name for himself in the department and make real-time adjustments to the follow-up rules for dueling monsters. After all, there will be more and more new cards, the game environment will continue to change, and the rules will need to be adjusted accordingly.

And if he can be named as a consultant, he is equivalent to the communication link between the Nightcrawler World and the Haima Group. The task given to him by President Tang Zeli can be considered completed, killing two birds with one stone…

While thinking about it, You Yu listened to Haima and said again: “The salary will naturally be relatively low because it is only a special consultant. If you have no opinion, the first month’s salary will be this amount…”

The president pushed a cheque that was apparently already prepared down the table.

“No problem!” You Yu glanced at the check hastily and agreed immediately.

Remuneration? Hehe, he doesn’t care about this kind of thing at all.

The reason why he accepted this job was to live up to the expectations of the president, and for the future of the card game duel monsters!

…… But then again, President Haima really gave a lot……
