The template has since been updated. All you need to do know is insert the card's name, and that's it. Example:

{{OCG-TCG card image

RE: Xnaker's Shining Hope Road

Though if the user removes the message then they'll forget it was ever there in the first place and thus whatever the other user was contacting them about won't get done. Thing is, they didn't want to talk about it on the talk page and just removed what I wrote. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 19:25, March 5, 2017 (UTC)

I didn't notice this message.

They won't necessarily forget. And if they are removing it, maybe they just don't want to deal with it, yes.

If your opinion diverges from another user's and they don't want to discuss it, well, they are the ones who lose, I'd say. In any case, you shouldn't bother with it.

By the way, if you want to clean your talk page, you could always archive it, instead of just removing its content. You can see some suggestions on wikipedia:Help:Archiving a talk page and Help:Talk pages#Archiving talk pages. Becasita ^Pendulum (talk • contribs) 17:44, March 7, 2017 (UTC)

Last Turn

Actually, I don't think the nuke effect happens the moment Last Turn activates/resolves. I checked the rulings just now. Plus, the wording indicates that it happens after the summoning.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 17:17, March 18, 2017 (UTC)

Gorz

And regarding the similarities between Masquerade and Gorz, I don't think that was intentional. It was just a freaky coincidence. RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 17:19, March 18, 2017 (UTC)

Nevermind.

Actually, never mind the "Last Turn" part. I just checked the card. Its Graveyard effect is in the Lingering category. But that means "Akyls" would still get to activate its effect.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 17:25, March 18, 2017 (UTC)

Aaaaaaand I just realized the Lingering effect activates immediately.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 17:27, March 18, 2017 (UTC)

Clear Kuriboh's Effect

Hello,

I don't know why you removed what I did on the Dark Side Of Dimensions page, because Yugi precisely says effect damage, then Aigami attacks again, we can clearely see and hear that Aigami inflict to yugi the pain that he took (it is SAID). Then yes, Clear Kuriboh's effect is not mentionned, but first the number of effects that aren't explained in this movie is big, and secondly what I wrote corresponds more to what happened in the movie than what you put back. If you disagree I would like to know why.

Thank you for reading me. --Joeri sama (talk • contribs) 16:04, March 23, 2017 (UTC)Joeri sama

There's no indication from the movie that Yugi drew 1 card by Clear Kuriboh's effect so saying he did is purely speculation. I watched the movie twice. Yugi used it against Battle Damage not effect damage. Direct damage was still possible with Dimension Summoning so it was clearly against battle damage. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 16:56, March 23, 2017 (UTC)

Thousand-Eyes Jellyfish

The tip I added was based on a tip on "Ominous Fortunetelling's" page. The second one said it was possible to use that Trap with cards that reveal your opponent's hand. So I was confused. RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 15:03, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

Amazoness Rulers

I don't remember if I did or not, but when I made that Dragon Ruler tip on Amazoness Archer's page, I described why I put it. Certain cards used in Meta Dragon Ruler decks focused on swarming or field advantage. And I knew myself that their effects can only be selected and used once per turn.

For one, Number 42: Galaxy Tomahawk, gives you Battle Eagle Tokens, each bearing 3000 ATK. So I thought that during the Main Phase 2, you could Tribute them and Tomahawk itself for 2400 extra damage.

Then there is Draccosack. Summon 2 MPB Tokens, get on the offensive with Draccosack, Tribute the Tokens during the Main Phase 1. Not as damaging as the above, but you get the point.

Use "Redox" for the "Mythic Tree-Water Dragon Combo", use them to Xyz Summon "Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon"(And probably use THAT to summon "Cipher Blade Dragon"), steal the opponent's Monster, blah blah blah.

Every time I see the Dragon Rulers being used, it's to Xyz Summon the above Monsters and swarm the field. So I thought it'd be possible using this and a host of other cards. "Return from the Different Dimension" and "Return of the Red-Eyes" are more examples. With that being said, is it possible? Amazoness Rulers?RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 02:24, May 3, 2017 (UTC)

The odds are unlikely you'll be able to swarm the field, especially now. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 11:19, May 3, 2017 (UTC)

Giant Kozaky

I find this kinda weird to ask, but you are aware of the recurring theme with Level 4 Beatsticks, aren't you? See, most Monsters who fit this critera have some sort of downside to using them.

Jirai Gumo can potentially halve your Life Points with every attack. Infernal Dragon destroys itself if it ever attacks. Tardy Orc can't attack on the same turn it is Normal Summoned. And then there's...Giant Kozaky. Unless you control a face-up copy of "Kozaky", it will destroy itself and damage you. Giant Kozaky has the highest stats out of all Level 4 Monsters. But I don't know if its drawback is the most severe of them all. Can you think of any Level 4 Beatsticks that have even worse downsides, or not?RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 02:06, May 11, 2017 (UTC)

I'd say if it's not the most severe downside, it's pretty darn close. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 11:18, May 11, 2017 (UTC)

Chaos Emperor Dragon

I heard at one point(NOT on this Wiki!) that the TCG plans on errata'ing Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End, and that Konami has announced it on their website. Is this actually true? Is Konami really going to nerf CEDEE? If so, can you actually link me to the webpage that says so?RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 16:48, May 27, 2017 (UTC)

It was already errata'd in Japan so why wouldn't it get that same errata in the TCG?--MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 17:07, May 27, 2017 (UTC)

On the manner of Mixeroid You keep saying Future Fusion is slow. But what is a slow card to a slow deck? Future Fusion is just as fast as the rest of "roids", so there's no point in deleting a legitimate strategy for a slow card in an equally slow deck. ChaosDragn (talk • contribs) 22:44, June 3, 2017 (UTC)ChaosDragn

Yet it's too slow to be useful in any Deck anymore. It takes three turns to make use of its effect, leaving plenty of time for it to be destroyed beforehand. That's what makes it a bad card. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 22:53, June 3, 2017 (UTC)

WBF

Actually, Witch of the Black Forest did not get its erratum in the TCG yet. So what you said, for the time being, is not the case. You can activate that Hand Trap's effect.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 16:17, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

Still, the erratum applies. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 16:37, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

OCG

HOW does WBF's erratum apply in the TCG? It was not updated in the countries of the TCG(America being one of them, obviously). Can you explain how these errata work? I for one, have never heard of situations like this, where an erratum put only in the OCG also applies in the TCG. Can you PLEASE explain this a little bit better?20:20, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

We're getting it anyway. Besides, that tip would only works for one side so it's kinda conflicting. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 21:00, June 6, 2017 (UTC)

Beelze

When I made that tip about REFMD, I meant when you give "Beelze" to your opponent. In fact, I thought it'd be kind of obvious. RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 23:04, June 7, 2017 (UTC)

Giving such a powerful monster to your opponent for that is pointless. You need to lay off making tips until you can make ones that are actually viable. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 23:33, June 7, 2017 (UTC)

it depends on the setup. In my BusterBlader/Red-Eyes/DarkMagican i summon both Beelze and REFMD and then give Beelze to my Opponent. And then use them to win the Game. --hanmac (talk • contribs) 15:22, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon OTKs

Excuse me if I sound like an idiot right now, but I still do not understand the problem with the REFMD tip. After giving Beelze to your opponent through Shien's Spy or Creature Swap(Preferably the former) and using "Flare Metal" to summon Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon, you attack your opponent's new Beelze. Since your opponent took battle damage from a battle involving Beelze, it will gain an equal amount of ATK. Then, since the opponent activated an effect(Albeit unwillingly) and Flare Metal still has 1 Xyz Material, they will take 500 damage. So whether REDD attacks and deals battle damage, or you find a way to deal burn damage, the loop will commence.

THAT is what I was trying to say. And as for the Last Will tip I put on REDD's tip page earlier, I was trying to come up with another Traditional Format OTK. And I am currently still trying to come up with a legal version of the OTK. For now, the basis of it is dumping Dragons from the Deck to the Graveyard, and rapidly drawing a large amount of cards. Basically, major Deck Thinning. This actually worked when I recently tested out the Red-Eyes Darkness OTK involving Chaos Emperor Dragon.

For now, I did come up with a Darkness OTK Deck involving Magical Merchant. I would post it on the forum, but I don't know how to make Decks on the wiki like most of the people here do.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 02:35, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

That's still more work than it's worth. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 11:10, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

Virus Mill

And one thing I want to talk to you about: Viruses. They only cause harm to your opponent's hand and field the moment they resolve. Then the rest of the time, they only destroy the cards your opponent draws. So why doesn't anyone use a Virus/Draw Mill Deck? I never see them being used. In fact, I'm the one who came up with the Virus/Mill mashup idea on the Wikia(As far as I know). You seem to be a guy focusing on Metagame strategies. So do you know why Virus Mill Decks are rarely, if ever used?RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 02:47, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

You've Gotta Be Kidding Me...

Are you telling me I won't be able to OTK with Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon, except with Chaos Emperor Dragon and Magical Merchant? And Conjoined Bird Renrin(That was my most recent OTK)?

I HAVE successfully used Darkness with Last Turn. Multiple times, but I'm not sure if it counts as an OTK.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 13:10, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

Not in today's format, no. Doing so in video games or with friends doesn't make your Deck successful. Besides, your OTKs all require specific scenarios to be useful and that won't happen. If you're going to make a strategy, it has to be likely to occur. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 13:13, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

Not Even With...?

Even WITH my rampant drawing and Graveyard setups, these won't work? I'm just telling you now, this has succeeded before.

Again, my OTK Decks focus on dumping cards to the Graveyard and drawing en masse. Ironically, without the use of Maxx "C".

If I can only OTK with Chaos Emperor Dragon, Magical Merchant, and Renrin, then I'm a bit disappointed. I have used Darkness in a Virus Mill Deck several times, but I want to be able to do more with that card.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 13:44, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

1. Do you have to create a new topic each time you post a message? 2. You said nothing about either of those setups in any of your tips. You're relying too much on a monster no one uses (REDD) and thinking it's going to somehow OTK by giving your opponent a powerful monster like Beelzee is ridiculous, not to mention using it for said strategy is equally ridiculous. I fail to see how you're getting so upset that I deem your gimmicky tips to be worthwhile for the tips pages. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 15:30, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

This Sucks.

I'm just going to be honest right now. I'm really bummed out. As you can imagine, REDD is my all-time favorite Monster. And to some extent, Cyberdarkness Dragon. And I'm not able to use the former effectively. My goal with REDD was to be able to use this card effectively in this format. I was barely able to come up with working OTKs. This...sucks.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 14:40, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

I Owe A Bit of An Explanation

Firstly, when someone replied to a section I made, the reply would usually end up on MY talk page. For some reason, that is no longer the case. I apologize for that. I really don't know why replies don't show up on my talk page anymore.

And it is not so much the fact that I planned on using it in the Red-Eyes/Beelze OTK, but the fact that it is difficult to use this card for its own OTK. While it is possible to perform one with Chaos Emperor Dragon, it will not be soon. Every time I see a Yugituber, they always seem to have a One Turn Kill, or even a First Turn Kill figured out. Amazoness Empress, Mobile Base, Cyberdarks(Before they got their support), Baobaboon...the list goes on and on and on! I just see people pull OTKs all the time, even with old-school cards like REDD. So I thought it would be possible for me to pull off. But it is proving to be difficult, and I am losing hope. I don't think I can do a legal Darkness OTK. THAT's what this is about. Using Darkness to its full potential, and using it the best way I can.RedEyesBurn69 (talk • contribs) 15:55, June 8, 2017 (UTC)

Plus, I felt a bit encouraged by some of the tips for some of the cards here, since they contribute to Graveyard Dragon Power. Montage Dragon, Painful Choice, Blackfeather Darkrage Dragon, Deep-Eyes White Dragon, etc.
