Fell asleep, my bad.
Went to sleep. It was late. Thanks for bringing it back, OP. BTW, the upcoming release is Over Rush Pack 4 (April 11), BTW.
Anyway, to add to the conversation that was going on after I left, Mike-Tan is perched on the red part of Printing Presser, not floating. The shadow is her heel, which isn't resting on the metal because it's a thin perch. And, no, she can't stand right behind the horn because that part is a giant roll of paper and is currently spinning because Printing Presser is currently printing (as evidenced by the fact that it's shooting out a sheet of paper and there's all those other sheets of paper flying around). It's not AI, unlike that DMG right above this which is absolute slop that only a blind person would like.
>>562731097Was it AI?
>>562736342If we ever get to the point where the thread is mostly AI, it might as well die. But, no, the card in question isn't AI. I don't know why AIfags need validation this bad either. Just go talk to Grok instead of me. Grok will tell you that you're correct and really smart instead of telling you the truth.
>>562733673HUH?!
>>562736658https://yu-gi-oh.jp/news_detail.php?page=details&id=2500It's part of the reveals for the pack that comes out in May.
>>562731097https://www.twitch.tv/monosync rush duel links weekly
>>562745150particular style...
>>562751117If this is about the AI thing again, that illustration isn't. Also, AI doesn't have a style. It just copies out of the actual art that it was trained on, so the art style is not an indicator of anything. The actual signs of something being AI are other things and there's none of it there. If you have trouble telling apart what is and isn't AI, look up an AI detection tool online and use that while you get used to spotting the obvious AI signs. I'm pretty sure there's some free ones out there for both images and text. I'm all up for exposing slop, but there's no need to get paranoid about it.
>>562747682Gradius with the Pot of Avarice skill is crazy. So many Ripple Laser summons in one turn. That's what the bosses must actually feel when you get there with full powerups and 3 options.
>>562747682I really thought that RE or Hero were going to completely take over the meta with the MP nerf. But it looks like it all worked out ok after all.
>>562752292the tiger print style i meant.
Just from looking at the art in already very excited for the next wave of light galaxy supportI hope it takes a long time to release Diskarma Rainac, only after the game's powercreep evolves for a while. That shit is just a generic, easier to summon, stronger Salamandeus, and I hope this wave of support doesn't include it and establishes a different identity beforehand.
>>562763818Oh. Never mind my rambling, then. Yeah, looks like the Cattle Healer thing is getting expanded. Although the way it was revealed makes it look like it's meant to be another generic, so it's probably one of those smaller groups and not a full theme.
Stella the Clad Dragon Researcher
>>562768195are they human or dragon type humanoid?
>>562768195I want to research that researcher.
>>562764963mega bimbos.
>>562733445>Mike-Tan is perched on the red part of Printing PresserIn that case her other foot is floating since her other leg isn't bent towards that>she can't stand right behind the hornBut she could stand on the surface of its main bodyEven then, that's only one thing, all the other stuff I pointed out is still there. Those papers are sloppy. If you zoom in you can see it, the text on them is just AI artifacts
>>562784761Yes, she's only perched on one foot while holding on to the horn with one hand. What's the issue here exactly? That a human couldn't hold on like that? You realize that she's an anime raccoon dog with magical powers riding a robot printing press, right? That's like grabbing a comic book and saying that it was made by AI because that dude in blue with the red cape is floating. >Those papers are sloppy. If you zoom in you can see it, the text on them is just AI artifactsIt's called scribbles. Were you actually expecting them to put real text on it? It wouldn't be readable at that resolution anyway, much less in the real printed card. And almost none of the text in card illustrations is real text anyway. It's not meant to be in English. That's such a ridiculous thing to focus on.
>>562795430didn't even notice the explorer until i zoomed in.
>>562795430The dragon would never suspect that she's hiding behind the Yugioh logo. The fire one has both of the girls too. They're not as well hidden in that one.
>>562768195SEX
>>562768195look at all of her arifacts.
>>562786217>scribblesThat's the thing, they're not scribbles. There's nothing wrong with Channel for example, you can clearly see all the symbols on that were drawn by hand.But I can't keep making my case without showing what I'm seeing, so here it is. I compared the papers to the papers from all the previous newspaper cards and pointed out all the differences that stood out to me.It might seem like a minor thing but AI is at the point now where a professional can hide it well enough that you have to focus on the little things in order to catch it (if you can catch it at all). For instance, if this art is AI, then they are definitely using AI for lots more of their art, but none of those arts have any tells. This is just one that slipped through the cracks.In general, and this also goes for the Mike-tan thing as well, humans make art with logic and AI doesn't. Instead of thinking a human made loads of weird decisions (weird illogical pose, weird inconsistent text, weird asymmetry) to produce a result that also looks weird, I would prefer to use occam's razor and say there were no human decisions.Anyway this is the last thing I'll say about it, I've presented my evidence, you can all make your own conclusions
Celestia Noodlina playable in Duel Links, (when)?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bi4hkI38gQ
>>562828818they will run out of rush duel character soon or later.
>>562828818the sooner the better
>>562823361The thing is that I disagree that the pose is illogical. You don't catch AI by looking for things that contradict reality, or else every single ninja and monster in Yugioh would be AI. You have to look for things that contradict the context. And within the context of what's happening in the illustration, there's nothing wrong with the pose. I already pointed out how you were misunderstanding the scene in the first place. And I'm not seeing any of the usual AI mistakes either, such as difficulties with object permanence or repeating patterns.As for the newspapers, the scribbles could end up looking weird if they were rotated and warped. Admittedly, they could have made a better job with them. But laziness isn't AI. And since I don't believe that the focus of the illustration was made with AI, I don't see why the background elements would. Just in case, I did go and check with a couple of AI detection tools online and none of them detected it as being AI. The tools can catch things that even humans can't.
>>562835186At a character every 3 months, it will be later rather than sooner, unfortunately.
>>562731758make it more cartoony.
>>562866995Pegasus...
>>562869154toons would be great in rush.
>>562870974Isn't that deck infamous for how unfun it is to play against because the whole gimmick is ignoring the opponent's field? I also heard that there were FTKs with the new support because, as usual for legacy support, it reads like custom cards. A deck like that really is perfect for a manga villain, but not so great for a competitive game.
>>562880630just bind it to toon world.
>nu yugioh
>>562886985Don't they already do that? They still need it to attack directly and turn on their protection effects, don't they? Historically, Toons have never been good, but any deck that tries to win by not interacting is generally disliked. And since that's pretty much what Pegasus did with them, they're never going to break away from that play style.
>>562828818If we get her, I hope all the variants come as alts
>>562887264Fuck off, yugiboomer
>>562747682Its cool that Gradius actually got some attention now but even funnier that Jointech went nuts through the meta gauntlet. Machines are far from dead
>>562910308Ultimate Flag will be up there with them when the new support gets released. Eventually.
>>562764042Diskarma Rainac being released here got jossed when the original announcement focused on a new Fusion Monster. It should only be released alongside UTS as part of another schizo Deck since it would get in the way of both LIGHT Galaxy Decks which already have full Extra Decks focused on Fusion.
>>562908287What a hot reporter.
>>562888029yeah beat toon world and all the toon monsters are destroyed.
>>562736206Respect.
when's the next box? I'm sitting on a million gems that all want to expire
>>562965740Since it's a deck build box, it will drop with no announcement. Do they ever do releases during KC cup? Because the current event ends tonight. If not, then probably after KC cup.
I hope the next product, be it selection box, deck build box or whatever, doesn't have any new dragonsI don't have any gems and I haven't even collected all of the new dragons in the latest mini box (screw desire sensor)
>>562972764I doubt it will. It's probably going to be a deck build box and we know that half of the new cards will be Pyro fusions for Manabu because of a skill link. And I think that the other half will be light fiend support because of Roa's skill buff. The skill mentions the extra deck and there's no light fiend fusions in DL yet.
>>562972764it should have high dragons.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wRGdBJWNa8Something interesting happens during the Stella reveal.
>>562995835Why is she so sad? Being a dragon is awesome!
>>562995835Corruption arc? now I'm interested
>>563000127Sure, it's probably great at first. But then you realize that you have to sleep in a cave and you don't have internet or videogames and couldn't use a keyboard even if you did. And then it starts feeling less like you're a majestic being and more like you're a lowly animal.>>563000767The alt art card is at night and the full moon is out. Maybe she's some sort of weredragon. Or maybe it's some sort of affliction and that's why she's stealing eggs. The other girl's clothes seem suspiciously well-suited for hiding an ongoing transformation like that, what with the horn-shaped hat, the eyepatch, and the bandaged arm.
>>562995835dragon aids. shouldn't go into dragon nest and take their scales/eggs.
>>563002680Is that how you get it? I thought you got dragon AIDS from, you know, "liking dragons" a bit too much.
>>563002357>have to sleep in a cave and you don't have internet or videogames and couldn't use a keyboard even if you did.Skill issueLive at the peak of a mountain or in the depths of the ocean or in space instead and turn reality into your own Minecraft server like a true Chinese dragon deityThen descend from space from time to time to turn into an emperor, stop the yellow river from flooding for the gajillionth time and ascend back to the sky.
>>563008282>live in the middle of nowhere, play with rocks, and go to China every now and thenThe life of a dragon keeps sounding worse and worse compared to how I live.
>>563007045Dragon Blight can be induced through any number of interactions with draconic entities or objects.
>>563009284I can only think of one that would be worth it and it involves dragon maids.
>>563009061The ocean is a pretty cool placeObserving the marine life, even that from the unknown depths, is pretty awesome, especially when you're a superpowered mythological deity with no risk of ever being predated upon It's not like it can't be fun. Orcas and Dolphins find ways to have fun fucking with other animals. Why can't I?
>>563009741>>563009061Mountains in Chinese mythology are like the Mount Olympus. Kunlun Mountain, for one, is the place of intersection between Heaven and Earth, the pillar supporting the sky, the ancestor of all mountains and the source of the Yellow River's flow, guarded by phoenixes and house to many dragons, like the Ice Dragon Bingyi. There are multiple delicious rare fruits there, such as the immortal peaches, found nowhere else, many heavenly festivals and many protective realms, meant to gatekeep humans, that would probably be like a water park for dragons to play in ,like the Mountain of Blazing Fire (yeah, there are mountains within this mountain. It has multiple peaks.) and the Weak Waters
