I love early normal monsters. Shit would be called consumer of all realities "This creature is believed to be older than the known universe and shall outlive it. Its powers can wipe out entire solar systems with ease. And it would be a level 6 warrior with 1700 Atk

"which means we'll never get a duellogs top ten about them"

TOO REAL

[furymonger]

We all know jerry beans man is the best normal monster hands down.

Fun fact: In Japanese, Doma The Angel of Silence "Rules over death, " and decides who lives and dies by glancing at them. So "the end of existence" is a weird attempt at a child-friendly localisation for 'death.'

This is one of the best Twitter Threads we've had recently. I was laughing my head off the entire time. I legit want to sit down with my friends and just powerscale normal monsters for several hours now lol

Pro mtg player Luis Scott Vargas created a format for magic that is basically this twitter thread. If you argue your card should be able to do something on flavor grounds and your opponent agrees, it can. And an impartial “flavor judge”resolves flavor disagreements.

Surprised nobody mentioned Boo Koo. I mean it is literally the incarnation of reading, the weakness of all duelists.

Doma combos with the candle of fate! When the candle runs out, the duel ends because the opponent's fate is decided, good or bad. With the duel over, it's the end of existence, and Doma reigns supreme!

It was nice of Konami to invite otherworldly monsters to write their own card effects, but they could stand to be a little more humble.

Mekk-Knight Avram: When this card is summoned, your opponent must read this card.

I feel the new prize cards, Anotherverse, imply they would work like Thunder Dragons. Having strong in hand, gy, field, and banish effects. But nah they’re vanillas. But shoutout to Jesse Kotton for being like 2 YCSs away being the first person who could do an Anotherverse archetype deck profile.

I used to summon metal armored bug in day care and use its flavor text which says it destroys everything in its path. I literally dragged it across the carpet in a big squiggly line and if my opponent placed one of the cards where the bug was, in its “path” so to speak, I made them send it to the grave yard.

One thing I love is that if you go back to I guess when they started putting horns on em, there's a bunch of monsters with text that basically reads "look out, he's gonna poke ya!"

[RoboJay-jqcu]

Me and my brother used to play a format we called Duelist Kingdom which was basically this.

If you could come up with an effect that fit the flavor text, it counted as an effect of that monster. For example Mystic Clown (edit: was in the vid) had the flavor text "nothing can stop the attack of this powerful creature" which we read as "attacks directly and is immune to effects during battle".

If I have time I'll write out some other effects in the replies or something.

Lightbringer Lucifer is a representation of a character from the game Monster Strike, which has a lot of crazy powerful entities. Sadly the collab was Japan only but it lead to that card and a common/Millenium Rare reprint of Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon.

[CamKoudo]

Love how towards the end every card was just being compared to Neo Aqua Madoor 😂

[stardust]

Wattaildragon makes your opponent get into jail for 2500 heliocycles if they take control of it or suck it with something like Anima

[nicholasrogers]

I know it it's not exactly on topic with power level, but Gunkan Suship Shari is still easily my favorite normal monster flavor text. How can you deny a flavor text about a monster's actual flavor?

[mophead]

MBT and Dire single handedly carrying Twitter by themselves.... Their backs must hurt.

[DoctorrDude]

i hurl flying fish across the room and use all 3 wishes to fulfill jerry beans man's belief that he is the strongest
