      Same. I feel they were on the way to getting but people hated MR3 with MR4 being universally hated for giving all of the power to one summon type which Komoney literally just finished doing.
      I did feel like they would get some advanced mechanic/alt mechanic much like Contact Fusion, OLAS, Rank Up Magic or even just expanding the pool of pendulum cards like have more generic 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 0 scales.
      I too thought they would get something like depending on if they're the left most scale you used that number and the right most scale you use the other number. Or unironically another Pendulum or now (another available S/T zone you can place a pendulum monster) as a way to force the opponent to spend more resources to stop your P Summon. I dunno something like a Delta Pendulum Scale. Example say you have a scale of 1 -9. Say there's an additional space and you place a 4 scale. So now you can do 1-9 OR you can do 2 and 3 OR 5, 6, 7, and 8.

      I kinda wished that they revise the rules for Pendulum Summoning concerning Xyz Pendulum monsters. They should make it so that when you're able to Pendulum Summon, you can have access to both Levels and Ranks within those scales, since Xyz Pendulum monsters are impossible to bring out without needing to Xyz Summon them first, and the "If you can Pendulum Summon Level n, you can Pendulum Summon this face-up card in your Extra Deck." kinda denses up the card text... Xyz Pendulums and other Extra Deck Pendulums already have their card text filled with "If this card in the Monster Zone is destroyed: You can place it in your Pendulum Zone." and even that takes up too much space

    Fun fact you may not know, but cards with Macro Cosmos like effects *do* affect Pendulum Monsters and will be banished instead of going to the Extra Deck face up
    Found this out the other day by playing Dark Law against a pend deck only to see all the monster used for a link summon be banished instead of going to the extra deck

    I wish there was a Continuous Spell that lifted the Master Rule 4 restriction on Pendulum Summoning from the Extra Deck. I think it’s a fair trade, you only get 2 free S/T Zones, but you increase your Pendulum Summoning capabilities.

    Pendulum monsters(PM) have their own mechanics, in TCG following master rule these are: 1) can't go FROM FIELD to GY, instead they're placed face-up in the extra deck, 2) can be used as spell cards (they aren't treated as any spell card type) by placing them in an specific zone (just like fields spells) to the most left or right spell/trap zones, that zone becomes a pendulum zone when occupied by a PM used as a spell, also they can't be set as spell cards, 3) can used exactly as monster of it's CARD TYPE would. 4) PM are cards used to perform a special summon mecanic (like polymerization, or ritual spell cards, etc) that summon is called PENDULUM SUMMON (this summon can be performed once per turn), in order to do it, you must control 2 PMs used as spells in your pendulum zones, 5) PS allow you to special summon monsters(that can be special summoned) from your hand or PMs face-up in your extra deck(they can only be summoned to a monster zone that is treated as an extra monster zone that you are allowed to use) as you want, whose levels are an integer number between the SCALE NUMBERS(see number "7)") of the PMs used to perform the PS. 6) PMs have 2 text boxes, the first one is applied when they are treated as spells, the second is their monster effect or flavor text and it is applied whenever they are used as monsters, 7) they have a number next to diamond shape, that is called a scale number. BETWEEN means whichever the margins or borders are, they're excluded from the available options. These sums all, for eveything else use logic and/or apply the appropiate rules.

  • @VestedUTuber
    @VestedUTuber 3 роки тому +2

    Update regarding pendulum monsters in the extra deck and extra monster zones: as of Master Rule 5, this no longer applies. You can summon Fusion, Synchro, Xyz and Pendulum monsters from your extra deck to any monster zone again, PLUS the extra monster zones. The restriction only applies to link monsters now, and the extra monster zones only now exist to facilitate link monsters. Do note that if you summon anything to an extra monster zone, you cannot summon to the other extra monster zone unless you have a chain of link monsters that point to that zone.
    Honestly, I kinda wish that they kept that restriction _specifically_ for pendulum monsters. The thing with pendulum monsters is that they can basically just come back every turn as long as the pendulum scale is intact. Forcing them to rely on links heavily restricts the amount of monsters that can be brought back each turn.

  • @ZZI44418
    @ZZI44418 2 роки тому +1

    Note: if a card such as Dimensional Fissure or Macro Cosmos is in effect, they overwrite the built in pendulum monster effect of being sent to the extra deck. This makes them especially vulnerable to graveyard hate. Dimensional Shifter, Kyubi Shenshen, and Masked HERO Dark Law are all capable of doing the same. Pendulum Monsters are sent to the GY as monsters, hence why Dimensional Fissure still works, even when the card was sent to the GY from the pendulum zone.

    3:15~3:27 & 9:13~9:18 I commented on this before, but no, scales do *not* apply to Ranks. The reason you can Pendulum Summon Xyz Monsters is because of their Pendulum Summoning conditions. Xyz Monsters can theoretically have a Pendulum Summoning condition for a completely different Level than its Rank, and an Xyz Monster without a Pendulum Summoning condition cannot be Pendulum Summoned at all, hence why they have said conditions in the first place. Additionally, if, theoretically, Konami decided to create Link Pendulum Monsters, those would also have Pendulum Summoning conditions because they wouldn't be able to use their Link Rankings for Pendulum Summoning.
