So recently Konami released Legendary Duelists: Rage of Ra providing us some support for the most powerful of the three egyptian god cards, The Winged Dragon of Ra.
Well it looks as though We will be recieving support for Slifer and Obelisk as well as Relinquished/”Eyes Restrict” monsters in a forthcomming release with these tasty morsels released in Japan:
Translations for these cards are as follows:
1. PGB1-JP001 Chou Dendouha Thunderforce (Super-Conducting Wave Thunderforce) / Thunderforce Attack
Quick-Play Spell
You can only activate 1 card with this card’s name per turn.
This card’s activation and effect cannot be negated.
(1) If you control a monster whose original name is “Slifer the Sky Dragon”: Destroy as many face-up monsters your opponent currently controls as possible, then, if this card was activated during your Main Phase, you can draw cards equal to the number of monsters destroyed and sent to your opponent’s GY by this effect, but you can attack with only 1 monster this turn.
2. PGB1-JP002 God Hand Crusher / Fist of Fate
Quick-Play Spell
You can only activate 1 card with this card’s name per turn.
This card’s activation and effect cannot be negated.
(1) If you control a monster whose original name is “Obelisk the Tormentor”: Negate the effects of 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls, and if you do, destroy it, and if you do that, for the rest of this turn, its effects are negated, as well as the activated effects and effects on the field of monsters with the same original name. Then, if this card was activated during your Main Phase, you can destroy all Spells and Traps your opponent controls.
3. PGB1-JP003 Kousa-suru Tamashii (Crossing Souls) / Exchanging Souls
Quick-Play Spell
You can only activate 1 card with this card’s name per turn.
(1) During the Main Phase: Immediately after this effect resolves, Tribute Summon 1 Divine-Beast monster. When you do, you can also Tribute monsters your opponent controls, as if you controlled them, but you can only activate 1 card or effect other than Divine-Beast monsters’ effects per turn until the end of the next turn.
4. PGB1-JP005 Ougon no Jakyoushin / Golden Idol
DARK Spellcaster / Effect LV1 0/0
You can only use this card name’s (2) effect once per turn.
(1) Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can look at your opponent’s hand, also this card’s name becomes “Thousand-Eyes Idol” until the End Phase.
(2) If this card is banished, or sent to the GY by a card effect: You can target 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls; equip it to 1 of your “Relinquished” monsters or “Eyes Restrict” monsters that cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. While that monster is equipped by this effect, the monster it is equipped to gains ATK equal to the equipped monster’s.
It is AMAZING to see these cards recieving support to make them playable once again. I am looking forward to trying my hand at an Egyptian God deck soon once all of the support has been released.
Stay Safe. Keep brewing and theorycrafting.
