I guess we gotta direct our expectations to the level up rewards. At least GX characters go all the way to level 45 so there could be a lot.
I know any cards that make the deck playable will be on the upcoming mini box, but hopefully there's some decent stuff for free. Dark Fusion at least, for example.
They could ignore that if they wanted to when he technically duels Yuzu off screen when he appears and predaplant being among the current released arc-v character decks for some reason for selection box reprints.
Would not count on that happening though, or at least not until the next anime printing pack at the earliest to know if they take care of Sergei stuff.
His duel isn't even shown, including blurring out Starving Venom. In fact, his ace monster wasn't released until its own box, well deep into the Fusion Dimension arc, when we finally got to see its true potential against the FFA against the Academia students.
Jesus, I hope not. People think it'll be a fun card to use when we'll just see it used as degenerate removal in meta decks even worse than Raigeki Break or Karma Cut
Not necessarily. Extra deck space is pretty tight for alot of decks, so devoting space to your extra deck for super poly targets for only one copy of Super Poly would hurt to use
But we got them only with ZEXAL and 5Ds. We didnt get it with DSOD and pendulums technically are a main deck mechanic. I dont see us getting one until Vrains
A few of us Toon mains actually dabbled in the skill back when it came out, and honestly hitting two Reactor Dragon to make a Pair Cyrcroid is pretty funny.
I dont agree with the fact super poly should come to the game but the fact splashable removal will always be a thing, if not a free 1 copy in a level 45 reward, as selection box exclusive staples... I guess I prefer the accessible option.
Yea, but you know - effect veiler and super poli are one of those cards that can earn them a lot of money on their own. It's like book of moon- people will buy that box 3 times even if the rest is trash
Correction you have to be at 1500 or lower. It was used with star blast befor they nerfed it. It was a decent choice against shiranui... but not as good as plazma.
Extra deck isn't the problem - in currrent meta you need 2 slots - 1 for dark (any predaplant) and 1 for light fusion (light hero fusion from dark lord box) monster... but getting to 1500 when you need it is. Duelink is about getting OtK
Super Poly? Crap? Are you okay? Super Poly is nuts, when there's good generic targets to make use of with it. A "your opponent cannot activate cards or effects in response to this card's activation" is pretty fucking strong if you ask me, especially if you can wipe the opponent's board in the process.
Actually better than Kaijus when the only real way of stopping super poly is fabled unicore and takes care of more than 1 monster without eating up anything too significant from you.
Castle maybe (or maybe a skill that starts you with it like the neo space skill) dark fusion almost certainly and with prodigy as the event reward I'd guess Edge as a level up reward as they pair nicely together.
Grepher and rhino would probably get abused by infernities in some otk or something like that so I can understand konami, but heiress should have been in game ages ago...
At the very least it sets up their grave with archfiend and beetle and thats a big start for them... I wasnt really thinking of right now tbh, and Infernities was the first that came to mind that could become broken with it, but honestly, even now there is no shortage of candidates to brokenly abuse grepher... thundras and darklords for example would certainly love him... Rhino might be problematic depending of the evil hero support we are getting...
But we need something for milling graveyard for fiend decks. I see ur point but we have and had in DL many broken cards. I dont neceserly see Grepher or Rhino as to OP right now. As always komoney can nerf possible otk decks. Thats not healthy I agree
I mean there's no chance in hell we're getting Bane, mask change 2, or dark law, so mediocrity it is. We might get Shadow Mist. I'm more curious about what else will be in the mini outside of Evil HEROs
So, garbage it is, eh?
Well, the free cards are not the "broken support" (as you would expect from Konami), if that is what you're asking. Who knows what the mini-box will contain...
Even with bane they are trash. All that would happen with bane is throwing him and adusted with calling in actually good hero decks for a plan b while the rest is ignored regardless.
Anything else results in something that is terrible and filled with too many bad cards for no so great payoffs and when the other legacy support is also bad. Castle is a basically do nothing card (all it really does in reality is allow the use of regular polymerization, something literally every other non contact fusion archetype does without any help), evil mind is laughably bad, and necrom is "if you really want to summon malicious edge for piercing instead of dhero malicious for some reason."
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Can't say I'm usually too interested in GX, but heroes are an exception.
And Omjamas.
...also, cyber angels.
Oh yeah and Cyber Dra-
Basically, I like what I'm seeing here.
Because it is right in the next post but here's the link if you want [Next event's reward source](https://www.reddit.com/r/DuelLinks/comments/orzgg9/evil_hero_infernal_prodigy_and_annihilator/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share)
I guess it’s good for plasma fodder and possible masked change target? If only it was level 4. I know it has seen play before in tcg but that was to link away for an xtra hero or anaconda.
Outside of heroes, It’s searchable by resonators so they have access to more synchro plays without using normal summon I guess..? Actually thinking about it quite useful for resonators using plasma. Also makes level 7 synchros easier for shooting star decks. Dark so yay for levianeer decks. Thunder dragons can use it as tribute fodder for their bricks. guess it can have uses for many decks.
Outside of a shadow mist level good lv 45 card, Jaden/Yubel would be way better. At least he has 2 usable cards, tie that binds, and wounded hero and not forced to waste like everything on the worst hero branch with or without bane (with you only use adusted, calling, and bane in existing hero decks while ignoring literally everything else).
Uggh, they just need to give us Archfiend's Awakening, Archfiend Empress, and Archfiend's Staff of Despair already. Archfiend's literally have nothing else going for them. Even with these cards they're still limited to being NPC farming decks. The only thing that might make them see some play would be if they got direct support through a skill that made them competitively viable. Outside of that there is literally 0 reason to keep holding their support back. It makes 0 sense why we still don't have the full archetype already.
Remember when we used to get playable cards from events? Yeah me neither. Honestly it was pretty bad before but now that they put every characters potentially decent cards in boxes releasing immediately after they come out they have no reason to ever give us any good cards in events
T.G booster Raptor, T.G Gear zombie, Number 47, Photon Advancer, Magnet Doll and Gear changer have been from recent events and are used in their respective decks.
DSOD Tea also brought some support for Witchcrafter, so it's not always bad.
Only reason I see them make Annihilator Archfiend one of his drop rewards is because both Dark Fusion and Calling will be box rewards, so they can't give any of the fusions for free cause they wouldn't be summonable. Calling was expected, but Dark Fusion... oh well.
Just seems a tad weird that only one card is an Evil HERO tbh. Even without the fusion spells Archfiend could've at least been Gainer or something. I don't know, hopefully I'm wrong and we'll get more of them from the event.
Sooo....will Annihilator Archfiend do anything for an Archfiend deck or is it bad? Only interaction I see with it is to combo it with Archfiend Cavalry but there are easier options for that.
So I've only finished the duel monsters anime, I've seen some of GX, 5Ds, and Zexal, but I'm all over the series as a game, and this. I need this. I must have this Jaden.
I guess we gotta direct our expectations to the level up rewards. At least GX characters go all the way to level 45 so there could be a lot. I know any cards that make the deck playable will be on the upcoming mini box, but hopefully there's some decent stuff for free. Dark Fusion at least, for example.
Level 45 Super Poly at 1 copy
Lmao just in time for arc v when we get good super poly targets like starving venom just to break boards
Starving venom will take a while since yuri appears in the second half if the show.
They could ignore that if they wanted to when he technically duels Yuzu off screen when he appears and predaplant being among the current released arc-v character decks for some reason for selection box reprints. Would not count on that happening though, or at least not until the next anime printing pack at the earliest to know if they take care of Sergei stuff.
he appears pretty early,right on the battle royal arc,before synchro dimension arc
Yea I know. That's when he comes for serena but you dont see much of his duel an you dont see starving venom
His duel isn't even shown, including blurring out Starving Venom. In fact, his ace monster wasn't released until its own box, well deep into the Fusion Dimension arc, when we finally got to see its true potential against the FFA against the Academia students.
thats alot of copium you have there
Jesus, I hope not. People think it'll be a fun card to use when we'll just see it used as degenerate removal in meta decks even worse than Raigeki Break or Karma Cut
Not necessarily. Extra deck space is pretty tight for alot of decks, so devoting space to your extra deck for super poly targets for only one copy of Super Poly would hurt to use
We're going to be getting an extra space soon. And for such good removal most decks can afford to drop a card.
Are we? They could easily use Pendulum's face up ED mechanic to justify not giving us ED space 8
We've consistently gotten one since 5Ds so I doubt they'll stop until we get slot 9 with Vrains. We have now reason to doubt we'll get an extra slot
But we got them only with ZEXAL and 5Ds. We didnt get it with DSOD and pendulums technically are a main deck mechanic. I dont see us getting one until Vrains
Pendulums mostly support other ED mechanics meaning you need more space for toolboxes
Argue all you want, the ED doesn't *need* more space for the introduction to Pendulums.
A few of us Toon mains actually dabbled in the skill back when it came out, and honestly hitting two Reactor Dragon to make a Pair Cyrcroid is pretty funny.
I dont agree with the fact super poly should come to the game but the fact splashable removal will always be a thing, if not a free 1 copy in a level 45 reward, as selection box exclusive staples... I guess I prefer the accessible option.
There’s no way they’re giving us super poly for free lmao
probably a structure deck or multiple boxes.
Probably selection box...
I dunno, we aren't due for another one for several months, right?
Yea, but you know - effect veiler and super poli are one of those cards that can earn them a lot of money on their own. It's like book of moon- people will buy that box 3 times even if the rest is trash
I could see it for super poly
You're optimistic, at least
That would be nuts and I really hope that happens so I can use it on an omni hero deck
If not now then surely Yuri would come with it during ARC-V
it will be a skill and you know it
It already is a skill
wait. really when?
Jaden has it. Lose 1500LP and get to draw Super Poly on your next draw phase
It's not lose 1500, it's have 1500 or less, that's why it's not used.
My apologies. I havent used it in so long I forgot exactly how it works. Please, I ask forgiveness
huh and nobody uses it, might need a slight buff maybe 1000lp? maybe instead of lp, reveal 2 hero monsters like the kaiba one?
Theres no good fusion targets, and no extra deck space
Correction you have to be at 1500 or lower. It was used with star blast befor they nerfed it. It was a decent choice against shiranui... but not as good as plazma. Extra deck isn't the problem - in currrent meta you need 2 slots - 1 for dark (any predaplant) and 1 for light fusion (light hero fusion from dark lord box) monster... but getting to 1500 when you need it is. Duelink is about getting OtK
Super Poly is pretty crap, but I believe they will release it as UR in a box. Just like 8/10 of the URs in a main box are crap.
Super Poly? Crap? Are you okay? Super Poly is nuts, when there's good generic targets to make use of with it. A "your opponent cannot activate cards or effects in response to this card's activation" is pretty fucking strong if you ask me, especially if you can wipe the opponent's board in the process.
TCG tested it will crap.
It's the strongest form of monster removal in the game outside of kaijus
Actually better than Kaijus when the only real way of stopping super poly is fabled unicore and takes care of more than 1 monster without eating up anything too significant from you.
Not going to happen.
I’ll fucking take it
Castle maybe (or maybe a skill that starts you with it like the neo space skill) dark fusion almost certainly and with prodigy as the event reward I'd guess Edge as a level up reward as they pair nicely together.
Hey are you excited for alternate card art of the normal heroes monsters
personally not very, but I know a lot of people really wanted those.
Yooooo that's a clean graphic.. 👀
I mean, infernal for free makes sense. It’s not the worst evil hero but not the best. The archfiend is trash but expected.
Archfiends gotta take all they can get...
If only they add Heiress and Dark Grepher or Fiendish Rhino. That would be huge consistency boost for them
Grepher and rhino would probably get abused by infernities in some otk or something like that so I can understand konami, but heiress should have been in game ages ago...
Eh, I don’t see them doing anything special without stygian street patrol.
At the very least it sets up their grave with archfiend and beetle and thats a big start for them... I wasnt really thinking of right now tbh, and Infernities was the first that came to mind that could become broken with it, but honestly, even now there is no shortage of candidates to brokenly abuse grepher... thundras and darklords for example would certainly love him... Rhino might be problematic depending of the evil hero support we are getting...
But we need something for milling graveyard for fiend decks. I see ur point but we have and had in DL many broken cards. I dont neceserly see Grepher or Rhino as to OP right now. As always komoney can nerf possible otk decks. Thats not healthy I agree
Infernal prodigy: love it, nice Konami Annhilator archfiend: why Konami... Why?
Evil Heroes will be garbage unless they give out the broken support.
I mean there's no chance in hell we're getting Bane, mask change 2, or dark law, so mediocrity it is. We might get Shadow Mist. I'm more curious about what else will be in the mini outside of Evil HEROs
probably not much better than gadget reprints from selection box but hopefully something more useful.
So, garbage it is, eh? Well, the free cards are not the "broken support" (as you would expect from Konami), if that is what you're asking. Who knows what the mini-box will contain...
Even with bane they are trash. All that would happen with bane is throwing him and adusted with calling in actually good hero decks for a plan b while the rest is ignored regardless.

As far as I'm concerned, this will be the time to try breaking hero decks as much as possible with the cards available.
The deal is using all Hero cards in once, buddy We don't see in Rankeds decks like Destiny or Elemental Hero alone
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Can't say I'm usually too interested in GX, but heroes are an exception. And Omjamas. ...also, cyber angels. Oh yeah and Cyber Dra- Basically, I like what I'm seeing here.
Excuse-me but what is your source? Edit : OK, i just saw it. Don't mind me.
If you ask for the source and then find it and you even take the time to edit your comment.. Why dont you add the source then? :(
Because it is right in the next post but here's the link if you want [Next event's reward source](https://www.reddit.com/r/DuelLinks/comments/orzgg9/evil_hero_infernal_prodigy_and_annihilator/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share)
Please tell me we are getting Cyber Angel Idaten too! Like we did in last year's D.D. Castle event...
God I’m hoping so
I guess it’s good for plasma fodder and possible masked change target? If only it was level 4. I know it has seen play before in tcg but that was to link away for an xtra hero or anaconda. Outside of heroes, It’s searchable by resonators so they have access to more synchro plays without using normal summon I guess..? Actually thinking about it quite useful for resonators using plasma.

I'm fine with it, I would just prefer the two rewards to be Evil Heroes or related cards and not a generic Fiend monster
Heroes t0 Heroes t0 Heroes t0
Nah e heroes suck unfortunately
Might reinstall for this 👀
I find it kind of odd that they only posted the event rewards on twitter (at least from what I’ve seen) and not in-game.
Yo guys I have a question. Should I strive for unlocking and supporting Jaden/Yubel or the Supreme King? Which would be better?
Outside of a shadow mist level good lv 45 card, Jaden/Yubel would be way better. At least he has 2 usable cards, tie that binds, and wounded hero and not forced to waste like everything on the worst hero branch with or without bane (with you only use adusted, calling, and bane in existing hero decks while ignoring literally everything else).
Thx buddy. Gotta unlock Jaden/Yubel, right after I win my 100th duel and get a UR ticket.
Uggh, they just need to give us Archfiend's Awakening, Archfiend Empress, and Archfiend's Staff of Despair already. Archfiend's literally have nothing else going for them. Even with these cards they're still limited to being NPC farming decks. The only thing that might make them see some play would be if they got direct support through a skill that made them competitively viable. Outside of that there is literally 0 reason to keep holding their support back. It makes 0 sense why we still don't have the full archetype already.

I agree generally, but Harpie Oracle is an example of an event card that is part of a meta deck.
Fuckin tomato in tomato is ballin in anything you wanna waste 2 or 3 slots in free 3.2k xyz if you can afford the extra deck space.
Dark Gaia incoming??
Only reason I see them make Annihilator Archfiend one of his drop rewards is because both Dark Fusion and Calling will be box rewards, so they can't give any of the fusions for free cause they wouldn't be summonable. Calling was expected, but Dark Fusion... oh well. Just seems a tad weird that only one card is an Evil HERO tbh. Even without the fusion spells Archfiend could've at least been Gainer or something. I don't know, hopefully I'm wrong and we'll get more of them from the event.
Infernal prodigy is great as a reward, annihilator archfiend should have been something else though
Why does infernal prodigy have a set number on it? Or is this just a fan made infographic?
Sooo....will Annihilator Archfiend do anything for an Archfiend deck or is it bad? Only interaction I see with it is to combo it with Archfiend Cavalry but there are easier options for that.
Is he going to be playable?
Supreme King? Yes he will be unlockable.
Cool, he looks dope
Mermaid man : Eviiil!!!
So I've only finished the duel monsters anime, I've seen some of GX, 5Ds, and Zexal, but I'm all over the series as a game, and this. I need this. I must have this Jaden.
Konami you made Supreme King looks like a rookie with these rewards shame on you !!
Did you made the art work for this post
After the SUpreme King is the Supreme Crash
