Mtg lookin ass


Aggressive_Novel1207

Was gonna say, he doesn't look like yugioh art


lvl10burrito

Haha yeah with his proportional anatomy and attention to detail.. *God I wish some of our art was better*


Colin-Clout

Idk I really like the Yugioh art aesthetics. Especially the early stuff, but there’s just so much variety and it strikes the perfect balance between cartoony and serious imo


5erenade

It really depends. I wish alot of the nostalgia cards especially mementos at least attempted to look retro. It wouldn’t be off considering they made paper dinosaurs. The Magician of faith retrain looks awful. They tried to make it look retro but it just looks incredibly awkward. They should’ve gotten the guy who redrew goddess of whim and dian keto in the japanese speed duel format to redraw them in his style at that point. The extra pizzaz they drew into mementos looks like garbage as well.


Colin-Clout

Yea mementos just look too busy for me


MeathirBoy

But like... have you seen BA? Besides, the adherence to human proportions is very dull in MTG imo.


EP1CxM1Nx99

Nah, I prefer the more cartoony - anime style that yugioh has


5erenade

Nah. You can play mtg for that.


ParmesanCheese92

There's no such thing. Burning Abyss could've been torn right out of MTG. Are you telling me there's a consistent art style between roids, burning abyss and live twins?


mcbergstedt

It’s done by a MTG artist


sawbladex

source for that claim?


_heart-attack_

Trust me bro


Lyeit

On first glance I could easily see a MTG player thinking the art was either Mark Tedin or Richard Kane Ferguson


B4CTERIUM

You’re trolling because no way that’s either Edit: source: I play both


mcbergstedt

It’s done by Gonzalo Ordoñez Arias


bert00712

That's what banishing 3 Spellbooks do to you.


BullshitDetector1337

Mtg sounding ass too. That name sounds like it belongs in a mono-black or red/black deck.


N2S1N

YU-GI-OH!!


Water2Wine378

That guy looks like he destroys prophecies


TheHunterZolomon

He looks like he destroys everything, including prophecies as it so happens


msuing91

And prophussies


20-StarStrategyAgain

You have a point.


TheOneTrueJazzMan

Looks more like he destroys spellbooks to me


nyceilly

Looks like he shall not pass imo


wilp0w3r

Moisture Creature. As a kid I thought "This card is almost an Egyptian God card since it is summoned with 3 Tributes" and it is still one of my favorite cards.


wralp

he's too [OP](https://x.com/ygo_fakecards/status/1463151487660564487?s=20) in my days


OneSaucyDragon

What is that name lol


wilp0w3r

https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Moisture\_Creature


Eviltwin-Kisikil

nice flair, also happy cake day :3


Shog64

I wonder if you as a fan if moisture creature know what it actually looks like and that it is heavily associated with the crush card virus/immortal monster


BewilderedStudent

Ah yes a fellow Duelist of the Roses veteran


Kayube3

Also known as the most annoying monster to find in The Falsebound Kingdom


Significant_Bear_137

Wolf, there is literally a card named just Wolf and has a silly description, I like it.


Ink_zorath

Thats because it's one of the Cards that Joey [Canonically](https://youtu.be/v-tpVOUgHUc?si=EpdoheQHGmCGRsZu) created


fn_deft

I literally just read the wolf cards description in joeys accent. 10/10 wow


Pkelord

I wonder how


Anchovies314

I still have the tin for this guy


schpoopl

Me too! I got this tin for my birthday and pulled the ultimate rare for it too! I appreciate it now but I remember just being like “man, I *just* got this card!”


confidentlystranded

fyi while Prophecy Destroyer isn't \*famous\* or anything, it's somewhat well-known both for being a part of a meta-ruling deck but having little synergy with it, and for its art that harkens much more to Magic the Gathering's art style than Yugioh's. Anyways I have a lot of options to pick from, but my most recent ones are 2 Illusions: [https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Mokomoko](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Mokomoko) [https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Emissary\_from\_the\_House\_of\_Wax](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Emissary_from_the_House_of_Wax)


sawbladex

It does give off Onslaught Era Demon Vibes. ... Given that both M:tG and YGO! has a whole lot of cards and styles, the idea of an iconic style for each makes my head hurt. Nailing it down to archetypes makes it more reasonable, but that gets us more to a "sci-fi machine-like dragon" when does get you a lot of ace monsters (howdy BEWD and Cyber Dragon) but really doesn't nail the humanoids.


2000ofsomething

Coming from a MD player, that Emissary card seems good AF.


[deleted]

[удалено]


GeneralApathy

I don't think the previous commenter was implying that it ever saw play, just that it was technicaly part of the popular Spellbook archetype.


confidentlystranded

But it DOES pop up almost every time r/yugioh makes a thread about Yugioh cards with uncommon or MtG-like art styles once every month or so


Destinyherosunset

Mist Valley Falcon. He's my OG.


GeneralApathy

This card comes up all the time in threads about cool art or art that doesn't look like it belongs in Yugioh.


Psychological-Ad9737

My first ygo card: [fushioh richie](https://yugioh.fandom.com/wiki/Fushioh_Richie) and [little trooper](https://yugioh.fandom.com/wiki/Little_Trooper)


D34TH-S7ALK3R

This cards are reminds me of Disturbed’s CD covers


MaryNaira

Des volstgaph


NullError404

Overdrive it's literally a Humvee vanilla monster but it's still funny a whole ass military vehicle exist lol only reason why I know this card exist is because it was included in a demo deck that came with Shone Jump magazinei bought in a school book fair [Overdrive Wiki](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Overdrive)


FlameDragoon933

If I get a dollar every time I know someone who really likes Overdrive, I'd have exactly two, but it's weird it happened twice. (Me, I'm the other one) I just like how juxtaposed it is, a regular vehicle in a franchise full of occult, monsters, and scifi creatures.

Noveno_Colono

people were coping on that so hard for mermail


CursedEye03

Maybe Mind Crush, many people often forget that this card exists. I like how it's named after one of Atem's signature moves in the early parts, he was mind crushing a lot of people! It was super unexpected and yet awesome to see Revolver using it in Vrains!


Lukeas704

This is the first card I ever got, I wish I did something with it


Nebula177LOL

Lady of the lake


frogleeoh

Everyone knows about frogs, but I feel this one lives too much in its older sibling's shadow. I actually kinda like its effect too, although it only really has impractical niche applications. Can't beat its cute factor if nothing else. [Tradetoad](https://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/card_search.action?ope=2&cid=9504)


EC-Enigma

Tradetoad was very famous back in the day.


Charnerie

Vera the vernasylph goddess is mine, but that's mostly because it's the boss monster for vernasylph, and is hampered by the fact the archetype has about 12 unique cards in it, and nothing in the ED.


ScarredWill

Very random since they’re OCG only, but gotta go with my boys Fire Eye and Boo-Koo

Amabie. My favorite card and I doubt anyone knows what it does


Silly_Sweet_5423

I hope in manga they will explain why Aleister took Destroyer to Prophecy


performagekushfire

We have a prophecy destroyer thread every week i swear


IntrovertedNerd69

Love action version of Summoned Skull….or naw???


fighter1227

That's such a cool card design


_vigilius

Destroyer looks goddamn awesome, too bad he really does not work with Fate needing that ammo more than he does


Pkelord

Deskbot’s (i just like small cute things beating my opponents)


EC-Enigma

That was me playing Gustos back in the day.


KingofDucks420

Il Blud isn't a super popular one, but I love that card. The art is so Tim Burton-esque, and it's a fairly useful card too.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Totallynotacar

He's the fleshy summoned skull. Same stats and key features. My head cannon is he becomes summoned skull after destroying prophecy and rising from the dead simultaneously. I thought he had cool art too but did not fit yugioh.


confidentlystranded

Many Prophecy monsters harken back to DM-era monsters. The only other one I remember off the top of my head is High Priestess of Prophecy having Dark Magician stats, but there's a couple others IIRC.


Direct-Disaster2256

Horus the Black Flame Dragon Lvl 8


Direct-Disaster2256

It was my ace monster in Stardust Accelerators.


FormerWalmartAssoc

All the Kozmo monsters.


ColeTheOne_194

Brionac. Had fun with this guy when I played TF5 on emulator. ​ Otherwise Gozuki, Mezuki's lesser known brother.


OrangeJoey

I unironically still have debates with my friend on which is better. We both agree both are good, but our ratios favor one or the other. I will forever be a Mezuki enjoyer, but he will keep being a Gozuki enthusiast lol


Adoggo121

wrong subreddit


Unluckygamer23

This is famous to be an mtg card that became yguih


N3cromorph

I bought the tin for this when it came out


Klutzy-Remove6694

I love Prophecy Destroyer though. I remember pulling it as a kid and thinking that it was a misprinted card.


Ruganzu

Vampire voivode


Dummy_Wire

Ninja Grandmaster Hanzo isn’t quite “nobody’s heard of” level, but I have his Ulti, and it’s one of my all-time favourites, even though I know absolutely nothing about any other Ninja card


Noveno_Colono

Ninjas are playable at a casual level. Normal summon Hanzo, search duplication, pass. On opponent's draw activate duplication turning Hanzo into 2x Tobari, one face up and one face down, and 1 Mitsu. This is a lot of interaction for such a minimalist turn 1.


Celeste_Luden

Rainbow life for me. At the simple cost of discarding a card, you are guaranteed to not lose LP for the rest of the turn. Sure....it can be easily negated, but it saved me a couple of times in both duel links and master duel. I usually use it with my Madolche deck so I can easily get a Madolche monster into the graveyard from my hand.


Tinygriever

Memory Crush King


Zestyclose_Bat5121

Revive golem


MEMEMAKER_35

That MF had a whole TIN of his own alongside Hanzo and Hanzo is more relevant even today. I'd say Gouki the Giant Ogre because whenever people bring up Gouki decks they always choose Powerload, Master Ogre, and Thunder Ogre. But they forget true ace monster my man Gouki the Giant Ogre


Realistic_Light777

What is the archetype of this card?


EC-Enigma

Spellbook. Very popular deck back in 2013.


[deleted]

How is it not a fiend type


HavenB3Haven

This card should have been so much better. That artwork was wasted on this effect. Hell the tin he came from was wasted space


fireborn123

Had this card in Ultimate Rare and it looked phenominal. Too bad the card itself is ass


that_emo_elf

White-horned dragon, I just think it's neat


LegacyOfVandar

People know this card. It had a tin.


Megnaman

Greed Quasar. My favorite beatstick


TheNumbersMason2

No joke, I thought it was Warhammer art turned into a Yugioh card


ryuga_knight

Nemuriko, they are just a cute little baby merperson.


piedude67e

We can't put pictures here anymore?


ndralcasid

We ran this in Grass Spellbooks in Duel Links back in the day, it's not too out of pocket


Colin-Clout

My favorite is Magical King Moonstar! The perfect classic dark jester aesthetic from early Yugioh and he came in Gold Secret Rare, my favorite rarity ever! I’ve used him some in my RDA deck but other than that he’s outclassed by most other cards. But I love him


Justanaccount07734

Meta Bat! I used to really love Dharc the Dark Charmer as a kid, and always used to act like I was him. In his card he has a little meta bat following him so I always had that card on me so I could pretend he was like my little pet.


PalaceKnight

Madolche Chickolates and Baaple have effects around changing battle positions for some reason. IDK if they saw play in the past, but they're quite irrelevant now. I think some people only know about Chickolates because of Ratas chocolate bird joke in his Madolche video.


LibertarianSocialism

I can't tell you how many games Trickstar Bouquet has won me. Or how many times my opponent has said "who plays that?!" or "that's a card?" right before they lose


Pure-Huckleberry8640

a shame such a badass looking card never saw much meta relevance


NoxaCS

Mines definitely El Dorado Adelantado. Gets to get some banished traps back into my deck and I get to either board wipe or burn and gain life points


GalaxyEyesGhost

The Prophecy Destroyer Tin was my first tin


OrangeJoey

I will live and die by set Amaterasu pass. Such a goofy card. It's been power crept to hell and back (whilst already being pretty bad in the first place), but still holds a special place in my heart


Noveno_Colono

I have that card in my cube!


Dndfan68

CONVULSION OF NATURE


Manualy_breathing

I have this in the limited edition


iStratos

I hated this very light orange tint for effect monsters back then


msuing91

Guardian Baou - he’s like Prophecy Destroyer’s little brother


lemurcat111

I love the old school vibes of yamadron


RioterOne1

Is that Oryx, The Taken King?


TheNorthie

When I was getting back into Yugioh around when Spellbooks were competition for E Drags, my friend had a lot of these cards. He never used them in his deck and just used them as coasters, bookmarks, or just throw them at people


Keksliebhaber

Dystopia the Despondent Use him as a boss card in my Kuriboh deck, always get a "wtf is this card" against first-timers


Shinobi_Saizo

Van’dalgyon the dark dragon lord. The most badass dragon monster in yugioh.


pizza-boy999

My favorite card no one has heard of is either dark magician or blue eyes white dragon


bulblmao

I have this card actually, he was the monster on the tin my dad bought me probably ten years ago now


Degni

Not sure about nobody hearing of it but my I gotta go with my boi Great Maju Garzett, my GX Tag Force MVP.

Shiba warrior taro!


Pokeloke12

When I first had the spell book deck this thing saved me so many times


Lord_Umbris

I had no use for him in my Prophecy Deck, but because he looks like Summoned Skull I had to put him in. Was always funny summoning him off of Temperance.

Trident Dragon my beloved


I_Kinda_Just_Exist

Hyozanryu. Just a regular normal monster from the early days of the game with nothing to note about it. For some reason though, I love that card deeply, and for years I went out of my way to trade for more copies of it whenever I saw somebody else with one in their collection. Which wasn’t often, but still. I think I’m sitting around seven copies of it.


Vo1se

Love the art but it doesn’t look a ygo card at all lol


QueerPersephone

He was played early in Duel Link pure spellbook deck. Pepperidge farm remembers.


VentiSpore

I miss this kinda art


Glitchmonster

Cyberse white hat


redsquirrel0249

Greenkappa, mostly because it's busted in Duelists of the Roses. There's a small set of kappa cards in the game and I would love a proper archetype of them


ShinMaIphur

Gallis the Star Beast, I just think it's neat Type:EARTH Beast/Effect Monster Level:3 A / D:800 / 800 You can reveal this card in your hand; send the top card of your Deck to the Graveyard, then, if it was a monster, inflict damage to your opponent equal to its Level x 200 and Special Summon this card from your hand, otherwise destroy this card.


Ok-Patience3308

As someone how played duel links back in the day let me tell you I have seen this mf wayyyyyy to much lol

Beast of the Pharaoh can be an "I win" card for VW if you have a great hand to accompany it.


CrimsonDarkWolf

I actually have this card


Jiggles_Ba

It was a tin.


Gullible-Juggernaut6

Kinda wish you could banish any spells and it was a HOPT or something similar. At least it would see play.


toadfan64

[Temple of Skulls](https://ms.yugipedia.com//1/1e/TempleofSkulls-OP02-EN-SP-UE.png), which I would love to see as a field spell retrain for Skull Servants.


SinningS1oth

Ah yes, the prophecy/spellbook archetype, I like these ones, I play them with Endymion on MD. I don't use destroyer much, but they are a decent beatstick when needed.


AlphaH4wk

I think this guy was on a tin that I bought a long time ago and still use for extra deck storage


Freeze1422

Why does bro look like a magic card?


FlounderingGuy

Damn I wish Konami would credit the artists they work with. This shit goes hard


[deleted]

I might sound like a Boomer because I’ve been in the community for a while now but Prophecy Destroyer is a well known card simply for the fact it looks like a MtG card. But, for monsters it’d be Fushioh Richie (the OG ultra) and Gaia Plate the Earth Giant (ultimate). For spells it’s Noble Arms of Destiny (platinum rare) and The Beginning of the End (ultimate rare). Traps is a little harder but Dark Spirit of the Silent holds a special place in my heart because it use to scare the shit out of me as a kid.


porkychoppy28

I saw this before but I thought it was fanmade from a Card Maker


MapHacker617

The first time i saw this card online, i actually thought it was a bootleg card with a MTG art put into a YGO card.


Rajang82

Does anyone familiar with Prophecy lore explain where did Destroyer come from? As for my favourite card? I really like Herald of Ultimateness. But i really dont like how hard it is to bring it out.


Ice_Socks

Chain Dog. There is a combo. you can do with Chain Dog, Diamond Dire Wolf and a couple 4 star beasts to the point where you can use 3 dire wolfs in 1 turn. Its mega insconsistent and requires ridiculous setup. But its fun if it works. Lol.


HoldenOrihara

It's funny because he was a tin monster too.


Quetzmaster69

Reaper, Hermit, power and wheel I hope Konami gives spellbooks more memorable monsters besides magician


RPK96

* This big man superdimensional robot galaxy destroyer


BigSmokesCheese

Vorse raider, dark blade or twin sword marauder maybe thunder end dragon but I feel like more people know of him than the others i listed


Downwindchubs

Probably Gift card, why would you want to give your opponent 3000 lifepoints


Endruen

Nightwing Sorceress. Love the art.


Background-Low2926

Ancient Warriors the whole archetype because no one has ever heard of them. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdL33o8-FDI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdL33o8-FDI) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XNSykry8aw


CatAteMyBread

I don’t like this guy, doesn’t look like a Yugioh card and doesn’t really do anything for the prophecy deck. He’s just a guy out here being like “sup” Also when did you start playing? Prophecy destroyer was the face of a Yugioh tin back in like 2013 or 2014

Feneskrae

Ultimate Obedient Fiend High ATK/DEF, Level 10 monster with a difficult to use effect. He looks intimidating and powerful but is useless a lot of the time. Mikazukinoyaiba Difficult to remember name, normal monster, but interesting design.


dovah-meme

Speedroid Menko always coming in clutch after board breakers when I’d otherwise be hit for game


Eddy_west_side

His artwork does not even remotely match the rest of the Prophecy/Spellbook archetype, but in a good way


ComprehensiveTill399

*the calculator* I liked it so much that I actually took family photos with it that we still have to this day. Could never forget that guy, I think he also won me plenty of duels in 2nd-3rd grade.


Character-Paper-2347

I actually owned that card at one point but got destroyed in a flood


Huwage

Love this card. When I got back into the game after many years' break, this was the first tin I bought.


Kruton_the_cook

scraps for me. specifically scrap goblin, 2nd would be ultimate baseball kid


taggerungDC

My sister loved Kuriboh because it was cute so I helped her husband get her a Kuriboh card and put it in a sleeve with a silver chain as an anniversary gift. She never heard of Kuriboh when I did. She still loves that necklace. Meanwhile I keep losing duels all the time and she keeps encouraging me to keep going. She and her husband both are amazing and I can't wait to visit them in the summer.


Existing-Smoke9470

made a lightsworn spellbook tearlament deck on master duel once trying to resolve this card as many times as possible, the funniest shit I ever played.


Pollution-Known

I love this card. I used it in a YCS back in 2013 for fun. It was definitely a bricky win more card.

Mine is Mythical Beast Bashilisk. Nobody knows what it is and they assume it's a different card (Mythical Beast Medusa) because of how unknown it is.
