Starlight Road Versus Royal Oppression

Official OCG rulings state that Royal Oppression can negate the special summoning effect of Starlight Road which in turn negates the entirety of the card. That means no negation and no Stardust for you Rainbow Road.

Looks like Blackwings get an out to Starlight Road. Royal Oppression has the ability to negate anything that has the potential to special summon outside of the damage step.

Here's some rough translations
Q: Did you chain this card to the imposition of "suppression of the royal palace," Can I invoke?
A: Yes, you can invoke. At that time, "Star light load" is disabled and the effects of corruption.

Also you can activate Starlight Road even if you don't have a Stardust in your Extra deck.

These are official OCG rulings and I'd be very surprised if this turns out to be one of the few cases where we'll get different rulings for a card. I'm looking at you Prisma.



In my opinion Starlight Road won't be making a big impact on the TCG meta. Even with the rampant destruction; it's still far too situational. It's quite an amazing card but to say it's meta changing is taking it too far.

Well actually I'm going to proxy it a bit against my blackwing deck to see how often it'll come up against the big 3 + Icarus. Guaranteed though that it'll have little to no effect on Lightsworns.

Yugioh Virtual Dueling and Blade & Soul

So I got YVD up and running and I think we should really start using this to sort of play test with new decks. I'm still not used to the system and it seems pretty clunky (How the hell do I use whirlwind?). It's still better than nothing though.

So Jimmy or Victor, just send me a message on msn if you feel like helping me out with this business.


Also on an unrelated note, a new (a couple weeks old) Blade and Soul trailer is out. Looks amazing and hopefully isn't a complete failure like most of NCSoft's MMOs.

Force Master here I come.

Here's the new trailer.
