The rules are identical to a regular duel except: - High Level Monster are Summoned Without Tributes.

It’s worth pointing out that in Duel Links, during Aigami’s unlock event, if you challenge him with Kaiba, Aigami says the surprise Obelisk summon can’t happen a second time as they’re no longer duelling in the Temple of the Kings. Duel Links obviously isn’t canon, but it’s an interesting detail the game thought it was worth bringing up. 🤔
Something kind of cool about DSoD is that all of the non-Dimension duels are basically by the book. Aside from face-up Defense position and drawing on the first turn (which isn't done anymore), they never really screw the rules.
Didn't yugi SET marshmaccaron, but still told kaiba what it was? Sentry soldier was summoned in defense, due to dimension summon, but I don't recall any non dimension Def summons.
@@proclarushtaonasat the card appears on the field face down, but Yugi clearly says he summons it in defense position, and there's a pop-up for its attack and defense, and the monster visually appears when the card is placed down, so... I'd say it was a defense summon, but there's room to argue.
Guys remember that the movie takes place in the PAST meaning BEFORE MR3 they are using the rules from their show, including the first turn draw rule, but with updated cards...
I think you missed a detail for rule 7, when a dimension summoned monster is destroy (either by battle or card effect) you take damage equal to that monster's ATK/DEF. You still take damage if the dimension summoned monster is destroyed by a card effect. An example of this is when Kaiba uses Obelisk effect to deal 4000 damage to Aigami as well as destroy all of his monsters (which in this case is a 3000 buster gundil), and Aigami took 7000 damage in total. Imagine how OP Mirror Force would be if Yugi uses it in this movie
Holy crap finally found the answer to why he took 7k damage. I knew obelisk did 4k direct damage when his effect was used, but I never knew why he took the extra 3k. I just thought it was only if the monster was destroyed through battle. Thank you
It's like the Ba and Ka from the final arc of the final arc. When the monster (Ka) is summoned, it's summoned using spirit energy (Ba). But if it's defeated, then that spirit energy isn't there anymore, so the user takes that as damage. That's an interesting way to bring that idea back for this style of dueling.
Yo, you right! We got the Ka-style back via Dimension Dueling... yet it feels rather off that they started the story plot via the '8th' Millenium Item... which just feels cheap.
One pretty cool detail about Dimension Duels in DSOD is that they more or less serve as a throw-back to the original Shadow Games we see in the final Millennium World arc. Dimension Summoning actually works quite a bit like the summoning of Monster Spirits, with the summoner using their 'spirit' to call and empower their servant monster, and then suffer injury/damage if that monster is destroyed.
I just rewatched this movie, so this was a fun watch. Also, according to kaiba, his new bleeding edge, state of the art, high tech system allows him to access every card he has ever own, which would include obelisk. My guess was that because Obelisk wasn't being imitated by physical means and just digitalized (Cause otherwise him pulling obelisk is straight up cheating) means that Obelisk perhaps couldn't recognize that its likeness was being replicated. It could also be that since the Egyptian God cards went with Atem, they could no longer destroy anyone who replicated them due to them being in another dimension? and since only a few people know what really happened with the Egyptian Gods perhaps Kaiba was the only one brave enough to attempt recreating god. Personal theories are fun.
Wasnt there a bad guy with an Imitation Ra in GX? Which makes me think that "the gods are sealed away thus they cant be mad about duplicates made anymore" very valid
@@colmecolwag yes and Ra was mad as heck the only reason that guy could control it was because of a field spell he created.... which makes no sense since Ra would be immune to those anyway due to his anime effects kaiba was able to use the original obelisk card because obelisk chose him to do so obelisk wouldn't care that kaiba doing it plus in the movie it's implied that this isn't a copy but the real obelisk
@@jmansword wait are you saying field spells don’t work or just effects? We’ve had effects working on the various god cards including Ra. I think the only thing is they can’t specifically target them, but if they affect the field they work. This can be seen with Yugi vs Marik where Yugi uses Ragnarok to destroy all monsters including Ra. I don’t remember much about GX’s duels, but you said it was a field spell which those usually don’t target specific cards. Looking up the actual effects the card doesn’t seem to target Ra, it also doesn’t have any gaining control over gods description so that’s mostly just the anime wanting to have chains and look cool while not giving it the effect it’s displaying.
@@anthonynguyen1289 i'd assume so in the anime we never see anyone acutally use a field spell with them on the field.. so it make sense right if there is an instance someone does please tell me i could very well have missed something
Dimension summoning in a way seemed like a forced shortcut so kaiba and yugi could still just plop down large main deck monsters faster like modern dueling considering how bricky their aces and similar monsters can be usually being aided by plot driven nut draws or back field shenanigans
it was more of a way to make cubics viable in the movie. irl most cubics suck badly and barely work as intended but by changing the rules a bit their gimmicks actualy did something.
I still think this should've been called some kind of variation of a "Shadow Game." It even plays more akin to the ancient Shadow games than even Duel Monsters itself, with Dimension summoning using spiritual energy!
The 8000lp, (or 4000lp buffer) was necessary for how Aigami was literally shaving off almost 8k during his opening turns for both duels he was in. (Not including his dark final duel persona.)
One issue I have with the dimension duels in the movie is that they say you have to use your spirit or energy In order to give your monsters attack points. But that's not really taken advantage of by any player. It's just an excuse to make the duels quicker and get their powerful monsters out faster. Would have been cool for yugi or kaiba in their duel to deliberately not give their monster attack points, or give it like half points so they wouldn't lose as many life points.
Yugi should have taken advantage of that mechanic when he dueled Aigami as if Aigami didn’t play cubic wave, Yugi’s Dimension sphinx wouldn’t have worked. So logically speaking he should have summoned lord Gaia with like 200, the when Aigami résumons cubic emperor, it’d be at 900 and still allow his dimension trap pyramid.
8:00 Kaiba got Obelisk by using his tech witch alowed him to just wish a card to existance since his all his "cards" does not exist, There is also a theory that Yugi never called Atem in duel against Aigami it was still Yugi but with power of millennium puzzle this is also why we never see Atem speak
Seems like a surprisingly well thought out mechanic for something meant to just speed up the movies. I'd be down to see this implemented and given some support. Cards that let you go past 100% or restrict how high your opponents can get, that kinda thing
I think one point you did not point out (or atleast not completly) is that when a dimension summoned monster is destroyed you lose life points equal to the attack that monster CURRENTLY has. For example while Kaiba summoned all his monsters with 100%, Diva used the effect of a trap card to reduce his monsters attack to 0 and when Diva later destroyed those monsters Kaiba took no damage from the attack.
While cool in concept , Dimension Dueling feels like it was written with convenience in mind. On top of the slightly updated decks, Dimension Dueling seems to exist primarily to speed up the duels a bit and to make Kaiba and Yugi's decks less bricky
Of course it's written with convenience in mind, duel-technically it's basically a modernized version of Duelist Kingdom duels, while story-wise it's just an excuse to pander to the fanbase by having Kaiba summon Obelisk again, and by bringing back Atem. Dimension Duels basically amount to nothing more than "early Yu-Gi-Oh! shenanigans: the Movie".
@@zimonzieclown1633 to be fair, the whole movie is just "fanservice: the movie" anyway. So its not that big of a deal. Still wish they'd given more thought to it or even ommited Dimension Dueling alltogether
@@Aruna_Shadows Well, yeah. Sorry for not pointing it out. I meant that he was not flowing his spirit in because he had no reason to. 100% of a zero is still a zero.
You seemingly forgot one rule, a player can (special)dimension Summon during the battle phase... Kaiba special summoned Blue eyes alternative during the battle phase which is not a legal move, I can excuse it for Aigami since his cards say that it can be done during the battle phase but BEAWD doesn't(fun fact:cubic monsters stack onto each other...doesn't that make the anime cubic monsters XYZ monsters that can be summoned during the BP?!?!?)
The only reason yugi was able to summon Atem is because the puzzle was completed and it's possible that he wished for Atem to appear, as Atem is their final hope as Kaiba suggested. Remember the rules upon completion of the puzzle which will grant you a wish. So regardless if it happened during dimension duel or not, doesn't matter.
Or duelis road dumbass No one ; no one can defeat cubic trinity lord Rainbo neos effect Cyber angel dakin effect Skill drain Reverse glasses Traptrix night mare
We need a Field spell called Cubic Dimension. Your Cubic monsters cannot be destroyed by card effects. If you control a cubic monster, you can draw 2 cards from your deck. Lvl 5 or higher monsters can be summoned without tributing. If a monster is destroyed by battle, inflict damage equal to their attack in addition to the damage.
The idea of dimension dueling sounded really really cool to me when I watched the movie and I was a bit disappointed when later seasons did not do anything that ridiculous. Instead opting to link summoning and whatever was the summon gimmick from sevens. But I do understand why because dimension dueling is pretty much in a way kind of like what our dueling is in the real world so it would make no sense for them to promote a dueling style that we already have in the real world when in none of the previous animes did it ever become an actual thing. Regardless it's still a very interesting and cool idea and made for some pretty impressive visuals for the monsters when they do come out to fight. Great job on the video as usual TGS!
@@Blaze_the_cat_ OK thank you for bringing that up to my attention because I'm used to every yugioh season having a brand new gimmick which translates into the real world card game lol.
Another rule that you would see with a better detail. Unlike the tcg/ocg rules with the cubic mechanic (the monsters that uses vijam(s) to be summoned have the effect of "desintegrate" to reform vijams and then search for another cubic monster from deck) you CAN summon the new cubic monster searched in THAT moment. In the movie aigami/diva attack with the first cubic to desintegrate in 2 and then summon the cubic that needs 2 vijam, desintegrate to 3 and summon the one that requires 3, that is a move that you can´t do in tcg/ocg because you have to summon the cubic ONLY ON MAIN PHASES. This hidden mechanic of summon allows diva/aigami to perform specials summons on battle phase. Even Kaiba special summon on battle phase (the alternative blue eyes), but because its a DIMENSION SUMMON you can do that
People always say it was a mechanic made to speed things up. To which I say, if they wanted to do that they would have kept LP at 4000, like they did with something like Vrains. I think Dimension Duels would be legit fun to an extent and I'm gonna see if anyone wants to do it :3 Thank you for explaining the rules of it as well
Honestly one of the best things you can do with this mechanic is to not give any spirit to monsters you are summoning purely for their effects (anything with an 'on summon' trigger, any flip effect monster, any monster you want to do something when destroyed etc) and save it for any big beater actually worth a darn. That, or playing very effect destruction heavy to exploit the fact that dimension dueling is effectively all burn damage. Makes you wonder, do cards and card effects that interact with burn damage interact with dimension duel 'burn' damage?
Kind of wish the ending was slightly different but still a good movie. I would have loved to see yugi pull out the win, maybe like before he passed out the ghost of atem would grab his shoulder and say, a champion should not be on his knees, as a call back to their duel. Then yugi with newfound strength does what atem did with atem's help. But that's just me. Good movie definitely worth the watch.
Yeah they had to find a way to get Atem in the movie instead of just the ending. I like that they made efforts to make Yugi alone look strong especially towards the end of the anime/Manga and GX, even in the movie he does beat both Aigami and Kaiba. Atem's appearance looked AWESOME but I agree they missed the opportunity to end the OG series with Yugi clearly being the King Of Games and defeating this otherworldly threat
I would add a rule essentially a footnote to the last point TGS made that is essentially, "If your spirit is strong enough and with a viable connection, you may draw and will cards that are no longer in existence." similarly to how Kaiba summoned Obelisk and how Atem summoned Mahad(who's a dead spirit)
Also not to mention there was no difference between a main and battle phase. THEN on top of that they never seemed to be tired from giving max spirit each time.
Real life equivalent should have the summons power depend on the amount of blood the summoner contributes to the summon to stick with the energy aspect. Each player has there own cup that sits beside the extra monster zone.
I'd play Dimension as a format for MD. It could solve many of Yugioh's old tribute issues while providing the game with new combos the devs didn't see coming.
Honestly, this explaination of how Obelisk and Atem returned kind of makes a lot of sense. As far as why Aigami, Kaiba, Yugi used full spirit to boost the attacks, I believe the writers did that to show off how strong they are as duelists. The is especially poignant for Yugi. It shows how far he's come since Duelist Kingdom. Also, it just dawned on me. Your room looks like Yugi's room because of the window in the angled roof.
For the last dimension summoning mechanic, be it Atem or Obelisk. If we actually wanted to play something as wacky and similar. It could be one additional summon from your side deck, or say in a best of 3, a card that was successfully summoned in a previous round. Even if cards were swapped out for sides. If this is the case maybe side deck limit 6 and you must declare 3 potentual dimension summons from your side deck, so your opponent can counter the rng of the summoning. Spirit gauge for ease of usage, irl should be limited to 0%/50%/100%.
Great video! I have another video idea, this question is in my head for a long time now: When and (more important) why did Yami Bakura change his plan regarding the millenium items? In the beginning of the show as well as in later seasons, Yami Bakura always states he wants to assemble all millenium items to free zorc (that's what he means when he speaks about getting ultimate power). But in the last season, he doesn't care about doing this in the present time anymore, although he could easily take all the items from Weevil and Rex. Instead, he gives them back to the Pharao and creates his Dark RPG. That is never really explained (as far as I remember) and so the complete motivation for his character in seasons 1/2 doesn't make much sense in hindsight. Maybe that's worth a speculation video :) thanks for your content anyway!
My personal headcanon is that the Quantum Cube is an artifact created by an earlier version of the massacre ritual that created the Millennium Items. It's the "eighth Millennium Item" in the sense that it's a prototype/proof-of-concept for the later seven.
1) You must play in the space between dimensions. If you do not go here it does not count. You’re just a weirdo if you play within your dimension. 2) All duelists start with 5 cards and draw 1 each turn, even when going first. 3) 8000 LP per player/team at the start of the duel. 4) You can allocate a summon to be a “Dimension Summon” so long as you declare it before carrying on. A dimension summon is defined as summoning a monster by any means alongside this declaration. 4a) If a sacrifice would be required for the normal summon of a monster, but it is declared a dimension summon, you bypass the tribute cost in exchange for summoning your monster at 0/0. 4b) If you declare this on a normal summon, it is still treated as a normal summon. If you declare this on a special summon, it is still treated as a special summon. There is no limit on the number of dimension summons you can declare per turn. 4c) You can declare a percentage of “spirit” to apply to a monster at the time of its dimension summon. The percentage you declare will restore that percentage of their printed attack and defense. 4d) Battles involving dimension summoned monsters result in 0 battle damage taken, however, upon destruction( the user of a dimension summoned monster will take damage equivalent to the attack/defense of the monster respective to the position it was in when it was destroyed. 4e) The status of “dimension summoned” is transferred to any monster which has a dimension summoned monster equipped to it or present on the field as a material for its summon. 5) You can dimension summon 1 creature from outside of your deck per duel, regardless of whether they are a playable card or not.
honestly there are some really cool Anime only mechanics that never got brought into the TCG/OCG and it annoys me, Dimension summoning/dueling is one, obviously, but another one is Accel-Synchro summoning, which was basically Synchro's version of super polymerization, major difference would be you could only do it with monsters you controlled, but it acted like a "spell speed 4" quick play effect, was really cool in 5d's am I'm still sad it never became real.
@@yunonasumi7982 Their anime/manga effects of the big Cubics allowed them to stack and summon themselves during the Battle Phase. This was not a Dimension Duel rule. Them being inherent summons is irrelevant.
Yeah, I kinda asked myself the same question while watching the movie. Why did they came up with this mechanic just to kinda throw it away almost instantly by giving them 100% every single time? I have a possible answer, and that is because they're the protagonists and have a LOT of willpower and "spirit", and it does seem to require some mental effort to manifest it. That's also probably why Diva has beaten those throwaway characters so easily, no willpower = no atk for their monsters. I just wish they showed us a duel involving someone incapable of manifesting that much spirit energy, just to make it a bit more important that it ended up being.
I think they should have made Spirit be a resource the Duelist themselves has to manage. Like for example each Duelist has a maximum total of 200% Spirit, which means they could summon two monsters at 100% Spirit. Or they could summon one at 100% and two at 50% Spirit. Then have this resource be refunded when a monster using Spirit leaves the field. That way you can't just 100% everything.
Honestly, if I were to make anything like this, I'd just skip the whole percentage part of things and make it so that you have to decide what the monsters stats will be by simply stating the numbers (and obviously they can't exceed the monster's actual stats). Way less maths that way, plus it avoids the weirdness when you decide to give a monster with xx50 attack power an odd percentage, leading to it a certain amount of attack power plus half an attack point -- not to mention the madness that can happen when you take percentage decimals into account.
Well that’s understandable if you have a card like “trap hole” for example it only works if your opponent normal summons a monster. If dimension summoning isn’t considered a normal summon a counter with cards that are only activated through normal summon conditions would not work. Just like the magnet warrior effect yugi used at the beginning wouldn’t work. Those cards effect would have needed to be replaced by their dimensional counterparts. Or their effects would have probably been corrected by the dimensions they were dueling in. It’s like playing the old game yugioh game where you could just fuse monsters by just summoning them in the same monster zone like overlapping them without the use of polymerization. Or lose one of the materials use for the attempted fusion if the monsters wasn’t compatible.That game was more like a Pokémon type matching game where an earth card would body a lightning card with 10000 attack points with a 300 attack point Muka muka without taking damage. Ritual monsters were like divine monsters because their types were neutral could only be destroyed by a stronger monster or a card effect. That game was tricky because I didn’t have the manual neither did it explain how to fusion summon it was a little tricky figuring out the rules and how to use the low level monsters to make better fusion summon. The level cap your monster use at the beginning so you have to grind your duelist level to be able to use card’s with higher levels. There was no extra deck. At There was also no spell and trap card zone I didn’t know how to use the ritual card since basically you only needed the spell card to summon the ritual monster by sacrificing two cards. That’s what this duel reminded me of.
So would you be near impossible to beat if you made you deck with mostly/only 0 ATK monsters? Yubel would finally be meta with Relinquished being a close second.
So understood the point about cyber dragon and liked you used an example. I just think it is funny you used machine dup the card you can use on almost every card in the deck Ps: the one thing never clarified about Dimension duels is how much “spirit” do you get in a turn
I heard somewhere the Pyramid of Light was supposed to be a Millennium Item, meant for Kaiba as a counterpart/rival to the Millennium Puzzle. So wouldn't Aigami's cube be the *9TH* Millennium Item?!?!?
Dimension duel: you could go 0% to 100% atk/def in a duel, if it gets destroyed, you get dmg equal to its atk Me: laughs in Yubel terror incarnate, cries in ultimate nightmare
@@hedhehogsilver2996 Oh? you can destroy all monsters? very well then, I can just pull out yubel, sacrifice one of my monsters each turn, and laugh while you cry
I'm looking forward to the Yugi vs igami duel explanation, because igami summons like 6 monsters in a battle phase AND attacks each time, as an O.G. /goat player, I call shenanigans
Can you please explain to me in detail what would happen if I chose to dimension summon a Relinquished with 0 spirit. Same question with 100 spirit. Yes, I know it has 0 attack. That's why I'm asking for details. Also, what happens if Relinquished absorbs an enemy monster. Relinquished dimensioned, absorbs normal enemy monster. Relinquished normal absorbs enemy dimensioned monster. If you don't know what would happen, that's fine.
You forgot one specific rule here You can dimension summon through the battle phase as well. This was performed by both Kaiba(blue eyes alternate white dragon) and agami (his cubic beasts / cubic kings)
The thing that really confused or bothered me about Dark Side of Dimensions is why they chose Atem to defeat Aigami instead of Yugi. Yugi is shown to be a more than capable duelist at this point, achieving feats such as defeating the Egyptian Gods. He, or at least Kaiba, should have defeated Diva
Also, the return of Atem sealed the Prana's powers, making all of Diva's efforts basically useless. Which makes for a really dumb resolution of events, despite not being necessarily a Deus Ex Machina in the proper sense.
"It could be an alternate form for you to play the game at home." Oh, cool. "The duel takes place in an alternative dimension." Huh.
2 года назад
It's kinda funny. There are 2 different kinds of Dimension Summoning mechanics. The Movie kind & Duel Links kind. =) Though than again: The Duel Links one is basically the old Duel Kingdom rule of: "You can summon any high level monster without any tribute & without consequences". xD lol
A rule you missed about Dimension Dueling is that you are allowed to Dimension Summon monsters during your Battle Phase (if able to), since in Seto Kaiba’s Duel against Aigami, he attacked with two Krystal Dragons, then summoned Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon, and immediately attacked with that new monster. (Aigami also summoned stuff during his Battle Phase multiple times when he Dimensioned Summoned his Cubic Kings and Cubic Beasts)
If you use Spirit Energy to determine the stats of the monster, and Spirit Energy uses a percentage scale; doesn't that mean if you choose 56%, for example, its ATK/DEF could be a wierd value, like 1670.
How do you think this would apply to Extra Deck Mechanics? Let's use your example and say you dimension summon Cyber Dragon with zero attack then use Machine Duplication to summon 2 more copies. Then you overlay the dimension summoned Cyber Dragon with one of the other Cyber Dragons to summon to summon Cyber Dragon Nova. Does this mean that Nova is treated as being dimension summoned since it used the Dimension summoned Cyber Dragon to summon Nova?
I mean, the way to integrate this “mechanic” into the real game would be to make a Field Spell for Cubics Cubic Dimension Field Spell When this card is activated: You can reveal 1 “Cubic” monster from your hand; take 1 “Cubic” card from your Deck, except “Cubic Dimension”, and either add it to your hand or send it to the GY. The turn player can Special Summon monsters using their own procedure during the Battle Phase. If a monster(s) is destroyed by battle or by card effect, its controller takes damage equal to the ATK or DEF that monster(s) had on the field in the battle positions they were in. You can only activate 1 “Cubic Dimension” per turn.
That last rule pointed out be like "Ok, pretty standard stuff. Right? Oh yeah, you can also access space and time to deploy multiverse Tokyo Drifting shenanigans. Welp! That about wraps up this video!" Me who wants to know more about how this children's card game can summon spirits of the dead: "Wait! What was that last bit?"
Well, yugi actually didnt summon atem, as he said to kaiba, he cannot bring the pharaoh back, the pharaoh has to choose for himself, as for obelisk, since that tomb was the place where atem has departed, it makes sense that he could dimension summon obelisk
I liked how Duel Links handled it by just making it so you can normal summon without tribute during the few events it happened. I ended up using Blue-Eyes or a level 9 deck for these events. Not the most exciting duel type that they reimagined for the game, but I appreciate that they try and incorporate them as we only got anime 5ds Turbo Duels in the WC games, tag duels died out after Tag Force Special and it was the first time we got an official way to play Action Duels. I’m hoping that the Speed Duel sets continue to go strong and that they print skill cards to help reflect these dueling styles, maybe even printing Action Cards as proper Action Cards and not just edited for the normal game if it ever gets to Arc V. Also hoping that Dimension Duels come back for an event. There are still some DSOD characters to include and it is taking way too long to give us Strings for DM.
Count me having 2 cents, here's my thought if dimension summon is on real life duel is based on the rules in the movie, but a twist that if the dimen-summoned monster destroyed, they placed in extra deck I could see the mechanic is co-linked with pendulum. I mean, both are heavy weighted on dimension

I think you missed a detail for rule 7, when a dimension summoned monster is destroy (either by battle or card effect) you take damage equal to that monster's ATK/DEF. You still take damage if the dimension summoned monster is destroyed by a card effect. An example of this is when Kaiba uses Obelisk effect to deal 4000 damage to Aigami as well as destroy all of his monsters (which in this case is a 3000 buster gundil), and Aigami took 7000 damage in total. Imagine how OP Mirror Force would be if Yugi uses it in this movie
That would be the cost.
You weren't paying attention he said if the monster is destroyed without being specific
Holy crap finally found the answer to why he took 7k damage. I knew obelisk did 4k direct damage when his effect was used, but I never knew why he took the extra 3k. I just thought it was only if the monster was destroyed through battle. Thank you
New video: Was Kaiba About to Defeat Aigami, or vice versa?
It's like the Ba and Ka from the final arc of the final arc. When the monster (Ka) is summoned, it's summoned using spirit energy (Ba). But if it's defeated, then that spirit energy isn't there anymore, so the user takes that as damage. That's an interesting way to bring that idea back for this style of dueling.
Yo, you right! We got the Ka-style back via Dimension Dueling... yet it feels rather off that they started the story plot via the '8th' Millenium Item... which just feels cheap.
Atem's showing up at the end is still one of the best entrances in anime
It also screwed up with Yugi's arc
@@kindlingking Nobody watched this wshow for yugi
One pretty cool detail about Dimension Duels in DSOD is that they more or less serve as a throw-back to the original Shadow Games we see in the final Millennium World arc. Dimension Summoning actually works quite a bit like the summoning of Monster Spirits, with the summoner using their 'spirit' to call and empower their servant monster, and then suffer injury/damage if that monster is destroyed.
I just rewatched this movie, so this was a fun watch. Also, according to kaiba, his new bleeding edge, state of the art, high tech system allows him to access every card he has ever own, which would include obelisk. My guess was that because Obelisk wasn't being imitated by physical means and just digitalized (Cause otherwise him pulling obelisk is straight up cheating) means that Obelisk perhaps couldn't recognize that its likeness was being replicated. It could also be that since the Egyptian God cards went with Atem, they could no longer destroy anyone who replicated them due to them being in another dimension? and since only a few people know what really happened with the Egyptian Gods perhaps Kaiba was the only one brave enough to attempt recreating god.
Personal theories are fun.
Wasnt there a bad guy with an Imitation Ra in GX? Which makes me think that "the gods are sealed away thus they cant be mad about duplicates made anymore" very valid
@@colmecolwag yes and Ra was mad as heck the only reason that guy could control it was because of a field spell he created.... which makes no sense since Ra would be immune to those anyway due to his anime effects
kaiba was able to use the original obelisk card because obelisk chose him to do so obelisk wouldn't care that kaiba doing it plus in the movie it's implied that this isn't a copy but the real obelisk
@@jmansword wait are you saying field spells don’t work or just effects? We’ve had effects working on the various god cards including Ra. I think the only thing is they can’t specifically target them, but if they affect the field they work. This can be seen with Yugi vs Marik where Yugi uses Ragnarok to destroy all monsters including Ra. I don’t remember much about GX’s duels, but you said it was a field spell which those usually don’t target specific cards. Looking up the actual effects the card doesn’t seem to target Ra, it also doesn’t have any gaining control over gods description so that’s mostly just the anime wanting to have chains and look cool while not giving it the effect it’s displaying.
@@anthonynguyen1289 i'd assume so in the anime we never see anyone acutally use a field spell with them on the field.. so it make sense right
if there is an instance someone does please tell me i could very well have missed something
@@jmansword honestly field spells are rarely used if at all by any of the god card holders. There’s not too much to go off of I think
Dimension summoning in a way seemed like a forced shortcut so kaiba and yugi could still just plop down large main deck monsters faster like modern dueling considering how bricky their aces and similar monsters can be usually being aided by plot driven nut draws or back field shenanigans
Could’ve been a perfect time to reveal retrained versions with special summons to present modern era versions but alas not much was revealed.
That is essentially what blue eyes white alternative dragon is. Blue-Eyes but you can special summon it.
Just wait till we get dimension monsters... monsters that are betwern the extra deck and main deck. Ya'll thought link monsterd were busted
@@kookou13 I guess pendulum cards doesn't count as between main and extra deck. But pendulums uses both.
it was more of a way to make cubics viable in the movie.
irl most cubics suck badly and barely work as intended but by changing the rules a bit their gimmicks actualy did something.
I still think this should've been called some kind of variation of a "Shadow Game." It even plays more akin to the ancient Shadow games than even Duel Monsters itself, with Dimension summoning using spiritual energy!
The 8000lp, (or 4000lp buffer) was necessary for how Aigami was literally shaving off almost 8k during his opening turns for both duels he was in. (Not including his dark final duel persona.)
One issue I have with the dimension duels in the movie is that they say you have to use your spirit or energy In order to give your monsters attack points. But that's not really taken advantage of by any player. It's just an excuse to make the duels quicker and get their powerful monsters out faster. Would have been cool for yugi or kaiba in their duel to deliberately not give their monster attack points, or give it like half points so they wouldn't lose as many life points.
ALL of them used 100% spirit, except Aigami xD whose monsters gain attack after the summon.
Yeah either that or their resolve flinching or something and they are not able to fully power their monster
Yugi should have taken advantage of that mechanic when he dueled Aigami as if Aigami didn’t play cubic wave, Yugi’s Dimension sphinx wouldn’t have worked. So logically speaking he should have summoned lord Gaia with like 200, the when Aigami résumons cubic emperor, it’d be at 900 and still allow his dimension trap pyramid.
It would have been interesting if at the end of the duel, they would give less spirit because they were exhausted.
@@firewolf950tfwgaming7 here's duza th meteor cubi vessel ( diva clip )
Honestly, I'd love to see someone try an actual dimension duel. This breakdown helped enormously so seeing it in action would help even more.
8:00 Kaiba got Obelisk by using his tech witch alowed him to just wish a card to existance since his all his "cards" does not exist, There is also a theory that Yugi never called Atem in duel against Aigami it was still Yugi but with power of millennium puzzle this is also why we never see Atem speak
Seems like a surprisingly well thought out mechanic for something meant to just speed up the movies. I'd be down to see this implemented and given some support. Cards that let you go past 100% or restrict how high your opponents can get, that kinda thing
I think one point you did not point out (or atleast not completly) is that when a dimension summoned monster is destroyed you lose life points equal to the attack that monster CURRENTLY has. For example while Kaiba summoned all his monsters with 100%, Diva used the effect of a trap card to reduce his monsters attack to 0 and when Diva later destroyed those monsters Kaiba took no damage from the attack.
While cool in concept , Dimension Dueling feels like it was written with convenience in mind.
On top of the slightly updated decks, Dimension Dueling seems to exist primarily to speed up the duels a bit and to make Kaiba and Yugi's decks less bricky
Of course it's written with convenience in mind, duel-technically it's basically a modernized version of Duelist Kingdom duels, while story-wise it's just an excuse to pander to the fanbase by having Kaiba summon Obelisk again, and by bringing back Atem. Dimension Duels basically amount to nothing more than "early Yu-Gi-Oh! shenanigans: the Movie".
If with anyone else than diva ; nothin bout dimension duel again
@@zimonzieclown1633 to be fair, the whole movie is just "fanservice: the movie" anyway. So its not that big of a deal. Still wish they'd given more thought to it or even ommited Dimension Dueling alltogether
@@filipvadas7602 I agree.
Will you ever do a "Was ____ about to defeat _____?" for Arc-V?
8:35 Except Aigami who always used 0%. Always found it fun how he never relied on flowing spirit into his monsters.
Vijam's original attack points are already 0. I researched his cards a bit.
@@Aruna_Shadows Well, yeah. Sorry for not pointing it out. I meant that he was not flowing his spirit in because he had no reason to. 100% of a zero is still a zero.
You seemingly forgot one rule, a player can (special)dimension Summon during the battle phase...
Kaiba special summoned Blue eyes alternative during the battle phase which is not a legal move, I can excuse it for Aigami since his cards say that it can be done during the battle phase but BEAWD doesn't(fun fact:cubic monsters stack onto each other...doesn't that make the anime cubic monsters XYZ monsters that can be summoned during the BP?!?!?)
The only reason yugi was able to summon Atem is because the puzzle was completed and it's possible that he wished for Atem to appear, as Atem is their final hope as Kaiba suggested. Remember the rules upon completion of the puzzle which will grant you a wish. So regardless if it happened during dimension duel or not, doesn't matter.
Dimension Duels are one of my favourite types of dueling format of Yugioh and it’s so much fun to play during the event for Aigami in Duel Links
Or duelis road dumbass
No one ; no one can defeat cubic trinity lord
Rainbo neos effect
Cyber angel dakin effect
Skill drain
Reverse glasses
Traptrix night mare
This movie was so satisfying. The fact that Atem never said a word was just the ultimate boss moment.
I feel like sometimes the anime makes the game more fun than the actual game
We need a Field spell called Cubic Dimension. Your Cubic monsters cannot be destroyed by card effects. If you control a cubic monster, you can draw 2 cards from your deck. Lvl 5 or higher monsters can be summoned without tributing. If a monster is destroyed by battle, inflict damage equal to their attack in addition to the damage.
Then it be R rarity at mD
@@destinycybermic6930 Likely super rare.
The idea of dimension dueling sounded really really cool to me when I watched the movie and I was a bit disappointed when later seasons did not do anything that ridiculous. Instead opting to link summoning and whatever was the summon gimmick from sevens. But I do understand why because dimension dueling is pretty much in a way kind of like what our dueling is in the real world so it would make no sense for them to promote a dueling style that we already have in the real world when in none of the previous animes did it ever become an actual thing. Regardless it's still a very interesting and cool idea and made for some pretty impressive visuals for the monsters when they do come out to fight. Great job on the video as usual TGS!
Sevens didn't have a gimmick but just a new style of duling
@@Blaze_the_cat_ OK thank you for bringing that up to my attention because I'm used to every yugioh season having a brand new gimmick which translates into the real world card game lol.
@@MrDarksol It spawned basically a different card game, Rush Duel, with new card types, field, basic mechanics and all
@@RRS_027 Thanks.
Sevens had Maximum Summon, where three cards become one monster on the field, but it's rush duel only.
Another rule that you would see with a better detail. Unlike the tcg/ocg rules with the cubic mechanic (the monsters that uses vijam(s) to be summoned have the effect of "desintegrate" to reform vijams and then search for another cubic monster from deck) you CAN summon the new cubic monster searched in THAT moment. In the movie aigami/diva attack with the first cubic to desintegrate in 2 and then summon the cubic that needs 2 vijam, desintegrate to 3 and summon the one that requires 3, that is a move that you can´t do in tcg/ocg because you have to summon the cubic ONLY ON MAIN PHASES. This hidden mechanic of summon allows diva/aigami to perform specials summons on battle phase. Even Kaiba special summon on battle phase (the alternative blue eyes), but because its a DIMENSION SUMMON you can do that
Still waiting for the true rules for speed duels and action duels. Or as I like to call them, bank on your skill or an action card to save your ass
I think there is a speed duel video
@@nerazim1110 Theres no true rules of Speed duels yet, I think you meant Turbo Duels.
People always say it was a mechanic made to speed things up. To which I say, if they wanted to do that they would have kept LP at 4000, like they did with something like Vrains. I think Dimension Duels would be legit fun to an extent and I'm gonna see if anyone wants to do it :3
Thank you for explaining the rules of it as well
Honestly one of the best things you can do with this mechanic is to not give any spirit to monsters you are summoning purely for their effects (anything with an 'on summon' trigger, any flip effect monster, any monster you want to do something when destroyed etc) and save it for any big beater actually worth a darn. That, or playing very effect destruction heavy to exploit the fact that dimension dueling is effectively all burn damage.
Makes you wonder, do cards and card effects that interact with burn damage interact with dimension duel 'burn' damage?
Kind of wish the ending was slightly different but still a good movie.
I would have loved to see yugi pull out the win, maybe like before he passed out the ghost of atem would grab his shoulder and say, a champion should not be on his knees, as a call back to their duel. Then yugi with newfound strength does what atem did with atem's help. But that's just me. Good movie definitely worth the watch.
Yeah they had to find a way to get Atem in the movie instead of just the ending. I like that they made efforts to make Yugi alone look strong especially towards the end of the anime/Manga and GX, even in the movie he does beat both Aigami and Kaiba. Atem's appearance looked AWESOME but I agree they missed the opportunity to end the OG series with Yugi clearly being the King Of Games and defeating this otherworldly threat
I would add a rule essentially a footnote to the last point TGS made that is essentially, "If your spirit is strong enough and with a viable connection, you may draw and will cards that are no longer in existence." similarly to how Kaiba summoned Obelisk and how Atem summoned Mahad(who's a dead spirit)
Also not to mention there was no difference between a main and battle phase. THEN on top of that they never seemed to be tired from giving max spirit each time.
I just got done rewatching this movie, it's still so cool and dimension dueling with such a Interesting concept
8'000 starting Life Points allows to have longer duels with some extra room to topdeck something game-changing.
Curios, is there any game that tried to adapt this mechanic for a few scenario duels?
Real life equivalent should have the summons power depend on the amount of blood the summoner contributes to the summon to stick with the energy aspect. Each player has there own cup that sits beside the extra monster zone.
Please do true rules of action duels and Duel Coaster from Zexal as well cause I'm really looking forward to them both
I've been looking for something like this! Thank you, this was a great help for a fanfiction I am working on, where there's a dimension duel going on!
I'd play Dimension as a format for MD. It could solve many of Yugioh's old tribute issues while providing the game with new combos the devs didn't see coming.
Honestly, this explaination of how Obelisk and Atem returned kind of makes a lot of sense. As far as why Aigami, Kaiba, Yugi used full spirit to boost the attacks, I believe the writers did that to show off how strong they are as duelists. The is especially poignant for Yugi. It shows how far he's come since Duelist Kingdom.
Also, it just dawned on me. Your room looks like Yugi's room because of the window in the angled roof.
For the last dimension summoning mechanic, be it Atem or Obelisk. If we actually wanted to play something as wacky and similar. It could be one additional summon from your side deck, or say in a best of 3, a card that was successfully summoned in a previous round. Even if cards were swapped out for sides. If this is the case maybe side deck limit 6 and you must declare 3 potentual dimension summons from your side deck, so your opponent can counter the rng of the summoning. Spirit gauge for ease of usage, irl should be limited to 0%/50%/100%.
Could be wrong but I'm FAIRLY certain Dimension Duels are an attempt to mimick the Egypt Arc's Ba and Ka battles.
Great video! I have another video idea, this question is in my head for a long time now: When and (more important) why did Yami Bakura change his plan regarding the millenium items? In the beginning of the show as well as in later seasons, Yami Bakura always states he wants to assemble all millenium items to free zorc (that's what he means when he speaks about getting ultimate power). But in the last season, he doesn't care about doing this in the present time anymore, although he could easily take all the items from Weevil and Rex. Instead, he gives them back to the Pharao and creates his Dark RPG. That is never really explained (as far as I remember) and so the complete motivation for his character in seasons 1/2 doesn't make much sense in hindsight. Maybe that's worth a speculation video :) thanks for your content anyway!
You forgot to mention this. Rule #9, Dimension Summoned monsters cannot be Tributed.
I thought this mechanic was a bit of a mashup-callback to season 1 summoning and damage mechanics combined with the Memory World "Ba" mechanic.
My personal headcanon is that the Quantum Cube is an artifact created by an earlier version of the massacre ritual that created the Millennium Items. It's the "eighth Millennium Item" in the sense that it's a prototype/proof-of-concept for the later seven.
1) You must play in the space between dimensions. If you do not go here it does not count. You’re just a weirdo if you play within your dimension.
2) All duelists start with 5 cards and draw 1 each turn, even when going first.
3) 8000 LP per player/team at the start of the duel.
4) You can allocate a summon to be a “Dimension Summon” so long as you declare it before carrying on. A dimension summon is defined as summoning a monster by any means alongside this declaration.
4a) If a sacrifice would be required for the normal summon of a monster, but it is declared a dimension summon, you bypass the tribute cost in exchange for summoning your monster at 0/0.
4b) If you declare this on a normal summon, it is still treated as a normal summon. If you declare this on a special summon, it is still treated as a special summon. There is no limit on the number of dimension summons you can declare per turn.
4c) You can declare a percentage of “spirit” to apply to a monster at the time of its dimension summon. The percentage you declare will restore that percentage of their printed attack and defense.
4d) Battles involving dimension summoned monsters result in 0 battle damage taken, however, upon destruction( the user of a dimension summoned monster will take damage equivalent to the attack/defense of the monster respective to the position it was in when it was destroyed.
4e) The status of “dimension summoned” is transferred to any monster which has a dimension summoned monster equipped to it or present on the field as a material for its summon.
5) You can dimension summon 1 creature from outside of your deck per duel, regardless of whether they are a playable card or not.
Hey, brother, I'd love to see your take on if Yuma was about to beat Kite in their match after the duel carnival. Great video as always!
Dam not anime again
honestly there are some really cool Anime only mechanics that never got brought into the TCG/OCG and it annoys me, Dimension summoning/dueling is one, obviously, but another one is Accel-Synchro summoning, which was basically Synchro's version of super polymerization, major difference would be you could only do it with monsters you controlled, but it acted like a "spell speed 4" quick play effect, was really cool in 5d's am I'm still sad it never became real.
3:13 - Aogami said Dimension summoning was *required,* not optional.
You forgot that dimension summons can be conducted during the battle phase.
Not true. The battle phase summons were because of Aigami’s Cubic monster effects.
@@sundad Nope. The effects are inherent summons (like Cyber Dragon). They can't be done during the BP.
@@yunonasumi7982 Their anime/manga effects of the big Cubics allowed them to stack and summon themselves during the Battle Phase. This was not a Dimension Duel rule.
Them being inherent summons is irrelevant.
Yeah, I kinda asked myself the same question while watching the movie. Why did they came up with this mechanic just to kinda throw it away almost instantly by giving them 100% every single time?
I have a possible answer, and that is because they're the protagonists and have a LOT of willpower and "spirit", and it does seem to require some mental effort to manifest it.
That's also probably why Diva has beaten those throwaway characters so easily, no willpower = no atk for their monsters. I just wish they showed us a duel involving someone incapable of manifesting that much spirit energy, just to make it a bit more important that it ended up being.
I think they should have made Spirit be a resource the Duelist themselves has to manage. Like for example each Duelist has a maximum total of 200% Spirit, which means they could summon two monsters at 100% Spirit. Or they could summon one at 100% and two at 50% Spirit. Then have this resource be refunded when a monster using Spirit leaves the field. That way you can't just 100% everything.
I had an entire deck of high level monsters from 7-10 for the duel links dimension event entirely useless except for that event.
This would be actually interesting in MD, and since it’s digital it would be easier to calculate percentages and what nots.
Honestly, if I were to make anything like this, I'd just skip the whole percentage part of things and make it so that you have to decide what the monsters stats will be by simply stating the numbers (and obviously they can't exceed the monster's actual stats). Way less maths that way, plus it avoids the weirdness when you decide to give a monster with xx50 attack power an odd percentage, leading to it a certain amount of attack power plus half an attack point -- not to mention the madness that can happen when you take percentage decimals into account.
Well that’s understandable if you have a card like “trap hole” for example it only works if your opponent normal summons a monster. If dimension summoning isn’t considered a normal summon a counter with cards that are only activated through normal summon conditions would not work. Just like the magnet warrior effect yugi used at the beginning wouldn’t work. Those cards effect would have needed to be replaced by their dimensional counterparts. Or their effects would have probably been corrected by the dimensions they were dueling in. It’s like playing the old game yugioh game where you could just fuse monsters by just summoning them in the same monster zone like overlapping them without the use of polymerization. Or lose one of the materials use for the attempted fusion if the monsters wasn’t compatible.That game was more like a Pokémon type matching game where an earth card would body a lightning card with 10000 attack points with a 300 attack point Muka muka without taking damage. Ritual monsters were like divine monsters because their types were neutral could only be destroyed by a stronger monster or a card effect. That game was tricky because I didn’t have the manual neither did it explain how to fusion summon it was a little tricky figuring out the rules and how to use the low level monsters to make better fusion summon. The level cap your monster use at the beginning so you have to grind your duelist level to be able to use card’s with higher levels. There was no extra deck. At There was also no spell and trap card zone I didn’t know how to use the ritual card since basically you only needed the spell card to summon the ritual monster by sacrificing two cards. That’s what this duel reminded me of.
Didn’t aigami not summon his cubic monsters that were not crimson nova with 0 % spirit because they just gained attack from the 0.
yep
So would you be near impossible to beat if you made you deck with mostly/only 0 ATK monsters? Yubel would finally be meta with Relinquished being a close second.
Amazing video explaining dimensions duels in yugioh movies, fantastic job.
This is the first time someone has been able to explain this to me. This makes a lot more sense now
So understood the point about cyber dragon and liked you used an example. I just think it is funny you used machine dup the card you can use on almost every card in the deck
Ps: the one thing never clarified about Dimension duels is how much “spirit” do you get in a turn
I heard somewhere the Pyramid of Light was supposed to be a Millennium Item, meant for Kaiba as a counterpart/rival to the Millennium Puzzle. So wouldn't Aigami's cube be the *9TH* Millennium Item?!?!?
Pyramid of Light would need to be in continuity as well for the Cube to be a 9th instead of an 8th
The PofL movie isn't canon to the original manga like DSOD is, I don't know if it's even canon to the DM anime
@@FranciscoRamirez-nb4uu it's canon to the dub but not the sub.
Hence why the higher LP start... But I like this mechanic...
Should be implemented in the next master rule... Hahaha
That you can play at home. First rule. Different dimension
Man, Dimension Summoning is such an interesting mechanic that it could easily be its own game.
Would be intersting if the villain summoned monsters with less spirit just to show off the new mechanic and its potential
he did
I could totally see Dimension Summon being it's own card like a field spell or something.
👎👎👎
Dimension duel: you could go 0% to 100% atk/def in a duel, if it gets destroyed, you get dmg equal to its atk
Me: laughs in Yubel terror incarnate, cries in ultimate nightmare
But its effec from OG yubel ?
@@hedhehogsilver2996 Oh? you can destroy all monsters? very well then, I can just pull out yubel, sacrifice one of my monsters each turn, and laugh while you cry
I'm looking forward to the Yugi vs igami duel explanation, because igami summons like 6 monsters in a battle phase AND attacks each time, as an O.G. /goat player, I call shenanigans
Now we need speed and action duels
Can you please explain to me in detail what would happen if I chose to dimension summon a Relinquished with 0 spirit.
Same question with 100 spirit. Yes, I know it has 0 attack. That's why I'm asking for details.
Also, what happens if Relinquished absorbs an enemy monster.
Relinquished dimensioned, absorbs normal enemy monster.
Relinquished normal absorbs enemy dimensioned monster.
If you don't know what would happen, that's fine.
I could see decks focused on having monsters with 0 ATK being meta.
Im really enjoying these series man! Great stuff.
Sweet sleeve btw! Cheers from the Netherlands!
Kaiba: alright new rules. You start with 8,000 unless your Joey wheeler
You forgot one specific rule here
You can dimension summon through the battle phase as well. This was performed by both Kaiba(blue eyes alternate white dragon) and agami (his cubic beasts / cubic kings)
Jack Leo and Luna VS aporia is a duel that definitely should have ended just a thought for a video
The thing that really confused or bothered me about Dark Side of Dimensions is why they chose Atem to defeat Aigami instead of Yugi. Yugi is shown to be a more than capable duelist at this point, achieving feats such as defeating the Egyptian Gods. He, or at least Kaiba, should have defeated Diva
Also, the return of Atem sealed the Prana's powers, making all of Diva's efforts basically useless. Which makes for a really dumb resolution of events, despite not being necessarily a Deus Ex Machina in the proper sense.
Please do a Yugioh Trivia video on the Darkness archetype.
"You could try this one at home"
Rule 1: you must go to a space between dimensions
"It could be an alternate form for you to play the game at home."
Oh, cool.
"The duel takes place in an alternative dimension."
Huh.
It's kinda funny. There are 2 different kinds of Dimension Summoning mechanics. The Movie kind & Duel Links kind. =)
Though than again: The Duel Links one is basically the old Duel Kingdom rule of: "You can summon any high level monster without any tribute & without consequences". xD lol
A rule you missed about Dimension Dueling is that you are allowed to Dimension Summon monsters during your Battle Phase (if able to), since in Seto Kaiba’s Duel against Aigami, he attacked with two Krystal Dragons, then summoned Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon, and immediately attacked with that new monster. (Aigami also summoned stuff during his Battle Phase multiple times when he Dimensioned Summoned his Cubic Kings and Cubic Beasts)
I'm calling dibs right now, I'm gonna create some kind of Dimension Duels progression series. I'll credit this vid for the rules.
If you use Spirit Energy to determine the stats of the monster, and Spirit Energy uses a percentage scale; doesn't that mean if you choose 56%, for example, its ATK/DEF could be a wierd value, like 1670.
How do you think this would apply to Extra Deck Mechanics? Let's use your example and say you dimension summon Cyber Dragon with zero attack then use Machine Duplication to summon 2 more copies. Then you overlay the dimension summoned Cyber Dragon with one of the other Cyber Dragons to summon to summon Cyber Dragon Nova. Does this mean that Nova is treated as being dimension summoned since it used the Dimension summoned Cyber Dragon to summon Nova?
Hmmm anime ≠ manga
Kaiba screwed
DIDN'T mention kaibas duel disk. THAT'S why he was able to summon obelisk
I love the background music for your videos. Is their some where i can listen to them on their own?
I mean, the way to integrate this “mechanic” into the real game would be to make a Field Spell for Cubics
Cubic Dimension
Field Spell
When this card is activated: You can reveal 1 “Cubic” monster from your hand; take 1 “Cubic” card from your Deck, except “Cubic Dimension”, and either add it to your hand or send it to the GY. The turn player can Special Summon monsters using their own procedure during the Battle Phase. If a monster(s) is destroyed by battle or by card effect, its controller takes damage equal to the ATK or DEF that monster(s) had on the field in the battle positions they were in. You can only activate 1 “Cubic Dimension” per turn.
Protagonists: I dimension summon yami yugi
Opponent:NANIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Yugioh dark side of dimension one best Yugioh movie
That last rule pointed out be like "Ok, pretty standard stuff. Right? Oh yeah, you can also access space and time to deploy multiverse Tokyo Drifting shenanigans. Welp! That about wraps up this video!"
Me who wants to know more about how this children's card game can summon spirits of the dead: "Wait! What was that last bit?"
Yo the BGM is absolutely sick!! What songs are these? I'd like to listen to them separately
Well, yugi actually didnt summon atem, as he said to kaiba, he cannot bring the pharaoh back, the pharaoh has to choose for himself, as for obelisk, since that tomb was the place where atem has departed, it makes sense that he could dimension summon obelisk
I watched Dark Side of Dimensions twice and still didn’t realize the rules.
Neat analysis video! Thanks for uploading!
I liked how Duel Links handled it by just making it so you can normal summon without tribute during the few events it happened. I ended up using Blue-Eyes or a level 9 deck for these events. Not the most exciting duel type that they reimagined for the game, but I appreciate that they try and incorporate them as we only got anime 5ds Turbo Duels in the WC games, tag duels died out after Tag Force Special and it was the first time we got an official way to play Action Duels. I’m hoping that the Speed Duel sets continue to go strong and that they print skill cards to help reflect these dueling styles, maybe even printing Action Cards as proper Action Cards and not just edited for the normal game if it ever gets to Arc V.
Also hoping that Dimension Duels come back for an event. There are still some DSOD characters to include and it is taking way too long to give us Strings for DM.
Told ya my thought was same 👍
I hope he eventually covers the true rules of roller duels from Zexal, those were really cool
Count me having 2 cents, here's my thought if dimension summon is on real life duel is based on the rules in the movie, but a twist that if the dimen-summoned monster destroyed, they placed in extra deck
I could see the mechanic is co-linked with pendulum. I mean, both are heavy weighted on dimension
I would love to see another Yu-Gi-Oh Movie
