Come Hurt Each Other

Saiō: "?"

Couldn't Special Summon monsters.

What kind of bullshit was this?

Wasn't this screwing himself over?

He immediately realized it. No wonder his opponent had so generously given him this thing.

He suddenly suspected that this guy might have known about The Chariot's upright position effect all along and had deliberately summoned this thing just to give it to him.

For Decks that relied heavily on Special Summoning to build their plays, shoving this thing onto the opponent's Field was practically a death sentence. Especially now that they had entered the Synchro Era, when Main Decks were generally filled with low-ATK, low-Level Small Monsters, while all the ace monsters were in the Extra Deck.

Then the opponent gave you this thing, and suddenly the strongest monster your entire Deck could summon had no more than 1000 attack points. You could just die on the spot.

There was even an additional line of text on this thing.

"This card cannot be Tributed except for the Tribute Summon of 'Slifer the Sky Dragon,' 'Obelisk the Tormentor,' or 'The Winged Dragon of Ra.'"

Wow, it directly listed the names of the Three Phantom Gods. So cool, so damn imposing.

My ass!

Saiō laughed in anger.

In other words, this idiotic thing stood On the Field like a pile of stinking crap, completely sealing off his Special Summons, and he could not even Tribute it. Because its card said that the noble Disciple of the Sun God would only accept being offered as a Tribute to gods; no second-rate trash was allowed to touch it.

"Tch, I lock you down, and you lock me down too? Fine. Fine, fine."

Saiō shouted.

"Then let's see who gets the last laugh! The Battle Phase is still ongoing!

Arcana Force IV—The Emperor, Direct Attack!"
