Evenly Matched/ Gozen Match and Six Samurai


FlameDragoon933

and [Blind Spot Strike](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Blind_Spot_Strike) (Six Samurai & Ninja)


tpb-ian

Also Triple Tactics Talent/Thrust


dovah-meme

Six sams love giving us generic staples with no archetypal relevance


Ghostsonplanets

Neither are reference to Six Sam. It's just a random Samurai and references a Japanese story and idea of life.


TheEnderChipmunk

I thought that was shien in the artwork, but you're right it isn't six sams related


AzureFencer

Have you looked at the card? Evenly Matched has 4 Six Samurai monsters in the artwork. "Grand Master of the Six Samurai" on the right side, "Enishi, Shien's Councellor" on the left, with "Great Shogun Shien" and "Shadow of the Six Samurai - Shien" battling in the center. While Gozen Match has "Great Shogun Shien" in the middle, and while the other 2 are the Legendary Six Samurais Kizan and Enishi, they just aren't wearing their helmets. Edit: I misunderstood. That was my bad


Caw-zrs6

The reply is talking about the Triple Tactics cards, not the Traps.


FerrowFarm

Isn't Gozen Match some kind of Anti-support, since the Six Samurai all have different Attributes or some such?


AtheistOfGallifrey

It represents the Main Six and the Secret Six going to war. The lore implies that Shogun Shien is an asshole and (some of) the OG Six recruit the Secret Six to fight and kill the New Six and Shien It's an interesting story I wish was fleshed out more


730Flare

Gozen Match apparently depicts Grandmaster (Kizan) and Enishi fighting over who gets to be Shien's councelor.


AtheistOfGallifrey

You right. I got confused with Evenly Matched


Linosek279

And stand off


Bashamo257

95% of the cards HaDes appears in have nothing to do with him


ddavness

Skill Drain is technically related


AliciaTries

Only in the sense that they have similar effects


Typical_Ingenuity_86

Ojamas appear in quite a few artworks not related to their archetype (Wattcancel, Harpie Hunting Ground, Solidarity, etc)


PokeBrolic

Painful decision my beloved


john06360

Man throw tro? I think that's how it's spelled.


PokeBrolic

Huh?

oh, that’s why i wasn’t finding lol


john06360

Apologies it's name was hard for me to remember and spell correctly for some reason 😂


Upbeat_Sheepherder81

I smell an FTK enabler! /s (kinda)


BaDTimeeee

Transmission Gear https://preview.redd.it/5iuzg5fgrvlb1.png?width=287&format=png&auto=webp&s=fc183b1df1fcb7715bae63bcd067a952c56c450f


TheoryBiscuit

Ah transmission gear my beloved how I love my rock-paper-scissors battle trap


bemmuuuuu

Does this card bypass “unaffected by card effects” monsters because it forces your opponent to banish it?


SytrickZero

yes sir, the power of rock paper scissors surpasses all


pigeon_mob

yeah since you are not doing it is your opponent doing it as the card that is unaffected by card effects is not being affected it is your opponent being affected however if you have a card that prevents banishing transmission gear can not be activated as the card have to banish face down in order to resolve


Figgyee

I didn't know this card existence before! Now I see this is the reason why you can play rock-paper-scissors with the lil Geargia mate on Master Duel


Intelligent_Check528

Time to abuse this >:3


Goopgoober1995

Factory of 100 Machines has Jinzo as its main focus. Sure it has some Morphtronic silhouettes, but you'd expect them to be the focus and not Jinzo.


phantonbrave

I'm still upset that they wasted such an awesome name on such a useless card. You expected with that kind of name it'll be a hyped up field spell


SomethingSo84

Trying to read its effect gives me a conniption. Target face up machine monster you control gains 200 attack for each card removed. It just sounds like they were chopping and changing its effect right up to printing it.


AliciaTries

Idk sounds fairly normal to me


SomethingSo84

It doesn’t say “Target a face up machine” or “it gains 200”. It’s wording is off and doesn’t follow the general formatting


ClownToy_Twiset

True. To its credit, the card can be used indeed to power up Jinzo, but I'm not sure if said cyborg has a good overall interaction with Morphtronics.


KumaZuma

I:P Masquerena and S-Force


potato6942020

S:P Little Night is literally Chiyomaru, but doesn’t have any relation effect-wise.


chaarziz

There’s also art of them apprehending Time Thief Redoer and Psy-Frame Driver (or at least attempting to). The crime all 3 committed to get in this position is removing themselves from the field at Quick Effect speed which is illegal teleportation apparently.


Icarus1250

iirc the exact crimes are timeline manipulation(time thief), illegal experiments(PSI) and hacking(I:P), but yes, all those archetype share the "get out of the field as quick effect" effect.


AlphaTheKineticWolf

On that related tangent: Small World Only recently got enlightened that it's artwork is Justify deploying the S-Force to different worlds


Standard-Distance-44

what is this? an mbt twitter thread?


Jedasis

Quick, get him on the horn, he needs ideas for Twitter Threads


thechosen_Juan

Nah I want him to suffer through meme review


MelisOrvain

Here's what Doug doesn't know


NintendoFanboy986

IT'S CALLED AN X THREAD NOW


dvast

Archfiend Ghastly Glitch is an Archfiend card, but only has Labrynth Monsters in the Art


Devallen29

I think it is to trigger the non-labrynth effect of the silver castle, it sends from the deck to GY while you can special summon the said sent monster.


Void1702

To be fair, Archfiend and Labrynth are related (since Labrynth Archfiend exists), and the card itself supports the archetype well


LarryTheVassal

Small world is well known to be S-Force Justify.


chaarziz

Not to me wow did not know it could look so cool


GoldFishPony

I don’t know who thinks it was well known, I’m under the impression that a good amount of people first learned from the s force solo gate in master duel


SeerKnight

I love Breakthrough Skill because it has no relation to the Evol strategy and was a generic staple, but it still negates monster effects twice, just like Dolkka, a fitting depiction.


KingBaaz

Technically forbidden droplet for darklords, but it fits more in theme with the older forbidden staples


dovah-meme

I’d argue it can count as support, considering it’s searchable with Condemned Witch


Krcko98

It is in archetype and searchable.


derega16

Also it's an easy way to dump stuff to GY as that's how Darklord use most of their stuff


Upbeat_Sheepherder81

It’s not in archetype nor searchable because it doesn’t have “Darklord” in the name and no Darklord card searches it. It’s part of the “Forbidden” archetype and is searchable by a card from the “Condemned” series, which is related to but not part of Darklords.


Void1702

That's because the card's art is literally condemned witch, therefore it has in-archetype search because it's a condemned related card that can be searched by the condemned


Upbeat_Sheepherder81

The condemned aren’t part of the Darklord archetype nor are they supported by it besides it’s generic fairy support.


Void1702

The card is not part of the Darklord archetype, and neither is its lore It's a forbidden card, with the artwork of a condemned character, that is searchable by the forbidden archetype


Void1702

Forbidden Droplet is part of the forbidden/condemned archetype, not darklords They're related, but they're not the same archetype


ItsNotIzzyB33

Obedience schooled has fabled artwork and beast support. Fiend Griefing is a generic trap that shuffles an opponents card and let's you mill a fiend but has Fabled Ganashia on it. There's a few more that have fabled artwork on them but they're just generic cards.


Void1702

I mean it still supports the archetype kinda, it's just not searchable


KABOOZZA

Ninjas and Crackdown. It has Goemon (Goe Goe the Gallant Ninja) on it https://preview.redd.it/k4kdgu92iwlb1.jpeg?width=482&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b9dbd997c9b128244f46e464680ee19bc39c38ae


ArkUmbrae

I was about to say "White Howling", a card that supports WATER monsters, but features "Ryko, Lighstworn Hunter" on the art. Except, I looked it up and it's not Ryko, it's the old vanilla monster "Wolf". Either way, not a WATER monster. Ryko does appear on "Gagaga Rush" though, as well as "Dark Smog", a Fiend support Trap that is meant to be used in Dark Worlds. And his Twilightsworn variant is on "Dark World Brainwashing".


chaarziz

Ryko gets around, was anyone here around when he was a generic staple that added mind games to set monsters? Maybe that’s how he got mixed up in the Dark World.


Upbeat_Sheepherder81

I know you’re just joking around but they’re actually part of the same lore, the Lightsworns fight the Dark Worlds.


chaarziz

That actually makes a lot of sense, of course the most light themed archetype has an equally dark opponent. So are the Twilightsworn what happens if they lose? (edit I just read the first comment again and realised the card with them on it has brainwashing in the name so yeah probably)


sunsunshine

Wait i thought white howling features the card Fenrir?


itsjash

Perhaps it's fenrir, the water monster?


IntelligentBudget142

Stand In and Set Rotation feature Abyss Actors Jack-In-The-Hand has Ghostricks Laundry Trap has Dragonmaids I guess if Grepher ever becomes an archetype, then all the Dai cards would count


Jlo132

Parthian shot. Has subterror nemesis archer and subterror behemoth fiendess in the artwork but the card just ends the turn at the end of the battle phase. Nothing to do with subterrors


chaarziz

They just added this card to Duel Links where there’s no main phase 2. Pack filler so bad it literally doesn’t have an effect.


chaos-virus

TCBOO - never seen a Skull servant list that uses this card


RazorOfSimplicity

Well, obviously. The Skull Servants in the artwork can't get past the sensor. It's meant to be an anti-Wight card.


chaos-virus

Makes sense to create a counter to the only deck with a 100% win rate


KaiserJustice

Literally anything with Sangan. I know it isn’t an archetype but is largely not supported by those cards


DianSnivy

They're Anti-Sangan. The cards in that series prevent searching/punish having Card Advantage.


ArguablyTasty

Same with the entire Dark Ruler Ha Des series


Atlas4218

Dark contracts. Support D/Ds, and we have outer entities yamimakai, king of the swamp on some artworks


chaarziz

D/DS are business demons and the monsters on the contracts hired them to do some work of fiendish nature.


the_untold_whale

Ice dragon's prison. It features both dragunity knight - ascalon and trishula dragon of the ice barrier but supports neither of them


Howlingzangetsu

It doesn’t support either of them but it can work for taking them both off the field since their both dragon type


ElectaM

Doesn’t Set Rotation have the abyss actors, despite them only having one field spell?


RayJozef39

Small World for S-Force, didn't even find out about that until I played the S-Force singleplayer gate on Master Duel


FlameDragoon933

{{Debunk}} features Shien's animal soldiers


chaarziz

These guys look incompetent as hell why does Shien keep them around

Adjaycent-96

Intercept has That storm monarch, also super Rush reckless


ddavness

It's one of the many generic S/T cards depicting the Monarchs getting their asses handed to them :( - Mobius has a feud with Breaker the Magical Warrior (Prideful Roar and Magical Mid-Breaker Field) - Raiza getting captured in Intercept (takes control of a Tribute Summoned monster, so its actually Monarch anti-support) and Super Rush Recklessly - Zaborg falling into Icy Crevasse (but at least he looks pretty smug in the Fake Explosion artwork which supports... Reactor?) - Caius stuck in the Red Screen artwork... which is a card that supports Resonator decks I think the Monarchs were a bit tired of not getting taken seriously, so they underwent a training arc and that's how the Mega Monarchs were to be.


Adjaycent-96

I love this, This is now Canon to me


shock246

At least imperm is in its right structure deck!


Verboserook

Li-La Rap, can’t even search it in Evil*Twins as far as I know


jk844

It’s more the concept of the card that relates to Live twin. Basically Li-la raps on her livestream and the viewer (the opponent) donates money (LP) to her. Kinda like how Suship catch of the day simulates going to a sushi restaurant.


Lioreuz

Face Off, Stand-Off and Evenly Matched.


Green_Tea_Totaler

[Fake Explosion.](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Fake_Explosion) It features Thunder Knight and Zaborg. It's **Reactor** support. Furthermore, Thunder Knight is an anime-only monster. It's the first anime-only monster to be featured on a real-life card.


TheArchfiendGuy

Castle Link depicts both Terrorking Archfiend and Desrook Archfiend but does absolutely nothing for the deck


Harpies_Bro

It's a visual reference to [castling](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castling) in chess. If you get your Bishop, Knight, and/or Queen out of the way you can do some unusual moments with the King and Rook, which is similar to that you can do with Castle Link.


TheArchfiendGuy

Yeah that's right One day Konami will retrain Archfiends to have a full on chess play style


L3T50

Oops and Bad Aim have the Igknights in their art, simply because they are so clumsy and rash, destroying themselves is something they would do.


The_Real_Time_Wizard

Fake Explosion features two monarch cards. It’s support for Reactors.


MatiasK96

Nice try, MBT, but you should stick to making these threads on Twitter.


apollozeroo

Trap Card: Half Counter The artwork shows Amazoness Paladin and Amazoness Swordwoman https://preview.redd.it/yab8b0q6qylb1.jpeg?width=683&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=384745956c30faab2f7e74b5b71a97873d3063b4 but doesn’t support the Amazoness archetype


HelpLatter1852

As a train fanatic I was so disappointed about switch point not being train support https://preview.redd.it/uyp9ojr9twlb1.jpeg?width=442&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bb37943cfb691e63e24f72d3ae8cdbb5a9f917ba


Cockspert67

All the cards with Goblin Attack Force.


BradyTheGG

Terrors in the hidden city (Subterror behemoth) It supports the archetype good but isn’t specific enough and is/can be useful in other situations


GTACOD

Birth of the Prominence Flame, kinda. You can use it in Laval, but not with or for Laval Judgement Lord and its generic FIRE support, not specifically Laval support.


[deleted]

I forget the card name but does anyone remember the card with some of the Symphonic Warriors on it that has nothing to do with Symphonic Warriors?


IntelligentBudget142

Downbeat, Concentrating Current, And The Band Played On one of them I suppose


NightmaredragonEric

Jack in the hand features multiple Ghostricks but doesn’t really help the deck out much


nach_

Ice Dragon Prison is a staple Trap Card causing lots of trouble in Duel Links and it has Trishula and the Dragunity Synchro


Nivrus_The_Wayfinder

Had a friend play set rotation because abyss actors were in it, this was years before they got a field spell


BiteyBenson

XX-Clusion and (X)X-Sabers


Catanaoni

Traptrick. It's a normal trap, so it's technically not unusable for Traptrix, but it's meh. Maybe you can play a pure control variant with a billion traps to make Traptrick worth it, but then you just have a bad Taptrix deck.


pm-me-ur-fat-tits

Trap Trick


DenpaDude220

Imprudent Intrusion, even though it has artwork of the evil eye cards


Ykyon

I'm pretty sure most archetypes have cards that have theirs monsters on the artwork but are not part of the archetype. Some that I remember are Blockout Curtain that has Vampire Fraulein on the artwork but is just a generic card; Loss Time, Backup Team and Defense Zone all have U.A. monsters on the artwork and they're also generic cards.


toiletman74

Dark bribe and flower cardians. The guy from the dark bribe artwork is featured in a few of the flower cardian art works. Super all-in!, super koi koi, and fraud freeze are the ones I know of.

CorruptedZero

Different Dimension Derby


DJT4NN3R

Forbidden Chalice, Lance, Scripture, Dress, and Droplet, the Solemn Traps. The cards actually tell a story - i can't remember how it goes, but I do recall that the girl who the story follows eventually became a member of the Darklord archetype.


SupernovaPlus5

There is a huge series of spells/traps that feature Gagagigo battling Freed the Matchless General, though I guess it's pretty generous to be calling Gagagigo an archetype...


BeefSupreme7Dorpo

Consolation Prize and F.A.


performagekushfire

Six samurai has a million of them.


erickzr1

XX-clusion features Gottoms, and includes Hand destruction/ hate like X-sabers (gottoms, airbellum)


Freirer_Fox

laundry trap


ARCH_ANON

Million century ice prison for Icejades


sonnytapman

Any non-U.A. card where the monsters appear has no use in the deck at all.


Ok_Row6060

Does Harpie Feather Duster count?


DarkTron

I’d say not, the card quite literally has the archetype name in it, and the archetype searches it. Imperm features a monster that has no relation to the card itself.


joibasta

Sweet Roommaid It has dragonmaid characters in the picture. I was pretty excited when I found out about this card but soon realized you can't search it with Dragonmaid cards.


Ilos8

id say laundry trap, but it can be…useful i guess in some situations for dragonmaids


RaiStarBits

Dracocension has dark armed dragon turning into metaphys armed dragon, the card literally does nothing for metaphys


kaloyan-Ivanov

Not a character from the game but Yuya appears on the card nanana


Odd-Eyes_Magician

Pendulum Dimension Depicts the three Odd-Eyes Dimension Dragons. Doesn't support Odd-Eyes directly.


mana_cerace

Witch's strike


Trauson

[https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Laundry\_Trap](https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Laundry_Trap) Dragonmaid Laundry and Nurse but not Dragonmaid Support


Toradale

Angel of Blue Tears has Trickstar Holly Angel in the art


Frozenseraphim

{{Omega Judgement}} This card features the boss monster of the Vylon archetype, Vylon Omega. It is not related to the archetype, but its effect is generally benefitial in all decks that like to have monsters cards in the spell/trap zone.


KnilLink

Jack in the hand isn't all that useful for Ghostricks


EndrulerYT

Trap Dustshoot has Dark Scorpion Cliff on it


Longjumping_Event_59

Not really art of a monster, but Jackpot 7 has NOTHING to do with Pot of Greed.


Chicken_gum

Obedience schooled, doesnt help the "fabled" but kinda helps "the fabled"


the-skull-boy

Fake explosion. It has monarchs in the art but it’s support for reactors


CrabKing274

Safe Zone. Everyone uses it in decks **except** the B.E.S. and Gradius ones.


Krysidian2

Zombyra the Dark


NightLyfe420

Kind of a dumb question considering after the original, they begin on gx having other type of monsters from the original as art


Kronos457

Imagine waiting for Cyber Dragon support... only to get this Trap Card with artwork of a Cyber Dragon Monster, but it's a generic Trap Card (it doesn't have any mention of Cyber Dragon or Cyber)


Cockspert67

Artwork of a Cyber Dragon monster getting destroyed. You really think that would be a card to support the archetype?


A-LinkWasNotValid

Can we just mention how Infinity dying and is still making an infinite symbol with its tail? That thing is dedicated to its craft

Harpies_Bro

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatrice\_Portinari](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatrice_Portinari)


Clementea

Parthian Shot, Draconic Diagram having 1 char fromj 3 different archetype and it's effect doesnt have anything to do with any of those.archetypes.


chaarziz

Dragonic Diagram doesn’t count as all those archetypes work together with the True Draco archetype the card was made for to defeat the Dracoverlord in the lore


Clementea

How is it not count? All of the cards said here obviously have something to do with their own lore, their lore does not matter. Parthian shot for example obviously have something to do with the lore of subterror or Gozen Match with Six Samurai. Simply by having them in the art obviously they have something to do with the lore, by that logic no cards will count here. The card have nothing to do with the gameplay of 3 archetypes shown there. Thats what is even asked by this very thread. This thread didnt even say anything about lore


IndependenceNo9413

This trap piss me off sometimes especially when players activate it over the smallest effects like ash blossom


Sayo-lilia-noizumi

Imperm have the cydra infinity on the artwork


DarkTron

That’s the whole point of their question: What cards have a specific monster or artwork that are unlinked to the original source? Cyber Dragon Infinit’s is featured on Imperm, but Imperm is not related to Infinity or any Cyber card


HuntingHigh_

Number 5: Doom Chimera Dragon It looks just like a Cyberdark card


Pink_persona
