This is how dragons will look at you while there's a face-up Field Spell on the field.

Okay here’s a fun bit of off-the-cuff, unhinged rambling:

So I’ve been playing some Yugioh Duel Links lately, specifically the current Arc-V event focused on Rin and Lulu. And I noticed that Rin has some rather interesting dialogue when summoning both Clear Wing and Crystal Wing Synchro Dragons (for context, the ace-monsters of one of Arc-V’s Shonen-Protags; Yugo. For whom Rin is the plot-designated love-interest).

Stuff like; "I know you'd rather fight by my side than with Yugo!” for Clear Wing Dragon and “A monster this awesome is wasted on Yugo!” for Crystal Wing Dragon.

And not only is it rather interesting and frankly fun for a designated-shonen love-interest to be making comments like that, but she’s also not exactly wrong either…

For one, mechanically-speaking the Clear Wing dragons slot EXTREMELY well into Rin’s Windwitch archetype, which is very effective at getting out Level 7/8+ WIND Synchro monsters. To the point of even being a bit better at it, or at least a bit more reliable/consistent, than Yugo’s own Speedroid archetype.

And aesthetics-wise, the Windwitch’s whole motif is that of Icy Wind. And well…

Clear Wing Dragon, Crystal Wing Dragon, Crystal Clear Wing Dragon…

Sounds like something what would go quite well with an ICE motif, no? Certainly just as well as the ‘speed’ motif of Yugo’s Speedroids. Heck, those crystals on Crystal Wing Dragon look quite a bit like ice crystals, don’t they?

So! With all that in mind, combined with both the fact that Rin frankly deserves another badass ace monster after all the disrespectful shit her series put her through AND how the idea of a designated shonen love-interest making off with the protag’s best cards and possibly even making better use of them is frankly EXTREMELY FUN…

Yeah as far as I’m concerned, Clear Wing Synchro Dragon is Rin’s monster now whenever I play Duel Links and will have a permanent place in all of her decks.

And heck, while we’re at it let’s take this idea of Rin using Clear Wing Dragon a bit further and envision the story potential of this.

Consider if you will: An alternate version of Arc-V where Yugo is the one who gets damsel’ed and/or fridged, and RIN comes into possession of Clear Wing Synchro Dragon. To the point of even eventually becoming/revealed to be that dragon’s TRUE partner.

Sounds ludicrous, right? After all, Rin is one of the fragments/incarnations of Ray Akaba, who is basically the nemesis of the four Dimension Dragons.

But consider also: This would have made for a way more INTERESTING STORY for Arc-V!

Imagine a version of Arc-V where multiple character, mostly villains/antagonists, spend the show hyping up how the four Yu-boys are ‘destined’ to become one and recreate the terrible Zarc, and that the four bracelet girls are likewise ‘destined’ to become one and recreate Ray in order to stop him.

Only for multiple characters and events across the show to subvert and DEFY this so-called ‘destiny’.

Like say, some of both the ‘Zarc’ and ‘Ray’ fragments rejecting merging together on such a fundamental level that they CANNOT merge like what we saw in the anime?

Or one of the Yu-boys learning a summoning method that perhaps Zarc himself originally rejected? As in, RITUAL summoning.

Or one of Ray’s incarnations defying all conventional expectations and actually bonding with one of Zarc’s Dimensional Dragons, to the point of said dragon rejecting Zarc himself.

I don’t know about you, but that sounds WAY more interesting.

Also, because Clear Wing Dragon seems to be a girl dragon, I am definitely shipping her with Rin for the sake of underappreciated Yugioh yuri*. Heck, it’s a fragment of Ray in love with one of Zarc’s dragons so it’s basically an ‘enemies-to-lovers via reincarnation’ thing XD

Power Tool Braver Dragon

Where to even begin here? Power Tool Dragon is cool enough on its own, but we've gone a step further here, because funnily enough, this actually isn't OG PTD. It's actually our good pal Life Stream Dragon wearing a sick suit of armor that is modeled off of PTD, only it's been upgraded in several areas. Most notable and striking is the weapon upgrades; PTD's original right arm has been turned into a powerful hydraulic clamp, while its left arm has a massive and deadly looking version of the drill from Double Tool C&D. Also, if you look closely, its tail shovel has been turned into what is likely a pair of pliers (or maybe a flamethrower? It's hard to tell where the flames are coming from lol). It's interesting to compare this card to PTD, as PTD actually has very little red in its design, but this card went a little wild with red accents. They do fit very nicely with the swirling flames at its feet, though. Another interesting note is that the two cards share the same background, only rotated a bit. Final point: the prismatic shine effects off the clamps teeth, the drill, and the background add nice little bursts of color contrast.

Rating: 10/10, The bravest dragon of them all :)

Oh I REALLY like the detail of Yugos bike still running on momentum, makes me wonder how thats utilized/controlled in a presumably sans yusei 5ds

BIG DELIRIOUS SMILE.

WELL YOU CAME TO THE RIGHT PLACE ANON: HOUSE OF THE DOG DEEPLY AND MORBIDLY OBSESSED WITH ARC-V'S SYNCHRO DIMENSION'S WORLDBUILDING the second they hopped over to New Domino im already locked and loaded ready to overanalyze every scrap they hand me.

like i cant stress Enough that the Synchro dimension has architecture invoking the The Fucking Future Floating Buildings. The Hyper Tech Evolved Society (it has produced violent and horrifying classism the likes of which we could barely fathom before.) They Still Have Momentum It's Powering the Damn Bikes

Synchro Dimension's lore implications make me fuckin BANANAS!! ONE MUST WONDER IF PERHAPS MOMENTUM IS BEING UTILIZED A BIT GREEDILY OR HAPHAZARDLY IN THIS WORLD!! GOOD THING THEY GOT EXTRA-DIMENSIONAL GENEVA CONVENTION VIOLATIONS TO WORRY ABOUT CUZ OTHERWISE THEYLL PROBABLY BE HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT THEIR OWN DUELING-ADJACENT CATASTROPHE(S) PRETTY SOON!!!!!!

[waywardstation]

So when I played Violet a while ago and I took Miraidon to climb the mountain that surrounds the great crater I came across some Garchomp floating around near the top.

It looks ridiculous and funny in the game when they just hover in place and then turn towards you to pursue you… I just saw a video of that on X and it reminded me of Jörmun and “I wont leave you behind“ and… is Jörmun due to her size able to fly???

If so then she got a hell lot more dangerous in my book. Maybe she isn’t due to being battle-worn but she’s still fast!

OHH OH OH I LOVE THIS QUESTION THANK YOU NOW I GET TO GUSH ABOUT IT

This is one aspect of her that I’ve been fighting over with myself for a long time, because depending on whether she can fly or not will split her up into two different designs and behavior/fighting dynamics.

Jörmun is an Alpha. In IWLYB I really emphasize how massive she is and how while not literal, her build gives the appearance that her musculature has outgrown her skeleton. She is HEAVY.

I’ve had two thoughts on this — either she has become overgrown to the point she can no longer fly (and can only glide short distances) or I give her a much bigger wingspan to accommodate for her body. (Because in my head I do imaging that realistically those flaps on those arms help them fly)

Option A would sort of keep the same Garchomp build, but Option B would turn Jörmun into a wyvern/pterosaur with the sheer size of the wings I’d need to give her. An actual dragon guarding the mountain.

It would be SO SO FUN to write (AND DRAW) her like this big beast with huge wings to give her flight — because you’re right, I think that would make her so much scarier. You could not escape her on land or in the sky.

But, as of now, I’ve been writing her as option A — she isn’t capable of flight due to growing out of those wings, but she can manage to glide short distances. Because it has been fun writing her as this hulking monster that is almost too heavy for her own legs, and crashes back down to the ground with the struggle to fly.

Also, it has given me a reason to keep her secluded up in the mountains; if Jörmun could fly, she would be an absolute terror to the Pearl Clan settlement (and she is at some point in HFBE), but if I strip her of flight, she will probably opt to stay higher up in the mountains — it would be easy for her to glide down, but she would not want to climb all the way back up that mountain.

TLDR, I go back and forth on this, but right now I have that she can only glide short distances, as she cannot fly.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS ASK ANON!!! :)

Duel Runners run on energy generated by their (assumedly expensive) Momentum Cores, so their power supply is as infinite as how much you can move it. Can't say the same about real life though.

Pov you are now a Swadloon

am i doing this right?

[f1gure-skater]

Super niche, but I just saw someone comment on something saying that they can't comprehend the fact that figure skating qualifies as a sport and as a figure it kind of just ticked me off? Of course the skaters seen on TV are really good at it and they make it look easy but the amount of work that goes into training that isn't seen in competition isn't as pretty as what's shown on the screen. There's a lot of off ice training for cardio and strength in the form of fitness classes and there's also the on ice cardio training which is running program parts in addition to the full run through. AND THEN, so it looks good, there's ballet, and on ice movement, and theatre on ice etc. etc. etc. which makes you THINK it's more of an artform but I've gotten so many bruises from falling that I don't think I can call it art, more like pain. Honestly figure skating is a dangerous sport, there's so many risks that can lead to injuries, I've a couple of friends who have gotten concussed from bad falls and I call myself very fortunate for not having gotten any bad injuries that cause me to take time off (knock on wood) but all of the gross stuff that happens out of the shiny costumes is what gives figure skating the right to call itself a sport.

[goldensunset]

you had to go through trials and ordeals and stuff to prove the virtue of your heart in order to earn the respect of the legendary dragons. i befriended em because i showed up with their favorite flavor of doritos. we are not the same

[shitpostingkats]

Arc-V is really out here saying synchro summoning is for the himbos and I honestly can't argue with that.

[ashleighneville]

Turns out knowing you're overreacting and being mentally ill about something does not in fact make you less likely to overreact and be mentally ill about it.

[anthurak]

Help, my once-small-and-manageable 'What if Yugo got kidnapped instead and Rin got Clear Wing Synchro Dragon?' AU idea is rapidly snowballing into a whole-ass ARC-V rewrite with a growing list of goals/ideas/concepts including but not limited to:

Revamping the not-Clear-Wing Dimension Dragons with actually distinct elemental identities (I feel like Odd-Eyes should really be a FIRE monster...)

Making the Dimension Dragons actual CHARACTERS with arcs like Clear Wing and Rin having a whole 'past-life enemies to present-life lovers' story and Dark Rebellion turning out to be an older-brother figure to Yuto and becoming besties with fellow protective-big-brother Shun.

Revamping the entire collective arcs of the Yu-boys and Bracelet girls into a narrative that actually REJECTS the idea that they should be merged back together. Like a big part of Yuya's and Yuto's characters ends up being them fighting against merging.

NONE of the Bracelet Girls getting mind-controlled and/or fridged. And also playing key roles in the final battle dueling against Zarc.

A collective arc for the Dimension Dragons that ultimately has them rejecting Zarc and rebelling against him in various ways and siding with the Bracelet Girls and Yu-boys (that aren't Yuri).

My previously explored 'Alexis Rhodes gets a full Cyber Angel/Herald/Drytron deck and is the biggest fucking badass in the whole show' idea, which now also includes her teaching Yuya Ritual Summoning which ends up becoming one of the big secret weapons against Zarc.

Aki and Sherry are also present in the Synchro Dimension, are dating/married and utterly loaded with Revolutionary Girl Utena references.

Everything/everyone just being a whole lot gayer in general. I realize that is hardly a revolutionary take in this fandom, but I felt it was still worth mentioning XD
