(KDE) today is pleased to announce the launch of the Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME (TCG) Champion Pack 8 from March 20th, 2009. Champion Pack 8 is being provided to hobby stores for Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG prize support, and features tournament-tested cards, previously hard-to-earn promotional cards and a never-before-seen card to round out the set. “Official KDE tournament stores allow Duelists to perfect their skills, build decks and get Champion Pack 8. The latest Champion Pack includes the new Ultra Rare ‘Gravity Behemoth,’ a 2300 ATK Beast-Type Effect Monster that has the power to destroy Field Spell Cards at will,” commented Yumi Hoashi, Vice President of Card Business for Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. “We have also brought back ‘Prohibition,’ a Super Rare card not seen since it was included in Pharaoh’s Servant in 2002. Champion Pack 8 also includes ‘Magician's Valkyria,’ a card only released in Shonen Jump magazine.” The four Super Rare foil cards include ‘Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner,’ bringing Lightsworn players one step closer to having an all-foil deck. Duelists can converge on their local hobby stores from March 20th, 2009 to find the only place to get Champion Packs! KDE is also currently developing its own ranking system which will be called COSSY [Konami Card Game Official Tournament Support System] and will launch in April. “We are working on a plan that will link up Konami's COSSY rankings worldwide,” added KDE’s Hoashi. Hobby stores interested in hosting Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME events or tournaments should contact KDE customer support at 310-220-8630 or [email protected].

Thomas★Zero Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Gravity Behemoth is wishing it was as good as shi.t. Edited Edited again You lot may think the cards bad but it does have some use as it can be effective in destroying earthbound gods by destroying the feild spell = 2 birds with 1 stone.

werewolfjedi Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 and how else are you going to kill off multiple copies of village as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited Edited again You lot may think the cards bad but it does have some use as it can be effective in destroying earthbound gods by destroying the feild spell = 2 birds with 1 stone. Except a lot of Earthbound gods have effects when they're destroyed so it's more like killing two bird with the cost of your entire field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 "Ancient Fairy Dragon" runs over "Gravity Behemoth" *sound of dragon eating behemoth* ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Star Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Super Rare Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner and Super Rare Mind Crush make this pack worth buying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azmodius Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 If Village Decks get popular, than you might as well side in a Gravity Behemoth. Still, sheet card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ P O L A R I S ~ Posted March 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 I found the rating system and Konami-hosted tournament part much more intriguing than Gravity Behemoth or CP08 as a whole for that matter lol. There'll be Tournaments in North America again, I thought that would've been good news to yall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
