marisa Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 This happened to my friend a few days ago.He played against someone in the Yugi society in my town.He was playing Fairy deck, and challenged a machine deck. His field was a faced up Hysteric Fairy, and a Sakuretsu.His opponent's was a faced up Drilloid. It is on his opponent turn. His opponent declared an attack against Hysteric, then asks "do you respond my attack?". Since the only card on his field was that Drilloid, and a little confused about the meaning of his question earlier, abruptly he decided not to respond with his Sakuretsu.At the damage step, his opponent activates Rush Recklessly from his hand. My friend tried to activate his Sakuretsu, but the others said it is too late, you can't activate Sakuretsu at the damage step.After a long thinking, and rechecking the old basic rule at UDE website, I found a statement which said "you can't activate any trap/quickplay spell card during damage step, except for a trap/spell which can increase/ decrease a card ATK/DEF". Of course, you eligible to negate the activation of the spell/trap card mentioned. I felt something fishy here, how could his opponent asking about whether he respond the attack or not. I guess, it is a secret, and it just a bluff to pretake the initiative move. What do you think guys ? If it was me,"Do you respond my attack ?""Dunno, will you attack me or not?"If he choose yes, it most likely he would use the card on his sleeve.Then, sakuretsu awaits. But, it might not working if he insist asking me...Truly a very confusing situation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aztex Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Well, it is very confusing when there is only Drillroid and Sakuretsu Armor and asked to respond or not, but in the end, I guess it after reading the rules also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavyd91 Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Wait a minute, you CAN'T activate other traps or quick-play spells during damge step (other than mask of weakness and rush recklessly type cards right?) ? didnt know that. Anyways, i would've responed with sakuretsu armor. It couldnt have been a bluff, more like he forgot about sakuretsu or didnt care. no offense of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry OldMaster Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Well, if he DECLARES an attack, he can't stop it anymore. So, you could just activate Sak and leave him alone. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
God GAK Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 I don't get this. Can you explain better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marisa Posted November 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Someone attacked you with a lower atk monster, he asks you whether you activate something or not to respond this attack. If you answer it with not, he will attack, and activates Rush Recklessly from his hand. You can't respond it with sakuretsu, because Rush Recklessly activated at the damage step he said. My point of view, the question he asked earlier is a bit fishy.It just as if he asked me what kind of trap I have down there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abstract [Atrocity] Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I always get suspicious whnever my opponent attacks witha weaker monster, leaves themselves wide open, or attackswithout meaning (like randomly attacking a face-up marshmallon). And like Spells and Traps that that increaseATK/DEF, Counter Traps can also be activated in the Damage Step. Attack a Marshmallon? You can activate Divine Wrathif it was set a turn earlier.

Orochi Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 it's pretty OBVIOUS!!!! when the opponent declares an attack with a weaker monster it's OBVIOUS that he/she will use rush recklessly, shrink, blast with chain, etc... that's not a bluff, that's using your head and know that a move like that will hurt you...

marisa Posted November 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 No, the one who's bluffing here was me. Not him.Do you respond my attack ?Dunno, would you attack me or not ?Then, if he activates the Rush Recklessly, I'll respond that with Sakuretsu.I'll say, "I activate this, when you said you attack me, it is not even at the damage step" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orochi Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 same here... that's not a bluff... a bluff is setting a creature swap and your opponent doesn't attack thinking that it's sakuretsu... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaaraofthesand617 Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 same here... that's not a bluff... a bluff is setting a creature swap and your opponent doesn't attack thinking that it's sakuretsu... holly :shock: who does that... other than me. i only do that in person so if i fidget the card a bit they dont do annything i stalled for 3 turns whispering stuff about mirror force, and fidgeting the card when my opponent used MST on it imagine there surprise to see an ax of despair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orochi Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 any experienced player scares his opponent setting cards that he/she won't use yet to make him waste the heavy storm and the MST... i used to set the NoC or the swap, then i set sakus, mirror, torrential, etc... even a guy got angry to me because i set a NoC and the thought that it was mirror and didn't attacked, he set and then in my turn i used brain control over his monster and played NoC against his set monster, that it was gravekeeper's spy, he lost 2 cards of his deck, lose advantage then i won...

You don't really understand do you?No matter the upcoming answer to my question, I gained something.Should I spill the bean? Mr.Snake? Normal people weak to dumb questions.... My friend fell 3 times against the trick, and defeated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orochi Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 i understood, but that won't work for all people, only the novice people that don't have some habits, like checking your grave, asking how many cards are on your hand, or watching the set card's shape (a friend knew when the opponent has a mirror force face down only by noticing that the card is a little more bent than the others) mind tricks only works on weak minds, my young padawan...
