Recommended Posts

 

Odd-Eyes Gravity Dragon

Level 7 EARTH Dragon-Type Ritual Effect Monster

ATK 2800

DEF 2500

This card can be Ritual Summoned by “Odd-Eyes Advent”. You can only use the (1) effect of “Odd-Eyes Gravity Dragon” once per turn.

(1) When this card is Special Summoned: You can return all Spell/Trap Cards your opponent controls to the hand. Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects in response to this effect’s activation.

(2) Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects except by paying 500 LP.

 

 

Odd-Eyes Advent

Ritual Spell Card

This card can be used to Ritual Summon any Dragon-Type Ritual Monster. You can only activate 1 “Odd-Eyes Advent” per turn.

(1) Ritual Summon 1 Dragon-Type Ritual Monster from your hand or Graveyard by Tributing Pendulum Monsters from your hand or side of the field whose combined Levels are equal to or greater than the monster you Ritual Summon. If your opponent controls 2 or more monsters while you control no monsters, you can send “Odd-Eyes” monsters from your Extra Deck to the Graveyard instead of Tributing monsters.

I can honestly say I never expected Odd-Eyes to get a Ritual. I wonder if that says anything about a possible future plot development in Arc-V. It won't necessarily be used at all in the anime, but...it COULD.

 

I like that the Ritual Spell works on any Dragon Ritual monster, plus it has the somewhat expected extra effect of being able to perform a Ritual Summon using face-up Odd-Eyes monsters in your Extra Deck.

As bonkers as this card is, I think the fact that it's a Ritual will hold itself back from seeing too much competitive play. The fact that it lacks protection is another thing as well

 

You don't count "Return all opponent S/Ts to hand, opponent can't chain to this" as protection? And your opponent has to pay 500 LP to activate cards and effects?

 

I doubt it'll see competitive play except in more dedicated Odd-Eyes Decks.

while the on-summon have protection, I am kinda guessing queen meant lingering one but I am not complaining. though i find it amusing that it's a walking chain energy except it only goes toward the activation of cards. I can see that, despite not being competitive, it might even be a bit squishy to the odd-eye deck that try to do all the summons.

OH YEAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!! I'm gonna try to make a deck with ALL the Odd-Eyes (minus Odd-Eyes Dragon). Now all I want to see out of this pack is Blue-Eyes support and then I'm golden!

 

OT- it is called BREAKER of Shadows. Why wouldn't Blue-Eyes be in?

 

Why minus Odd-Eyes Dragon? It might not be good, but you can use it to summon Saber.

AAHHH!!!

 

I knew it! This is why it's called Arc-V! Pendulum-Xyz-Synchro-Fusion-Ritual! I knew Rituals would be important! I was sure of it! I knew it!

 

Rituals were being overshadowed by the rest of the Summoning methods in the anime? They only had one showing in Prediction Princesses? No! They will be the secret, hidden 5th faction/dimension!

 

God, Rituals seemed so unimportant so far in the anime that I only had a speck of hope that they would actually explore it as another Summoning method on equal terms with the Extra Deck ones. But they did it. And the fact that they will do it this late, on top of the fact that it's not Extra Deck like the others, means that it will be special!

 

Arc-V really is unrivaled.

 

So this is the first Ritual that can summon more than 1 Specific monster but doesn't require exact Levels. That's neat.

 

But it requires Pendulum Monsters as Tributes, so it's still restricted in another way in some way. I think that's also the first time specific monster requirements are listed on the Ritual Spell rather than the Ritual Monster (not that restrictions on Ritual Monsters existed for much, only Nekroz I believe, but it's something).

 

The fact that it Ritual Summons from the Graveyard is also nice.

Wow, Nekroz flashbacks from that card.

 

Also PSA: Odd-Eyes Advent is searchable with Arc in the Sky. I feel those 2 might get teched into Odd-Eyes deck easily as well since they're both so searchable and Advent is a free summon if you ditch OEPD from extra.

It feels better to just run Vortex and Absolute. I mean, it's really good and all, but this dude lacks some things as I mentioned like consistent protection and especially in the OCG with Raff being as predominant as it is, this card won't be worth the Ritual Summon unless you get it by sending OEPD from the ED

Where is a problem in running 1 OEF and 1 OEA? Also Absolute is an Xyz so idk how does it correlate to this.

 

Also so what it doesn't have protection? It's an unanswerable Giant Trunade on legs, allowing you to safely OTK your opponent.

 

If you guys think it's no worth the Ritual Summon, then something is wrong, especially since you ALWAYS will summon it by the 2nd effect.

I expected this.

Can confirm, you said that you wanted to see Odd-Eyes getting a Ritual in May.

 

But it requires Pendulum Monsters as Tributes, so it's still restricted in another way in some way.

I guess we shouldn't be too surprised that it requires Pendulums for the ritual summon, to keep in-theme.

I also think it's neat that i can ritual summon from the grave too.

Also honest question: how could people not expect a Ritual Odd-Eyes?

 

Pendulum, Xyz, Synchro, Fusion, ???

 

It was obvious since the start we're gonna get a Ritual one.

 

Rituals have received much less attention in Arc-V compared to Fusion, Synchro and Xyz. It also doesn't originate from the Extra Deck like those three.

 

It wasn't obvious. The possibility was always there so I guess we can't be too surprised, but it wasn't certain at all whether Rituals would play a major part in the plot of Arc-V.

 

Though now I guess it's more or less "confirmed" that "Arc-V" refers to how the Pendulum unites the five Ritual, Fusion, Synchro, Xyz and Pendulum mechanics. We couldn't be sure before (or even now, but it's way more probable).

Red eyes flare metal dragon that Giant Trunade's their field on summon. Ritual spell can get materials for free.

 

Yay odd eye can now not waste material summoning REFMD and can instead summon absolute dragon AND this piece of sheet. Great.

 

Thank god it has no self protection or float/recycle power.

It's still Arc-FIVE. And the anime isn't even 1/3 in, give it time. And seeing as rituals DID appear in anime (Mieru played the Princesses at least) means they will get some exposition sooner or later. We're in a Synchro Dimension for now, so yeah.

 

Uh...what? How couldn't you be sure what Arc-FIVE refers to? There are 5 monster mechanics. We saw 4 out of 5 and we're seen Pendulum Xyz as well so far. I just don't see how it wasn't obvious. Being thrown so many evidence in face doesn't need a flat-out confirmation, but I guess it is one finally for people who had doubts.

I'm just going to ignore all the other side-discussions about this card's implications in Arc-V. It's not the main point here if some of you guys will be irate about it; I'm just thinking about if this card will ever make an impact in Magicians if Malacoda could never work out with BA enough.

 

Anyways, it's generally a Red-Eyes Flare for the deck that uses a Giant Trunade effect that only works on your opponent. The burn is nice with the complimented ability of high ATK, but with many Pendulum decks on rise, not sure if being exclusive to your opponent will make it that much of an impact, or it not being floaty. The Spell is nice since it works for any Dragon Ritual, but no one will bother running Saffira or Lord of the Red with this. Overall the Ritual is alright I guess. Standalone with Absolute can push for further guaranteed OTKs, and can definitely use Spiritual Whisper to some degree, but there's still a meh factor.
