Mechanics
Cyberdark Impacts includes cards used by
Zane
Truesdale and
Chancellor Sheppard
in the
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime series. The
Cyberdark cards of
the former salvage Dragon-type monsters from the Graveyard of a
predetermined level when successfully summoned, increasing their
own ATK strengths by those belonging to the Dragons with which they
are equipped and gaining one-time use protection against being
destroyed through battle, while the
Cyber-Style
cards of the latter possess a wide range of effects. Further
support is placed on the
LV and
Alien archetypes, and the set also incorporates
two new strategies:
Chain Link and
Senet. Cards falling under the first category
provide players with greater rewards depending on the number of
cards activated in a single chain, while Monster Cards falling
under the second can be physically moved to adjacent Monster Zone
spaces.
Notable cards
Vanity's Fiend - A
monster that cannot be Special Summoned, but while face-up on the
field, prevents the Special Summoning of all monsters.
Cyberdark
Dragon - Fusion Summoned through the merger of
Cyberdark Horn, Cyberdark Edge, and Cyberdark
Keel, this card does not share the level inhibitor that its
predecessors possess; it is able to equip a Dragon-type monster of
any level to itself, and also gains an additional 100 ATK points
for each Monster Card in its controller's Graveyard.
Cyber Ogre 2 - The most powerful "Cyber-Style"
monster. Fusion Summoned through the merger of two Cyber
Ogre cards, this monster's ATK strength increases by half the
ATK strength of the monster with which it battles.
Instant Fusion - A Spell Card with a cost of 1000
Life Points, of which only 1 copy may be played per turn. It
Special Summons a Fusion Monster from the player's Fusion Deck of
level 5 or less, though the monster summoned through this effect
cannot attack and is destroyed at the End Phase.
Justi-Break - A Trap Card that can be activated
when a face-up Normal Monster is the target of an opponent's
attack. It destroys all monsters other than Normal Monsters in
face-up attack position.References
