I'm playing cards in Duel City

Chapter 57 New Rules

"What do you think about the existing dueling monster games?" Haima sat behind the desk, crossing his fingers and resting his chin.

You Yu entered the door generously, dragged away the chair in front of the desk that was obviously prepared for him, and sat down.

"That's right," he said, "a little personal opinion on the game."

"Is it about the flaws in the existing rules? Let me guess," Kaima narrowed his eyes, "You want to talk about the availability of magic cards and the attack restrictions of fusion monsters, right?"

You Yu was a little surprised.

It should be said that he really deserves to be the president of Haima, and he really knows things like a god.If it was Bekas on the opposite side, You Yu might have begun to wonder if he used a mind scan on himself at this moment.

Seeing his surprised expression, Haima was quite satisfied, so he couldn't help snorting: "A top-notch duelist only needs one duel to understand the opponent's heart. I have roughly understood what you want to say through the duel."

You Yu vaguely felt that he had heard these words somewhere before, and it seemed that a well-known second pillar next door had also said similar things

Talking to a smart person saves time and effort, and the hippocampus has already understood what he means without him even opening his mouth.

"Tell me about your own thoughts, I want to hear you explain in detail, and the reasons why you think so." Haima leaned back into the seat, and the presence of the old god seemed like an interviewer was interviewing and assessing.

Of course, You Yu had already prepared the speech, and he just missed writing a speech in advance.

He briefly talked about his views on the attack limit of Fusion Summoning and the activation time of magic cards, and cited various actual combat cases that had been prepared to prove his views.

He focused on the use of magic cards in this discussion, because this is also one of the places he feels most uncomfortable playing with the existing rules.

According to the current rules, magic cards can be activated from the hand, can be activated immediately after being covered on the field, or can be activated during the opponent's turn, even in the battle phase, the damage calculation step where the monsters of both sides have already engaged in battle can be activated instantly.

In this way, the function of the trap card is very weak. The covered round cannot be used, and it cannot be activated directly from the hand. After being drawn, it must be delayed for a round before it can be used, which makes the function of the trap card particularly useless.

In fact, Yu-Gi-Oh DM has always been like this in the early days. Most people use magic cards to fight, and the frequency of trap cards is far less than that of magic cards.

You Yu made his point clearly.He said that magic and traps should have their own characteristics, and they should be irreplaceable.

The advantage of magic cards should be that they can be used from the hand immediately after being picked up, but they cannot be used during the battle phase or the opponent's turn.

Trap cards can be used at any point in the battle step and the opponent's turn, but as a limitation, the turn that is set cannot be activated immediately, and it must be delayed for one turn to take effect.

In fact, this is just the most basic.In You Yu's view, under the existing rule system, the processing speed of monster effects, magic card and trap card effects, quick-play magic and counter-trap effects is also a mess.

However, the chain processing of effects and timing issues are the most complicated part of the Yu-Gi-Oh game rules system, and You Yu doesn't expect the rules to be perfected to that point immediately.

After all, most duelists are still struggling with the painful new rule of "superior summons require sacrifices", and forcing them to figure out this high-tech concept at this point is really difficult.

He didn't spend much time convincing President Haima about this part, because he soon discovered that the president seemed to have reflected on this part of the rules.

However, on some parts, the president still refuses to give in completely.

"What you said about the need for a distinction between magic cards and trap cards, and that they cannot be substituted for each other, is indeed reasonable." Haima said, "You said that magic cards cannot be activated during the opponent's turn, which is indeed quite reasonable. But you said Not even being able to use it in your own combat phase, that would be ridiculous."

You Yu raised his eyebrows.

Ridiculous?

Why do I think it's even more outrageous for you to open Gaika, the dead Su Sheng, when the opponent's attack is declared, and kill the opponent's attacking monster?

Then regarding the "attack limit of fusion summoning", You Yu tried his best to make President Haima let go of his mouth in the end

Haima's reason is simple: "If I can attack in the round of fusion summoning, then if I fusion summon the invincible 'Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon' within one round and attack immediately, wouldn't the duel be over in an instant?

That's ridiculous!This kind of thing affects the balance too much, so don't talk about it anymore. "

You Yu couldn't help being speechless.

What a god, the blue-eyed ultimate dragon, you really think that everyone uses 502 glue to glue the three white marriages and one fusion all together like you?

And what's so proud of if you exchange three blue eyes and one fusion four cards for a whiteboard with 4500 attack power?

Not to mention others, if you played like this when you were dueling with Wang Xiang, if you stepped on a sacred protective shield-mirror power or magic tube, wouldn't it explode on the spot?

However, this made You Yu look at Haima with admiration. At least he seemed to be a conscientious president who was trying to balance the game.

It was the first time he saw someone add restrictions to himself with the reason that "such a rule would make me too strong", which was in stark contrast to the company where a former game director he only knew "So Cooooool" all day long, and the game balance was hard to describe.

But You Yu still did not give up.He tried his best to explain to Haima that the method of merging the "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" in the starting hand requires a lot of hand cards, which is a high-risk behavior, and it should have high rewards.

Or it would be better to use four cards in one go in exchange for an Ultimate Dragon, but you can’t attack this round and have to wait for the opponent to deal with it in the next round. That’s a serious imbalance.

As a result, Haima rolled his eyes: "Hmph! Undo my 'Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon' in one round? That's impossible!"

You Yu: ""

"There is no need to continue discussing this point." Haima waved his hand, "If I can attack immediately in the round of fusion summoning, doesn't that mean that I can use the three blue-eyed white dragons to attack first, and use the fusion handle during the battle stage to attack?" The three bodies are fused into the ultimate dragon and then continue to attack? Think about it, is this reasonable?"

reasonable?Of course it is unreasonable.

So you deleted the rule "Magic cards can be activated during the battle phase" for me, Hun Dan!

You Yu discovered that even a super genius and top duelist like Seto Kaiba has long been accustomed to the existing framework of dueling monster rules.

His willingness to listen to himself and make so many changes is no easy feat.However, some long-term inertial thinking has caused Haima to not be on the same channel as You Yu in many parts of his thinking. It is useless to tell him

Finally, You Yu specially proposed the concept of "battle rollback".

The concept did pique Hippocampus' interest.

"During the battle step, if the number of monsters on both sides of the field changes, can you reconfirm whether to attack?"

Haima rested his chin in thought for a while, his eyes flickering.

"Interesting, indeed interesting." He nodded and said, "This may indeed be feasible, but it needs to consider more situations and do some tests before it is actually put into operation."

You Yu nodded in understanding.

For such an important change to go live, testing is definitely necessary.But judging from Haima's interested reaction, he thinks there should be something going on.

However, You Yu immediately thought about whether Haima himself would be fooled after the battle rolled back to this concept?

For example, the famous anime scene that he imagined before

Dark Game: "I use 'Osiris' Sky Dragon' to attack the 'XYZ Dragon Cannon' on your field!"

Haima: "Hahahaha at this moment, I activate the 'subspace material transmission device' to remove the monsters on my field from the game! The sky dragon has lost its attack target, and your attack is invalid!"

Dark Game: "Haiba, didn't you read your own rules carefully? The moment you eliminated the monster caused a 'battle rollback', I used the sky dragon to attack directly, and you lost Haima!"

Haima: "Nani, I forgot! What a horrible game!"

Well, probably not, right?

"Many of your ideas are very interesting." Haima said, leaning back in the chair, "I can see that your understanding of dueling monster cards is very different from that of some non-talented mortal duelists."

(Patting the table in the city: This is going to be hard, right?)

Although Seto Kaiba is very stinky and looks arrogant anytime and anywhere, in fact, he is relatively easy to communicate with only people he approves of.

For example, Yugi Muto, who he considers his number one archenemy.

Although Haima always likes to be sarcastic every time he sees the game, and dismisses the friendship that the game emphasizes, but whenever the game encounters any trouble, the president is the most active, and at the same time he always likes to say something "Don't get me wrong I did it because of XXX reasons, and I didn't intend to help" or something like that.

"Your suggestion has given me a lot of inspiration. The rules should be adjusted again before the game starts."

As Kaiba spoke, he paused for a moment, his blue eyes shone with a sharp light.

"Originally, I hoped to invite you to work at Haima Company to be responsible for the planning and adjustment of the dueling monster department, but I forgot it." He snorted and smiled, "I know that a duelist like you will not be moved by money, nor will you be moved by money." I don’t want to be tied up in the Haima Group.”

You Yu: "?"

What?Why not?

Gan!President, you are tempting me with dirty money!How can you give up without even trying?

Are you still a real duelist?

"However," Haima changed the subject and said again, "The rule adjustments you just mentioned still need a lot of testing. Time is running out, I can only postpone the Duel City match for a week at most, and the rest of the time must be completed All tests and tweaks.

So if you are interested, I would like to invite you to be a special advisor to the Dueling Monster Department to oversee the revision of this part and ensure that there will be no loopholes in the new rules.

This job does not require you to stay at Haima Group all the time, nor does it require you to go to work every day to report.I just need your opinion and your deep understanding of the game.

I don't trust the so-called professional designers to make a Duel Monsters game what it should be, I need a real duelist to do the job. "

You Yu probably understood.

In fact, Haima hopes that he can make a name in the department and make real-time adjustments to the follow-up rules of dueling monsters.After all, there will be more and more new cards, the game environment will continue to change, and the rules will need to be adjusted accordingly.

And if he can be named as a consultant, then he is equivalent to the communication link between Nightcrawler World and Haima Group. The task assigned to him by President Tang Zekui is considered to be completed, killing two birds with one stone.

Just as he was thinking about it, You Yu heard Haima say again: "As for the salary, since it is only a special consultant, it will naturally be relatively low. If you have no objection, the first month's salary will be this amount."

The president pushed a check that had been prepared already along the table.

"No problem!" You Yu glanced at the check hastily, and immediately agreed.

Remuneration?Hehe, he and someone don't care about this kind of thing at all.

The reason why he accepts this job is to live up to the expectations of the president, and for the future of the card game Duel Monsters!

But having said that, President Haima really gave a lot

　A super chapter of [-] words, isn't this a wave of investment recommendations?
