Kaiba's Union Monsters Are Back And Better Than Ever! [ New Card Live Reaction ] [ Light Union XYZ ] 

About the last effect of the spell card: in the duel against Yugi in the semis of Battle City, Seto tributes his combined XYZ to summon Obelisk (treating it as three monsters). I think that’s the reference here.

It's so hilarious that the most cutthroat capitalist businessman in the series is known for using literal Union monsters.

I love how the spell basically makes this an obelisk "archetype" the same as what the poker knights is to slifer

The Y Earhead was copied wrong - it equips from hand or GY (so it isn't identical to Z). It's fixed now on the site

Good lord, that thumbnail. "You'll never catch me, Krabs! Not when I switch into *MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE"*

We can finally play abc and xyz in one deck more effectively!

The level 8 light machine fusion text is written that way to specifically only work with the ABC, XYZ and VWXYZ fusions.... And according to yugipedia, it also includes Cyber Twin Dragon.

Hahah, the last spell card lets you summon blue ey- .....wait, 3000 or MORE?...... Obelisk?

My immediate thought was “Oh good, now I can put obelisk into my ojama deck”

I think it would have been really funny if they made a 3-mat Rank 4 Xyz version of XYZ Dragon Cannon

I think that second effect you're thinking is meant to be a Summon BEs reference might be for Obelisk. Because what else would Kaiba love to summon after Special Summoning 3 monsters at the same time to get this effect?

7:37 not quite a monster, a GOD (this is basically harlequin trio for obelisk) Edit: minor spelling mistake

One day arcana force… one day.

The effect that normal summons the 3k+ attack monster is a reference to Kaiba tributing XYZ Dragon Cannon to summon Obelisk.

Also, it's an upgrade to help the older cards more. I like how it has updated support instead of being tacked on extra cards in the archetype. These new cards are good. I like full archetypes that can play on its own without engines or outside support

I wanna see what cool stuff you can do with the spells search and tribute effect. What comes to mind to me is beast king barbaros for the nuke and metaltron xii for the immunity to monster effects and a potential float

They're probably also going to have Kaiba high jack the set cover from Mizar, like what happened with the Water Duelist Pack

If only we could get a v w retrain

I loved ABC unions back when they first came out. If these makes those bad boys even a little playable in the meta I am going all in

This was the first archetype I ever played, I'm so pumped

This is really interesting to mix it with drytron.

"If you like light machine unions" yeah that's me lol, I can see cyber dragon getting some use out of this to

I just finished my ABC deck last week so this is awesome 🤣😂

Think parts of this could be splashed into cyber dragon with all this light machine and fusion emphasis?

Question: The new Y head and Z tank can loop themselves as long there's light machine monsters banished?, I mean, SS one to get themselves or other one using like a max 6 card to loop and summon things as long are "light machine" from extra or anything by adding extra normal summon for tributes?, even using monters cards to banish instead sending to grave to keep the loop going? This could possibly end on bringing multiple CD infinity? And other monsters? I mean, as long as they are Special summon can fetch something from the banish zone, then the new piece will special summon itself to fetch another thing and I think it's a soft one per turn the self summon while equipped

I'm wondering if photon delta wing would work well with these

So cross cannon is a 1 card combo into hyper dragon, but idk how viable that is.

You can add Beast king barbaros then tribute all 3 to wipe opt field or have a extra body

seems to me these offer some extra stuff to allow them to be run along side their original counterparts

Can't you extra foolish burial the hyper xyz to summon 2 abcs turn 1

I was expecting controller to be a Critias card but still works I guess

Honestly I have no idea how these will end up matching with other stuff, I'm just going to make a list with these as it's the only fusion archetype I've ever really enjoyed

I really love these new Cards! So here in the TCG they will probably get the High Rarity treatment...

Let’s goo

I can only assume these will just replace the old versions in the Ojama deck. If so then I may have to rebuild them.

I think it would be kinda funny if someone used the GY effect of Union Activation to search Beast King Barbaros 😆

This support is soo close to being what the deck needed. The problem is the new boss monster, which is clearly just a bridge into the original XYZ-Dragon Cannon, goes about it in the most unhelpful way. If it summoned the components from the deck, or even just included the hand it would be great, but reviving the components only works if you have a consistent way to dump them. Currently the best way to summon the Original XYZ-Dragon Cannon is to open Union Hanger and XYZ Combine. Activate Hanger; search Either Y-Dragon Head or Z-Metal Tank. Activate XYZ Combine. Summon the searched card, then equip the other to it with Union Hangers second effect. Contact fuse them into XY-Tank Dragon. Activate Combines First effect to summon X-Head Cannon, then defuse XY-Tank Dragon with XYZ Combine second effect, then combine your new 3 monsters into XYZ-Dragon Cannon. Since the new support doesn't take on the names of the original cards or summon them more efficiently, the only things the new support adds is a way to search the previously unsearchable XYZ Combine. So good luck summoning ABC-Dragon Buster without Union Hanger's effects. If the new support has unlocked other ways to get A-to-Z on the board (or at least get XYZ-Dragon Cannon on the board easier) let me know

Anybody else think about how these would work in an ojama deck?

I feel like they missed an opportunity to make it an actual XYZ monster. Its right there in the name, and you're already stacking them on top of each other! Other than that, these look amazing! The new Hyper Dragon Cannon is definitely up to par with ABC. The materials and summoning condition are infinitely less clunky compared to the originals, and the tag-out effect is extremely good - XYZ can't dodge targeting with it like ABC, but you can set up a ton of link materials plus another Fusion Summon The removal effect is strictly worse than ABC's, and a bit of a side-grade compared to the old XYZ. It's a Quick Effect and can hit spells/traps now, but you can only use it once per opponent's turn instead of an unrestricted number of times on your turn.

Good to know that my Patreon voted video is now outdated. Oh well that’s how It goes sometimes. Also in battle city for some reason XYZ dragon Cannon was treated as three tributes so he tribute it for God. Pretty sure that’s a reference for the spell

I want it now

Didn't Chazz also have beetle machine monsters that worked like Xyz monsters cards. I wouldn't have mind getting those rather than upgrades or both

You can just banish hyper dragon from the graveyard to get 3 summons. No matter how it got to grave?

Can we get VW support like this for Chazz

Valkyrie support when?

Good lord Obelisk support

It’s about dang time. I’ve been saying these need a retrain forever

Kinda sad the Controller doesn't have a equip or steal effect.

Kinda surprised that they didn't make Dimensional Catapult into a real card. In the original Japanese, that's the STU card (Super Thunder Unit).

Well, you’re the first person I went to at least

I activate the quick play spell Enemy Controller. Enter the code, left, right, A, B

Been spreading this around since I realized it but: X equips Y to make Controller which adds Activation. Activation adds Z which Controller summons, letting Z equip Y to make a second Controller. This makes Beatrice. These cards have a 1 card turn skip. X isnt the only one that does it though since Activation also has a line. Activation add X. Summon X and equip Y to make controller and add Hangar. Hangar add Z. Controller summons Z and Z equips Y to make another Controller. Thats a total of 9 copies of a 1 card Beatrice line to turn skip with. Can even add more by using a SHS engine if you want but feels like the bricks arent worth it lol.

Finally Komoney remembered that Kaiba used more monsters than just Blue Eyes

Galaxy got a starter haha

Come for the golden nova. Stay to watch ABC become outclassed by the OG. XD

My favorite running joke is people hating the ojamas - how could you hate them?

LIGHT MACHINE LIGHT MACHINE LIGHT MACHINE

can they make them xyz monsters already please

Nova looking like Guncannon over here. Now I'd like to see a Gundam theme. I know Sky Strikers are mech based

I must say even if like a lot X-Y-Z i find a bad joke the fact that we didn't had Sartorius Arcana Forces support on this set about LIGHT PLAYERS even if he was the leader of the society of LIGHT only used LIGHT monsters was being controlled by the LIGHT of destruction and 2024 is the 20 anniversary of the series where he appeared

love watching everyone forget that volcanic has RA suppourt.. lol also, where is the v/w retrains?? ;-;

Now tell me that the VW cards get the same love and make this perfect.

The only problem is your ip line is dead now with abc dragon into 4 material apo

I Need everyone know that Y says From Hand and graveyard not banished they messed up the translation

We don't have all the set spoilers yet, do we? Because we BETTER get Arcana Force. Seriously, Unions almost broke the game less than half a decade ago and now we're getting more of them when I can only remember Arcana Force receiving the one additional anime import, and that something like a year ago?

THIS SHIT MEANS SOMETHING TO ME MAN I SUMMON VWXYZ DRAGON CATAPULT CANNON

I'm glad Konami swallowed their pride and now does retains. Look at how much people enjoy them. People had been waiting for that for years.

It's kinda funny that these Xyz retrains are not XYZ extra deck monsters. Damn shame on the missed opportunity

Also, this continues to give unauthorized reactivation that much more use

Obelisk

JUST RUN A PURE VERSION OF THEM that is all the A card-themed. That combo really freaking well on their own it's the primary thing I don't like about Yugioh where you can't just play entirely pure archetype like other card game aka buddyfight cardfight vanguard mtg, etc

Am I the only one that doesn't see hard once per turn restrictions?

I think there is no reason why they couldn't put in the cards be treated as the original cards on the field or grave it wouldn't make them op

Cyber girl retrains CYBER GIRL RETRAINS BEING COMPATIBLE WITH THE ANGELS PLZZZZZ

Why summon a Blue-eyes, you can summon a GOD!

Kinda rude not making the card with enemy controller part of the monster not do anything related to enemy controller

This guy looks like spoony

I think that is kinda lame. Can we just get Different Dimension Hanger, Konami?

This is how the Attribute Duelist Packs close, huh. With even more DM pandering. My disappointment is immeasurable.

I'm disappointed 😞

In my opinion these are very mediocre and do nothing the Ojama support doesn't do better. Maybe in a dedicated deck it'll be okay but in my Manjoume and my Kaiba decks these are not needed.

Retrains that support the OGs, like most retrains. "We don't need to play the originals."🤮
