Hey dudes, I think Konami is doing pretty well and I'm gonna tell you why.
People love characters even if some of them are not very relevant. Not long ago SSB ultimate was released and it was a total success, one of the more appealing features the game had was, indeed, the HUGE amount of characters, almost Ronald McDonalds was there. That's very appealing to the public. Back in the day when Bandai Namco released Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (one of my 1st games btw), the game totally succeeded, why? it was highly appealing to the public, and yes... it had a HUGE amount of characters. So, they are doing very good when they give us new characters regularly, when Yubel was added to the game everyone went crazy, it was one of their best events.
the only problem I'm seeing with this, it's the fact this is still a mobile game and I don't know how smart would be to make it very big (too many GB) but I'm pretty sure they are aware of it.
Yeah, I'm very happy with lumis and umbra and I really hoped they would be introduced in game. There is no other official character from the first series that I wish for in duel links. But if they were to add canon characters, I wish for Noah Kaiba as the last one. He literally lived in a virtual world, he should find his way through dl with spirit support.
Since they added Umbra & Lumis I see no reason not to add Dartz in the future. Also, Noah... well... Noah was a weird character but I think plenty of people remember that guy and the YouTube videos in which he appears have thousands of views, so why not?
Dartz is impossible.
Not enough theme and not enough cards. Remember that you not only need enough cards for his drops and level up rewards, but also, you need him to have a lv20/30/40 deck that works. Can't do any of that when he only has 3 cards printed that doesn't work with each other, and he doesn't really have any other theme besides "Orichalchos", which also lacks enough cards.
It's the same reason why we're very unlikely to get O'Brien (Doomfire is in a main box), and Vector (all members of both Malicevorous and Umbral are in the RDA box)
Except Dartz's anime cards are all either broken or garbage. There's no value to adding any of them. Martyr Curse is probably the most useful card that actually would stand a chance, and it's basically just a worse Dark Spirit of the Silent.
I still don't think Dartz is impossible, but I doubt any of his anime-exclusive cards would make an appearance.
Hey Dartz!, as president of Kaiba Corporation I declare that move invalid !
- Dartz: But Kaiba, y-you can't...
- Kaiba: As a matter of fact, Dartz. I get to do this every day of my life. And now I activate pot of greed ! I draw as many cards as I want !
Damn, that Little Kuriboh has some 🔥 jokes in his lame parody. Sometimes it's pretty CRINGE to watch, it's just sooo bad. But at least the jokes against Dartz were a bit funny.
More likely the first Zexal world teasers will come before the last arc of Yugioh. I mean you could NOT really do a good Orchichalcos event with three monster slots.
...What does the number of monster zones have to do with an Orichalcos event? Seal itself is a good card even if it's JUST boosting ATK, and none of the four relevant characters (considering that Valon would obviously not be using Armors here) need a ton of field space for their decks to function, especially Dartz himself.
