    God, I love the Abyss lore so much. If Konami ever gets tired of trying to make new mechanics for new series I'd be down with anime adaptations of the various card stories (Duel Terminal, World Legacy, True Draco, and of course, the Abyss).

    • @clayxros576

      Oh the stories they've got on the cards is easily anime level in quality. I'm a little surprised they haven't yet, it'd be easy money especially since they have animation contracts for other projects.
      Also we could finally get a sick Vendread anime.

      @@thepronoob4039 It honestly reminds of the old novelized storylines for Magic: The Gathering, back when Planeswalkers were able to manipulate the planes and all sorts of other OP stuff, in comparison to these later storylines--which I don't think are bad, just to be clear. The quality that I feel coming off the Duel Terminal story, however, is much more "high fantasy", with a greater scope and no single focus.

    The Scene with Adin and Theo also has Fleurdelis being carried on Theo's shoulder, so it's likely a Flashback to after they fled from Dogmatika

    My takeaway on the Icejades is that they are the recorders of history, and that's why their markings appear all over the place and grow along their body's after enough time. Then they record the memories with the bubble orb. Kinda like the one Rick and Morty episode with the memory helmet, but more waifu and with sick tattoos.

    I really love the idea that the Despians aren't actually creatures, they're just masks that possess people and objects from some other dimension. It really gives them a unique cool vibe while allowing them to reference a lot of stuff really well. The Despians themselves probably don't even have the ability to fuse with living beings on their own, BUT whoever Albert is did and they've taken him over to gain that power. And now that they have that, they're trying to capture Albaz to obtain more of Albert's super useful abilities.

  • @gregoriovillanueva3558

    It is just me or every arc type in the dogma story have specials way of doing something with the extra deck or what
    1.dogmatika counter extra deck
    2.tribrigade using graveyard to link summon
    3.fallen of albaz using monsters that fusion summon with opponent monsters with out a fusion spell
    4.springan Attaching themselves into their xyz
    5.xiangjiang one card syncro
    6.despia emphasized one using field spell to fusion
    All of them is and if I read and Heard Correct masqruade The crimsongleam dragon have ritual and all of those extra deck summon but only ritual that have yet a specific deck in
    This story line that make me wonder what a wierd gimmick that will be a ritual deck of this story

    @pawn7418 Před 2 lety +2

    Tremolats art depicting the events of the past story could be in reference to a theory called "water memory". where water holds memory of substances it has dissolved. So in the art work these could be memories of the characters that have come in contact with water and then the water returns to the peak of the mountain after evaporating, draining into the Icejades pools they can see these memories.
    this is kinda far fetched but it would be a nice reference to a silly theory.

    The Abyss Lore keeps more interested as the addition of Ice Jade And Xiangjan.. more interesting that Ecclesia is more than now she was before and (in my opinion) she and Albaz is teaming up with Xiangjan and try to find her friends (Theo and Adin)... but more and more hype is Despia... they began to upgrade their forces to dominate the world... i can't wait what'z next for this...

    I like that each archetype brought up against the Dogmatikas represent one extra deck summoning mechanic. Tribrigades are links, springans are xyzs, swordsouls are synchros, and Albaz is fusion. Because the Dogmatikas oppose the extra deck, it's interesting that their opponents represent it.

    The way I always saw Aluber was that he is a dark mirror of Albaz, which is why they both have similar looks and abilities. I can kinda see the girl in Genesis being Aluber, but I'm going to be sticking with the dark mirror theory until something that disproves it comes up.
    Also, I don't think Branded in Red is a flashback, but instead what happened after Branded Opening, as we can see Dogmatika on fire on the artwork of Ad Libitum as well.

    With Xiangjian now only Pendulum and a real Ritual Deck are missing if they don't just make different archetypes for each Extra Deck Summoning method. Maybe we could get a new archetype that uses all Summoning Methods consisting of members of every faction for the final battle which also would be neat. But if they did make Pendulums and/or Rituals I would be very interested to see what special gimmiks they would get.
    And what is that for music that you use in the lore segments? It fits the mood so perfectly you could mean it was intended for exactly that.

    I think it could be possible this is still a flashback. The Hole has been stealing stuff for a long time, and the Dogmatika church has been around for a long time as well. If Albert is still a flashback, it could be the time when the church was founded by Despia. Perhaps back then the church struck a deal, or maybe Albion broke free from the armor and forced the Despia to retreat, leaving a contingency force to build power in Nadir, the random Hole openings being a reinforcement ritual or a result of a weakened world barrier. When Albion fell back into Nadir, Maximus knew they'd run out of time and initiated Despia's encore. Despite not being meta relevant, Albion has done quite a good job uniting forces against Nadir as well as harnessing the power he had up until now used in a self defensive and feral way. Albert could easily be either possessed armor binding Albion, or Albion's true original form before he changed his mind and broke free, the removal of his Despia brand causing mental damage that prevented him from being truly effective.
    This is just under the assumption it could be a flashback tho. If it isn't, then Albert could just be a mirror or evil twin lol.

    Icejade cradle YGO trivia says that's Fleur (Dogma) and Tremolat become Iris in the artwork. Im guessing Tremolat helps Iris from her Dogma/Fleur state which turned her into Iris

    Ok, I am totally convinced Albert, and by extension Nightgleam Dragon, is that mysterious girl.

    Ok soo, bear with me this will be a long comment, but I THINK there's some chronology things that need to be fixed:
    First of all, I don't think Tri-Brigades came from The Hole™, if we remember correctly, the three things that came from The Hole™ were: "A form of Dark Matter", "A Relic from a Lost Civilization" and then Albaz
    Given it seems Tri-Brigade uses the blue crystals as a energy source instead of munition (As Bearbrumm is show powered by em') it would make sense that those crystals are that energy that came from The Hole™, additionaly, we seen Albaz holding one of those crystals in Springans Booty, which could mean that GiantSnakeBOi either ate one and got corrupted by it, or being affected by The Hole™ created one inside of it, and that's why Kit is seen so enthusiastic to see it
    The Relic them, could very well be The Nexus™, which would create a nice interaction here with the two factions, both Tri-Brigade and Dogmatikas uses things that came from The Hole™
    If that's the case, maybe it's not that Maximus is a puppet, but The Nexus™ is actually a trap, or at least has some interactions with Despians, and was waiting to reveal it's true form, corrupting the entire nation
    On that note, the timeline fits better like this:
    Albaz drops from the The Hole™ in Titanclad form, wharever the reason for that
    Fleur strikes him down
    Ecclesia decides not to kill him
    Tri-Brigades atack Dogmatika nation, we don't know it that's a pre-planned atack or if they saw the opportunity to strike
    Conflict breaks inside the nation
    Ecclesia is punished for sparring Albaz
    Albaz turns into Bigrand absorbing part of The Hole™ energy emanating and Ecclesia's stigmata
    Maximus goes nuts with the oncoming defeat and decides to use The Nexus™ powers to enhance Fleur (and maybe the other members of the Holy Knights as well)
    Fleur turns into White Knight against her will, probably being forced to battle as the armor moves on it's own, eventually being able to escape it tho'
    The overwhelming Hole Energy™ reaches a critical point and boom, Despians finally descend upon the world, corrupting everyone in close proximity, including Maximus and Ashiyan
    With the weird Despian corruption spreading, -Albert- Aluber showing up, being a mirror image of Albaz(which could be because the two came from the same place or because part of Albaz essence or wharever stayed in The Nexus™ after de-fusing) scares him shitless, as well as having a dragon form of it's own, makes everyone retreat
    Dogmatika Nation is turned into teather throught The Nexus™ true form spreading Despian corruption, Fleur, Theo and Adin barely escaped
    Tri-Brigade gives Albaz the birb to help them find Kit and the Springans to guide them throught the desert
    The Springans probably ain't the most friendly of factions and atack Albaz and Ecclesia, who resort to powering up some old busted ship using The Birb(Remember, Albaz ain't fused with the ship, and instead it's piloting it), as it probably is powered by those Blue Darkmatter stones
    After seeing The Hole™ appear, Albaz and Ecclesia end up being captured, but later are set free because The Birb given by Shuraig is actually Kit's birb, and she's friend with the Springans
    The Hole fully opens and spawms (Or corrupts) the GiantSnakeBOi
    Albaz is able to turn into Albion the first time to try anf defeat the thing
    Fleur appears an saves the day
    Albaz reverts back into human form after being greeted by Ecclesia(Who first seemed kinda exhitant about him in Springans Watch but now is opening her arms to his dragon form, showing their bond being strenghtned by Albaz courage in fighting GiantSnakeBOi)
    Everyone throws a party for the battle won, I have no clue where the loot came from, we could argue that BigSnakeBOi eats metal/gold, and that lot came from inside it, which also would explain why it'd be such a threat to Sprigans, who inhabit steel bodies, but that'd be just a guess, what we do know is that Ecclesia uses the skull of the thing to make a new hammer, and that there's a springans living inside it, probably making it a rocket hammer, which is badass af
    Ecclesia is reunited with Fleur and the others
    They go see the swordsouls for...some reason, idk
    They're running from the Despians, probably becuse they want Albaz, or, Aluber wants Albaz, idk
    Sidenote: The Icejades had something to do with Fleur's recovery, the one inside the bubble in Icejade Cradel is her, which is weird because they seem to live where the swordsoul lives, did Theo and Adin knew about it and brought her there? Did the Icejades searched for Fleur, brought her there, and then yeeted her to find Albaz and Ecclesia? Idk

    Icejades, as you probably already know, has Cosmocroix, who seemed to be the ruler of the Icejade Monsters. Then there is Icejade Erosion, which is erosive to effects of any monster as to they’re itself. Erosion negates an opponent’s monster, then destroys an Icejade Monster. But then there is Icejade curse. If the artwork isn’t an indication of their lore, it shows Agel watching Cosmocroix disintegrating before her eyes. So what it does, Curse attacks an opponent equal a monster’s original Atk.
    So what I can assume from this is that Cosmocroix sacrifices herself in order to defend her kingdom (the Field Spell: Icejade Depths: Inion Cradle/Effect- Once per turn, when a monster is summoned, target 1 Icejade and lower its attack to 0, then subject the attack to your opponent’s monsters).
    So basically, Icejades erode themselves in order to erode the enemy monster. Even sacrificing themselves in order to protect their kingdom. And if it’s not a big indication of that, *Icejade Erosion* has artwork of monsters attacking *Icejade Depths: Inion Cradle* .

    One interesting thing you can splash IceJades to are Sharks. There's the obvious Rank 4 synergy that most Sharks have anyway, but the Level 5s facilitate access to their boss, Valiant Shark Lancer.
    Also, please, don't shatter my hopes for some Metaphys Xiangjian mashups!

    My takeaway is that the 2 characters seen in branded in white , branded in red are 2 of the world's chosen but taken different paths. One seeks to spread dispair as a result of the stigma curse. Originally the orbs he had will be similar to albaz , but darkness had tainted it turning it red , and causing it's owner to seek out albaz. To absorb his power.

    At this point I'm just waiting for the Pendulum archetype of this lore, and hope that it becomes somewhat viable, much like the Qlis and Amorphages of the former lores.
    Also, Fusion seems to always end up being the "bad guy" summoning mechanic, apart from the Anime, as seen with the Shaddolls, Despia, and the Infernoids.

    Yeah this lore is awesome, my theory, Albert and fallen are connected in some way maybe brothers, but they possess different stigmata’s (white and red). I don’t think despia is the clothing because then I think fallen would have other issues and the red haired girl we see with the dogmatikas is gonna be alberts’ eclisea 😶‍🌫️🤯

    The Icejades made my Gustkraken Handloop deck more consistent, since I'm insisting on using the Gishki engine plus water support.
    I both love and hate them for this. It feels like Konami forgot Gustkraken exists and is now providing more and more support to make it a threat.

    • @clayxros576
      @clayxros576 Před 2 lety

      Also I love seeing Ecclesia use that skull she was carrying in Sprigguns Booty as her new WEAPON. The girl is stupid strong compared to her size, and seeing Albion behind her like a guard dog makes me very happy. Either he's stuck like that and he's loyal to her at this point (Which can work if he was just surviving in Albaz and was feral) or they're a proper duo/couple and he is ready to jump in to help her _if_ she needs help. Considering he seems a bit relaxed in the art, I don't think Ecclesia needed the mark to get work done.

    Maybe Albas is "the original" and (like certain green anime character) he get rid of his evil thoughts which took a form of its own (Albert).
    That could fit the theme of Albert being a fairy since it was technically a evil-part of the dragon lad.

  • @Gilphon
    @Gilphon Před 3 lety

    I think the Xiangjian are giving Ecclesia and Albion a power-up in Research. Like they taught her how to be Tuner. And maybe we'll get a Synchro form of Albion in the future to represent his power-up.
    Also: my pet theory is that whoever's truly behind the Despians is gonna be a fusion of Albaz and Aluber.
