In the history of King of Games, the Death Deck virus is also a fairly old-fashioned 1 Ancient God card. In the anime, the president of Haima has used this card many times, which has also made the sentiment party of this card very popular. The real card was launched early in the July 8, 1999 "Game King デュエルモンスターズ II Dark Duel Tale Tong 梱カード" package, and the almost suspenseless rarity was set as a UR.
However, subject to the slow environment at that time, although the effect of this card was obviously the existence of a supermodel, it did not have a bright performance in the actual battle at that time. Because during the period from 1999 to 2004, the mainstream group card idea of Game King was not to focus on monster cards, but on magic traps. It was the mainstream idea at that time to consume the opponent's resources through powerful magic traps, form a crushing trend after playing the resource difference, and then use the direct attack of the monster card to reduce the opponent's health.
At that time, direct battles between monsters and monsters were rare, and the solution was more about using magic traps, or low-attack monsters like fiber pots that could directly solve a large number of monsters from the other side. Of course, monsters like gems with the top 4-star attack power at that time will inevitably be added to the deck, but such monsters generally do not join a lot, and the suppression of attack power is secondary, mainly because the efficiency of these monsters directly attacking and cutting blood will be much higher.
Therefore, at that time, the characteristics of the competitive card deck were that there were many magic traps and many functional monsters with low attack power, which led to the destruction of the dead card deck virus in the early stage of the game king OCG This card is rarely used in the arena. It's like a person has a very powerful dragon slaying skill, but there are no evil dragons to kill in the world, which is very embarrassing. This changed dramatically after 2004, when the first super mainstream card set in OCG history, Chaos Control, appeared.
The core card dragon of the Chaos Deck and the Messengers of the Trail are monsters with an attack power of up to 3,000 points, and in that era of chaos for all the people, the Death Deck Destruction Virus has also ushered in its own stage of shine. Because the Death Deck virus is a perpetual effect after successful activation, if it is not invalidated when it is activated, then this card can cause a 100% three-turn sealing effect for the Chaos Deck, and the Chaos Deck will only be slaughtered within these three rounds. Without restriction, each player deck can put 3 Dead Deck Destruction Viruses in that time.
And in the process of using it, the card guys found that the Dead Deck Virus had a near-bug add-on effect in addition to the powerful effect of deck destruction. After the Death Deck Destruction Virus is successfully launched, we will check the opponent's hand during each opponent's card draw stage to destroy the monster with an attack power of more than 1500 points. In the process, the opponent's hand will be known to us. The so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other is invincible, which also makes the strategic value of this card go up to a new level.
So on September 1, 2004, K-club designated this card as a restricted card. After that, with the change of environment. Chaos cards are composed of tears of history, and King of Games entered the era of homophony in 2008. One of the characteristics of the early stage of the homologous white card is that there are basically no monsters below 4 stars, and the white card's high level naturally does not pull across, basically above the threshold of 1500 points, so at that time, the death card group destruction virus This card is almost fatal to the suppression of the homologous monster.
From the perspective of today, decades later, the virtue of K Society must be known to everyone, although in essence it is still because the death card deck destroys the virus itself is too strong to be a supermodel, but it is also indeed blocking the K Society's financial path of selling cards. So on September 1, 2009, this card was designated as a forbidden card and began to be locked up in the little black room. Later, on January 1, 2015, the effect was changed, and the K Society was given the identity of the restriction card for security reasons.
I have to say that the K Society's castration of the Death Card Deck destruction virus, this knife is indeed a bit too fierce. Although the core effect has not been changed, the additional 2 effects are very uncomfortable. 1 is that after the launch, the other party himself chooses 3 cards from the card to destroy, which is tantamount to sending the other party 3 stupid burials in vain. 2 is after the card is launched, until the end of the next turn, the total damage received by the opponent is 0, which is equivalent to blocking his own 2 turns.
After this change, the Dead Deck Destruction Virus can be said to be a complete abolition of this card. So on October 1, 2015, the card was again downgraded from the banned card table to a restricted card, and finally completely removed from the banned card table on April 1, 2016. From the once untimely birth, to the later glory, to the current no one cares, this card seems to tell us that gold will always shine, and it seems to say that the world's pampering is just a passing cloud. But it is gratifying that it has burned so violently and passionately.
