We're starting to put things together, but this isn't over. The next chapter leads Ecclesia and Albaz to deal with the Despians... and the return of old friend.
2:07 It is kinda funny how TCG eventually translated it as "Branded" as in "they are the branded". And if people want, they can still call "the special brand that gives power" as "the Stigmata". As in "Branded with the Stigmata"
Its kinda funny following card lore. Makes me wonder the card design process lol. Card designer, "I have a card design that can change the meta!" Boss bro, "Whats the lore behind it?"
"I'm gonna need the design document for how this archetype works by next week, as well as a 5 page essay on how the characters and mechanics fit into the larger story, and so HELP ME RA, if your sources are not MLA formatted, I will have your Card Design License revoked!"
I’m really liking the lore of the Dogmatika and the other cards associated with them. I can’t wait to see what happens next when more cards are available for the story to reach its conclusion. Keep up the good work and awesome video.
Since we won't see a new archetype from this story for a while, I tried to see if I could combine the current ones into a single deck, this usually results in complete garbage, like when I tried to put Zefra w/ the cards mentioned on the monsters, or World Legacy archetypes. With WL, it can work if you take out 2 archetypes, even then it's rough. But with these? They ALL work, and they're pretty good. Most archetypes only need 1-2 cards in your hand, with luck you can even get 3 of the deck's game plan going in a single turn. I even fit the archserpent in there, you go slightly over 40 cards, but I expected to stretch 60. Ironically the weakest link is definitley Albaz. He's a huge target for negation, the fusion requirments are less versatile than you'd think, especially for Stigmata dragon, and the traps are super lackluster for doing what he's supposed to do. There is a card which brings him out and perfectly sets up his ability, unfortunatley it's Nadir servant which locks his fusions. It's a real shame how they seemed to future-proof Albaz from power creep with all the restrictions but it just makes him not work in his OWN story. Maybe they'll justify him w/ cards based on his origin, or retrain him to superpoly without discard; Gotten-up of Albaz.
"Gotten-Up Of Albaz", I'm howling xD Yeah, I really REALLY hope that this acts as a good setup arc so far, and we'll get more development for all the themes involved, both narratively and mechanically.
I'm looking forward to the Dogmatika Quick-Play spell that lets you redirect the target of an opposing monster's effect, so Eccelsia can sacrifice herself to force Dracrown to target her, banishing himself in the process.
Another amazing lore video. You have a pretty great narration voice. I didn’t even think about Dracrown being a part of the story, or notice the Abyss markings on Golgonda or Albaz Knight. Then again, I’m not nearly as analytical as you are, so that’s honestly to be expected.
Oh okay, cool so the term Branded as an archetype is referencing that they're actually branded with a mark, a stigmata as it's called. , I never thought of that but now the name makes sense. Thanks Nova, very much appreciated.
One thing I find kinda interesting is that Dogmatika is an Archetype that hates on the extra deck and both other archetypes, Tri-Brigade and Sprigguns, cheat stuff out of the Extra Deck. Wondering if the next Theme will cheat Synchros...
My theory is that the archetype is 3 tuners and 3 Synchros with the following effects: Tuner: once per turn, send this card to the GY and if you do banish one non-tuner monster from your GY, Special Summon a Synchro monster who's level is equal to combine levels of its materials. Synchro: if this this Synchro Summoned card is destroyed by battle or card effects, target 1 "archetype name" tuner from your GY to your hand and 1 of your banished non-tuner monster back to the GY.
Albaz was a type of entity that was trying to destroy Dogmatika kingdom and his cult (Nadir servant) and then, with his first transformation (Titaniklad the Ash Dragon), was defeat by Fleurdelis (Dogmatika Punishment). There's a lack of how Ecclesia enter in this history but, i think she try to help Albaz with something after the fight, be injuried by that and helped back by Albaz, that was trying to escape with her in his arms (Brigrand the Glory Dragon). In the same fight against the Dogmatikas, the Tri-Brigade guys enter in the fight and helps Ecclesia, now a deserter and Albaz, to escape from the city. Out of the city with the help of the Tri-Brigade, Albaz and Ecclesia try to enter in the Great Sand Sea - Gold Golgonda (i don't know why, maybe trying to find the whereabouts of Tri-Brigade Kitt) and already in, watched by the Springans (Springans Watch), being all kidnaped by the Springans machines (Tri-Brigade Rendezvous). After all the mistakes, Tri-Brigade Kitt and Springans accept to help Ecclesia and Albaz but first, he needs to defeat the first opponent (A random ship that is annoing in the Great Sand Sea - Gold Golgonda). After that, we know a new opponent (Springans Call!) and being fighted in (Springans Blast!), that is being released in the LIOV new box. After Ecclesia being deserter, the Dogmatika cult choose a new person to hold the Dogmatika way of things (Dogmatika Genesis).
I wonder if this story is tied to the dracoslayer story, given that it also seems to have tangential relation to duel terminal and a theme of dimensional incursion and dragon magic and the like.
Thank you for analyzing this archetype. As well as continuing to tell us this engaging story. But out of curiosity do you ever plan to basically do reviews and talk about the other card storylines? I'm the most curious about the duel terminal storyline especially with how they're new support fits into the storyline.
At first, I only planned to do Lore videos on archetypes just coming out. My reasoning was, other card story lines have been out for more than a decade, and many people have already talked about them over time. There's even a lot of canon information in the Master Guides, so there isn't a lot of meaningful speculation I could do, a lot of it has more or less been solved. But I've been asked by many people to do more Lore stuff/if I would cover more Lore stuff, which is very flattering. I may cover them some time in the future, but I'd like to find something I can bring to the table before I commit. Sorry for the wishy-washy answer, and I hope it doesn't come off as complaining! Every time I hear that people want to hear me cover Lore, I'm very glad people wish to see me do it more! I just want to make sure that, when I do it, I do it right, and it can be something that hasn't been (largely) done before. Thank you for the comment!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh No problem dude I can completely understand. I guess the last thing I'll say is And I meant to say this on one of your other videos that I commented on I actually happen to be a inspiring voice actor I thought I should bring this up because I actually have done a voice acted for Maximus and Albaz before.
Honestly, thee only thing that comes to mind each time I hear "dark purple/black holes in the sky" is VFD, Dimensional Fissure, and the Void where he was sent to (Shadow Realm? Just kidding), and each time I see those consecutively chained diamond markings are the Qlis, and those two are kind of historically linked because of the war. As for the Dragon/s (potentially sealed within the Nexus), I have no idea, as of now. Also, speaking of Dragons, I don't know if it's just me but I find it weird that Dragon Rulers didn't have LIGHT and DARK attributed monsters. I don't know if it's a decision made purely based on game balance or what but yeah, just saying. As for my theory about the Link between the Fallen of Albaz and Aleister the Invoker, we still don't really know where exactly Aleister tapped the magic that he used, and seeing the scarlet tinge of Albion and the Stigmata of White, first thing I thought of was Magical Meltdown. But, I will assume that it was not a bright place, considering the first form he assumed was of a beastly figure in Caliga, and lots of fire and fiendish theme, with the exceptions of Mechaba, Elysium, and Augoeides which are all LIGHT monsters. If there's some thing(s) that reminds me of Fiends, Fires, and the Duel Terminal War, it's the Infernoids.
I've seen a couple comments about the music but in the bit where you were talking about albaz' transformation into the big magma dragon via resolve, I heard the main opening theme from tales of the abyss anime/game. maybe it's a theme from a few places.
Wait a second. I've just come towards a revelation. True King of All Calamities has spicy plot armor. Maybe. Just maybe. It's a bit of a long shot but I can propose a theory. I think the behemoth that we have faced countless times throughout playing yugioh for the past cuple of years will end with all Archetypes that have combatted against the Vanisher, Fathomer, and Disaster will strike the final blow to VFD. Blazing Vortex should be able to confirm this since we have cards like Metalfoes Vanisher which is a call back to Agnimazud, the Vanisher. Then in the future sets we could have cards like Zoodiac Disaster and Crystron Fathomer to tie up the references. After the remaining archetypes get there support we should see the end of the big bad dragon himself. We can already see the first strike being executed by none other than Metalfoes Vanisher noted by the accentuated beam of red light emmitting out of VFD. The other beams of green and blue light don't seem as more highlighted other than the red one. Hopefully after this story line is over and done with people will not have to worry about VFD anymore.
I touched on this in foeller13's comment, but you bring up another good point that I wanted to touch on. I don't really see the Stigmata, but I do see that diamond shaped crest on it's chest. However, I don't think it's related to the Hole. We've only seen that diamond shape in the story two times: Either as an active Hole, or as the second, diamond shaped insignia you can see on a lot of Dogmatika clothing/artifacts (it looks like a stylized representation of two hands clasped in prayer, and probably a subtle hint at Maximus's control of the Hole), and the crest on Bahartiya doesn't really fit into either. New information may come to light that disputes this, but for now, I don't think it's part of the story.
@@GoldenNovaYugioh You are probably right. Most of my friends think it’s just a trend started by phantazmei. Being level 7 dragons. Now we have Phantazmei, Miradora and now Bahartiya
@@endofuwu2146 That makes sense! I hadn't thought about it until you brought it up, but we do have kind of a cycle of Level 7 Dragon Handtraps, and that's pretty neat!
Good catch! Yeah, I needed something triumphant, and meaning of birth fit the bill. I WANTED to have the lead up be the piano version, but I couldn't get the two to mix without it being super jarring xD
Baharitya is probably part of the lore too! And probably who Albaz fused with. It's a light Dragon and in the artwork you can actually see the city of Dogmatika!
I can see what you mean, but personally, I'm not sure they're connected to the story. Check out 'End of Uwu' and 'foeller13's comments, I go more in depth with it there!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh my own theory would just be that Bahartiya is what Albaz fused with; the horns of Bahartiya and Albion have a slight resemblance, their color is a little similar by looking like the Sun. Albion also has a necklace that is extremely similar to the ornaments surrounding Bahartiya. Bahartiya is also surrounded by a lot of clouds that are similar to Dogmatika Nation's, or it could just be a storm. The town in Bahartiya's art is very similar to Dogmatika Nation if you just change the point of view and make it more dark, my opinion being that Bahartiya might be related to Nexus, or perhaps it's a creature summoned by the Dogmatika. As I said, it is just a theory but I don't feel like we should reject it, there are similarities in design that I find odd
I realize this question is asked often, but it deserves repeating: Why is this kind of thing not the subject of television and movies? Why are we getting reboots, prequels, remakes, and message peddling propaganda when this is an original and pretty damned awesome story all on its own?! I'd watch or read stories about just the Albaz lore in a heartbeat! And given how many archetypes there are in the Yu-Gi-Oh game, I'm pretty sure a seasonal anthology series could work.
At 12:16 you hear a really upbeat theme can't remember what track it is but I remember it playing when I met this really flamboyant merchant in the volcano on the first disk I'll try to find the right tracks then post the names for you.
@@kami6374 th-cam.com/video/FzXuyzrMxow/w-d-xo.html The upbeat theme is riding on positive rhythm you should be able to find the rest I'm pretty sure I heard Lloyd's theme in one video
I think the new saint means we'll see another Level 1 Dogmatika a few sets to go. Dogmatika Albaria, the Newborn would be an amazing name for it (just my guesswork lol). Based on previous Duel Terminal storylines, I'm confident that this child possesses a way to finally stop the conflict, under the conditions of sacrificing herself.
It's funny how I only remember Dracrown exists because of this video, and the pretty reasonable speculative breakdown of how he should be part of the Albaz lore. As it turns own, Dracrown wasn't tied into anything and was just a worthless card with bafflingly effects, to the point where we reasoned there must be a thematic reason it sucks so bad. Maybe Konami thought Albaz would be Tier 0, and this would be a good counter... before they caved and gave Albaz a deck fusion.
Holy moley. Here in Texas these stigmata cards are known as branded cards. Albion is known as Albion the branded dragon. So in theory this is albazes purest form aka the form that he took when he fell from the sky!
My theory is that Albaz and Ecclessia will continue to be aided by, and help various factions, while being pursued by the church. Ending the entire story line with all said factions returning and helping them out against the Church in the end. Albaz will get a GOD Neos type Fusion summon with all the different factions resulting in an INSANE monster that’s nearly impossible to summon, like a Link-6 monster
The lore in this game is so much like MTG. But then again, Yugioh was inspired by it. Which makes sense. Both games share similar traits, and both target the same demographic. Yes, in Japan, the Yugioh OCG is for the same age demographic as MTG. On the back of every Yugioh OCG pack, deck, box set and etc, all say “対象年齢12才以上” (Translation: “Target age 12 years and older”) While MTG says “13 and up”, “12 and up” is not that different as it still implies that the target demographic is early teenage or older. So it’s still a teen demographic. Which explains the game’s complexity and violent and sexual content in the OCG’s artwork in some cards.
I love how Dogmatika Albaz Knight is a 4-armed monstrosity of void power twisting and tarnishing the beliefs of religious extremists zealots, but still, it's Light attribute. That's splendid.
Hopefully! My plan is to do Explaineds of the LIOV archetypes, then do an Explained Expanded, going all the support in LIOV for previous themes in one video, then am Explained on all the free agent cards. But this is subject to change as stuff is revealed/life stuff happens.
Is Bahartiya, Skypiercer of the Light not part of this? I think the dogmatika city is in the back ground on the art yugipedia.com/wiki/Bahartiya,_Skypiercer_of_the_Light
I had never considered it, so I pulled up the cropped images to see if I could find some connection. As of now, I don't think there's enough to establish it as part of canon. It is hovering over a city scape, but comparing it to "Dogmatika Nation", I don't feel like they match up. The church is on top of a giant hill, with nothing else coming close, but the city in Bahartiya has buildings that are a lot closer. The architecture is also different, and the main building is missing that distinctive ornament the church has. It could just be that this is a different part of the Dogmatika city, but as of yet, we don't have any strong pieces of evidence to confirm it as of yet.

Maximus: *I shall give you Dispair*
Edit: Noooooo, not Fleur-De-Lis. She did nothing wrong!
Fleirdelis is a GOOD KNIGHT under BAD MANAGEMENT!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh and if you look the card closely, despite being surrounded by DARK Dragon parts, she is still a LIGHT Spellcaster.
I think mysterium was the figure in the card with the lightning
2:07 It is kinda funny how TCG eventually translated it as "Branded" as in "they are the branded". And if people want, they can still call "the special brand that gives power" as "the Stigmata". As in "Branded with the Stigmata"
Its kinda funny following card lore. Makes me wonder the card design process lol.
Card designer, "I have a card design that can change the meta!"

NOOOO! Not fluer! I hope theres a way to return her to normal.
I love this archetype lore so much. People are sleeping on it imo
Yeah, it seems weird? There's so much cool stuff to uncover, I wish more people would cover it.
12:50 There is something both morbid and endearing about Ecclesia jovially lifting the slaughtered skull of an ancient mythical creature like that...
You love to see it folks. The Monster Hunter energy here is strong!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh And now she's actually using the skull as a legit Monster Hunter warhammer. I love it so much.
It's so good!
I’m really liking the lore of the Dogmatika and the other cards associated with them. I can’t wait to see what happens next when more cards are available for the story to reach its conclusion. Keep up the good work and awesome video.
Thank you, and I sure will! I'm super excited to see how this goes, I'm sure it'll be wild!
12:04 I have 2 possible theories.
1: it's Albus de-transforming
2: or hint to our Synchro archetype
Hmm, hadn't considered that. The Synchro Angle would be pretty cool!
Since we won't see a new archetype from this story for a while, I tried to see if I could combine the current ones into a single deck, this usually results in complete garbage, like when I tried to put Zefra w/ the cards mentioned on the monsters, or World Legacy archetypes.

In everyone's defense, the image quality of the cards can sometimes be pretty bad xD
Dude the Dark Cloud music at the start of the lore got me so nostalgic
Oh okay, cool so the term Branded as an archetype is referencing that they're actually branded with a mark, a stigmata as it's called. , I never thought of that but now the name makes sense. Thanks Nova, very much appreciated.
One thing I find kinda interesting is that Dogmatika is an Archetype that hates on the extra deck and both other archetypes, Tri-Brigade and Sprigguns, cheat stuff out of the Extra Deck.
Wondering if the next Theme will cheat Synchros...
My theory is that the archetype is 3 tuners and 3 Synchros with the following effects:
Tuner: once per turn, send this card to the GY and if you do banish one non-tuner monster from your GY, Special Summon a Synchro monster who's level is equal to combine levels of its materials.
Synchro: if this this Synchro Summoned card is destroyed by battle or card effects, target 1 "archetype name" tuner from your GY to your hand and 1 of your banished non-tuner monster back to the GY.
Yeah, I'm actually surprised we got this Stigmata stuff instead of Synchro. Really throws off the cycle.
This Theron was on point with the new support now here
Albaz was a type of entity that was trying to destroy Dogmatika kingdom and his cult (Nadir servant) and then, with his first transformation (Titaniklad the Ash Dragon), was defeat by Fleurdelis (Dogmatika Punishment).
There's a lack of how Ecclesia enter in this history but, i think she try to help Albaz with something after the fight, be injuried by that and helped back by Albaz, that was trying to escape with her in his arms (Brigrand the Glory Dragon).
In the same fight against the Dogmatikas, the Tri-Brigade guys enter in the fight and helps Ecclesia, now a deserter and Albaz, to escape from the city.
Out of the city with the help of the Tri-Brigade, Albaz and Ecclesia try to enter in the Great Sand Sea - Gold Golgonda (i don't know why, maybe trying to find the whereabouts of Tri-Brigade Kitt) and already in, watched by the Springans (Springans Watch), being all kidnaped by the Springans machines (Tri-Brigade Rendezvous).
After all the mistakes, Tri-Brigade Kitt and Springans accept to help Ecclesia and Albaz but first, he needs to defeat the first opponent (A random ship that is annoing in the Great Sand Sea - Gold Golgonda).
After that, we know a new opponent (Springans Call!) and being fighted in (Springans Blast!), that is being released in the LIOV new box. After Ecclesia being deserter, the Dogmatika cult choose a new person to hold the Dogmatika way of things (Dogmatika Genesis).
I appreciate the dark cloud music for albaz and ecclesia's story section. Great work on research as always!
Goosebumps cause Tales of the Abyss is my favourite game and I see what you did there. Huge props
Cool can’t wait. This is gonna be a good way to start the year.
Heck yeah! I hope you enjoy!
I'm REALLY liking the lore we have here. I feel bad for the knight tho (I'm gonna spell the name cause that there is hard)
Yeah, what'd Fleurdelis ever do to Maximus, huh!?
@@GoldenNovaYugioh idk but he will pay for what he did to her
It's mad that Albaz and Tri-Brigade are the good guys. I always assumed Albaz was the evil one and the Dogmatika were the good holy guys.

New information may come to light that disputes this, but for now, I don't think it's part of the story.
@@GoldenNovaYugioh You are probably right. Most of my friends think it’s just a trend started by phantazmei. Being level 7 dragons. Now we have Phantazmei, Miradora and now Bahartiya
@@endofuwu2146 That makes sense! I hadn't thought about it until you brought it up, but we do have kind of a cycle of Level 7 Dragon Handtraps, and that's pretty neat!
Nice use of the Tales of the Abyss OST
Good catch! Yeah, I needed something triumphant, and meaning of birth fit the bill.
I WANTED to have the lead up be the piano version, but I couldn't get the two to mix without it being super jarring xD
Surprised no mention of World Legacy lore related to booster set cliffhanger like with Kozmo's lore and Duel Terminal's lore
i like that you use the opening of dark cloud 2 in the dogamtika lore section
13:05 Is... Is that Eldlich the Golden Lord? At the very least, it looks like its made in his image.
Damn that Duelist of the Roses OST hit me hard 😭 love the videos good shit my dude
Thanks, I'm glad you like! I love using the YGO game music, it's so iconic.
Ngl merry maker's missile launcher art has faces on the missiles and they remind me of Sex Pistols from Jojos
MIIIIIIIISTAAAAAAAAA!!!
But it’s a rank FOUR!
Haha nice job with the Tales game intro song from Bump of Chicken
Shout out to the perfect use of Tales of the Abyss soundtrack.
Your content is great 👍🏾 enjoying it so well
I'm glad you're enjoying them, and thank you for watching!
Now I just want a Fallen of Albaz anime.
Baharitya is probably part of the lore too! And probably who Albaz fused with. It's a light Dragon and in the artwork you can actually see the city of Dogmatika!
I can see what you mean, but personally, I'm not sure they're connected to the story. Check out 'End of Uwu' and 'foeller13's comments, I go more in depth with it there!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh my own theory would just be that Bahartiya is what Albaz fused with; the horns of Bahartiya and Albion have a slight resemblance, their color is a little similar by looking like the Sun. Albion also has a necklace that is extremely similar to the ornaments surrounding Bahartiya. Bahartiya is also surrounded by a lot of clouds that are similar to Dogmatika Nation's, or it could just be a storm. The town in Bahartiya's art is very similar to Dogmatika Nation if you just change the point of view and make it more dark, my opinion being that Bahartiya might be related to Nexus, or perhaps it's a creature summoned by the Dogmatika. As I said, it is just a theory but I don't feel like we should reject it, there are similarities in design that I find odd
Loving the Dark Cloud music.
Very good video as always, and the story looks like its gearing up for a final showdow with Big Boys on both sides
Some kind of...Ultimate Showdown. To fulfill their Ultimate Destiny...
Legend of Dragoon ost ?
I see you are a man of culture!
I had chills watching this. I need to find out more!
I hope you'll like the rest of 'em!
The Tales of the Abyss OST when Albaz had his pogchamp moment is a little too fitting.
I realize this question is asked often, but it deserves repeating: Why is this kind of thing not the subject of television and movies? Why are we getting reboots, prequels, remakes, and message peddling propaganda when this is an original and pretty damned awesome story all on its own?! I'd watch or read stories about just the Albaz lore in a heartbeat! And given how many archetypes there are in the Yu-Gi-Oh game, I'm pretty sure a seasonal anthology series could work.
Nice video and I notice the tales of abyss opening theme song 😁😁😁
first saw your tri-brigade lore video found myself here again, so heres a sub and like keep it up
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the story telling!
Love the legend of dragoon music for these videos it fits really well.
does anyone know what track that is?
At 12:16 you hear a really upbeat theme can't remember what track it is but I remember it playing when I met this really flamboyant merchant in the volcano on the first disk I'll try to find the right tracks then post the names for you.
@@kami6374 th-cam.com/video/FzXuyzrMxow/w-d-xo.html
The upbeat theme is riding on positive rhythm you should be able to find the rest I'm pretty sure I heard Lloyd's theme in one video
@@doomsandmore I thought you were talking about another track. There is another track that he uses that I kinda liked and wanted to kkjow the name of
I think the new saint means we'll see another Level 1 Dogmatika a few sets to go. Dogmatika Albaria, the Newborn would be an amazing name for it (just my guesswork lol). Based on previous Duel Terminal storylines, I'm confident that this child possesses a way to finally stop the conflict, under the conditions of sacrificing herself.
The background music is on point
Hope more is coming with the new cards released!! Waiting patiently!
Hold out just a little longer! Despia, Lore And More Explained should be hitting your Subscription Feed this Friday!
Yaaas! Amazing can’t wait
bro wtf the legend of dragoon music at the end :') legendairy
Literally cannot wait so hype for this!
The energy in here is absolutely electric!
...
...cause of the...Lighthing....Overdrive....I'll go.
Playing "Meaning of Birth" during Albaz's transformation gave me chills.
Glad to hear! Something just clicked and I KNEW I had to use it!
THANKS for reminding me of the title!
XD
As soon as I heard it, I knew it was dark cloud music.
Love the Use of Meaning of Birth from Tales of the Abyss
Now we know Albaz knight is just Fluer armor.
I AM HERE for the music
that tales of abyss song hype me up lmao
I can't wait for the Dawn of Majesty video
You won't have to worry about that for much longer! Should be coming out this Friday!
That legend of dragoon st though 🔥
So after DAMA it seems like the one that did the lightning was actually Iris Swordsoul AKA Fleur without armour
This is top quality content
It's funny how I only remember Dracrown exists because of this video, and the pretty reasonable speculative breakdown of how he should be part of the Albaz lore. As it turns own, Dracrown wasn't tied into anything and was just a worthless card with bafflingly effects, to the point where we reasoned there must be a thematic reason it sucks so bad.
Maybe Konami thought Albaz would be Tier 0, and this would be a good counter... before they caved and gave Albaz a deck fusion.
I want to hear about all these stories now!
Same here! It's time we Area 51'd the YGO Lore Vaults, they can't stop all of us!
Is that an orchestral instrumental of Bump of Chicken?
Has to be My second favorit story after the world legacy one
World Legacy IS pretty cool. Bravely Default + Xenoblade is a fun combination!
Holy moley. Here in Texas these stigmata cards are known as branded cards. Albion is known as Albion the branded dragon. So in theory this is albazes purest form aka the form that he took when he fell from the sky!
When can we expect the next episode? The new stigmatika cards are out and i just can’t wait :D
I'm looking to get a Despia episode released on 4/23!
Also this would make a great anime setting or a great D&D setting
1:30 in the morning air date for UK gang 😭
Oh no, I'm so sorry! I hate time zone shenannigand.
My theory is that Albaz and Ecclessia will continue to be aided by, and help various factions, while being pursued by the church.
Ending the entire story line with all said factions returning and helping them out against the Church in the end. Albaz will get a GOD Neos type Fusion summon with all the different factions resulting in an INSANE monster that’s nearly impossible to summon, like a Link-6 monster
Or a fusion that requires many different types of monsters (machine, beast, dragon, spell caster etc)
Ooooo yeah, like some kind of Tierra ridiculousness! That would fit with the trend.
Supreme archserpent golgonda is a snake rain target
Oh...
shoot...
that could end up being a problem xD
Damn those tales of the abyss ost gave goosubump to me
The lore in this game is so much like MTG. But then again, Yugioh was inspired by it. Which makes sense. Both games share similar traits, and both target the same demographic. Yes, in Japan, the Yugioh OCG is for the same age demographic as MTG.
On the back of every Yugioh OCG pack, deck, box set and etc, all say “対象年齢12才以上”
(Translation: “Target age 12 years and older”)
While MTG says “13 and up”, “12 and up” is not that different as it still implies that the target demographic is early teenage or older. So it’s still a teen demographic. Which explains the game’s complexity and violent and sexual content in the OCG’s artwork in some cards.
If you thinking I dont wreckongnize the music at 12 30 you wrong lol
Funny thing, stigmata irl are actually the injuries suffered from being crucified and much like christ they are on maximus' hands.
We have reached our first epic souls like boss a really big snake
i would so toally watch this anime. it's so interesting and sick
I love how Dogmatika Albaz Knight is a 4-armed monstrosity of void power twisting and tarnishing the beliefs of religious extremists zealots, but still, it's Light attribute. That's splendid.
Don't think I didn't notice that Dot Hack music
I love finding story behind yugioh cards
Same here! I hope this did a good job of scratching that itch!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh i will always support you, no matter what happen. always with love
dogmatika if you just take the first 3 letters and reverse them what do you get?
Are you going to look at the new security force cards?
Hopefully! My plan is to do Explaineds of the LIOV archetypes, then do an Explained Expanded, going all the support in LIOV for previous themes in one video, then am Explained on all the free agent cards. But this is subject to change as stuff is revealed/life stuff happens.
The Japanese translation for Fallen of Albaz's name is Illegitimate Child of Albaz.
I came here after building Dogmatika deck in Master Duel
Surprized that White Knighted of Dogmatika other name is Dogmatika Albaz Knight
Ecclesia being a devoted amogus 13:44
Is Bahartiya, Skypiercer of the Light not part of this? I think the dogmatika city is in the back ground on the art yugipedia.com/wiki/Bahartiya,_Skypiercer_of_the_Light
I had never considered it, so I pulled up the cropped images to see if I could find some connection. As of now, I don't think there's enough to establish it as part of canon. It is hovering over a city scape, but comparing it to "Dogmatika Nation", I don't feel like they match up. The church is on top of a giant hill, with nothing else coming close, but the city in Bahartiya has buildings that are a lot closer. The architecture is also different, and the main building is missing that distinctive ornament the church has.
It could just be that this is a different part of the Dogmatika city, but as of yet, we don't have any strong pieces of evidence to confirm it as of yet.
Ritual monsters aren't extra deck monsters so titanklad would stop its effect
I knew that this is Yu-Gi-Oh version of Dark Souls and maximus is basically Sullivan from Dark Souls 3.
Gifting artifacts to trusted vassals, them turning into corrupted beasts...yeah, it checks out!
OK yea this is yugiohs version of heavensward 100% no doubt about it maximus straight up turned fleur into one of the 12 heavensward holy knights
that tales theme song
I think this needs to be a Anime
Tri-Brigade Kitt is kinda cute, ngl
5:51 Destory one monster. lol
So... they translated Stigmata into Branded
