Royal Oppression - The random cards it can negate

Royal Oppression: Pay 800 LP and stop a special summon or a card that involves special summoning.

Most people know what it can negate: Monster Reborn, DAD, JD, etc.

And what it cannot negate(in the long run): Vayu, Treeborn Frog, recruiters, etc.

You know, the important cards.

But what about unimportant cards? Cards included in the deck to achieve something else?

You might want to take these cards into account before using Oppression.


Macro Cosmos: It does say it special summons Helios right?

Forgotten Water Temple: Although its effect is more or less ignored by most people, it does include a special summoning clause, so it can be negated.

Starlight Road:

Opponent: Your trying to storm my Oppression and two other face downs? I STARLIGHT ROAD!

Me: Ok. I pay 800.


Take note that Oppression can be used by your opponent. While most decklists get around this by not special summoning at all, some minor cards that are teched sometimes get messed up by this.

Thats all for today.
