The Infinite Forbidden - Set List (SPOILERS!!)
Releasing in July, The Infinite Forbidden is next in line for Yu-Gi-Oh!'s main sets and boy is it a big one! This set has a little bit of everything for everyone in, no matter if you're a competitive player or merely a collector. With the set having released in Japan at the back-end of April, we've gotten a glimpse of what to expect when The Infinite Forbidden hits UK shelves!
We can see that the folks over at Konami are still celebrating the 25th anniversary of this beloved TCG, with Quarter Century Secret Rares finding their way into booster packs left right and centre. That isn't stopping any time soon! A standout card from this set is Dragon of Pride and Soul; a Quarter Century Secret Rare that's so desirable it may as well be the One Ring! Centring itself around the number 25, this 2500/2500 monster can only be Special Summoned from your hand whilst your opponent has 25 or more cards in their graveyard. If you have 25 or more cards in your graveyard, this card gains 2500 ATK/DEF! What makes this card so sought-after is that you will only find it as a Quarter Century Secret Rare. So, you guessed it, its pretty rare!
Not only that, but The Infinite Forbidden includes a familiar face...if you were to assume that this set would include the one, the only, Exodia - then you'd be correct! The pack art is not just a gimmick, as within The Infinite Forbidden you can find "The Unstoppable Exodia Incarnate", a powerful card that can't be destroyed by your opponent's card effects and it can gain ATK equal to your current Life Points once per turn (if it battles, during damage calculation)! Not only that, but when a Spell/Trap card or effect is activated (Quick Effect) you can negate the activation. Oh you thought we were done? Oh no. Once per turn, during the End Phase, you can Set 1 "Exodo" Spell/Trap or 1 "Obliterate!!!" directly from your Deck! Wow, what a card. The only downside to this is you'll lose 1000 LP during your Standby Phase once per turn. But, to wield such a power would always come at a cost, so it's up to you whether you'd want to play this card and take the risk!
The Infinite Forbidden is available to pre-order now for £59.95 per booster box, so be sure to get your pre-orders secured in time for release! Check out the Japanese reveals down below, and keep your eyes peeled for the English cards to follow very soon...
