Unveiling the latest addition to Magic Madhouse's expansive inventory, the YGO Maze of Memories collection is a treasure trove for Yu-Gi-Oh enthusiasts. This dynamic release is set to captivate fans with its stunning array of new Gate Guardian cards, alongside a host of Collector's Rare cards and cherished themes from across the Yu-Gi-Oh universe. When a monster(s) would be Summoned, OR a Spell/Trap is activated: Pay half your LP; negate the Summon or activation, and if you do, destroy that card. If 2 or more cards are in the same column, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand) in that column. You can only Special Summon "Mekk-Knight Red Moon" once per turn this way. You can banish 1 "Mekk-Knight" monster from your GY, then target 1 face-up monster in this card's column; destroy it. Once per Chain, if a Link-4 monster is Link Summoned: You can place 1 counter on this card (max 3), then you can apply the following effect based on the number of counters on it.

If this card is Special Summoned: You can target 1 "Number" Xyz Monster in your GY, except "Number 39: Utopia Rising": Special Summon it in Defense Position, then you can detach all materials from this card and attach them to that monster. If you Xyz Summon (except during the Damage Step): You can Special Summon this card from your GY, but banish it when it leaves the field. You can only use each effect of "Number 39: Utopia Rising" once per turn. Maze of Memories artfully combines the best of classic and contemporary elements, offering a curated set of cards to transport you on a journey through time, from the iconic Duel Monsters era to the cutting-edge world of Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS. When a Level 5 or higher Effect Monster(s) is Special Summoned: Banish that Level 5 or higher Effect Monster(s). The crowning jewel of this enthralling collection is the introduction of the exciting new World Premier theme, showcasing a dazzling array of Fusion Monsters that ingeniously combine iconic characters in groundbreaking ways.Special Summon 1 of your "Infernity" monsters that is banished, or in your hand or GY. If a face-up "Infernity" monster(s) you control is destroyed by battle, or leaves the field because of an opponent's card effect, while this card is in your GY: You can Set this card. You can only use each effect of "This Creepy Little Punk" once per turn.

Overall I do think this is a solid set. There were some questionable choices, however. I do think making Wind-Up Kitten and 2 Rikka cards take up Ultra slots in this set was a weird choice. Also out of all the Photon cards to reprint and make a Collector’s Rare, I would of rather something like Number 90: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord or maybe even Number 38: Hope Harbringer Dragon Titanic Galaxy over Photon Orbital, but that’s fine. I also would of chose Spellbook of Judgment to be in here as a Collector’s Rare over Spellbok of Fate. The only card I feel should of been a Collector’s Rare that wasn’t was probably Ancient Fairy Dragon. With all that out of the way, all the new Gate Guardian support is super cool and the imported cards from the History Archive Collection are nice to finally have for competitive and casual players, alongside collectors. There are solid reprints in here like Baronne de Fleur, Guardian Chimera, Solemn Judgment, Mekk-Knight Crusadia Avramax, etc. Even the Wind-Up Kitten and Rikka stuff is good to reprint, even if the rarity choices feel like a miss. Also a few nice things that needed reprints like Kalut the Moon Shadow and Nimble Anger to name a few. Overall a solid set that will likely age well to similar success of sets like Toon Chaos and to a lesser extent currently King’s Court. Warrior, Beast, or Pyro: Once per turn, if you activate a Trap Card (except during the Damage Step): You can target 1 card your opponent controls; destroy it. You'll have another chance to smash the competition with one of the most powerful Synchro Monsters around - Baronne De Fleur!

The YGO Maze of Memories collection also breathes new life into classic strategies, adding a touch of ingenuity to your gameplay. The assortment of versatile cards and spell features ensures endless possibilities and thrilling combinations to keep you on your toes.
