\"Yu-Gi-Oh<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Normally, Yu-Gi-Oh TCG card launch announcements are welcomed with great fanfare by the Yu-Gi-Oh TCG community. However, when Konami confirmed the upcoming drop of the Galaxy War Drake card to be released as a freebie that comes with the June 2024 edition of sh\u014dnen manga magazine V Jump, the fanbase’s reaction was clearly mixed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While many were, as expected, hyped about a new card’s release\u2014especially one which has never before been printed in the Yu-Gi-Oh TCG\u2014others were less than thrilled. The dissenters were unimpressed by the fact that the card was an extender rather than a starter; most Galaxy cards are already extenders. At the moment, very few Galaxy cards are starters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This card is classified as an extender because when Special Summoned, it increases its own Level as well as that of another controlled LIGHT monster to 8 until the end of the player’s turn. It’s not a starter because it can’t initiate any specific plays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, the controversy surrounding this Ultra Rare card might ultimately end up driving engagement and interest. After all, it isn’t often that a single-card release is talked about this much within the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The card’s illustration depicts the Galaxy War Drake in a combat-ready position in front of a cosmic background. The background not only alludes to the card’s name and archetype; from a visual perspective, it adds aesthetic contrast when paired with the metallic dragon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This card has no English release date planned; it’s unlikely that there will ever be one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As previously mentioned, the Galaxy War Drake card will come free with issues of the June 2024 issue of V Jump magazine. That issue will first be available on 19 April 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The retail price of a Galaxy War Drake (V Jump June 2024 Promotional Card VJMP-JP253) card isn’t yet known. Stay with us for more information.<\/p>\n\n\n
