Yesterday, you saw the awesome new Captain Ginyu but there’s a little bit of story behind the image. In most cases, we’ll pull the images from the Dragon Ball Wiki page but there are occasions where we have to capture the image ourselves when we can’t find an appropriate (or appropriately cool) image. This was the case with Ginyu as Goku. There are a few images out there, but not many look to good. This turned into a case for us to do our own image capturing, but it soon became apparent why there were no good images out there: the episode has terrible animation quality for a good half of it, even the Dragon Ball Z Kai version. So we ended up finding a few good images (including the one used as the feature image for the story) that could work, and ultimately decided on the one you saw yesterday. But we did have another really good candidate that we ended up having to get some outside input on. We eventually turned the image down, but you might see it again in the future on another card. In the meantime, here’s a cool alt art image for Captain Ginyu Lv. 3.
And yes, it’s fully legal to play. Since we allow proxies, you are free to change the images around or make your own cards, so long as they don’t alter the text of the original card in any way. And any cards that need peripheral info, like Outburst Drill or Megaton Bull Crusher, will of course default to the original version (but if you play cards like that, it would be good etiquette to retain all the necessary info on the cards you are proxying).
That’s it for today, check back tomorrow when we reveal a new level one for a Ginyu Force member that already has two.
Later, BroZ!
I like this alternate version much better.
The first one, the name was slightly ill placed to me. Sure, it was a picture of Goku. But the above makes me feel like Krillin is asking it. “Goku?”
Now his power works for his allies in play as well as the ones you remove from your sensei deck?
Constant Combat Power means he has to be in control of combat. So a no go on the allies.
According to the CRD it would work that way Chris. Whether they will follow the games rules or not is up to them.
Ok, so I got both yes and no answers. That’s not confusing or anything. >.<
didier is correct.
Yes, Didier is correct. This is why Baba and Bojack have clauses to make their powers work when they are not in control of combat. Since Captain Ginyu cannot be in control while an ally is using their power, it would not be used twice.
I like that you’ll allow self made image proxies… I was just bitching in the card image page about that. Time to make me a cool lookin VQD 😀
