prevent cards from working
Has anyone else been having bugs where some card effects will not work? like suddenly in a duel it would not let me special summon Exodia the legendary incarnate, even though I met the criteria and checked the board and graveyard for effect that should prevent my summon and there was none. Is this some new bug? how often should I expect it to happen?

And how exactly did you try to special summon The Legendary Exodia Incarnate? Effects don't go off cause you either missed timing or you didn't meet requirements, rarely will there ever be an instance of a bug. If it's a bug you need proof

It'd be the best to have at least some kind of replay or screenshot to see what happened.

the only requirement is to sacrifice a piece of exodia on the field, very simple stuff and it would not work. I did not take a screen shot but I will remember to if it happens again. I actually lost the duel, I was gonna get exodia very shortly and win, but then when I summon the piece of exodia and could not summon the incarnate, then i had no way of getting it back to my hand so i was just dead ahaha.

so from at least these two comments it seems the bug is very rare, which is nice, and pretty much all I cared about ahaha

I sometimes run into issues like this, ive started paying more attention to my plays and have found that i either miss timing, i lock myself out of special summons or in most cases find that i actually havent met the requirements, either way try to save the reply if it happens again, if you do believe its a bug you can send konomi a ticket as well as a reply and they will tell you 100% what it was.

From the comments, they were stating you did something wrong or there was something in the game state, not that there was a bug.

I have been playing around with the a few variations of the deck I have and it has not happened since, so who knows, maybe it was an enemy effect, I swear I looked over their cards multiple times ahaha

No need for the tone. Proof comes in all shape and sizes. Description of a bug if OP believes they come across one is also proof. To deny a method to lead to that proof all because it doesn't show a bigger picture so OP have to use screen shot or a video to show proof is rather misguided. Jumping straight to fault than a possible bug doesn't help the situation its best to think in all possible ways before faulting OP discovery.

I've came across one player who use this on me weeks ago. I've check their deck to find no forbidden ones in the names of each card in a 15 or 20 card deck. They did have 3 Exodia the legendary incarnate cards in their deck with light monsters. My guess is the description is wrong with that card and haven't been fix. Card effects were being display correctly like the real Exodia deck that came before this one showing the forbidden pieces of each Exodia to me before it was summon to end the match.

Typos are not bugs but I can't explained why any card can be use with Exodia the legendary incarnate cards. It might be a visual bug that is rare for players to encounter and those are the ones often get denied to exist.

There is no tone, also wrong. They need proof because it isn't a bug and usually and has been just them not looking at something, even if they looked at everything closely there is still always something that they looked over. They aren't being descriptive, they said they looked at everything and that's it, they didn't describe the situation at all they didn't say everything on the field and in the GY they didn't say what's been played, we have no evidence that this is a bug other than the OP's word. If they have proof it's a bug they need to show it otherwise it isn't a bug because just like every other time this has happened it's cause of something they overlooked

I have to agree on that there is tone. Proof is a confrontational word, we here don't try to prove that people are wrong but rather find out the situation cause we know that there is no bug actually.

Asking for proof means I want to be proven wrong, that this is a bug, that's what they are claiming. Why do you think I said "If it's a bug you need proof", because they made the claim it's a bug and I doubt it is so they have to show proof, this is all in reference to them making 100% certainty this was a bug

There is no tone behind it it's basic reasoning and understanding of claims

I agree. That being said, 99% of the time a card effect is missed which causes said "bug".

Fair, in this community "pics or it didn't happen" isn't just a meme.

I can answer this piece for you, exodia cards are added to your deck by Yugi Muto's ability Grandpa's Cards, so by looking through someones deck you would not find any cards other then legendary incarnate with the name
