I repeat what I said here:
When you take damage in Speed World II, your speed counters don't decrease. The only way to lose speed counters is through an effect.
Also he should have two speed counters, as you gain 1 Speed Counter during either player's Standby Phase, except for the first...
Exactly what I said. They're easily summonable level 7 monsters with floating effects, leading them to abuse the rank 7 Xyz engine during their reign. A good D ruler deck could spam out like, a big-eye and another monster while still having around 3 cards in the hand consistently. D ruler...
Tbh the only reason they were good is because the rank 7 pool is busted and they were the only deck able to take advantage of it, they don't function in the current era because they can't easily build up the resources for both link and Xyz plays, and archetypes have long since succeeded them in...
Oh god no. I have absolutely no desire to arbitrarily play decks for no reason. The only other idea I even considered was an entertainment duelist playing a mix of Majespecter and Mythical Beasts, focused on wowing the crowd more than he was about pure winning.
But playing a lil' shit is what I...
Really? I damn near insta-locked my choice.

Ah, I think you're confusing the two Speed Worlds. "Speed World" does, indeed, have a stipulation that, for every 1000 LP lost, you lose a speed counter. However, "Speed World 2" doesn't actually have that on it, in favor of just giving you the 3 other effects it holds.
There isn't any real documentation on their manga protection, but the wiki lists a whole lot of stuff for the original trio from both the manga and the anime. You can just pick n'd choose, I guess.
Speaking of which, we really need some kind of progress on the IC since uh, well, we can't really do much currently. Already showed each character preparing, we just need to get the plot to move in any kind of direction so we know what to do from there.
