The title carries the name of the popular anime franchise Yu-Gi-Oh but takes some creative liberty with the stories it tells. His Spell Cards focus on increasing the ATK of his monsters and his Trap Cards deal with negating harmful moves dealt by his opponent.Released in September 2001 by Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses is a strategy card game published and developed by Konami. Seto plays a Deck mainly based on Seto Kaiba's containing many of his cards from the Duelist Kingdom arc. Afterwards, Seto apologizes for the trouble he put the Rose Duelist through, giving the duelist a pendant, saying to show to his descendants in his/her time if they are in trouble, pledging his family's loyalty to the powerful duelist before reversing the spell and sending the Duelist home. The Duelist then defeats Manawyddan fab Llyr in a duel. Seto then uses the Red Rose cards that the duelist obtains to complete the summoning, but only to accidentally summon Manawyddan fab Llyr.
After the duelist defeats Henry Tudor (Yugi), the Yorkists emerge victorious and Seto congratulates the duelist on his victory. Seto tells the duelist he wishes he could join him in acquiring the Red Rose cards off the Lancastrians, but he is needed to maintain their defenses. Players can obtain the card " Moisture Creature", using the find ability on D4, while playing against Seto. So regardless of his loss Seto was able to Summon the Rose Guardian, Manawyddan fab Llyr, who then dueled the player. A high powered duel involving the Rose Duelist, while all 16 Rose cards were at this location, was the Ritual. He came to England and joined the Yorkists, knowing that the Lancastrians would resort to asking the high druid to summon the only duelist with power equal to his. He needed the Rose Duelist to perform the Great Summoning. He explains that he had planned all this from the start. Thanks to the duelist he could now complete the ritual for the Great Summoning of the Roses. But then Seto proclaims, it would take a fool to believe that, that he was truly defeated. Henry Tudor thanks the duelist and asks him to duel Seto at Stonehenge to finally end his evil threat.Īfter losing Seto says that it was a duel to remember and that he is proud to have fallen at that duelists hands. On August 22nd, 1485, the final battle of the "Wars of the Roses" takes place and the Lancastrians emerge victorious. Seto is disappointed, but respects their decision. The player is then left to decide which side to join. Seto tells the duelist that they need 16 Rose Cards to return to their time and both sides have 8 cards, so they may side with either the Red Roses, the Lancastrians or the White Roses, the Yorkists. With defeat likely for the Lancastrians, Margaret Mai Beaufort requested a high druid, Simon McMooran, to summon a duelist from another age.Īfter Simon summons a duelist, (the player) Seto interrupts and begins to argue with Simon. Seto almost had the Lancastrians at the mercy of the Yorkists. Seto and his 7 followers, the Rose Crusaders served Pegasus Crawford, a powerful Yorkist nobleman. 1.1 If the Player joins the Lancastrians.
