Spatial (スペーシュル Supeesharu) is a new monster type for the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters card game. Spatial Monsters have a bright, hot pink frame and are stored in the Extra Deck; and they cannot be sent to the Graveyard by any means.

Spatial Summoning can be conducted once per turn by banishing a monster(s) on the controller's side of the field. Their indicator is called a Dimensional Number and it's different from other the indicators (Level, Rank, Wavelength, Hierarchy, etc.) because it's formatted differently (#th Dimension) and centered on the card in the form of purple spirals inside pink orbs. When the Dimensional Number exceeds 13, one of these orbs will be enlarged, and the number is put inside of it in a similar manner to an Evolute Monster's Stages.

Whenever a Spatial Monster would be sent to the Graveyard, they lose 1 Dimension instead. If the Dimensional Number would reach 0, the monster is banished. Spatial Monsters cannot be Tributed until this can happen.

Pendulum Spatial Monsters

Pendulum Spatial Monsters do not have the trait that makes them lose Dimensions because they are sent back to the Extra Deck face-up instead of going to the Graveyard. Most Pendulum Spatial Monsters have this effect: If this card in the Monster Zone is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can destroy as many cards in your Pendulum Zones as possible (min. 1), and if you do, place this card in your Pendulum Zone.

Examples

  • Starry-Eyes Spatial Dragon: 1 monster's ATK / Level (7th Dimension)
  • Astral Dragon of Stellar Vine : 1 "Vine" monster's Level or Rank + 1 "Vine" monster's Level or Rank (10th Dimension)
    • Two Level/Rank 5 "Vine" monsters
    • A Level/Rank 4 "Vine" monster & a Level/Rank 6 "Vine" monster
    • A Level/Rank 3 "Vine" monster & a Level/Rank 7 "Vine" monster
  • Osa, Princess of Stellar Vine: 1 "Vine" monster x 1 "Vine" monster (4th Dimension)
    • Dimensional Number doesn't matter here; banish any 2 monsters with a Level or Rank that meet the requirements! Osa's ATK and DEF each become equal to the sum of her materials' respective ATK and DEF while she's on the field.

Rulings

  • When dividing for the Output of Level or Rank into either ATK or DEF, apply the following to the absolute value of the former before using it as the divisor.
    • First, multiply the indicator by 10.
    • If the indicator becomes 90 or below after the above, then it is multiplied by an additional 10.
    • If the ATK or DEF exceed 1000, then the indicator is multiplied by an additional 10.
  • After applying the division, round the output in scientific notation to the leftmost digit. In the above examples, the maximum ATK values would output to 8. Therefore, they cannot be used to Spatial Summon the 7th Dimension Starry-Eyes Spatial Dragon.
  • If banishing becomes impossible by a means such as Imperial Iron Wall, then the Spatial Summon also becomes impossible.
  • Negated Spatial Summoned monsters are still banished instead of being sent to the Graveyard.
  • If the Graveyard becomes unreachable by a means such as Macro Cosmos, then the trait that decreases the Spatial Monsters' Dimensional Number becomes unusable.
  • If Spatial Monsters get sent to the Extra Deck, they cannot be Spatial Summoned normally for 2 turns total.
  • if a Spatial Monster becomes an Xyz Material and it is detached, it is banished instead of going to the Graveyard.

Trivia

  • The pink color of the Spatial monsters is brighter than the pink on a Trap Card.
  • Spatial sounds similar to Special, and was therefore chosen for the new card type name.
  • Spatial monsters were originally unable to be sent to the Graveyard at all. This was changed after negative feedback about this.
    • Their traits also could be copied and/or disabled. This was a coding bug/flaw.
