[quote=@Ammokkx] *shrug* To be fair, There's some cards created here that simply would not work IRL because the card text is too long. We're not following reality down to the nitty gritty, card text just has to be correct and balanced. And it's not like Konami never had the choice to make them like that, they just haven't done so yet. Honestly, you weren't really supposed to send fusion materials from your field to your deck until contacts came out either or use mask change to summon a fusion monster that can't even be summoned otherwise. There will always be exceptions to the rule. [/quote] Yeah, but Contact Fusion and Mask Change are pretty much evolved mechanics that border on being something new entirely, kind of like Rank-Up and Accel Synchro, with appropriately flashy introductions in the anime or manga. And yeah, Konami certainly had the chance to make Xyz Monsters like this, but they haven't, and saying they haven't done so [i]yet[/i] is just speculation. Konami could have taken Xyz Monsters down the path of Fusions and Synchros by requiring different materials, but they didn't, and that's probably because they have a specific idea of what Xyz Monsters should be. By the way, I think you might be underestimating just how small card text can be.
