Forum:Has anyone noticed this?

About a month ago I got back into Yugioh and decided to purchase some cards from Amazon to complete my deck. After closely inspecting the cards I had received they appeared to be different from my older cards. After some time I realized two differences. The first being that the color of the new cards were lighter overall, and the second being that the borders and names of the cards were shifted upward slightly. I searched on here and found that most newer cards have this difference and that this difference is clearly visible on cards that have received an erratum.

For example : http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Card_Errata:Elemental_HERO_Absolute_Zero

Nightmare penguin is also another example of this : http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Card_Errata:Nightmare_Penguin

(Take a look at the Rise of Destiny print of Nightmare Penguin and compare with the Realm of the Seam Emperor one)

Has anyone here noticed the change? What do you guys think of it? I assume it all comes down to managing the space on the card to allow for a larger text. What I don't understand though is why almost all of these newer cards have a lighter tone to them. I will assume again, perhaps they are trying to save money by using cheaper ink or something. Anyway, something to think about...Ghastly Voyage (talk • contribs) 01:18, October 5, 2013 (UTC)
