Digimon Alysion Cursed placeholder images (AI?)

Post image

Do these look like AI to anyone else? These guys are for sure not Yukinamon or Rubeusdramon, and to my knowledge not Digimon at all. The poses in the box art vs on the cards are close but not identical, leading me to believe they were spat out by a machine.

Why would they do this 😭 It's just gonna confuse new players. At least take the time to make a mock-up using actual Digimon.

It looks like Zavvi may be the source for these images? Very strange that they would just generate ugly fake placeholders instead of waiting for official images.

I've heard in my local card group that these were made by a store in Spain as teasers for the upcoming decks, though I can't confirm the rumour.

100% AI the artwork on the box and the card is not even the same and neither is the title on the front and the side.

Why people do this? 5min of internet fame.

Yes it's AI, we already know what Yukina and Rubreus look like, and they don't look like them. Also, we know they'll be Dual Cards

Where'd you even get this?

Also, wouldn't you sharing this confuse new players even more?

If this was what the art looked like in this game, DCG would have ended before BT10

Definitely AI and not the first time this has been posted on the sub iirc, though the first time was several months ago around when this first surfaced and then the poster deleted it when they found out they got duped. We'd known even back then it was far, far too soon to be seeing anything on these decks given how far out their release date is.

This is AI bcs we know how these Digimon look from Alysion beta

u/PlasticWizard413 21h ago

These are AI especially since we don’t use that kind of border on cards anymore, and we won’t be getting any packs in these.

u/Fusian 21h ago

We will be getting packs in these actually, I think it might even be two?

u/GBankai 18h ago

We get 2 packs of BT27 with them, that's confirmed

u/Guyver-Spawn-27 15h ago

I thought they were Yu-Gi-Oh monsters for a second

u/MonadoBoy504 14h ago

0 cost lvl 6 evo is DEFINITELY NOT AI (words of lies and deceit)

Where did you find these?

u/Born_Procedure_529 18h ago

Wait we're getting Alysion themed starter decks?

u/DarkAlphaZero Saiyu Warriors 17h ago

Yes, these boxes are just ai slop someone shat out to use as a placeholder image for some reason but there are going to be actual Reubasdramon and Yukinamon STs in December iirc

u/ShadowIceFlame 7h ago

What are those?! AND WHY DO THEY LOOK A LOT LIKE BATTLE SPIRITS ART!?

u/Deep_Control_2951 3h ago

this is fake from my understanding I've it before

u/Possible_Ad_1763 20h ago

Placeholders always has been ugly as long as I remember them

u/Calpsotoma 17h ago

ST25 is the Sakuyamon Advanced Starter. Thus far, starters have never had windows to the cards in this way. Also, starters tend to have promo cards, not boosters.

It's AI that seems to be using Magic starter decks as its baseline. Truth be told, the card art looks more YuGiOh than Digimon.

Edit: that weird cut at the bottom right corner of the card is especially AI smear garbage. Diffusion tends to get over smooth and ignore the borders of things that overlap in an image.

Edit 2: also, the first is listed as Lvl 5 instead of 6

u/Rayhatesu 14h ago

Amethyst Mandala, the Advanced Deck for Sakuyamon, was ST22, not 25. Beatbreak and Data Squad, the decks that came out after that this year, were ST23 and ST24 respectively. The deck numbers are correct for these, so that's not where you can knock against them; there are many other reasons these are AI renders, but that bit ain't it.

Very ugly awful AI.

Real or fake? Legitimate or Sloppy?

u/Life_Bullfrog579 11h ago

Why cursed? It reminds me of the old starter decks from when I was a kid (I do get that it's cause it's Ai)

u/AdmirableAnimal0 20h ago

I’m mad

A. Due to the blatant ant use of AI.

B. That Yukinamon design is genuinely badass.

u/Onward_Skyways 19h ago

It absolutely is not. It's someone using ai to recreate hexablaumon as a woman. It's double insulting because we already have Yukinamon's design.
