Crush all of them!

[Dabir]

...with this slightly underwhelming Tuner courtesy of Gradius 1 (but hey, slightly underwhelming seems to be Gradius-based cards' signature, so that can only be a plus for realism).

This card cannot be used for a Synchro Summon except by its own effect. When this card destroys a monster as a result of battle, select and activate one of the following effects:

- Synchro Summon 1 Synchro Monster. (Send this card and the other appropriate Synchro Material Monsters to the Graveyard.)

- Special Summon 1 "Sidewinder Token" (LIGHT/Level 4/Machine/ATK 1200/DEF 800). "Sidewinder Tokens" cannot be destroyed as a result of battle or Tributed for a Tribute Summon.

The art is actually from Gradius 2, Gradius 1 hasn't got any decent art and the ships are pretty much identical.

 

"Warp Rattler" + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters

When this card or a "T-301 Option Token" summoned by this card destroys a monster as a result of battle, select and activate one of the following effects:

- Increase this card's ATK by 800.

- Special Summon 1 "T-301 Option Token" to your side of the field. "T-301 Option Tokens" always have the same Attribute, Level, Type, ATK and DEF as the monster that summoned them.

- Select 1 LIGHT Level 4 Machine-Type monster (except a Token) and 1 "T-301 Option Token" that you control. That Token becomes any Token listed in the card text of that monster.

- Select 1 Token you control that was Special Summoned by 1 LIGHT Level 4 Machine-Type monster. It becomes a "T-301 Option Token" and is treated as having been Special Summoned by this card.

 

Background from here, Vic Viper T-301 from here, Jpeg'd edges on Viper cleaned up by hand, by me, in MSPaint.

Please fix effect errors. Otherwise, great effect.

was hard to read the lore

 

if the tokens are still allowed to attack, you should make sure they can't be used for tribute summoning

 

7.7/10

Thanks for your comments. Lore corrected and a new monster added, could make some more like this since Konami left the gate wide open for archetype support with "Victory Viper". Also OMG that text size is horrendous, why does the font go from being readable to a little squiggle line?

Such a win name and BG.

Isn't that horrible? It sucks.

 

Anyways, awesome cards love the effects very few OCG errors, good pics.

I'd say... hmmmm.... like an 7.9/10 or an 8.1/10?

And it's all right that it gets its effect off the tokens destroying things too? I was worried that that might make it overpowered.
