The Sacred Ninja Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 FLIP: Select 1 monster on your opponent's side of the field and destroy it. When this card is sent directly from your hand to the Graveyard, return 1 Flip Effect Monster from your Graveyard to your hand. A limited card. Discuss! As once stated before, this card combos with Drill Warrior's RFP effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee. Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 This isnt a Gravekeeper, yet, the artwork is similar to that. Konami, what is this I dont even Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnpsy Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 If you return Night Assailant to your hand every time, then wouldn't this be abusable with discard costs, as well as Card Destruction and Hand Destruction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkwolf777 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Rulings state that you cannot return itself back with its own effect, even though the card text would lead you to believe otherwise (since it is a Flip effect monster and in the Graveyard.) This would explain why its Limited and not Forbidden most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, Konami. Anyways, I suppose that explains why it's Limited instead of sending it the Sinister Serpent route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKPLANT RISING Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Unlike the M.E Bug, this card has a special bonus. I put one of it inside my deck, but 2 or more... nyeh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psycho Shocker Android Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Actually maybe konami will do like green baboo and errata it to "return 1 Flip Effect Monster from your Graveyard to your hand other than Night assailant" and unlimit this guy. Also, probably the best artwork in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, those guys don't give you unlimited discard fodder. How are they relevant to Sinister Serpent at all? >_____> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraz Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 They're relevant because lord poison can't summon itself but colossal can, despite similar card texts. If zombie master is removed before resolution then its effect fizzles, whereas lumina doesn't fizzle despite similar wording. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnpsy Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Wow. Yep, we need better wording on cards, I'm convinced even more of that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If zombie master is removed before resolution then its effect fizzles, whereas lumina doesn't fizzle despite similar wording.[/quote'] Lord Poison has its exception in its card text "...except "Lord Poison".Colossal Fighter can as it doesn't list this restriction. Problem is that Night Assailant doesn't list the restriction "...except Night Assailant", but is ruled as such. As for Zombie Master and Lumina (and possibly Night Assailant"), I blame Konami for a lot of things since they can't keep one thing straight with another. it may also just be poor translating from the Japanese card which may allow the card to be special summoned despite Lumina's removal, since in general when a Trigger effect is activated, removing the monster from the field usually fizzles it. Looking at the Japanese versions (the card images) of Night Assailant on the wiki, there does seem to have an errata'd version with more text added, though not being able to read japanese, i couldn't tell you what was added.

Yeah, Spear Cretin can't return itself but seems as if it should be able to... stupid Konami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
