Fish Foolish Burial...

 

But... why? <_<

 

I haven't kept up with the meta, is there some super sexy fish revival card, or some card that does something when fish are in the grave?

 

Also, since most fish are also water types, wouldn't that mean Skreech would work infinitely better for the same or similar purposes?

 

Is it the fact that it recruits another copy of itself? If so, Mother Grizzly still serves the same or similar functions, no?

 

Overall, I don't see why this card would be seen as worth studying because "it thins the deck" (especially when we've had cards that thin decks since 2004) or would be seen as "nice" when another card with a similar effect has been made or how someone can claim "i can see this being fun to use and abuse. " Is it the fact that it's all these things combined? Because even then it's not impressive and it seems like you guys are overrating an awful card... again.

 

So, go ahead YCM. Enlighten me.

But Mother Grizley wont send another WATER/Fish to the Graveyard, and Skreech wont Special Summon another copy of itself.

 

So technicly, this card is somewhere between them.

So then the real question becomes "is there some super sexy fish revival card, or some card that does something when fish are in the grave?"

 

Because as far as I can tell, if you need summoning for low attack monsters, you should use Mother Grizzly, and if you need sending stuff when monsters are destroyed by battle you should use Skreech. It's like the old saying "If you chase two rabbits, both will get away". Rather then using two excellent cards, you instead use one crumby, average one that requires a good amount of deck commitment to work.

Use in some Coel build? It dumps Fishborg and makes Salvage targets while being usable tribute fodder or a Fish if you want to Synch for Brio/Goyo/Whatever when using Coel. Maybe even Solid Fish, at least when they get a little more support.

Pretty much :/

Now watch, Konami releases a series of Fish-Types who include effects about Removing Fish from the field + Graveyard.

Having a stupid worthless gimmick for the sake of having a stupid worthless gimmick is... stupid and worthless... <_<

 

I merely wanted to know if it was that I was out of the game so much I couldn't recognize a common strategy or if the people praising this card were just incompetent mouth breathers. Guess that answers that.

And I was presently interpreting the comments not as "This card is awesome, it'll break the meta, and everyone will run it", but more as a realization of the card's potential that has yet to be fully untapped. There are decent cards with interesting effects, but haven't quite clicked how incredible they can be, and there are cards that try to be the first category, but miss the mark and just plain suck. This appears to be an example of the former. Being able to use a Foolish Burial for Fish in monster form and then summoning another copy is interesting and only time will tell whether this card will be truly awesome.

 

Fish are getting more support these days, so we should be glad that a lot of the support isn't utterly worthless (Ehero support, cough), even if the combos to exploit aren't readily apparent.

Too bad it's "destroyed by battle" and not "sent to the grave".

But I aggree, that would've op'd it...

Has some potential. Fish haven't really had a breakthrough, but they're gaining a bit of support every set...Once someone manages to T16 on Schonen Jump, everybody will start running them because "omgschonennetdeckwtfftwlulzderp".

I somehow find Sunfish hilarious, no matter how they're portrayed.

 

Back on-topic though, I do think it has some use in most Fish decks. In fact... basically any fish deck, because the only type I can think of would be Superancient Deepsea King, as that Canadian guy above me pointed out.

 

Ha ha, Nimble Ocean Sunfish...

This adds far more consistency to any Coelacanth deck. It dies, summons another copy and dumps Fisborg. It qualifies for what's necessary to summon Fishborg from the grave, dump a card from hand. Summon Fishborg. Tribute both for Coelecanth. Dump a card and pull whatever fishes you want from deck.

 

Because of this it's not necessary to run Mausoleum or Legendary Ocean in Coelecanth decks to make tributing for him consistent anymore.

 

Terrible card for anything outside of Coelecanth but BRILLIANT card for Coelecanth.

@pikaperson01, you dont get it do you, this is really imba card lulz

 

First off, it allows you to dump SDKC, so you can either revive him (symbols, coth, reincarn) or copy his effect w/ POC.

 

What SDKC decks lack is consistency. The fish that we have currently die easily and dont offer great effects that keep them on the field. This card is a different story and if it gets mind controlled etc you can always chain a fish depth charge.

 

Lastly, it can also sync for 6 stars on the effect of SDKC, something that wasnt really viable since no 2 fish form exactly 6 until this card came along. Ergo fish now has easy access to goyo and brionac etc as well as the new Dewloren, Tiger Prince of the Ice Barrier.

 

Not to mention this as well:
