So, this is the Core of all of these monster. (DISC on Iron core of Koa'ki Meiru)

[Great Unclean One: VK]

 

This card is teh very foundation of the Core Chimail archtype, yet why did they give it a sucky effect?

 

 

Also while we're at it, let's discuss the archtype as well.

What the Core Chimail Needs:

 

Cost negation

Draw Engine

Moar Consistency

 

You all know what to do......

 

GO GO GO!!!

[just-duelist]

the funny thing about this card is that you can easily build a desent koa'ki meiru deck without it...

they could use some better suport

[Toffee.]

I swear, Koa'kis are like some kind of running gag that references Gradius

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

Pretty much the entire Archetype relies on this card for survival. Without it, either reveal another of the same type or let it be destroyed.

 

So yeah, they need cards that can help negate their "maintenance" cost and other things.

[Master Hyperion]

Turn all existing and future Koa'ki monsters into rocks (except Drago and that double attacker), change the cost of most cards into revealing 1 Rock-Type monster in your hand and make support that doesn't involve the absolute horrid Iron Core Spell Card or aren't horribly situational.

 

You're welcome Konami.

To be honest, the "best" koaki decks wouldn't even run this if it weren't necessary for maximus.

 

To be honest again, koaki's are terribad in their own deck.

[Blaze Pyro]

Their new support is good there is a card that summons a 1800 attack and defense token when a koaki is destroyed in the end phase and another that gives all koakis 500 more attac (like they need more) and another 1000 if you discard a core. Also there's sandman who stops traps including starlight road. Even though they have Core Compression they still need more draw power.

[Dark_Armed_Zombie]

The best "pure" Koa'ki deck is the Rock Stun varient, but that's anti-meta, almost assuring it a place in tier 2. With Sandman out, the Beast-Warrior varient gains some advantage by still being able to field wipe via Sandman being able to negate SLR.

This card sucks... and reliance on this incredibly sucky card makes Koa'kis suck by association.

Anyhow, you might be right Byak....... You might be right.

EDIT:

Koa'Ki's need this:

-Quick-Play Spell-

Reveal 1 "Iron Core of [blah]" in your hand to your opponent. Draw 2 cards' date=' and place the "iron core of [blah']" ontop of your deck.

[Great Unclean One: VK]

Koa'Ki Meirus are effectivly a monster version of the BES bosses from Gradius

 

Prove me wrong' date=' I dare you.

Except the BES bosses are already made.

 

Big Core and them would liekz a talk with youz.

Fixed OCG. A +0 that works, though wouldn't sending it to the grave achieve the same thing? Or did you want to leave the chance of milling it?

They are monsters that revolve around a "core".

Shoot the core' date=' and you win.

[Zauls]

Koa'kis are one of the worst archtypes out there. Dueled a little kid at locals who had them and they were completely horrible. Back then, my deck was also horrible and I still murdered him.
