Evil Dragon Ananta - Underrated?

[-Griffin]

 

"Summon if you have a Reptile in your Graveyard. Kill a card. If your opponent can't run over this, kill another card. Repeat to your leisure. Can also be a beatstick. Also a Trade-In Target"

 

Why do the majority of Alien/Worm Decks I see have this @0? Surely, killing a card each End Phase - any card at all - and a possible trade-in beatstick isn't that bad?

[The Crimson King]

I mained 2 of these in my Aliens, and was surprised that everyone who played me was amazed at the thought. Amazing card is amazing, nuff said.

[Dr. Cakey]

Very impressive. Only weakness is that it requires the removal of ALL your Reptiles. Epic lulz. With Lion Alligator, a beatdown Reptile deck with Reptilianne tech might be quite viable.

Aliens like being in the grave since it helps to make their synchro. Also, unless your fireld is empty it's going to cost you some cards. And the kill any card CAN back fire on you if you are playing poorly.

 

Still, it's a good card and I do tech in 1 or 2 whenever I make a deck with a bunch of Reptiles.

[Catterjune]

Eh, fun card. More of a "last ditch effort" kind of a card though, in my opinion. It's alright, and I can see how someone might like it but overall... meh

Still don't like it when you have 2 or less Reptiles in your Grave when you wanna get rid of something with this. Than its got 1200 or less ATK.

 

I just don't know why I don't like this.

[DARKPLANT RISING]

The only thing that's bad is that it makes Venominaga a Volcanic Rat at its best.

 

But awesome nonetheless.

I find it's often best to Summon with only 1-2 reptiles, often Summoning it in Defense. It gives easy destruction (and an attack block) for minimal loss.

[Psycho Shocker Android]

Well the problem with this is the lack of good reptile. It's not bad just not well supported.

Exactly, imagine a plant or aqua version of this...

First time I've seen you post something actually saying that a card isn't broken or terrible.

 

But you are right.

[~ P O L A R I S ~]

Puts all of your proverbial eggs in one basket, gets trapped or obstructed somehow, and you end up losing.

 

=/

[JadenxAtemYAOI]

This is a stupid move but use this with statue of the wicked

[Bringerofcake]

Reptiliannes also like the grave, as they can't do too much with draw power.

Seriously, these were my thoughts upon reading.

I don't know if Aliens could play this but Worms should definatle play this. At least at 1!!

The only time my Reptilianne used the Graveyard was for that spawn-2-tokens card. I know R-Nightmare's possible, but I'd rather run this. Not to mention draw engines are /never/ a bad thing.

That may be, but IIRC you run a Rep variant, not Standardannes, who use more search and less draw. Also, there isn't enough space to run a decent draw engine without having to move into another build and win condition.

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

Note how it says ALL monsters that are removed.

Not just reptiles.

Anyway, Snake Rain, dump 2x Overlord, 1x Mother and 1x Anything. Spec DAD, Spec this. Profit? Yes, I am the guy who found out how to run DAD in Aliens. And Sorc.

Plasma, Stratos, Vaskii, Guardna, Ananta, Trade-In, Allure... Looks like a solid, runnable engine to me that barely changes the Deck. More ways to nab a Trade-In Target than you'll ever need.

Reptile DAD? Looks good.
