[i]You can Tribute 1 Insect-Type monster to have this card gain 500 ATK until the end of the turn.[/i]

Apparently in the [url="http://www.yugioh-card.com/en/products/tin-2010w2-SSD.html"]Shooting Star Dragon Tin[/url] we're getting this guy right here.

So discuss this hilarious card. TBH, I never even heard of this guy before. I thought we were getting this: [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Guardian_Dreadscythe"]Guardian Dreadscythe[/url].

Maybe Konami went to their endless vault of terrible cards and checked the inventory for 'old, bad, useless, need-to-get-rid-of-to-make-more-room-for-new-terrible-cards' and found this. Same thing probably happened with the Amazoness.

OT: Could Insects even use this card for fodder? Maybe if it was Lv 6...or good.

All it needs is this:

Derpscythe Harvest
Normal Spell
Activate only when you control a face-up Dreadscythe Harvester. You win the game. If this card is in the Graveyard while you control a face-up "Destiny Hero Diamond Dude", you are banned from all Konami sanctioned events.

Then it will be playable.

Maybe with Ultimate Offering, Black Ptera and DNA Surgery? That can be OTK...

It COULD be an OTK. Cannon Solider + Black Ptera + Ultimate Offering is also an OTK, uses three cards instead of four, doesn't require you to run an 8 star monster with 2300 ATK, and is much more reliable.

Well, Insect Queen vs Dreadscythe.

Insect Queen is a level 7, Dreadscythe is a level 8. Dreadscythe is better because it can be used with Trade-In. Queen can be used with Tribute Doll.

Queen has 2200 original ATK, Dreadscythe has 2300. Queen has 2800 DEF. This has 1600. Queen gains 200 ATK per field insect, so it's ATK is immediately 2400, making it better than Dreadscythe.

In order to attack, Queen must Tribute an Insect. This is a pretty difficult condition to maintain. But when it destroys a monster in battle, it summons a 100/100 token. This gives your opponent a shot at your LP for the benefit of producing Queen Tribute fodder.

Dreadscythe has no such condition on attacking, and by Tributing an Insect (like Queen) it gets a 500 ATK boost. Queen can let the other insect attack before Tributing it for it to attack, so Queen enables more damage per Battle Phase.

But ultimately, I think Dreadscythe is better. But the fact it was close to INSECT QUEEN should indicate how bad this is.
