Does Yusei even use its effect?
[/quote]

Not often. He didn't even use Stardust himself until his first duel with Aki, where he used it at least twice to counter Black Rose Dragon. Jack used it in their first duel to counter Remote Revenge, and Yusei stole it back with a card, then used it to counter The End of Storm, in both their first duel and second duel. I remember him using it in the second duel with Rudger to counter Earthbound Roar. He may also have used it against Rex to counter Sun Dragon Inti.

Even if he didn't use it, there was the 2-on-1 duel with Lotten where it was implied Lotten was screwed because Stardust could counter Long Barrel Ogre's destruction effect, and Infernity Death Dragon would destroy it next turn.

So even though Stardust and Shooting Star are CAPABLE of anti-destruction, the anime rarely uses simple destruction to trigger it. This actually annoyed me about Yusei's Crashtown duel with Kiryu, as Infernity Break should have targeted Stardust, not Power Frame. But evidently no one knows what Second Booster did, so...*sigh*

0.o I just noticed I made a mistake. [s]Best synchro ever[/s] is what it should have been.

Yea... Neos [i]IS[/i] pretty terrible.
Considering Allius(w/e) pretty much does his job, but better.

Heros would have been incredible if Clayman and Sparkman were level 3.

Armadillo - it's terrible how evil(hero)fusion said that e heroes are bad. Why would he do that? (he didn't! jkz!!! ) I agree w/ Armadilloz - and why wasn't clayman A ROCK TYPE?????????? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

oh sorry - StarGod Dragon and StarGod SuperGodDr.Manhattan Mode were made up by a 7 year old and then shoved down our throats as being reasonable and balanced which it isn't.

well there's always

Lava Golem?
Really.
>_>

There should be a card that makes it so that your opponent can't tribute summon monsters.

[evilfusion]

Mask of Restrict glares at you.

[HaouJudai]

oh god - or gozen match or rivalry of warlords too!

I said opponent.

[evilfusion]

Oh, so you want to still be able to Tribute monsters. Hmm...there isn't one. Most cards like that affect both players, like Vanity's Fiend, Anti-Spell Fragrance, Mask of Restrict, Royal Decree, etc.

I think Kaiba said that a lot of 1 for 1 destruction cards (eg. Smashing Ground) were outlawed for serious duels way back, but I can't remember... anyway, thanks.

@Judai: E-Heros are better as Warrior-Types, by the way.

Solid Gozen Rivals is horribly inconsistent, but really hilarious when it gets going.

Startard definitely changed the game. It would have been tons better if it never existed or if it wasn't generic. Seeing it so often gets extremely frustraiting.

THEY TAKE FOREVER to do thier turns. What is generic about Stardust? It was(I think) the first card to have the effect.

[evilfusion]

They mean a generic Synchro. No special Tuner/non-Tuner requirements. Later Synchros are no longer generic.

[Resident Fascist]

Oh. In that case nearly all the Synchros released In 2009 and early 2010 are generic.

Thank you for that insight.

-Takes a Stardust Dragon, holds it near my nose and inhales deeply through the nose-

My locals used to have the best nickname for this card, until they stopped playing Yugioh and played Naruto XD
