Canadian Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Instant Stardust Dragon! [center][img]http://www.saberdragon.at11.clyx.com/Favorites/Starlight%20Road.png[/img] A few decent targets for this card (Icarus, Mirror Force, Torrential, Dark Hole) and a 1-turn Stardust effect is pretty good. Why isn't this played more?[/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleOnceCalledGod Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 People seem to use 141 destruction instead nowadays, and usually you can recover more from a dark hole than from a heavy storm (thank goodness it was banned). If you are going to fall to one of the multi-destruction cards, make sure you have a back-up plan, or better yet, wait until you know your opponent cannot do something to stop your assault.

Anbu-of-Sand Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 I found it pretty good. I became less of a fan of it though when I found out you can only use the Summoned Stardust Dragon's effect only once >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it weren't for the once only Stardust effect, it'd be used a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdoopertrooper Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 This card is amazing, verging on broken. You forgot a number of important cards that this can stop and gain huge +'s from: - Gladiator Beast Gyzarus - Judgement Dragon - Celestia - Black Rose Dragon This card alone is responsible for making field clearers and cards that destroy more than 1 card at a time a huge risk to play. And here's the real kicker: in our current format (and future formats to come), if you need to push for game, you can do a swarm, activate dark hole or torrential on the last summon you can make, and then chain this to get an extra 2500 beatstick for game (which can also negate a destruction effect if need be). Its busted. Should be at least in every side deck at 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This card doesn't have many uses, and will be a dead draw more often than not. But, of course, if you negate a Dark Hole with it while you have Formula Synchron out...

It would suck very hard if you swarm the field ending with a Torrental/Dark Hole > Starlight Road Chain and your opponent negated your Starlight, which doesn't seem that hard to happen. xD[/b] [/quote] I personally use "My Body as a Shield" most of the time if I want to stop field nukes. Its less likely to be ruined by Trap Stun/Royal Decree. Card is fun though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDKMRV Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Card would be broken if it said, "This Special Summon is treated as a Synchro Summon." Too bad it doesn't. It's was a staple. Now it's a side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~NOiSE~ Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I never ended up using it, as the opportune moment always seemed to evade me... You can only use Stardust's effect once if it's Summoned by this card? This I did not know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Void Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 With Heavy Storm gone, there just is far less played right now that triggers this. That's the primary reason you no longer really see it. Shame since I have like 6 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I miss the time where you could set this and Assault Mode Activate than end your turn luring your opponent into a Heavy Storm. Those were the days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] The reason is because Stardust was not properly Synchro Summoned when summoned by this card, so it cannot be Special Summoned from the Graveyard or RFG zone, even by its own effect. With Heavy gone, this has lost it's "staple" status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallabas Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 If only it was just if it destroyed 2 cards on the field. Would negate Scrap Dragon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
