Eibon1307 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Usless or not? Discuss this card!!!!!! To start the discussion: IMO this card would be nice to have. I want this card. When does it come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 OCG: it's already out TCG: not until May/June (iirc it's a subscription promo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eibon1307 Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I looked it up on SJs sight and it says it'll be available in stores soon, but wouldnt say when. And there is alot of rumor of it being in stores as well on a few forums. I hope it is because their making Grannel a SJ promo, so it would be nice to get Mekanikle and Grannel from SJ cause so far Extreme Victory only has Skiel listed on the TCG list but no mention of Wisel and Grannel or Mekanikle or the Astrisk.... It'll suck if we either dont get them or have to wait til the next set.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Dragon Asterix is in EXVC, (it was in the OCG set) the machine imperial soldiers are in EXVC Mekanikle is gonna be in SJ (i think it's a subscription promo) but i know it's coming out in May/June - check Shriek TCG news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiithepeople Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Meklord_Astro_Mekanikle Link above. This card is situational only. But I can't deny a card that goes omnomnom This guy thinks Synchro Monsters are cookies. OMNOMNOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Oh, Machinicle. What a horrible English name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I consider this card to have the single WORST English name change in history (I could be wrong). Machine Divine Emperor Machinecle Infinity Cubic= original anime I know "Cubic" got removed from the OCG version. Then we learned the English name for "Kikou" monsters is "Meklord" (shudder) Then they changed "God" to "Astro" for this and Asterisk (wtf?) Then they changed "Machinecle" to "Mekanikle" The pun is not amusing. This has nothing in common with the original name. NOTHING. As for the card itself, it's like a specific form of Montage Dragon, except with 4000 ATK, Synchro stealing, and a Burn effect that will probably never be used. If you bring it out, congratulations, but like Asterisk, Fortress loves it more than the Machine Emperors do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eibon1307 Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 @superstar: The promos are two synchros. Lightning warrior and seven swrods warrior I think are their names. I couldn't find any news of it on Shriek yet, which is why I came here. I dont have the SJ and I'm having a hard time finding it. I think their online editor made a boo-boo because as of 8 am this morning, the sight changed back to previews on this months issue, the 100th issue, when last night when I posted, it was about next months issue and how Bakuman or whatever that new manga from the creator of DeathNote is called and how it's supposed to have a large number of pages in the next issue. Under it was a small promo saying "Coming Soon: SJ exclusive card: Meklord Astro Makanikle. No date of release or anything. On topic of discuss it. Again, Collection only. I know that Skeil is for sure in EXVC, but that is so far the only named Meklord in the TCG. I do not know for sure if we will get the others in EXVC. I do hope so because I would like them for my collection and I am not a patient person when it comes to waiting for collection peices... It is one of those "If you get it out, good for you, if not, thats why no one runs it." kind of thing... Like Exxoidius and others. But, I don't think that it will be much use when the Exceeds come out. I think it will see little to no play IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Crouton Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 The name changes are awesome. The original names are too long. It would've been better if "Meklord" was "Mechlord." Meklords need a Rota to make this good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Nu-13 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 [i]This card cannot be Normal Summoed or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except from your hand or Graveyard by sendig 3 "Meklord" monsters from your hand to the Graveyard. You can select 1 face-up Synchro Monster your opponent controls, and equip it to this card. This card gains ATK equal to those equipped monsters' combined ATK. Once per turn, you can send 1 of those monsters to the Graveyard to inflict damage to your opponent equal to its ATK.

Shizuku Oikawa Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Meklords need their card that can recycle them by adding two from the Grave to your hand, and their own E-Call. Well, they just need cards that doesn't make you lose hand advantage, unlike Astro Mekanikle here. You lose 4 cards in your hand (Astro Mekanikle included), to Summon this. If you did that off the start of the duel, you'll be left with two cards in your hand. Looks like the odds are against you afterwords. Card could have been better.

AsterikcAde Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Now that's what I call a beast of a monster card! Overpowered effect but it's summoning conditions help to balance the overall aspect of this card. Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the change of when the Burn occurs is acceptable nerfing (annoying), but the loss of the Battle Phase is just insulting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 I have no problem that Cubic's name got shortened (it was a bit long), but the English version kills everything good about the name. Astro instead of God, Meklord instead of Machine (Divine) Emperor, some weird butchering of its actual name, and no Infinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Should of been a DARK machine fusion using 3 meklord monsters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jord200 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 After Shooting Star Dragon, Red Nova Dragon, and Black Feathered Dragon destroyed Infinity Cubic, he was found by a group of people who rebuilt him, giving him a new name and effect. Unfortunately those people we Konami, and they made him completely useless. He was force to join Oricholcos Shuneros, Eathbound Immortal Wiraqocha Rasca, and The Winged Dragon of Ra in a group of creatures that had once had incredable power, but were now useless. OT- it was nerfed to the point of it being crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, your definition of "long name" seems to be different than mine. Obviously the name is huge, but it's kind of supposed to be I AM OVERKILL MONSTER PHEER MAH NAME!!!!!!!! In related news, when I was designing Over Accel Synchro - before TV Tokyo psychically stole my idea and created Limit Over Accel Synchro - all the monsters had ridiculous names that strained the boundaries of the English language. So the Machine Emperor Over Accel was... Grand Universal Machine God Singularitiel Infinity^14 (The exponent comes from its Level - Level 14 - but that would take too long to explain) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
