evilfusion Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Not really useful. It's technically a very specific -1 disguised as retrieval. If you got to draw a card as well, it'd be much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resident Fascist Posted May 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 It specifies "Meklords" If you run this in Meklords, you can use it pretty much as you draw it. It like it to be quite honest, as Meklord Army of Skiel searches another Meklord from your deck, you don't lose the meklord you put back in the deck, agreed it's a -1, but you can grab a Meklord Emperor by sending back any of the Meklord army of cards.

evilfusion Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Let me put it this way: I rather use Monster Reincarnation than this. While Skiel can search the Meklord I put back, unless I put a dead Machine Emperor back into the deck, the overly specific nature of having a Meklord in your hand and putting it back into the deck just to retrieve a specific monster just strikes me as too much effort. Monster Reincarnation can let me discard any card, monster or otherwise, to retrieve any monster. It's also a -1, but at least it's flexible.

evilfusion Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Considering things like Morphtronic Accelerator and Scrapstorm both let you replace the card advantage, I really think this should have done the same. It's subpar support otherwise for a very small archetype, and already outclassed by Reincarnation. I'm guessing they were concerned about Machine Emperors becoming too good in the Synchro meta.

evilfusion Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Overmind's not that broken. There's a line between "good" and "too good". Overmind didn't cross it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilhorus Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 I like it. Although I'd probably just use Monster Reincarnation, as said before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Actually, that would be kind of cool, but only to make Asterisk better, and some of the other support interesting, but it wouldn't really make any sense. Meklords seem pretty exclusive to Granel, Wisel, Skiel, Asterisk, and Machinecle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDDRodrigo Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 It's a big and fat -1, but can switch an Army to an Emperor... Still not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cakey Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 So bad cards get terrible support? idgi Not saying [s]the Emperors[/s] Wisel and Granel are bad, but everything else...ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Meklords are kind of fun and interesting. They're just not meta. Although Meklord Exceeds are kind of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 The only Meklord monsters in the game: Meklord Army of Wisel "" of Skiel "" of Granel Meklord Emperor Wisel "" Skiel "" Granel Meklord Astro Dragon Asterisk Meklord Astro Mekanikle None of them are worth using this over Reincarnation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
