Explosive Urchin


Recommended Posts

Never been discussed according to search engine, which I find unlikely. Anyway...

Lore: [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Activate"]Activate[/url] only when your opponent activates a [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Trap_Card"]Trap Card[/url]. During your [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Standby_Phase"]Standby Phase[/url]: Inflict 1000 [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Effect_Damage"]damage[/url] to your opponent. Your opponent must [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Control"]control[/url] a [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Face-up"]face-up[/url] Trap Card for you to activate and resolve this effect. During your 3rd [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/End_Phase"]End Phase[/url] after activation, [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Send"]send[/url] this card to the [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Graveyard"]Graveyard[/url].

Nice card for a plot device, managed to use it in the fanfic fairly neatly and will no doubt be doing so again at some point. But in terms of the OCG/TCG...

Well you can pretty much garuntee everyone you run into will run two CotH plus Limit Reverse for Synchro/Xyz shenanigans but still...

Jury is now in session?

Sooo....
it goes to the Graveyard without the possibility of Imperial Custom saving it.
It needs a specific condition that depends on your opponent.
It serves no other purpose than those 1000 burn that it does at a very specific time.
Meteor of Destruction is better without counting the starting LIfe from the anime (and possibly some fan fics).

It has fanfic potential, buuuuut...

Not to offend, but I think the generic strategy of getting rid of your opponent's cards and attacking directly with a bunch of orange, black, and white cards for game is slightly better.

No offence taken of course :)

I suspected the replies would all lean towards 'bad card' (not as terrible as they then were) but no worries at all. I know I'm a fanfic duelist and not a real game player so I look for different things. I just like finding and trying alternatives. If they work great, don't find another one.
