Great Unclean One: VK Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Made back in the day when the art was great for all cards. I see no use for it within my decks but I have a guess. MACHINE EMPERORS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Void Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 It was the first 4 start with 2000 attack and was released in the VERY early days of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Crouton Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 [b] This card exists because Konami was BOARED one day.[/b] [i]BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO[/i]! Suck it, audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 It was released in the 9th pack. And the first 7 packs were nearly all Normal Monsters. Of course it sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Althemia Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 IT'S AN INVOKER TARGET. Too bad it sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Account is Unplayable Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Weren't this and Nuvia the Wicked introduced in the same pack? Or close ones? They were basically Konami's way of saying "You wanted your Level 4 2000 beaters, now suck it! t1t2" ...And look where we are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee.

Back in the days of Metal Raiders, Konami was experimenting with various ways to have a level 4 with 2000 ATK, and had to come up with all sorts of ways to balance it, considering the strongest level 4 was Mechanicalchaser(Which was worth a crap-load, btw...), which had 1850. So of course they would end up with a few dead concepts now-and-then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee. Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Because back then, level 4s with 2000ATK were considered "overpowered", because of how the game was back then, so they ended up with all kinds of wacky restrictions. Why does nobody understand that? >__> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Warden Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Didn't Flash Assailant also come out during that time as well? And the Gemini Elf card came out in the fifth pack, Labyrinth of Nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, when did the Gemini Elves appear? [/quote] yea, Flash Assailant came out in the same pack as this (in both TCG and OCG), and if i recall Gemini Elf came out [i]before those 2 in OCG[/i] though it came out after Assailant and Boar in TCG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanAtlus Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Gemini Elf was F*CKING BEAST when it was released. To summarize; the game has evolved since10 years ago, people wanted more beatsticks and effect monsters and Konami had to fill their packs. Plus; it has Pumba on the artwork, be happy.

Toffee. Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 @Alex: Except back then, a cost of 1000 was actually considered to be "fair".

Monsters which only have 700 less DEF (That Dark Elf), if that at all matters O.o And Alex being namesake card, it has to be awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
