Brandon Michael Geren Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Should be limited. Inzektors are a very powerful deck. This is obvious. However, how do you get rid of them? Dragonfly can’t search itself, but Centipede can. A Centipede every turn is a force to be reckoned with, but a random Dragonfly at random moments is meaningless.

[/quote] The main difference is that Dragonfly Special Summons almost any Inzektor from deck, bypassing Rai-Oh. But Centipede allows you to add Dragonfly or Giga-Mantis under Pot of Duality. The thing is, I don't see either Dragonfly or Centipede to be off-the-wall broken. The main problem is Hornet, who pretty much generates a +3 from the hand or +4 from the Graveyard if Dragonfly is on the field, or a +1 with Centipede if Hornet is in Graveyard. With the introduction of Gruf, with its pseudo-Hornet effect, tells me that Hornet is most likely taking the most brutal hit among the Inzektors. By killing off Hornet, the destruction engine is hit almost completely. You could still use Gruf to get your Rank 5, but without the destruction engine in place, the Inzektors are more balanced in that regard.

RAEGING D0GKING Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I guess yeah Centi to 1 and the deck will need to use other Inzektors or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welche the crab Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I told people to limit this when i was looking for creative solutions to inzektors. Also limit Rat to keep Wind-Ups competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rai-Oh is irrelevant. After that bit, I stopped reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's another point that I was going to talk about. Hornet safely kills Rai-Oh so that you can get your free Inzektor from Deck. And it can put Stardust away for a turn with no penalty so the destruction engine can continue uninterrupted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plays4days Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 told ya that its better to limit this over Dragonfly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Banning Hornet kils the entire deck, given Amaise is rather slow. It's not a bad card at all TBH, but it's too slow for the format. Limiting Centipede "balances" the deck, and it's better than limiting Dragonfly given it can be revived in many ways.
