Partangle the Candle Jangler Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 This isn't very anti-Rabbit. EDIT: Since I got warned for "light-spamming" in this thread for not posting a whole load of stuff.....I find Rabbit annoying to play against and this primarily counters it, while doing the same to TGU and others. It has 1850 ATK to be able to stay alive and it's Dark because Dark. Also can prevent itself being destroyed for the same reason.

If this card would be destroyed, you can discard one card from your hand instead. [color=#000000]1850/1200[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garthfunkle Vii Backwards Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 not anti rabbit y but it would stop it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sander Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 The card is pretty good, since it can protect itself from, let's say Hornet to stop Dragonfly to get Centipede etc. etc, as well it can somewhat stop your opponent form getting Laggia or Dollka out. So yeah, there's nothing really wrong with this card, given how, in my opinion, this would be a pretty good tech in some Decks, maybe Side worthy.

Resident Fascist Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 This card actually seemed more anti-Gladiators than Rabbit, considering Laquari can't run it over, Mermillo can't kill it, etc. Considering the fact that it also shuts down Inzektors and Rabbit, I'd say it's a very nice card. The typing irks me a bit though. Spellcaster? Looks more like a Fiend to me, but whatever. Stopping Tour Guide is also a very good thing, and 1850 is a really nice figure. Yeah, it's a good card. Would I side it? In decks that have bad matchups against afformentioned decks, anywhere else? Nah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Partangle the Candle Jangler Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Yeah...I was unsure about making it a Spellcaster but just did cos I'm sick of Fiends....it just seemed more appropriate for the image I guess. Though it wouldn't make a HUGE difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guuu1234 Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 I mostly like this card. It pretty must shuts down Wind-Ups, Inzektors, Rabbit, Etc. The thing I don't like is how it can be easy discard food for DW's, while keeping itself safe in the process. I think that produces too many pluses.

guuu1234 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Then I guess it stays. Probably because it's a spellcaster type monster, and has no real place place in a deck that goes with Darkworlds. I mean It's no Gates of Darkworld target, and Darkworld's are all about producing quick discards on their own turn, releasing devestating effects, aggressive play, swarming, etc. This card plays "the waiting game", and darkworlds don't do that. So it's more of a side card if anything, but I would main it myself; maybe because I like to surprise my opponent lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunniZek Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 In general good effect definitely one of my favs from the Six Samurai but ugh I always hated the XX50 atk or def points. Never really understood why the creators did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In retrospect, if it the monsters base ATK was, lets say 1900, then adding 50 would mean it can runover the latter mentioned monsters, without having to sacrifice a card. Those 50 points really make a difference, in terms of balance and good card design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pokemon Trainer Red Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 I love this card. If it was Light I would totally main this in LS. Definitely use it in a Twilightsworn though. Awesome card man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I;m concered, back before Yu-gi-oh got as competitive as it was today, I believe this card was first featured in the Panic vs Yugi duel? idk, i haven't seen that show in a good 7 years or so. . . . anyway panic used this card in combination with all these other things to constantly power up the DEF of cards, and his card all featured monsters with odd ATK/DEF points(1920/1870, etc.). As far as I'm concerned, this was just a plot device thing for the show, or some crappy idea to generate insterest in monsters with uneven ATK/DEF points as so, and holds no real place in card design today. Then again, I guess Konami will always release cards that are a little different just because Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Partangle the Candle Jangler Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 I agree that they make stuff just to be different, but they didn't need to make the real card....like it is.
