Synchro Improvement Project [3/?? posted]

Recommended Posts

So with the release of Xyzs, Synchros have fallen out of favor, mostly due to the lack of decent generic ones with Goyo, Dark Strike Fighter, Trishula, and now Brionac being given the banhammer. This is an attempt to improve/revive Synchro-centric decks, as well as hopefully create new ones.

The first four cards will be Synchros, and hopefully I'll add a few Tuners and Spell cards to round out the set. Ideas for card names and effects are welcome.

And here are the cards:

[spoiler=Luminous Fairy Mallyra]

Lore:
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner Monsters
During your turn only, while this card is in your Graveyard: banish this card and target 1 Monster you control; increase the ATK of the target by the original ATK of this card. You cannot attack directly the turn this effect is used. This card inflicts Piercing Damage.
[/spoiler]

This is supposed to giving us a decent Lv5 other than Castator. Librarian isn't used much and Magical Android is just bad.

[spoiler=Sirrus, Dragon of Chaos]

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner Monsters
When this card is Synchro Summoned: both players randomly banish 1 card in their hand then draw 1 card. When this card is sent to the Graveyard: both players add the cards banished by this card's effect to their owner's hands.
[/spoiler]

Possible Brionac Replacement.

[spoiler=Corrupted Demon Barak]

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner Monsters
Once per turn: you can Banish 1 Tuner Monster in your Graveyard; destroy 1 card your opponent controls. When this card is sent to the Graveyard: Target 1 banished Tuner monster; Special Summon that target. This effect can only be used once per Duel.
[/spoiler]

Black Rose Dragon seems to be the only Lv7 Synchro used these days. This gives you an additional option. More variety is what I'm going for here.

I think Sirrus is certainly a suitable Brio replacement, whilst sustaining a nice balance to boot.

Barak also has a neat effect that, although not quite up there with Black Rose Dragon in terms of usefulness, is never the less a fine addition to the right build. My only query is - Is the 'once per duel' clause really necessary? I understand that it's better to make a card underpowered than overpowered, but is the effect dominating enough to warrant such limitation?

Mallyra's effect is very well placed, as having a 2000 ATK piercing Lv 5 Synchro with a simple but tasty after effect strikes the perfect balance.
Overall, interesting and useful additions.
