Synchronized Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 2 Level 7 monsters You can also Xyz Summon this card using any 2 non-Xyz monsters of the same Type you control. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; until the End Phase of your opponent's next turn, neither player can Xyz Summon using monsters with a different Level from the detached monster as Xyz Materials. Obviously based off that random Exclusive we got in CBLZ that focuses on shutting down Xyz Summons, but this does it somewhat differently in that given the right set-up you can make some significant plays to stop Xyz Summoning, because the monsters don't have to be the same Level. By making it's Rank 7, though, there's no Gaia Dragon plays or anything like that, so I tried to keep it as balanced as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sora1499 Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Well, I honestly can't say I like it. It has way too many playthings like diva, Venus, TGU, wolfberk, spirit + chicken, the list goes on. Furthermore, all the card does is sit there and prevent your opponent from playing the game properly. It doesn't even have the decency to attack and fall into a mirror force, it just fucking sits there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diva can go into Catastor/Gachi which will more often than not be more effective. I'm not familiar with the concept(s) of Fire Fists so I'll leave that one alone, but saying that it prevents your opponent from playing the game properly would be saying that Gravity Bind/Shock Master do the same. It's just a one-turn stall which can shut down some bigger plays to allow you the time to make a comeback. It's not really abuseable in the slightest.

Love of Ghibli Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Shock Master does prevent your opponent from playing the game. Its just that a lot of times you want to use the 3 level 4s for something else. Ergo its more of a commitment. As for this card it is the same result you prevent your opponent from playing a particular part of the game...because you can. This is actually a lot because its a decent wall and it literally hinders your opponent. You can make an Xyz to bounce or negate Catastor and Gachi's effect. Not this thing. With those pretty much non-existent requirements its pretty splashable. Seeing as most archetypes now-a-days are of the same type to begin with. I think it is tipping the scale towards the overpowered side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
