Discussion: Castle Gate

[Exiro]

Castle Gate' date=' so the idea is that if he is in ATK mode, the gates are 'open' and both players can deal damage right?

Well, then it's a stupid gate, because you can just burn one monster per turn, while your opponent can storm into the gate and attack your life points directly with all his monsters. Also, if you want to burn, you've got to tribute that monster for some reason :\

And it says original ATK, which just sucks. The lvl 5- monster with high Original ATK I can think of is King of the Skull Servants, especially with the new Servant in LoD.

 

This card would go very well with Spirit Barrier to close the gate for the opponent and open it for youself, and maybe a HoCW to make him a little more invincible, but Vortex is still used much and doesn't target so he would die anyways by that.

smart move, tribute a 5000 skull servant to inflict 0 damage to opponent

 

Huh? King's effect changes his original atk so that would work, wouldn't it? Or is it just always the printed atk of the monster?

 

Remember how Call of the Haunted can Special Summon Wildheart?

 

King of the Skull Servant's effect is a Continuous effect, which means it needs to be on the field to work. After being tributed, it's in the graveyard.

 

Ah, thanks for pointing it out. Well then he just sucks.
