Blake Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 4 Stars/WIND/Machine-Type - Effect/1100 ATK/500 DEF If your opponent controls an Xyz Monster, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). When this card is Special Summoned from the hand: You can target 1 Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls; return that target to the hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Apart from the fact that it only get its eff when its SS'd from the hand, it's pretty much the same as its manga counterpart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 It's not bad, per se, but it's just a bit unnecessary because of how conditional it is. I'd be more likely to run Radius if I want a Level 4 that can be SSed if my opponent controls an Xyz (although Radius becomes Level 8 when it does). I guess it'd be okay in Wind-focused Decks, since Chidori is epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 how conditional it is-Xyz monsters are oh-so common, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Xyz monsters are oh-so common, though. It is, but do you normally tech cards with the expectation that your opponent will Xyz Summon and you will then be able to use this card's potential? It might actually be better than Radius, now that I think of it. Radius needs combo cards to work the way you want it to. This is WIND, again for Chidori and other Wind-related synergy (Birdman especially) and the S/T bounce, while a mild nuisance normally, if timed well, it can truly shift the tide, especially if you have combos to play. Unlike Radius, it doesn't change its level, making it more valuable for the more common Rank 4 cards. So I actually like this card more. There's no limit to the number you can control or times it can use its effect/be Summoned that way. Its low ATK makes it somewhat searchable, alas Sangan is banned. I wish it had only 1000 ATK, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Void Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Might make for a nice tech at 1 or 2 in Gadgets. The effect goes off if special summoned from hand and not just by its effect so you could always go it + Tinplate, can be searched by Gear Gigant, and two of them give access to Chidori. It's simple but I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 PostYea, exactly.If they went first and did a predictable Guide -> Zenmain(srsly, who doesn't open with this when given the chance?)You could just Summon like 2-3 of these, provided you drew that many, and remove a potential backrow that was going to mess up your plays, in addition to giving you another monster.Also, yes, Birdman shenanigans are the best shenanigans.
