T.G. Dancing Elf

Retraining Dancing Elf into something useful.

It doesn't make loops

You can control only 1 face-up “T.G. Dancing Elf”. When you Special Summon a Synchro Monster: You can Special Summon this card from your hand or Graveyard. If this card is Special Summoned with this effect, banish it when it leaves the field. You can only use the effect of “T.G. Dancing Elf” once per turn.

Oh boy, another easy way for Synchro to take over the field, and I have to say, you keep it fairly balanced all around even if it will get you some powerful Synchros quite easily. Combo with Level Eater and get yourself a Fomula, go for Accel. Can be extreamly useful. I will say, the fact that it's for a SS, not a Synchro can make it pretty broken at times. I also like the art on this card.

Thanks. :)

First off, its limitation is laughable, to say the least. You can only control 1... Okay? You still get a floating Lv. 1 Tuner. Then there's the fact that it banishes itself, which is, again, a laughable drawback because Leviair exists. There's a reason Spore and Glow-Up Bulb are once per duel, and one of them is currently banned. There's no problem with an infinitely recurring tuner, supposing you can get it back in the grave, right? Naaaah.

 

Now on to flavor: This is a complete and total SNAFU. T.G. monsters are Cyborgs or Androids. Each and every one of them was also treated as a Machine in the anime because of this flavor. Yet, you decided that taking a damn elf that has nothing to do with machinery and throwing it in the archetype was a good idea. This isn't even considering the fact that all main deck T.G.s come in pairs, and some of the Extra Deck T.G.s do as well. Warwolf goes with Striker, Cyber Magician and Rush Rhino, Catapult Dragon and Eagle thing, Wonder Magician and Gladiator, etc. Where's the partner for this card? In fact, where's the even slightest bit of flavor?

 

Honestly, this is one of those cards that should just be scrapped entirely. The flavor, the execution, and the design are all awful, and the card isn't remotely balanced. You could "fix it" by making it Once Per Duel, but that's also a fairly mediocre design choice at best, and it doesn't fix the absolute lack of taste.

Actually, not all of them have pairs. Drill Fish, Gear Zombie, Metal Skeleton do not have partners. I agree most are based on Machines and Cyborgs, but I think that depends on what you see the image as. I think it is a decent card, but could use work. I don't really like the artwork... well, that is just me. =/
