Blake Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 4 Stars/LIGHT/Dragon-Type - Effect/2000 ATK/1200 DEF {{When this card attacks a Dragn-Type monster, its effect is negated and it gains 1000 ATK during the Damage Step only. This card cannot declare an attack unless the attack target is a Dragon-Type monster.}} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zazubat Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 More Galaxy support? Seriously, 2K body with a 3K possibility. At least it's horrible because of it's condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 This is called "Reverse Buster Syndrome" in my book. This is when a monster is given unnecessary restrictions on its ability to attack and usually doesn't even have its perks. The fact it's another Kaito monster being hit with it is a bit annoying. I'm thrilled that it's a Galaxy, giving it Galaxy support and has 2000 ATK. The fact it's not specific as anti-Galaxy-Eyes is also a plus, as it now negates any Dragon that it battles. The wording posted is very awkward, but clearly it's meant to say the attack target is negated and Dragun gains 1000. But it can't attack non-Dragons, which greatly restricts it. It's very similar to Reverse Buster in that Reverse Buster could only attack facedown monsters and didn't even have the +500 effect that made it non-archetype Galaxy-Eyes support in the first place. This is related to the Galaxy archetype, but has no real purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 More Galaxy support? Seriously, 2K body with a 3K possibility. At it's horrible because of it's condition.But Dragons are so commonly seen, and this card can just run most of them over with it's 3000 ATK.

evilfusion Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 But Dragons are so commonly seen, and this card can just run most of them over with it's 3000 ATK. But it only works when it ATTACKS a Dragon. Otherwise, big Dragons run over this with ease, and non-Dragons can ignore it. Also, Elemental Dragons have Big Eye and stuff and don't really care if they're killed by battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Except LADD negates its effect before it's negated. Not necessarily. Current wording suggests it's a continuous effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zazubat Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Except LADD negates its effect before it's negated. Except that it's a Continous Effect, so no. EDIT: Gangrel ninjaed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 It has a comma, not a colon. Zenmaines says If. If/when has nothing to do with Continous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zazubat Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 It doesn't trigger anything, it's a continuous effect that is applied during the damage step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newhat Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 If it weren't a Continuous effect it would do dick all to GEPD since the big glow would just banish itself. Kills Ophion and Laggia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Same issue when ZW- Unicorn Spear first came out. The translation acted like it was a Trigger Effect when it blatantly was an anti-Galaxy-Eyes card. I noted then that it was clearly going to be Continuous. Sure enough, the TCG made it very clear it was a Continuous Effect. This will be the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
