Xyz Shift (ANIME)

[Northern Sage]

 

 

Send 1 Xyz Monster you control to the Graveyard; Special Summon 1 Xyz Monster from your Extra Deck with the same Rank as the sent monster, then take all the Xyz Materials that were attached to the sent monster and attach them to the Summoned monster as Xyz Materials.

Discuss.

So...I'm guessing Yuma uses this over Dextra's Night Butterfly Assassin?

 

It seems rather hilarious actually, being a legitimate Xyz Swap.  In fact, Dyson Sphere into Heart-eartH Dragon is hilarious, and it's searchable via Generation Force.

Can you go into non-generic Xyzs in generic builds with this? That might make it interesting. Also, it means you can go into a 3 material Rank monster from you 2; which again, is interesting.

[Lonk]

You know that they are going to nerf it by saying that the Xyz Monster must require generic materials to summon.  Even then, Heart-eartH is more playable if this were released with that nerf being the only nerf.

Oh yeah, it can do that.

On the other hand, it isn't a proper Xyz Summon.

Huh, I had an idea like this some time ago, and then the anime just makes it unbalanced.

 

This card is nuts for Rank 7-8s, or for anything really. I wonder how it will actually be.

[-Berserker-]

It gives more use to those XYZ that don't use all their materials, like Atlandis or Gaia Charger (OMG BROKEN!). This could be released with some restriction.

Hadn't noticed. Make Big Eye > Control a monster > Make second Big Eye to repeat OR make Drakossac and make tokens.

 

I'd personally use it for Genoma Heritage's use in more generic builds, or for same ranks with too many materials.

Does every card in the Anime get a release? Like at least those that arn't gimmicks? Because I have a feeling like they would really need to fix this card if that was the case, as I didn't even think about making the same guy over and over again. Like that, you could totaly lock your opponent with Shock Master. It needs a big cost + OPT clause on it.

I actually was thinking there totally needed to be a card like this, that let you give up an Xyz for an Xyz of the same Rank, similar to the card that does that for Synchros. Although it would probably need to be changed to an Xyz of the same Type, or some other sort of restriction. The ability to turn a Rank 4 into ANY Rank 4 and give it all the Materials is broken with cards like Shock Master or Laggia.

[Toffee.]

Chain mills a Normal -> Swap it for Emeral -> Revive that Normal.
Dragosack detaches for tokens + tributes a token to destroy something -> Swap it for 2nd Dragosack -> Same move as before -> Detach for Tokens.
Utopia V destroys something -> Swap it for V(without detaching Utopia earlier) -> Utopia V destroys something else.
etc

On one hand it could lead to cool plays without being that busted, on the other hand it could lead to ridiculous plays that are busted(Like Big Eye, for example)

Really, the only truly broken part is the fact it gets the Materials. At most, it should only use itself as a Material similar to Xyz Reborn, and the original Xyz's Materials should go to the Grave. Or it should specify of a different name. Or it should be restricted to Monsters of the same Type.

 

But most likely, it won't be released at all. Synchro Change made you banish the Synchro and the Summoned monster's effects were negated. They would need to do similar with this to prevent the absurd level of abuse this would allow.

The fact that it gets materials is arguably less potent because it doesn't allow a double detach off of anything, which can really be a blessing to some decks. If you transform a 3+ mat monster, good for you. Except Shock Master, OTKs are not fun.

 

Hopefully this isn't released, especially as is, but I have a feeling it will.

You could just instant 4 with Tinplate Goldfish and go into Laggia or something.
