3-Hump Lacooda

[Sora1499]

 

Oh, how YGO artwork has changed.  The new art style is more aesthetically appealing to the eye, but it severely lacks flavor, whereas the old art style was saturated with it, and rather fun and whimsical.

[newhat]

Back then there were more Normal Monsters, so flavor was more of an issue.

 

Now it's like Pokeymans: make the card look like its effect.

Usual post that talk about discussed card:

Back in the day he was too hard to make 3 of.

Then by the time we were able to, it wasn't really.... viable anymore (well, it never was, but still).

 

It's a shame, I always loved this card. Along with Baloon Lizard and D.D. Crazy Beast.

 

Art:

There is also that even when there were effects, cards were more standalone kind of cards, so it had to contain the flavor by itself most of the time. Nowadays you see the archetype as a whole instead.

 

I must admit though, there was less sensorship and more dark undertones. Konami wouldn't really do a Gillotine card nowadays, OCG art or not.

Which makes it apparent that the flavor of the older days cannot really be brought back.

When I look back, I don't think it's even the same game at all xD

Why couldn't you just tribute all 3? I mean really, what are you going to do with 1 3-Hump Lacooda?

[Zazubat]

Well, if you manage to get them all out, Tribute 2, get 3 cards, CotH 1 and get 3 more cards. It's too much work though, and you probably have better ways to do this. I guess another way to do this would be to banish all of them, and then return them with Return from the Different Dimension. Though again, too much work for what it really does.

This leaves you with precisely 2 3-Hump Lacoodas. You'll need 2 CotH.

Oh, I didn't read that you needed all 3. I thought you just needed to Tribute 2. Oops. That makes this pretty hard to use :/

[Sleepy]

Outdatedly speaking, you coud Rescue Cat + Inferno Reckless into getting 3 Lacoodas + 1 Airbellum.

So you ended up with Goyo/Bionac + 3 cards in hand.

 

Hmm.... I should have tried that back in the day.....

[D.A._Sakuyamon]

Cards has silly but cooleo art. The effect is ehh though.

[-Berserker-]

Special summon 1, and another 2 with IRS. Tribute 2 to draw 3.

Tribute the third for THE TYRANT NEPTUNE and copy name.

Summon 1 with Symbols of Heritage, and 2 with IRS. Tribute 2 again to draw 3.

Monster Reborn 1. Tribute 2 to draw 3 (except NEPTUNE).

Discard Redox and Chain Dog to summon 1 again from grave, and use your third IRS to summon 2 more. Tribute 2 to draw 3.

Call of the Haunted 1. Summon Chain Dog. Tribute 2 (except NEPTUNE) to draw 3.

Use another Symbols to summon another.

 

You have drawn 15 cards and have 1600+500+500 of attack power in your field. Of course there are ways of continuing, but it depends of what you draw with all those draws.

This Lacooda is better cause PAWMAN

[TheTurtleOnceCalledGod]

It's a +1 if you manage to get them all to the field.
