Cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. Must be Special Summoned (from your hand) by having 10 or more monsters in your Graveyard, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. Once per turn: You can Special Summon 1 Level 8 or higher Fairy-Type monster from your hand or Graveyard, but its effects are negated and its ATK becomes 4000.

Besides the occasional Torrential/Mirror/D-Prison.

Tried running this in Agents like the newbfag that I am. Needless to say, it worked well when I was able to get if off, and it didn't work when I couldn't get it off.

Stating the obvious. Jk jk. You could always Trap Stun to ensure the hit.

I remember when the episode with this card came out. Specifically, the description for the episode said that Z-ONE brings out a monster with 20,000 ATK. I practically threw a fit pointing out how broken the anime Temporal Machine Gods were. Not only were they all immune to destruction and prevented damage, but they all had hilariously OP effects that screwed over opposing resources or did burn, or BOTH, and if you SOMEHOW survived all 10 of them being used, they whip out a 20,000 ATK monster.

 

Turns out, Sephylon was even more broken than just being a 20,000 ATK beatstick. It's a 4000 ATK beatstick and SSes 4 other Temporal Machine Gods and gives THEM 4000 ATK. And gains ATK for all their ATK. And can sacrifice one to prevent destruction.

 

However, I always did like the actual RL card. It's pretty much only going to be used in a Lightsworn Deck, as that's the only Deck that can consistently drop 10+ monsters in the Grave at any point in time, barring search chains or other such things. I loved my LS-TMG Deck because it had boss monsters galore. It had Lightsworns as the engine, Judgment Dragon as the primary boss, but could also run Synchros (Glow-Up, Plague, Spore), Metaion for the Fairy to revive and a desperate defense, and Sephylon as the final killer because it pretty much drops 8000 ATK on the board with no warning.

 

Best way to win: JD, nuke Field. SS 2 Sephylon. Each Sephylon SS a Metaion. 19,000 ATK vs an empty field FTW.

This is a weird card from my perspective. It's aa summon condition that takes dedication in the deck but isn't actually hard to set up. I run a Sephylon-Norleras deck beause I love abusing this thing. Other than that, not many decks can set it up, but those that can get a pair of 4000 monsters for no reason.
