Toffee. Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 You can discard Machine-Type monster(s) whose total Levels equal 8 or more, then Special Summon this card (from your hand or Graveyard). When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard: Target 1 card your opponent controls; destroy that target. Before resolving an opponent's monster effect that targets this face-up card, look at your opponent's hand and discard 1 card from their hand.You know something is wrong when Dark Eruption is basically another Monster Reborn for this card. That aside, I find it quite amusing how this card has a ridiculous amount of revival-cards for it, and not just random Level 8 Machines. Add to it, it has high ATK, it's own forms of self defense, and so on, and so on. So in general, it's a pretty cool boss.Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Why run Force when you can run Cannon? In the case that you can't manage to draw into a gearframe OR a fortress, these things can be pretty funny. OT: I literally have a whole (competitive) deck that is based completely on throwing multiples of this card at my opponent, and if they make it to my M2, overlay for one of the many amazing rank 7's. This is one of the few structure deck cover cards (Poseidra Being another?) that is actually good. And by good, I mean the new template for machine decks.

Toffee. Posted August 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I mean the new template for machine decks.I actually wouldn't go that far.I mean, if you can consistently play Fortress, then sure, but not everything Machine based needs to use This as it's centerpiece.

(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 If a deck already has a point, like ancient gears (nope, it is great in them), it doesn't need Fortress, but Machina Fortress has a habit of making bad decks good.

Azuh Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I play Gimmick Puppets without this, and I think they're still pretty strong. That aside, I really wish other cool archetypes such as Magnet Warriors got something as cool as Fortress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I'm currently playing it in Gadgets and it's pretty much a win condition, it forces your opponent to lose so much advantage just to get round it, especially if I equip Gearframe to it.

TheTurtleOnceCalledGod Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 The sad thing is, people nowadays will big eye it to take control, then make another rank 7. Discarding from the hand does not hurt that deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bull3tM0nk3y Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 I love this guy. I have a Mech.dek for YGOPro/DN that has this guy as an easy way to deal 5000 ATK in one turn. Hell, if I can, I can use 9000 ATK with Gear Dragon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 The structure Deck was horrible, but the boss was godly. And isn't Fortress stated to be the Structure Deck boss that began the "Structure Deck bosses are ridiculous" trend? Because off-hand, there was Fortress, then Hyperion. Then Grapha. Then Poseidra, then Garunix. Also Dragunity Leviathan. All of those are really good cards intended to support mediocre archetypes, which in some cases, made those archetypes ridiculously good. Fortress is only truly vicious because it supports all Machines. Grapha and Hyperion are still archetype-specific, and Grapha...Grapha trumps the list of ridiculous bosses.

To be fair the deck this came in gave us Gearframe and Peacekeeper too which are both decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gadgets are better on their own right now for xyz spam but this is ok for budget deck Also whoever suggested that big eye would steal it well then i wouldnt summon it against dragons unless i had a good backrow or hand traps.

The only real issue is extra deck space, I literally only have room for 1 X and 1 King Feral Imp but most of the time that's all I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

玄魔の王 Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Malefic Stardust is a Malefic. Notice how Gravekeepers run it. Being a member of an archetype and a boss is different from being an archetype boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
