Bringerofcake Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 It's not much better than the first king artorgius, but I'd run it and excaliburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Althemia Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 OG Artorigus is better when you have the set-up because it's a 3000 Heavy Storm every turn. This feels as if it's alright when you don't have it, but then it requires you to use Excaliburn for the most part... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 The effect is good, since Noble Knights have no other in-theme monster removal. And it floats, and doesn't costs you a Noble Arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Where is my Medraut Xyz? Card is underpowered, it is monster removal but not potent enough to justify weak ATK and difficult summoning conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pchi Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Where is my Medraut Xyz? Card is underpowered, it is monster removal but not potent enough to justify weak ATK and difficult summoning conditions. Medraut + Noble Arms is all you need. I don't see how it's so difficult to summon him. And his ATK is quickly increased by the Noble Arms equipped to him. You can also summon him with Excaliburn, if needed.

And his ATK is quickly increased by the Noble Arms equipped to him. You can also summon him with Excaliburn, if needed. For starters, for that to work, you need to be running Black Laundsallyn, who's lolbad. Excaliburn is a better option, but even most RUM Numbers get +300. Plus this guy has to compete with Volcasaurus, Tiras, and Crystal Zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, you're completely wrong about this requiring Laundsalynn. Have you read Borz? Medraut -> Grab Borz -> Equip the Arm that was on Medraut to Borz Borz searches as a Lv. 5 DARK -> Gets another Arm, equip that to Medraut and mill the other 2 Overlay for R5 Borz doesn't pop the arms it equips to itself.

Laundsallyn is terrible to draw into, you're forced to -1 just to bring him out. Yeah you can bring him out by Medraut, but why would I do that when, as you said, Borz is a thing? Besides, that doesn't change the fact that I should have incentive to go for Artorigus over Volca (who also burns on destruction) or Freezadon and then Crystal Zero Lancer (a 3700 beater who has to be killed 4 times).

You mean incentive besides this being a target for all the noble knight support? That it has a summon on destruction floater ability? That it isn't a 2 card xyz combo?

That it isn't a 2 card xyz combo? Yes. Rank 5 is already one of the best in the game. This guy has to compete with Volca-Gaia and Lancer already; if they get LV5s who stay light, add Pleiades to that list. Also, regular Artogirus is easier to summon, hits Spells/Traps, and all for a mere 200 less ATK. Yes this one kills monsters, but when Artogirus is hitting the field at 3000+ ATK that's almost never a problem. I will give this one its due on the float though. Now, if this card clocked in at 2500 base, I'd change my tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonk Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Playtesting this card has shown that it is better than what most people on this thread gave it credit for. It's the powerhouse of Medraut/Borz plays that becomes a complete monster because it can grab what Borz milled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementuo Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 After a lot of testing myself, I'm finding that my favorite (And one of the best) turn 1 plays is Medraut + Caliburn, which generally ends in this guy with Caliburn, Destiny, and Excaliburn at 2700 ATK (A lot of times I'll end up with a Gallatin in hand anyways and equip that too) and me at 9500 life. Honestly, that's a pretty hard field to overcome when even a field nuke only drops Excaliburn. Also, note that Excaliburn can be used to rank this down too.

玄魔の王 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Having play-tested this guy, I'm gonna eat some crow for my prior opinions. He's an amazing boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
