cr47t Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 I don't have a picture (If someone can post one on a reply on this thread I would appreciate it), so here`s the card`s text/effect:Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be Special Summoned (from your hand) by shuffling all monsters in your Graveyard into the Deck, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. When this card declares an attack: Send 1 monster from your hand or Deck to the Graveyard. This card gains 1000 ATK for each Normal Monster in your Graveyard. If this face-up card would leave the field, banish it instead. If there are 5 different "Forbidden One" cards in your Graveyard that were sent there by this card's effect, you win the Duel.I used to use this but had a hard time pulling off his autowin effect. (I don't run this card anymore, nor Exodia.) But I found his Summoning method (the way you SS him) useful when I was running out of monsters and/or when my Graveyard was filling up with monsters.Discuss.

evilfusion Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 That's actually probably one of the best uses of it (the recycling monsters). The auto-win is way too hard to pull off because it's so vulnerable. Not only does it start with 0 ATK, but it only gains 1000 at a time as you send the Exodia limbs to the Graveyard. The best way to do the auto-win is Diffusion Wave Motion, to attack all your opponent's monsters. Ideally, 3 of them are Ojama Tokens so you won't accidently ram Exodius into something that can kill you. But such a Deck is running 5 Exodia cards, this, and Diffusion Wave Motion so...not consistent at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play this in TGs, mill Dandylion/Redox for /SARCASM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 True, but Ojama Trio works nicely for giving Exodius 3 monsters to attack that cannot kill him. If the opponent has 2 other monsters, by the time Exodius attacks one of them, it has 3000 ATK, about to be 4000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, would this card be "broken" if it let you draw after shuffling your monsters back into the deck? Like Mega Pot of Avarice but not really.

Toffee. Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 but it only gains 1000-Actually it's +1000 per Normal monster.So be pro, and use Snake Rain to send like 4 Normal Reptiles to the Graveyard, for an instant +4000 ATK.+5000 if you Discarded a Normal Reptile to activate it.

Throw Exodia and Friends in and you have a tier one deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 If you want Exodius as a beatstick, you should run a Deck without the Exodia limbs to accomplish that. Consistency matters. Do you think it could be possible for it`s effect (the recycling monsters) to be useful in a Lightsworns deck when the graveyard is almost filled with monster cards? And that (the vulnerability) is one of the reasons I had a hard time using the auto win. Not really. Lightsworn WANT their monsters in the Graveyard, and they have things like Beckoning Light (I know it's considered bad now) to recover specific ones they milled by mistake.

Wildflame Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Good card. The recycling is very welcome in some decks now that Avarice is gone, and a certain Railgun loves the fact that it's a Level 10. Never actually won with its effect though.

Toffee. Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Throw Exodia and Friends in and you have a tier one deck.Exodius has to be the one to mill the limbs, for it to count towards the auto-win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cr47t Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Lightsworn WANT their monsters in the GraveyardI meant in case a Lightswon user`s field is filled with Lightsworns and they have only 3 or so cards in their deck, Exodius could shuffle a bunch of the graveyard in to the Deck to delay the possible loss-by-mill.

I mean on a serious level. Since, you know, they run an overabundance of boss monsters and what-not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heraldry_lord Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Still peeved that Exodius is missing the "Cannot be destroyed by battle" clause, but it was made in different times so eh. I find it funny that his best ability is his Summoning Condition, and not his actual effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
