Blake Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 The lack of targeting actually makes this thing hilarious, considering how difficult it becomes for the opp to outplay it when it doesn't give a damn how much their board changes 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugendramon Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 It has too many fingers. He's also a reference to anime Ra. because Ra is the sun god hurrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I sometimes wonder how we go from "Hieroglyphic God Dragon - Ennead" to "Hieratic Sun Dragon Overlord of Heliopolis".That aside, it is indeed a pretty amusing card. The fact it doesn't Target is just icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Lost its status as "that rank 8 you play if you can somehow put together 2 8s" to Felgrand, but it's still pretty decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 I like how the card art emphasized its crotch, though there's nothing visible there. Anyway, the fact that the tributing is not a cost made me like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aside, it is indeed a pretty amusing card. The fact it doesn't Target is just icing on the cake. "Heliopolis" is the Greek name for "Hieropolis", the Legendary city in which the Ennead lived. Doesn't make much sense does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 "Heliopolis" is the Greek name for "Hieropolis", the Legendary city in which the Ennead lived. Doesn't make much sense does it?My guess is that because Ennead is a collection of nine deities, it wouldn't make much sense when you consider the fact there are 10 Hieratic monsters(The 2 Seals are the same as the 2 Xyzs, shoosh).

Possibly, but then it still makes no sense to create themselves into a corner like that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cr47t Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 "Hieratic Sun Dragon OP`d lord of HeliOP`dpolis" Better, for some part. It`s hard for me to get around it when my opponent SS`s it, whether it`s in RL or on DN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 "Hieratic Sun Dragon OP`d lord of HeliOP`dpolis" Don't forget I don't see how you would have any real trouble as it has no protection, it's just a 3k beater. Often, you will have used resources to get this out leaving not a lot of stuff to use as fodder. It's quite easy to get around actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 It dropped way too many ranks in the "Rank 8s that Galaxy Decks want to make" hierarchy. It used to be one of the big ones, but Giant Killer, Felgrand, Tachyon, and Prime Photon outclass it severely. That said, it still has tricks with Photon Sanctuary as the Tributes. Of course, the bigger issue is that Galaxy Decks really struggle to maintain resources, and giving up 2 Level 8s to Summon this, and then Tribute MORE of your resources to hit cards means you're either pushing for game, or your opponent has something particularly troubling.
