~British Soul~ Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 PRIO-JP035 FIRE/Pyro/Effect You can Tribute Summon this card by Tributing 1 Tribute Summoned monster. When this card is Tribute Summoned: Look at your opponent’s hand and discard 1 card. If it was a monster, also inflict 200 damage to your opponent for each Level that monster has. If this card was Tribute Summoned by Tributing a FIRE monster, add this additional effect. ● Inflict 1000 damage to your opponent. 2800/1000 discuss?

Aerion Brightflame Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Well that throws up the pattern. It could have a Fist Engine using it and supporting it, which is very nice. Other wise it's less powerful than I thought it would be. But being able to look at the hand is still very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Its pretty nice. But still, I feel it needed more of an upgrade. Then again you do get to see the hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 So the discard is not random, and you burn 200 x Level. And if you used only Fires, it does an extra 1000. I see this still being used in Monarch Decks, but ignoring the Fire effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Somehow this seems really weak after Mobius... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Somehow this seems really weak after Mobius... I agree, but wouldn't it be a bit OP if it discarded 2? Or unfair, to say the least. Can't wait to see the card of him killing Blaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goddamnit names are a pain Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I get that, but the second half could have been stronger. What would you have done to make it so? More damage? Blow something up on the field as a reward? I don't think there is much that could have been done. 1500-2000 Damage is still a bit too much. I only said "blow something up" because it is FIRE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goddamnit names are a pain Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Ouch. A bit much, but I suppose it has its own weaknesses. Like having to choose between a boss at 1 or a mini at 3. Now, with that there, you would drop the 100 damage right? It really doesn't need it then.

ihop Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Pheww thank god it doesn't discard 2. Looking at it it seems pretty balanced, much better than what it could have been with a p. irrelevant second effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I have to admit, this'll look pretty cool in Secret imo (Because we all know it'll be a secret in TCG). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog King Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 This isn't as great as we would of expected but I could still this popping up here or there. Its effects is good but its just that you depend on an already tribute summoned and you don't pull off an effect which would help you push for game and Thestalos itself isnt used so its second effect is pretty useless.

Toffee. Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 You look at your opponent's hand?Interesting addition for Thestalos' Mega counterpart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGATHODAIMON BANGTAIL COW Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 The information you get off of this card's effect, as well as having full control over what you get rid of is a very nice improvement over Thestalos' normal "discard at random and hope fortune smiles on you." Heck, it's literally the same effect as [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Confiscation]a card that may never leave the Forbidden status[/url], but with slight burns and no Life Point cost. Sure, it isn't the predicted Delinquent Duo, but this is still pretty neat, even if a bit underwhelming. The second effect makes this card deal close to an entire fourth of your opponent's initial Life Points to them by discarding a monster, but you would have to go too far out of your way just for it. There aren't any FIRE Frogs, and any FIRE-related swarming strategies have other bosses in mind rather than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I'd tech one in standard monarch deck. the extra 1000 burn won't be too important compared to the confist-esque effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
