Can be Pendulum Summoned from your Graveyard in Defense Position, but it is banished when it leaves the field or is used as an Xyz Material. If your Life Points would become 0 by Effect Damage, you can shuffle 1 card from your hand into the Deck, then send this card from your Deck to the Graveyard, and if you do, your Life Points become the amount you had at the start of the turn, and Effect Damage becomes 0 for the rest of the turn.

 

Image is a proxy image. I haven't been able to draw this monster satisfactory enough in any version so I'll work on that later.

 

As for the effect, it's an anti FTK ("First Turn Kill" for those who don't know). It's impact grows weaker the longer the Duel lasts (because it's not the same to recover 8000 Life against a Mass Driver FTK than to recover 800 that Gagaga Cowboy tried to finish you off with).

 

The damage however makes this card an iffy tech at best, especially as a high Level monster with mediocre stats, so it had to get something else. As you can see: Yes it can be a free plus even in multiples, but it requires enough setup IMO.

 

Yes, this card activates from wherever (hand/field). Which is the most problematic point about the nature of it's effect.

 

Thoughts?

As far as I know, there isn't any restrictions on what you can do with Pendulum Summoned monsters, so this guy can be used to spam Rank 6 Xyz Monsters. That's as much as I see going for it, really, except maybe OPT Tribute Fodder/Synchro assistance, but both of those are kinda iffy reasons to run a thing like this w/ Pendulum Monsters. Seems fine for now, but realistically, need to see where Pendulum monsters are going.
