Because I Have Fallen In Love With Dustons [Accumulated Dustons]

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Accumulated Dustons

DARK/Fiend/Tuner/Level 1/0 ATK/1000 DEF
Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Cannot be Special Summoned, except by the effect of "House Duston". Once per turn: You can target 1 face-up "Duston" you control; it gains Levels up to the number of face-up "Dustons" you control. Cannot be used as a Fusion, Synchro, or Xyz Material for a Summon, unless the other Fusion Material, Xyz Material, or Synchro Material Monster(s) are a "Duston" monster(s).

 

Discuss.

No point in using it to Synchro. Boosting White Duston to 4, 5 or 6 doesn't produce anything spectacular. I guess if you stacked White Dustons?

 

On the other hand it can make Rank 6 Xyzes with another copy of itself. Maybe.

You apparently don't play Dustons, my friend.

To be fair, no one really plays Dustons.

I always found Dustons to be an interesting archetype. Unfortunately, they're one of the slower ones that easily get run over if you don't draw House Duston on the the first turn.

But like newhat said, the only card this would actually be able to interact with fluently is either White Duston or Starduston. And you would only be able to make their levels 6 at most. Even though it can open Synchro plays, I don't think it's a very good card to add in the deck, since most of the Dustons counteract any type of Extra Deck summoning. I mean, it can still clog the opponent, but y'know.

1. Activate House.

2. SS one of each color, save White, to opponent's side of the field.

3. SS 2-3 Accumulated and 1-2 White to yours.

4. Use Accumulated on each other to get Synchro/Xyz combination you want.

A-Duston cannot Xyz over 6. If you target a Duston twice it will no longer Level-match the other one.

 

Moreover, you are not likely to get out 5 Dustons at once unless your opponent Torrentials for some ungodly reason.

 

As for the Synchro...Since A-Duston can't be tuned with a Synchro Monster, you are going to have dead cards on the field at the end if you bring out more than 2.

A-Duston gives Levels UP TO the number of Dustons you have.
So if you have 4 Dustons, a Duston can become Level 2, 3, 4, or 5.
Use this effect twice on the same target to make Star Eater or Leo.
Also, Torrential? Your opponent can't use Torrential during the Damage Step.

Didn't notice that. All right then.

 

Also, Torrential? Your opponent can't use Torrential during the Damage Step.

Houseduston triggers when it's destroyed by your opponent, not necessarily by battle. Unless your opponent wipes both fields with Torrential, they will probably control a monster when Houseduston dies, leaving you with only 4 Duston Summons, though it's irrelevant if you draw White Duston.

Thank you for the explanation. It makes more sense to me now. I also didn't notice the "up to" clause.

 

I kind of wish there was a Duston-Specific Synchro.

It's not like you're on a site called Yugioh Card Maker. You couldn't possibly create a Duston Synchro. I mean, make card on a card making site? That's crazy, isn't it?

Fair enough.
