Toffee. Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 Pendulum EffectYou cannot Special Summon any monsters, except "Qliphoth" monsters (this effect cannot be negated). Monsters your opponent controls lose 300 ATK.Monster EffectYou can Normal Summon this card without Tributing. If this card was Special Summoned or Normal Summoned without Tributing, its Level becomes 4 and its original ATK becomes 1800. If this card was Normal Summoned, this card is unaffected by effects activated by monsters that have lower original Levels or Ranks than this card's Level. If this card was Tribute Summoned by Tributing a "Qliphoth" monster, it can make a second attack during each Battle Phase, also if it attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage to your opponent.This is honestly one of the silliest cards I have ever seen. Yet, it's just so fascinating to me. Like... Double attacking isn't anything new. Piercing isn't anything new. We've seen combos like this on stuff like Twin Sword Marauder, yea. But what makes this such an oddity to me, is the fact the whole Archetype with this card makes it into something so much more; Tool can search this, the lower Level guys clear the field when they act as Tribute fodder, hell, even your Pendulums boost This/weaken the Opponent's stuff to let this do even more damage. All while it rewards you for playing the Archetype, because of 1 simple restriction they all share. Not to mention that, given the names of the other members, you literally boot-up this card. Just all of this, I find to be amazing.'Course, I've never really seen them in action and/or to their fullest, but I just love the overall idea behind this card.Discuss.

Maeriberii Haan Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 Not that amazing in the long run, really. It's just used to increase your damage output for OTK, but problem is, it doesn't increase much due to being a double tribute. It's a walking 6200 damage, yes. But other tributes can actually solve problems on the board, while this is just a gigantic beatstick. If you're short on monsters, then yes, this card's 6200 damage will really help. Heck, Skill Drain works far better for OTK purpose from my testing. Still a 1-2 of, but it's not as amazing as it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neutrality Man Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 Return of the Monarchs targets, even though Monarch Support kills their recyclibility inherent in being Pendulums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 I'm finding this card super amazing right now. Searching this with Return of the Monarchs is hell crazy. Plus Pendulum Summoning, Tributing them for this can create so much damage. I'm loving this archetype so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expelsword Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNYJBJDMHqQ[/media] This is all I ever think about with these cards. As for using them, I want to, but they look so complex and prohibitive. Just... walls of text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirReal Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 I think people often forget that most extra decks do not have an out to this guy. If his ATK is different, you can't kill him with Ragna. You can't steal him with 11. You can't shuffle him with Castel. Hell, this guy don't care about Black Rose or Exciton because he is UNAFFECTED by monsters with a level or rank lower than 8 if tribute summoned! That alone is a scary effect. Make it a double attacking piercer for icing on that cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
