Ghostrick [NECH-JP090]


Recommended Posts

As it was pointed out, alt win condition aside the card looks really good. After reading the card I thought if you could splash this + 1~2 generic Ghostrick S/T in Rank 4 Decks in a similar way "Myrmeleo + Trap Holes" engine is used, but after looking at available Ghostrick S/Ts I realized that all of them rely on Ghostricks to work, so this has no chances of being viable. And even if there was one, running 1~2 Ghostrick S/Ts only because you can search them with a generic Xyz seems gimmicky, unless said S/T was truly worth it.

 

I doubt Ghostricks will get Level 4s, specifically Fairies because flavor, but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised if they do get 2 or 3.

I see alt wins on monsters like these more as a mark that says "This is the ultimate monster of the archetype, guys." than anything to actually seriously attempt.

 

I'm just glad they didn't give her Destiny Leo Syndrome, and actually gave her a wickedly useful effect, as well as allowing her to be Summoned indirectly by the deck's normal Xyz Summon tactics.  Number 88 wishes he had that.

Warewolf does burn damage
Skeleton mills
Whateverthefuck house makes them into direct attackers
Headless Horseman runs over things by battle.
Alucard clears backrow/monsters
Ghost-guy is a draw engine
They all can Xyz
They don't have a Tuner; Clearly they are hipsters
They have protection
They have interruption
They have an Xyz that uses another Xyz

Seems like they just tacked on the alt-win just to say Ghostricks have done everything.

Regardless, the alt-win is still pointless, though, I see the "benefit" of it, since Tricks can stall pretty easily. Though, why would you want to?

I gotta say I love the art and that this looks like a solid card for the archetype.

Rank-Up from any Ghostrick Xyz into a 2000 ATK searcher with no real drawback (unlike Magician's MP2 clause or M7's no effect drawback). Good.

 

Also, I am glad to hear the overall opinion in here is that the win condition is pretty much not gonna happen. People were freaking out at other sites. I think that win condition is gonna be a fun challenge somewhere somehow, more like a little bonus to entertain ourselves if we feel like doing it at some point.

I'm pretty sure at least 1 person out there will try to Safe Zone this card. Though this card is just a vanilla if it focuses on it, and there's probably more of a chance to complete Destiny Board than this anyways....

This is of course a ridiculous combo. Most of these are. But it’s funny.

 

Prerequisites:
Graveyard must have:
- 3 “Frog” monsters
- 3 Ronintoadin
- 1 Plaguespreader Zombie
Your Field must have:
- A card treating your monsters as Zombie-Type (Zombie World is good.)
Your hand must have:
- Rank-Up Magic Astral Force
- Scroll of Bewitchment (or Hidden Armory)
- 1 other card

How to pull off this combo
- Special Summon all 3 Ronintoadins
- Place the other card in your hand on top of your Deck to Special Summon Plaguespreader Zombies
- Using the 3 Ronintoadins and the Plaguespreader Zombie, Special Summon 2 Ghostrick Socuteboss
- Overlay both Socutebosses for their own respective Ghostrick no Datenshi
- Overlay both Ghostrick Datenshi for Miraioh Hope
- Equip Miraioh Hope with Scroll, call DARK-Attribute
- Use Astral Force to Rank-Up Miraioh into Ghostrick Alucard
- Overlay Ghostrick Alucard for Ghostrick no Datenshi

Proceed to collect Salt and Rage.

 

 

I'm crying.

 

Miraioh Hope = Future Hope in case you didn't know.

Except it doesn't say the Xyz Materials are attached like every other "Xyz Summon this card using other Xyz monsters" card.

And no other Xyz Monster has had them summoned as an actual summoning condition.

 

Just wait for rulings.

Ghostrick Dorklord is the finalized name the org decided on after some input.

While Ghostrick Failin' Angel's probably a more literal translation, its name is a character or two short of the OCG Name for Darklords- Fallen Angel. So Dorklord was chosen on the off chance they make something that's rklord or w/e support.
