Valkyrus Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 2 Tuners + "Red Dragon Archfiend" This card gains 500 ATK for each Tuner monster in your Graveyard. This card cannot be destroyed by the effects of your opponent's Spells, Traps, or monsters. When your opponent's monster declares an attack, you can select it, then remove this card from play and negate the attack. During the End Phase, Special Summon this card that was removed by this effect. Let's talk about the card which is inferior to Beelze of the Diabolic Dragons in every way aside from swinging for game. I just recently found out it's really easy to summon him in Sanctuary Agents too and it's a cute mini boss for the deck so I decided to give it a spot in the Extra. But honestly, it's more like the fanboy in me that wants to use this rather than my experience. Is it worth the space? (it would have been funny if it banished the opponent's attacking monster too (not to mention more usable nowadays)). It would have been an anti-Xyz before they even existed.

asterr259 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Agents? Makes sense. I tried to run him in Yang Zing just to try to be different, but as I executed it I realized that it defeated the purpose of Yang Zing...(If only Bixi was more like Phantom King Hyride ... sigh...) Back when Rekindling was at an all time high, this card was law lol but now it's pretty meh. Beelze is definitely better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildflame Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Non-destroying removal is so common that I feel a bit sad for this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrus Posted August 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Non-destroying removal is so common that I feel a bit sad for this guy. Exactly, it really is sad. It's only adequate for swinging for game and even then, I'd usually go for Wyvern/Beelze unless there's some backrow I'm worried about and I really need that 5000 ATK to go through. I really wish they'd print the Red Nova tuner and buff it so it makes this more usable for Synchro decks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Such a wasted premise. We should have gotten more Double Tuning monsters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expelsword Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 it's a cute mini boss for the deck. I wouldn't call a 5000+ indestructable monster that effectively shields all your other monsters "mini" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrus Posted August 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I wouldn't call a 5000+ indestructable monster that effectively shields all your other monsters "mini" You're right, I just like making it angry. I also just realized this might be a fairly good answer to Apoqliphorth Killer in my Agent build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrus Posted August 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 How do you summon this in Sanctuary Agents? > Have a sanctuary and a Venus on the field > NS Earth > grab Uranus with Earth > make herald of pure light with the shine balls from Venus > SS Uranus > synch Uranus and Venus into RDA > herald of pure light effect to grab Uranus from the grave > SS him again > use Uranus effect to send another Earth from your deck to the graveyard, so he becomes level 2 > synch RDA with Earth and Uranus into Red Nova Dragon not saying it's the easiest or optimal thing to do, but it's doable. Uranus is such an awesome tuner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 So it's not really that easy since you need unused Venus and Earth on the field at the same time, but it's interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

玄魔の王 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 We did: ONE more. I meant a handful. Preferably with looser non-Tuner materials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heraldry_lord Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 ONE more. I meant a handful. Preferably with looser non-Tuner materials. To be fair, it's harder to make a good Double Tuning Synchro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrus Posted August 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 ONE more. I meant a handful. Preferably with looser non-Tuner materials. like "2 tuners + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters?" Damn, Karakuri would be all over that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
