BANZAI!!!! Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Lore: 1 Tuner Synchro Monster + 2 or more non-Tuner Synchro Monsters Must be Synchro Summoned , and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. This card's maximum number of attacks per Battle Phase equals the number of non-Tuner monsters used as its Synchro Material . Once per turn , during either player's turn, when a card or effect is activated : You can negate the activation, and if you do, destroy it. When this card l eaves the field : You can Special Summon 1 " Shooting Star Dragon " from your Extra Deck . Legendary collection dropped a few days ago, so i figured it was sort of relevant to talk about this card again, now that its more common. discuss.

-Dom- Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Its just the card that keeps being relevant - now with Necloths (unless the translation for kaleido was the other one after all). Even seen it be used in some weird Yang Zing variants, though Im not sure if that's relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultravires Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 The Exa-Beetle combo is ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 The Exa-Beetle combo is ass. Why? Can you explain a bit into it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Why? Can you explain a bit into it? Likely because it gives you a free Shooting Star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultravires Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Why? Can you explain a bit into it? It's a waste of 2 Brio, takes up Extra space that's better off being used for Rank 4s and if they get over it you're completely boned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that too. such a waste of resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Well, it's something. I remember facing a weird Shaddoll-Synchron hybrid that summoned this first turn. Next turn it summon Midrash, and next turn after I handled the Midrash and Shooting star, it pulls a BLS and win. But, ranting aside, I wonder how an ideal competitive Quasar deck would look like, concept-wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebuchet MS Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 To this day, the only Deck I've seen that properly Summons Quasar is Synchron Decks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Progenitor Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 To this day, the only Deck I've seen that properly Summons Quasar is Synchron Decks. Done it several times in pure T.G. cuz they are obviously Tier -0.2876 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expelsword Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 To this day, the only Deck I've seen that properly Summons Quasar is Synchron Decks. I played a Psychic deck that got it out a little while ago. Fabled and Laval can actually do it, but they got killed by the lists, so that's not happening. And then you consider that Synchrons are getting new support soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synchrons are definitely going to be the new synchro archtype again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 It's a waste of 2 Brio, takes up Extra space that's better off being used for Rank 4s and if they get over it you're completely boned. I'm still alright with it personally. Quasar (Clausolas-Trish or Valkyrus-Unicore) or Star (Claus-Gungnir or Brio-Uni) can be burned for Mirror anyway, and Exa and Gaia Dragon are just two spaces. I have won a couple games with it; but yeah, it's an inefficient play unless you can go for game. Meanwhile, remember the old Fishborg deck that could put this and Halberd on the board together? Scary times. Here's hoping Sifr lives up to the family name and faces full-life consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 The whole point of the combo is that you push for game, or very rarely, make the combo with a vanities in hand, but eh. In a game state where the winning deck(s) is an OTK-capable deck(s), I think you should want to kill them before they kill you. The combo is fine, but it's not the end goal of the deck, nor is it the main thing to do. It's literally like 2-3 spaces. That wouldn't be that much better spent on R4s.

Ultravires Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Chain into Releaser is still better than Beetle into Shooting Star, and that's awful too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The former is a lot less consistent and the payoff still sucks ass, IMO. The Quasar combo is ridiculously easy and consistent to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The former is a lot less consistent and the payoff still sucks ass, IMO. The Quasar combo is ridiculously easy and consistent to do. The former can be set up and win a mirror turn 1. The latter wins nothing unless you have a clear field, which just doesn't happen with the way the OCG meta is right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been pushing the whole Shaddoll Quasar idea. Once Shekihinga comes out, it would be at least interesting to see it at a regional since it is Shaddolls. A competitive Quasar deck tho, solely based on Quasar, now that is something I would want to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
