Aix Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 When this card destroys a monster by battle: Draw 2 cards. Other monsters you control cannot attack the turn you activate this effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Card is too good, arguably overpowered in my opinion. Is 1 Level lower than Monarchs, Jinzo, Vanity/Majesty's Fiend, and yet has 50 more ATK than them. It gets Stormfroth support. It outclasses other Level 5+ DARKs with draw power such as Darknight Parshath, and, as far as I know, although the latter are not even close to becoming relevant, outclassing existing cards is not a sign of good card design. Yes, unlike Parshath this locks other monsters form attacking, but I would say that an additional card draw outweights the drawback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 You know there's a old Vanilla with the same name, right Axi? For reference: http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Headless_Knight Anyway, it's essentially a triggering Pot of Greed when it kills something; but locks whatever other monsters you have from attacking. Unless I'm misinterpreting this, you could hypothetically use 1-2 other monsters to attack your opponent, then have this strike a monster and draw; then lock out whatever other monsters never attacked yet; thus negating that drawback of his. Yeah, it needs to be toned down; especially with the amount of support it gets. (Voltex already explained it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless I'm misinterpreting this, you could hypothetically use 1-2 other monsters to attack your opponent, then have this strike a monster and draw; then lock out whatever other monsters never attacked yet; thus negating that drawback of his. You can't do that, just like you can't Special Summon and then use Pot of Duality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 How's 2150 ATK? 2150 should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 You could even get away with like 2200 or 2300, but that might be pushing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newhat Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 I dunno what y'all are talking about. It's strong but it's still a Tribute monster that needs to win a battle to trigger. It's unusually high ATK for its Level but there's nothing abusive about its effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rooster Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 1 problem. What if I do not want to draw any cards? That is a drawback in itself. But people here seem to disrespect the importance of DEF which offends me DX WAAAAAAAA. Mabye a drawback of not being possible to Special Summon would work, since that can be abusable. The pic is pretty awesome. 8/10, would definitely recommend in appropriate decks as an easy to summon high ATK beater for a LV5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
