-Noel- Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 3 Level 5 Winged Beast-Type monsters This card can attack your opponent directly. If this card inflicts battle damage to your opponent: You can target 1 monster your opponent controls; destroy it. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; destroy as many Special Summoned monsters your opponent controls as possible, and if you do, inflict 500 damage to your opponent for each monster destroyed by this effect.

Premier Alexander Romanov Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Not really an improvement over Rise Falcon. It attacks directly, and blows up stuff for meager damage. Plus, you have to keep its weak-ass 1000 ATK body safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 yeah. Having 1000 atk hurts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atypical-Abbie Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Remember that they have Readiness, which prevents battle destruction, as well as prevents damage from being taken. Anyway, the Rank-Up they have works whenever something is destroyed by battle, maybe they get a Rank 6 in the future so they can keep Ranking Up. I dunno, sounds silly, but could be the idea of how they're suppose to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 maybe they get a Rank 6 in the future so they can keep Ranking Up. They do have a Rank 6, it appeared in this episode as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~British Soul~ Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Oh, well I guess that I was sort of right, lol. Yeah. Although to be fair I wouldn't have known that unless I had checked le wikia first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iCherries Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 If it didn't have such a low atk stat, it'd be pretty okay. It'd be nice if Raid Raptors had a Quick Chaos clone or something for a couple of neat combos with Revolution Falcon or something.Or maybe if it was able to detach on the opponent's turn.

iCherries Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Who knows? They might buff Raptor's Force into a Quick Chaos clone.I sort of like it as a failsafe option if one of them dies but it'd be neat if it had both effects plastered onto it.At least that way you could direct with Blaze, pop something, drop Revolution, pop something else and have an extra material left over for Revolution Falcon. The low power would be a bit more justified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 I guess as compensation, Force Strix will be a 2 Mat Rank 4, rather than Rise Falcon's 3 Mats, so Ranking Up will be easier, but right now, the whole archetype is underperforming.

Timeline15 Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 I think this card is good I guess, but why do the raid raptor aces have such low stats, even when rise falcon is the only one who can gain attack? Still, this is usable. Get off some damage on the opponent and then nuke their field. Just means that you're then left with a 1000 atk monster to try and protect. Hopefully the raptors get an ace with permanent decent stats at some point, cos atm, once any of the falcons have used their effect, they're sitting ducks (haha).

iCherries Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 The low stats likely represent how weak and unprepared Shun and co where before the fire nation random guys attacked. In addition to how desperate they got to drive them out of their home.Though, from a different design viewpoint, it could be because they already destroy all adversity before them. Rise Falcon has low power, but gets a good burst of energy to clear out a field. Blaze Falcon can already do a sweep and gets a bonus for being an intruder and directly attacking.I don't think 1500 at the least would've killed this though. I really think they need more than Readiness.also offtopicthe duck jokeyou understand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rise Falcon isn't a sitting duck. its boost is permanent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is true; Blaze Falcon's direct attack makes it less likely to get such a benefit though. Revolution could go any number of ways, since we don't know everything about it.

Timeline15 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Wait, rice falcon's boost is permanent?! So if your opponent keeps special summoning it can just boost itself higher and higher every turn? Wow. Is it temporary in its anime effect btw?, cos I swear I've seen its atk return to 100 at the end of shun's turn, and that's my only experience of flacon atm, having not used the actual card.

Animu effectu for u: This card can only attack Special Summoned monsters, also it can attack all Special Summoned monsters your opponent controls once each. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; this card gains ATK equal to the combined ATK of all Special Summoned monsters your opponent currently controls until the end of this turn.
