CLG Klavier Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Dragonox (left)Pendulum Effect: When an opponent's monster declares an attack: You can destroy this card, then end the Battle Phase.Monster Effect: Once per turn: You can discard 1 card, then target 1 Warrior or Spellcaster-Type monster with 2000 or less ATK in your Graveyard; Special Summon it in face-down Defense Position.Dragodeus (right)Pendulum Effect: At the start of the Damage Step, if a monster you control battles a face-up monster your opponent controls: You can discard 1 card; halve the ATK and DEF of that opponent's monster. (This ATK and DEF loss remains even if this card leaves the field.)Monster Effect: When this card in your Monster Zone is destroyed by your opponent's attack or card effect: You can activate this effect; during this turn's End Phase, add 1 Warrior or Spellcaster-Type monster with 2000 or less ATK from your Deck to your hand, except "Dragodeus, the Empowered Warrior".

Delibirb Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Dragonox is a good battle phase ender, making them waste an mst to defuse. Dragodeus is just an awesome searcher for a wide variety of cards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirReal Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Both are good in different ways. -nox is basically a Valk at the cost of killing your scale. -deus has a massive search pool although its effect is reliant on your opponent. The other effects are not the best ways to play them (also both of those effects require a discard...) -nox as a monster can retrieve -deus or another pendulum spellcaster/warrior after having detached from an xyz summon in order to put them back in the extra (when they get destroyed). It can be cheeky with final attack orders but you're getting really gimmicky at that point. Deus can cut monster's attacks in half at the cost of a discard. Not bad, it does allow you to run over some things and make your monsters tougher to run over but it's pretty detrimental on your resources and as such not recommended.

Toffee. Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Both of these, honestly, are just really damn fun cards in general.And I like the idea of Konami expirementing with Deus, in the sense that generic searchers typically cap out at 1500(Ie, Sengan/etc), but This one being a Pendulum means you cant abuse it with stuff like Call/etc, but in exchange it has a 2000 ATK search range, which gives it so many more targets.

Neutrality Man Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 If you add their Field Spell "Empowering Armory" into the mix, the discards are suddenly fooder generation. Not to mention that Dragodeus's ATK halving is almost ALWAYS worth it. All Dragon, Warrior, and Spellcaster-Type monsters you control gain 300 ATK. Once per turn: You can discard 1 card; Special Summon 1 "Empowered Warrior" monster from your Deck. Once per turn: You can banish a total of 4 Warrior-Type and/or Spellcaster-Type monsters from your Graveyard; add 1 "Aether" monster from your Deck to your hand. The discard costs add to the Grave and enable searching out Aether the Wicked Empowering Dragon faster. And I remind you that Wicked Aether is a Pendulum version of Caius the Shadow Monarch. Pendulum Effect: Once per turn: You can banish 1 "Empowered Warrior" monster from your Graveyard, then target 1 card on the field; destroy it. Monster Effect: When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can target 1 monster on the field; banish it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas★Zero Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 All we need with these now is a Chaos Pendulum Monster since we got our Light and Dark Pendulum Pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 It would be better if their effects were swapped.A LIGHT warrior that can recover spellcasters is, at least in theory, cute in Shaddoll.On the other hand, Construct is dead in OCG land, so w/e.

Card sees use in clown blade cause of the field spell. I'm still sticking with saying the deck is better in TCG due to a dark who can recycle MoF with ease. That dark dragon is a godsend of a LPD target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh. Gem Blade is the best version in my opinion due to both the Future Fusion nature of the deck and the senergy between the cards. Aethers, I have a suspicion, might be the lead up to some manner of chaos support that was promised in DOCS. Or it's another of many signs that point to Faith being unchained OCG side. Still stand by my view that they will create far more of an impact TCG side than they ever could in OCG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 I think Seraph Clownblade's the best, though Gem-Clownblade definitely has the most OTK potential. Granted, OCG doesn't have full Seraph Clownblade, and it's only a prospective TCG build. Hopefully it gets hit pre-emptively come July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the half assed broken seraph engine+clowns topped as you know soo a full version would be deadly as hell. Shaddolls arnt doing much in TCG so Searphs may dodge the bullet. In that case enjoy Noden+Star Seraphs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said card is @3 and allows you access into Barkion and Beast which tend to be pretty good cards. The fusion in question too has quite a few uses. Diverging a little, I think the "Best" use for Gem Knights would be Gem Knight Heroes to make new age Alive heros really Nope, there is no Gem Knight+Dark card so that dream is dead. RIP Hero Knights What's pretty nice is that Clown are largely List independent. Since you don't really need or even use the staple. And ROTA is at fucking three in TCG (jelly). Deck might be on fairly equal power level to OCG when it hits in 2 months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asterr259 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 I use Deus and Wicked Aether in my latest Pendulum build, and I gotta say It helps out a lot. Nox is okay but I just don't use him much in the way I play. His Pen. effect is okay as a EP ender, and his mon. effect is so-so. I don't like having to discard.
