Maeriberii Haan Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 During either player’s turn: You can target 1 Pendulum Monster you control and 1 monster your opponent controls; return them to the hand. You can only use this effect of "Majispecter Unicorn" once per turn. Cannot be targeted by, or destroyed by, an opponent's card effects.So I heard this card sucks in Majespecters. Discuss this card and Majespecters in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBeartic Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Funny thing is everyone was thinking this was gonna be broken not so long ago. Wonder what changed people's minds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Black did mention that being outside of the Majespecter scales means that you either have to tech Eccentric Archfiend or Dragonpit/vein Magician to fill the scales to P-Summon it.While yes, it is fun to bounce the opponent's monsters, I have been finding it to a bit cloggy at 3, so right now running at 2. Most of the time, I end up having to Tribute Summon it, which isn't necessarily bad; given that whatever I Tribute for it can be recurred with scales up + repeat the effects. Older build was without Fox; now that we have it, I want to make space for that.It's not bad, but right now, running in triples isn't really working out. -----In general, Majespecters are a fun Deck to play though; given they can use their support cards and just P-Summon themselves again + repeat.To be fair though, it might've been nice if Unicorn were a little stronger; probably at 2200-2300 or something like that. That, or if Pegasus boosted a bit more; otherwise, things are working fine as they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Funny thing is everyone was thinking this was gonna be broken not so long ago. Wonder what changed people's minds?No, it's insane. It's just insane in a deck like Magician, not Mjespecter, and works in a generic engine thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Now watch... In the next set we get a Majespecter with a Scale of 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 I'm a little out of touch with the newest expansion, but this sounds like a good card in general. If the opponent runs anything Extra Deck, you get to make it downright disappear.Also, while you are at it you also recover a future Scale to your hand in case they blow up one of them.Pendulum Summon makes it so that your only price to really pay is that your swarm will not max out your zones. Then again, from what I understand the deck doesn't have high Scales, and vanilla Scale 7s that we currently have don't get the same amount of recycling and searching going for them to really have the needed synergy with the rest of the archetype... Yeah so far sounds like a good fun generic-ish card more than anything else. At least it isn't just pack filler. iirc there's a spell that modifies Scales (to any number from 1 to 10). It would need its own way to search it to really make it consistent enough, but it is probably worth a shot test since Scale modifying sounds like an ok investment if it follows a swarm, unlike the Normal Spells in the past the modified Levels in the starter decks.... EDIT:So I come from looking up the archetype.This card honestly isn't really even needed. The spells and traps seem to do the job just fine, with their only real "issue" being that you want to draw in a way that you end up searching for them instead of drawing into them, but even if you draw into them you are not in bad shape.Also I wonder how many of these S/Ts in a build become "too many".... It still sounds like a good tech though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still sounds like a good tech though.We do have eccentric archfiend and can play a magician engine with pendulum call to make sure it can be pendulum summoned.Unlike the traps this card recycles itself, meaning you can bounce itself, even summon it with scale 2-5 if you just tribute your other majespecters, or rather set them up for next turn, to save it from battles or tribute it for the regular traps, if you need a high end scale to help out, while having dragon's lair magician/eccentric archfiend, not to mention the free immunity against most effects on a 2k body, which can, as mentioned before, be bounced, by its own effect, to protect itself, if need be, to ensure it would not leave the field, let alone be removed from your disposal, guessing from that this card is indeed worth it in majespecters, evn without an archtype scale 7 or higher, ignoring how easy eccentric archfiend and dragon's lair magician (with pendulum call) are to set up, the tribute aspect is also useful as you can then summon the fodder back next turn and you quickly get multiple majespecters ready (especially if you play dragoknight luster pendulum). Most of the time, I end up having to Tribute Summon it, which isn't necessarily bad; given that whatever I Tribute for it can be recurred with scales up + repeat the effects. Older build was without Fox; now that we have it, I want to make space for that.It's not bad, but right now, running in triples isn't really working out.Precisely, not running tripples (especially as you can search the 2 copies with cat / raccoon), does not mean this card is amazing, as, while it is powerful, it can hurt consistency, if you insist on getting too many, in fact enough to make sure your consistency gets hurt by a card you will get ready soon enough anyways.

Blake Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 It's not worth techning more than 1. And weven then, it's really just +1 Scale 2 more than anything. Magician Engine sucks. MajeMagi is worse than either deck on its own merits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Highlander Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Oh by the way let us all not forget that this monster is an out to denko sekka for majespecters, so they would not be stunned for even a single turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maeriberii Haan Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 You mean Fox+Pegasus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Highlander Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 so is fox + pegaaus which is much more likely to occurFox + Pegasus takes one turn (so the opponent can rampage), unicorn can just return denkko after being summoned, so you would, as mentioned before, not be stunned for even one turn.
