Queen of the Abyss Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 So I decided to run a Burning Abyss variant for the most recent DN tournament that ended hours ago with this card in mind. This card is plain silly, and can do a lot. Literally flip all the floodgates and return them to the hand next turn so you can do whatever you like. Mistake, Vanity, hell, I can run Macro Cosmos and next turn and bounce them all back the next turn. It's way too amusing to not take advantage of and your opponent can never expect the coming of this card. It dominates the mirror match and as an out to Towers and a 4k beater AND defender even under Skill Drain/L1T, it dominates over Qli. Did I mention it triggers BA effects? As much as last time I knew Necrofear was not as solid of a BA tech, I think this might actually (Surprised to even be saying this) have some legitimacy tied to it. Let us discuss Dae's favorite card and its applications in the Burning Abyss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerer Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 You can also Call back your BAs while this card is on the ... Nvm, don't listen to this scrub. I forgot that Call would leave the field when the BA monster selfdestructs. So no continuous resources... It might've been pretty cool though.

It might've been pretty cool though.Technically you can use it to trigger BA effects, which is kinda hilarious, but yeah, it destroys. If it was send to Grave though :O Still, the abuse with floodgates is enough to warrant the effect to be good and the protection is dumb. It doesn't seem applicable, but randomly it can be, (The UA matchup on rare occasions) and it makes the card all the more amusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, you CAN abuse something like Call of the Haunted if your revived BA monsters are used as Xyz Materials. Then you'd just have them floating around.Haven't really used BAs in way too long so I'm not sure how tight their S/T lineup is, but it sounds like they could also use Oasis of Dragon Souls if it needed consistency and you really were into that combo. At least on paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least on paper.Space is INCREDIBLY tight outside of the floodgate and BA lineup, where 1 or 2 chances can be made like 2 Levic for Aero Shark combos made easier or a 3rd Mistake if the meta calls for it. CotH is limited by the fact of BAs self destruction, otherwise it would be a deadly tech in a build with Neo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neosphere would pretty much be a stand-alone because BAs would self destruct when having it there...That's a shame... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neosphere would pretty much be a stand-alone because BAs would self destruct when having it there...That's a shame...Tour Guide helps though cause you can make Dantes and Downerds and because of Levic, you can do another shenanigans. I also tech 2 Necrofear for the Aero Shark OTKs and because it works as additional damage. Did I mention how deadly both are in the mirror? Sometimes though in general Neo, a BA or 2 in hand, and a couple of backrow is more than enough, because it really is just that good. It's a rather large monster your opponent CANNOT prepare for, similar to Honest. The fact that you usually +1 or 2 off of it too is rather amusing, usually following into damage that puts your opponent closer and closer to Barbar range.

King K. Azo Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Oh this card.My friend back in the day trolled an Obelisk deck with this card. Yeah, the applications of this card in fiend decks is absolutely insane. Although granted, my friends literally sit around and break cards in insane, impractical combos everyday.

玄魔の王 Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 This used to be great in Dark Gaia OTK before Anti-Hope took her spot. BA do seem able enouh of summoning her though... I just kinda wish we'd got more of this deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the applications of this card in fiend decks is absolutely insane. Although granted, my friends literally sit around and break cards in insane, impractical combos everyday. I have the same friend, here's the sequence of events. Known local stacker has Obelisk the Tormentor on board. Draw, Normal Summon Darklon in attack position, two cards in hand "Why is that in Attack?" "Because it's a trap I want it to be." Obelisk attacks Darklon, Darklon sent to grave, Summoned Skull from the hand to Grave, Suddenly Neosphere "Can you do that during my turn?" "That's the ONLY time I can do it!" Stacker M2s and looks for Raigeki with Gold Sarcophagus Neosphere does its job and kills Obelisk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 I always WANTED this card to be useful, but could never figure out a way to do it, because of how much of an investment the Summon was, and how dedicated the Deck had to be to pure Fiends.

SirReal Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 And proceed to do what? it's still a 4k overall. It needs to be removed if they want to start doing damage. Not to mention, dekatron can still be normal summoned or SS'd off of Reasoning or Monster Gate and this thing can still be used as tribute for Monster gate. Dekatron can also copy Patrulea to pop the Fiendish and Lyla is commonly played as well, not to mention Galaxy Cyclone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VampireofDarkness Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 The problem with Neo in Infernoids is you have to run a legit amount of floodgates to make the best of it. Infernoids don't like to do that because they either are affected or it conflicts with the fact that they mostly will be milled. I suppose a dedicated build could happen, but it's a stretch. This card I. BA though is a different story. I have seen it in action enough to call it legit. BA let you use legit backrow, you don't mill outside of Dante, and there is a lot of room for it to be live. It's also a Towers out your opponent will never expect, and is for the most part unaffected by their floodgates like Lose 1 Turn and Skill Drain is in its favor. I would actually consider it tbh, even if only for the Towers out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Progenitor Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Just run that Rhyno Korean Exclusive thing so your BA monsters can't kill themselves. Now you can run CotH and abuse it like Gol'Gar always wanted. Yay inconsistent solutions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TF2_The_Scout Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Never would of thought of this. That's a great idea. Run this in BA and stomp out Apoqliphort Towers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
