Jord200 Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Shame the Pendulums are Scale 1 and 8. That means no Benkei. But it's just fine that way. And this pretty much explains where Dennis got a ton of Performage Pendulums - the Lancers were given archetype-based Pendulum cards. If Gogenzaka has Samurai Pendulums, odds are, Reiji produced Pendulums for everyone. Whether Shun accepted them or not is a different matter entirely, since he doesn't seem to really want to use Pendulums. Ahh, the Synchro has to attack the strongest monster. That explains a lot. That doesn't explain why Dennis's glowed an ominous purple, though. Plus we've seen Serena and Reira duel onscreen once. We know ONE monster of Ninja guy.

Toffee. Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 I was kinda' in a hurry with my last comment, but anyway... The fact the Pendulums are called 'Great General' is because they are the shoguns/military generals from the era the Superheavies are based on. It makes sense that they would be Pendulums, as they are leading all the samurais into battle; Hence why they are Pendulums; They would Summon all the troops/etc to do battle for them. And it's funny, because Samurai would serve under Shoguns, which just adds to the concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil cucumber Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 the synchro is kinda mediocre imo, it deserves a buff.I dont know much about their tuners but if they actually can make level 9s so easily, why would you opt for this instead of trishula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will likely lose that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think it'll get some kind of buff though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King K. Azo Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Please no pendulums in my steadfast dueling. That aside, I've been saying for a long time we need a Level 9 synchro for these guys. Looks like my prayers have been answered and I can now eat up L7 aces with Battleball as well as L8 ones if this gets printed. The effect also kicks a lot of ass.Okay, we disagree on Pendulums... although I wanted a Scale 9. Anyways... Yes, a Level 9 Synchro is amazing. The effect is good... I like it. Then we can boost it further beyond with the Samurai support. That card can get stupidly powerful pretty fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These Pendulums can't summon Big Benkei, but they can summo everything else, and that counts for a lot. Also, Gongezaka will get all his stuff, he always does. And odds are it'll turn out good.

BlackBeartic Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 The only thing that truly irritates me is the fact that the scales can't call out Ben k. I have no idea why they didn't make a 9 scale over the 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only he has a higher Scale (10). Three guesses what that's about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"iisbestsonobodycangetbetterscalesthanme.avi" I do indeed wish he'd give them a higher end scale though (he definitely knows the aces of every lancer and what they do) but that's reiji for you.

Notice nowadays that most things involve special summoning?Look at Jack's Scar Red. It kills SPECIAL SUMMONED monsters. Normal summon Benki. 3500>3000. And it can be made stronger.Granted, we dunno what else Jack has... But you get what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many things in Arc V destroy SSed monsters as you said. I'm also looking at Anime Rise Falcon who's the biggest culprit of this.But yeah I see what you mean now, sometimes normal summoning is just the better option and besides you can pendulum the smaller samurais to tribute into Benki right?
