GarlandChaos Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7Q4EVpIFIk I'm pretty sure EVERYONE remembers how terrifying it was to face this thing. Basically, imagine Eradicator Epidemic Virus, except without having to tribute, and with a formidable monster attached to it. Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dramatic Crossroad Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Especially potent against any non-cookie cutter decks... i can't recall if this was limited first of banished off the bat. Yet again it's still UNLIMITED in the OCG,.. :O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zauls Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 I lost to this at YCS Bochum twice in one match. After that the entire tournament went downhill. The guy was nice about it though and said I played much better than him and I deserved to win, so there was that. Still, it should never come back. I'm waiting for TEW to come here and say "oh it's not doing sheet in OCG to 3 please" but no. It is ridiculously easy to pull off now with Seraphs. Stick + Chair is like Magician + Shark except it gets you a sheet ton of draws and a free pop, so Shock is even easier to make than ever. Not to mention Tellars.

Stick + Chair is like Magician + Shark except it gets you a s*** ton of draws and a free pop, so Shock is even easier to make than ever. Not to mention Tellars.Actually even TEW said it's SOLELY because of the Trap lineup there that the Shock is unlocked. But yeah, at this point it just needs to stay far away, especially so long as the Seraphs remain at 3 (Despite my resents towards the fact that they should even be at such) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Hey guys, remember when 3 Material Rank 4 Xyzs were "hard" to Summon? And we had This around in 3s?Good times... 'Course, the card is far too idiotic to ever come back off the list, if only because the game is now at the point of where we can drop monsters like that out of nowhere.

Seraphs, Heroes, and Clowns tend to be the main things to make this. But really, if 2 Mats were fairly easy, it was a matter of time before 3 Mats were not a huge hassle to make Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 I honestly have no clue what you mean by this. Care to elaborate?He means that if a Deck isn't purely 1-off cards and/or 40-card-Staples.dek, then Shock doesn't really do anything against it because you can't accuratly read the opponent's Deck. Tbf, it only recently got legit easy-We've actually had a bunch of stuff that can easily make 3 Material Rank 4s. I mean, we have Kagetokage, Tinplate, etc. Just, that stuff has always been underrated if only because of speed issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention Tellars.It's not doing anything because there's like literally no reason to go into it over Infinity. And anyway, it could PROBABLY be reasonable after all the broken rank 4 engines leave, but they wont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello my name is Enguin Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 As a Superheavy Samurai player, this card is bad juju. >Call monsters.>You have no moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 >Call monsters. >You have no moves.That's basically WHY This card is absurd. I mean, if a Deck is dependant on [card type X] and you Call it, you can basically shut down the opponent for 1 whole turn; This is a huge advantage you just obtained.

~Faytl~ Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 >Call monsters.>You have no moves.Yeah, thanks for repeating what I just said, couldn't do it without ya... Rlly the only top deck this doesn't screw is Qli (unless you get it out turn 1 which isn't hard), since you can either stop their search or you can stop their tribute effects, and BOTH still slow them down. Remember Gadgets with this? Raidraptors would be even worse, and don't even bring up Satellars and this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or name spells and laugh because you are playing traditional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCR_CAT Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 the artwork on this thing freaks me out; I don't know if it's well designed or just really bad. Who thought of this?! Who spent the time to draw this?!?!"Yeah okay so it's going to be kinda like a robot; some sort of tomb-stone thingy in the back as its base and then its body has two big prongs for electricity or something.""Okay, so is this a machine-type?""No, it's actually a fairy but roll with that machine-flavor; I think we got something there."..."Okay yeah, that looks good, but maybe give it something like pinstripes. Something like a magenta and pale rose; sort of like a circus theme but not really, y'know?""...What?""Yeah, then give it sort of like clam-shell armor plates on the back, and its neck is like a metal plate with a hinge going onto something that looks like a bug""Sir... is that...""Oh, and then you see its chin?""Sir, are you""Yeah, make its chin like a tiny face too""Sir is that cocaine?!"

(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 stuff Were you around for the wendigo thread? I did something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
- Minimania - Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 So many decks can make this. It isn't even funny. Satellar Star Seraph Omni/Gemini HERO Sometimes Nekroz Tin Gadgets Hunder/Watt Bujin Raidraptor/Blackwing Maybe Deskbot Igknight Infernity Normal Pendulums ClownBlade (so basically Performage and Heroic Challenger) Noble Knight Madolche Magician Harpie Zefra Melodious Daresay I keep going All these decks have some plays that can get out 3 Level 4s no problem.

(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 Having level 4 monsters does not make Shock Master good in said deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 You say that but the majority of decks listed really can make shocky easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 The majority, yes, but Melodius? Let's be a bit more realistic. The way for a card like this to be ok is for the effect to only apply while the card remains on the field, and have it have only 1600 or so ATK. Even then, it is degenerate as f***.
