XX-Saber Hyunlei

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

 

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner "X-Saber" monsters

When this card is Synchro Summoned, you can select and destroy up to 3 Spell or Trap Cards on the field.

 

I remember this card being awesome when sabers were good, being a powerful option when you didn't have cold wave or heavy storm, or if you just wanted to gain advantage. If she were generic she could be a really cool tool for Shaddolls against Qli, but unfortunately that is not the case.

One of these as a HSR please.

Ridiculously hard to find if you wanna make a 2011 saber deck :[

[Slinky]

I wish more decks had something like this. Hitting up to 3 is a little too much imo though. At least it isn't that large of a monster.

 

Always hated having this played on me back then, still do now.

Be a pro and play any Level 4 X-Saber with your Level 2 Falco Tuner =D

I remember the first time I ever played against X-Sabers and the guy opened Cold Wave + Rescue Cat when I had set exactly 3 backrow on the first turn. Safe to say I lost that game.

Card gave me memories about Darksoul searchspam, cold wave, and rescue cat.

 

It was definitely not good memories.

 

Though honestly,  X-Seiba was cool. the stuffs they pull off are definitely interesting, and Faultroll plays are always amusing.

[Dog King]

the deck even had a hand loop which wasnt too hard to pull off with rescue cat

tho im pretty sure you needed to have cat and faultrol in hand and the lv1 guy on field (one for one could summon it)

even when cat got banned the deck was still playable and fulhelmknight took airbellums place

also im pretty sure x sabers were the only tier 1 archetype deck to have none of its archetype cards get put on the banlist eclver and to go down from tier 1 to rogue

[evilfusion]

Didn't part of that have to do with Darksoul being a TCG exclusive in a time when the TCG and OCG banlists were synched(?), and since Rescue Cat abused other things than Sabers, it got hit?

 

Also, the OCG changed/fixed Darksoul's stupid TCG ruling.

[Dog King]

the deck died because of darksouls ruling

and yes rescue cat was a reason for the deck dieing out but the deck was still played until the darksoul ruling

it was a deck at the time that people wanted hit but it never did get hit and instead the darksoul ruling fixed the problem

[evilfusion]

Which is good, because Darksoul was ridiculously stupid with the original ruling.

[Dog King]

yeah

also from those days whoever makes carda nowadays learned from their mistakes and now almost everything pretty much says you can only use the effect of *insert card name here* once per turn.

tho in a way its also not good because now much more powerful monsters are being made which pretty much set up a board and then re fill your hand for next turn plays pretty much
