Rank 5 EARTH

3 Level 5 EARTH Machine-Type Monsters

You can also Xyz Summon this card by using a Rank 4 Machine-Type monster you control as the Xyz Material. (Xyz Materials attached to that monster also become Xyz Materials on this card.) During your Battle-Phase, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; target 1 monster you control that has already attacked this turn except this card: increase the targeted monsters ATK by 500 and it can attack once more during the battle-Phase. If the monster targeted by this effect attacks directly: halve all battle damage dealt by that card this turn. When this card leaves the field: Special Summon 1 Level 5 or lower Machine-Type monster from your graveyard to your side of the field.

Grammar fix :)

 

I like it. It's a Fire Mufflerlion-like card that can be SSed off of Gear Gigant X, making it a nice tech in a lot of Machine-Type Decks. The multi-attack effect is fine, IMO, and could be lots of fun, but the second effect I'm unsure about. Any Level 5 or lower machine could be powerful.

 

AFTER looking at the Level 5 machine list, I don't think there's much to worry about, at all.

Good job with this one.

3 Level 5 EARTH Machine-Type Monsters
You can also Xyz Summon this card by using a Rank 4 Machine-Type monster you control as the Xyz Material. (Xyz Materials attached to that monster also become Xyz Materials on this card.) During your Battle Phase: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 monster you control that has already attacked this turn, except this card; it gains 500 ATK, also it can make a second attack in a row. If the targeted monster attacks directly, any battle damage it inflicts to your opponent is halved. When this card leaves the field: Special Summon 1 Level 5 or lower Machine-Type monster (from your Graveyard).

 

Given the general lack of viable EARTH Machines that can even Rank 5 (only ones are those construction vehicles), you're mostly going to Rank-Up into this. Last time I checked, you have 6 targets to play with; let's see:

• Constellar Praesepe: Has no use except in Constellars and they have very few Machines to even use this otherwise.
• Gear Gigant X: OK, this one has some degree of usage.
• Super Quantum Beast Aeroboros: Guess you can Rank-Up after it burns out its mats and stuff.
• Tin Archduke: Not worth it.
• Number 36: This one, I can probably see you using to Rank-Up into this, then get more fodder to Rank 4/5 or something (if they even want this card, which I assume they sort of don't)
• Zenmaister: IDK about this one, but probably.

As it stands right now, it basically lets your stuff attack multiple times with power ups (which helps them to clear fields and all). Only question is what Decks are willing to devote space for this card, given the conditions; though there are a few options you can try (not exactly metagame, but they can play around with this). I don't know if the above user read the Level 5 and LOWER bit, but with the new support that came out, you should be careful about it being able to trigger stuff. (The 5s are of no issue since majority of them suck, but anything else is fair game). At least you can get it off if the opponent decides to Castel you or something along those lines as opposed to having it be blown up to do anything.

 

I don't think there are any Level 4 and under that can necessarily abuse this card's "float" effect. IDK, maybe Superheavies if they find room to use Gear Gigant (they probably can, but I haven't tried that) and Rank-Up from there (they don't care about the ATK boost much, but the additional strikes will help).

 

But one more thing, did you intend for the targeted monster to be able to be targeted multiple times via its effect or just once (and give it a second attack for that turn)? The fix I gave you is based on BLS's one and only permits another attack if it got one in earlier.
