Gladiator Beast Assault Fort [anime]

[-kyo-]

Activate this card when you take battle damage from an attack involving a "Gladiator Beast" monster. Destroy all cards you control, except "Gladiator Beast" cards. All other face-up "Gladiator Beast" cards in your Spell & Trap Zone become the Continuous Spell Card "Gladiator Beast Fort". (The original effects of those cards are negated.) Then, choose a number of "Gladiator Beast" monsters from your Deck equal to the number of "Gladiator Beast Fort" you control and place 1 of them underneath each "Gladiator Beast Fort". If this card is destroyed: You can destroy as many cards you control as possible, and if you do, activate 1 "Gladiator Beast Big Fort" from your hand, Deck, or Graveyard.

______________________________________________________________________

Continuous Spell Card "Gladiator Beast Fort"
Once per turn: You can shuffle 1 card underneath this card into the Deck; inflict 1000 damage to your opponent. Once per turn, if this card has no cards underneath it: You can place 1 "Gladiator Beast" monster from your Deck underneath this card. Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can target 1 "Gladiator Beast" monster you control, then activate 1 of these effects;
● If the targeted monster battles: It cannot be destroyed by that battle, also you take no battle damage from that battle.
● If the targeted monster is targeted by a card effect: It cannot be destroyed by that effect.

...WHAT?!!?

please discuss

effect update

This alone creates two unused mechanics. If it were ever printed, I can't imagine it being even close to its original text

[Hallohallo]

This is the future of Yu-Gi-Oh: Double lores! When activated, all cards become "Gladiator Beast Fort" aka the second lore.

 

It's like Pendulum Traps, except both effects apply in the same Zone the card was activated.

 

This is an interesting concept and I'd like to see more of these type of cards (in anime).

[Maeriberii Haan]

so uh, why does this even stack GBs underneath it?

[Hallohallo]

For that 1k burn I guess.

[The Highlander]

For that 1k burn I guess.

Nah he is propably asking this, considering you can keep adding back the same monsters you shuffle back, which in turn prevents any real other investment to be made, considering it basicly nullifies its own costs it is rather redundant.

This is...interesting.

more like a Continuous Trap that can "tag out" into its Continuous Spell pair + several pseudo-copies of it (at least i read it that way) which quite hilariously very GB like.

 

for such over the top activation we end up getting these:

1) once per turn 1000-5000 damage (like wow)

2) once per turn battle immunity to tag out

3) once per turn destruction effect immunity

[BlackBeartic]

So is this 2 cards in one essentially?

[Toffee.]

What the ever living funk even is this card...

[Neochu-H]

At least it isn't a Field "Trap" from the manga or a "Spell-Trap"

[~British Soul~]

What the ever living funk even is this card...

ikr

Though you have to admit, being 2 cards in 1 is pretty cool.

[Just Crouton]

 

I wonder when Yugioh's gunna introduce Duelswalkers.

[Atypical-Abbie]

I wonder if this card is implying that there is an actual card that is called Gladiator Beast Fort, because otherwise I don't see why they needed to put the whole line thingy there. Also, hey underneath making a comeback, which reminds me, where is my food Archetype!

[Slinky]

Is the text being that horrendously long, really that necessary?

[Dokutah]

the only thing that held back this card to being realistic is the Stacking Mechanic. that in the way is useless if not a bit contradict with GB's play-style which not that "Grave Happy" since its force you to sort like "mill"  5 cards that prone to sent to Graveyard.

 

unless, they can just throw the OTT-ness out of the window and replace the stacking mechanic with counter placement like already existing Colosseum - Cage of the Gladiator Beasts
