Crystal Wing Fast Dragon

WIND / Level 8

Dragon/Synchro/Pendulum/Effect

Pendulum Scale = 9

 

Pendulum Effect:

Once per turn: You can target 1 card in your other Pendulum Zone; its Pendulum Scale becomes 1 until the end of this turn.

 

Monster Effect:

1 WIND Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner WIND Synchro Monsters

Once per turn, during either player's turn, when an opponent's Special Summoned monster activates its effect: You can negate the activation, and if you do, destroy that monster, and if you do that, this card gains ATK equal to half the destroyed monster's original ATK until the end of this turn. If this card battles a Special Summoned monster, during damage calculation: This card gains ATK equal to half the original ATK of the opponent's monster it is battling during that damage calculation only. If this card is destroyed by a card effect: You can place this card in your Pendulum Zone.

This is honestly a pretty great card, and a nice addition to the niche group of Synchro Pendulums out there. I could really see this card being made, not only because it doesn't feel like it's encroaching upon the OG Crystal Wing's territory of general monster negation, but also because we've already seen Special Summons be punished before. (Hell, Shaddolls had a card BANNED because of their hatred of their opponent's Special Summons.)

 

Though, I'd suggest that you add a clause to prevent people from Pendulum Summoning this card from face-up in their Extra Deck. I'm not sure if it's possible, without the in-monster text stating that such can occur, but it's better safe than sorry, in all honesty. Also, nice Pendulum Effect. Simple and to the point, strong too. (If you're not running a Rank 1 deck, of course.)

Bump.

HOLY CRAP I THINK YCM IS BACK IN BUSINESS. As a tribute to those who aren't yet, I'll review this quick. 

 

Fushi's right-another tag against the Special Summoned race and Construct'd be clearing a space for its new friend. But boosting up twice upon Summoning would be some insanity-this would be a WIND-accessible OTK machine if you get it done right. The situational aspect of it though balances it. Feel this is how Crystal Wing SHOULDA been. 

 

Also, Pendulum Effect may as well say "Pend Summon ALL TEH THINGS" (the important stuff, anyway, screw Yosenjus and their all over the place let's pretend we're spirits only more annoying schtick shift.)

 

That its Pendulum setup triggers thanks to a kill spell is okay, because ain't NOTHING getting over this in battle. So there.

 

Oh just have this 8.5/10 and be happy man, because YCM IS BACK BABAE.
