AND ITS AMAZZINNGGGGGGG. It's even better than Quasar.

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

Guys it's wind. That's so satisfying.

[~~~~]

yes! It's WIND for them Speedwitch plays!

 

We need to know if it can negate a 2+ pend summon or if it's like Black Horn of Heaven.

 

It's somewhat Quaser+Stardust Warrior+Red Nova. It's a really nice card, but it's had the word KAIJU biroed on its forehead while it was sleeping

[Expelsword]

Of course it's WIND.

It's Stardust...

 

Great card, hype enough.

[Azuriena]

We need to know if it can negate a 2+ pend summon or if it's like Black Horn of Heaven.

 

It can, since it doesn't say "exactly 1" like Black Horn does.

 

Of course it's WIND.

It's Stardust...

 

Quasar is LIGHT in contrast.

 

(Perhaps because this is apparently a Delta Accel Synchro Monster, and all of Stardust's evolutions up to and including Shooting Star were WIND, while Quasar is a Limit Over Accel Synchro Monster that used other Signer Dragons as Synchro Materials.)

[Ryusei the Morning Star]

:O 

 

And all those people said it would never happen

 

So it loses the OTK potential, and the float effect, but gains stardust warrior and swift-iron

 

That's really pretty amazing when you think about it. It's yet another alternative to Sifr and Quasar, but doesn't outclass either

[Kanashimi]

@Galaxy Destroyer Senator Quasar Enguin, new stuff for your spammy Quasar.dek

 

My biggest question:

> Say if i negate opp Summon or S/T using Blazar, then banish itself as a cost, then opp chain Solemn Strike, is Blazar coming back during ep?

 

NOTE: Why i ask this because Strike negates an effect instead of a cost, differ from the Psy-Framelord Omega banish which is part of the effect rather than a cost.

[Just Crouton]

My god it doesn't look butt-ugly atrocious like Quasar!

[Azuriena]

My biggest question:

> Say if i negate opp Summon or S/T using Blazar, then banish itself as a cost, then opp chain Solemn Strike, is Blazar coming back during ep?

 

Pretty sure this is unprecedented so there should be no definitive answer at this time.

Strike negates activations.

 

(The distinction could be significant in this case, but who knows.)

[~Faytl~]

My god it doesn't look butt-ugly atrocious like Quasar!

 

That is true; Quasar looks ugly as hell, but this is PRETTY. And powerful, as well as hard to get rid of. You need SS2 removal to get rid of this thing, though the existance of Strike means this won't be too much of an oppressive force, hopefully.

[Kanashimi]

Pretty sure this is unprecedented so there should be no definitive answer at this time.

Okay, because if, i say "if", he still back during ep, that'd be super nice, means as long as you successfully summon Blazar, Solemn/Counter Trap cant fully kill him, just negating the activation of his effect and keep coming back during ep, almost-invincible here (but things exist, like UTL, or Imperial Iron Wall, even Kaiju).

 

 

Strike negates activations.

Ah my bad :x

[Azuriena]

Ah my bad :x

 

You monster. c:

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

Returning to the field is a stipulation on the cost, so it should come back anyway, unless Konami says it won't.

 

Either that or the rules don't make sense. Who knows.

[Azuriena]

Returning to the field is a stipulation on the cost, so it should come back anyway, unless Konami says it won't.

 

Either that or the rules don't make sense. Who knows.

 

When the card gets released in the TCG, the way it works will likely be correctly reflected in its PSCT (as has been done for various TCG cards that also have an OCG printing). (After all, the way its cost is written right now in this Japanese rendition likely wouldn't pass on a card with PSCT. Not that any of this is certain.) 

 

On the other hand, card text has never been reliable in the OCG. So players know better to refer to the card database instead, and since this issue is unprecedented as far as I know, the ruling given can only make sense.

 

Rulings often don't make sense in conjunction with OCG card text. But ideally they make sense within the context of other rulings. It's not like the TCG where the ideal is that the card text is sufficient (which is where PSCT comes in).

[The Highlander]

Another reason to say **** kaijus.

But in all honesty this card sounds fun on paper (though for the very existence of kaijus I would have liked this card to be able to banish itself right awayand decide what you want of the effects later down the line).

It actually is not all that difficult to bait (easier than unicorn) considering raigeki, a normal summoned eccentric archfiend etc can bait it.

This card does sounds solid, too bad we do not have a real Delta Accel Synchro archtype (perhaps we might eventually get one, perhaps even a pendulum one) (considering it is not like this card is terribly terrifying).

[Partangle the Candle Jangler]

It's beautiful. Not on par with Quasar but nicer than Sifr. It being Wind doesn't matter because how the fuck are you going to summon this under Speedroid/WW xenophobia; there are no Wind synchro tuners and you'll need an absolutr god hand to be able make Formula/Tatsunoko and still have plays to ladder into this, which only becomes harder with both archetype's aversion to Librarian.

 

That being said it's top tier 5/7 would summon this over Sifr.

[Timeline15]

o_o it happened. it actually happened. What year is it?!

Either way, nice effect, and considerably nicer looking that Quasar to boot.

[The Nyx Avatar]

It looks like they took the Attribute of Stardust Dragon, the ATK/DEF, Level, and Summoming requirements of Shooting Quasar Dragon, put them together, and altered it's effect to get this. It's effect is even a little reminiscent of Stardust Dragon; banishing itself to negate kind of like Stardust Tributing itself to negate.

 

It's beautiful. And arguably better than Shooting Quasar Dragon

yes! It's WIND for them Speedwitch plays!

 

Alright. But how? You could bring out two cards like Puzzle Piece or Hasturr, but what Tuner Synchro monster would you use? Phonon Pulse Dragon?

[Ryusei the Morning Star]

The effect negation of Quasar

The summon negation of Halberd Cannon

The attack negation of Red Nova

 

They threw the three most Iconic monsters of 5D's into a blender, and the results are pretty damn amazing.

 

I just wish level eater was still legal cause summoning this, Sifr, and Quasar in one turn is a dream

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blazar

 

"A blazar is a very compact quasar (quasi-stellar radio source) associated with a presumed supermassive black hole at the center of an active, giant elliptical galaxy. Blazars are among the most energetic phenomena in the universe and are an important topic in extragalactic astronomy"

 

Seems about right

Limitover Drive is pretty cool with this card as it doesn't need to SS from the banished zone. Making it with say a coral dragon and another lv 6 synchro is pretty doable 

[King K. Azo]

With this, we now have a Holy Trinity of funk YOU I'M A DRAGON to summon. Those decks that turbo three Quasars are going to have a field day.

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

I cba to work out a full thing right now, but the trick is to play borg after you land denlong/coral/idk formula synchron I guess.

[Partangle the Candle Jangler]

But at that point you'll have used your NS one way or the other and need to field at least 2/3 more monsters. I don't see a way to summon this under the xenophobia in the one turn without a god hand.

[Slinky]

Wiki says it only returns if it wasn't negated akin to Stardust Warrior, which I find to be bullshit, because that line isn't in the text at all.

 

Either way, card is probably better to be summoned by Limit Overdrive, with no downside to speak of outside of having to draw Limit Overdrive.

[Expelsword]

I don't know what people expected. When you negate monsters, they generally die.
