Discuss.

 

[spoiler=Chimeratech Fortress Dragon : Discussion]EarlSkyhawk: I need you all to really discuss one.

EarlSkyhawk: Chimeratech Fortress Dragon

omnimatt: Chimeratech Overdragon = 0, correct?

PlusIntoMinus: Kill.

Turtleman10314: Yes.

EarlSkyhawk: Yes

omnimatt: Sorry, keep getting behind.

EarlSkyhawk: Talk about Fortress Dragon now

PlusIntoMinus: It turns Cyber Dragon, which is already playable on its own, into something that can kill every machine the opponent has.

Sane Orange: Fortress is... an interesting case, really.

PlusIntoMinus: And then there's the obvious combos like DNA Surgery, Creature Swap, and so on.

Turtleman10314: Makes Omega sad?

omnimatt: Kill it, methinks.

PlusIntoMinus: Also, it requires no skill..

EarlSkyhawk: It doesn't make Omega sad

IronChefCHN: im not seeing Fortress's big deal

EarlSkyhawk: Here, read

IronChefCHN: is it just a big beatstick?

EarlSkyhawk: This card cannot be used as a Fusion Material Monster. This card cannot be Special Summoned from the Fusion Deck except by sending the above cards on either side of the field to the Graveyard. (You do not use "Polymerization".)

IronChefCHN: ok

EarlSkyhawk: on either side of the field

IronChefCHN: i understand that

IronChefCHN: oh

PlusIntoMinus: Chef, the problem is "either side of the field".

IronChefCHN: i missed that

IronChefCHN: but that only works for machines

EarlSkyhawk: Since the cards are being sent for a Summon Condition

EarlSkyhawk: Machines become unplayable

PlusIntoMinus: Nobleman.

PlusIntoMinus: It's a Nobleman for Machines instead of Flips.

EarlSkyhawk: Further, it's a Fusion

EarlSkyhawk: It's a STRONGER Nobleman

PlusIntoMinus: And there's no reason not to include it.

EarlSkyhawk: Nobleman has to resolve

EarlSkyhawk: Namely

Sane Orange: The main thing about Fortress is that your opponent can take your CyDra for it, too.

EarlSkyhawk: Fortress is a Staple

EarlSkyhawk: It is a bona fide staple

PlusIntoMinus: Wait, I thought we were talking TCG/

IronChefCHN: yeah no harm in keeping it in your deck

PlusIntoMinus: Fortress isn't confirmed for TCG, is it?

EarlSkyhawk: bow-nuh-fee-day staple

Turtleman10314: Yeah, but we were gonna get to it sooner or later.

EarlSkyhawk: Salty, E4 is planned as a mixed tournament

PlusIntoMinus: Ah.

PlusIntoMinus: Okay.

omnimatt: Again.

omnimatt: Everyone can use it

omnimatt: Machines are laughable if you use it

omnimatt: Dead.

Sane Orange: I really dunno about Fortress. I mean, I can see it getting banned, but the fact that your opponent can use it against you would still make you be conservative aboout it.

Sane Orange: Then again, forcing yourself to be conservative just for the cards you chose to play isn't really a good thing.

EarlSkyhawk: It's a good thing when it requires investment of your own

EarlSkyhawk: This is just a free 3x "Machines are dead".

Sane Orange: I dunno. Is it worth experimenting at 1 or should it just die completely?

PlusIntoMinus: And if sending the monsters to the grave is treated as a cost, so it happens when the chain starts...

PlusIntoMinus: Nothing should ever make your opponent lose cards as a COST.

Sane Orange: Ok, that's the good point I was looking for.

Sane Orange: Alright. Fortress can die.

EarlSkyhawk: It's via cost.

PlusIntoMinus: Plus, he doesn't help the game.

EarlSkyhawk: It's a Summon Condition

EarlSkyhawk: meaning that it doesn't use the Chain

PlusIntoMinus: Oh. That's...even more broken.

omnimatt: I believe we're ready for a final verdict here.

EarlSkyhawk: We've been past final verdict

This is my only true staple, I run it in EVERY deck that has place for it in the Extra Deck.

I just like to Snatch all my opponent's monsters and fuse them when he uses a Machine deck and has CyDra on the field.

 

It also works good in a CyDra deck and it has cool combo's.

 

Good card is good.
