Soul Harvester (10 Nights of Fright 2020 - Card #7)

[Black D'Sceptyr]

Number 7, and it's far from heaven.

DARK/Zombie-Type Synchro Effect Monster/Level 6/2200 ATK/1800 DEF 

Lore: "Plaguespreader Zombie" + 1+ non-Tuner Zombie monsters
To Synchro Summon this card, you can also banish its Synchro Materials from your hand. Neither player can activate the effects of monsters in their hand, except Zombie monsters.

"Soul Hunter" has seen better days, let's be honest - being a non-effect Monster that not even Instant Fusion can help ferry out. However, in its interactions with the Zombie World, the continuing trend of all souls being brought up to new specs sees his ship rise as well.

However, this may not be the only being getting upgraded in the war between the Dark King of the Abyss and the Dark Ruler Ha Des. And the continuation of this story - this war, really - is going to encompass more beings - and come far quicker - than any Dark King of the Abyss can fathom.

And to this card - well, save for the Ghost Girls, the other handtraps get to suck a big loogey. I tried to go for a powerful Plaguespreader Synchro, something that could rock the socks off of the Decks Zombie World runs against. And this being powerful enough to repel a extinction level rock? Powerful.

Until the next card: reviews, revelry, you know the drill.

BD'S, signing off.

If this card can't stop the Ghost Girl hand traps, what's really the point of this card's effect? They're the most commonly used hand traps (Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit excluded). Then again, you could also Normal Summon Plaguespreader Zombie first, then Synchro Summon this, then revive Plaguespreader Zombie, and then finally Synchro Summon a Level 8, like Borreload Savage Dragon or Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon. You could probably get away with preventing non-Zombie effects in the GYs as well as the hand, and it still wouldn't be too overpowered, considering it requires specific Synchro Materials (even from the hand).
