「tea.leaf」 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 I really don't understand how he's good. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parting Shot Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 For those of us who can't read Japanese, here's the card effect: When this card is Normal or Special Summoned, you can destroy up to 2 cards on the field. For each card destroyed, that card's controller draws 1 card. This card cannot attack during the turn it is Normal or Special Summoned. I think it has too much of a drawback compared to the rest of the monarchs. I wouldn't run it unless I had nothing better to put in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekken Ham Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Neither can I it's in Japanese. http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Kuraz_the_Light_Monarch there much better. Ok, on to seriousness. Kuraz is now the draw engine for Monarchs because he gets his effect when special summoned. It's like, DDR, Kuraz, draw two. It's a 2-1. 2 cards, 1 discard from hand. He's even better with Premmy. He funking pwns. I am so getting 3 of him when he hits the USA. Great synergy with Scouts and Survivors in Macro, along with Treeborn and Discy in PC. He has great removal for noobs. And great drawing power for people who have L2play'd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
「tea.leaf」 Posted May 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 And he doesn't get to attack or anything... Right. Although in Macro he's much more legit, almost like a Cyber Valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekken Ham Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Why does he need to attack? He's a draw engine for Monarchs, that means blowing your own cards up. Usually Kuraz himself gets blown up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading the whole thread still hasn't answered this small question I've had for ages.In a Macro deck, where you practically have an unlimited supply of fodder, you'd have enough to spend for this guy. If you Tribute Summon him with a Survivor/Scout Plane, and then you destroy him along with another Survivor/Scout Plane, you draw 2 cards. That's a +2, +1 if you count destroying Kuraz as a loss. Kuraz's effect that inhibits himself from attacking upon summon pretty much makes him a perfect target for his own effect. The fact that Kuraz's effect can also be used when Special Summoned is another plus. Along with Cyber Valley (if played, which isn't a bad idea), Kuraz will be the other main target for D.D.R., because you can bring him back and reuse his destroy effect to draw 2 more cards. Not to mention if you really get desperate, you can hit two cards on your opponent's side. That's how I understand this card currently. Am I wrong anywhere?

JesusofChaos™ Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 This card+ premature burial/ DDR is a 2 card pot of greed, when it is spec summoned by these cards u just target itself and the DDR/ Premature Burial and you get to draw 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
「tea.leaf」 Posted May 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 How can you target D.D.R./Premature Burial and Kuraz at the same time when one would by destroyed if the other was removed from the field? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JesusofChaos™ Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 How can you target D.D.R./Premature Burial and Kuraz at the same time when one would by destroyed if the other was removed from the field? When Kuraz is summoned by these cards his effect is triggered. You target the 2 cards. These are then destroyed by Kurazs effect must resolve before premature/ddrs effect of destroying it can activate. So you draw 2 then it is destroyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
