God of Cadillacs Posted September 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 I admit. I have used Spirit Reaper once in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sartorius Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 I disagree with most of you. Marshmellon is alright, but Spirit Reaper comes with hand control and your opponent still must perform a 1 for 1 or even waste advantage to get rid of it. I want a Marshmellon, but I'd use Spirit Reaper over it any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oddish666 Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 use both . they both have there pros and cons. but at the end of the day they are both very good cards and regardless of whether shield crush and 2 nobleman makes these cards in decks less viable and bad this format, overall they are still good cards.

Arcademuffin Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 marshmallon hands down, but that doesnt mean that spirit reaper isn't good, it just means that marshmallons better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Both are great. Marshmallon-Burn damage plusdosn't have the weakness of Spirit Reaper Spirit Reaper-Hand control plus the cost of a target card, (what Sartorius said) I say Marshmallon, but I would use both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dryad Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Marshmallon, because it is actually advantage. A important lesson is this: ~Example~Winged Kuriboh > Kuribohbecause winged kuriboh can save you from damage and become even stronger, while kuriboh can only save you from damage. Marshmallon > Spirit Reaperbecause marshmallon can withstand card effects that target it as well as inflict 1000 damage and not die in battle with no draw back, spirit reaper is good but he dies to targeting effects and can only force your opponent to discard when damage successfully dealt to the LPs. Spirit reaper is only a force to reckon with when he is fused with nightmare horse to make his abilty far better then when unfused. Its all about the card advantage.

iAmNateXero Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Hmm... Strategy wise, id have to say Spirit reapor. I cant have it brain controlled away from me than sacked in my face.

All fusions cost MAJOR advantage, and without MEtamorphisis, are not worth it. Reaper on the nightmare is one of the worst fusions in the game, because play smart to discard 1 card > not play smart, waste 3 cards to guarantee 3 cards, and both could die next turn given your opponent wastes a card on it. MArshmallon is not bad, but usually, killing the cards in your opponents hand > killing the ones on the field, because field cards can be chained, and killing hand cards can kill strategy.

Yogg-Saron Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Marshmallon, is OK not the greatest, but the only real deck(s) I would use it in are Monarchs and Burn. Spirit Reaper on the other hand is good for mostly just Monarchs and other tribute decks. Marshmallon > Spirit Reaper just barely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thegargoylevine Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Spirit Reaper is quite better in a Zombie Deck and a Strike Ninja Deck, but both should be used in a Choas deck if you play Traditional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iAmNateXero Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 I would play traditional just for fun, problem is everybody is stuck thinking that the ONLY format is advanced. Ive seen NOOBS say they started out advanced and never tried traditional. thats sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
