Victoria: Re-Discussion


Recommended Posts

[justify]Once per turn, you can Special Summon 1 Dragon-Type monster from your opponent's Graveyard to your side of the field. Your opponent cannot select another Fairy-Type monster you control as an attack target. [/justify]

 

[align=center]I know we have discussed this card in the past, around 4 months ago to be exact. But i believe it needs re-discussion. With the release of Synchro Monsters such as Black Rose and Stardust, i believe this card could be awesome side material

Since the lattest fairy deck is Counter Fairies i think they won't need it. If you take Stardust and you activate its effect, it will return onto the opponent's field, he will thank you for it. But Black Rose Dragon and Red Archfiend Dragon are good targets for it i think. The artwork looks like a fusion of three Felgrand Dragons and a random fairy monster, don't you think so?

You can't really use it until the opponent has Synchro Summoned a monster and you've managed to send said monster to the graveyard, so it's not much use early game. And then the Synchro Summoned monster needs to be Dragon-Type, which means you're out of luck if the opponent goes for Goyou first. And the easiest Dragon-Type Synchro monster to put in the opponent's graveyard is Stardust Dragon, since the opponent is likely to send it there himself, but even then it's not as good as having a Stardust of your own, since actually using its effect will return it to your opponent.

 

Let's also not forget that a lot of monster removal nowadays is specifically designed *not* to destroy the opponent's monsters and send them to the graveyard, since Stardust keeps getting in the way. Looking back over the latest SJC, what removal cards were used? Destiny Hero - Doom Lord. Compulsory Evacuation Device. Phoenix Wing Wind Blast. Caius the Shadow Monarch. Raiza the Storm Monarch. Bottomless Trap Hole. Ehren, Lightsworn Monk. There are still plenty that will put your opponent's monsters in the graveyard, but there are also plenty that will do no such thing.

 

Black Rose Dragon would certainly be easy, since it instantly sends itself to the graveyard, but how are your opponents going to summon him? Level 7 isn't an easy number to reach when Synchro Summoning. And even if you do steal Black Rose Dragon, it's still nothing more than a 2400 ATK beatstick if you don't run Plants - and if you run Plants, you don't run Honest, so this card loses one of its benefits. A free 2400 ATK beatstick certainly isn't anything to sneeze at, but when the cards needed to snag it are this situational...

 

It's not absolutely terrible, but it's not as great as it sounds.

The minite I saw this card I thought it was great yes it can be situational, but think about it you kill stardust on your turn and steal it then protect it till your turn use its effect on your turn and steal it again. people who search for goyo first are foolish I have bottomless him some many times it is not even funny

1: Punctuation. Learn2doit.

2: Most monster removal effect activate during your opponent's turn. Lightning Vortex, DAD, Gyzarus, JD. All you have to worry about during your turn is Mirror Force and Torrential.

3: There's a clear difference between the number 6 and 8. Even my 4 year old cousin knows that, and he's 4. People who search for Goyo first typically do it because that's all they can get at the time.
