I don't think this'll have much of an impact.

 

First, it's an LV10 Synchro. It's already hard to get Synchros out due to all the ways opponents stop Special Summons nowadays, but LV10 Synchros are fiendishly hard to get out, usually taking 3 cards.

 

Second, once you've sent the usual 3 cards to the Grave to Sync this, it'll prove difficult to find another 2 cards of yours to blast, and if you can, your opponent will have huge card advantage over you and will usually be able to take care of this with ease.

 

Third, if your opponent springs any type of chainable trap, you lose. T-Roar + Destruction next turn = loss, PWWB = loss, Compulsory = loss. Not to mention Solemn, Oppression, Bottomless, etc.

 

Fourth, you can't revive it at any point you'd feel it'd be fun to do so and give your opp a shocking surprise.

Opponents are not likely to stop SS these days, unless they run Oppression or equivalents.

 

I could think of a bunch of cards that doesn't mind being in the Graveyard.

 

Counterability does not imply balance.

 

The 3000 ATK triple-attacker cannot be revived? OH SH*T

 

The only limits on this card is that it needs Dragons.

I could think of a bunch of cards that doesn't mind being in the Graveyard.Dragons? I can only think of Twin-Headed and Wyvern, and even they're much better on the field to use for other sh*t.

 

Counterability does not imply balance. Usually, but think of how counterable this card actually is, and it doesn't seem so OMG AMAZING.

 

The 3000 ATK triple-attacker cannot be revived? OH SH*T It means you have 1 shot with it or it's a -5/6 and you lose, it's srs business.

 

The only limits on this card is that it needs Dragons. What about being an LV 10 Sync?

 

I disagree.

Oh look' date=' a 5 card OTK that isn't Exodia.

[/quote']

 

well, it doesn't have certain card requirements, it really just needs some dragons, and any other 2 cards. thats it. yeah it's a 5 card otk, but only 1/2 of those cards have ANY requirements at all, being a dragon.

 

just think about, for a second, about a deck that uses this and basically has the power to end the game if you have even a small opening, and the only thing you need is to have a certain number of cards, not x, y and z, just dragon, dragon, dragon.

 

I think that makes it much more reasonable.

 

lol, just thought about the fact it destroys 2 cards when you play it, destroy means not a cost, which means chain, so I chain the two cards and get get their effects, and then I get a free extra 3000 ATK attack on top.

 

he is costly to play, but he makes wining almost certain IF he works.

Geartown would work exceptionally well with this card aswell

 

Destroy Geartown with this cards effect and hello AGGD

 

hopeless geartown?

 

that sounds dangerous and cool at the same time

 

gonna need trade-in.

 

You can't use the ancient gear dragon guy because he's a machine. The requirements to Summon him are a Dragon Tuner and a non-Tuner Dragon monster or more.

 

sorry. :(

That's not what he meant.

 

To triple attack with this, you must first destroy 2 cards on the field. Destroy Geartown and Special Summon Ancient Gear Dragon though the effect of Geartown.

 

Voila. A triple attacker and a Machine with build-in protection when it attacks.

I could think of a bunch of cards that doesn't mind being in the Graveyard.Dragons? I can only think of Twin-Headed and Wyvern, and even they're much better on the field to use for other sh*t."white stone of legend" will be pleased and give you a blue eyes for this. and if you want a weird mixture, you can use sacred phoenix too so the first turn breaks your opponent's barrier of monsters and the second blows away the face-down spell/trap cards and win.

 

Counterability does not imply balance. Usually, but think of how counterable this card actually is, and it doesn't seem so OMG AMAZING.think again, is not as easy to counter with "red eyes b. metal dragon" or "king dragun" making it safer to pull out first

 

The 3000 ATK triple-attacker cannot be revived? OH SH*T It means you have 1 shot with it or it's a -5/6 and you lose, it's srs business.

I would say a 3000 ATK monster that attacks 3 times is worth the cost you know?

 

The only limits on this card is that it needs Dragons. What about being an LV 10 Sync? I actually want this card, being a dragon or a level 10 are not disadvantages, dragons are high level monsters (usually). and I'll mix it with a blue eyes deck as soon as it comes out.

 

and about the 2 cards destruction, I think you can mix a battle mania, urgent tuning, and magical hats, to make a fun deck and see what comes of it, specially using cards that activate when destroyed :)

 

 

I disagree.

 

I will have to disagree with polaris by posting a blue writing in this reply

I could think of a bunch of cards that doesn't mind being in the Graveyard.Dragons? I can only think of Twin-Headed and Wyvern, and even they're much better on the field to use for other sh*t. "white stone of legend" will be pleased and give you a blue eyes for this. and if you want a weird mixture, you can use sacred phoenix too so the first turn breaks your opponent's barrier of monsters and the second blows away the face-down spell/trap cards and win.

White Stone of Legend isn't more useful in the Graveyard, it's only useful when sent to the Graveyard, but after that, not so much. If you were referring to WSoL Tuning into Trident, you'll need 9 more Levels in the Synchro Summon, either an LV9 (How many of these do you see used today?) or a combination of monsters equalling 9, which is still horrible, as you'll need a LV5+ monster and another monster, or else you'll need 4 monsters, which is worse than horrible. Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys isn't a Dragon and if Trident can't win on its own, it'll be destroyed/returned to the Extra Deck before you're able to pull of Sacred's effect.

 

Counterability does not imply balance. Usually, but think of how counterable this card actually is, and it doesn't seem so OMG AMAZING.think again, is not as easy to counter with "red eyes b. metal dragon" or "king dragun" making it safer to pull out first

Red-Eyes B. Metal Dragon is a Machine with no way of protecting this. Having King Dragun and Trident on the field at the same time would cost a ridiculous amount of card advantage, and even then, King Dragun only protects against targeting effects, which hardly anything does nowadays.

 

The 3000 ATK triple-attacker cannot be revived? OH SH*T It means you have 1 shot with it or it's a -5/6 and you lose, it's srs business.

I would say a 3000 ATK monster that attacks 3 times is worth the cost you know?

I wouldn't, if your opponent has a single monster out it's not an OTK, if your opponent has a Trap Card or Quickplay Spell, you lose.

 

The only limits on this card is that it needs Dragons. What about being an LV 10 Sync? I actually want this card, being a dragon or a level 10 are not disadvantages, dragons are high level monsters (usually). and I'll mix it with a blue eyes deck as soon as it comes out.

BEING a Dragon isn't the disadvantage. NEEDING them is. Being a Level 10 isn't a disadvantage. Being a Level 10 Synchro is.

 

and about the 2 cards destruction, I think you can mix a battle mania, urgent tuning, and magical hats, to make a fun deck and see what comes of it, specially using cards that activate when destroyed :)
