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

 

First' date=' 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. is it hard to summon synchros? you're kidding right?

 

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. Which there're alot of these days. that's irrelevant, how often do you see people actually doing that? How many people do I see actually using T-Roar/PWWB/Oppression/Solemn/Bottomless Trap Hole? >_> negating synchros? I barely see it.

 

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. please tell me you didn't seriously said that on purpose -_-" I'm talking about the cards you are destroying with this dragon's effect, not about the synchro summoning, for the synchro summoning of this card, just any Level 8 dragon (they are all easy to pull out) and the level 2 dragon tuner from the starter deck. and as of sacred phoenix, that's a "fun" suggestion only

 

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.sorry about the misspelled word, I meant, red eyes darkness metal dragon, (which is a dragon by the way) and future fusion, dragon's mirror, and other stuff say otherwise about your "ridiculous card advantage", negating non-targeting effects is better than nothing. and there are plenty of targeting cards nowadays too (still)

 

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. if your opponent has a single monster its not a OTK, but it gets pretty close and you still have next turn's 3 attacks. also, you are assuming this card has the need of damaging all 8000 inisial life points, play this after cold wave or heavy strom and you will have victory guaranteed. also, if your opponent has a face down, that's what solemn, MST, dust tornado, heavy strorm, cold wave, ect are for. you can even put stardust (a dragon by the way) in the same deck if you want.

 

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. I answered to this part in a previews answer above*

 

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

:)

 

Then I'll disagree with you in italics.

 

and you forgot 1 sign that I won't bother correcting.

I activate Solemn Judgment on your conversation.

 

I control Splendid Venus. You cannot do this. Ha.

 

sleepy: REDMD doesn't protect Trident either, and since Future Fusion won't activate in time, you're left with the option of Dragon's Mirror. But since that forces you to use the cards needed to be in the Graveyard and making that possible loses you hand advantage, it's losing ridiculous card advantage even more than Summoning Trident and enabling it to Triple-attack in the first place. Using Dragon's Mirror for King Dragun also forces you to run Lord of D. and Divine Dragon Ragnarok, which is terrible.

 

Even after all that, King Dragun only stops cards that target, which T-Roar/PWWB/Oppression/Solemn/Bottomless Trap Hole/Most other card effects seen in competitive play don't even do.
