Or the OTK with it and Big Bang Shot. It is often used with Creature Swap. Asura priest will destroy all of the lower attack opponent monsters. Then Creature Swap on main Phase 2 the leaving your opponent with one or two offensive monsters leaving your opponent no choice to choose.

How is that an OTK?

Though I suppose if you slapped two certain godly equip cards on Asura Priest, then it would be...

MegaDitto June 23rd, 2006 2:11 PM

The Big Bang Shot+ Scapegoat OTK. The Creature Swap combo, I didn't refer that to a OTK. D:

Forci Stikane June 24th, 2006 12:01 PM

But that brings tokens to YOUR field, which means that it would require your opponent using Scapegoat, and I find that too situational. I suppose you could use a couple Ojama Trios with Asura Priest, which would make a less-situational OTK...

I like using Wave Motion Cannon with Gravity Bind, Judgement Of Anubis.
Gravity bind gives me time to charge Wave Motion while Anubis protects me from spell cards. I use Solmn Judgement to protect myslef from anything else.

...When did this turn into a combo debate...? We were talking about Asura Priest, the (at the time) card of the week.

......I'd put another card up--and I know which one, too--but I don't have the pic.

MegaDitto July 10th, 2006 5:29 PM

Well lets see.

It was unoticed in the October 04 format. Got sidedeck play in the April 05 format. Got treated like crap for the first 3 months of the October 05 format. Became noticed when Soul Control needed a new monarch due to a previous momarch weakness being released in Elemental Energy in the last 3 months of the October 05 format and is too overrated in the April 06 format and is treated like a staple. And I own 2.

I's Z borg.



Yeah...........that's my look at it.

How does you-gi-oh even work? doesn't seem very fun.

digi-kun August 17th, 2006 5:52 PM

eh...unless you really hate yugioh or just hate card games...
1. I guess it's best described as a pastime
2. It requires some reading of the manual >>
3. By the way you used the word "seem", i'm assuming you've never played
4. Patience is required, it can take a while just to finish one match, as with all other TCGs
um...i would guess the problem would be one of the reasons up there
but, as a magic player, i still find this game quite fun, of course, this probably comes from my constant playing of card games XD

Didn't belong here AT ALL...

...Zaborg, huh? Yeah, I'm late, but as long as I'm here...can be better, can be worse. Of course, I don't really lilke Monarchs anyway since their effects require Normal summoning...

Click whichever country you are from and start reading.

*This needs a new card*


Forci Stikane August 28th, 2006 2:17 PM

A-hahaha, yes, of course this comes now it's unbanned...which still makes no sense to me. I mean, it's an OTK all in its own, for goodness sake, ESPECIALLY now that Ring of Defense is in English...

Frostweaver September 4th, 2006 3:09 AM

Nah no one will bother to try to combo Ring of Def or Barrel Behind the Door with this card anymore, cause mask is down to one and it's too unreliable when you can get the Ring of Destruction back. Those cards are pretty bad cards if the key combo card (RoD) isn't ready.

Funny thing is, everyone is using it to blow stuff up. Everyone got Cyber Dragons. Now, lemme calculate... 2100 each blow, and there's two rings in a match, so that's 4200 gone right there? Oh, aggro/burn/fast stuff ftw this format... just what kind of aggressive deck, and which one. Maybe all this fear of 4200 LP gone right there is yet another reason why Momonga makes a dramatic comeback.

Forci Stikane September 17th, 2006 2:44 PM

(Didn't I post before? Oh well.)

Well, I still use Barrel...side decked while Ring was banned, of course, but still there...mostly to counter Cylinder and various other cards. But now Ring's back, that OTK can take over again (goes particularly well with Cyber Stein).

"The usefulness of 'Forced Back' is directly porportional to people's uncertainty of the metagame as they start throwing monarchs in every direction they see."
~Me

In an era where non-usable resources in the hand is not a resource at all, it maybe best to not allow the enemy to summon anything to begin with, instead of only focusing on monster removal... I think Zaikiro got the point when he failed to push me over the edge when I drew no monsters for 10 turns, and is continously delaying my reaper's death by constantly denying zaborg's tribute summon over, and over again~ ^_^

I think that's part of the idea behind Don Zaloog's popularity...BUT, allowing your opponent to summon a monster that you can immediately destroy is sometimes more useful than getting rid of it in your opponent's hand just so they can bring it back and throw something WORSE at you...

Frostweaver September 23rd, 2006 5:59 PM

Then again, all of the top 8 got a monarch somewhere, namely zaborg... It's amazing how Forced Back can be more than just field -1 (and field -1 is a big thing now), but a -1 as well for sacrificing a monster for nothing. Yes you can say how sometimes might as well bottomless the monster, but then monarch effect goes through the standard traps so it's even out, but forced back can even (temporaily) stop the monarch effect too.

Cimeratech food. Nuff said.

Frostweaver October 4th, 2006 2:23 PM

It's just general machine support, and finally another option for UFO Turtle *cough*that's also machine*cough* to pull out besides Solar Flare Dragon.

However, it still feels like Dekoichi is the preferred choice compare to Cyber Phoenix for some reason. One draws by flipping, the other draws by being destroyed. Both of them don't get to draw against monster destruction. Dark type no longer matters. The only plus for Dekoichi is perhaps the ability to be set yet get the draw off, at the cost of 600 defense though...

1600 def can basically withstand any common 4 star monsters except Breaker with counter and D. D. Assailant. Also, I always thought that the ability to withstand Hydroggedon is rather *very* important for this era.

Cyber Phoenix > Dekoichi

Forci Stikane October 5th, 2006 7:04 AM

...Well, it isn't just a drawing engine, but also works as a powered-up Lord of M. With Chimeratech sitting there with your opponent's Magic Cylinder ready to kill you this thing comes in for the save. Lets see what else it can negate:

Enemy Controller
Brain Control
Ring of Destruction
Book of Moon
Call of the Haunted (destruction part)
Premature Burial (destruction part)

And a whole other bunch of miscellaneous cards. It works rather well, but its 1200 ATK can easily backfire on you.

Frostweaver October 5th, 2006 9:37 PM

Sadly, the chances are that those very chainable spells or traps will target Game Overdragon and destroy/do-something-bad to it very quickly when it is special summoned before you can get Cyber Phoenix on to the field to protect it, unless it's the Magic Cylinder or Sakuretsu, of course...

Still a must have for Game Overdragon deck though. Its searchability by UFO Turtle is a great fuel for machines into the graveyard.

Also backfires like ubber if played against DW.

Still a sweet card, though, and usually brilliant topdeck.

Frostweaver November 24th, 2006 6:52 PM

The fact that it refills and save your butt when you're topdecking earns a place in a sidedeck, in my opinion. However, keep far away from maindeck just because of Dark World, not only because of its rise in usage, but also the next deck got even more powerful Dark World support to fuel the hype.

Ironically enough, all the Dark World support cards besides Dark World Lightning backfires if it's played against another Dark World deck. I always find that amusing...
