EnkoMaun Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Kidding. It's Baou. Kicks ass in an equip deck. Art kicks more ass. Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypony Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 The effect isn't kick ass at all,you start with a 800 ATK and you have to work your way up but i highly doubt it would survive before you kill something with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manjoume Thunder Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 You need that horrible equip card to summon and it still takes your normal summon. And 800 ATK O.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiff! Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Still, in said deck it's a crush target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysty Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Requires you to run a sucky equip. It's bad. Still' date=' in said deck it's a crush target.[/quote'] So is Sangan. There are many Crush targets. Plus, in an equip deck, the equips will often boost a DARK monster's ATK over 1000, so the equips are kinda counterproductive. Baou's own ability is counterproductive is your goal is for him to be a crush target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnkoMaun Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 u guys are going way too much to the easy way. You could discard ONE card to give a monster a 500 atk boost and the ability to negate the effects of the monsterrs he destroys. That is worth ONE card. Also, it does fit in an equip deck, just steroid-pump it with equip cards, and then watch the magic roll. Even if i'm noobishly wrong, the art kicks ass.

You could discard ONE card to give a monster a 500 atk boost and the ability to negate the effects of the monsters he destroys. That is worth ONE card. Actually it uses 2 cards: itself' date=' and the one card you discard. It takes away 2 cards from your hand, if you include itself. Also, it does fit in an equip deck, just steroid-pump it with equip cards, and then watch the magic roll. Baou technically does fit in an equip deck, but there are 2 major problems:1. Armed Samurai - Ben Kai is much better with equips. Baou is severely outclassed.2. VERY few experts, if any at all, use equips anymore unless the equip is involved in an OTK or doesn't rely on a monster being on the field. Even a Morphtronics deck (Morphtronics have 5 equips in their archetype) uses at most 2 different equips, one of which recovers a Morphtronics monster from the Graveyard. Even if i'm noobishly wrong' date=' the art kicks ass.[/quote'] I agree with the statement about the art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyTown!! Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 The art is pretty awesome, but what deck are you going to use this in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrCodyPwns Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 if i ever make an equip deck at all, or Guardian deck, i running Ceal instead.this card is terribly slow in this format, and a card that depends on an equip card just in order to summon him, doesnt help things at all. i mean i guess you could try to make a pure PTD deck, and try running Baou, but i doubt youll get far tho...but the upset is that it does have awesome art. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrCodyPwns Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 yea, Grarl's good. but you better have PTD to back him up. and any other Guardians you might run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually built and playtested a Guardian deck about a month ago, and it wasn't that bad. They're my favourite archetype because they're so damn cool. Maybe Failnami could make them good by giving them tonnes of support? Oh, and Iron Blacksmith Kotetsu and Tailor of the Fickle say hi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
