This card has not yet been released in english. When it does i think this will replace cyber dragon espically in macro-monarchs as you can put d.d.survivor out of play from your hand and special summon this, then summon a monarch. Discuss

well Cydra in order to be good only need 1 card ,excluding itself

but the tricky need 2 to be a little useful.D.D survior and diemenional fuissure,also if this V.S cydra cydra would win becuase you would special summon this,the cydra would be instantly special summoned and it has more ATK so 100 LP damage.This will never replace cydra.

Sigh, The Tricky is a wonderful Creature. It allows for the strongest Self suported Special summon in the game. With the cost of 1 card from your hand, wich will most likely be (when released) Thunder dragons, Treeborn Frog, Volcanic Shell, Oja Magic, and countless other cards. This will definatly be a staple in the TCG when released. As for better than cyber dragon, Lets evoluate.

 

Cyber Dragon Pros:

 

-The FASTEST Special Summon'd Creature in the game.

-2100 ATK for a free monster

-Monarch Trib

-Fantastic Fusions

 

Cons

 

-Can not Be specialsummoned if you control a creature.

-Can not be special summoned if your opponent does not control a creature.

-2100 ATK, Monarch's Punching Bag

-Everybody Plays with it.

-Will be the prime Subject of "Super Fusion" Side decking.

 

The Tricky

 

-Self Sufficient.

-2000 ATK.

-Spellcaster, Lots of Fancy Supports

-Tricky #4 Spell Card (For those who doesn't know, Tricky #4 is a spell card that makes Tokens of The Tricky [Exact Replicas, meaning Exact same stats]

-Combo's well with "Hand to Graveyard" Strategies.

 

Con

 

-Must Discard a card from your hand to special summon (A -1 for those who actually care about hand count.)

-Cyber Dragon's Be-Otch!

-A cost to discard, So NO DARK WORLD Special Summons.

-A WIND monster, (why didn't it stick to the normal spellcaster build? Light and dark?)

 

In the end, My vote is for The Tricky, simply because it does not require the opponent to special summon. Frankly, Id run them both.

MISCAST!

Again!

Careful with your facts!

Gilasaurus is the fastest Special Summonning Creature, the problem is that he is weak.... and let's your opponent Summon things. But SMART people run Macro Cosmos + Gilasaurus...

I dunno what's up with all you people, but c'mon get a life and play something else... I mean CyDra is good and all, oh what cool Snipe Hunter as well, but use damned cards like Gilasaurus, be original... :(

Use cards which are good, but where people don't talk about that much :)

First, In no way, shape, or form did i say cyber dragon was the BEST. I stated fastest. fastest meaning I Special summon, end with it. Not, I special summon, now my opponent can special summon, and done. Fastest. Second, what good is macros cosmos gonna do IF a creature is in the grave prior to activation? So please, dont try and get on my case if YOUR FACTS aren't straight.

It's (Gilasaurus) still faster than Cyber Dragon, though. But The Tricky is still a very useful card.

I think we all know of that card, Yugi used it in the final season as one of his favorite cards. I thought it was already released in the US because it was translated in the gba/ds games. Oh well, in those games they have Val'dalygon too.

 

Well there are many situations in which you don't have a monster and the opponent has, and Cyber Dragon is still stronger so I think that Cyber Dragon is still better.

But in Darkworld decks, The Tricky rules!

 

btw there is also 'Tricky's Magic 4'. If you offer The Tricky you get Tricky tokens equal to the number of monsters on the opponent's field and they have Tricky's stats.

Facts was a badly chosen word, still Gilasaurus

- is better in Special Summoning

- isn't a Tribute

- is EARTH (best Attribute)

- damn easy to get

- good players set Macro on their very first turn, meaning they won't let you spam your Graveyard :)

Or...

 

Yes already said but has anyone thought about how actually overwhelming the tricky is compared to Cydra?

 

Unlike Cydra where it gets at best Limiter Removal for its power increase, Tricky actually has an entire arsenal of magic/trap & monsters to work with, you going to kill my Skilled Dark Magician? THINK AGAIN!!! I activate my spell card Magical Dimension, so bye bye Cydra.. Hello Tricky.

 

If they came out with "Pain Of The Almighty" your Cydra is going to get schooled, why you ask well with 1 copy of PotA out Cydra loses 500 ATK and I still have my Tricky out, wait you got a Breaker out to destroy it and munch my LPs? once again... THINK AGAIN!!! Waboku is my answer as a face down putting the enemy in a lose lose situation.

 

Oh you going to boost Cydra with a Limiter Removal and your attacking my Tricky? twice again... THINK AGAIN!!! Ready for Intercepting

 

Your going to use MST on one of my two face downs and attack with both Breaker & Cydra? thrice again... THINK AGAIN!!! Magic Cylinder/Mirror Force (Depending on which one gets hit and I left with)

 

Must I go into further explanation although some cards I listed can be in either deck, knowing a Spellcaster deck as one of the several decks I run, I will have most likely a answer for MOST situations. Outside a Spellcaster based deck the Tricky can still serve pretty well, I mean a 1st turn 2000 ATK monster is good then having to wait your turn for getting CyDra out.

 

I mean CyDra is strong point wise and both can be used as monarch tribute except for one thing... Tricky breaks Frog, how you can ask well what if thats the card I discarded for Tricky? Three creatures for 1 is better then a 2 for 1.
