Yankee Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 Tathlum: Instant BRD for Dragunity. Other than that, it wouldn't really do a whole lot. Tenebris is broken. Summon it. Send Phalanx. Normal Summon Dux. Sync into Vajrayana. Grab Phalanx. Sync into 2nd Vajrayana. Grab Phalanx. Make Atum. SS REDMD. SS Vajrayana, make Stardust/Scrap Dragon. Or you could have just made Strike Bounzer. Or for added lulz, instead of the 2nd Vajrayana, make a Gae Dearg. Dump Zephyros. Make the Atum + REDMD. SS Vajrayana/Gae Dearg. Bounce REDMD with Zephyros. Banish Vajrayana/Dearg for REDMD. SS whatever 6 is in your grave. Make Stardust/Scrap. All because of Tenebris. Assail is a Dux Recycler, which is nifty. It probably wouldn't be used too much, but it's a nice idea. You forgot to list the materials. Given that some Dragunity Synchro's are made unplayable by the fact that they can't have the Vajrayana loop make them...sometimes it's good to have synchro materials. It's a nit pick, but yea.

[/quote]Missed that little bit (the materials) You don't like my Tenebris? How horrible of you. Maybe I'll change his effect... maybe I don't. 8'D It does require you to have a little combo piece in there. Basically like having Mystletainn, which, with Dux, would have an end result of Atum, REDMD and a Level 8 Synchro. So, no, it's not broken, not more than the current cards, it basically does the same thing that current decks do while providing options. The only real problem, you could say, is the dumping part. So would you say it requires a different cost? Or is your problem with that Ravine can search it? Alright, here's my edit for Tenebris: remove the dump effect and simply turned him into a Karakuri Komachi for Dragunity. Link to comment

Or, even more likely, a Dragon Ravine on the field. Given how easy that is for Dragunity...yeah. The new effect does fix the COMPLETE brokeness, but again...if you have a Dragon Ravine, it's still the same result. It does, however, require a tiny bit of set up, as opposed to turn one summoning and having Atum REDMD and LV8 synchro for no reason. This way, it might take an extra card... So the current play would be: Dragon Ravine, discard Phalanx, grab Dux if Tenebris is in hand, or Tenebris if Dux is in hand. Or, just set up by discarding, and grabbing either for next turn. Summon Tenebris, summon Dix. Initiate combo.exe Link to comment

Dux -> Phalanx -> Vaj -> Phalanx -> Mystletainn -> Phalanx -> Atum -> REDMD -> Vaj from Grave -> Synch 8 Tenebris -> Dux -> Phalanx -> Vaj -> Phalanx -> Vaj -> Phalanx -> Atum -> REDMD -> Vaj from Grave -> Synch 8 It trades semi-immunity to veiler for searchability.

Yankee Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 It still let's Dragunity explode easily. Instead of investing into a Zephyros, now all you need is to Ravine search for this guy...and just have a Dragunity on you. Link to comment
GurrenRaider25 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Gae Assail is pretty good (only problem I have is the whole not having the proper Dragunity Synchro requirements) Mostly cuz it lets Legionnaire still put in work if your opponent doesn't have a face-up monster you can pop and can still handle back row. The other two are cards I wouldn't personally use in my Dragunity Deck. Tenebris because of Main Deck space issues. Tathlum because Extra Deck spacing only allows me one slot each for Lvl 7 and Rank 3s and I wouldn't run a card simply for access to 1 or 2 Extra Deck cards. :/ Link to comment

GurrenRaider25 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Yes actually. -First of all he doesn't equip a Dragunity tuner. That's pretty negligible however because of his eff but it's still something that bugs me. -Secondly his effect requires you have more Dragunities waiting in the wings. So it becomes a problem late game if you topdeck him late game and they've already gotten rid of Ravine then all you have is an 1800 beater. (I'm aware the Tuners would cause the same scenario but somehow I'd imagine that feels less crummy simply because that's not their job) -Lastly the spacing issues. Deck space is tight because you NEED to access ravine as soon as possible so absolutely no going over 40. And I couldn't see myself kicking anything out for this guy in spite of the amazing plays he provides. Link to comment

GurrenRaider25 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 I'm not saying this thing is a bad card. I'm just saying that I wouldn't use him because I'd have these issues with it. Link to comment

Agro Posted August 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Actually, looking back, maybe I should edit Tathlum's effect. As it is, it basically turns Dux into a Trident Dragion, doesn't it? Can't have that now can we?[quote name='βyakk' timestamp='1344927903' post='6006901'] Tenebris is stupid. [/quote]As far as combos go, I don't see it doing much more than a Mystletainn. Unless I'm missing something. Editing Tathlum's effect to be once per turn whether it's revived multiple times or not.
