Cyber Altair Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 [align=center]Castle Gate Castle Gate Group: Rock/Effect Type: Earth Level: 6 Atk: 0 Def: 2400 This card cannot be destroyed by battle. Once per turn, if this card is in face-up Attack Position, you can Tribute 1 Level 5 or lower monster to inflict damage to your opponent equal to that monster's original ATK. RulingIf you use "Shield & Sword" to switch the original ATK and DEF of a monster and then Tribute it with "Castle Gate", the damage inflicted will be equal to the monster's unaltered original ATK. For example, if you use "Shield & Sword" to switch the original ATK and DEF of "Mystic Tomato" and then Tribute it with "Castle Gate", you will inflict 1400 damage to your opponent's Life Points. You can Tribute a monster whose Level is reduced to 5 or less by a card effect. If you Normal Summon "Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast" without Tributes and reduce its Level to 5 or less with a card effect, when you Tribute it with "Castle Gate" you will inflict 2800 damage to your opponent's Life Points ("Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast's" original ATK). When you Tribute a monster with a printed ATK value of "?", no damage is inflicted to your opponent's Life Points. Can be found in Phantom Darkness. It's a cool card, yes 1 Tribute and it can be destroyed easily be Smashing Ground but it's cool. It can survive the Monarchs attacks plus it a good burn card, my opinion. So what do you guys think of it? i got the rulings info of Xerocreative so it will be easy for us to discuss it.[/align] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
God GAK Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Well, it is ok. undestructible by battle but isn't offensive at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Altair Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 yes, very good as a stall card due to great defence points plus burn damage althought it's meant for urn decks not stall and never mix stall and burn in a deck, mostly fail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sander Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Unplayable Why? 1st: It has to stay in ATK position, even not destroyable, you still get the damage2nd: Monsters don't stay on the field for an long time in this game anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then, you'll probably receive as much battle damage as the burn you inflicted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axiom_Nor Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 As said above.although, using with Giant Rat, summon this, and use its effect... Catapult Turtle is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Supreme Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 This card as stall = FAIL! Long ago, this card would be great, now, with the Smashing, Fissure, Hammer Shot, Raiza on the loose, just NO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Altair Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 but has burn potentials right? and if it faces a Monarch by battle it can survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Supreme Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 In Battle ONLY. Zaborg, Gaius or Raiza would take it DOWN. You should compare cards lower than Monarchs to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parting Shot Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 It does have some burn potential, but I agree with kizzi that having to leave it in attack position would end up getting you as much damage as you can cause in a turn. And, it has some stall potential, but there are so many things that could destroy it that it would be hard to keep out, and thus negate it's worth in a stall deck.

Exiro Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Castle Gate, so the idea is that if he is in ATK mode, the gates are 'open' and both players can deal damage right?Well, then it's a stupid gate, because you can just burn one monster per turn, while your opponent can storm into the gate and attack your life points directly with all his monsters. Also, if you want to burn, you've got to tribute that monster for some reason :\And it says original ATK, which just sucks. The lvl 5- monster with high Original ATK I can think of is King of the Skull Servants, especially with the new Servant in LoD. This card would go very well with Spirit Barrier to close the gate for the opponent and open it for youself, and maybe a HoCW to make him a little more invincible, but Vortex is still used much and doesn't target so he would die anyways by that.

Orochi Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 don't like this... a bad effect that leaves you attack-open, only worth in defense, but millenuim shield has higher defense... also this card is easy victim of smashing ground and shield crush (which happens to be at least 1 of those 2 on every deck) even the buern effect sucks, to lose field advantage to deal damage is not so good unless you play stall decks... and to be a worth effect a monster over 2400 must be sacrificed... guess what, unless it would be a normal monster or 7-8 stars monster the effect is not worth...

King of the Skull Servant's effect is a Continuous effect, which means it needs to be on the field to work. After being tributed, it's in the graveyard.
