Masked HERO Divine Wind

[Bringerofcake]

 

Must be Special Summoned with "Mask Change" and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. Cannot be destroyed by battle. Your opponent can attack with only 1 monster during each Battle Phase. When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard: You can draw 1 card.

 

Literally the only name change, and to the best name ;_;

 

 

[BANZAI!!!!]

I'm cool with the literal translation. Kamikaze has other connotations in the US so it might be for the better.

 

Effect is nice, im a fan of the art. 'nuff said.

So Mask Change Second --> Mask Change II doesn't count?

 

As for the card; absolute shit in Heroes, because the only good target is Avian, which wouldn't be so bad if Rabbit wasn't @1.

 

It's still at it's best in MPBs, as your opponent can't clear out your tokens all that easily (and you can use Tokens with Mask Change II, giggity)

or you run non Heroes in Heroes.. which you're already doing. look at my hero build. Droll & Lock Bird, Star Psycher, and Search Striker are great options to tech into a Hero deck for Divine Wind.

What name change?

His name didn't change.

[CLG Klavier]

Exactly. It just got translated. Kamikaze DOES mean "Divine Wind" :P

.. No they aren't. They are NOT great options. At all. This is terrible terrible advice. The only good wind tech for heros right now is Tengu, and even that isn't all that great currently.

[Forest Fire]

what does Tengu do besides re-summon itself? nada. At least the cards I mentioned do shit.

... That's the point of the card.

[Dementuo]

If by "do shit" you mean "are shit" then you're correct. All of the cards you mentioned will make your deck significantly more inconsistent, unless you're running a bad and already very inconsistent version of HEROes already. Tengu is only really a viable option because it's level 4 and it floats. That's really about it, and even then it's more consistent and better to just forgo the WIND monster entirely.

 

Because Stratos (the only good WIND HERO) is banned, this card unfortunately falls pretty flat. Stratos should stay banned mind you, but I admit it's a bit of a shame that a cool option like this gets shafted because of it.

In any case, it's pretty obvious that if there's one thing the game is sure of, it's not that

Tengu is a bad card.

[Forest Fire]

but the cards i mentioned give something. tengu is just. "now i'm gone. now i'm not" twice. that's it. droll and lock is a nice card to have against any deck that likes to draw a lot, search striker is another anti shaddoll card and an anti ghostrick card, and psycher messes with xyz and synchro spam. now tell me how a card that literally just replaces itself is better than any of that.

I refer you back up a paragraph.

glad i checked the code before saying something. idk what to say to this really.. i think you're saying that tengu is not a bad card, but i'm not sure. grammar is not my strong suit. 

[Slinky]

Again, Tengu replacing itself IS THE POINT OF THE CARD. Recurring 1700 beaters are actually a pretty big thing, even by today's standards, and it would still be in nearly every deck in 3s if Performing an Xyz Summon was treated as removing the monsters from the field.

[Forest Fire]

and the fact that replacing itself is the point of the card makes it good.... right. no flaw in that logic at all.

ooh a 1700 beater... that's so much better than a 1600 beater that does piercing and negates flip effects of the cards it destroys. totally. 

[Dementuo]

did you know qliphorts have re summonable beaters and that makes them significantly better than they would be otherwise

did you also know that maining shitty side cards is a great way to make your deck x10 less consistent and lose every matchup because you draw side cards that do jack shit vs what you're actually playing against

 

please refrain from trying to sound intelligent when you clearly know nothing about deck construction

Stop acting like a retarded. stuck-up. idiot.

Seriously, bearing in mind that you have to discard a card to use Mask Change II in the first place, using tengu means that it turns from a -2 to a -1 which is significantly better.

Also using all those techs is really bad when you have generic wind that gives plusses instead of minusses aswell as not being a horrendously bad draw, i.e droll and lock 

happy now ?

i mean there's a reason tengu dominated two formats while whatever shit card you're talking about was totally useless

[Slinky]

Search Striker doesn't do any of those things.

It skips damage calc and kills the fd monster with its effect. Thus ignoring the flip effect, but setting off the Shaddoll monster's other effect instead.

 

Replacing itself doesn't always mean it's good. But in the case of Tengu, it replaces itself in most scenarios. Fusion Summon? Replaces. Synchro Summon? Replaces. Destroyed by battle or effect? Replaces. Tributed for something? Replaces. Sent by Mask Change II? Replaces.

Best part? IT CANNOT MISS TIMING

 

It is a ridiculously good card, but the dominance of Xyz Summons right now have made it seen a lot less play. Heroes? They don't focus on Xyz Summons as much as their mask change plays currently, which is why Tengu becomes a somewhat Viable option.

[iCherries]

I don't think Mask Change Second to Mask Change II counts all that much, but-

I hate that Heroes can't make this without Form Change or Mask Changing Avian. He's my favorite one ;_;. He's just such a solid battler even if he's open to hits by effect removal (unless you pull a sick dodge with another Form Change), but he's just got no realistic options to be made from in Heroes otherwise.

This (among other things) is why we need ways to change a monster's Attribute that are more useful than Scroll of Bewitchment.

Yeah, anyone remember that?

[Expelsword]

This is the kind of thing that means we shouldn't have easy ways to change attributes.

[玄魔の王]

So Mask Change Second --> Mask Change II doesn't count?

It's not Uncommon for something Japanese to use II and read it as "sekando", or "second". ZeXal did it.

The card's effect is sweet, but lack of a good WIND HERO kills it. We need a replacement for Stratos.

Also, I'm still mad about Blast and Moment Mask Change.

[Alastar Rainford]

Best use this has in Heroes is its a form change target

[SANDAA BORUTO]

This has won me games in TF7 before. It's a 2700 Nova Master that can't die by battle and is ALSO a walking Dark Door! This thing combined with Dark Law can provide a really evil scenario for your opponent.

[heraldry_lord]

If Konami of either side had bothered to release a decent alternative to Stratos, Divine Wind would have a chance in both TCG and OCG, but only one side has a good WIND HERO to go into this. He's still a Form Change and Mask Change II target though, if that means anything.

 

Also, I wish they had given us a better FIRE Masked HERO.
