玄魔の王 Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Oh yes, this guy again. Certainly one of the most annoying cards to run into in online play. During either player's turn: You can send this card from your hand to the Graveyard; this turn, each time your opponent Special Summons a monster(s), immediately draw 1 card. You can only use 1 "Maxx "C"" per turn. So apart from being almost constantly botched since his original printing in the TCG thanks to arbitrary ruling vs bad wording (basically, it should say "You can only use the effect of "Maxx "C"" once per turn", and as worded it implies you cannot do anything else with it the turn you use it, contrary to the OCG lore and the original printing), This guy is generally a format barometer. Whether somebody is maining, siding or not even using this guy, and in what quantities for the former 2, pretty much tells you how fast a format is. So where does he stand this format.

Spinny Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 He is okay, but im yet to use him this format. He is ,however, always going to be strong in the lower tier/ more casual decks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 It's that time of the format again... Where we decide if you live or not, depending on if you topdeck This card or not. And it's pretty fuckin' stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 I rarely get more then a +1 off of this. I would love to at least get a +2 but it never seems to happen. On the bright side though, your opponent will more then likely stop Special Summoning for the Turn so there is that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest Fire Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Yosenju's will just laugh at this and keep on spamming. Most other decks will probably just stop ssing when it's dropped and make it pretty irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most other decks will probably just stop ssing when it's dropped and make it pretty irrelevant. That's kind of the point of the card though. Maxx C is a strategic card. You drop it at a critical point when you can force your opponent into a dilemma. They either have to commit to OTKing you, or stop and buy you a turn. Rarely if ever will you drop this pre-emptively. And if you're siding it in against Yosenju you don't know what you're doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say you would side this against yosenju, i was just commenting on it's use; but you would probably have this sided for those decks it [i]can[/i] be used against. I understand it's strategic value, but here's a question that springs to mind: are there other cards that do what it does, or something similar, but better? Vanity stuff seems to fill a similar niche, but instead of offering a dilemma to your opponent they just stop ssing. I kinda like that this offers a choice to your opponent; it's interesting.

J-Max Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Just to clarify though. If your opponent is about to Special Summon say 3 monsters to the field at once (wether it be by Pendulum or other means) do you get 1 card for each monster? Or just 1 card from the first monster? Has always confused me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catman25 Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 You get one card total. Also this thing shits on rit beasts, and Fire Fists, I should know, I took the challenge with Ritual Beasts and made the guy draw like 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 This is also really sweet against BA since you can chain it to most of the SS effects. Well...BA's pretty much the biggest reason to use this card atm~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 It's a pretty standard side card this format which is excellent against B.A. and good in the Nekroz mirror since you'll never need to keep an empty hand as your field should be empty for each of your opponent's turns unless you can guarantee a win. I'd be inclined to main this in Nekroz since it's good against everything bar Yosenju and Volcanics (lol) and it does give you an edge in the Mirror as your opponent's almost forced to keep SSing once they summon one thing because they need to summon a Valk to empty their field.

Zauls Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Its always the first card I put into any side deck. Honestly its almost a natural process to me now, like its "eat, breathe, side 3 Maxx C". Its so good against so many things and so easily side decked in everything.
