evilfusion Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Frightfur_Sabre_Tiger Level 8DARK/Fiend/Fusion/EffectATK: 2400DEF: 2000 1 "Frightfur" Fusion Monster + 1 or more "Fluffal" or "Edge Imp" monsters When this card is Fusion Summoned: You can target 1 "Frightfur" monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it. All "Frightfur" monsters you control gain 400 ATK. If this card was Fusion Summoned using 3 or more monsters, it cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. Okay then. So I've been playing around with Fluffals for a little bit now. It's my casual IRL Fusion-based Deck to rival my IRL Xyz based Decks (Heraldic and Galaxy). I wasn't sure whether I wanted to discuss this card, or Wheel Saw Lion, because both are way better than I gave them credit for originally. I LOVE this thing. It combos really well with Scissor Tiger. I suppose that's more credit to Scissor Tiger than to this thing, since Scissor boosts by 300 x the number of Frightfurs and Fluffals, and this only does 400 total, regardless of the number of Frightfurs/Fluffals out. At first, I was really disappointed by this nerf, since the anime was 400x, not just 400. But it makes sense because it's easy to combo with Scissor Tiger, and that'd be 700x, and that'd be ridiculous with how many Frightfurs the Deck can throw out, and how good they tend to be. The Deck OTKs often enough without doing something that stupid. Unlike Scissor Tiger, this doesn't have a "You can only control 1" clause, so you can bring out multiples, which theoretically can give access to Rank 8s, but that's not really reliable. It can be fun, though, if you had a Sabre and it died already, and then you bring out another Sabre, and revive the first Sabre. 2 beaters with 3200, with potential Rank 8. The real shame to me is two-fold. First, the anime "ignored Summoning Conditions" for the SSed Frightfur, and Frightfur Leo and Wolf are both Nomi Fusions, so this can't revive Leo (probably for the better). The second shame is the Summon Condition. I'm half-hoping it's a translation thing, but I doubt it. Sabre Tiger explicitly says it needs a Frightfur FUSION monster. That means you can't use that stupid Edge Imp that acts like a Frightfur (which...you wouldn't, anyway), and you can't use a monster revived by Designer Frightfur. THAT is a damn shame, because it'd make this comically easy to bring out, in a Deck that already finds it comically easy to bring out. But in exchange for this slight nerfy, you can use Fluffals OR Edge Imps as Fusion Material. The flexibility here is awesome. And if you use 3 or more Materials (REALLY easy), it becomes Beelze. Granted, it can still be eliminated by non-destruction removal, or negating its effect, but it's a 2800 invincible beater that probably revived something like Scissor Tiger or Sheep. Ultimately, it's a significantly better boss than Mad Chimera, because it's SO much easier to Summon. Mad Chimera has its...uses, but the effort involved in Summoning it is so high and this requires a fraction of the Summoning cost. I've had situations where I could Summon Mad Chimera. But I wouldn't, because I may as well bring out this instead. And Mad Chimera is only remotely practical to Summon with Des-Toy Fusion. You can easily use Poly to bring this out. And Des-Toy Fusion can give you access to any of the more practical OTK machines that are Frightfurs. So...Discuss away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinny Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 It's single handedly their best fusion (bar tiger cus that is why this card is even better) since it finishes games like wolf does but doesn't require AS much materials.

BlackBeartic Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Yeah this card is no joke. A little off topic though Mad Chimera's best use is by Frightfur March (which idk if people run in academa.dek) and then it becomes fusion fodder for a card like this :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a Frightfur March proxy-teched. When it works, it's ridiculously awesome. But otherwise, it's a dead card that's still searchable by Chain, so...not sure yet. It's occurred to me that my topics kill discussion before it's started because I say almost everything that can be said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give this guy 3rd best, not second. Sheep is too damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 I still feel cheated they nerfed the ATK boost and that it needs Fusion Monsters, because the latter could have justified Frightfuloid in the deck. Still, it's a vicious bugger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
