Darj Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monstersDuring either player's turn, if a monster with higher ATK than this Synchro Summoned card is on the field: You can destroy the 1 face-up monster on the field that has the highest ATK (your choice, if tied). This effect can only be used once while this card is face-up on the field. Making a thread for this card because it became TCG legal recently and I was looking forward to it. Good stats for a Synchro6, generic, and a great non-targeting quick effect removal. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this now one of the best generic Synchro6s around, along Nothung? Although, as far as I know, dropping Synchro6s isn't as common in the current meta, this should be an amazing addition for those decks that can and want to drop them.Furthermore, this is not exactly big news, but 2400/2000 stats backed up with that effect make it a good target for Dragon's Bind. I like how as a FIRE it can be used by Shaddolls to Summon Egrystal, on the off-chance the latter becomes relevant. Then again, they could use Vulcan the Divine already, but it's more awkward to play because of its mandatory bounce effect. I find its name a bit silly as well: It is so simple and a bland "it's a wyvern with a red coloration, duh", and yet it's such a solid card. Discuss.

Lizardonx Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 It's funny when you use something like book of moon to have it kill itself. Reminds me of movies where the hero causes the enemy's heat seekers to hit themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premier Alexander Romanov Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 It would've been even better for Jack.dek if it was DARK instead of FIRE. But other than that, it's a pretty good card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 One of my favourite things about this card is that despite the fact that it's a great level 6 Synch, it's quite cheap as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synchronized Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 It can get over Forerunner (though it'll then float) and isn't the worst lv6 option against Nekroz either. It doesn't inherently stop plays, but it at least forces the opponent to waste a card to get over it. Shame it has the "if this synchro summoned card is on the field" clause, at least then you could revive it and get more utility out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 get Maury in here, who's the dad?I mean the fact how This card bares a resembles to Red Dragon Archfiend, which is what I'm getting at. So the name is perfectly fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted October 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Yeah, the name is fine and I get that this is a younger version or relative of Red Dragon. I just found the name too simple for what the card does. I mean, I would expect this kind of name on a smaller fry or, let's say, a Level3 or lower maindeck monster, but not on a strong monster such as this one.

Kyle4898 Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 Red Wyvern is a pretty good card, its just the attribute and effect that could be better. Considering the fact that the new Red Dragon Archfiend Support deals with Level 8 DARK Dragon Type Synchro Monsters and that this is a FIRE Attribute monster really puts a damper on the use. For example if this was a DARK Attribute monster than you could use it to double tune with 2 Red Resonators to Synchro Summon Tyrant Red Dragon Archfiend, you could use Red Wyvern and a Level 3 Resonator or other Tuner and Synchro Summon for Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Abyss and lastly you could use this card and Guerilla Kite or Rose, Warrior of Revenge to Synchro Summon for Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Bane. With all these possible Synchro`s it really makes me wonder why a FIRE Attribute, Red Nova Dragon`s Attack is Burning Soul yet its still a DARK Attribute Monster. With the Attribute being addressed its really the reason with Red Rising Dragon is the better choice. Second Red Wyvern`s effect can only be used ONCE while its face up so after you use it, its only uses are its ATK and Synchro Material. Now I admit this effect is pretty useful but being able to only use it once only makes it prey to be destroyed by your opponent next turn. In this age of playing Yugioh getting a monster out with 3000 ATK or destroying it with a card effect is simply child's play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
