Rescue Cat (errata)


Recommended Posts

The first of three brothers

 

 

Original Effect:

 

You can send this face-up card to the Graveyard to Special Summon 2 Level 3 or lower Beast-Type monsters from your Deck. Those monsters are destroyed during the End Phase.

 

I would say it could come back to 1 as is, except Uniflora-Quasar and Hootcakes are a thing now

 

So:

 

Cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck. You can send this face-up card to the Graveyard: Special Summon 2 Level 3 or lower Beast-Type monsters with the same name from your Deck, but their effects are negated.Those monsters are destroyed during the End Phase.  You can only use the effect of "Rescue Cat" once per turn.

 

It's bad with with Hoot, but the uniflora loops are gone atleast

 

Honestly it's best with the fireking guy

They TRIED to fix Rescue Cat. They called it Rescue Rabbit.

 

And this is just essentially attempting to apply Rescue Rabbit's attempted balance effect to Rescue Cat, while maintaining the Level 3 or lower Beast thing.

 

Which WOULD probably make Cat okay. But it'd also make Cat really underwhelming other than in Racoon decks.

Why was this banned? I've heard it had something to do with X-Sabers, but I wasn't around then, so I don't know.

The original reason was that X-Sabers had a conveniently lvl 3 beast tuner, meaning Cat was a one card Synchro from the deck. This is back when Synchros were still relatively new and had trouble being balanced.

 

Of course, as time went on, 1 card synchro now meant sheet all. But new things popped up and it's stayed banned pretty much to keep from limiting lvl 3 beasts solely based on "Cat can abuse it", as seen by Spinda's video.

In other words, X-Saber Airbellum can go burn in Hell. Plus this is when Brionac ( The Synchro ) was still around I think. AND Goyo.

IMO, it should go like this:

 

During the turn this card was Normal Summoned: You can Tribute this card; Special Summon 2 Level 3 or lower Beast-Type monsters from your Deck, but their effects are negated. Those monsters are destroyed during the End Phase.  You can only use the effect of "Rescue Cat" once per turn.
