Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Card A sets up a Burgesstoma of choice instead of having to wait to draw it, which can be helpful if you need to. Also combos nicely with Alomalocaris (hopefully I spelled that properly) and other excavation techs in the Deck for plays, so there's that too. B can send "dead" S/T cards in order to set Burgesstomas that you'd want at that moment. As for it returning banished Burgesstomas, they have Leancholia for that (and it isn't restricted to just the Archetype), but it helps to get more resources back otherwise (even though they want to be in the Graveyard for the most part). Flavor-wise, it technically breaks the usual flavor of being able to SS itself when another Trap triggers (but this is the area where the Archetype originates from, not a specific species so it makes sense). ---Personally, I think both cards would be welcome additions to the current pool that they have, but overall I think B is a little better, so getting my vote. While Burgesstomas want to be in the Graveyard most of the time, being able to reuse their effects is nice and they need another way to recover their banished resources if you do not have Imperial Iron Wall up. That, and it's still Graveyard setup if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ÆƵ– Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Hoooo my gawd, why didn't anyone tell me my burglings were gettin some love?! Card A is a cat of ill omen in burg form, which can be nice with anomal and back jack, but otherwise it is widely outclassed by Opa. It is another name for pikaia to get draws off of though, so its not all bad. Card B is a psuedo Opa that can go off more than once, and it can get out more burgs while recycling then at the same time. The draw is nice, but isn't quite that necessary. My vote goes to card B because it has more usability than card A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love of Ghibli Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 My vote goes to card B, not because Card A is bad in any way...just B is...better. Card A: After reading every one of the Burgesstoma...I'm slightly confused. This card just combos with the 2.4k XYZ unless I'm missing something...which essentially means its a -1 in all other scenarios. Which in terms of deck space would you have room for it? A card that did not advance truly advance your gamestate and gave your opponent information about your next turn (unless you happen to have pikaia on the ready). Its nice as a set-up but in my opinion it "needs" other cards to be truly worth the work. Card B: Simply put its an all purpose card that does everything you could want in continuous trap. It recycles, searches and draws. I don't have any complaints I think many sets need something of this equivalent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dova Posted February 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Sorry man, not gonna accept it if you don't understand how Burgesstoma works, or even heard of it. Maybe Card A works better with the Archetype as a whole? If the cards support other cards, be sure to know what is being supported and whether there are any issues/nice combos with the created cards.
