JessicaMuddy Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Speed-Roid Pend-Ul-Ums!Speed-Roid Pend-Ul-Ums!Wow That's A Bad Scale! At least its Pendulum effect get around it. Looks pretty neat, but I'm unsure how much play it would see in Speedroid decks that don't feature other Pendulums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None, considering as a monster it does not help them, considering they can do everything it does better, however if we have 3 or more (so this + domino + ?) and an acceptable searcher, it might be worth it, though that relies on how good domino butterfly is.

notcleverusername Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Really tired so can't think properly but main value lies in--1. Possibility of using Meteorburst to extend plays2. Possibility of Tribute Summoning to extend plays3. Fast Wing memes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nyx Avatar Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Unless they make more Speedroid Pendulum cards, I don't see this card being utilized often. The self-Summon effect would have helped more if it said "while you control no monsters", as this limits the scenarios it can be used in. Though, maybe that's because we already have Cyber Dragon, and don't want to blatantly outclass it. You'd either have to use a mass removal card, depend on your opponent to have nothing but Spell/Trap Cards, or Summon it on the very first turn. The other effects are okay. But again, unless they get more Pendulum cards, this one just seems cumbersome to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

玄魔の王 Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Well, that's one thing to do with all those SRs you don't want in your hand.None, considering as a monster it does not help them, considering they can do everything it does better, however if we have 3 or more (so this + domino + ?) and an acceptable searcher, it might be worth it, though that relies on how good domino butterfly is.Well Butterfly is already 1) a LV2 Tuner and 2) a Scale 8, so on those grounds alone probably fairly good.

The problematic aspect is that a) Speedroids do not gain anything by using pendulums b) pendulums require consistency (they have top ... but need it for more relevant plays). c) this card's scale contradicts the other one's summon d) b is crucial if the archtype only has a few pendulums, which, outside of pendulum plays, have no further use (e.g. scout).

BlackBeartic Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Looks cool af. Sadly it doesn't help the deck unless they get a matching scale :(. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jord200 Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 I remember seeing this like a month ago. I could have sworn it was a Scale 1....Maybe I just remembered wrong.... In any case, Scale 3 isn't TERRIBLE...but seems kind of bad for Speedroids given most of their monsters are Level 3 or 4...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Highlander Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Guitaars is a 7 and gives you a double summon 2300 level 5 machine from deck. So you end on a scale 3-7 (does not include CWFD) and a double summon level 5 with 2.3k ... for investing 3 cards ... congratulations ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that card in hand cannot be sacrificed you don't have to do it. Like you need an opposing scale and this one can grab a 5/tuner 1/others from deck to enable/extend plays. What exactly are you expecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ENMaker Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Why are ye looking at this as if it and Guitaars are just scales. Terrortop + Guitaars gets Crystal Wing with the 1 tuner, or Infinity with Miccs. The fact it's a complimentary scale to this is just further bonus because should you now have the ability to pend on top of everything else.

The fact it's a complimentary scale to this is just further bonus because should you now have the ability to pend on top of everything else. Because Guitaars does not add anything the deck struggles with and top + (red-eye, tri-eye, denko or borg) is a crystal wing anyways. It is unnecessary and the deck does not need to invest 2 cards just to special summon 1 monster, which does not even belong to the archtype.

It is unnecessary and the deck does not need to invest 2 cards just to special summon 1 monster, which does not even belong to the archtype.The deck needs more good WIND monsters, has a problem with needing more Normal Summons, has a problem with their cards being dead in the hand, AND has a problem with board presence in general. Between Guitaars and Miccs, it adds a lot to the deck that it normally struggles with. Even if you don't pendulum summon it. And after you sync with Miccs, you can PS it back with a copy of this for infinity. You have a real issue with dismissing thinbgs out of hand, regardless of actual implications. This card may not sound astounding on its own, but it DOES fix a number of issues (Dead in the hand, more board presence (Effect OR PS, in theory), outside of Terrortop plays, without taking away from Ttop.

goodfusion Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 I love it because it's a roid Pendulum, which is obviously pretty cool with Expressroid, which is a cool card. Now lets hope Domino Butterfly doesn't have any stupid WIND restrictions tacked on... or is also a V Jump promo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Progenitor Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 I feel like the other scale will be able to bounce this back to hand so that you can Tribute Summon it after you pendulum summon. Opens up a ton of cheeky shenanigans if that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
