Sure. How about a Level 6 WIND Synchro Monster?

[CatmanDaGamer]

Okay! The challenge starts now.

[CatmanDaGamer]

Cards are up.

Card A's Pendulum effect is a slight buff of the Fast Dragon Summoning effect, which allows for easy recycling in the event the card is destroyed. And by slight, I mean a big buff, because not only does this effect along with the Summoning Conditions not require a Speedroid, it is only restricted to wind, which allows a little splashing, but not too much. I dunno about the first monster effect, as there are only 2 MD Speedroids at present. On the plus side, it allows you to bring out either one of them or this card OR Fast Dragon if you don't want to Summon them, and that isn't too bad. My only concern is for Pendulum expansion in the future for Speedroids, but for the now it's fine. The into the Extra Deck effect is great when combined with the not so great searching within the archetype outside of Terrortop (And this can search terrortop, yay) and the SHOPT on both effects does nerf it a little, but so far not a bad card.

 

Card B is a generic battle wall, which seems interesting. I assume the counter placement happens regardless of how you lose the LP, but just that you lose it. While the Synchro monster Summoning effect isn't bad as such, it seems to need to be late game in order to work. The OPT on banishing it from the Graveyard is redundant as normal OPT reset upon changing location, and it doesn't really provide much in terms of speed. This card seems like a middle/late game card, but there are other options such as dante if I have 2 Level 3s, and I don't really see a deck that can pull this without something better.

 

Voting for Card A, as, although it's not fabulous, it does its job and significantly buffs SR Pendulums, and Card B has little power.

[Abdelrahman]

No objections ob my side. What about you, Catman?

Card A is basically a Meteorburst Dragon for Speedroids when summoned, although it's limited to Passinglider and Domino Butterfly at this time. Scale is slightly awkward (Scale 4 is generally like that anyway), but stuff like Double Yo-Yo needs to be NS'd anyway so it shouldn't be too much of an issue. Speaking of Butterfly, I suppose you could set that card in the Scale, Synchro Summon this, get Butterfly and Crystal Wing right away. The searching effect is fine.

 

The Pendulum effect is pretty much a copy/paste of Fast Dragon; granted, SRs don't really have options to retrieve it from the P-Zone, but I think it could've done more besides just SSing itself from there.

 

--------

Card B is really weak in terms of stats (yeah, it cannot die in battle while it has no ATK) and requires that you take a fair bit of damage to really get the most out of this. Yeah, it can be self-inflicted burn (or the opponent hits you somehow), battle damage, etc, but you're taking a lot of risk to summon something that CoTH can do better and with less restriction. Suppose it can help you set up for another Synchro in slower WIND decks, but I really don't see a reason to use this over the other Level 6 pool.

Voting for A.

No objections here

Final Bump

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

Deadline passed a couple hours ago, least from what I got from the OP, so unless either of you have final objections, A wins this 2-0.

 

Just make sure this gets recorded.
