2+ "Gouki" monsters
The first time each monster this card points to would be destroyed by battle each turn, it is not destroyed. During your Main Phase: You can activate this effect; you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except "Gouki" monsters, also your opponent Special Summons up to 2 monsters from their GY, then you Special Summon up to that many "Gouki" monsters from your GY to your zone this card points to, except Link Monsters. You can only use this effect of "Gouki Destroy Ogre" once per turn.

remember when we got special summon evolution and it gave us 4 amazing cards + 1 meme card for a bad deck

 

this is pretty much the opposite

 

I mean yeah, this is funny, but that's about it. Opponent reliant revival with Xenophobia clauses is eh, and battle protection at links... whyyyyyy?

 

reloader and accelerator are similar

 

at least we got Bloody Mary as a good card

Probably Konami not thinking of what Gouki (or really anything not named Trickstars) need to function properly as a serious Deck, and instead making this as a thematic card for Go to use at some point. But honestly, I really see no reason to use this over Great/Thunder (if at all).

 

Going off what you mentioned in Discord, this could've been left with more lenient requirements (as opposed to strictly requiring Archetypal members), but still would be meh. That, and why is it named DESTROY Ogre when none of its effects even do that? Only salvation for it is that its markers are always active, but that's it.

This is terrible. Its only usable effect is a watered down version of Amazoness Queen's, the other isn't usable because your opponent can opt-out (and that's the best case scenario).

 

It's a little jarring that an Archetype-specific Link 4 can be this bad. 

At a guess, the Spec will be min 1. It's still bad, but not like that.

Card does have a raison d'etre in that it actually gives Thunder Ogre something to ladder into that isn't Topologic or Varrel Lord.

But like

Topologic and Varrel Lord
