Ally of Justice Decisive Armor

DARK - Level 10 - Machine/Synchro/Effect - 3300/3300

1 Tuner + 2 or more non-Tuner monsters

Once per turn, if your opponent controls a face-up LIGHT monster(s), you can activate 1 of the following effects: ●Target 1 Set card your opponent controls and destroy it. ●Send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard to destroy all Spell/Trap Cards your opponent controls. ●Send your entire hand to the Graveyard to look at your opponent's hand and send all LIGHT monsters in it to the Graveyard. Then, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the combined ATK of all monsters sent to the Graveyard this way.

 

Yes, I know that I had some more popular options for this post benchmark (Shooting Star, Greedy Venom, Teen Spirit Paladin), but I like the Duel Terminal storyline. Plus, I have an . . . interesting story to tell with this card.

 

Anyway, while definitely very format-dependent, this thing is an utter monstrosity if played in the right circumstance. Its Heavy Storm effect can bait or eliminate some ugly backrow. Then there's the hand killing effect, which I have a surprisingly recent anecdote about:

 

[spoiler= Storytime if you care]

So, I was hanging around a local card shop to try to do some trades to get my hands on the Lunalight Fusions to complete my collection, and I see an odd Duel going on between Infernity and Trickstars. A lot of the typical plays went on, and while the Trickstar player was starting pretty slow (only one Lycoris on board first turn) I wasn't really paying attention until I noticed the Infernity player with two Archfiend and a Necromancer . . . and bringing back a Beetle I hadn't noticed was in his Graveyard. He Tributes it and fills up his board . . .

 

Cue the Decisive Armor, a Jar of Avarice to put discard fodder in his hand, and the Trickstar player taking 5400 damage (2 Candina and a Lilybell) off this thing's last effect, 1700 battle damage off this thing, and freaking Infernity Beetle for game. I have never been so utterly amused.

 

 

 

Discuss this, and maybe its Nekroz counterpart?

For it to be searchable by Melody of Awakening Dragon perhaps, as someone highlighted to me once.

Anyway, I like this card too, but it was (or is?) really meta-dependent. It once won me a duel hilariously vs. Bujins with a silly Nordic Constellar variant by killing Crane on hand and IDK what else it had. Still, all it needed was a Bujin Beast-Warrior or Tenki the next turn to make all its Bujingis in the GY alive again, but luckily for me it didn't get into any of those before I swung for game.
