xlArisenRoselx Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Not exactly a fan of Pentestag. It seems extremely underwhelming. It's markers could be useful, but the top marker is useless, other than providing your opponent with a new area for an extra deck monster. If it had an effect to utilize taking advantage of that, it could be better. Widget Kid seems to show promise. Cyberse r getting known for Summon spamming, and this helps achieve that goal very well. Also, I really like the card art here. Usually I don't use that when judging a card, but it is noteworthy here. Stats seem good, especially for a Level 3, and everything can work nicely with it. 8/10 IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 (Winter, could you modify the OP in the future for added stuff?)Widget Kid is nice, save for the Defense Position part. It's making plays for Link Summoning, so can't argue with it. Iffy on Pentestag; piercing isn't a bad thing, but I'm not keen on it having the Up marker in the EMZ. Least it just requires stuff to be linked and not explicitly to this card, so... In all, IDK about this.Whitehat is fine, since you're probably going to have 2 of the same Type anyway out on most occasions. Stat drop thing is fine.Recover's okay, I guess. Least you can get another monster back (idk, probably non-Link you used to summon that destroyed monster or something to avoid the EMZ rules.)Now to wonder what the cover card will be [likely another Code Talker monster].

Atypical-Abbie Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Pentestag is alright, if you want more options for an Up and Down link, this can work for you, too bad it can't also itself inflict piercing damage, unless the linked also refers to itself here, not sure if that's the translation being weird or what. Widget Kid, wow this is great, no Level restriction, is an "if" so never need to worry about Chains being messed up on Special Summon, doesn't negate its effect, can get another copy of itself (though OPT so won't matter, but still for Rank 3s). It's in Defense Position, but 99/100 will you use use it as material anyway. Will slide right in my Cyberse Deck for sure. Whitehat, well I feel that Cyberse have a lot of cards that can more easily be Special Summoned than this, and as it wants to be used as material you don't want to battle with it. 1000 ATK loss can be nice for low LINK monsters to get over some things, and it works well in other type specific Decks as well. Could have slight use. Recover, interesting but slow, works well with other kinds of ED monsters, but your opponent would most likely take out the Link first for that. I wish it wored for each copy of this card instead, don't think that would be too powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 The up arrow isn't a downside. If you have a link monster in EMZ that points downward, such as Firewall Dragon, placing this in the MMZ beneath it will then grant piercing damage to Firewall. Too bad it still doesn't funking do anything. Considering security dragon has the same arrows, is more generic, and has a better effect, things aren't spelling well for Pentestag. Maybe being DARK will help it in the future, but even then I think most applications for "easy to summon DARK cyberse link 2" would prefer Underclock taker.

If you link this to any monster, even an opponent's, it will be able to pierce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
