The second part of the spell’s Effect is cool, this thing seems like it has good meme value with gravity bind or skill drain or something like that, as cool as it is I don’t think it’s too practical competitively.

Any good traps to go with this guy?  I honestly think a deck on him alone can be made.

Like i said probably full field traps like gravity bind, skill drain, or debilitating traps like that

Skill Drain

Anti-Spell Fragrance

Unending Nightmare

Lose 1 Turn

Mistake

Imperial Order

(Royal Decree)

Limit Reverse

Call of the Haunted

Phantom Knight's Fog Blade (to have a searchable enabler)

 

Basicly Traps that do not rely on a target remaining on the field and preferably any kind of floodgate you can have face-up after it gets summoned (given Pre-Prep and the recent Ritual Support).

Is this by the same artist of the cyber angels?

Should have been Level 7 for Preparation of Rites :v

I find funny that it re-stocks itself and the Ritual Spell into the deck.

The monster looks a bit too fair to be good in nowadays meta. Maybe if it had an stronger effect vs. Traps, like a 1-sided Jinzo. Grabbing Traps from either GY is cool but Traps aren't widely used either, except in OCG Altergeists. What would be the most common target? Infinite Transience and the Solemns?

I'm thinking it could be a weird boss in a Trap Monster deck. Metal Reflect Slime can act as the full Tribute, which is neat.

I wonder how many realize that this is Bastion's monster. Cuz I didn't. I had to wiki it to see why this card is in CP. Don't know why I don't remember this monster appearing in GX at all.

[Draconus297]

Because it comes from the most forgettable of Bastion's/Daichi's Duels in the entire series- one of his occasional early matches v. Jaden/Judai.

[~ P O L A R I S ~]

YES! It only took a decade eh?

I reckon so, both this and those were from GX.
