Gearfried the Iron Ghoul (Alternate Name: Iron for the Sweet Release Restraint of Death)

[Black D'Sceptyr]

Don't worry, that above title was mainly for that humor and puntastrophes, I don't actually yearn for death. Unless its of that third trimester of an Archetype known as Satellarknights.

 

 

[spoiler=Gearfried the Iron Ghoul: Info]

DARK/Zombie-Type Effect Monster/Level 4/1800 ATK/1600 DEF

 

Lore: If a Zombie monster(s) leaves the field: You can reveal this card in your hand, then target 1 banished Level 4 or lower Zombie monster you control, except "Gearfried the Iron Ghoul"; Special Summon this card, and if you do, equip that target to this card. You can send 1 card equipped to this card to the GY, then declare 1 Tuner's name; until the end of the turn, this card is treated as a Tuner, also its name name become that monster's name. You can only use each effect of "Gearfried the Iron Ghoul" once per turn.

 

 

 

So this character is in the Zombie-Counterparts for one reason: 

 

 

But also because it's promoting one monster through its name switching effect, and that is ol' Plaguey  boi. Yes, Plaguespreader Zombie is a linchpin to a non-insignificant number of Zombie Synchros, and bringing them back online in a way BESIDES Shiranui Spectralsword is paramount towards making sure the Zombies have full capacity in their station. Especially Doomkaiser.

 

So this allows you to recycle your banished Zombies-and trust me, you'll have them if you're in any way wanting for a Turn 1 board, and appropriates Tuner names in the interim by destroying them. Simliar to Gearfried the Red-Eyes Iron Knight, yet not.

 

Should be a cinch to see how it keeps the train of Zombies going, especially with Glow-Up Bloom and Shinobi Necro now joining the party of good recurrable bani-Zombies.

 

Until the next card: Reviews, revelry, you know the drill.
