These are pretty insane pieces of Shark support. Also Number 4: Stealth Kragen is another good Utopia Dragner target, given that it does not even require materials to be a Zoodiac Drident (+ burn).

How far we’ve gone when Drident clones are commonplace eh?

I get that immortality loop of the original is too much given that quick-pop+burn it has. But man extra stipulation to justify that wont hurt much eh konami

Oh well it still works as intended, cant complain much

Out of the 4 fake numbers this one is my fav tbh

I mean ... that is a low price to pay for the first effect of Number 4: Stealth Kragen. The original required external Attribute manipulation (or going up against WATER decks), the new one has that DNA Transplant build into itself.

I mean the special summon effect, while it does not have OPT but limited with Number 4 requirement to be Xyz summoned to summon the spawn. Thus not looping

I understood what you meant. My point was that losing that is a small price to pay to not have to deal with the Attribute specific nonsense the anime-version has to be deal with.
