~British Soul~ Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 https://ygorganization.com/dp26-kairyu-shin-leviathan/ Kairyu-Shin – Leviathan WATER/Level 5/Sea-Serpent/Effect You can only use the (2) effect of this card’s name once per turn. (1) While “Umi” is on the field, each player can only control 1 face-up non-WATER monster (if a player controls 2 or more face-up non-WATER monsters, that player sends those monsters to the GY until they control only 1). (2) During your Main Phase: You can add 1 “Umi” or 1 “Kairyu-Shin” Spell/Trap or 1 “Sea-Stealth” Spell/Trap from your Deck to your hand. 2000/1700 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamazenta the OS-Tan Fan Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 Why is it a Level 5 that has no way to Special Summon from the hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerer Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 That's just... Extremely good. Especially if you go first. A Gozen Match that specifically locks into WATER + a free OPT search. It's searchable off the new support + old Atlantean stuff, and it shouldn't be too difficult to get it on the field. Getting rid of Umi would normally be the easiest way to counter this, but old Sea Stealth Attack protects Umi from destruction and the new one is treated as Umi (so you can't simply use Cosmic Cyclone). It also searches the card that searches Torrential, so you have to also contend with a board wipe. Definite 2-of linchpin card for any water deck that has its own Umi.

Ultimagamer Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 This card has pretty good synergy with Physalia (new jelly fish). In fact, it's a really potent 2 card combo. Normal summon Physalia, dump Umi to summon the new card from hand, and use it's effect to search Sea Stealth Attack. During your opponent's turn, activate SSA and retrieve the Umi you sent for Physalia. You now have a spell or monster negate, and a floodgate. Both halves of the combo can be searched with Fish Sonar for extra consistency. The search isn't on summon, so you can use it each turn for free cards. All around this is a solid card, even if it doesn't summon itself for a level 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayfield Lumina Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 12 hours ago, Dokutah Gory, Woundslinger said: Nah im sure our friendly water enthusiast neighborgh has some ideas @Rayfield Lumina Well yeah, the first thing that came to mind was, but Legendary Ocean makes it Lv 4. Not every single card in the game warrants a self summoning, and considering the overall power of the card it definitely didn't have space for such effect in it. I'm just getting too pumped up at the possibility of using Kairyu-Shin of the Reef along with this card, the abuseeeeeee. And welp, while it's a pity that Physalia is Aqua and not Sea-Serpent, it's prime critter to work along with this card, you can just send the Umi to the GY and activate directly from GY with Stealth. Honestly, right now I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed by the amount of support, which either goes for high level WATER stuff or covers Normal WATERS (or both), I have a feeling many recipes will form once everything is released. And I've been saying this for like 40 years, but, if only Warrior of Atlantis added Umi and not the actual Legendary Ocean... sigh. EDIT: Omg, I read all the other comments and Ultimagamer mentioned the Physalia combo much earlier than me lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
