MarbleZone Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Yes, I know it's been discussed... but only a couple of metas ago, if I'm not mistaken. If I am, feel free to lock. I'd like to know if this card is seeing any play nowadays, if it's still useful against today's most used decks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skuldur Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 it's not useful, it can't be special summoned. and needs 2 tributes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booming Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I know a guy that plays L&DDragon in fact 3 of them. I know a great combo that will prevent the destruction of your cards and resummon it the next turn with it's full power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Not really worth the effort to summon. There are better things I would rather throw 2 monsters away for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarbleZone Posted November 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Not really worth the effort to summon. There are better things I would rather throw 2 monsters away for. Are there? DMoC is banned... When and why did this card make its big impact? I didn't keep up with the competitive game back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 The difference between this and DMoC is that DMoC can actually be Special Summoned and even if you Tribute Summon it, it can sorta make up for the slight loss of advantage by allowing you to get a Spell Card back. Possibly something that will really help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabris Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 One of the greatest cards Konami has ever created - I mean, they've really done a great job in creating this card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaos Pudding Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 One of the most balanced-yet-playable cards to ever exist. It's a shame that there are so many broken cards speeding up the meta to the point where this card isn't viable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konami is now extolling the broken for the sake of milkin' more money out of the game. Sad picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiro Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 This card deserves it's uber awesome art and for once, uber awesome art is not wasted to a bad card. Anyway, I like this card in LS with Trade-In Draw Engine, but right now it's wiser to use Angel 07 instead of it because a good player won't have a hard time to kill this thing. They can just Effectspawn it or chain 2 cards to each other. It's also very good in a lockdown deck with this and Plasma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazer Yoshi Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Slow to get out, but it's DEFINETELY worth it once it's Out. One of the Best Dragons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Off topic: Manjoume beats Judai with this card in the GX manga. On topic: This card is sweet. The fact that it needs to be tribute summoned is a bit annoying, but this card in Perfect Circle = win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarbleZone Posted November 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Off topic: Manjoume beats Judai with this card in the GX manga. Why do you think I remembered to make a thread about it to begin with? :P Question. Since it says the effect is negated, but not that the card is destroyed, can the opponent choose to activate an effect that can be used several times per turn until LaDD's ATK is low enough to destroy it by battle?

~/Coolio Prime\~ Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Maybe put Reverse Trap in a deck revolving around this card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna Diviner Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 First Effect, ruins it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarbleZone Posted November 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 First Effect' date=' ruins it.[/quote'] I wouldn't say it "ruins" it, since it was one of the top cards in the game around a year ago, and Special Summoning was every bit as favoured back then as it is now.

Tabris Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 First effect balances it. Fixed. Think of the horror: LADD in Grave + LADD on field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabris Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Basically, summon LADD. If LADD goes to the Grave, select the other LADD. Rinse, repeat, and rape your opponent. Something like the combo with Herald of Creation and LADD, only much, much worse... ... that is, if you remove the first sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarbleZone Posted November 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I'm lead to believe that's one of the main reasons the first effect is there to begin with, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werewolfjedi Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 and there honestly isn't enough room for "from the Graveyard" on the card, i mean look at it, it's filled to the brim, would you want to have to read this thing with a magnifying glass? on the reverse trap note, if you chain to your other effect that will lower it's attack, I would think it would work for the turn, increasing the amount by 500 instead. then you spam effects until it's freaking huge and then attack with it. anything used to stop will be negated and make it even stronger (not that they would try to stop it, it is just a waste.)

Azure Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I think it is an O.K card, sometimes I use mine (mainly for my Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Begining) in some of my decks, it can come in handy if you summon it (unlikely). So it isn't much of a kick ass card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akira Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 It only saw competitive play back in the days of PC due to it's ability to pay for itself by rezzing up disk commander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemniscate Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 well, this card is a classic example of a great card with great art being completely unplayable because of everything around it. Such a shame too, i hope it will become viable at some point, because it is a really good card.although the already mentioned thing where it combos with itself is pretty cool.
