CH.543 Extreme Victory
<span style="font-weight:400">Since my new God experiment went so well, after I got a message from Aulis about the next fissure, I decided to run another experiment. That being making a new card for Exodia. One where I wouldn’t need to use five cards to summon him.
<span style="font-weight:400">So I started like I do, taking out all five pieces of Exodia and Super Poly.

<span style="font-weight:400">I then began installing Exodia copies into the new card. The legs and arms went in fine, but when I tried to install the head, the card sadly began to disintegrate, and it couldn’t be saved.
<span style="font-weight:400">So apparently I’m not getting a one card Exodia that easily. I’ll keep experimenting. Maybe there is something I did wrong. Maybe I need to include a few of the Exodia variants in the fusion. They might stabilize the Forbidden Demi-God.
<hr>
<span style="font-weight:400">But before we get to that, I have a fissure to deal with. And since I wanted to test out my new Gods, I decided to go solo. Not like anyone is in a need of a limit break right now anyway.
<span style="font-weight:400">The fissure was happening in the middle of nowhere in Be Kingdom, so I didn’t have to worry about anyone seeing anything.
<span style="font-weight:400">At first, I thought about summoning both The Wicked Emptiness and Frigg, Goddess of the Aesir, but I decided against it. Just one of them can take care of this no problem. And since I was more interested in how Frigg fights, since Emptiness would just drain all of the HP of whatever monster appeared, I decided to summon Frigg. She then summoned her tokens.

<span style="font-weight:400">I then summoned Exodia, popped open the fissure and just watched over everything.
<span style="font-weight:400">The monster that appeared was the Nemean lion, an SS-rank lion monster. It equaled a Fenrir in size, but was actually considered stronger than the legendary wolf. Though at the cost of having less stamina, making the Nemean lion the easier of the two to actually deal with, as there was a chance you could tire it out, and then deal with it.
<span style="font-weight:400">The lion couldn’t match up to the tokens, so in no time at all, Frigg took down the Nemean lion.
<span style="font-weight:400">And because I dealt with a fissure, I got a new set. .
<hr>
<span style="font-weight:400">So after I got back to HomeBase, I immediately decided to open some packs.
Spoiler
<span style="font-weight:400">EXVC 1
<span style="font-weight:400">TG1-EM1; TGX300; Clock Resonator; The Resolute Meklord Army; Runaway Karakuri; Resonant Destruction; Boon of the Meklord Emperor; Mektimed st; Psychic Feel Zone
[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">TG1-EM1 is just Creature Swap, but you get to pick both targets and yours has to be a T.G. monster. It is fine, honestly.
<span style="font-weight:400">TGX300 is actually quite nice. I love attack boosting effects on Continuous Spells. And TGX300 is a pretty big one, in some situations. If I control 5 T.G. monsters, all of my monsters gain 1500 attack.
<span style="font-weight:400">Clock Resonator is just a Resonator. Nothing super special about it. Sure the destruction immunity is nice, but nothing crazy.
<span style="font-weight:400">The Resolute Meklord Army is pretty meh. Battle destruction immunity is nice, but it negates the attack gain effect of the Meklord Army monsters, which is not so nice. I’d rather have the extra attack stat than the battle immunity.
<span style="font-weight:400">Runaway Karakuri is a decent boost, but it is still a Karakuri card, so it sucks.
<span style="font-weight:400">Resonant Destruction is good, but it destroys itself after just 2 turns. Still good, just … Why does it need that restriction?
<span style="font-weight:400">Boon of the Meklord Emperor is way too specific.
<span style="font-weight:400">Mektimed st is pretty bad all things considered, but it does fit the Meklord ystyle.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Psychic Feel Zone is cool, but it doesn’t treat the summoning as a Synchro summoning, which is kind of a letdown.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.
Spoiler
<span style="font-weight:400">EXVC 2
<span style="font-weight:400">Esper Girl; Karakuri Ninja mdl 7749 "Nanashick"; Clock Resonator; Red Dragon Vase; TG-SX1; Psychic Reactor; Mental Seeker; T.G. Warwolf; Chaos Infinity
[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Esper Girl is … something. Don’t know what card you are supposed to use to resurrect her from banishment, but she is fine. And she is cute, which is important.
<span style="font-weight:400">Karakuri Ninja mdl 7749 "Nanashick" sucks, like all other Karakuri monsters. … okay, it actually is okay, but just way too slow for the time period.
<span style="font-weight:400">Red Dragon Vase is a wannabe Pot of Greed, but the downside is way too big, so you won’t actually use it.
<span style="font-weight:400">TG-SX1 is a hyper specific Monster Reborn, so not worth it.
<span style="font-weight:400">Psychic Reactor is too costly. I don’t want to banish my own Psychics just for that.
<span style="font-weight:400">Mental Seeker is not all that good.
<span style="font-weight:400">T.G. Warwolf is nice, just free Synchro material.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Chaos Infinity … yeah. What a name for a card. And the card is AWFUL! Who designed it? And named it Chaos Infinity? It should be named: ‘Meklords’ Terrible Trap’, not Chaos Infinity.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.

<span style="font-weight:400">EXVC 3
<span style="font-weight:400">Mektimed st; TG-SX1; Mental Seeker; Localized Tornado; TGX1-HL; Self-Mummification; Tyrant''s Tantrum; Lancer Dragonute; TGX3-DX2
[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Localized Tornado is a troll card. As in, a card that was designed to be awful.
<span style="font-weight:400">TGX1-HL is fine enough, as you are probably weakening a monster you’ll use as a Synchro material anyway. So you just get a ‘free’ MST. And I think MST was either banned or limited at this time, so I’ll let it be, even if it is just a worse MST.
<span style="font-weight:400">Self-Mummification is as bad as Localized Tornado. Why would you ever use it?
<span style="font-weight:400">Tyrant''s Tantrum might do something interesting in the real world, but as a card, it costs too much to activate for too little payoff.
<span style="font-weight:400">Lancer Dragonute just deals piercing damage, which is fine, but it has 1500 attack. Which isn’t enough for an effect like that.
<span style="font-weight:400">And TGX3-DX2 is perfectly fine. Recycling monsters and drawing cards is always good.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.
Spoiler
<span style="font-weight:400">EXVC 4
<span style="font-weight:400">Localized Tornado; Self-Mummification; Mental Seeker; Morphtronic Lantron; Fortissimo the Mobile Fortress; Psychic Reactor; Unknown Synchron; Esper Girl; Hushed Psychic Cleric
[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Morphtronic Lantron is actually fine. I really like having Machine-type monsters, as they can be reverse engineered for some cool stuff. Sure I already know how to make spotlights, but maybe I can improve them. And even outside of that, reflecting effect damage is good.
<span style="font-weight:400">Fortissimo the Mobile Fortress is good in the TCG. Free summons are always nice, but I don’t really need it.
<span style="font-weight:400">Unknown Synchron is kind of the same. Level 1 Tuners are good, and Unknown Synchron does special summon itself. But I don’t need that.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Hushed Psychic Cleric is a way to special summon a banished Psychic, so it works with those ‘special summoned from banishment’ effects.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.

<span style="font-weight:400">The Resolute Meklord Army; Runaway Karakuri; diator Beast Tygerius; W Neb Meteorite; Morphtronic Lantron; T.G. Warwolf; ESP Amplifier; Red Dragon Vase; Necro Defender
[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Why can’t diator Beast Tygerius be used as a Fusion material? It is a d Beast. That is what they do. They fuse.
<span style="font-weight:400">W Neb Meteorite is pretty nice for Worms.
<span style="font-weight:400">ESP Amplifier sucks, because it banishes everything. Sure some might call it a Psychic-type Limiter Removal, but it needs too much setup.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Necro Defender is fine enough.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.

<span style="font-weight:400">EXVC 6
<span style="font-weight:400">T.G. Jet Falcon; Axe Dragonute; Red Carpet; Six Style - Dual Wield; Red Dragon Vase; Clock Resonator; The Resolute Meklord Army; Meklord Astro Dragon Asterisk; Junk Servant
[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">T.G. Jet Falcon is pretty meh. 500 burn in an archetype that has nothing do with burn just doesn’t help.
<span style="font-weight:400">Axe Dragonute should have a bit more attack for an effect like that, but it isn’t bad.
<span style="font-weight:400">Red Carpet is great. Just special two tuners so you can summon Red Nova Dragon.
<span style="font-weight:400">Six Style - Dual Wield is very specific, but the effect is really powerful, so I can forgive that.
<span style="font-weight:400">Meklord Astro Dragon Asterisk can have quite a bit of attack, but that is all it has, big attack stat. I have easier ways of summoning huge monsters. I still like it though, because big attack, best attack.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Junk Servant is nice. Easy special summoning condition and okay stats.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.

<span style="font-weight:400">Unknown Synchron; TG-SX1; Morphtronic Lantron; Scrap Kong; Meklord Army of Wisel; Force Resonator; W Neb Meteorite; Reboot; Necro Defender
[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Scrap Kong is kind of stupid. You summon it, it kills itself. Sure it does recover a different Scrap to hand, but still. You wasted your normal summon for a card returned to hand.
<span style="font-weight:400">Meklord Army of Wisel is fine. Good attack, gains more if you control more Meklord Army monsters. And can give another Meklord Army piercing. Sure it might be the worst of the Meklord Army monsters, but it isn’t terrible.
<span style="font-weight:400">Force Resonator is slow and costly. But it is a level 2 Tuner, so just use it for that and ignore the effect.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Reboot is fine enough. You can recover a Meklord Army, hopefully Skiel, with it.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.

[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">T.G. Catapult Dragon is nice. Getting a free special summon is always nice.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Resonator Call is amazing. Just search for a Resonator.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.

[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Elder of the Six Samurai just special summons itself. Which is fine, but it could have some higher stats.
<span style="font-weight:400">Karakuri Komachi mdl 224 "Ninishi" has a lot of right ideas, but it suffers from being a Karakuri.
<span style="font-weight:400">Power-Up Adapter is an interesting power up card. Sadly it is quite specific, but still interesting.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Salvage Warrior is fine, despite the fact that you have to tribute summon him. He does special a Tuner from the GY when tribute summoned, so he reces the monster tributed for his summon.
<span style="font-weight:400">Next pack.

<span style="font-weight:400">Morphtronic Staplen; Clock Resonator; Reboot; Elder of the Six Samurai; Serene Psychic Witch; Red Dragon Vase; Boon of the Meklord Emperor; Psychic Reactor; T.G. Recipro Dragonfly
[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Morphtronic Staplen can cause a lock if you control two of them.
<span style="font-weight:400">Serene Psychic Witch can trigger the ‘special summoned from banishment’ effects of Psychic monsters, and it is in a great effect. So yeah, she is great.
<span style="font-weight:400">And T.G. Recipro Dragonfly is De-Synchro on legs. Or wings, I suppose.
<span style="font-weight:400">…
<span style="font-weight:400">Maybe I should do a few more packs? Maybe like 5 more? Yeah. Let’s do five more.

[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Out of the Blue is … what do I even say about it? I guess it can do stuff, but your opponent 100% knows it ising. So it definitely doesn’te ‘Out of the Blue’.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Sealing Ceremony of Mokuton is just a worse Soul Release.

<span style="font-weight:400">Brain Hazard is nice. Special a banished Psychic. And Psychics like that.

<span style="font-weight:400">diator Beast Essedarii is basically just a vani with 2500 attack. Which is fine, but I think there are better d Beasts to summon.

[copse]
<span style="font-weight:400">Wow. Four new cards in the fifteenth pack. Pack Opener really serving a nicest pack of the day.
<span style="font-weight:400">Meklord Factory is good for Meklords, as it helps in summoning the Emperors.
<span style="font-weight:400">Meklord Army of Skiel is the best Meklord Army monster. Battle recruiters might be a bit slow for the time, but they are still usable.
<span style="font-weight:400">Psi-Beast banishes a Psychic from the deck and takes on its level, which is decent.
<span style="font-weight:400">And Shien''s Dojo might be a bit slow, but it is still a great card.
<span style="font-weight:400">So yeah. Not a bad opening. Got some Meklords, some T.G. stuff, Psychic monsters.
