Today’s Featured Card – ABYR&CBLZ Edition
Gagaga Cowboy
(Warrior-Type ATK 1500/DEF 2400)
[Included in Abyss Rising]
2 Level 4 monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; apply this effect, depending on this card’s current battle position.
● Attack Position: If this card attacks an opponent’s monster this turn, it gains 1000 ATK, also the opponent’s monster loses 500 ATK, during the Damage Step only.
● Defense Position: Inflict 800 damage to your opponent.
1. Points of Use of its Attack Position Effect
Using its Attack Position effect, you can effectively destroy any monster with up to 3000 ATK! As long as you activate it in the Main Phase, this effect applies without targetting the opponent’s monster. It’s quite useful against monsters you can’t take down with “Number 101: Silent Honors ARK”, “Castel, the Skyblaster Musketeer”, such as monsters that can’t be targeted, and it has a different kind of appeal than “Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon”.
[A-1]. “Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon” looms before you, incapable of being targeted and incapable of being destroyed by card effect, you can perform a Rank 4 Xyz thanks to Goblindbergh, but you have no hand… …
[A-2]. You can’t target with “Number 101: Silent Honors ARK” or “Castel, the Skyblaster Musketeer”, and even if you use “Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon”, you can’t make use of its effect. So you should Xyz Summon “Gagaga Cowboy”!
[A-3]. As long as you activate Cowboy’s effect in Main Phase 1, you defeat any monster during the Battle Phase that has 3000 ATK! (※So you can destroy “Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon” since this an effect that doesn’t target!!)
[B-1]. Also, thanks to moves you can make “Gagaga Mancer”, who can Special Summon “Gagaga” monsters from the Graveyard, you can slay a monster up to 3500 ATK!
[B-2]. By Special Summoning from the Graveyard, “Gagaga Mancer” sets up for the Xyz Summon of the Rank 4 “Gagaga Cowboy”!
[B-3]. To fight against the 2 Dragons that can’t be targeted by effects, Xyz Summon “Gagaga Cowboy”!
[B-4]. By detaching “Gagaga Mancer” when you active the effect of “Gagaga Cowboy”, “Gagaga Mancer” has its effect activate that raises the ATK of “Gagaga Cowboy” by 500!
[B-5]. When it attacks “Blue-Eyes White Dragon”, sit can destroy it in battle since Gagaga Cowboy has its ATK raised to 3000 and the ATK of “Blue-Eyes White Dragon” becomes 2500!
2. Points of Use of its Defense Position Effect
If your opponent’s Life Points are 800 or less, this card’s Defense Position effect can decide the game then and there! Also, since it’s got 2400 DEF, you can inflict damage to the opponent, while setting up for later.
It’s really appealing having different effects in different Positions!
This is a chance for you to get your hands on a card used by the best players at the Worlds Championship!
