Obligatory Tournament Pack normal monster. This one looks… okay? I’m curious if “Dune Defense Force” will be something that will be expanded upon? probably not, I don’t think that any of the previous TP Normals got this kind of treatment.
Still, Space Omajinai Usagi is my favorite one.
Pain, pain go away~
They’ll very likely going to expand the “Dune Defense Force” lore in the future.
Reminds me of how S-Force was alluded to in PSY-Frame flavor text before becoming a ln actual archetype.
someday Wind Effigy someday
Simorgh, Bird of Ancestry is a thing
No thanks, he can only larp as a vanilla.
he’s got vassal stats too that’s so funny
Psychic Emperor turbo is a go, unfortunately the monetization of stat lines is also a go.
One of my favorite fusion monsters!
I also hope this other normal monster gets a archetype one day even if the chances are slim
Is that normal monster a hedgehog or a weasel but with electric back ??
It’s name is Stinger. While Hedgehogs don’t have these, they have other pointy hurt things. Also that face is very headgehog-like.
It’s a white hedgehog with green quills. Very “my Sonic OC fanart” coded.
So…
Goes with the recent Monarch support being 800/1000
Is a Psychic monster and a level 3 tuner so Emergency Teleport
Is a normal monster so Primite cards can do fun stuff with it too
Card has potential. That’s for sure.
I dunno about the first. I doubt Monarch would dip into Normal Monsters; maybe if they ran Time Tearing Morganite or Unexpected Dai, but otherwise I’d think if a Monarch Deck has Vassals they’ll run those, especially since one that have useful effects for the gameplan.
I do think it could have a place in Materiactor Decks. E-Tele gets it on board without using Unexpected Dai, and it’s a WIND Tuner, meaning it could be good for Lv. 6 Synchros or maybe a Speedroid Synchro (too bad it can’t make Kitedrake).
I wonder if any Materiactor Decks run Cloudcastle. Their XYZs are unaffected by the summoning sickness, after all.
And it might be the part of me who thinks about Golden Nova Yugioh, but I bet he’d also clamor for this card to be part of the Albaz Lore, just like what he does with Mysterion the Dragon Crown.
Obviously printed for Monarch, Psychic, and Primite
Gives Monarchs a valid way to use Dai or ETele
ED monarchs sometimes ran E-Tele already to summon Blue Layer and search of recycle Red Layer
primite support inc
When is Primite support going to result in actual Gem Dragon themed support finally? We gonna get Ruby Dragon, Diamondhead Dragon and Adamantine Sword Revival anime cards?
O rosto do novo monstro é muito feio, porque eles não podem ter bom senso e notar isso? Era melhor um cara de máscara , que desgosto.
Nada a ve mano, olha direito
I don’t speak portuguese, além disso, então você é mais um infiltrado? Albert
Every time I look at OCG making more new Normal Monsters, I always have to ask, “When are we going to get this printed in the TCG?!?!?”
Wait a second… he is named tAIDEN and his sword is only meant to be wield for defense?… THIS IS A METAL GEAR RISING REFERENCE!!! Konami you son of a b1tch
