Oh these are pretty good actually. Another way to fuse is always welcome and it can even gets itself back. The fusion also solves the inherent problem of the illusion monsters by just allowing us to attack directly along with having a reliable in archetype way of stealing monsters on the field. The trap is also a nice interruption though the send cost is rather annoying
They turned the really cool “Hecatoncheir” into “Hecahands”🤢
@World of Pain: They turned something they can’t realistically copyright into something they can. Complain all you want, but at least understand the reasoning for not just directly using the name of a mythological creature.
Besides the main deck monster it is clear that they hate this deck. The fusion is so underwhelming and the trap pops itself if you cannot send anything else. The archetype had clear holes to fill like a reliable starter, stronger endboard piece and a bridge from it to chimera that does not feel awful but it is clear konami did not want to commit to it.
I hope upcoming killer tune supportwere all as mid as hecahands
While these aren’t the greatest support cards ever, they’re alright. But yeah, Killer Tune already is good enough and it definitely feels like they’re the favorite child so far in Phantom revengers. I agree that their support should be even more mid than this. They’re close to good enough for meta already.
gotta catch these hands fam
support is okayish but doesn’t fix the biggest issues of the archetype but we’ll see what comes next
Stellar artwork, makes me want to play hecahands
Also, these are fine. Could have been Better but they aren’t bad at all.
I want good enneacraft support
The only explanation for these waves of such soft support cards is that the idea is to give the archetype a final touch with a searcher that allows access to any card that includes the effect of stealing monsters from the opponent
Or they’re simply testing the waters
So the monster fusion does solve some issues. It’s not a one card combo but it does help with bricky hands fusing straight into the searcher. It’s also level 6 so it’s easier to get pilgrim reaper and zombie vampire on the field for the 9 card drop. With most cards having gy effects. And not putting any locks you could potentially make some nasty boards. But luck 🍀 is still necessary.
The Main Deck monster is really good. The Fusion is situational. The Trap is bad,
Kinda disappointing. The main deck is good. The Fusion is eh. The trap is weird. Why do you have to send a card for the trap? Yeah, it triggers your Light Hecahands, but so what? You already tributed a monster to use it, now you have to send something else? Why? Why am I negging myself for a snatch steal?
It can send itself
