    Mai in Duel Links, a very early character from a time characters barely had any lines, having lines for Lightning Chidori, a random Xyz with no direct relation to Harpie, is a testament of how good the card is.

      There was a video similar to the first topic about tournament prize cards, which could lead to decks costing up to 5k. Basically Crush Card Virus and The Gold Sarcophagus were exclusively available as tournament prize cards, but they also were the best cards at that time and the only players who had a realistic chance at winning a tournament (and obtaining one of those two cards) were players who already had both of these cards in their deck. This lead to both of those cards jumping to 2k, because they were basically the entrance requirement for tournaments, and players would buy both cards for that absurd sum in the hope to win tournaments and then sell the additional copies they got from it.

    Castel is actually part of an archetype. It is part of the Skyblaster archetype which includes Phantom Skyblaster (which is also the only support card), Skyblaster Token (the token summoned by Phantom Skyblaster), and Clavkiys, the Magikey Skyblaster. Castel and Clavkiys are not intended to work with Phantom Skyblaster (although all member are either Level 4 or Rank 4) but its Japanese name of "Jushi" meaning "Musketeer" happens to be a common word so they are included because they coincidentally use it in their Japanese names.

    Castel is part of the Skyblaster Series of cards that consists of 3 cards: Castel the Musketeer, Clavkiys the Magikey and Phantom.
    With only Phantom having an effect that interacts with Skyblasters. It can on a soft once per turn deal 300 damage per Skyblaster on the field during the controllers Standby Phase but Skyblaster monsters can't use their effects that turn.
    So if you control 3 Phantoms, 2 other main-zone Skyblasters (Clavkiys or Tokens) and 1 Castel, you can deal 1800×3 = 5400 damage in the Standby Phase alone. But good luck with that LOL

    • @Shugunou
      @Shugunou Před rokem +2

      Even though the cards don't really have that much synergy together, I think they had some intent to make it functional since all the main deck ones are Level 4 and you can make Castel with 2 Level 4 monsters. This means that you can technically use the two main deck Skyblasters to summon the 1 Extra Deck Skyblaster even though they don't have any cards to help with that since the tokens Phantom Skyblaster summons can't be used as Xyz Material.

    Abyss Dweller can be pretty annoying to deal with, but honestly if it just didn't have that minor attack boost, I think the card would be absolutely fine. It's the fact that some decks, like Tearlament, were able to make it with that attack boost, thereby preventing most normal summons from beating it over, that really makes it annoying to deal with, since it'd stick around for multiple turns in the mirror, preventing any "no, our turn" shenanigans and making it a blowout.

      @@mtult1454 That require exactly 3 materials though. Curious would be at the top of that list considering it's banned even though it does require 3 materials, isn't generic so not every Deck can use it and 2400 ATK isn't great considering it needs 3 materials. It had a somewhat degenerate play with Knightmare Gryphon and back-row floodgates where you'd dump your floodgate of choice with Curious and then Link climb into Gryphon and set the card from your graveyard while leaving you with Gryphon's own soft floodgate but being able to dump anything from your Deck is a strong effect for its own merits. BLS - Soldier of Chaos is more generic but its effects (one of which can make it a pain to deal with and another that makes running it over in battle as a way to out it a lot harder) and 3k ATK justify its material requirement.

      I propose this change so it isn't instantly destroyed by any non destructive removal. The combat immunity is because level 4 monsters don't have a very high attack, so it isn't likely to hit over much. All in all, this card is pretty bad. Its a win condition (completely immune to everything except piercing damage and kaijus) but highly interruptable. While this card would not see play (it's a worse Expurrely Noir) it would probably have some decks that are dedicated to it (turbo mill strategies perhaps).

      This card would be banned ASAP in both the TCG and OCG for several reasons. Being able to basically act as a Super Poly Xyz Monster that also can use the GY is already really good but then also being able to just take any card from your Deck or GY and be able to do so for free if it is Level 4 or below or a Spell/Trap is ridiculous. On top of it just being able to recycle cards as materials so it never runs out and can potentially use all 3 of its effects in one turn is just broken by itself. Everything about this card is broken and I doubt anything like that will even be printed any time soon.

      Well there ARE some caveats to your summary:
      ⚪️You can only use the alternative summoning condition using 4 monster/spell/trap cards each from YOUR hand, field or GY (so no devouring your opponent’s hand/field/GY)
      ⚪️The Detach effect to absorb cards that would be banished or sent to the GY only works for 1 kind of card at a time, and is more to throw a monkey wrench in the plans of banish or GY heavy decks.
      ⚪️The free card set only applies if THIS card achieve some level of battle destruction or damage against your opponent (and still be standing, which might be an issue unless this card can absorb a material with a beefy ATK or DEF), and even then you have to (normal if a monster) _SET_ a relevant card (which slows the card down already), and even then those targets can only be non-effect monsters (so normals, Gemini or a few extra deck or ritual ones) and normal spells/traps…
      ⚪️…And the above is only possible so long as I devote a whopping 4 of the same card type as materials to it for the effects and protections I desire. The alternative summoning condition and detach effect can help accumulate those resources, but it’s still a hefty investment nonetheless.
      ⚪️So I’d say this card as first written is _on the cusp_ of being as powerful as you say it is, but you’d have to read the fine print and revolve your deck around the damn thing. It’s like generic yet not generic at the same time.

      4 level 4 monsters
      _(Quick Effect) You can also Xyz summon this card by using 4 Monster, Spell and Trap cards each from your hand, field or GY as materials. This card’s original ATK and DEF become equal to the highest ATK or DEF of any of it’s attached materials (Your choice of tied.) Once per turn, during the draw phase (Quick Effect): You can detach 1 material from this card; any cards of that detached material’s type (Monster/Spell/Trap) that would be Banished or sent to the GY are attached to this card instead until the next draw phase. This card gains the following effects depending on the types of materials attached to it:_
      4+ Monsters: If a Monster you control destroys a monster by battle or inflicts battle damage: Either attach to this card or Normal Set 1 non-effect monster from your hand, deck or GY. Cannot be destroyed by battle, and unaffected by monster effects.
      4+ Spells: If a monster you control destroys a monster by battle or inflicts battle damage: Either attach to this card or Set 1 normal spell from your hand, deck or GY. Unaffected by spell cards or effects.

      @@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire Even only using your own cards, if you send a Spell in a Spell Deck like Sky Striker, this thing will get to like 20 materials because it doesn't specify they have to go to your opponent's GY. For monsters, most decks send a ton of monsters to the GY to go into Synchro, Fusion, or Link plays or to use effects. Either way, this card gains a ton of materials. And since this card gains the stats of monsters absorbed, in most decks, it will easily get to 20k+ ATK. Not only that, but the detach effect is a Quick Effect so it even works for Trap Decks. Every deck will play this card at 3 except for Monarchs. The Summon effect is also still broken because it can use cards from anywhere of any type and because of the way it is worded, the monsters used don't have to be Level 4 so even decks that don't play Level 4 monsters, Spells, or Traps can still make it. And the fact it needs to battle isn't enough to balance it considering how powerful Zeus is and that every Xyz Deck uses it despite it requiring you to battle and not being able to attack the turn it is Summoned since it must be Summoned in the Main Phase 2.

    Given they have an effect line that is identical to the Shaddolls, Tearlaments also work well out of the hand and can achieve greater feats by doing so. Feats such as summoning three Fusion monsters off of a single fusion spell, as that fusion spell counts as the Tearlaments monsters having been sent to the gy by a card effect, so will trigger their in gy fusion summoning effects. They can also achieve this kind of feat through the draw power card hand destruction which adds a unique flavour to drawing more cards. You could set up a board containing (depending on what you run among your Tearlaments) a copy of Tearlaments Kitkallos, a copy of El Shaddoll winda and a copy of Starving venom fusion dragon. This creating a powerful nuisance combination of fusion monsters that will leave the opponent scratching their head about what their next move is as they'll have limited special summons and risk losing powerful monsters if Starving venom is destroyed and also if they do anything to Kitkallos she will most likely be evolved into Rulkallos, becoming even more annoying by doing so.

    I can understand Castel not counting for an archetype since "Musketeer" is only an archetype by technicality. Bahamut Shark on the other hand is absolutely part of the "Shark" archetype, and the only reason there's no explicit "Shark" support is because it all of the anime/manga support that was printed in the O/TCG is either generic support or "Level 3, 4, or 5 Fish-type monster" support.

    • @TwoToneShoes

      Shark is not actually an archetype. In the same way that "Dragon" is not an archetype but has a lot of cards that incidentally support it. The fact that they have to specify "level 3, 4, and 5" fish monsters, many of which are not sharks but still support the overall fish monster typing, is exactly the point. There isn't a shark effect that Bahamut Shark even interacts with explicitly because Shark is not an archetype, as it has a rank and not levels so it even misses out on some of its own creature type's support. It's like Chaos or Dragons or Plants -- a known deck type, but very specifically not an archetype.
