Photon Chargeman [ANIME]


Recommended Posts

So, admittedly this card has yet to be played, but it was revealed in the preview so let's see what we can do...

LIGHT/Warrior/4/????/1000
Once per turn: You can double this card's ATK until your next Standby Phase. This card cannot attack during the turn you activate this effect.

I'll bet you anything this guy's ATK will be 1000-1200 at most. Could this be that one LV4 Photon that Galaxion needs to be playable? Discuss.

It'll for sure have 1000 or more, because it's blatantly for Galaxy-Eyes' Summon. The problem is, that's literally the only use it has. Photon Crusher is better than this already, because it has 2000 ATK by default, is also a Level 4 Photon Warrior, and its 0 DEF is good with Masked Chameleon if you were so inclined. So while this may be another Level 4 Photon...unless it gets a buff when released, it's still not as good as Crusher.

Kaito cards tend to be better in the OCG than the anime. Daybreaker, Galaxy-Eyes and Photon Slasher can't be Normal Summoned or set in the anime, Neo Galaxy-Eyes only negates monsters in the anime, and Giga-Brilliant only boosts itself in the anime. I could see it getting Boosted.

Not entirely true. Kaito has Normal Summoned Photon Thrasher (episode 42, the tag Duel against III and IV) while controlling a monster. In RL, you can't Normal Summon it. Daybreaker is uncertain, but he's only played it twice. Galaxy-Eyes is totally true, though.

 

But then you also get Kaito's cards like Reverse Buster, which can only attack facedown monsters and yet doesn't get +500 for killing monsters.

 

I hope it'd get some sort of buff because it's just so useless the way it is right now.

At this rate, Kaito draws Galaxy-Eyes in his opening hand an alarming number of times.

 

Episode 14: Drawn on his second turn by the effect of Number 10

Episode 22: Drawn on his second turn by Photon Sublimation. Duel ended this turn.

Episode 24: Drawn on his third turn.

Episode 42: Drawn on either his first or second turn.

Episode 56: Second turn.

Episode 63: First turn.

Dr. Faker Duel: First turn

Mizael Duel: First turn

Sargasso Duel with Mizael: SSed from Deck by Galaxion on his first turn

Number 46 Duel: First turn

This Duel: First turn.

 

He has never Summoned Galaxy-Eyes any later than his third turn, and that was once. He almost constantly Summons it on his first turn.

 

Summoning Galaxy-Eyes is all this card is good for at this point. Limit Reverse has no synergy with this card because other than Photon Circle and Photon Pirate, neither of which are good at all, Photon monsters have over 1000 ATK. It's a Level 4 Photon, but Crusher is sooo much better.
