D'Sceptyr's Daily 2 {SQ Mech Beast Neoglide and Sworn to Prevail}

[Black D'Sceptyr]

Welcome back to D'Sceptyr's Daily 2, where the cards are awesome and the artwork in the center of 'em don't matter! (Cause they're not mine. Savvy?)

 

I kid though- without 'em, though, I'd be a total loss, much like a TempurPedic in a desert.

 

[spoiler=Super Quantal Mech Beast Neoglide]

 

LIGHT/Machine-Type Xyz Effect/Rank 1/200 ATK/2200 DEF

Lore: 2 Level 1 monsters
Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then reveal 1 monster in your hand; take, from your Deck or Graveyard, 1 monster with the same name as that card, and/or 1 "Super Quant" monster with the same Level as that revealed monster, and either Special Summon them or attach them to this card as Xyz Materials. When this card with 4 or more monsters with different names attached to it as Xyz Materials is destroyed: Special Summon 1 "Super Quantal Mech King Great Magnus" from your Extra Deck, and if you do, attach all "Super Quantal" Xyz Monsters in your Graveyard to it as Xyz Materials.

 

 

 

[spoiler=Sworn to Prevail (Refixed)]

 

Normal Spell Card

 

Lore: Destroy 1 monster you control and pay 1000 LP, then banish 2 LIGHT monsters from your Graveyard whose total Levels equal 5, 7, or 9, including 1 (and only 1) Tuner monster; Special Summon 1 LIGHT Synchro Monster from your Extra Deck with a Level equal to the Levels of those banished monsters and that shares the original Type of 1 of those banished monsters. (This Special Summon is treated as a Synchro Summon.) When this card is sent from your Deck to the Graveyard: You can shuffle 2 LIGHT monsters from your hand and/or face-up on your field into the Deck; Set this card to your field. You can only use each effect of "Sworn to Prevail" once per turn.

 

 

 

Soooo exhausted. And why AM I handing Lightsworns more support?! Oh wait. I started out with handing VYLONS more support and Lumina's wary eyes distracted me. Curse you Lumina. Curse you and your once-per-turn-but-not-actually-just-once-per-turn-spamming, scarf-as-a-top-having, Bottomless-Trap-Hole-dodging awesomeness.

 

Comment, critique, you know the drill, let's get to spelunking.

 

BDS, signing off.

In terms of Neoglide being used in Super Quantum, aside from maybe Alphan + Kinka-byo or something, they don't have a way of making it. If this was intended to work with Alphan, a note that it is a "Quantal" monster itself and can't be summoned using Magnacarrier. Although it is helpful in either re-summoning the Rangers to trigger stuff, or get them ready to make Magnus if you can equip them fast enough, so there's also that. Though, it is an additional member that Magnacarrier can build off of, so you don't need the original 3 to work. (I have to admit that they really need the other colors to be released as members)

 

As for the other card, I don't know if LS can really use it properly or want to, otherwise. Looking at the list of viable stuff, they have some options but rely HEAVILY on Minerva a lot of the time (for their 7 plays, and even 9s with the Blue-Eyes Synchros, assuming you can keep Gragonith around). In the end, likely not a good card for them. In terms of Vylons, it's fine (despite them not being relevant at this time); not sure how much of a boost they need for their own plays, but suppose it gives them a way to make their stuff (barring Epsilon/Omega). PSY-Frame only have Zeta as a passable target for now.

Yeah, Neoglide's a bit unwieldy, but the Quantum Deck that runs 3 of em will likely adjust for it. Emergency Teleport's still around and there are good Level 1 Psychic to go with the deck's synergy (see Re-Cover, a way-too-underused card for a Deck that pumps out Xyzs like hotcakes.) Originally, I had this running as only support for Quantum Beasts, but the main point of this card is allowing them to be able to swarm. Most people divest all their resources into pumping out Mech King Magnus and see it all go to snuff when the next Kaiju or Lightning rolls around (and the former's infecting Monarchs like NOBODY's business). Neoglide gives them a plan B. And yeah, they do need the other members out-I'll release custom variants of mine if they won't.

 

As for Sworn to Prevail's drawback-you're absolutely right on. Originally the mill-to-activate effect wasn't in there, but I couldn't find a way to properly word this in a way that benefited Lightsworns/Vylons without also benefiting a lot more insatiably meta archetypes that'd break this over their knee. Specifically, Lord Omega and Angel of Zera. Because Zera fuels future Sworn to Prevail plays, and Omega's...got-damned Omega.

 

I'll see if I can change up S2P immediately. And thank you for the criticism. Keep on it.

 

 

Right, fixed up Sworn to Prevail-at least it has some usability with Lightsworns by shuffling away Wulfs and that other mill-to-summon Lightsworn I cant remember Felis Navidad (okay that was a terrible pun. Forgive me.)

 

*And gave Neoglide a better picture. I mean, at least it resembles the fairy Alphan in mythical nature now. Last was just too close to Magnaliger.
