Baobaboon-MACR-JP-C.png


 


Plant/Effect


If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can draw 1 card, then place 1 card from your hand on either the top or bottom of your Deck. If this card is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can Special Summon any number of "Baobaboon" from your Deck.

So this is coming out in the Raging Tempest Special Edition next week alongside Zoodiac Kataroost (Cuckle), discuss?

It's a Plant too iirc. Metalfoes Zoodiac Plant anyone?

I think True Kings could do the popping job better. Field Spell destroys this in the hand so you don't have to use the Normal Summon, plus it opens up VFD, which is broken

This is a huge game changer for the TCG for getting this a bit early. Pretty much evidences a deeper grave for Terrortop to be dug in. Obviously a great and bonkers card for Metalfoes and soon-to-come True Dracos. Metalfoes are losing slight traction so far but with this, Metal Zoo variants might be picked up even more, especially if the banlist doesn't come before Baobaboon's arrival. At that point Metal Zoos might inherently beat over Infernoids since they might as well run a cluster funk of tech cards now including 2 of these.

why only 2? surely you want 3 for the xyz plays

Honestly has potential but it sucks without support so currently is inferior to Terrortop or even the Predaplant engine. Barrage can pop it but why run a card that's only good when you draw Barrage, which means you have access to Rat anyway and don't need to make Invoker? I don't really know a lot about Metalfoes but apparently it can be quite good in there since all the Pendulum effects can pop it and can advance your plays but Metalfoes are irrelevant now anyway. Also apparently True Kings can run it but I literally know nothing about that deck other than it tops in OCG a bit.

Though true kings can set it off more efficiently, that doesn't discount its power with metalfoe. It is important to keep in mind that metalfoes are one (if not the only) modern archetype that isn't really reliant on its normal summon, so it can use it on this just fine.

 

Another thing to note is that, well, true kings aren't a thing in tcg yet. Since this is being released early, there will be a time with it in the game without the true kings, and it sure as hell is usable without them.

Well, it's just another way to abuse Invoker no more no less. Terrortop is very likely to get hit so Baobaboon as replacement seems fine. We don't have the Predaplant engine either and like Baobaboon they both serve different niches for the same goal.

Out of curiosity, could Fire Kings benefit from this?

I'm thinking any deck that could proc this on its own could benefit from it. For FKs in particular: Baobaboon into Breaksword (lets you destroy/trigger more of your own stuff) and Baobaboon into Invoker (so you can do Zoodiac plays and search out your Beast-Warrior FKs) seem like the obvious plays.
