Mushibami no Rinpun / Corrosive Scales
Trap Normal
(1) Target 1 Insect monster you control; equip this card to that target. Your opponent cannot attack Insect monsters, except for the equipped monster you control.
(2) Each time your opponent Normal/Special Summons a monster, or activates a card or effect, place 1 Scale Counter on each face-up monster your opponent controls. Monsters your opponent controls lose 100 ATK/DEF for each Scale Counter it has.

Oh man, this scene. I loved that scene in the show.

 

As for this card though... It doesn't seem all that good. Gives an equip to help with the other support and that secondary effect seems pretty cool (combo with Ragnazero somehow?), but not practical.

Based on the card you would more so save this when you get one of your big Insects out like Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth so your opponent won't be able to run over your monster or target other Insects while this makes it more easier to run over theirs while dealing more heavier damage. Specially if you got a Insect with a piercing effect as your opponent will most likely set monsters to defence while this is up.

well, multiples of these out, walls your opponent, and the 2nd effect stacks heavily. 2 of these out is dropping 2 scales on everything they have per summon for a total of -400 ATK/DEF. the effect is minimal in singles, but it has a lot of potential for BP tricks. overall, it's nothing really meta breaking, but it's also at least worth of the title "Better than generic pack filler" since it actually falls into a respectable niche of unique cards that aren't completely useless. potentially dropping all monsters on the field by up to 900 per summon/effect activation could be damn scary moth. and there's no guarantee, but i wouldn't put it past konami to make something that works insanely well with this in a future pack(s).

Not sure a Trap that lowers attack by 100's at a time is viable or good in 2017

well, it's not top tier viable, and calling it good implies i have something planned with it, but as far as insect battle support goes, i'd this is decent enough stuff, assuming we ever manage to get anything else remotely decent for insect swarming, that is.

I just mean relative to the other stuff in this set. Cocoon and the new Insect Queen are actually pretty legit

 

This is really a far cry from either of those in my opinion. Maybe if it was a spell and 1K drops
