[MANGA] Reawakening of the Monarch


Recommended Posts

Reawakening of the Monarch

Normal Trap

Activate the effects of all Tribute Summoned Level 5 or higher "Monarch" monsters you control that activate when they are Tribute Summoned.

 

(Card text has been edited for clarity)

 

Setting aside the fact that all Monarchs are Level 6 or higher (the Level 4 and lowers are Vassals), and that you wouldn't be able to Tribute Summon them if there were, this is pretty memey. Do you have a Mobius on board? This becomes Twin Twister without a cost. Caius? Free banish. Raiza? Spin something to the top of the Deck. The best part, though, is that they ALL trigger again, which can wreak some special havoc if you run several of the removal ones. This might even make Thestalos a little better, because sniping a card and burning is pretty sweet as a Trap.

 

I'm honestly wondering what you'd run this card at, if at all. Its gimmick is definitely fun, but it has a very big chance of being a brick in an already very bricky Deck.

 

Thoughts?

Yup, MS, it triggers them all. Of course, they need to be on the field, and already Tribute Summoned, but it sets them all off.

 

So, hypothetically, if you did some kind of Brilliant Fusion combo and got to Tribute Summon both Caius and Thestalos in the same turn, you can banish 1 monster on the field and force your opponent to discard 1 card.

Return of the Monarchs being hard OPT and asking you to already be able to get the ball rolling to become live, and Ether being limited... 

^Those from what I gather are the only ways Monarchs are searched out. The support to aid their Summon is so good that with no opposition you could probably find a way to Tribute 6 monsters, but the very bosses that want to get Summoned keep you dancing between clogging with how many you'll have to run, or potentially not drawing into them.

 

Monarchs will stay iffy until they find a way to go around that....

Once that happens, this Trap would be really amazing. The Underworld Monarch gives you 1/3th of Trishula's effect (the third part of your choice). They definitely have incentives.

Is there a way to reliably Special Summon Witch of the Black Forest without burning a Normal Summon through Summoner Monk? It can technically search them out and is now at 3... Hmmm....
