Seriously though. It would make sense for them to give any F.A. links a way to make up for the lack of level. Good thing that negation is once per turn.

Huh, I thought this card was crazy good before noticing the hard OPT on the 4th effext. I already was pondering if it would be possible to enginize F.A.Spell/Traps in Machine decks to enable this and negate monster effects multiple times, forcing the opponent to skip the MP1 and battle this before using any monster effects.

I thought the same originally, about the negation. But it makes sense because I guess Konami is finally learning non OPT effects are terrible design. Oh well.

 

I don't play FA so forgive my ignorance but is there a way to make this live with a decent amount of attack while also making a decent board? Because I haven't seen much FA play since the AFD ban.

machine dupe can do it immediately. auto navigator is about the only one that makes it easy really. you can do it without auto navigator, but auto makes it easier. doing so and still ending on a board though... probably not.
