Forum:Scrap Orthros - Heck Yes!

Scrap decks have a new card to play with - Scrap Orthros - and I for one could not be more THRILLED! Here I thought that we'd need to wait until Storm of Ragnarok, but clearly not.

So, why am I thrilled?


 * While you control a Scrap monster, it trades itself for any monster in your graveyard. Seriously! Special summon it, destroy it with its own effect, and add a monster.
 * Not nomi. Oh yes - it can't be normal summoned or set, but by the current translation there's nothing about being unable to special summon it except by its own effect. So, it's another level 4 tuner to be summoned by Chimera for Scrap Dragon, or by Golem for Scrap TWIN Dragon!
 * More good-ol self-destruction. Meaning more synergy with Scrap Searcher and Scrap tuners' effects, but also with more eccentric picks such as Machine Emperors and even (since it's a Beast) Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest! Very exciting.
 * Did I mention that it's a Beast? That makes 3 in the archetype! You can now start using cards like the aforementioned Green Baboon, but also Moja (maybe), Super Rush Recklessly, and... well, whatever you choose!
 * Decent ATK. Trade that weak ol' Scrap Searcher for this stronger card!

With this and the MUCH-anticipated Scrap Mind Reader, Scrap decks are on a meteoric rise to the top! (Shame you can't use both in the same format, though...) So what are YOUR opinions on this card? Runer5h (talk • contribs) 02:08, October 13, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h
