Samurai XYZ Effec Revealed

Offial, no troll. I took the info from ARG and from judge Cordero's channel ( the same who wrote it on ARG )



Shadow of the Six Samurai - Shien
Warrior-Type/EARTH/Rank 4/ATK 2500/DEF 400/Xyz
2 Level 4 "Six Samurai" monsters
Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target 1 face-up "Six Samurai" monster you control with less than X000 ATK; its original ATK becomes X000 until the End Phase.

they puted X cuz tis still hard to read, we expect it to be 3000 atk

comments ?

At first I though it wud be an effect stopper, but the effect is good too, seeing as most sams have a problem with early beaters(first turn shi en can only do so much especially with chaos dragons all over the place). Quick effect means that u can kill em without making it that obvious, not to mention it can be used during the damage step. All around good card.

Nothing groundbreaking but certainy not crap. Just like it should be, especially in a deck that has so many broken cards already

He also adds counters on Gateway/Dojo because he's a Samurai and also keeps those Magatamas live.
Rank 4 is better than Rank 3 because you usually use your Level 3 for Synchro Summons( unless you draw multiples and have no choice)

Makes use of the extra Kizans. Also makes extra space and drops counters for Dojo, Gateway, and United. Helps the beater issue and works during either player's turn. Pretty decent, they needed this.

I'm honestly happy he's not broken. He's a perfectly balanced card, and exactly what the archetype needed to boost early game performance against decks with harder hitters.

Good job, Konami. You're doing it alright.

I thought he was going to change the atk to 2500. It would make since because Shi En is 2500. Anyways It still is a good effect

They revealed the numbers its gotta be a six sam with 2000 or less atk and its atk becomes 3000.

ok sweet so no buffing shi en. But other than that almost all the six sams meet the requirements

Yeah which can be still be deadly bc i know there a six sam that can atk dirctly and anthoer one can atk twice and there under 2000 atk lol.

Yup This card gives sams a BLS(3000 double attacker). There is also one that destroys any card it battles :/

Yeah this xyz looks fun and deadly.

Looks like it only buffs to 2k instead of 3 :/ But it looks like kageki would still get his effect and thus become 3500 instead of 1700

I also noticed the change in text, as of now it's not even worth playing just to get a 2K monster when most of your monsters have over 2K already.

I agree. I was really hoping this card would allow sams to get over big beaters. But when Heroic Champion Excalibur comes out it should help, since it will be a 4k beater for your turn and opp's turn.

well kageki still gets his 1500 boost so he becomes 3500 and it is more spamming for gateway so i can see a few people running this. but ya its not that great at all. Deffinatly not worth all the hype that its been getting on youtube and such.

Even with Kageki having 3500 from it's effect, using it to go for shien is a better option, seeing as even with 2 beaters a simple spell/trap can take em out.

The samurai is better than I tought, he is a six samurai himself so he give counters on gateway, dojo and united wich makes the gateway loop easier to pull ou since you will use kizans as xyz materials and you can always get them back from your grave with gateway.
