"I chose to Special Summon "Entertainment Partner Telephone Longhorn" in defense position. "
The balloon exploded, and a minotaur wearing a formal dress with an old-fashioned telephone receiver on its head fell onto the jock field. The other balloons slowly floated up into the air and gradually disappeared at the focal point, fading out of people's sight.
As soon as he landed, NTR took off the receiver from his head and made a call. In the background, a chestnut ball wearing a cute striped pajamas and nightcap jumped on Jock's shoulders.
""Entertainment Partner·Telephone Longhorn" activates its effect when the special summon is successful, adding an "Entertainment Partner" monster other than the Pendulum Monster from the deck to the hand. I chose "Entertainment Partner·Horizongo Kuroni Ball" ”. "
——Offsite
"Coolie coolie!" "Partner, what's wrong with you?"
Yujo Judai frowned as he looked at the excited look on the winged Kurikou who suddenly appeared from the deck.
Since the last dark game with the Dark Duelist Titan, he has approached Jock many times, wanting to talk to him about the elves and the dark game, but without exception, he has been excused with various excuses every time... Forget it. Well, the person with the chestnut ball shouldn’t be a bad person, right?
Speaking of which, I really want to play cards with Qiaoqiao more and more!
——On the field, a round of endless goals
Unlike Yujo Judai, Wan Zhangmu was confused by a word he had never heard before: "Pendulum monster?"
Jock nodded and showed Wan Zhangmu the "Entertainment Partner Carrot Horse" in his hand.
It was a weird yellow and green monster card. In addition to the normal monster effect text, there was a description of the magic effect at the bottom of the card. In addition, there was a pair of small numbers "3" on both sides.
"Pendulum monsters are special monster cards that have some properties of magic cards." He explained to Wan Zhangmu and everyone present, "They can be summoned in the monster area, use monster effects, and can also be used as magic cards. Set up pendulum scales on both sides of the magic trap area and use pendulum card effects."
Pendulum monsters can be used in two ways: monster cards and magic cards. They are a very convenient new type of monster, but this convenience also brings many negative costs as a balance.
The first is the cost in the rules. Pendulum monsters on the field cannot be used as the cost of "sending to the graveyard". In some cases, it will cause great inconvenience, and the use of many cards will be disrupted from the source.
The second is the cost of response. The Pendulum Monster is "activated" when set as a magic card, which will induce a series of corresponding chains and will also be severely interfered by the magic blockade tactic.
The third is the cost of card difference. Pendulum card stickers will steadily lose 2 cards. If you can't earn it back, it will be a pure loss. At the same time, the way of using the pendulum is destined to be difficult to activate with 1 card - no matter how many extra cards you have, you will end up empty-handed. In such a disadvantageous situation, basically nothing the God draws can save you.
4 is the cost of construction. Pendulum bonus p loses 2. If you want to earn it back, you need to use pendulum summons as much as possible, so the deck composition will inevitably tend to increase the concentration of pendulum monsters or related cards. Otherwise, refer to 3.
In fact, in reality, Pendulum Cards have the restriction that Pendulum Summons from the Extra Deck must be summoned in the EX Zone or the Connection Zone.
But Jock's era has not yet been updated to this rule, so this disadvantage does not exist for him (for the time being).
Of course, Jock would not be so kind as to tell his opponent all this, let others analyze it slowly!
"In other words, is the Pendulum Monster a special type similar to the Allied Monster? Why is it not written in the formula book and I have never heard of it? But the duel disk does not report an error, does it mean there is nothing wrong with the Pendulum card..."
"Huh, what a shameless card type! In the main phase 2, except XYZ, special summon "XYZ·Dragon Cannon" from the extra deck, and the turn ends with 1 card. "
Ten thousand feet: 8000, 0
"Isn't it too much to deny it without knowing anything about it?" Jock laughed, "These pendulum monsters are not as powerful, easy to use, and simple and brainless as you think."
"My turn, card drawing phase, card drawing phase, preparation phase, main phase."
Jock: 8000, 4
Jock showed his hand to Wan Zhangmu. Among the four cards in his hand, except for one magic card, the other three were undoubtedly the strips retrieved by Carrot Horse*2 and Telephone Longhorn that were returned to the hand through temporary cancellation. Chestnut balls.
"Activate the magic card "Entertainment Partner Lineup Change" from your hand, return any number of "Entertainment Partner" monsters in your hand to the deck, shuffle them, and then draw the number of monsters returned to the deck + 1 card, which is 4 cards. "
"In attack position, I summon "Entertainment Partner·Questing Hippopotamus". In the round when the questing hippopotamus is successfully summoned, I can up-summon a monster with a level of 7 or above. I will search for the magician summoned by the superiors to free the hippopotamus and minotaurs, and bring smiles to their faces through duels - "Entertainment Partner Smile Magician"! "
"Smiling Magician?" Wan Zhangmu noticed the keyword, "Is this card also related to the Pendulum Card?"
Jock shook his head: "Not necessarily, this card will block my Pendulum Summoning. When "Entertainment Partner Smiling Magician" is summoned successfully, the effect will be activated. Add "Smiling Universe" from the deck to your hand. Card.
When I only have "Entertainment Partner", "Odd Eyes", and "Magician" monsters on the field, and this card's attack power is higher than it originally was, activate the ② effect of Smiling Magician and draw it from my deck. The number of monsters with higher attack power than before! "
Jock's venue is the "Entertainment Partner Theater", which can increase the attack power of monsters on his field by the number of species * 200.
In other words - he can draw 3!
"Oh, by the way, I will activate another "Pot of Desire". "
"Of course, such a powerful effect will naturally have side effects. I can't special summon you during the round when this effect is used." Jock chuckled after drawing the card, "But I don't need a special summon to defeat you."
Holding 7 cards in your hand, you have enough confidence to speak.
"Next, I will show you the effects of Pendulum Monsters when used as Pendulum Cards!
Set the pendulum scale with "Entertainment Partner·Partner Snake" and "Entertainment Partner·Silver Claw Wolf"! "
Jock took out two cards from his hand and slapped them on the left and right sides of the magic trap area.
The spotlight illuminated two beams of red and blue light behind him, a rattlesnake with red and yellow colors, a magician's hat on its head, gloves on its tail, a birthmark of the Joestar family on its left eye, and bright silver claws that looked unruly. The silhouette of the silver wolf emerged within the light pillar.
At the same time, two numbers "3" and "5" appeared in the light pillar.
"When "Entertainment Partner Silver Claw Wolf" is set with a pendulum scale, it will provide 300 attack points to all our "Entertainment Partner" monsters.
If "Entertainment Partner·Partner Snake" has a pendulum scale set, its pendulum effect can be activated once per turn. If the effect is activated on "Entertainment Partner·Carrot Horse", the attack power of that monster will increase until the end of the turn. I field it. Number of "Entertainment Partner" cards * 300 points! "
