Yugioh Card(s) of the Week 3/11/13

Now that you should have gotten the basics of Synchro Monsters this time we will be focusing on some tuners in this installment of the Yugioh Card of the week.  This week we will actually have two featured cards since they are very similar.  Today's card is both Flame and Dark Resonators.  Both cards were used by officer Trudge in Yugioh 5Ds.  However just because these cards were not used by any of the Signers doesn't mean that these cards have no value.  This is because both of their effects can benefit synchro decks greatly.  Flame Resonator will help the synchro monster you summoned by gaining 300 atk points while Dark Resonator will be able to protect itself from one attack to help you summon a synchro monster.  Their effects can be quite handy since they either allow you to summon easier or just give you the boost to beat your opponents.  If you aren't familiar with these cards I think they are a great staple in any synchro deck so if you haven't already check them out.

Yugioh Card of the Week: 1/21/13

After the long hiatus from the holidays and being busy in the last couple of weeks we will now go back to our usual schedule of the Yugioh Card of the Week. Before I begin Happy New Year everyone and I hope that this year will be a great year for dueling. Anyways for this week we will be covering a trap card that is used by almost everyone and has become one of the best staple cards in many players' decks due to the great effect it has.  Today's card is Scrap Iron Scarecrow.  It was introduced during the Yugioh 5Ds Era and is one of my favorites as well.  For those who aren't aware it has the ability to stop one of your opponents' attacks during the battle phase and the best part is that the card will remain on the field after you use it and it goes back face-down.  However this can also be an issue since your opponent will now know what you have on the field and can actually counteract it by either destroying it or stopping its effect. Other then that the card has a really great effect and is a great way to protect your monsters for any form of summoning or to just keep your monsters on the field.
