Talk:Nanomachine Ninja, Byakuya/@comment-839017-20150531070628

After some thought on this card, I did come to a conclusion. Namely I believe it does deserve its RRR status. Now at first, 5000/1/1000 with Shadow Dive and a Discard to Restand ability doesn't seem too impressive. But that's honestly because I feel I've been looking at this wrong. True it can attack the fighter directly and continuously no matter what, but that's not this cards true value I feel.

Take a moment to think for a second: In 9 out of 10 decks, players go for high offense, low defense cards to break through enemy walls to constantly deal damage. It's why cards like Thousand Rapier and its clones are considered staples, while similar cards with defense oriented stats such as Latale Shield or Heavy-Armor are ignored. Since this is the case and I doubt the standard for monsters will change anytime soon, how does this mean one should use a high power, low crit restanding monster?

Using it to minus the opponent, of course! Forget using its ability to chain direct attacks through an occupied center, use Byakuya to destroy two monsters on the opponents field whilst only discarding a single card, or perhaps even destroy three mosnters with two discards! A monster that can mow down a full field with somewhat decent ease...The ability name Nanomachine Clone Exterminate really does fit, ya know~
