Talk:Black Dragon of Demise, Death Tallica/@comment-839017-20150208044345

The more I play around with this card, the more I absolutely adore it, if only because people still aren't used to it and therefore don't know how to play against it. Tallica is essentially the only card capable of shutting down an opponents offensive pressure completely for multiple turns because of how unique it's Abyssal Soulguard (thats what I call it shush) is in function.

People generally play as if they always expect to be able to hit an opponent, either because the opposing deck works best without a Center monster or only a paper-wall distraction of sorts is placed there to shrug off one attack. Tallica subverts that to no end by being a center occupying juggernaut that can easily match, if not outlast, even Duel Sieger and his evolutions. Sure he doesn't have much defense, but DDW has enough spells to make it last even longer. To boot, in some cases Tallica's mere prescence can cause an opposing deck to self destruct. I already can't wait for the day in the future where the Deep attribute gets even more toys to either assist or serve as alternates to Tallica~
