Mobius the Frost Monarch
Usually this is the last card you have to play
before you know you're going to win.
Just as 1:1s are good now (like Widespared and MST),
2:2s are just as much so. Even better when you're
giving up 2 monsters (which you seem to get more
often than you'd like) to take out 2 S/Ts (which are
far more important.)
Worst-case scenario: You tribute for Mobius, your
opponent responds to the summon with Bottomless on
Mobius and Dust Tornado on your F/D card.
Average scenario: One of the two cards is chainable
but you'll usually have some other way to deal with
it.
Best-case: You took out two Sakus or a Saku and a
Widespread or something huge.
Seriously...multi-Mobius MAINDECKED is good right
now. With so many ways to keep a monster on the
field or get one quickly it's hard not to be able to
get him out. You have the Reapers to survive a turn
with Tribute bait, you have Cyber Dragons to pop out
to immediately sacrifice for Mobius, not to mention
the normal mainstays of Premature + Call to get
tribute fodder, Snatch Steal, etc, etc.
Run two and see how much better off you are. For
every time you topdeck one when you really need a
better card, you'll probably run into three or four
situations where Mobius just wins you the game by
taking out the back row.

Coin Flip
Mobius the Frost Monarch is simply gorgeous. Let me
persuade you of the fact.
2400 ATK is enormous, taking out Dark World monsters
and Cyber Dragon as well as Chaos Sorcerer. Double
MST upon summon? In-freaking-credible. You lose one
card and they lose two. If you get to attack a
monster, you made them lose three to your one. Even
if it gets Torrential'd or something, it's still a
series of 1 for 1's in YOUR favor.
There is no need for a long review here; the card is
awesome and you don't need me to tell you that.

Mobius The Frost Monarch
Mobius is a hottie =]. Hothothothothot.
2-1 potential, 3-1 actually. The rules are, you
tribute a monster for him, and you select 0, 1, or 2
Magic Or Traps, Face Up, or Face Down, and they go
byebye. Its hot stuff.
Its a very simple card, lets look at something
ideal...
Your opponent has a f/d Monster, and 2 f/d
Nonchainables. You tribute your only Monster for
Mobius, hit their facedown Saku and Dust, then
attack their facedown D.D. Assailant, they lost 3
cards, you lost 2. 3-2.
The godlike play would be
Your opponent has a f/u Don Zaloog, you tribute your
Sangan for Mobius, hit their Facedowns, then attack
Don Zaloog for a +3. GG xDDD.
Eventually, they would either take away Mobius with
Removal or a DD attack, so it results in a 4-1. >_<
hot.
