Garma Sword

This one's gonna be short and sweet, folks. 99% of all rituals suck, and as this one doesn't have a great effect (or an effect AT ALL for that matter), it sucks.

3 cards to get one 2550 monster < Cyber Dragon + any other monster. That's how the game pretty much is right now.

1/5 all

Have a nice day!

Garma Sword review:

It's another overdue card that is will only be mainboarded by collectors

TP pack, ftl (for the loss)

Magic Arm Shield review:

So we get a pseudo Magic Lamp trap card. Could be used as a nice surprise for the enemy, especially if they've switched a Sorceror to def in fear of MF. But I don't really expect it to be played, it doesn't garauntee destruction

Traditional: phail/5
Advanced: 1/5
 

Ryoga
Garma Sword:
You know my opinion of the blue cards...

Again, if you really want a review,
- largest Lv. 7 fusion, being just bigger than the best Lv. 6's summoned by normal means;
- however, it's a fusion! Why devote time and effort for something with no incentive to play (read "effect")?

Traditional: 1/5
Advanced: 1/5

Share and enjoy,
Ryoga

Garma Sword ;

If memory serves, this is a really week ritual monster.

Generally, rituals don’t work, and I’m sorry to say that they never really have. They require just as much investment as fusions, but are even less dependable. This ritual is pretty much Crab turtle. Bad, ugly, except worse because I don’t like it.

I know you guys don’t like short reviews, and usually I don’t like giving them, but take it from me, Garma Sword is a bad card. A large investment, weak attack, situational, and just generally bad. Even if rituals were better supported this card would be bad. Avoid, for the love of god. If you want a strong ritual , go get a Shinato.

Traditional : 1/5
Advanced ; 1/5

Art ; 1/5 What…the hell…
MPS : 1/5 No way….
 
MikeJ Garma Sword Oath

Ritual Spell Card

Text: This card is used to ritual summon " Garma Sword ". You most also Tribute Monsters whose total level equal 7 or more from the field or your hand

Garma Sword

Level 7/Dark

ATK 2550 / 2150 DEF

Warror/Ritual This monster can only be Ritual Summoned with this Ritual Spell Card, " Garma Sword Oath "

Since we're reviewing a ritual spell card we should also do the ritual monster makes since does it ?. I'm not going to lie to anyone I really dislike rituals unless they have effects but even then thats pushing it. Much like actually " Fusion Summoning " with things like Poly or Fusion Gate its take a lot of waste cards to perform this ritual for nothing except a big ritual monster with no effect with 2550/2150 which can take down a lot of things played nowadays for example Jinzo, Zaborg, Cyber Dragon, plus Chaos Sorcerer just to name a few or even a random Dark Magician with its amazing 50 ATK difference [ insert sarcasm ] but all those cards wasted are not worth it in the end so this card much like yesterdays is made for fun decks

Traditional Format > 1.0/5

Advance Format > 1.5/5

Artwork > 3/5: I like the artwork of the ritual spell more then the ritual monster

Wow. Just wow.

Poo on a stick in card form.

2550 atk is just above single tribute monster status. 2150 def is great (if by great I mean a lightening rod for Smashing Ground).

NO EFFECT! It is Blueberry Vanilla Swirl, baby. Nothing fancy.

Lv 7? Ritual? Means you have to discard 7 stars worth of monsters? The only
2 7 star or higher monsters currently seeing active play is DMoC and Sacred Phoenix. Are you discarding either of these 2? Or are you discarding 2 4 star monsters making this a 3 for 1. Sure he is a dark and warrior, but at this point, that is like a fresh coat of paint on a porta-potty.

Bottom Line:
Traditional: NO NONONONONO! 1/5
Advanced: see "Traditional"

Art: 4/5 - its only saving grace is the cool bug with swords look it has going on, but why the geneticly altered Princess Leia buns on the side of the head. *creapy*

Until next time, mmmmmm blueberry vanilla swirl.

Pippin
