I'm back!
Hurray right? Yea, sure, I know you are all
happy to see me again. I've been what you can
say busy for a while with a little thing called
Band Camp... Two weeks of 9AM - 9PM band
practice. It is hell if you know what I mean,
but it is well worth it. Well anywho, I'm back
just in time before school starts. I'll do some
tourny reports before then, but once school
starts, I'll have to slow down again since I'm
taking AP and Gifted classes. Homework is going
to be IMMENSE! Anywho, enough of my life and
back to Duel Masters! Today we review a personal
favorite from the new set, Apocalypse Vise.
Apocalypse Vise
Type
: Spell
Civilization : Fire
Mana
Cost : 7
Text
: Destroy any
number of your opponent's creatures that have
total power 8000 or less.
Flavor Text :"I've
invented a fun new weight-loss machine! It's
guaranteed to make you thinner, or your money
back!"
-Rikabu, the Dismantler
Rarity : Rare
Set :
Thundercharge of Ultra Destruction
Civilization
The fire
civilzation has been evolving and getting
considerable boosts ever since Survivors of the
Megapocalypse. Fire is formidable civilization.
With the addition of Apocalypse Vise and Kooc
Pollon, Fire is going to see even more play.
This civilization is rocking the meta!
Cost
and Ability
You might
think seven is a lot of mana for a fire card.
Well, what does it do? Get rid of a creature
with 4000 or less? Nah. Sweep the field of all
blockers? No way. Get rid of a single FDF or a
BAT, Hulcus, Corile, and Rumbling Terrahorn at
the same time? Hell yes! To get rid of an X
amount of creatures with 8000 or less power is
MORE than a decent effect for 7 mana. It is
excellent. This baby one me a couple matches of
the invitationals, mainly the ones that really
counted. Apocalypse Vise should fit into any
deck alongside Searing Wave.
What
to use instead
Like I said.
ALONGSIDE Searing Wave. I think this card is
irreplacible. If you DO want to run something
cheaper, you will want ro run Searing Wave. It
can't take down a fatty, but it can still take
out mini creatures. I prefer Apocalypse Vise
because it has NO downside! Absolutely none! If
you have the mana, use it!
Final
Overview
This is
definitely one of the better cards from
Thundercharge. It has a great effect, decent
price for it, and is from the fire civilzation.
It rocked me in my Release tourny and it rocked
in my deck at the Invites. Have fun with this
card. USE IT!
Constructed - 4/5 - If you have the
mana, use it well.
Limited - 3.5/5 - High mana cost makes
it a LITTLE less playable. But if you do get it
out, your opponent is screwed.
