Continuing Synchro week, we come to one of the more interesting Synchros, in T.G. Recipro Dragonfly.  We have a Level 2, Wind attributed, Insect Synchro, with 300 attack and defense, who is Synchro Summoned with a Tuner and another non-Tuner monster.  That right there is actually good, allowing this card to work anywhere, as it doesn't require any specific materials, namely of a T.G. nature, despite its name.  As useless as this Insect may seem, I think it does have some potential...potentially.  While ridding yourself of a Synchro isn't a good idea usually, being able to bring the monsters back from the Graveyard, perhaps for a different Synchro, and then even hopefully to say use this, maybe for yesterday's card, isn't a bad idea.  The tricky part too is in the fact that you can't summon one or only some of the monsters used in said Synchro you send to the Graveyard, it has to be all, and they all must be in the Graveyard.  So once a turn you can select a T.G. Synchro you have on the Field, present company excluded, and activate this effect.  That's the part too where you would really only run this in its own Deck.  It does have some combos, but it's not the most useful I believe.

T.G. Recipro Dragonfly
 
Traditional: 3
Advanced: 3
 
Recipro Dragonfly is an interesting two star synchro from the latest set. I find it interesting because although its a T.G. monster it really doesn't fit into the archetype well unless the player uses non T.G. cards as currently there are no non level 1 tuners for said archetype. Its effect is pretty silly, but silly tends to work. It certainly gives you the option to separate and synchro again, allowing for some abuse of other T.G. monsters like Hyper Librarian. I also see combos to make Halbred Cannon but yall are smart enough to figure those out. I've seen some of your threads and you seem to be in support of this little robot fly bugger thing.
 
Overall Dragonfly is fairly staple in T.G. decks as you'll probably use tech cards to bring him out and make your deck that much better. Its effect is tricky with many combos but if you test it out you'll be drawing cards and dropping T.G. synchros like theres no tomorrow.
