If we are going to make a Gagaga deck and have it be competitive, we need to make good cards that can increase out chances of winning. Gagagabolt is one such card as it is extremely versatile. The ability to destroy any card on the field makes Gagagabolt useful in almost any situation. The only thing that would make this card better is to make it a quick play spell card and send a card to the graveyard instead of destroying it.

Currently there are two Gagaga monsters you can use Gagagabolt on in Magician and Girl. Those two names also appear in cards Yugi used. The Gagaga monsters are used by Yuma in the new ZEXAL series. Now that we have some color to our cards, I would like to point out that Japan has another Gagaga monster in Gardna. As I pointed out yesterday, it is fairly easy to get a Gagaga monster to the field so Gagagabolt is rarely a dead card in this deck type. If you are running a Gagaga deck, you are going to want to run 2 or 3 Gagagbolts as it is just that good in this deck.

Traditional: 1/5
Advanced: 3/5 (In a Gagaga deck only)

Day 2 of Card names you can't say 5 times real fast week has us looking at support for yesterday's Gagaga Girl, Gagagabolt. A simple effect, Gagagabolt says If you control a face up Gagaga monster, target one card on the field and destroy it. A fine support card that reminds me of Thousand Knives for The Dark Magician. Gagagabolt can wipe out any card, monster or spell/trap to make way for attacks, Marshmellon in your way, zap'em. Judgement Dragon staring you down, hit it with this. A little afraid of that possible face down Mirror Force? Get rid of it with Gagagabolt. All you need is a Gagaga monster on your field and one or two of these can open a direct attack or two. A good support card for the Gagagas.

Traditional: 2
Advanced: 3
Tomorrow: GuGuGuard!!!

Gagagabolt
My computer has been screwy lately, which is why I'm starting on Tuesday. I got stuff for Monday too, so you can go back to that.

Basically, you can blow up anything you want if you have out Gagaga Magician, Gagaga Girl, or the still-Japanese Gagaga Gardna. So it sounds like a pretty amazing card...granted you have one of these cards out. Aside from Gardna (a cross between Battle Fader and Marshmallon), though, you probably don't want to have your Gagaga monsters out on the field for long.

Between their self-named support cards, the GGG's have a lot of staying power, but the reliance of having a GGG out on the field really kills this card, especially considering the GGG's have no true "boss monster" of their own.

Between three MST, three Smashing Ground, three of a lot of other splashable cards...I really don't see having the room to justify a slot for GGGbolt. It's certainly a step up from Synchro Blast Wave or Thousand Knives to be able to target S/T, but I'd rather run Raigeki Break or even Nobleman of Crossout over GGGbolt. It's just not worth using if you don't intend to have a GGG consistently out on your field. Unless you just don't have that many splashable cards on hand or strongly believe in the cause to having GGG's out on the field, I personally don't recommend this card.

Niche Decks: Gagaga, if the archetype ever gets more specific support

Traditional: 1/5
Advanced: 1.2/5 (if just to indicate it's slightly better than tomorrow's card)
Aesthetics: 2/5 Reminds me a lot of Justi-Break.
