Explained
A Level 7 Synchro. When Synchro Summoned, you can destroy all cards on the field, including itself. Once per turn, banish a Plant from your GY to turn an opponent's Defense Position monster to Attack Position with 0 ATK.
When your opponent's board is bigger than yours, as a full field wipe from the Extra Deck.
- Forgetting it destroys itself and your cards too.
- Missing the timing. It only works right after its Synchro Summon, not if something else happens first.
How it works
Materials: 1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters.
- When Synchro Summoned: Destroy all cards on the field.
- Once per turn: Banish 1 Plant monster from your GY, then target 1 Defense Position monster your opponent controls. Change it to face-up Attack Position; its ATK becomes 0 until the end of the turn.
When to use it
It’s one of the few Extra Deck monsters that destroys every card on the field, released in the TCG in 2008. It’s best when you’re behind on board and can rebuild afterward.
Rulings in plain English
Does it destroy itself? Yes, all cards on both fields.
When can I activate it? Only immediately after its Synchro Summon. If it was summoned by an effect at Chain Link 2 or higher and something else happened after, you can’t.
Second effect: It targets a face-up or face-down Defense Position monster. Changing position and setting ATK to 0 count as simultaneous. You can target one that already has 0 ATK.
