Explained
A Link-3 that gains effects based on how many monsters it points to: 1+ negates all your opponent's face-up monsters and halves their ATK once per turn; 2+ makes it unaffected by your opponent's activated effects; 3 lets it banish itself and all your opponent's cards on their turn.
In Power Patron decks as a boss that gets stronger the more monsters you place in the zones it points to.
- Expecting the field banish while it points to fewer than 3 monsters.
- Using the banish in the Damage Step.
How it works
Materials: 2 or more monsters, including a Fusion, Synchro, Xyz or Link Monster.
It gains effects based on the number of monsters it points to:
- 1+: Once per turn, during your Main Phase, negate the effects of all face-up monsters your opponent currently controls, and halve their ATK until the end of the turn.
- 2+: Unaffected by your opponent’s activated effects.
- 3: Once per opponent’s turn (Quick Effect), banish this card and all cards your opponent controls.
When to use it
Filling its three Link Arrows unlocks a field wipe on your opponent’s turn, but even with one monster pointed to it shuts down your opponent’s monsters for a turn.
Rulings in plain English
Is gaining the effects an effect? No; the individual abilities are.
1+ effect: An Ignition Effect. You can activate it even if all your opponent’s monsters are Normal Monsters, already negated, or at 0 ATK.
3 effect: A Quick Effect, not in the Damage Step. You can activate it with no cards on your opponent’s field, and if Mediclius has left the field, the rest is still banished.
