My card for discussion this week is Fabled Kushano. He isn't exactly a new card either but I believe he deserves some love for several reasons. First, essentially, he's a +1. you have to discard a Fabled so it's very likely that it will summon itself or another Fabled. I dueled a Fabled guy the other day who used him and it was interesting how much advantage he can pump. A very simple move he did was discard Lurrie to add Kushano to hand, then specified Lurrie and normaled Kushano for a level 4 Fabled synchro. Basically that was a one for one synchro...not bad. There's quite a bit more tricks you can do with him however. Discard a Lurrie/Cerburrel/Ganashia to add him to hand, then discard him for Chawa to special summon him, at which point he's in the grave so you can discard another Fabled to add him back to hand. Two special summons for free again. Lots of other things i could say too. But Fabled just aren't all that consistent...or are they?

The thing that grabbed my attention is this: a few people have been looking for Sangan replacements since many of us expect him to get the banhammer in March. Tour Bus kinda made it obvious, and he's just as useful as Witch of The Black Forest honestly, if not more useful. Some people use Tour Bus, some are trying Possesed Dark Soul because it has a pretty decent effect if you draw it (screw you Inzektors!), but I was lookin at the list of level 3 fiends and Kushano was there. I'd just never though of it before. He can be Tour Guided! This means Fabled can possibly be Chaosy now, and not just that, but have a more consistent aggro engine that also gets Kushano in grave fast. Not just that, but it puts him on field first so you can use Grimro to your heart's content to search out things that will be helpful when Kushano is detatched. And let's not forget Fabled can synchro faster than even Plants, albeit less consistently. What do you guys think?

Bump

I can say i havent really played yugioh for the last 3-4 months (only 3 games as i remember) and i didnt see very much. All i know is about the new archetypes which came into the game, also slifer is back too.
But now you harper made me realize that fabled are not yet out of the game. I know konami wants to make now all decks playable (still with meta though) so this is another deck they revived but not everybody got the ideas about fabled.
This might force me to try making fabled deck as soon as i jump back into the game.
thanx harpah ;D
