Kaiju

From YGOCounter


Kaiju


You can Special Summon this card (from your hand) to your opponent's field in Attack Position, by Tributing 1 monster they control. If your opponent controls a "Kaiju" monster, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand) in Attack Position. You can only control 1 "Kaiju" monster.

Tribute your opponent monster to Special Summon on their field

Tips:
  • The most common-used Kaiju is Gameciel, the Sea Turtle Kaiju, with lowest ATK (2200ATK), easier to attack over.
  • However, depend on earch deck, you can select other Kaiju with the compatible Type / Attribute / Level.

For example: - Cyber Dragon deck prefer Jizukiru, the Star Destroying Kaiju with Machine type - Dino deck prefer Dogoran, the Mad Flame Kaiju with Dinosaur type

- Insect deck prefer Gadarla, the Mystery Dust Kaiju

-Secreterion Dragon

Secreterion Dragon

Kaiju-type removal is typically really strong, however, against Branded, it can be risky. Tributing Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon causes an End-Phase Board nuke. Tributing Granguignol the Dusk Dragon Granguignol the Dusk Dragon doesn't actually prevent her special summon effect, as it can be activated in GY. Albion the Sanctifire Dragon Albion the Sanctifire Dragon will typically have already summoned either Archlord Kristya Archlord Kristya or Ido the Supreme magical Force Ido the Supreme magical Force, which would prevent you from summoning a Kaiju at all. The main target should be something like Secreterion Dragon, as it potentially shuts off a floodgate.

DoomZ XII End - Drastrius

One of the easiest ways to remove DoomZ XII End - Drastrius DoomZ XII End - Drastrius without having to deal with his once-per-turn Destruction prevention.

Enneacraft - Atori.MAR or another Enneacraft threatening to your deck.
While instantly removing one Enneacraft is usable, you have no way of knowing which Enneacraft is in what zone, making hitting the best target a gamble. WeakView Edit

Hoping that you're not playing the FIRE Kaiju, if they end with only a monster on field it could be a huge stop. They can always regain momentum with Jurrac Meteor Jurrac Meteor, assuming they set it up.

Lava Golem Lava Golem most of the times is a benefit for them.

Sky Striker Ace = Zero Sky Striker

Any Sky Striker Link Monster in the Extra Monster Zone. Typically Sky Striker Ace - Zero

Sky Striker Ace - Zero.

Most Sky Striker Quick-play spells require all their Main Monster Zones to be vacant. Special Summoning a Kaiju turns off most of their interaction. If a Sky Striker Link Monster is tributed, Sky Striker Ace - Raye Sky Striker Ace - Raye does not trigger to revive from the GY, since it was tributed for cost and not via an effect.

The player may be forced to use cards such as Sky Striker Special Maneuver - Lemnisgate! Sky Striker Special Maneuver - Lemnisgate! to bounce the Kaiju back to hand, or key non-engine interruptions such as The Fallen & The Virtuous The Fallen & The Virtuous in order to free up the main monster zone on your turn.
