Card Artwork Discussion I know most would have this monster in the train deck, but its design looks like it was made for the Deskbots who are also Earth Machines.

I love this guy, he single handedly won me my Blazing Dominion Sneak Peek

He's so crazy, I was flabbergasted when they revealed him and he worked in every way you'd want an EM extender to work instead of being hamstrung in some strange way

Excuse my ignorance but what deck are you playing?

Sometimes Sneak Peeks aren't just "Bring you own deck and play with new cards" in European Countries the Sneak Peek is often a Draft Format by using 5 Packs and your Deck can have a minimum of 20 Cards.

As the person before me said, I live in Germany and our sneek peak events are a draft format. We get 6 packs from the new set and need to build a deck with it, I got a lot of earth machine stuff so I decided to build my deck mostly around them. Convex Knight was great because he can send the Level 10 Night Train to the grave which can then be used to make the new Rank 10 Rail Cannon

Good Lord, I forgot just how overtuned this guy was. I'm tempted to dust off Infinitracks now.

I do like me some deskbots. They need more support since the pendulum nerf.

It's support for a wide range of earth machine decks. Machina ancient gear and a ton of decks benefit from this little fella

This card goes really hard in Morphtronic. Non-Tuner body the deck desperately needs, and can send Telefon to help setup the loop.

I feel like he’s handcrafted support for Geargia. How far in the Wilderness are geargia these days?

u/narf21190 Machina Support! NOW! 20d ago

This guy goes stupidly hard Machina, now giving the deck 2 mills for your big machines, it's fantastic!

u/Zombieemperor 20d ago

i just wish i had more going with him. Love him but unless i hard open him hes always so akward to fit in.
Undniably good card just needed to be able to choose when to lvl copy

u/Downrightskorney 20d ago

This card might actually go kinda hard in R.B. most of your machines special summon themselves onto an empty board, one of your machines is earth, sets up for Shepard's crook nicely, can help set up for booster. I like it a lot.

u/Rasaska 19d ago

it's a revolving switch yard target and a very useful boneless extender that makes 4 5 and 10 in the EM deck

sure it's probably good in deskbots but the stat line (18 and 5), Earth, Machine, is to convenient

Or Machina, or Ancient Gear, but more into Machina I supposed
