Goblin Attack Force
Earth
[Warrior/Effect]
Level 4
2300/0
When this card attacks, it is changed to Defense
Position at the end of the Battle Phase. This position
cannot be changed during your next turn.
For this CoTD, I'll refer this card as GAF for short.
~_^
This card is currently the HIGHEST attack level 4 or
lower Monster (not counting Muka Muka =/). 2300 is
amazingly high but the card of course has a pretty bad
drawback.. We usually don't care about the defenses of
certain cards that were meant to attack anyway.
However, because of the card's drawback, the defense
becomes really important. Let's look at the DEF...
0... ugh. This means that once it has attacked, even a
Magician of Faith can kill it. Although that is true,
there are a couple of ways to benefit from it.
1. You can always use Swords of Revealing Light so
that your GAF can be safe from 2 attack phases until
he can attack again.
2. If your opponent uses Change of Heart on it after
it has attacked last turn, he cannot change the card
to attack mode!
3. You can Tribute it after you attack...
If you play beatdown, you should definitely play
around 1-2 GAFs. I'm not really sure about 3 GAFs
though... If you put Fairy's Meteor Crush on it, your
opponent would be taking a lot of damage, even if it's
only for a turn. At worse, you can keep it out as a
2300 ATK Wall and just attack when you think you can
benefit the most from it. Don't overlook this card
because of its drawback. Instead, learn how to use it
well.
Rating: 4/5 |

Computer troubles annoy me
completely. That said, we have a great card today,
Goblin Attack Force! For those of you who looked ahead
or played Japanese cards, Goblin Attack Force is
highly admired and highly anticipated. It's quite an
amazing card, really.
Obviously, 2300 attack for
a four star monster is simply amazing. It beats any
other non-stat enhanced level 4- monster outright. The
effect looks simply terrible, right? Yes and no. It
may look like a one-hit wonder, but that's not the
case. It's EXTREMELY easy to stop an enemy from
attacking for two or more turns, and not just with
Swords of Revealing Light. Play intelligently, and you
can.
What beats this card
badly is Fairy Meteor Crush. They destroy the defense
Goblins and do direct damage. That's a huge weakness.
However, that's not extremely common, but certainly a
possibility.
This card is simply
amazing. It can be an attack wall, do massive
damage, be found with Witch of the Black Forest and
eventually sacrifice it to an even bigger monster.
Three should be used in every beatdown deck, if
possible. That could be hard though, considering it
was made an ultra-rare. =\ My rating is a 4.7.
It's just that good; don't let the effect stop you
from using this gem.

Introduction: I get a 2300 without tributing! HAHAHAH!
Level 4
Earth
[Warrior/Effect]
2300/0
When this card attacks, it is changed to Defense
Position at the end of the
Battle Phase. This position cannot be changed during
your next turn.
Why should you use it?
*Strong ATK
*Ofensive Wall
*No tributes
Why shouldn't you use it?
*Dead once it ATKs
*Poor DEF
Reasons: My pick for Monday. Today we're looking at
one of the great cards
in Pharoh Servant, Goblin Attack Force. This card is
very strong, and can
probably reek mayhem. With a beefy 2300 ATK, it is a
major staple in any
deck. Also, you may not want to ATK with this card, so
you can just leave it
on ATK and make it a 2300 big offensive wall that is
hard to kill. The final
key is what makes this card awesome. No tributes! It
is a Level 4 Monster,
and has a somewhat decent effect. According to some
people, the effect is
wat kills the card. But in reality, if you can play
the card correctly, you
can use it to your advantage. For example, you use
this card to take out a
weaker monster. Since it switches DEF, you don't have
to worry about losing
Life Points from a bigger monster. Finally, it has
poor DEF, which makes it
very easy to destroy once switch to DEF. Most of the
time this won't matter,
unless our like some Duke and uses Fairy Meteor Crush.
Rating: This card defitantely is good. Can you say
atleast one in every
deck? Well for this reason, I like it's effect, since
I can use it as a
positive instead of a negative. I give this card a
4.5. It is currently the
strongest no tribute, non effect monster. In the
futhure, other cards might
replace it, but very few or any will at all. Time will
tell for this card.
Conclusion: Staple! Staple! Staple! Need I say more?

Monday - Goblin Attack
Force
Today we look at the strongest level 4 attack monster
in all of duel monsters, Goblin Attack Force. This
card has stats of 2300/0 and switches to defense after
it has attacked for 1 turn.
The obvious upside of this card is the immense attack
power for a level 4 monster with only a moderate
drawback. The downside is that it cannot attack the
turn after it attacks since it switches to defense
mode after it attacks. And since it has a defense
power of 0, it probably wont survive the turn that it
stays in defense. In addition, it is very susceptible
to shield and sword and fairy's meteor crush, which
most of you saw with Joey's duel with Duke.
I give this card a 3.7/5. It will definitely be very
popular in beatdown decks. If you're going to put it
into your deck, find a way to be able to protect it
for the turns in which it will be in defense.

Goblin Attack Force
If you're gona be building suicide beatdown with Dark
Elfs, Rush Recklessly and all those other crazy pure
beatdown cards, then this is the card you've been
waiting for. This guy is a one shooter that can smack
your opponent for 2300 with out you having to modify
his ATK at all. The draw back about him is that he's
pretty much done after he attacks and that's one less
removal spell your opponent will have to play.
I don't think he would go in normal beatdown because
the tempo of the game changes a lot and the last thing
you want is to have a Monster that can only attack
every so often is he doesn't get smacked by a
Hane-hane, Man-eater Bug or even a Magician of Faith.
