Gem-Knight Zirconia. As stated before, Gem Knights
may have received more support than anybody in
Hidden Arsenal 7. This is a powerful enough Fusion
Monster, at Level 8, Earth attribute (not bad), Rock
(also not bad, but not good, either) with 2900
attack and 2500 defense. Normally, you wouldn't
play a high attack, high level, non effect Monster,
even if it's a Fusion. Though Black Skull Dragon
(or Masked Beast even to prove a point) saw play
once upon a time in a very different Yugioh World.
Gem Knights may actually put one in the extra Deck
though. They have many a arsenal of Gem Fusions to
choose from, ala Elemental Heroes, and most of them
have moderate to sub par attack and/or defense, and
bizarre, less than helpful, irrelevant effects. Zirconia
is effect less but has an incredible attack, which
is important to the Gem theme.

Traditional: 1.25/5
Advanced: 2.75/5

Wow....a fusion monster. Gem-Knight Zirconia is a
big ole beastick, nothing more, nothing less. An
EARTH/Rock type, needing an Gem-Knight monster and a
Rock-type monster are needed to fuse together.
Polymerization, Super Polymerization, and Gem Knight
Fusion can get that done. Or you can use The
Earth-Hex Sealed Fusion, as you can use it as the
Rock monster needed and it doubles as Polymerization
as well. There's not much to say about Zirconia as
it has no real effect, other than its impressive
stats of 2900/2500 for ATK and DEF. So it can get
over almost every monster and defend against a lot.
Zirconia is pretty much the muscleman of the
Gem-Knight family, nothing really wrong with that.

Today we are looking at:
Gem-Knight Zirconia
He doesn’t have an effect, and
he is a fusion monster. That’s cool right? Being
level 8 automatically stops the instant fusion
shenanigans though. You pretty much needs to run a
dedicated Gem Knight deck if you ever want to get
him out. They aren’t really Meta right now, but it
is a really fun deck to build if you ever want to
try something strange.
Overall I can’t really say I
love him, but in Gem knights you normally use him.
Advanced: 2/5 (Only in Gem
Knight extra)
Traditional: 1/5

Welcome to another review!! Today we are
reviewing a new Gem-Knight fusion monster from the
Hidden Arsenal 7 set.
Gem-Knight Zirconia
Level 8
Attribute: Earth
Types: Rock/ Fusion
1 "Gem-Knight" monster + 1 Rock-Type monster
ATK/ 2900 DEF/ 2500
So at first glance this card looks really bad. It
is a fusion monster with no effect but has nice
attack and defense stats. Even though this card
looks bad it can actually come in handy in a
Gem-Knight deck. It isn’t an effect monster so it
can’t be targeted with Fiendish Chain and it can
also be special summoned with Daigusto Emeral. This
monster is also one of the easiest Gem-Knight fusion
monsters to summon because it can be created using a
Gem-Knight and Rock-Type monster. Both of these
fusion materials are pretty common in Gem-Knight
decks because a lot of the Gem-Knights are also rock
monsters. This monster may look pretty bad to most
people but in a Gem-Knight deck this card can
actually be pretty useful. It’s a nice beater that
isn’t too hard to summon.
Advanced: 2.5/5
-Definitely a nice option in Gem-Knight decks. It
would be nice if this monster had an effect but it
still is pretty decent.
Traditional: 1/5
-I don’t think Gem-knights would be too great here
and this monster probably wouldn’t be able to do
much in this format.
Art: 4/5
