True King’s Return 

I picked the cards to review this week, and I was torn because there were so many options. After deciding on Master Peace, Dinomight, and Diagram (for obvious reasons), it came down to picking one spell or trap from the large selection of incredibly powerful cards at the disposal of True King/Draco players. Ultimately I chose True King’s Return, perhaps because the name embodies the supremacy of the archetype. 

The two trap cards of the True K/D theme are not subtle in their structure. They were created to be similar and give six deck presence to the deck instead of three, thereby granting stability for True K/D, especially for Master Peace and True Draco Heritage. And the cards were tailor-made for Dinomight Knight, which can retrieve and activate them straight from the deck. Once that happens, you can tribute from the hand at any time during your opponent’s main phase, which is an unprecedented first for the game. Think Ultimate Offering on caffeine. The additional on-field effect to special summon a True K/D once per turn from your grave is quite ludicrous if you think about it. This card would have been run in triplicate without that effect being added, but it just highlights how broken the archetype currently is. 

True King’s Return is entirely reliant on its own archetype though. As the deck goes, so does this card. And unless a card has “Blue-Eyes” or “Dark Magician” in its name or effect somewhere, eventually it gets relegated to the binder like all the others. As such, this amazing card will only be amazing for so long.

Hello Pojo Fans,
 
Final card of the week is one of those cards Dragonic Diagram allows you to search for: True King's Return.
 
If it leaves the field you can destroy a monster, that includes if it is tributed for a True King or True Draco monster, breaking even at the worst and maintaining field pressence. Two effects, each can be used in the same turn, but not the same chain. Call of the Haunted for True King or True Draco monster, but locks out your Special Summons for the rest of the turn. If used during your opponents turn, this restriction doesn't matter. The second effect is specific to your opponents turn, allowing you to Tribute Summon a True Draco or True King. During the Main Phase still leaves your newly summoned True King or True Draco vaunerable, but you will get their effect(s) upon the summon, potentially interrupting your opponents strategy. The True Kings woun't gain their effects as they need to be Special Summoned from the hand and need two monsters with the same Attribute as them to gain their effect. Also, Agnimazud has only 1800DEF and being required to Special Summon them in defense with True King's Return hurts Agnimazud. Regardless, to get a strong monster on the field during your opponents turn, every turn is a good effect.
