Hey ladies and gentlemen. Here is
another spiffy cotD from DrZaPPeR84
Mysterious Puppeteer:
Overall 3
Tourney play 2.5
Casual play 3.5
Pros:
-it can heal
-moderate defense
-Its an effect mon
-has one or 2 nice combos with it
Cons:
-attack is crappy
-power can only be used once
Reasons for Pros:
Well, the power is really spiffy. At most you can
heal 5000 Life points, Although I doubt that will
happen. If it does, then hey! you used puppeteer to
its fullest use... Its defense isn't horrible,
1500 isnt that bad, but its not as good as all the
big defenders of today. I love effect monsters, so
thats always a plus. And finally it has some nice
combos with it. Like Ultimate offerings with this,
you get all the monsters you want and then you well
use this to get back the LP that you discarded. Or
this with raigeki. Low on LP? And your oppenent is
about to win the game? Well, with this that doesnt
happen quite so easily. Just use his power, and then
raigeki.
Reasons for cons:
The attack is near crap status, if you use his
attack you are just asking to well, die. Also the
power can be only used once, so he is like one time,
and I am all used up good bye. This card though is
fun to play, and if you want to play a fun tribute
deck with this card, then this card a long with the
staples of decks are well nice.
Thats all, Until Next time...

Quite an interesting effect, but the stats just make
it not that great.
Pros: Gain 500 LP for every monster on
the field, not just yours. Therefore if you
need some LP, your opponent can help out.
Not a Flip Effect
Cons:
Stats =/
Earth Main Type
Since it
benefits for each monster on the field, the best way
to use this is when you have a full field. I
like the combination of this with Ultimate Offering.
Use Ultimate Offering to bring out a lot of
monsters at 500 LP, then slap this down and gain 500
for each monster, and what your opponent has. Gain
LP and get out a lot of monsters at the same time,
not bad...
It's kind of
nice that this isn't a flip effect. You can
play it from your hand in attack mode and use the
effect. You don't have to put it in defense
and wait to activate the effect. Kinda nifty,
right? ;-)
Even for a Level
4, 1000/1500, not great stats. Then again, not
many effects come with great stats. If you're
pulling the Ultimate Offering combo, play this down,
use the effect, then sacrifice it. That's the
best way to get around this.
Who plays Earth
monsters? No really good ones, so you can't
really play an earth deck. That just means no
powering it up. Oh well, so be it, just
activate the effect and sacrifice it, as I've said.
It's a good card, but only use it if you have
extra space, which isn't common if you try to keep
it as close to 40 cards as possible. I
wouldn't use it unless you're somehow using up LP
really fast, but that isn't anything to worry about
in American, so I won't go into that..... |

Wow... really cool common card. Especially if you and your
opponent have lots of monsters out. Kablamo! Lots of
health back. Using your opponent's monsters against
'em!
Combos: Monsters. Lots of
monsters. Oh, and healing cards ^_^ Get lots and
lots of health in one turn and dominate! W00t!

3.5/5 – Hey, no one can argue with lp
right? This card is great in that respect.
Otherwise…. =/
Mysterious Puppeteer… Wow… For every
monster on the field you get 500 lp and for any
others that enter you get 500 more. o_O It seems
like Dian Keto has some competition for the
curemaster status.
The Puppeteer works well in a stall deck, since the
more lps you have, the harder it is to win. The nice
thing about the Puppeteer, however, is the fact that
it is NOT a flip! Thus, several combos come to
mind… Monster Reborn to increase Puppeteer
capacity, Last Will after you tribute a monster,
Ultimate Offering to get more monsters out. In
general, there should be around two monsters out at
a time. That means 1500 lp for you, due to the
Puppeteer itself. If players are more defensive,
there could be four to six monsters out giving you
2500 to 3500 lp! A powerful card under the right
circumstances.
How to stop the lp gain? Well, if you destroy it
while it’s face down that might work… Not sure
if Trap Hole would nullify the effects, but I’m
guessing no. I suppose you can try Card Destruction,
but you don’t really hit with it, you just hope to
nail something good with it. You’ll just have to
DEAL with the lps. Which should not be TOO hard
since Puppeteer must be face up, meaning in attack
mode from the hand, for its effects to work. Which
means your opponent will take lp damage, if you have
a 1000+atk monster WHICH YOU SHOULD! >=/

Rating - 3.5/5 Puppeteer
is a cool card...with 1500 defense, it can withstand
a lot of attacks. And, you get +500 life points for
every monster in play, which is a huge bonus! You
could play this as your fifth monster, and your
opponent has 3, and theres +4000 life points! But,
since Puppeteer only has 1000 attack points, if you
put it in attack mode, odds are its dead. This card
doesn't fit into every deck, but decks with Wall of
Illusion, Man-Eater Bug and Hane-Hane, this card
fits in to. |
