E-Hero Electrum

Dude, just...no...

Elemental Hero monsters are hard enough to play on their own, with pretty much none of them being tournament-worthy individually, and none being strong enough to base a deck on. One that requires four cards in its fusion is bad by default even if its effect was "You win the Duel".

If that wasn't bad enough, the fact that he returns in all RFGs actually works AGAINST your average comeptitive E-Hero build. E-Heroes in GOOD decks are brought out by Miracle Fusion. Miracle Fusion removes stuff from the game, where it sits until Return from the Different Dimension goes off for an E-Hero weenie swarm. You want the stuff you RFG'd to stay RFG'd.

1/5 for all formats, obviously.
 

Ryoga
E-Hero Electrum:
An example of how supporting a type does not imply making a card that merely has that type in its text.

This requires four fusion material monsters, gains an ATK bonus on top of an already large enough ATK. And, ooo, it branches out into the other attributes. Wow!
Thus, this card does nothing for a massive investment.
One day, Konami will produce a fusion monster like this that says, "If this card is successfuly fusion summoned, you win the game." On that day, we might have a decent fusion monster.

Traditional: 1/5
Advanced: 1/5

Share and enjoy,
Ryoga

Today we look at one beastly Elemental Hero fusion, E-Hero Electrum, who looks real good, but doesn't actually do a whole lot. First, he requires FOUR monsters to be Fusion Summoned, and that's a few too many for me. You need Bubbleman, Burstinatrix, Avian, and Clayman. What do you get for all that?

A monster that has five attributes, Light, Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire and has 2900 attack points and 2600 defense points. Attack is good, but the effects are where Electrum gets hurt. First, he gains 300 attack points for every face up non Dark monster you have on the field.

Secondly, both players add any and all cards they have Removed from Play to their decks and shuffle them. Good perhaps for yourself if you have summoned this guy and played Miracle Fusion three times previously. I'm sorry, I don't even like this guy in the E-Hero deck.

My reasoning is this...the other E-Hero fusions generally do cool things. Bladege can attack all your opponent's monsters, Flame Wingman deals burn damage, Shining Flame Wingman deals damage and boosts himself and this guy just might get a boost and might make your deck a bit bigger.

Ratings:

1.75/5 Sorry E-Hero fans

Art: 3.75/5 Kinda looks like the Flash

You stay classy, Planet Earth :)

E-Hero Electrum

5/5

-it's a fusion>>>>>>

A fusion with a pointless effect and almost impossible to summon with polymerization. Future Fusion provides us with a 4 E-Hero Dump, thus making Miracle Fusion that much more powerful.
 

DeathJester

E-Hero Electrum

 

Electrum’s effect is not that good. His ATK power is pretty decent for a 10-star monster too. Thank goodness we have Future Fusion to make things easier for the Fusion Duelist eh?

 

We have Miracle Fusion too. That card really helps E-Hero decks.

 

Would I use him? Nah. I’d stick to the smaller fusions like Flame Wingman, Thunder Giant, etc.

 

Last Word: Use it at your own risk. E-Hero Fusion decks CAN be playable. I’ve seen it done. Are they SJC worthy? Probably not; perhaps some might prove me wrong?
