I wish we had looked at Magical Android earlier in
the week, because I consider it to be the least
useful of the week, but maybe that's just me.
Magical Android is of the Light Attribute and is
Level 5 with 2400 atk and 1700 def of the Psychic
type.
See, Magical Android, as if you hadn't heard this
before, is Synchro Summoned by one Tuner and one or
more non-Tuner type monsters. See, being Level 5,
simply a tribute would be required, but here, you
are still using at least two cards for only a Level
5 monster.
Anyway, during your End Phase, you gain 600
Lifepoints for each face-up Psychic-type monster you
control. Honestly, I consider Lifepoint gain to be
an underrated tactic in Yugioh, but most players
dismiss it as crap. This card will probably stay in
the Trade Binder.

Okay...last one of the week. Lv. 5 tuner means
hardly any material is required, but the odd number
of level stars might make it difficult unless the
proper Tuners are used. 2400 ATK pales in
comparison to other Synchros of the same levels, but
it's a nice little trick against burn decks, being
able to sit on his effect and gain life for not only
himself, but any other Psychics you control.
Not much else to say here -- he's nowhere near as
fearsome as Stardust or Red Dragon Archfiend, but
he's a nice trick for certain situations. I'd only
give him one slot in my Extra deck unless burn is
prevalent in the area.

This is the best level 5 Synchro, the other one
being the horrible Junk Warrior. You get a 2400 body
and a bonus lifegain at the end of your turn. 600
for each of your Psychic monsters. This can get
especially crucial in the late game, where extra
lifepoints are always appreciated.
It is a little bit harder to summon than Goyo
Guardian, as it needs a level 4 monster and a level
1 Tuner, or a 3 and 2 combo. This can be
accomplished quite easily with Junk Synchron,
Specially Summoning a level 2 monster form your
graveyard with it's effect and then Synchro
Summoning Magical Android. Then as a bonus, she is a
LIGHT monster, meaning that a surprise Honest can
be, well, surprising. Because of this, she fits
right in with Lightsworn Synchro decks, but they are
more likely to summon Goyo, as he is in their level
jurisdiction
While she is not as devastating as Goyo Guardian,
she can make waves with her ATK and her effect can
be a real life-saver. I have to say that it is one
of the underused Synchros, as people don't seem to
like her. I however have fallen in love, and still
need to get my playset.

Todayʼs card up for review is Magical Android. I
actually like this card a lot. For one, it is the
only 5* synchro that we have at the moment. Because
of that, he will for sure be in most extra decks.
Now, if you can go synchro summon crazy, you can get
a lot of life off this card. Bring out a few Thought
Rulerʼs and this card and start to gain life like
crazy. Or if you have a dedicated Psychic deck, this
card will gain you so much more life points.

Magical Android is the sleeper hit of the
Synchro monster brigade. She doesnt come off as all
that useful. Her effect will allow a player to gain
an extra 600 life at the end phase, but theres not
much else. Her effect isnt what makes her shine
though. She is an easy to summon, level 5 synchro
monster which makes her an easy summon when you need
a quick beat stick on the field. A sangan and
psychic teleport can be a quick out if Magical
Android is in your extra deck. Shes also LIGHT which
may entice people even more because of Honest.

We are ending this week with Magical Android. Being
level five makes it a little difficult to Synchro
Summon without building the deck around it. 2400ATK
is solid but is outdone by Goyo Guardian which is
easier to Synchro Summon, has more ATK and a better
effect. You may as well have it in your Extra Deck
on the off chance that you need it.

Magical Android is another great monster that can be
brought out by just one card. Summon Junk Synchron
and then any level two monster will make it a
Magical Android if chosen to. You will gain 600 Life
Points for each Psychic monster on your field at the
end phase. Its an automatic 600 for the Android
herself and if you happen to have anything live, it
would be an extra bonus. She is a Light monster, so
if anyone is attacking Honest can help protect the
Android. Magical Android is good for casual play, I
can see them in Top 16 extra decks, but nothing that
will win a SJC ofr a person.
