Earthbound Immortal Chacu Challhua, and I start off
by saying I don't like the Earthbound Immortals. I
think it's one of the worst ideas for an Archtype
ever, I don't care how great the 5D's cartoon makes
them look. Furthermore, we have an Immortal Whale?
Most of the other ones at least look cool, but this
is a threatening Whale...
All right, we have a Level 10 Fish, who is of the
Dark attribute with 2900 attack, odd again for our
Whale Earthbound, and 2400 defense.
Now, only one face-up Earthbound Immortal on the
Field, and it's destroyed if there is no face-up
Field Magic Card.
Now, as par for the course, you can attack directly
with this, and your opponent cannot attack this
card. Once per turn, you can inflict damage to your
opponent equal to this cards defense (2400). If you
do, you can't attack. Also, if this card is in
defense position, your opponent can't attack. I'm
sorry, I think all these cards are crap, and are
only really playable in their own Decks.

Earthbound Immortal
Chacu Challhua …
Uhg … between the Koa’ki Meiru crap and these
Earthbound Immortals … It’s such pain just writing
the name of these monsters!! Let’s call this one
Chacu …
Anyways … Chacu is fairly good. It’s one of the
stronger Immortals – 2900 ATK – so it’ll muscle over
even those 2800 brick houses … it attacks directly,
but unless u are punching for the win, u just don’t
want to leave something THAT strong … or ANYTHING at
ALL on your opponent’s side of the field if u can
avoid it. And if u are scared of what ur opponent
could have facedown in the spell or trap category –
then u don’t have to attack at all, and just use
Chacu’s burn to deliver 1200 points of damage (half
of his 2400 DEF, math-whiz …) each turn till another
option presents itself.
Yeah, not much else to say. If u are dead-set on
playing the Immortals, this would be one of the good
ones to try out and build a deck around.

N o V a
Time to end the week,
with my favorite Earthbound Immortal. Chacu Challhua
was pretty sick in the anime aye? Swimming around
through the satellite. Anyways, Earthbound Immortal
Chacu Challhua is todays Card of the Day, hip hip
hurray. Like all Earthbound Immortals a field spell
is needed and it can attack directly, as well as it
not being able to be selected as an attack target.
2900 Attack means for some seriously decent damage.
If Chacu Challhua is in defense position, your
opponent cannot perform their battle phase. Wow,
thats one sick effect, especially since there is one
other card in Ancient Prophecy that breaks the
defense position AND direct attack effect. Spirit
Burner is an equip spell that lets you switch the
equipped monster into defense position once per
turn, this makes it a possibility to attack
directly, hide in defense position while Chacu
Challhuas effect prevents them from attacking. Thats
one sick combo really, theres only one problem, and
thats the fact you are more than likely going to be
staring down Dust Tornados, Breakers, definately
Heavy Storm and other various spell and trap removal
cards. Chacu Challua has another ability but doesn't
compare to the damage Chacu can do if combined with
Spirit Burner. Chacu while in defense position can
deal damage equal to half of its defense once per
turn but you cant attack the turn that effect is
used. This can be pretty handy too, since you dont
want to go running into a Mirror Force or something.
Chacu Challhua is a humbly welcomed Earthbound
Immortal and im sure someone will find a way to make
him rather playable.
