Wattgiraffe

This is a far better version of yesterdays card. The Giraffe is a 1200 ATK and 100 DEF LIGHT Thunder monster of the level 4. Normally, his stats are amazingly terrible, as only Honest is support for him. However, his low stats are offset by his rather amazing ability.

When he inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent, your opponent may not activate Spell, Trap or monster effects and neither Spells nor Traps. This is amazingly awesome in that on a clear Field, Gorz cannot be activated, not can Tragoedia. Also, you ropponent may have to waste precious Dimensional Prisons on this card to contain your other monsters.

He cannot be Bottomless Trap Holed, nor will your opponent want to waste removal on this card. Since he is a direct attacker (one fo the best stats of the lot) that only makes him taht more dangerous. Most people feel safe with a Goyo Guardian and 1200 lifepoints, but Giraffe turns that smirk upside down.

Again, I can only think of use of this card in a Battery deck, or maybe Lightsworn, as they can then safely attack with JD and such. It is just such an awkward way to activate an effect that I do not know where it will fit into competetive play. Maybe in combination with Wattcube and Wattwoodpecker it could actually do some pretty cool stuff.

In fact I am going to go so far to say that this is an amazingly fun card to play around with. I just got one a little while ago and very much enjoy the hole sit make sin your opponent's plans. Definitely a great card for casual, and maybe if Watt cards get better we can see what we can shape them into.

Wattgiraffe ...
 
One of the strongest normal summon, non-tribute, direct attackers that come to mind ... 1200 ATK ... Thunder ... and Light ...
 
An interesting monster here. Like yesterday's Watt card, it'd be fun to watch someone try and build a deck around this. Like yesterday's card, the Giraffe paralyzes opponents for a turn (No spell, no trap, no effect monster effects) when a certain condition occurs. In this case, its when u attack directly (his 1st effect) and inflict battle damage. While most often, yesterday's Fox would be stunning ur opponent on THEIR turn, Giraffe will do it on yours. Assuming u get the attack though, u dont have to worry about Sangans, any recruiters, flip effect monsters, or anything. Even things like Stardust shouldnt be able to resist destruction afterwards if u save a spell or trap for it. They wont be able to COTH at the end of your turn, or anything.
 
It's not game breaking by any means, but it is overall a fun card, i think, to play. U'd certainly have to be creative to build a useful deck for these Watt things ... U might even win a few matches while ur at it!
