Synchro Blast Wave …
 
Meh. This card ain’t very good. Basically – if/when u have a Synchro monster out, u can destroy 1 monster your opponent control. There is SO much monster destruction and u have SO many options to choose from, that this card really needs to have something special to it to justify its use … or at least no glaring drawback to make u think – “what’s the point?” Smashing Ground is back at 3. People still use Fissure, and god knows what else. SBW’s advantage over these cards is that it has pointed destruction. U destroy the monster that u want to destroy, not the one that has the highest DEF, which is HOPEFULLY the problem Monster that u are trying to get around … as well SBW can destroy a face-down monster as well. That being said – in many situations cards like Smashing Ground that DON’T target are better, as many monsters have effects that negate things that target them. SBW would be useless. But its MAJOR flaw is the necessity of controlling a Synchro monster before u can use it. Most people play Synchros anyway, but decking a card that is only operational at the time that u are controlling a Synchro? … when u have better cards available that can get u the same results whether or NOT u have a Synchro out?
 
Yep. That’s a deal breaker!
