Metapulsar, Split Pegasus
Well, nice to see something that's a bit less fuss.
Split Pegasus, when face-up in the G-Zone during your
turn, gives all your Zodiac Time Beasts in the front row
1000 power. His second skill is ACT and counterblasts 1
and flips a card in the G Zone face-up, sending a
rear-guard to the bottom of the deck to call 2 Zodiac
Time Beasts from the deck a Grade lower than the one you
returned...as long as your heart card is a Zodiac Time
Beast.
...eh, it's alright. Obviously not meant to be anything
other than external setup for ZTB, whether it's 2k to
the front row flipping himself, or flipping other Gear
Dragons for a next-turn Gear Groovy. My beef is more to
do with how running a pure ZTB deck just isn't appealing
because there really isn't anything worth using over the
established Melem/Time Leap strategy, because I'm sorry,
but you must admit their front-row options are pretty
lacking.
Nonetheless, it's worth getting if only so that it may
age well, but not worth running over Metallica Phoenix,
who's more forgiving over what your heart card is,
frankly.

Alright, imma start off with the positives. Split
Pegasus stacks of course, so you can get at maximum an
extra 4k to your ZTBs in the front row if you're running
four Pegasus for some reason. Also, you could just flip
over Pegasus by any other means (like Metallica Phoenix)
and start getting the continuous buff. ZTBs themselves
get buffs, so the stacking numbers could force 5k more
shield from the columns if you get the right units out.
Taking one unit and turning it into two is very Paladin-esque
and should ensure that you have your board as optimal as
you can get it.
Now, the negatives aren't even contained within Pegasus'
design. It's the fact that currently MelemTickTock.dek
has a more devastating first Stride turn with Metallica
Phoenix than ChronojetZTB.dek or ChronofangZTB.dek does
with Pegasus.
...but whatever. Y'all got on-hit restanding Vanguard
pressure from rearguards now, and a dope ZTB PG. Do
whatever you want.
And yes, I'm willing to put my foot in my mouth if/when
ZTBs start getting support that's more effective than
Tick Tock and Melem.
