Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 1183

Chapter 1183: Chapter 1183 - Blade Blaster

Shards of data condensed into red trails on the void racetrack, hot light streaks tearing through like invisible chariots.

Its deep green armor glowed amidst overloaded energy, the helmet in a sharp downward triangle, armor petals torn open and radiating like metallic flowers. Its right arm was an advanced composite weapon—black gunmetal, layered barrels, spewing golden energy blades like continuous ion streams. Silver blades popped from both sides of its waist; in motion, they became a whirlwind of steel.

[T.G. Blade Blaster, ATK: 3300]

A historic first: the earliest Accel Synchro monster in Yu-Gi-Oh! anime—T.G. Blade Blaster!

"It finally appears: Accel Synchro Monster," Kira chuckled.

In the anime, Blade Blaster was formidable.

Its main effect: whenever affected by Spell/Trap cards, you could discard a card to negate that effect.

Yes, any time Blade Blaster was affected; but the print card was nerfed to only work if Blade Blaster is specifically the target. Quite the downgrade.

Additionally, in the anime, Blade Blaster could banish itself during the opponent’s turn, avoiding attacks or destruction, returning next turn.

The card version required banishing a "Tech Genus" from the grave as a cost, weakening its usefulness. The anime’s free banish made Blade Blaster nearly impossible to remove: even if you KO’d its duelist, it might still hang around like a cockroach.

Moreover, anime Blade Blaster had a further unique effect: if destroyed in battle, you could immediately Special Summon the Synchro material monsters used to summon it, then perform Accel Synchro again if possible—even in your opponent’s turn.

Simply put, even if the opponent defeated Blade Blaster with a higher attack monster, it just returned as its Synchro materials, ready to Accel Synchro again—provided, of course, you had monsters left in your Extra Deck.

Offense aside, its defense was unbelievably tough.

"Go, T.G. Blade Blaster!" Antinomy declared. "Attack ’Van’Dalgyon the Dark Dragon Lord’!"

Blade Blaster’s thruster blazed and slashed Van’Dalgyon clean in two.

[Kira, LP 3500 → LP 3000]

Van’Dalgyon was destroyed. Antinomy frowned, glancing at his opponent’s still-set back row.

Could that be a trap that responds to attacks?

But even if it was, he had full faith in his Blade Blaster.

He set a card and ended his turn.

"Set a card, turn end."

Kira drew his card.

Gazing at the menacing Blade Blaster, he sighed, "Near-invincible against Spells and Traps, overwhelming power, can banish itself at will—what a troublesome foe you’ve summoned.

Well, there’s nothing for it but to shore up my defenses and see what happens next."

He set a monster face-down.

"I set a monster in face-down Defense Position."

Then he set another back row card.

"And I set a card, end my turn."

Antinomy pondered.

Is that really just a defensive monster and a trap?

Or does it hide a trap within a trap?

"My turn! Draw!"

He glanced over his hand and quickly made up his mind.
