Metal Copycat exists because Joey used Copycat to copy the effect of Metalmorph; that’s how we got Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon. Copycat was *busted* in the manga and anime. It let you copy any card in the opponent’s graveyard, or presumably on their field too. In the duel with the Paradox brothers, he used it to copy their Riryoku spell. In modern Yugioh terms, it’s like if Transaction Rollback’s on-field effect was attached to a spell card, and could copy spells as well as traps.

so interesting options for the metalmorph stuff: - Bystials I think should 100% be played. They are the perfect fodder for enhanced metalmorph while also being non-engine against GY heavy light/dark decks and being extenders themselves in the deck for having darks themselves (Lights if you include fiendsmith). - Black Metal Dragon is full combo (Obviously) - Red-Eyes Insight and Red-Eyes Chain trap are solid techs as insight can setup Red-Eyes metal retrain since enhanced can summon it from GY and chain works with the monster as well since it has "Red-Eyes" in its name. I don't think these will be used, but I think they're a interesting tech worth testing.

Gonna copypaste my own rant on Morganite from a discord convo: it has all the same problems as the other morganite card the problem isnt that it shuts off handtraps (and also incidentally prevents you from playing any number of decks that need to activate in hand), its that you have to build your deck with 0 hand traps in it or else they become bricks when you *do* activate it, which then means you are at a *massive* disadvantage in games you dont find it, not even getting into the actual debate on if its worth it to play without handtraps, especially in the current state of the game where nonengine is just everything in order for this to see play outside of janky stun decks that dont care about stuff like that because they just draw into 5 floodgates, they need to print a link 1 that adds it to hand so you can guarantee you see it every game. I dont even think a 3rd maindeck card would be enough, 9 copies is a lot but if you're building your whole deck around it to this extent you *need* to see it every game. Not to mention the myriad decks in which this is just straight up unplayable because their playmakers activate from the hand. Horus, Bystials, Tearlament, etc etc

New union guy means we can stop using both toys and galaxy soldier to get CDI.. Or the other new union stuff but I don't know much about them. Main problem being that the best way to summon it in ABC is soldier discarding 2 pieces and the others don't really do the pieces in anyway that isn't just you already having the pieces and just doing the normal.

[@grodon909]

I really like the morganite cards. I think the biggest problem is that they don't work for a lot of decks, but I don't think that makes them bad. The main downsides are that they turn off hand monster effects, and while it's a heavy restriction, I think it's a little overblown and throwing off peoples' perception of the cards. For example, if you're going first using Morganite, it doesn't have a ton of restrictions, because you can hold it until you need the second normal summon, or after you've used necessary hand effects. You can still respond with a lot of defensive options like TTT, Called By, Crossout. Going second it works even better because you can still use your handtraps against the first player. Plus, you can still use cards like Imperm. This makes it a lot more valuable in decks that can use cards like imperm, or that new "ash blossom but trap" they made. For Morganite, then, the REAL downside is that it takes a long time to work, so you need a deck that can benefit from that and there aren't a lot of decks that can do that without being floodgates. I run Morganite in a more casual traptrix deck. It turns off parallel exceed, but that's mostly a problem if you draw into it on later turns. It turns off arachnocampa, so I replaced it with Nephentes which now can generate a good amount of advantage and some interruptions. And the deck is slow enough that it can potentially get benefit from it. I think the cards are fine, but will just require the right (non floodgate) deck to take advantage of the effects.

[@LadyTsunade777]

I suddenly want to experiment with Purrely Morganites. Just replace all the monster hand traps (Ash, Nib, etc) with more Imperms and both Morganites. Draw 2 per turn is great because Purrely wants cards in hand to pitch to Memories, Normal twice is good because you might draw a Purrely and a Purrelyly so you won't even have to discard to a Memory to summon from deck, and an extra attack per monster as well as doubled battle damage really help the EHappy OTK on turn 2 (going second) or turn 3 (going first).

[@galaxyvulture6649]

I just started testing them out and theyre pretty good with a lot of potential options like d link, fiend spam whatever, and other options. So far I built it by using it with fiendsmith, super poly (no mater what they summon its a target) unchained, and light darkness dragon engines (only need 3 cards for it so why not). Can get some pretty neat boards, but god I really wish i could run draw cards.

[@Barduwulf]

The Metalmorph retrains are what I wish /assault mode was in regards to the relative ease of summon and power

[@tyquil825]

[@JetZV]

Dream Absorber does have a use case, but it's definitely weird. Use it on your turn to punish their first hand trap and scare them away from using more hand traps. If you keep it on the field, it builds up power as your opponent counters you, giving you a chance to punch over something big; otherwise, it's a free body to Link climb or XYZ into a Rank 2. It can also summon itself from grave, so it's a free summon whenever your opponent tries to respond with a monster.

[@CommandingVanguard]

The new Morganite might see play in OTK centric blind 2nd lists that don't care about hand effects on their turns. And since you don't have to activate it at the START of your main phase since it's a battle phase centric card, I can see this being used in Scareclaws or maybe other big hitters that don't use hand effects during the battle phase

[@GeneralNickles]

End exalting morganite would be pretty good in a version of Tenpai that plays board breakers instead of hand traps. It let's you pull off the otk while playing through multiple interruptions.

[@lukemacinnes5124]

I like that morganite is technically an archetype now, would be nice to end up with a few more of them, the cards so far are stupid but an archetype designed around them that can really take advantage of them in an interesting way could be cool

[@NerdByAnyOtherName]

New Morganite is weird. They made it so that the benefits only work if you are battling monsters, not direct attacking, otherwise every OTK deck would want it in order double/quadruple their damage output, and OTK decks that neutralize their opponents board instead of clearing still might, that and Crusadia-Kaiju but I don't think that really needs the help. And stun decks really don't need the effect, especially when it is telegraphed and the opponent can play around by just not playing monsters until they can play through existing disruptions to kill you. At the moment I can only really see it being a FBG target in said stun decks to search Time-Tearing

Return this card on the field to hand to equip a union from deck. it's functionally driver + a free body or use it as a discard if you don't need the body.

Seems like any deck that already has a 5+ Fiend or Dragon could run a minimal engine of 2 Metalmorph, 2 Metal monster. You can just swap the monster for the trap, so there's no reason to go 3:1 and you might resolve 2 Metalmorphs. From there if you want it to be more consistent you can then add the ROTA spell. For decks that don't have a 5+ Fiend or Dragon they'd then need Metal Copycat so their minimal engine would probably be 3 of the ROTA, 1 Copycat, 1 Metalmorph, 1 Metal monster.

[@pieoverlord]

The Morganite looks like it'll open up more decks to Going Second OTK strategies. Burn your hand traps on your opponent's turn or before you activate it, then its a free double damage which could be enough to push for game even through disruptions.
