The trick with Voivode is that you're never tributing your own monsters to summon it. You use ghost on your opponent's turn with Sucker and Zombie World to tribute your opponent's guys for it on their turn.

@@BramLastname honestly, i’ve used it going second before too just hard summoning it. 2 tributes is a lot, but it represents zombie vampire + sheridan by itself on summon, since you can steal two guys out the grave and use one and voivode to make zombie vamp, then get one of their guys off zombie vamp and use the two remaining stolen guys to make sheridan and steal something else, so even then it’s pretty good.

What people don’t know about Voivode is that it actually could negate a lot more than it normally does. When activating something like Ash Blossom, for example, the opponent would first declare Ash’s activation, then pay its cost (sending itself to the GY). By the time that is done, Voivode’s conditions then check to see if Ash met them; because the opponent activated "Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring", and now there is an "Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring" in the GY, Voivode is allowed to negate the activation, as it checks after the cost is paid. This also works on monsters in the GY that activate their effects there (BA monsters) or Lonefire-style effects (SE monsters) for example. Be sure to read your colons, people, and check the text properly!

Voivode is not a Turn 1 monster. It's meant to push for game on Turn 2 or 3, or as a potential interrupt on your opponent's turn (with Ghost) by stealing resources from their graveyard. That it negates their effects doesn't really matter because youre always likely to overlay them for Sheridan or Zombie Vampire The negate effect also works on handtraps like Ash and Veiler, as theyre in the grave at resolution The two tribute requirement would be a pain, but cards like Domain and Sorcerer and Sucker allow you to bring it out with less cost or no cost at all

7:11 most people do not do the combo correctly. Paired with Vampire Sorcerer, you normal summon without tribute for free on your opponent's turn. 1 NS vampire Ghost pitching bat/dog; add vampire sorcerer, send bat/dog. 2. Activate the first bat/dog, sending sorcerer, add voivode/ spell trap 3 activate the opposite, sending Ghost to grave, add voivode/spell trap. 4. Continue onwards. If you're opponent has interruptions, you banish both Ghost and Sorcerer to summon voivode, take two monsters and convert on Undead Vampire.

I enjoy vampires, it was the first deck I crafted and had a lot of fun reaching diamond with them because of my unorthodox method of using them (aka, didn't watch a combo Vampire combos video and only did what zombie combos i could with the decent knowledge i had). Now, I would love for them to be made better, especially since there is a brand new Zombie support card coming, but I know that ain't happening. All we would need is a link 4 vampire that has all the best of the archetype's abilities. LP gain for damage, special summon destroyed opponent's monster to your field, and the last one could be one of these three options 1. add Fraulein to hand every end phase from deck or gy (maybe banished too) could him "Vampire Suitor" in this case with the idea he's the strongest and there for the best fit to wed for the young vampire princess 2. Negate the effect of 1 card activated on field and destroy all cards of that type in your opponent's hand and on their field. (an evolved version of the "let your opponent choose 1 designated card in the deck" with a twist of being a possible play to negate your own card if you know your opponent's deck) 3. All monsters summoned from the gy become zombie monsters. (more of an aesthetic choice considering Sucker turns an opponent's monster it summons into a zombie by that effect, comboing the idea that it allows you to tribute your opponents monsters if they special summon too many from grave for Ghost to summon over) but if you want it to be a stronger choice, maybe add an effect that zombie monsters can't attack vampire monsters while the link 4 is on field (or in gy if you want to be evil enough)

@shiftyshitter348Күн бұрын
Kinda weird to be so adamant that Voivode is a bad card, it needing to tribute two monsters is the only bad thing about it, that's why Sucker has the first line of text on her effect, you're meant to cheat that, it is good going second if you can get the effect to immediately make a Zombie Vampire or a Sheridan, but the negate is also deceptively good and if you're going first you can just special him to use the negate. Also, of course you also have the "quick effect lava golem" if you have ZW up with Sucker and Ghost in GY, it's a strong play since it bypasses any sort of protection bar being unaffected (literally just because then they won't be zombies, otherwise it would), even though it's kinda meme, it's an option. I for once don't see why you'd wanna play Shadow Vampire, a Tour Guide on a tribute summon is not good, he's the always the card that does the least when it's the only vampire I draw and the fact it's a level 5 makes it so it's only function is being an extra body to link off, which you can get without needing a tribute summon. Now a thing I don't get is people that play vampire never use the continuous spell that gives you an extra normal, but this deck doesn't have much gas unless you're milling like crazy and have a bunch of GY extenders so getting that extra normal makes a difference a lot of the time and after you activated it you can just send it as a cost for the low levels. As a final note, one thing that vampires are good at is using the Ghost Fusion engine, it gives you a one card Beatrice + a draw + another foolish for a zombie, since Beatrice is ZW setup by herself that can help extending past interruption, but it also requires playing more zombie cards which aren't always good to draw, however, with Horus there's usually ways to discard then for value.
@charnor272711 сағат бұрын
another thing about domain, the continous spell, you get that normal summon as long as the effect resolves, even if it leaves field. this means you can use domain, then send it off for the cost of familier/retainer or even ghost in a pinch, and still get that extra normal summon.

Vampire Voivode is mostly used for the fact it's a lvl 8 special summonable monster for your lvl 8 xyz as a 1 copy with a negate until its used with an opps monster. Its other effects sometimes come up to tribute their field as well which isn't useless but sure, lackluster. Overall though as a 1 copy I've noticed it perform well multiple times for me, enough that when I didn't have it, I still found times I wanted to summon it.
