The Hanewata of the Future

Remember that format nine months ago? Remember getting FTK'd by Frogs?

Did you hate that feeling so much that you had Hanewata in your Side Deck?

Well, you might have to re-live that with Fish OTK using the Armory Arm-Colossal Fighter OTK.

But why use Hanewata? Now, we have the awesome power of Extra Veiler!

Not only does Extra Veiler Special Summon itself, providing you with a meatshield, but it reflects all of the burn damage that your opponent's Armory Arms would deal to you!

...

Seriously, Extra Veiler might actually be useful against Fish OTK, if it starts to get out of hand. This is seriously ironic, since Extra Veiler is the first card in Starstrike Blast that I made fun of for being useless. I never thought that this day would come...

So yeah, I'll be sure to look more into the Top 32 when the deck lists are revealed. From the looks of it, this format should prove to be very interesting. Well, at least until May...

    You might want to think through your negative comments before posting them. Used properly, Extra Veiler can be good against Fish OTK whether or not they plan on using the Armory Arm-Colossal Fighter OTK.

    If they are trying to use it, then you wait until they Special Summon the last Synchro Monster they are trying to use for the OTK. Generally, it's the second Armory Arm. Special Summon it then, and they won't have enough resources to perform an OTK through Battle Damage.

    If they move to make an OTK without the burn from Armory Arm, then you can drop Extra Veiler as a shield to hopefully protect you. If you had depleted their resources sufficiently, they won't have enough cards left to bounce it with Brionac, preventing them from performing their OTK.

    Like I said, Extra Veiler might start seeing play only if Fish OTK gets out of hand. That probably won't happen, so we probably won't have to worry about it. If it does happen, and you need a little more Fish OTK-hate in your Side Deck, Extra Veiler will be an option. There are obviously plenty of (better) options, and Extra Veiler is one of them.
