Cynet Storm————————————&mdas

Cynet Storm————————————————All Linked monsters on the field gain 500 ATK/DEF. Link Summons of Link Monsters cannot be negated. Once per Chain, if you take 2000 or more battle or effect damage: You can shuffle the face-down cards in your Extra Deck, excavate the top card, and if it is a Cyberse Link Monster, Special Summon it. Otherwise, return it to the Extra Deck.————————————————Can Be Found In: Powercode Link Structure Deck (SDPL-EN021)Link Monsters immediately became a must have for any strategy involving the Extra Deck. With the Extra Monster Zone limiting the abuse of Special Summons like in previous years, players are forced to start many games by aiming for a Link Summon. Thanks to not only their effects but also arrows providing additional areas for our Extra Deck, Link Monsters is a commitment of our Extra Deck’s space to achieve the swarming goals from the past. But although players are obligated to run several Link Monsters instead of other kinds of creatures, that doesn’t mean that aren’t weak on their own or in company.“Cynet Storm” is a Field Spell based in some of the events occurring in the VRAINS series, and being all about Link Monsters obviously provides assistance to these cards. While active any monster linked by a Link Monster’s arrow will gain a 500 ATK and DEF boost, while any kind of Link Summon will be protected from any negation effects. But “Cynet Storm” provides a one of a kind effect if we take atleast 2000 damage, as will shuffle the face-down cards in our Extra Deck to then excavate the top. If the shown card is a Cyberse Link Monster “Cynet Storm” will immediately summon it to our field, but otherwise will remain in the Extra Deck. In resume, while a stat increase and protecting our Link Summon from recurring counters are valuable option in a time Link Monsters are highly prevalent, “Cynet Storm” summoning effect can act as either a comeback tool or as a powerful card to shortcut the arrival of many powerful Cyberse monsters in some high risk high reward setups.With the assitance of recurring searching effects like “Terraforming” and “Set Rotation” among others, “Cynet Storm” won’t take long to make its pressence noticeable. Given the importance of Link Monsters nowadays, many Decks can benefit of “Cynet Storm” as soon they start Link Summoning with any of their gimmicks and mechanics. But there’s no rush to bring our own Link Monsters, as if the opponent controls one and is pointing our monster(s) will assure the stat boost from “Cynet Storm” to overcome them in battle. Decks that heavily invest on Link Summon will welcome its protective effect, keeping even the most expensive summons safe from common defenses like “Solemn Strike”. But while stat increases and protection are always welcome in any Deck, “Cynet Storm” ability to randomly summon Link Monsters can create interesting strategies arround it. Although the premise is to respond against opponent attacks and effects, “Cynet Storm” can trigger this ability by our own cards making us enough damage to follow with a summon from the Extra Deck. No matter if is summoning monsters like “Grinder Golem” to the opposite field to attack it with weaker monsters, and/or working along effects like “Ring of Destruction” that will damage us in the process, it will follow with the potential arrival of powerful Link Monsters like “Topologic Gumblar Dragon” and “Topologic Bomber Dragon” without the need of spending on materials and resources.“Cynet Storm” might be seen as a defensive measure in most circumstances, with an stat boost that can take advantage of opponent’s Link Monsters as well protecting Link Summons from being negated. However, “Cynet Storm” unique effect to summon Link Monsters in response of damage not only can keep the opponent under control, but fearless players can risk their Life Points if that means summoning powerful monsters wihtout spending several summons on a single Link Monster. Although “Cynet Storm” has the potential to lead Duels under Decks heavily focused on Link Summons, it suffers of some clearly flaws. The ability to increase stats and protect Link Summons also benefits the opponent, and with the popularity of Link Monsters in the current conditions of the game it can easily backfire. The ability to summon a Link Monster on the other hand will require a specialized Extra Deck arround it, not only assuring we pick a Link Monster by random chance but also that is Cyberse-Type and with stats solid enough for any situation is summoned into. “Cynet Storm” is far from being a prevalent card in Cyberse Decks or even its own build, but with a flexible purpose and the potential to summon several Link Monsters the more damage we take is worth experimenting with its possibilities.Personal Rating: B+ All monsters linked by Link Monster(s) gain 500 ATK and DEF+ Link Summons cannot be negated while active on the field+ If we take 2000 or more damage we might randomly summon a Cyberse Link Monster+ Able to work with cards making us take damage to summon Link Monsters with- The opponent will benefit by some of its effects- Requires a Main Deck and Extra Deck to exploit its summoning effect- The Link Monster we will summon if any is chosen at random -- source link
