However, even if the summoning cost can be a big loss of resources, the results can become worth the effort. Some monsters pretty much lead the entire Duel upon arrival, while others can work along the resources spent for the summon. While nowadays very few nomi monsters are seen in competitive play, those that stay in current Decks obviously provides some strong results to their user.“Eater of Millions” is a nomi monster that gained some prevalence in some Decks thanks to its diverse abilities and uses. “Eater of Millions” can only be summoned by banishing face-down five or more cards from our hand, field, or Extra Deck. “Eater of Millions” cannot be tributed whatsoever as well not become a material for Fusion, Synchron, and/or Xyz Summons. However, “Eater of Millions” stats will gain 100 for each face-down banished card in the game (Including those spent in its summon), and when battling a monster it will immediately banish it face-down before Damage Step. Overall, despite in most cases not having impressive stats to deal damage with “Eater of Millions” can take care of many powerful monsters on its own as virtually nullifies most ways to recover it, and despite some other flaws it has some other valuable uses in builds able to work arround its mechanics.With a quite heavy summon condition “Eater of Millions” won’t be suitable for most Decks out there, but those capable to add it to their strategy they can obtain a monster pretty much free to create havoc and other goals arround it. Since “Eater of Millions” gives us the option to banish cards in our Extra Deck, themes that barely depend on it can easily add this monster and pretty much summon it for free. By running three copies of “Eater of Millions”, we can spend all fifteen cards (Or more if we manage some Pendulum Monsters) as the Duel progresses as we focus more on our monsters in the Main Deck. Overall is extremely preferable to spend our Extra Deck on summoning “Eater of Millions”, as spending cards in our hand or field will become huge losses for our future turns.The main goal of “Eater of Millions” is to enter into battle against other monsters, as its effect will automatically banish them with very few chances for the opponent to get them back. This fortunately makes managing its stats not much of a priority, as despite its own summon (And other copies) as well cards like “Pot of Desires” and “Evenly Matched” assisting this effect “Eater of Millions” will be more focused on battling other monsters rather assuring a solid direct attack. However, the cost of this summon and other banishing mechanics can assist other cards arround similar goals, from increasing the stats of “Gren Maju Da Eiza” to recycling cards by “Necroface” as gets stronger. Some Decks like those arround Malefic will solely use the Extra Deck as currency, pressuring the opponent as they swarm the board with “Eater of Millions” and powerful creatures such as “Malefic Cyber End Dragon”. Finally, despite the several limitations of “Eater of Millions” in a material role it doesn’t stop us from using it for Link Summons, so we can spare some Extra Deck monsters for its arrival and follow with one of many Link Monsters along the right preparatives.“Eater of Millions” might have some heavy demerits to become a staple choice in most Decks, as even though we can spend Extra Deck cards on its arrival not every player will work with filler cards for this cost alone. But those that barely or never touch their Extra Deck will gain a free Special Summon, capable of banishing any monster in battles despite its poor stats in most Duels, as well work in Link Summons with the monsters we’ll prioritize in our Extra Deck. While “Eater of Millions” has an assured spot in various builds that only need a few or no Extra Deck monsters to play with, just keep on mind that its battle effect is available once per turn as thus the opponent might bluff or sacrifice one of their monsters to take down and deal high damage. Nonetheless, if your playstyle barely requires the abuse of the Extra Deck like many popular Decks nowadays, “Eater of Millions” will provide strong results in one way or another with barely any expenses for it.Personal Rating: A-+ Gains 100 ATK and DEF for each face-down banished card+ One per turn banishes face-down any monster that battles with it+ Pretty much a free nomi summon in Decks that don’t rely in the Extra Deck- Poor stats in most situations- Cannot be tributed or used as material except for Link Summon- The opponent might bluff its battle effect -- source link
