Card of the Week #2: Geargiganto X

2 Level 4 Machine-Type monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card;
 add 1 Level 4 or lower Machine-Type monster from your Deck or Graveyard to your hand. 
When this card leaves the field: 
You can Special Summon 1 Level 3 or lower "Geargia" monster from your Graveyard.

Random Rulings:

Detaching 1 Xyz Material is a cost to activate the effect that adds 1 Machine-Type monster to the hand. Also, it doesn't target.

The effect that Special Summons a level 3 or lower "Geargia" monster from the Graveyard targets.

If this card Leaves the field during a chain 2 or higher or during the resolution of an effect, its effect cannot be activated.

Explanation for these rulings are really simple, the first one is, of course cost, it is easy with the "new" card text to notice. Second part of the first effect is obvious, too, cards in deck can't be targetted, no matter what.
Second one needs no explanation, it targets, nothing else.
Third one instead, says that if he is chain link 2 or more, he will miss the timing. This is for sure the most important effect. Basically if you're playing AGAINST this, you just need to activate a random card and then Compulosry Evacuation Device, raigeki break, PWWB and so on. If you're playing WITH this, you need to keep this in mind as a normal ruling. Why does this happens? Simple, it has an When...You can effect, means that it is an optional effect that can lose the timing.

Ok, now, where and how to use this card.
Where: obviously in the original deck, a geargia deck, but it works expecially well in gadget, even with geargia support, in karakuris, geargiakuris if you want, or, more generally, in machine deck that play some level 4 machine-type.
How: it searches pretty much everything in a deck that can easily summon this. you can search geargia in a geargia deck, expecially accel. It can search gadgets to continue the loop and solidify it (if you played that, and you should have, you noticed that sometimes you summon a gadget and you have no more the next gadget. Well, with this you can combo no matter what, summon two and search the one after the one you should have searched for). It searches machina gearframe in a machina deck to search machina fortress. It searches random birdman in random decks and in karakuris it can search pretty much everything.

This card is pretty much broken, with tinplate goldfish it can combo greatly in gadgets:

NS Tinplate Goldfish and SS Gadget

Search for a gadget, then XYZ into Geargiganto X

Eff Geargiganto X, search for goldfish

Next turn, repeat totally the loop.

You can even go into Emeral to reshuffle materials and draw

This is a 2-card combo, easy and great, a geargiganto per turn isn't something you don't want. If one of them survives for more than a turn (it will likely happen), you can search with him too, making crazy comboes with geargiaccel and can help summoning Emeral to loop again.

Now let's see the card as it is:

He's a Geargia Monster, combes well with Geargiaccel, search for him and fastly SS to xyz again with another monster.

EARTH, not that lot of supports.

Machine-Type, there are some good supports for them, just to say one limiter removal allows for crazy OTKs.

XYZ monster, re-summonable via XYZ reborn.

Detach just 1 XYZ material, means that XYZ reborn comboes well with this.

Not that specific materials needed, just 2 level 4 machine monsters, they aren't even harder to summon.

Not that specific search, can search for every level 4 or lower machine-type monster, means that you can search even material to summon a second one of himself.

Can retrieve even from the grave, not only from the deck.

Can SS only Geargia monster from the grave, not that bad though, you can go into geargiano to summon a random one from the grave, but without effect.

2300 ATK, a lot of popular monsters run easily over him, tour guide makes leviathan easy and splashable, but you can easily go into other monsters like utopia and then do this.

1500 DEF, if book'd he isn't a big wall, but can defend from something.

Overall, awesome card with awesome art, if you can play it, do it. Though he isn't really splashable.

This was the second card for this label, hope you liked that. Stay Tuned, I'm going to post something tomorrow or today itself.
