Card of the Week #7: Geartown

Both players can Tribute Summon "Ancient Gear" monsters with 1 less Tribute than required. When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard: You can Special Summon 1 "Ancient Gear" monster from your hand, Deck, or Graveyard.

Random Rulings:
1.Typhoon chained to geartown's activation, will prevent the summon of the ancient gear monster.
2.Solemn Warning on Geartown's activation will make geartown's effect work.
3.Magical Hats will make Geartown's effect work, even if destroyed by battle or by an effect.
4.Using ancient fairy dragon's effect to destroy this card, will make this card's effect work, but if you choose to search, you won't be able to summon from geartown's effect.
5.If Geartown is on the field and:
you activate a new field spell card, you won't be able to use geartown's effect;
you set a new field spell card, you will be able to use geartown's effect;
your opponent activates a new field spell card, you will be able to use geartown's effect.

Explanations? Yeah, I'll do them.
Number 1, pretty easy, Chain Link 1, geartown, chain link 2, typhoon, resolving backward, typhoon'll destroy geartown, while geartown is still resoling. Last thing to happen is geartown resolving, not destroying, then you won't be able to use its effect.
Number 2, same thing as before, only that since warning/judgment/other negating-and-destroying cards, negate geartown, so it will be like: chain link1, geartown, chain link 2, warning, resolving backward, warning will negate geartown and destroying it, and geartown won't resolve since it is negated, so last thing to happen is geartown's destruction.
Number 3 doesn't need explanation, is only like that, while number 4 implies missing of timing, like number 1, gaining 1000 lps and destroying happen at the same time, so it'll work, but if you decide to search, last thing to happen will be searching, since it happens after that, and geartown will miss the timing.
Number 5 is easy, when you activate a field spell, you first destroy your field, then activate the new one, so you'll miss the timing, if you set it, you first destroy it, then set the new one, but since the new one hasn't nothing to resolve being face-down, you'll be able to use geartown's effect, when your opponent activates a field, he'll first activate his own field, then destroy yours, so geartown's destruction'll be the last thing happening.

Let's see the card, objectively, closely:
-Field Spell card, indipendent from the other spell/trap cards, as it'll have his own zone where to be played, and you'll never risk it being clogged, since you can destroy the previous spell card. Being a field, it's easiest to be destroyed, and you'll be able to use succesfully its effect easily. If your opponent doesn't know well this card's rulings, he will either solemn geartown triggering its effect, or WON'T chain typhoon to this card's activation, because he'll think that that would trigger its effect.
-First effect that most players forgot, is sometimes needed, you could even normal summon that gadjiltron with only a tribute, if you dont have anything to destroy geartown in that very moment.

This card is a great one, just destroy it and summon a 3000 attacker that won't permit your opponent activating mirror force/dimensional prison while attacking.
I have a project with this card, I won't talk about it because I want it to be a surprise, so the post may be shorter than expected.

I talked about this card in the scrap post, it had a lot of synergy in it, going into dragon, getting another big attacker.
This card is used in one of my favourite actual decks too, GearMaleficAntimeta, a deck that uses necrovalley to control and to summon gadjiltron with geartown, while keeping controlling the field with malefic if you don't draw into geartown. Having 5/6 field spell, will let you use 2/3 terraforming and never run out of targets, except expecially unlucked hands. Being stardust level 8, and gadjiltron too, you could sometimes go into some random and emergency rank 8 monsters. I think I'll post one day this deck, even if the actual build isn't even mine, since I'm not playing it in these days, I haven't changed nothing from the original one, took from a pojo user I'll be sure to ask his permission and credit him, but right now I don't remember his nick, LOL.

Another popular and good way to use it is by using Black Salvo, mainly to summon BRD to wipe out the field, destroying geartown and summoning gadjiltron while having a clear field, OR going into ancient fairy dragon if your opponent hasn't nothing dangerous or you have a good field you don't want to ruin, you'll get 1000 lps and a new beatstick, while summoning a 2100/3000 monster.

However this card's effect is not limited to gadjiltron, you could even use in a less competitive build, magical hats to summon two ancient gear of the same level and going into XYZ, mainly Gadjltron Chimera as level 6, going into the beloved and loop-generator ptolemys or the hated bounzer.

Well, sorry for the little post, but I'm going to post another thing that involves this, like I said before, so I didn't want to waste some resources for the other post in this one, if I did that it would have be boring reading the same things twice.
