The supporters

Yeah so this is the last part of the True Six Samurai review.Today I'll tell you guys about the support part of the True Six Samurai.
First we got "Shien's yoriko".
*/Warrior/Earth
Tuner/Effect/300/700

"When a "Six Samurai" monster you control battles, you can send this card from your hand to the Graveyard during damage calculation. That monster cannot be destroyed by battle during this turn."

A younger version of "Shien's footsoldier".Not too good since being a level 1 monster.
But its ability to discard itself and prevent one of your "Six Samurai" monster be destroyed by battle that turn is quite good.Also being a tuner can be a good treat.

Next we got "True Six Samurai-Shien".
*****/Warrior/Dark
Synchro/Effect/2500/1400

"1 Warrior-Type Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner "Six Samuraimonsters
Once per turn, when your opponent activates aSpell/Trap Card, you can negate the activation of that card and destroy it. If this face-up card would be destroyed, you can destroy another "Six Samuraimonster you control instead."



The synchro counterpart and a younger version of "Great Shogun Shien".Bear the same ATK power and similar effects makes this card powerful enough to negate one of your opponent's spell/trap card.
This card can be easily synchro summoned by using "True Six Samurai-Kageki" + "True Six Samurai-Kagemusha".And even possible to bring a Lockdown if you have a "Great Shogun Shien" in your hand. Because both "True Six Samurai-Kageki" and "True Six Samurai-Kagemusha" are "Six Samurai" monster,you could special summon "Great Shogun Shien" first then tuned into "True Six Samurai Shien",and giving you 2 2500 attacker plus a spell/trap lockdown!

The others are spell and trap cards,and we got 4 of them!
The first one is "Shien's smoke signal".

"Add 1 Level 3 or lower "Six Samurai" monster from your Deck to your hand."

A weaker version of RotA for "Six Samurai" only since you only can add a level 3 or lower "Six Samurai" monster from your deck.But this is enough for you to set up the combo for summoning "True Six Samurai Shien"!

Next we got "Asceticism of the Six Samurai"!

"Select 1 face-up "Six Samurai" monster you control. Special Summon 1 "Six Samurai" monster with a different name and an equal ATK from your Deck. During this turn's End Phasedestroythe selected monster."

A new support for the "Six Samurai" archetype!It's effect allows us to select one "Six Samurai" we control and special summon 1 "Six Samurai" from your deck that has the same ATK with the one we select,but different name.Basically good enough to get cards like "True Six Samurai-Kizan" or "True Six Samurai-Enishi" on the field,and giving you more counters for "Gateway of the Six" and "Six Samurai United".

Third we have "Musakani no Magatama".

"Activate only if you control a face-up "Six Samurai" monster. Negate the activation of an opponent's Spell CardTrap Card or Effect Monster's effect that would destroy a card(s), and destroy it."

Being a counter trap means that this card only can be negated by other counter trap!This card can negate card effect(monster/spell/trap) that destroy card(s) on your side of the field when you control a "Six Samurai" monster!This way you could prevent your precious card from destruction such as "Gateway of the Six" or even "Solemn Warning"!

The last one is "Residence of the Six".

"Each time a "Six Samurai" monster is Normal orSpecial Summoned, place 1 Bushido Counter on this card. Face-up monsters your opponent controls lose 100 ATK for each Bushido Counteron this card."


Basically not a really good card since it is a field card which seldom to be used by a "Six Samurai" player,but by using the effect of "Gateway of the Six" you can even get bushido counters from this card!.Each time you summon a "Six Samurai" monster,this card gain 1 "bushido counter".For every "bushido counter" on this card,every monster on your opponents field lose 100 ATK points and also providing you with more bushido counters!

And that's all for the review.Sorry for the late wave of review since I got so many assignment lately but I'll keep on improving this blog!
Oh!And we got a new writer here and he's the one who wrote about Mizuho and Shinai.
Welcome,Tri-Edge!

  1. Residence of the Six is actually a good card....in the Side Deck.

    It can break Necrovalleys (and considering that GKs are getting popularity lately) or Future Visions if someone used it :P
