Absolute Powerforce introduces the “Dark Synchro” monsters used by the Dark Signers in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s animated series. These monsters can only be Synchro Summoned by using a DARK-Attribute Tuner monster. There are two Dark Synchro Monsters in Absolute Powerforce.
When you attack with either of these Synchro Monsters, your opponent can’t activate any Spell or Trap Cards until the end of the Damage Step. That makes them immune to cards like “Dimensional Prison” and “Magic Cylinder.” Each Dark Synchro Monster has another way to protect itself too!

Since your opponent can’t attack “Battle Fader” after you Special Summon it, there’s a good chance it will still be on the field when you start your next turn. Even though “Battle Fader” has 0 ATK and 0 DEF, there’s a lot you can do with it.

When “Gorz the Emissary of Darkness” was first released, many Duelists saw it as the ultimate defense. When a Duelist had no cards on the field and took damage from an attack, Gorz would step in and Summon an “Emissary of Darkness Token” to defend the Duelist from more attacks. Almost a year later, Duelists started using “Tragoedia” with the same purpose. “Tragoedia” doesn’t Special Summon an additional token, but it’s easier to Summon than Gorz. A Duelist can Special Summon “Tragoedia” from his hand whenever he takes Battle Damage, even if he has cards on the field. Then, “Tragoedia” can defend the Duelist from other attacks that the opponent might be planning.
Starting March 1st, Gorz and “Tragoedia” are both Limited cards and Duelists are looking for new ways to protect themselves. Fortunately, Absolute Powerforce gives us a monster that puts up an even better defense than Gorz and “Tragoedia.” That monster is “Battle Fader.”
