New Amazoness Hotness

July 27th, 2010

Originally hailing from the time when the game was young, the Amazoness monsters are making a comeback thanks to Duelist Revolution. Check out some of the new Amazoness cards you might be able to get your hands on at the Duelist Revolution Sneak Peek.

Amazoness Village is a fantastic Field Spell that boosts all “Amazoness” monsters by 200 ATK and lets you immediately replace any of your “Amazoness” monsters when they’re destroyed and sent to the Graveyard. Once per turn, when your Amazoness monster is destroyed by battle or by a card effect, Amazoness Village lets you Special Summon an Amazoness from your Deck with a Level equal to or lower than the destroyed monster’s Level. That means you can even Special Summon another copy of your destroyed Amazoness!

Use Amazoness Village to Special Summon another Amazoness Chain Master after stealing a card from your opponent’s hand, or another Amazoness Swords Woman after the first one redirects the damage from that battle to your opponent. You can also use Amazoness Village to swap your monster for whichever one is best-suited for your current needs.

 Free monsters are good. Free monsters with ATK boosts are even better. Free monsters with ATK boosts that work alongside cards like Amazoness Archers are the best.

 

Amazoness Village can even Special Summon some of the new Amazonesses in Duelist Revolution, like Amazoness Scouts. Since Amazoness Scouts is only a Level 2 monster, you can grab it with Amazoness Village when any of your other “Amazoness” monsters are destroyed. Amazoness Scouts can be Tributed during either player’s turn to protect your Amazoness monsters from Spells, Traps, and Monster Effects. It’s a great card to use with Amazoness Queen, a 2400 ATK monster that protects each of your Amazoness monsters in battle.

 Having Amazoness Swords Woman on the field alongside Amazoness Queen gives you a nearly inexhaustable source of damage.

 

Amazoness Queen will protect Amazoness Scouts from battle. Use Amazoness Scouts to protect Amazoness Queen from destruction effects.

The new Trap Card, Amazoness Shamanism, lets you completely change your battle strategy on the fly. Amazoness Shamanism lets you destroy all face-up Amazoness monsters you control and replace them with Level 4 or lower Amazoness monsters from your Graveyard in Defense Position.

One useful thing to do with it is to clear your field and load it up with copies of Amazoness Scouts either during battle or on your opponent’s End Phase. You can follow up by Summoning your Amazoness Queen back to the field with Amazoness Willpower to keep your monsters safe from destruction! Keeping Amazoness Queen on the field with Amazoness Scouts ready to protect her will make it tough for your opponent to take down your tribe of “Amazoness” monsters.

 The Amazoness Scouts + Amazoness Queen combo is simply brutal, and this card makes it easier to set up.

 

There’s also a new Equip Spell Card for “Amazoness” monsters in Duelist Revolution. Amazoness Heirloom can be equipped to any “Amazoness” monster. Once per turn, Amazoness Heirloom prevents the equipped monster from being destroyed by battle. It also lets that monster destroy anything it attacks, after damage calculation!

That even allows it to destroy monsters like XX-Saber Emmersblade and Mystic Tomato before their effects can activate, just like Red Dragon Archfiend does. With Amazoness Heirloom equipped to an Amazoness, it can take down just about anything. Equip it to Amazoness Swords Woman and your opponent will even take damage when you attack and destroy a stronger monster using Amazoness Heirloom.

 The effect that protects your Amazoness from destruction works once during each player's turn, so its doubly difficult to rid the field of the equipped amazoness. If it is destroyed, Amazoness Village can replace it and Hidden Armory can reclaim Amazoness Heirloom!

Amazoness Village, Amazoness Scouts, Amazoness Queen, Amazoness Shamanism, and Amazoness Heirloom are just a few of the new Amazoness cards you’ll soon be able to get your hands on. You can find them and many more Amazonesses at the upcoming Duelist Revolution Sneak Peek.
