Anyone thinkin that cyber ogre will make an impact on the meta, the ability to negate an attack an boost ur attack by 2000 is impressive. and tributing is no prblem with treeborn running around. Plus they have their own lil trap card that can special summon them from your hand. Is this a start of another machine subtype deck that can be playable? I'd defn give it a shot. Any thoughts

I'll give it a shot but I'm not too sure. I can easily see the potential in the card but the effect is very situational. I love the fusion though. It can easily beat any commonly played monster and most of the uncommon ones too. I have never been able to get my hands on a Metalmorph so I am looking forward to this card.

I might want to use it i mean it has on powerful effect, the effect does not leave until the end of the next time that it attacks. Now thats a good effect but the draw back is that you need one of its "brothers" in you hand to use the effect at all. The best thing would be to use this in three but then agian it would be bad if you top decked all 3!

Yes you are right that it is worth a look it could also give some field pesence if you use it just right. Also that quote is from Bill&Teds Bogus Adventure right? That was an awsome movie.

I donīt really have hope for Cyber Ogre 1 or 2 hit hard when CDIP realeses its "fury" next month. A tribute summon is a trib summon.

Yes, and look at all the support we have to make that negligable. Treeborn Frog, Brain Control, Twin-Headed Behemoth, recruiters like Mystic Tomato. They even gave the card a support card to make the Tribute basically nothing (Byroad Sacrifice).

It needs a deck built around it, but it can be a very powerful card. Generation Shift would help get another one into your hand (they Smash your ogre, you chain, then revive the first). If you get Cyber Ogre's effect off and activate Limiter Removal, you have a 7800 behemoth sitting on your field. Nothing in this game is gonna walk away from that kind of power, and the opponent's LP will sink faster then the Titanic. I'm not even going to go into direct attacks...

As for the Fusion, you can Stein it, and it's better than Cyber End for dealing with ATK position monsters. It can and will run over anything that is commanly played today, and will create a fair amount of damage thanks to the ATK boost.

Competitive at the top? Most likely not. That does not mean that the card sucks (though I'd put money on a certain CotD writer saying it does).

I'll be making a new Cyber deck using the Ogres, but really as only a back-up target for Future Fusion if I draw it after 2 Cyber Dragons.

Luckily, my deck's got Shining Angel, so I can Byroad Sacrifice it for Cyber Ogre and take something like Y-Dragon Head or Z-Metal Tank.

I'd put money on all CotD writers saying it sucks.

Aye, you are probably right. They tend to be quite the unforgiving bunch.

Cyber Ogre does suck. As good as the effect seems, you will probably get to activate it's effect once out of every ten games. If you're playing in a casual duel then you can increase your chance to five in every ten duels.

The reason why Cyber Ogre will never make it is not only because it's a tribute monster with 1900 att, but because you have to be pretty lucky to actually have another CYber Ogre in your hand when your opponent attacks.

Jae Kim made this card sound awesome on Metagame (yes, I know that is what he is supposed to do).

Deathjester gives open-minded and fair CotD reviews, so I hope he does this one. Otherwise it's: 'would I take Zaborg out of my SJC deck for this? No. 1/5'

That sounds like one of Exminions CotD's. I believe the card does "suck" if you are looking to splash it. As I said before, it needs its own deck.

I never judge a card based on "splashability". Even in a deck dedicated to using Cyber Ogre, it will still suffer greatly from it's cost. If you could discard any monster with "Cyber" in its name then Cyber Ogre would rock. But I can grantee you that 80% of the time Cyber Ogre will end up being a 1 tribute 1900 vanilla.

I don't agree with you on that. But Relinquished, you and I could argue about this until the end of time and still never get anywhere. I do not believe this card is that awful, and I will try building a deck around it. We're all entitled to our opinions.

1900 tribute monster
Combos with few cards
Effect isnt game breaking

Not tourney worthy

You will rarely ever get its effect off in a deck. However, that's not to say this card isn't playable. The Earth - Hex-Sealed Fusion much? Giant Rats, Last Will, Byroad Sacrifice. It may be hard to pull off Cyber Ogre's effect, but pulling out Cyber Ogre #2 isn't that hard at all. ;)

It will be used and abused, but everybody will forget him soon, but the fusion will be overabused and overused... and for my bad luck, everyone will have at least 2 in their fusion decks...=/

The Cyber Ogre family are among the cards that I am looking forward to in this set. I am figuring out how to incorporate them into my Earth Hex Sealed Fusion deck. Cyber Ogre 2 gives me another potent fusion to use. While the deck is not as good as the awesome dark version it still seems to be rather powerful in its testing stages.
