Evaluation

RatingA-

Pros

  • Prevents your opponent from using effects during battle.
  • Negates the effect of the monster it battles.
  • Revives a Machine monster.

Cons

  • Revival effect relies on the opponent’s action.
  • Can be costly to summon.
  • No protection outside of battle.

Tips

  • Because the opponent monster’s effect is negated during battle, Samurai Destroyer can remove monsters with battle destruction immunity.
  • Self stat boosts by your opponent’s monsters are also ignored by Samurai Destroyer.

Summoning

This card works well in a Morphtronic or Karakuri deck because of their ability to Synchro Summon level-7 monsters with Morphtronic Scopen and Karakuri Komachi mdl 224 “Ninishi” respectively. Additionally they are both Machine decks so you can sometimes pull off Samurai Destroyer’s floating effect.

Aside from that, any deck capable of making level-7 Synchros can use Samurai Destroyer as an Extra Deck toolbox.

Similar Effects

Lots of monsters are able to prevent your opponent from activating some card effects during the battle, most notably the Ancient Gear archetype. Samurai destroy and the cards listed below are able to prevent your opponent from activating all card effects during battle.

Star Eater has a different approach to this. Instead of preventing your opponent from activating card effects, it makes itself immune to all card effects.

Yes, but it will be a useless attempt. Before damage calculation, Samurai Destroyer will negate Cocytus effect of "can attack while in defense position" then immediately end the battle

The destroyer of the samurai destroyer already did his job I guess

holy crap
A bit miffed
Worth noting this card's battle effect is currently bugged, since the opponent can activate some hand effects during the battle step with some decks

1. Just bring out something bigger that doesn't rely on its own effect for its ATK

2. Use cards that can affect it outside battle, or at the start of Battle Phase before it attacks

When this card attacks Cyberdark Edge equipped with Cannon/Leng Ling, that equip card will be destroyed immediately before damage calculation, dealing huge damage over a tiny 800 ATK Edge

I run this card with Star eater , Reactor dragon , Armades , and Chowlen the prophet for a complete lockdown honestly if you have a good deck with many level 4 monsters and quick ways to summon higher levels instantly then the things you can do are limitless with these cards
