I don't know why they still haven't address this card. You just need 3 cards in your hand (DNA Surgery, this card, and Cipher Soldier), and you can OTK on the second/third turn of the duel, on your opponent's turn.

That's ridiculously OP.

All they need to do is limiting this card......

"these expensive UR and SR can also take out inexpensive N and R backrows"

f**k komoney!
You made backrows a problem on purpose just so that you can justify putting a heavy price tag on backrow removal.

Stop messing with us komoney!

Dear customer,
Please understand us.
We really like money.
For this reason we have to put all of our efforts into making backrows as annoying as possible, at the cost of unbalancing the game if needed.
Please, kindly purchase our powerful backrow removal to show your support.

Kind regards.
Have fun playing Duel Links.

It's not the most optimal card to tech in, but it's so much fun with subterrors. If you used Final Battle with Spikeshield it's an OTK. If they remove Final Battle then you still have Spikeshield. 6 cards to protect your monster from being destroyed by battle.

I personally use this with amazoness swords woman and gravity lash. alot of cards have high defense as well so I use gravity lash to weaken them so they take the most possible damage from spikeshield. Also it's quite fun equipping spikeshield to one of their monsters econ into defense position and attacking into their outrageously large defense with swords woman. Usually they will only be able to answer with wall of d only making them take more damage due to swords woman's effect. Unfortunately I can't come up with the rest of a decklist to improve consistency however when it goes off it is magical lol

Still better than all this Amazoness crap that's much more 🔥ous.

The mastery of this card is that when you usually set a monster face-down, it’s interpreted as “running scared”, which distracts from the fact that you’ve set a trap. I just love stat-combination cards in general.

I have no idea how this card works. if it gives 500 atk and if it’s attackes gains defense equal to its attack meaning if you use 3 it’s only a 1500 boost so how did I take 6300 LP damage from a monster that only clears by 900

1 shield= (atk+500)+def

2 shield= 2(atk+1000)+def

3 shield= 3(atk+1500)+def

As you can see, a monster with 0 def and 0 atk equipped with 3 shields gains 4500 def when attacked.

A monster with 900 atk gains 6300 def.

Funniest way to win by far

This is a great card to splash into any deck. It's very versatile being able to activate during the damage step allowing you to net a healthy chunk of life points from the unwary. But it can also be used to bait out your opponents destruction effects while still netting value with cards like black steggo and amazoness swords woman. Combine with the fact that even the most mediocer monsters become walls with this card. Makes this a great card for antimeta decks.

Spikeshield is broken, It shouldn't be allowed to activate it on a face-down monster going face-up when attacked. And if it is, then i want to use my ennemy controller when attacking that same monster face-down, so i can change its position to attack position. See the point? now change it. Both have the same requirement but Spikeshield outruled this basic process.

It does not rule out any basic process.

You can activate cards and effects that changes ATK/DEF during Damage Step, and at that point the monster is face-up already, making it a valid target.

Enemy Controller doesn't change ATK/DEF, so it cannot be activated during Damage Step.

Spikeshield does not outrule anything, it's you who just don't understand how Damage Step works.

Read the above anon's explanation.

Any effect that modifies ATK or DEF can be used in the Damage Step, which starts only after the Def Mode monster is flipped face-up. Since Enemy Controller does not modify ATK/DEF, it cannot be activated in the Damage Step. Spikeshield can tho

This card + DNA is the new ultimate troll combo lol

Never mind I figured it out that’s broke as 🔥

This crap is pure 🔥, why is it so overlooked? The problem is not gaining 500 ATK, but the defense boost which is insane. It makes monsters with it indestructible by battle, so cheap.

I use this card all the time(cons yes it's cloggy)backrow can remove the card but I believe the effect once activated is Perma and it's better than MetalMorph. It's both defensive and offensive and my cards I always use are Exarion,Two Thousand Needles(Quils)Mid/Big-Gardna etc etc. loving this hyper competitive card. It should be limited to 2 but it's surely looked over by komoney..

Wait, are you saying once activated even if they destroy the card, the monster still retains the effect?

I guess it has some downsides... especially the backrow clogging. But it's a card that wins games on the very first turn. That's insane, the Cipher burn decks are out of hand.
