This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set.

When this card is Special Summoned successfully, pay 500 Life Points to increase the ATK of this card by 3000 points until the end of the End Phase.

RatingB

Pros

  • Very powerful ATK and DEF stats.
  • Can further increase another 3000 ATK till End Phase by paying 500 Life Points.

Cons

  • Challenging Special Summon conditions.

Tips

Archetype Combo

These are the cards that are required on your field before you are able to summon Theinen.

Support Cards

These cards can be used to remove Pyramid of Light to trigger the condition to summon Theinen, at the same time eliminate most of your opponent’s backrow. If Wild Tornado is also destroyed, you can destroy opponent’s face up monster as well. Since Pyramid of Light is destroyed, results in Andro Sphinx and Sphinx Teleia being destroyed and removed from play simultaneously, you are now able to Special Summon Theinen. Theinen is able to end the game easier since there are no backrows to worry about, but still susceptible to Sphere Kuribohs. Since it costs Life Points to get this far, it is suggested you have some healing cards in your deck as well.

pyramid got returned through spiritualism and destroyed both sphinx's but wouldnt let me summon this guy, just a blank slot
Explicit Sage
Anyone who read the text of the card correctly and has played the speed duel format should know that this card is not worth the cost. Having to destroy 2 monsters at the same time when you only have 3 monster slots is pretty difficult, especially considering your opponent is likely running 3 copies of whatever 7 cards are dominating the current meta.

Plus you can always use Storm and destroy your opponent’s backrow as well as your Pyramid

I'm really looking forward to this Sphinx Monsters. There is potential to build Destiny Draw / Mausoleum version of it. Andro Spinx, Sphinx Taleia can be special summoned with Pyramid of Light and got BANISHED if the Pyramid leaves the field. They cannot be revived from the graveyard but that doesn't matter because they're banished. So there is also a possible combo with that Luster Soldier.

Just imagine you've got Andro and Taleia on the field. Storm your Pyramid to special summon Theinen. Play Mausoleum to summon Luster Soldier, use it's effect to banish another card of your opponent and hit him with two massive beaters.

Utter garbage along with the other 2 sphinx cards. Literally unplayable and unsummonable. And it's an SR card? What a joke.

It's decent for Duel Links. Just run Labyrinth Builder or Balance to avoid bricking.

Ironically, the Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon is also one of Seto Kaiba's Level-Up rewards.

Hmm, if we can get these Spinx flows right, they could end up being a great General farming squad. Add FK Island + Vassal + 2 Union on final turn = Done.
