Evaluation

RatingC+

Pros

  • Synergy with Castle of Dark Illusions enables it to increase ATK and DEF over the course of 4 standby turns.
  • Can be Special summoned with Call of the Mummy effect.

Cons

  • Reliant on Castle of Dark Illusions to trigger its effect.
  • Average ATK and DEF stats for level 6 monster.

Tips, Related Cards, Rulings

Synergy

  • This card is an essential support for Pumpking, pretty much the only card that can trigger Pumpking’s effect.

Single Tribute resources

  • Treeborn Frog can easily be used as tribute to summon this card.
  • A slower but viable option is using Amarylease effect from the graveyard to Tribute summon Pumpking without needing a tribute.

Tribute opponents’ monsters with spells

  • Use Soul Exchange to use your opponent's monster as tribute.
  • You can also use Enemy Controller tribute effect to use your opponent’s monster as tribute.

Summon using effects

  • Can special summon Pumpking via its effect, from either player’s graveyard or your hand.
  • Can special summon Pumpking from the graveyard via its effect.
  • Can special summon Pumpking provided you do not control any monsters on the field.
  • Gozuki’s effect banishes another zombie-type monster in the graveyard to special summon Pumpking from your hand.

This card should not be an UR at this point in the game...

and I agree with you. This card should be SR instead of UR, just like his Princess.

Hopefully Bonz will be obtainable someday, and he'll have a really good skill to make this viable. Or, it'll be another Moth to the Flame.

The drop RATE is fine. It's just bad luck when it comes to not getting the cards you want.

This card would be decent if they released it when duellinks was released. Now, power creep has made it unplayable

I use this card to beat Cyber Dakini. Thanks SRH.

I see a lot of hate for this card, but honestly I have lost to bonz with some of my best decks because of how it runs. Not only does this combo well with Castle of Illusions, boosting its attack to obscene levels if unchecked, the true terror is his daughter, Pumprincess the princess of ghosts, which lowers all opponents monsters attack during every standby phase. If you get the illusions combo and the Pumprincess combo off, You will always be growing in power while your opponents monsters cant do anything to stop the onslaught. Heck, I almost lost a duel because my Meteor B. Dragon was a puny 1600 attack thanks to all the counters on the field. And that monster was originally 3500! Really looking forward to see Bonz's skills to get these combos working.

This card is 7 months too late, and even then it would’ve sucked. UR should’ve been Mezuki....

Mezuki would be a ur in a 400 pack box

I can agree with that, but hey, with how much the games changing I wouldn’t have been surprised to see Mezuki as the event UR.
