Evaluation

RatingB

Pros

  • Forces all monsters on the Field to face-up ATK position.
  • Decent ATK and DEF stats.
  • Can attack twice during the same battle phase.
  • If summoned by Tributing 3 monsters, it can lower all your opponent’s monsters’ ATK equal to their original ATK value.

Cons

  • Requires 2 Tribute to Tribute Summon. Optionally you can use 3 Tributes to Tribute Summon in order to activate its addtional effect.

Tips

  • This monster mostly plays the role of finisher as it is quite tedious to Tribute Summon it. Considerably slow if you plan to Tribute 3 monsters to Summon it.
  • A typical Sea Stealth Attack will overshadow the need to use this monsters’ effect because they can just eliminate opponent’s monsters easily with Sea Stealth Attack’s effect.

Tribute Method

Skreech can send up to 2 Treeborn Frog or Fishborg Planter, or 1 of each, to your Graveyard when it was destroyed by battle. Treeborn Frogs is a free tribute resource as long as you do not have any Spell/Trap cards (including Field Spell). Fishborg Planter can Special Summon itself by discarding 1 card from your Top Deck, and if that discarded card is a monster. This are the viable WATER monsters to set up for your Tribute Summon. Enemy Controller and Double Magical Arm Bind can be used to take control of your opponent’s monster(s) to be used as Tribute, thus eliminating their monsters on the Field at the same time.

Water Support

This monster gains stat buffs from A Legendary Ocean, and can utilize Sea Stealth Attack’s effect to destroy your opponent’s monsters at the start of Damage Step.

Build tripper into a paleo deck with draw sense water. Paleos make him surprisingly easy to 3 tribute summon. I added aquarium set and umiiruka so the paleos can fight without him if needed.

I only wish I had more than just 1 copy. I'd like to run something other than draw sense water

We actually can get 2 copies of Mercury already. The second one was from another pick-a-gift event.

Heck you can have 3 copies if you used the 5Ds world event ticket for another Mercury (but who does that when there are rarer cards to pick lol)

I've tried this combo with other decks, but of course, people negate, banish, or destroy one eventually (otherwise its gg when you summon Lava Golem or something like it)
Shit card
This is absolute 🔥e, not even special summon either which wouldn't make it much better anyway.

Floodgate, Canadia, Chalice and basically any half decent trap card can stop this after wasting a lot of resources to bring this out in the first place.

So:

1. Hard to summon.

2. No special summon so you have to wait a turn even if you manage to bring 3 monsters out easily enough.

3. Vulnerable to E-Con or any decent trap card.

That's why Anti-Magic Arrow exist

Also, you do know you also can use your own backrow to protect this card, right

AMA is total useless against any of the mentioned cards above.
Second you sacrifice 3 cards to bring it out to may gain the effect.

Floodgate and battle position changer hits pretty much any monster that's not immune to them, what's your point?

You might as well not use 99% of the monsters in this game, because they are also weak to Floodgate and Econ......

That's it , i totally agree with u ...
This card is pretty vulnerable to any other trap cards like any monster and the way it gets summoned which makes it a little worse.

Hey trunade + cyber style + tripper mercury = otk

Use this card in a fur hire or six samurai deck or even sylvians and watch it effortlessly tear enemies apart.
These deck swarm the field while nuking enemy back rows removing spells and traps. Mercury attacks and you win immeditately

Trunade is better. AMA won't protect you from Floodgate, Canadia or Econ.

AMA can protect against Canadia and Econ since a lot of players use them as battle traps.

You're right about Floodgate, though.

If you summon this card with two tributes can it still attack twice every battle phrase?
