Pros

  • Solid stats for a 6-starred monster.
  • Can destroy spell/trap cards with its effect.
  • Great synergy with banish-supporting cards.

Cons

  • Cannot be normal summoned or set.
  • Requires 3 monsters with 2 different attributes to special summon this card.
  • Requires you to discard 1 card each time you activate its effect to destroy spell/trap cards.

Tips, related cards, skills

Wild Tornado

Activate your Desert Twister's effect and destroy your own set Wild Tornado to activate its secondary effect "If this Set card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, select and destroy 1 face-up card on the field."

Smoke Grenade of the Thief

Activate and equip it to your Desert Twister then destroy it using its own effect, this way you can discard 1 card in your opponent's hand and you will be able to take a look what cards are they holding. (Best to counter Sphere Kuriboh.)

Not in GX manga I think. And Fubuki doesn't use this card.

IMO it's pretty splashable since right now Jerry Beans and Sonic Bird are the strongest vanilla beaters right now.

it's a bit of a long shot, but this card is awesome When trying to run a complete spell/trap zone denial.

I'm running a Xing Zhen Hu card with Tea's surprise present (Jam breeding machine), but u don't always get perfect conditions, so with this card you can make sure the slot is free, and even if u don't put the SURPRISE PRESENT, with xing zhen active, u can always make sure there are no traps waiting for you.

Add a wild tornado and a couple def traps, and u can almost always destroy any card your opponent may summon (And that is friggin hard when u have no spell/trap zone)

Extra notes*
Need to run a bunch of earth/wind monsters (ladybug is pretty good, blue dragon, behemoth), and I also like to put in some spirit cards, like Susa, and yasaka comb, so u get card overfill ( but make up for it with lifepoints, and then u can discard the monsters u need to summon twister). Also mystic box, so if u don't have twister and tornado but have spirit and mbox.

Haha, it's a superfun deck, though not always reliable, great for casual though. HAve FUN!!! :)

Is it possible to discard it, then revive it using shallow grave and bypass its normal summoning conditions?

With the addition of Kyonshee this card is pretty strong on Harpie decks. Even if you don't have Kyonshee you can make up with Grepher.

Grepher is abit better due to it being a normal warrior monster, that's searchable via blue dragon summoner's effect.

Oh yeah I realized that a bit later, also Grepher has nice defense.

This card has a lot of potential. One moment before I lost battle with someone using HHG deck, I able to summon this monster, destroy that hunting spell card and turn the table!

What deck do you even mean?
