Ancient Prophecy Card Review: Black Shining G

Continuing on with my previous article on defeating Synchros, I'll be previewing a cards whose sole purpose is to kill synchros:


Black Shining G
Earth
Insect/Effect
When 1 Synchro Monster is Special Summoned to your opponent's side of the field, you can remove from play this card from your Graveyard to destroy that 1 Synchro Monster.

Black Shining G will likely find its way onto the sidedecks of many duelists; with its searchability and simple effect, this card is a great counter to any synchro. When it's in the graveyard, your opponent won't dare try to synchro. If they do, they waste a lot of cards just to deal with the threat of this one card.
There are lots of ways to get this into the graveyard, though this card will most likely see play in lightsworn decks.

Keep in mind, however, that Stardust Dragon will still be able to activate its effect a moment before Shining Black G destroys it.

Black Shining G is an excellent addition to any duelist's arsenal, and will likely see some play in the coming months.

Next time: Ancient Prophecy came out with some nice water support, and I'll be previewing a couple of the more potent ones.

Duel with Honor!
