Flip monsters have gone from a novelty in Yu-Gi-Oh to a fully-fledged strategy , with multiple archetypes exploiting them. When Scapeghost is flipped face-up, you can special summon as many sheep tokens as possible to your side of the field. These have no restriction on them whatsoever , meaning you can use them to tribute summon, synchro summon, or link summon as much as you like.
Whenever a monster is special summoned from the graveyard, you can special summon Doppelwarrior from your hand. And when you synchro summon with this card, you can special summon two tokens in its place, giving you even more material to summon with.
So if you control one monster in the extra monster zone and one monster in the main zone, you get 3 tokens when this guy is summoned. You can then burn damage into your opponent for every Skyblaster monster on the field, which with all your tokens included, comes to a decent damage. This combo was so widely used that Scapegoat actually got hit by the ban list, and now you can only play one copy of this card in your deck.

If the effect of "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness" is negated, then its effect to Special Summon itself cannot be activated again, unless you are receiving Damage for a second time.
Example: If a "Emissary of Darkness Token"? If your opponent activates an effect that destroys the only card on your side of the field and also inflicts damage to your Life Points, you can activate "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness" effect. If the destroyed card has an effect that activates at this time, you can still activate the effect of "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness". The effect of the destroyed card and the effect of "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness" will form a Chain.
If your opponent inflicts battle damage to your Life Points with a monster like "Airknight Parshath" or "Spirit Reaper", you can activate the effect of "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness". If you activate "Mystical Space Typhoon" and your opponent chains "Judgment of Anubis", if they destroy the only monster you control with its effect and inflict damage to your Life Points, you can start a new Chain by activating the effect of "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness" if you don't control any cards.

This card is a must have for all Twilight decks, and an excellent option to consider for those which run a fair amount of Light and Dark monsters.
Chances are Chaos Sorcerer would get destroyed and be wasted. Be patient and try to send more cards to the grave. For today we are going to review a card released in Stardust Overdrive, a set that is coming on in TCG soon. I feel that this card deserves honorable mention, as it managed to boost the image of ritual monsters, and its deck can be quite devastating when comboed with the right cards. When this card is Ritual Summoned, select a number of face-up cards on the field except this card up to the number of monsters used to Ritual Summon of this card.
While the selected cards are face-up on the field, this card cannot be destroyed by card effects. Basically, this card has to be run in its own Ritual deck.
Why is it a boss monster? Still, not allowing your opponent to special summon is kickass stops Tragoedia and Gorz when you attack too. Granted, Ritual Monsters are a little slow for this metagame even in the previous formats, and the cost to summon it is great, but I think this monster is worth it. With so many kickass effects, its presence can cause your opponent to think very hard, and may even lose if they are unprepared.
I do agree that the second disadvantage can be very fatal and cause you game, but again with the proper support in the deck, you might have something extremely potent.
Let me take this opportunity to dwell on the fact on why this card is so important to the image of Ritual monsters and its support. Ritual monsters have always been a category of cards highly ignored, with the only playable one being Demise, King of Armageddon which is now limited, sob sob.
Ritual Monsters are basically dead cards in your hand without the appropriate Ritual Spell, and vice versa. On top of that, you need to tribute on average of 2 monsters to summon it.
If you do some basic math, you lose 3 cards in the process just to summon that one monster. However now, Norsewemko has taken it to a different level. It is really quite an eye-opener, making Ritual deck s more worthwhile, and hence hopefully this is a sign for better Ritual cards that change the Ritual Summoning engine.
How to play: Other than the above-mentioned cards, OCG players had used wonderful tech, which can be seen from this video here. It is in japanese, but I will briefly explain how it works. Magical City Endymion serves as one of the targets which Norsewemko would select. Due to the many spells which would have played before you summon her, it would have accumulated enough counters that makes it indestructible.
In other wards, Norsewemko can never be destroyed by card effects. Because of this, Endymion, the Master Magician is a very nice complement. Not only can you use him with Mage City E, he is a level 7 monster which can be used to pay for the Ritual Cost! To counter the 2nd disadvantage mentioned previously, 3 Book of Moons are used to prevent attacks, as well as flipping her face-down if really needed, though this is not a fool-proof solution.
Here is a question open to anyone: Does Torrential Tribute or the like destroy her after she has activated her first effect with priority? I may pull references from other blogs on the occasion, and perhaps give my counter evaluation. On a lighter note, our nicknames of choice should occur obvious to you unless you never in your life watched Yu-gi-oh!.

This is one of my most favorite cards in the game. It is interesting to note that it was limited until the September 1st Banlist, and then released from it to 3.
This shows that this card definitely does have the power to be disruptive! Then again, it was removed from the ban list for a reason right? Here is the clarification of its rulings which show why it is so good: You can Normal Summon this card and activate its effect with priority. To tribute it is a cost , and thus you send it to the graveyard immediately. As it is off the field, it is no longer affected by cards that affect cards on the field.
This means it goes under one of the more notorious cards in the metagame: Skill Drain. While Skill Drain is active, you can summon it and tribute it to destroy any irritating monster your opponent has that is not affected by Skill Drain. This applies for cards with similar effects.
