(RespectYGO) "Jinzo-Jacker"-The Return of the Psychic Android Machine!

(J.) Good Day people who respect YGO! I'm back and I will review one of the upcoming card that will be released in The Secret of Eternity(SECE) booster pack!
I guess most of you were shocked about the news and I feel you guys,it is quite shocking(Literally) because SECE will give us a support card for one of the most influential and infamous card in YGO history.It is no other than our beloved android machine "Jinzo" and their new female counterpart "Jinzo-Jacker"!

"Jinzo-Jacker in the house!"
SECE-JP031 Rarity-common
Jinzo-Jacker
Dark/Machine/4
800/2000
Card Effect: You can only use the (2) effect of "Jinzo-Jacker" once per turn.(1)This card is treated as "Jinzo" while on the field or in the graveyard.(2)You can tribute this card:Add 1 "Jinzo" monster from your deck to your hand except "Jinzo-Jacker".Then,you can reveal all set cards in your opponent spell and trap card zones,and if there are any trap card(s) revealed,you can special summon any number of "Jinzo" monster(s) from your hand up to the number of trap card(s) revealed.

Here we have the searcher of the archetype.In addition,if your opponent has set cards on his spell and trap card zones,you can summon the "Jinzo" monster you had just added with "Jinzo-Jacker's" second effect as well as your other "Jinzo" monsters in your hand if your opponent reveals up to that same number of revealed traps! In short,you can now get rid of the normal "Jinzo" that were stuck in your hand and swarm  a lot of these humanoid machines that are unafraid of traps!(barring solemn warning off course).In other words,since this archetype gets their themed searcher,the consistency of getting your "Jinzo-Returner" and "Jinzo-Lord" will increase.The tendency,you can accomplish your combo much faster than ever before! Overall,this is a great card with good effects to boot adding the fact that it has also a great artwork which we all loved from the "Jinzo" clan.



Other "Jinzo" cards:



-----
 Jinzo
Dark/Machine/6
2400/1500
Card Effect: If this card is face up on the field,all set trap cards cannot be activated and the effects of all face up trap cards are negated.
----
The Android machinery that started this all! It is one of the most fearsome monster way back in Yami Yugi days and now will come back for his sweet revenge. With him are his other forms.












----
Jinzo-Returner Rarity-Rare

Dark/Machine/3
600/1400
Card effect:
This card can attack your opponent directly. When this card is sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 "Jinzo" from your Graveyard. Destroy it during your End Phase.

-----

Before,the most popular combo with this card is by sending copies of it by the effect of "Future Fusion" which is now forbidden.As of now,there is no consistent way yet on sending this card to grave and his revival effect can also miss the timing so it cannot activate when used as a tribute to summon your "Jinzo" unfortunately.Still,it is a great card and future support will dictate the usefulness of this card and effectivity.



-----
Jinzo-Lord rarity-Super rare
Dark/Machine/8
2600/1600
Card Effect:This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by sending 1 face-up "Jinzo" you control to the Graveyard. Trap Cards cannot be activated and the effects of all Trap Cards on the field are negated. Once per turn, you can destroy all face-up Trap Cards. Inflict 300 damage to your opponent for each card destroyed by this effect.


Brace yourselves to the boss monster of "Jinzo" archetype.It has all the effects of a regular "Jinzo" with an additional burn effect.What I just notice is that I think the card is made to work with "Jinzo-Returner" but unfortunately they have a problem on how they are worded.First,Jinzo-Lord can sends a "Jinzo" to special summon itself from hand.Sad to say,it doesn't indicate that it can be any other "Jinzo" card but you can only offer a regular Jinzo card or the one who is treated "Jinzo" on the field which "Jinzo-Jacker" accomplishes.The attack and defense of this monster is good but if compared to other boss monsters nowadays,it falls short.In this kind of meta,Monster effects is reigned supreme but since "Jinzo" can only bring pain to Trap dependent decks which is uncommon nowadays,it will be hard for the "Jinzo" deck player to cope up with the meta.



 ----
Amplifier
Equip Spell card

Equip only to "Jinzo". While this card is equipped, the equipped monster's effect does not negate the effects of its controller's Trap Cards. When this card is removed from the field, destroy the equipped monster. This card's activation and effect cannot be negated.
----

Here we have the only spell support for "Jinzo".The card is only made to tell players that this material is used to control "Jinzo".Yes,it can prevent your trap cards
from being negated but it doesn't offer any advantage to jinzo even the much needed Attack boost.Overall,I like the story of the card and it is a very old card so it is understandable that it lacks the strong card effect that can boost the deck's playstyle.




Conclusion:
For the conclusion,I wanted to commend the new support cards that will be released on the next set.It was well designed and will suit to different player's preferences.I like the story of the cards and it opens many opportunities for player's who wanted to make their preferred deck.
Jinzo is indeed a benchmak in YGO History.That's a fact!
And whoever stand against the Jinzo clan will face the wrath of the shocking psychokinetic charge!

Stay tune for more exciting articles!
Thank you for respecting YGO!
