It is one of the monsters with a common effect called Cycle Flip Monster that appeared in the second period, and when attacking set monsters, it will inspire like a fiery fire and increase its power by 8 times.
However, his ATK is about 2400, which is eight times that power, and even low-level monsters now have cards with defensive power that can withstand his ATK.
Considering the card pool at the time, the effect of Reverse Effect Monsters would eventually trigger, so it would have been nice if at least it had its own piercing effect...
By the way, this monster's cycle reverse ability is only useful to the extent that it becomes difficult for him to take LP when counterattacking from the opponent, and it does not synergize with its own effect at all.

He's not the original character of Sentai or Nagahama Roman Robo.
Defensive monsters can come out insanely strong. Equipped with 《Ballista of Rampart Smashing》, there is 3900 RBI and romance.
However, there is Drillroid that can destroy effects if it destroys a defensive monster.
Together with 《Pentestag》, it will fight with defense penetration. Try it.

Comprehensive evaluation: "Drillroid" and he should use a monster with ATK 2400 from the beginning.
It seems to be a meta for the back defense, but if the defense exceeds 2400, it is meaningless, and the reverse effect is also used, so it is better to use something like Drillroid.
Even if you grant pierce, it's better to use something like "Saber Beetle" with pierce at ATK 2400 from the beginning, even on the return turn.
There is a point where you can suppress the damage by becoming a back defense, but the original status is very low.

It's a card that looks like it's ready for defense by flipping it over after an attack, but it's half-hearted in that it's a pinpoint target and doesn't negate the reverse effect.
Now that the defensive meta-reverse itself is declining due to the inflation of removal methods, this guy is unlikely to come into play.

It's a cycle reverse, but a strange card that doesn't have a reverse ability and has a reverse meta-like ability.

Backside Defense Position A card that reaches advanced classes only for monsters. However, there is no such thing as a low class set end anymore. Moreover, against other opponents, he only has a meager ATK of 300. Even in the days when marshmallows were active, Mystic Swordsman could aim for effect destruction.

Sand Dust Barrier, 《Swords of Concealing Light》, Book of the Moon, 《Book of Eclipse》, Mae Stroke, Castel, Aeroboros, 《Turnabout》, etc., there are plenty of ways to turn your opponent into a backside Defense Position. It might be a good idea to combine it with 《Phantom Cricket》, which has the same level and race but also has the same effect as the other side Defense Position. I like the card because the illustration is cool.

Although it is a card against set monsters, it is easier to fulfill the role of "Mystic Swordsman", which can destroy effects rather than increasing RBI, so if you use this card, be sure that it is a cycle Flip Monster and that he is an Insect. I have no choice but to make the most of it. He's a DARK, so being able to receive support like 《Allure of Darkness》is something that differentiates him.

This guy's cycle reverse is to prevent battles damage by changing the format in Karakuri.
As a defensive killer, Sasuke Samurai and Miss Sword Lv2 are overwhelmingly better.
ATK can't win against reverse effects and battle destruction resistance...
Hey, don't you look too backwards (trembling voice)

A card that only makes you stronger against backside Defense Position monsters. Although there is no point in Flip Summoning, the Cycle Reverse effect keeps him from exposing his low ATK.
That said, it's a drawback that ATK doesn't increase above 2400, and above all, it's easier to remove wall monsters...

It's like cycle reverse and doesn't matter at all.
The concept might be something like "This is the strongest monster that can defeat Cycle Reverse this time!"
You can beat most of the low-level walls, but even combat destruction resistance is a bit of a sos removal rampant environment,
On top of that, the number of walls premised on battle destruction has also increased...

A slightly rare effect that changes only the back defense to a fixed ATK.
It looks like it's pulling your leg quite a bit, but it's not bad.
It can also go around defense, so you don't have to worry about battles damage (although penetrating hurts).

It seems to be useful when combined with Moon Book, Sand Baku, etc.
I don't like this kind of effect
