"✪ No. 1 Infection Baal Zebre" Rating Score by みめっと

The last one of the 4 Imitation Numbers, which has been recorded in Korepa Anikuro every year, has been recorded in 2023 Anikuro as planned.
Well, with this, the digestion of the long-running anime/manga production numbers has finally come to an end.
Except for one card, a black illuminator or something like that.
Its effect is the effect of X Summoning Trigger, aiming at 1 monster in the opponent's EX Deck and sending it to his GY, the single removal effect with burn using the X material, and the opponent's GY card as the X material. It has almost the same ability as when the anime appeared, replenishing itself.
As expected, the difference other than the anime-specific number resistance is that the material required for X summoning has been relaxed from 3 materials to 2 or more materials, and you can choose any card for the opponent's GY card that can be used as X material. On the contrary, the effect damage when removing face-up monsters with the removal effect is halved, and the ability to replenish X materials has been changed from the activation effect to your standby phase. The point that it is an trigger effect that can be activated is weakened.
Due to the nature of this card's effect, you don't need to have that many X materials, and even if you use it as a GY meta, if you use it as a material for Special Summon in the turn you put it out, all the X materials will be sent to GY anyway. So, I don't mind weakening the effect of 3 that much, but if you use it as a material for Special Summon in the turn you use it, it would be more convenient for the effect of 3 to be an activation effect. hey.
Originally, among the Imitation Numbers, it was expected to have the strongest original power and the best performance when converted to OCG. From the specifications of the effect, there was also an expectation that removal effects and effects that allow you to use GY cards as your own X material would be able to be used in Friche during the opponent's turn, but unfortunately that was not the case. I got the impression that this card didn't become as strong as I thought it would be because I had high hopes for it because it didn't give resistance.
In terms of the same General-purpose Rank 8X Numbers, you can destroy any card on your opponent's field, and his ATK is doubled.
Still, as a general-purpose rank 8X, both ATK and effect quality are stronger than a certain level.
It doesn't have the ability or resistance to put pressure on the opponent's turn, but since it has the ability to cut through the opponent's EX Deck, it can be said that it's worth X Summoning on the first turn as long as you have an effective way to deal with it.
