"These two dead souls call forth the Lord of the Underworld!! Break down the door of Hades and arise!! Ghost Fusion Summoning!! Underworld Dragon Dragonecro!!"

I simply love the Signer Dragon variants from the manga, especially those that weren't in the anime. Let's be real, this was the only chance for Rudger to ever get any kind of unique dragon. And he isn't even a Signer here (well he's a duel priest but you get my gist)

Dragonecro's effect of leaving the monster it attacks with zero attack and creating a token with the same stats is really neat. It even works if you ram it into an opponent and it gets destroyed. And then you can overrun the other monster with the token anyway in most cases. I really dig that it's a fusion monster too.

"Roll back the tide of the dead and emerge, from the river of grief that flows through the Underworld!! Synchro Summons!! Underworld Flood Dragon Dragocutos!!"

I loved the exchange that followed Rudger summoning his evolved dragon inthe manga.

Rudger: You can't destroy my 4000 atk beater in battle. And thanks to my overpowered spell card it's completely protected from card effects!

Yusei: Grrr...

Rudger: And then on my next turn it will give you massive burn damage too! Looks like you lose!

Yusei: Well then I'll exploit Stardust's effect and one of my extremely specific equip cards to give Stardust 10000 attack!

Rudger: 10000 attack?! How...Why...

Yusei: Fuck you ! That's why! (not really they were actually rather respectful towards each other)
