ennemy controler

[chocoman]

please explain to me the benefits of ennemy controler over other cards and how it should be used.
I just can't get myself to use the card, I'm just not convinced that it's a good card.

It's a Quick-Play Spell (can activate like a Trap, and can activate from your hand during your turn). It gives a free position change (Sheep Token in Attack Position for massive damage?), or it can be a Change of Heart (face-up monsters only) at the cost of a Tribute. Yes, the second effect can be costly, but not if you time it right. Because it has 2 effects, it has options.

The Brain control-type effect would actually be quite good when combined with a Quick-Play card. If your monster's about to be destroyed by an attack, Ring of Destruction, etc., Tribute it to gain an opponent's monster.

I don't own one, and I'm not sure if I'd use one. Brain Control is better for the secondary effect, and I'd tend not to use the first effect anyway (why change positions if you can have a card that'll destroy it instead?). But then again, I'm more into aggro that subtle strategies. Keep beating on them enough and they'll crack.

Frankly, though, you should use what you think are the best cards. If Enemy Controller isn't sitting right with you, switch it for a Brain Control or a Stop Defense (depending on which you think is better).

Enemy Controller's first effect works wonders if you are running Trample monsters or monsters that gain advantage through doing LP damage.(Don Zaloog, etc...)The second effect can be costly, but it depends upon what you have on the field. Obviously it is a win-win if you Sangan already up.

I love it because it's versatile. It does 2 things, and does them both well. I like a card that has options on how you can use it, and this does that. The fact that it's a Quick-Play just solidifies at as "good" to me.

Machine Structure common, here I come!

To add to it, it IS popular for it's position changing ability, of course it's defensive, but when you're fighting against a Jinzo, or some other Monarchs, they quickly succumb to your offense. Now, what could be better than having a Hydrogeddon handy?

hello all,
I found that enemy controller can be very useful in certain decks.
I normally use the first effect to stall them and it's also annoying. the second effect I use with treeborn frog, sangan also with last will. I like it better than mind control only because I need my life points for other things like dimension fusion.

its one of my favorite cards in the game because it has so many uses, for example. they use smashing ground to destroy my monster i chain enemy controller to tribute my monster to take control of thier monster which then gets smashed

also i can kill reeper, switch a goat, tribute treeborn or sangan to take control, and by the way if u set treeborn and controller and your opponent summons but doesnt attack in your next standby phase tribute treeborn to take control of their monster, and because your still in your standby phase treeborn frog comes back. and not to mention all of this gets under jinzo!:rolleyes
