The comments have established that the ability is playable in Eternatus. I understand you prefer Bisharp to Liepard, I do too. But the games are separate to the cards. Yes Bisharp is OP in the games. But Liepard isn't. So giving the cat the spotlight for once is good. Liepard can outperform Bisharp in the cards for once. A Liepard fan in the crowd will finally be happy. Bisharp will have his time as an ultra rare. Wait it out if you can. I also want an alt art Kecleon VMAX. That isn't happening anytime soon, despite Kecleon being as good a candidate as Bisharp. You can't have everything immediately, or the drive to get what you don't have will vanish.Besides, There is literally better choices for Dark type or even 2-stage evolution lines in Gen 5 to be Vs. Like I said, Bisharp has NEVER gotten any good card. Actually he's literally more worthy of getting a V considering not only are his cards always crap, but said cards never deserve to be. Dude literally has 125 attack. Like....that's wonderful. That's genuinely better than most Vs have. Liepard has 88 attack. So instead of getting a Darkness Bisharp V that could do a lot of damage, we get a liepard that does 110 damage and has a genuinely useless ability.
How can I not have an issue with that?
The ignore button improves your quality of life tremendously. Block the troll and move on rather than feeding him.
As for these cards, they're both neat. Liepard's cool but outside of Eternatus there really isn't decks that want to give up a bench space for it yet, and come rotation there isn't that many great tools. Tauros seems like it has potential, either just paired with stuff like Houndoom and Abomasnow or Donphan VIV to put damage counters on it. It's nice when a single-prizer actually has some effort put into it, and I'm looking forward to experimenting with it. The new Cemetery helps it out, as well.
Probably nothing more though. Unless the twin Caly sets reveal any absolutely nutty tools, Eternatus will likely be this card's only home. Tool scrapper is more efficient, despite being less searchable.Maybe a one of in eternatus?
On the Spikemuth part, you most likely run Old Cemetery as a Stadium since its most easier than Spikemuth because you have to switch active back and forth to place the desirable dmg on Tauros and it keeps getting impractical.Liepard is cool. Eternatus likely has the bench space for it, and it can discard stuff like Metal Googles - in the 3 months it has remaining in format it releases -, Cape of Toughness and other problematic tools. The attack is cool too, allowing for constant re-use and even softening up a target for next turn. Can't say how viable it's gonna be in the SWSH-on format, tho. We likely need to know which tools we are getting in Chilling Reign and the September set.
Tauros always has that "rage" gimmick going on with its cards, and as far as Tauros versions go, this is possibly one of the best. Maxes out at 260 by itself, Houndoom and Single Strike Energy give it +20 damage for each copy, Powerful Colorless gives it yet another extra +20, and we have Twin Energy when it can't afford the extra attachment - though I would probably go 4-4 in a Powerful Colorless/Single Strike count. Add Cape of Toughness and it maxes out at 340 + 40 = 380. Be careful with Zigzagoon tho. Houndoom and Spikemuth place 40 damage per turn. Too bad Jynx rotates, otherwise the self-spread would be far more viable.
You know what? Y'all can suck my dong. I'm allowed to want what I want. I don't need to justify that to strangers.
