essentially the main weakness of the card is it bricks you in the early game, but otherwise it's essentially literally just pot of avarice, and in this format that's kinda crazy
it's genuinely impressive how much a simple +1 in card advantage matters in this format

aaand, because it's a beast, it's also a type not shared with the other monsters in the deck, which sometimes helps with dichotomy

it works great because it's essentially a removal spell that then goes and sits in the S/T and lets you materialize anytime even if you don't get to your lab wall shadow

it's the issue with the infinite ED but only 15 spaces on DB, i'll be forgetting lots of options

on the complete other hand of self discard, this is urustos beat, a low to the ground control deck that just plays the bigger monsters and denies interaction and slowly generates advantage (yes that means it's fabled control, yes it works, yes it's good)

it ends up being pretty highly different from lab which is honestly great

that is to say, we'll be focusing on tempo to gather the wedju temple and then start rolling out 2100+ dwellers one after the other, and followup that pressure with more pressure by materializing sengenjin and then having the soul res to revive it

sanga killed once before it becomes unable to break a stalemate against a summoned skull or a seiyaryu
