"Gilford the Lightning":

This is the only non-Egyptian God monster in the Yu-Gi-Oh! and anime to require three Tributes to be Tribute Summoned.

This card's second OCG artwork and first TCG artwork is taken from Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel 248 (Duelist Duel 189): "God's Third Power!", specifically from the panel where this monster is shown attacking Dark Marik directly.
