Flip Summon with effect

Flip Summon with effect

Card type	Tip
Status	Illegal (TCG)
In Dark Beginning 2, there are some monsters that have an effect that activates when you Flip Summon them. These effects are different than Flip Effects, because they do not activate when the monster is flipped face-up because it is attacked. These monsters also have an effect that allows you to flip them back into face-down Defense Position. "Guardian Sphinx" is such a monster. You should Set this card instead of Normal Summoning it. Then next turn, Flip Summon it and return all your opponent's monsters to the owner's hand, attack with "Guardian Sphinx", and then flip it back face-down. Perform this combo again every turn, which will be unbearable to your opponent!
