Talk:Broken Bamboo Sword

why was this card made, it doesn't have any uses, or does it?

Maha Vailo. Of course other equip spells wopuld be a better choice, so the real reason may unfold only in the future. --Pjacobi 09:45, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

• Fodder for Armed Changer too.
  • Use any other equip cards for the above examples. Broken Bamboo Sword is however needed for Soul-Absorbing Bamboo Sword. --Deltaneos 12:16, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

You can also use it with Golden Bamboo Sword to draw cards.

Works well when you equip your opponent's monster with it and then activate Eternal Rest or Really Eternal Rest. To bad though they don't use a stricter interpretation of the wording. Say your opponent's Monster is Equipped with Axe of Despair for example and you equip this card to the same monster. The wording says the Monster gains 0 ATK points not the Monster gains 0 ATK points from this card. You could argue that their Axe of Despair just broke and they lose the additional 1000 ATK from it. That would have interesting ramifications for Maha Vailo and Armed Samurai - Ben Kei as they would get the ATK Boosts for having Equip cards Equipped but not the Base boost from the card itself.Glittersword 21:18, October 17, 2009 (UTC)
