ATK/0 DEF/0

2 “HERO” Normal Monsters
Must be Fusion Summoned. Gains ATK/DEF equal to the combined original Levels of the materials used for its Fusion Summon × 300. When this card destroys an opponent monster by battle: You can Tribute this card; Special Summon 1 “Elemental HERO” Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, ignoring its Summoning Conditions, but it cannot attack monsters with an equal or lower Level than it.

Two normal Heroes fuse together to become Elemental HERO Grandmerge! His title suggests the powerful merger of two powers. Elemental HERO Grandmerge is a fusion monster with two effects. This fusion monster is an additional option for the extra deck with Heroes.

First Effect:

The offensive capabilities of Elemental HERO Grandmerge depend on the fusion materials. This fusion monster gains 300 ATK and DEF times the total levels of the fusion materials. The best strategy is fusing two normal Heroes with high levels.

The ideal fusion material for the most ATK is two copies of Elemental HERO Elemental Neos. This normal monster is level 7 and two copies equal 14 levels. Therefore, Elemental HERO Grandmerge has an impressive 4,200 ATK. Elemental HERO Grandmerge would be able to deal massive damage and destroy most monsters by battle.

Second Effect:

You may create a wave of offense with the second effect. You may tribute Elemental HERO Grandmerge and special summon any Elemental HERO fusion monster regardless of its summoning conditions. You may special summon powerful cards such as Elemental HERO Sunrise with the ability to add Miracle Fusion from the deck to your hand.

This effect swings a lot of momentum in your favor. This combo may win the game. Your new HERO may deal massive damage from a direct attack if the opponent does not have a monster or any form of protection.

However, the biggest flaw of this ability is the limitations of the new fusion monster’s offensive capabilities. An opponent can play a monster with a low level, and your new HERO cannot battle it. You must remove the opposing monster with a card’s effect or another HERO in battle.

Special Summon these Fusion Monsters with the Second Effect!
