A CLOSER look at Asmodeus

This card cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck or Graveyard. Once per turn, you can send 1 Fairy-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard. When this card you control is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, Special Summon 1 "Asmo Token" (Fairy-Type/DARK/Level 5/ATK 1800/DEF 1300) and 1 "Deus Token" (Fairy-Type/DARK/Level 3/ATK 1200/DEF 1200). An "Asmo Token" cannot be destroyed by card effects. A "Deus Token" cannot be destroyed by battle.
8/3000/2500/Dark/Fairy

Okey. Lets take a NEW look at it.
Level 8. Dark. Oh damn look at that right there. Trade in fodder and Allure fodder.
Allure.

This card cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck or Graveyard.

Dont read this as "I cannot be special summoned." Read this as "I CAN be specail summoned from HAND, and RFG."
Thats right, RFG. Allure it off then DDR it back. Amazing stuff.

Once per turn, you can send 1 Fairy-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard.

To be honest, I totally missed this last time. I didnt even open the damn card and look at it. only listened to internet. Lesson learned: Internet leaves out stupid things.
This effect is nice, if you can line up an Asmodeus with an Athena right next to it, and grab to your hand an honest from your deck a turn. maybe this will help with hte last angel for Christia or DAD. But I dont see it being useful.
Okey MAYBE the Sky Scourges. Then, if you ARE running them, WHATS A DARK FAIRY doing in your deck?

When this card you control is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, Special Summon 1 "Asmo Token" (Fairy-Type/DARK/Level 5/ATK 1800/DEF 1300) and 1 "Deus Token" (Fairy-Type/DARK/Level 3/ATK 1200/DEF 1200). An "Asmo Token" cannot be destroyed by card effects. A "Deus Token" cannot be destroyed by battle.

Key Word: Graveyard.
IE: Nothing will work if its Bottomless'd.
As for the 2 tokens, I see Asmo being run over VERY quickly, but Deus lasting for quite some time(2-3 turns)
I actually think these two tokens will be, 70% of the time, tribute fodder, or blown up VERY quickly.

Okey. now you see all 3 parts of the effect.

Good?
No, not really.
