This is the new battle fader its earth type so i can work well with gigantes and ive recently discovered it works great with machina gadgets u can discard it 2 end the battle phase or discard it for machina fortress since its a machine type i am very pleased with this card since b4 i was running 2 battle faders but had trouble a couple times when they got disarded instead of removed from play when my opponenet used hand destruction so that really screwed me over with my solidarity since swift scarecrow is a machine type that completely kills this weakness i would suggest using it if u run machina gadgets.

It's effect seems like Fader's, but i think Fader is much better... :/

ti is faders effect except fader stays out on the field and is removed from play wen destroyed on the field but if ur running a deck with machina fortress then it kicks ass cause u can dump it for him plus its a common

It isn't weaker than Battle Fader. It's just as GP said, Battled Fader stays on the field but is removed from the game when it is removed from the field. Swift Scarecrow doesn't stay on the field, but it actually hits the graveyard.

Drill Warrior anyone?

@sin: I haven't said that scarecrow sucks, but it's just good by it's way...

Fader: A useful tribute fodder for Monarchs. Staple in most Stall Decks
Scarecrow: Use it's effect & afterwards, activate Solidarity OR send it to grave to summon Fortress (when you send & Fortress itself). All those two combos in Machinas.

I just reccomend Fader, coz i mostly use Monarch decks :P

A both weaker and stronger version of Fader. As GADGET PRO said it can be used in Machinas because it doesn't stop Solidarity. This could also see play in Final Coundown decks as it's another form of stalling.

Swift Sacrecrow is as useful as fader in my opinion! I mean Fader is sp. summoned on field and we can use it for Tributes or synchro next turn! Where Swift is send to the grave so we can recycle it with drill warrior and stuff! <3

thats actually a really good idea i never thought to recycle it with drill warrior

@ Sin: You can actually discard Dandyllion & in the Standby Phase take the Swift Scarecrow. I don't think you would take dandy.. Only if you had Quickdraw in hand. .-.

yeah i agree with train, it's just as useful as fader, but has slightly different uses. it is indeed amazing with drill, since aggro decks easily bypass a dandy token or two to attack your lifepoints. downside: you generate no advantage if you constantly recycle scarecrow

Harper is right! But it all depends on the situation!
