Number 9! Top 10 Synchro Monsters Level 5 or less

We continue the Countdown for the Top Level 5 or less Synchro Monsters with a really good Synchro that is rarely played to to the very specific Summoning requirements. I am talking for Frozen Fitzgerald, Number 9 in our list.

Since he needs a Dark-Attribute Tuner and a Beast-Type Non-Tuner there are only a handful of ways to summon him. As a Level 5, my mind instantly goes to Junk Synchron and since Junk Synchron is Dark, it can fulfill the requirements for this Frozen Fitzgerald's Synchro Summon. Now it reamains to find a Level 2 Beast-Type. In my previous Deck Profile I have talked about this card in Ojama Decks. Not only it's a Dark, in complete contrast with the Light-Attributed Ojamas, making the addition of Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning easier but also can use any Ojama in the grave in order to summon Frozen Fitzgerald. Also since many Ojama Decks use Ojama Country to reverse the stats of Monsters on the field, he remains at the same stats since his Attack and Defence are equal (and very high for a Level 5).

Number 9: Frozen Fitzgerald


But the most common pair to summon Frozen Fitzgerald in Synchro Decks like Junk Doppel is Junk Synchron and Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter. They work quite well together anyway, the second filling the Graveyard with usable targets for the first, while also being a target. But despite it's tough summoning conditions he has two great effects and high ATK and DEF for it's level. His first effects allows him to be protected by cards like Dimensional Prison and Mirror Force which despite they rarely enter the competitive scene of Decklists yet there are still an active danger. The second effect is even better: when Fitzgerald is alone in your field and it is destroyed by battle you get to revive him in Defence Position simply by discarding a card. This mean that you can suicide him in Stardust Dragon, Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En, Naturia Barkion, Leviathan Dragon etc. destoying th opposing threat at the cost of a card in hand.

Frozen Fitgerald despite being rarely summoned in Duels is one of those cards that draw attention and the opponent wants to get around immediatly. Ergo it is a great bait for cards like Solemn Warning allowing you to play make your bigger plays after the way is cleared. All in all Frozen Fitzgerald is nice little Synchro with decent effects, great stats and tough summoning requirements totaling at a good yet underplayed Synchro.
