Card Details
Character Background
Melmetal GX in SM Black Star Promos is a sturdy Metal attacker that naturally leans into a value-control game plan, buying time while it scales into a devastating closer. Hard Coat’s flat 30 damage reduction makes it awkward for many two-hit breakpoints, especially when paired with healing or defensive support, so it thrives in decks that want to outlast rather than race. Metal Blast is the real pressure point: at 110 base plus 20 for each Metal Energy attached, it rewards steady acceleration and can quickly become a clean knockout tool once your board is established. Iron Force GX is the swing turn, letting you reload from the discard and immediately power up future Metal Blasts; cards that discard Energy early, like manual attachments plus recovery engines, are excellent partners. Build it with Metal acceleration and Energy recursion to maximize its tempo advantage and force the opponent to answer a continually growing threat.
