Simply being a Tuner does not make a monster into an effect monster - it is not specifically an effect monster subtype, unlike Spirit or Toon. There are effect monsters who are Tuners, but there are also Normal Monsters with the Tuner subtype too, these are in no way counted as effect monsters.
they are monsters that you use 2 synchro summon
A "non-Tuner" monster is a monster that does not have "/TUNER" listed next to their monster type. Basically, all monster cards are considered to be "non-Tuner" as long as they do not state they are a Tuner in their card type.
Almost all Synchro Monsters specify "One Tuner + one or more non-Tuner monsters" or similar. However XX-Saber Gottoms does not, as well as a Tuner, he just requires Earth monsters as components, these can be Earth attribute Tuners if you wish. Also, Red Nova Dragon has two tuners as a requirement.
An accel synchro summon works when you tuner your synchro monsters with a synchro tuner monster, creating a more powerful monster. There is only one of these monsters (as of December 13, 2009) that exists. But the number will grow. Hope this helps! :) A second form of an accel synchro summon works is when you have a synchro monster, you can use two tuner monster to accel synchro it or in other words double tuner your monster to form a new one stronger version of it.
Generally, no. Synchro Summoning is almost always done on the field similar to Contact Fusion. There are some exceptions to this rule such as the card: Eccentric Boy. It allows you to use monsters in your Hand as the other Synchro Material Monsters, similar to Polymerization.Eccentric BoyWIND/Spellcaster/Tuner/Effect/Level 3ATK: 800DEF: 200When using this card as a Synchro Material Monster, the other Synchro Material Monster is 1 monster in your hand. The Synchro Monster that used this card as a Synchro Material Monster cannot activate its effects, has its effect(s) negated, and is Removed from Play when it is removed from the field.
You Synchro Summon it using a Lv1 Tuner and a Lv1 monster.
It is not a Tuner monster - Tuner is a monster subtype and will be displayed with the monster's type (Dragon/Warrior, etc) and supertype (Effect/Normal, etc). It is not enough just for it to have Tuner in its name, that is not the definition of a Tuner monster. You are free to use Powered Tuner as a Synchro component, but only as a non-Tuner monster.
No, Phantom of Chaos only takes the monster's name, effect and ATK. Being a Tuner is not part of a card's effect, it is a sub-type, it is what the monster 'is', not what it 'does'.
A "non-Tuner" monster is a monster that does not have "/TUNER" listed next to their monster type. Basically, all monster cards are considered to be "non-Tuner" as long as they do not state they are a Tuner in their card type.
you have to have a tuner monster on the field or the tuner monster it says you need on the synchro monster card and another monster (not a tuner) that when you add the stars from the tuner and non-tuner add up and equal the same number of stars on the synchro monster. Then you send those cards to the graveyard and special summon the synchro monster from where you fusion monsters should be
No, Shooting Star Dragon requires Stardust Dragon and a Tuner Synchro, ie a Synchro Monster who is also a Tuner, like Formula Synchron. Nitro Synchron is a regular Effect Tuner Monster, not a Synchro Tuner Monster, so is an invalid Tuner for Shooting Star Dragon. About the only way around it is to have something like Armory Arm and Lightwave Tuning to turn itself into a Tuner, and then a name-changing monster gain the name of Stardust Dragon, but either way it must have a Stardust Dragon and a Tuner Synchro with a combined level total of 10.
There is currently no way to remove the 'Tuner' subtype from a monster.
The Tuner Monster with the highest ATK and Level is Emissary from Pandemonium (7/2600/1800).
Building a good Tuner/Synchro deck centers on getting monsters out on the field as fast as you can to Synchro Summon. If you want to specialize in which Synchro Monster(s) you want to summon you can still start with these simple card combos:"Summoner Monk" - By using its effect you can quickly Special Summon a Level 4 Tuner monster from your deck then Synchro Summon for a Level 8 monster."Rescue Cat" - Use its effect to Special Summon a Level 3 or lower Tuner and a Level 3 or lower non-Tuner. Note that so far "X-Saber Airbellum" is the only Beast Tuner monster you will be able to summon."Maurading Captain" - Special Summon another Warrior Tuner to Synchro Summon."Black Salvo" - Special Summon a Level 4 DARK Machine and quickly summon a Level 7 Synchro Monster.
Magna Drago is a Tuner monster that is capable of Tuning to any non-Tuner monster that you may have on the field. Very few Tuners have a specific requirement on what they Tune (examples are Torapart and Debris Dragon).
A Synchro Monster is a type of Monster card kept in the Extra Deck. To summon it, you must have a Tuner monster on your field along with enough non-Tuner monsters to equal the level of the monster in question. Take Stardust Dragon for example; it's a Level 8 Synchro Monster, so you need a Tuner monster and any number of other monsters whose Level combined with the Tuner's equals 8. Then you can just send those cards to the Graveyard to summon the Synchro monster.
No, unless an effect specifically says otherwise, the Synchro Components must all be face-up on your side of the field. Eccentric Boy is a Tuner who when used as a Synchro Component, the other monster is one monster from your hand.
No, it requires a a Tuner Synchro monster, meaning a Synchro monster who is also a Tuner, such as Formula Synchron. It is not asking for a 'Synchron' monster (although Formula Synchron happens to be one too) Quickdraw Synchron is not an appropriate Tuner for it because it is not a Synchro Monster.
