Obnoxious Celtic Guard
Attrib: Earth
Type: Warrior/Effect
Level:4
Atk: 1400
Def: 1200
This card is not destroyed by battle when this card battles with a monster with an ATK of 1900 or more. (Damage calculation is applied normally)

Notable Rulings:

-"Obnoxious Celtic Guard"’s effect looks at the ATK during Damage Calculation. So if he’s WIND and is attacked by "Insect Soldiers of the Sky", their ATK is 2000 during Damage Calculation and "Obnoxious Celtic Guard" is not destroyed. Or if an 1800 monster attacks and you use "Rush Recklessly" to increase the ATK to 2500 during the Damage Step, "Obnoxious Celtic Guardian" is not destroyed.

YES. This guy. One of my most favorite Yu-Gi-Oh! monsters. Sadly, quite unplayable in today's meta, given that a 700-ATK window is quite wide for monsters to punch through (and there's quite a lot of really good cards nowadays that are between 1200 and 1900 ATK).

Traditional: 0/5 ('Cause really, everything but FTKs are basically 0/5 in Traditional.)
Advanced: 2/5
Personal bias: 9001/5

It's a good card. It used to be better and still can be good. Bring an earth warrior gives it support like crazy, but you're missing the fact that it's the same monster but now with an effect....

4/5 cause it does have some protection but it's alittle low on it's stats. That can be easily fixed, but still.

I remember when I used to use him. I had gotten the secret rare when it was released in the tin (Still have the tin, but the card was stolen). I used to equip him with the Horn of Light, which gave him an 800 def boost. Mage Power was another favorite since I lacked United we Stand at the time. With me preferring an offensive focus this card doesn't have as much use to me, but he makes great for an emergency defense. Like Warrain said, he's still a great card, but it's not as great. By the way, I'm starting to think the theme is better forms of similar cards.

Despair from the Dark= better of Fear from the Dark
Obnoxious Celtic Guard= better of Celtic Guardian

Then again, unless Mefist & Solar Flare weren't part of this week, I could be wrong. I don't know any other cards that are similar to these two. Maybe it's just old favs?

I like this guy, him + command knight can make a nice lock  since hiss atk becomes 1800 meaning to beat it you most likely need 1900 which is were he can't be destroyed. He also works well with solidarity and the A forces. He's not insanely powerful but he's a nice little trick and i like the art.
