Eggplant Sapphire

An Eggplant Sapphire is a Combo reanimation decktype that uses the synergy between Dandy Eggplant and Inferno Gate to quickly send a powerful creature to grave, in this case Bolmeteus Sapphire Dragon and revive it to cause massive damage to your opponent.

Details
During Phoenix Saga, the release of DM-19 Spectacle Nova brought a utterly new card to the game, Inferno Gate. Because of it's restrictionless revival capabilities the card became a meta favorite. And with earlier released Bolmeteus and Dandy Eggplant, created a devastating metadeck to rise, for the first time in history  by featurig reanimation.

This deck was primarily a DFN deck, with Nature to help in mana boost and recovery, Fire for more powerful creatures and Darkness for removal, discard and triggers.

Using the said decktype, players were able to revive Bolmeteus as quickly as fourth turn and burn their opponents shields! Along with Bolmeteus, players began to run many other powerful as well as costly cretures to be revived.

Because of the speed and relentless tricks of the deckype it became quickly one of the most prominent metadecks.

Aftermath
This deck won many Tournaments reliably. Then, because of success of Bolmeteus Sapphire Dragon and his very high shield burn capabilities was "directly" Banned on January 15, 2007, completely destroying the decktype. And later Inferno Gate as well as dandy Eggplant Suffered severe restrictions, leaving the former metadeck only in Duel Masters' history.
