Dmwiki.net:	Article

Finisher is a slang term for a card that has the ability to declare the result of the game by itself. Usually, these cards have the ability to end the duel with their owners' victory once they appear. While the term usually refers to Creatures, Spells and Cross Gear cards may be included, too.

Details[]

In Duel Masters, a finisher contains the following traits:

Capable of preventing any chance of reversal by removing your opponent's mana or hand, preventing his actions, or preventing him to use Shield Triggers.
Has extreme offensive prowess, such as Speed Attacker or Come Into Play mass removal.
Can cause Deck-outs in an instant.
Can create alternate win conditions.
May or may not have any real counters.

As most finishers in today's Metagame are very hard, or even impossible to counter, it would be wise to delay the opponent's finishers by using methods such as Discard before you can bring out your own.

Do not confuse a finisher with a fatty, as despite most finishers have more than 6000 power, fatty is only used to refer to a creature's power and not it's abilities whereas finisher is usually used to refer to the opposite.
