Gottoms' Emergency Call

Gottoms' Emergency Call was first introduced in the 2009 Starter Deck: Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, a product designed to introduce players to the mechanics of the 5D's era of the card game. The card serves as a specialized support piece for the X-Saber archetype, reflecting the strategy's focus on swarm tactics and graveyard recovery. It was printed as a common rarity, consistent with the accessible nature of starter deck releases meant for a wide audience of players and beginners.

The design of the card features the X-Saber leader, Gottoms, calling for reinforcements, which thematically reinforces the trap card's function of special summoning monsters from the graveyard. Like many cards in the early 5D's era, the art style follows the high-fantasy aesthetic typical of the franchise. It was well-received by players building X-Saber decks, as it provided a critical defensive and utility option to maintain field presence during competitive duels.
