Recommended Posts

Yay, pointless milestone, yay!

A very underrated card in my opinion, I try to fit it in my ED whenever I can, but specially in slow decks. I wish they were more generic control options for Rank 4, but I'll stick with this until that happens. Also, it sucks a lot that it ended up being a prize card.

It is overrated by the average player, not underrated. It's better now, but it's mediocre at best because it's too weak and too costly.

 

It's only decent now because EEK is a thing and it can hard counter it if you plan ahead or make it at the end of a turn. But even then, most of the time if you're overlaying post BP, you can probably set up instead.

 

Most things that R4 didn't have or want space for thsi before. They still mostly don't want it because space is so fuckign tight.

 

It's not a bad card, but not an amazing one either,  especially with that Damage Step restriction.

Veiler covers Crystal Bone and Monk, but you lose a card from your hand in the process. The fact that your opponent doesn't know it's coming makes room for outplayathons. Whereas this is purely defensive, so your opponent is free to play around it.

 

I think a generic Dolkka with a single charge and without the pop would have been unbalanced...

The fact they released a Number in the TCG as a prize card annoys me. That means barely anyone has it, and it's worth a fortune until the reprint. And who knows how long that'll be?

 

On the plus side, No.106 is only decent, not amazing, and more recent Rank 4s are better.

 

Collectors can still get the OCG card though

I agree especially since the prize cards from 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 haven't been reprinted as well.

Yeah, that's exactly what I did.

I dont happen to know what the previous prize cards were. Weren't they cards that aren't even legal? If so, that just makes Giant Hand even more annoying because it's a card you CAN use in a Duel and that a bunch of people would want.

 

Digvorzhak is usable as a R5. Also, aren't Sarc used to be a prize card?

 

Oh, and Blood Mefist.
