Felice, Lightsworn Archer

[Airride]

Beast-Warrior/Tuner

Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. When this card is sent from your Deck to the Graveyard by a monster effect: Special Summon this card from the Graveyard. You can Tribute this card, then target 1 monster your opponent controls; destroy that target, then send the top 3 cards of your Deck to the Graveyard.

Now, I don't mean to be biased or anything, being that it's BASICALLY my favorite card, art wise, but...

This is actually pretty good addition to Lightsworns. At 1, of course.

If you run 2+ Wulf, this can EASILY replace one of them - I've only had a handful of Instances where I wished I had a Wulf instead of her.

She can be summoned off any LS Effect (Especially Raiden's! Having her in the Main Phase is SUper Helpful sometimes) or Chain, Which is actually really neat. The only cards you lose getting her off are Recharge and Charge, since Foolish is not random milling, and you don't need to mill her unless you need another name for something.

Speaking of that, that's what she can be a lot of the time - Another name for JD, Lightrays, and ESPECIALLY Minerva. That 8th name has won me many a game.

And hell, Even if you draw her, just like Wulf, that's free Lumina or Recharge fodder, which is actually helpful sometimes.

Even then, having tuner status is INCREDIBLY helpful if you can't get Raiden early, and besides that, She gets under BTH, so if You need to BRD the field with Lumina, you can guarantee it.

And if She's summoned by her own effect, 2000 if fairly Beefy, and she can survive until next turn, where she can either tune for something good, or use her surprisingly good second effect to pop something and mill. This has come in handy a number of times - It can turn lumina or chain into a Pop, which helps to push when You run out of Michaels, or you don't have enough life to use them.

 

All in all, all I'm saying is - She's pretty good if you have the room, and use Wulf already. And she has a sweet ass.

 

Discuss.

It's a rather amusing card, considering it's basically Exiled Force + slight mill.

Yeah, I had to find room in my Extra Deck for another Lavalval Chain since you can essentially pop a monster and mill 3 with it's effect now.

 

Its really good.

Nobody read my article. OK then.

 

Felice rewards you for playing combos, or just for milling hard, with a pop and an extra mill. It's also recyclable with Lumina. However, a Lightsworn monster that can't be Normal Summoned is dead in the hand (the main weakness of Lightsworns) and slows down the approach to Judgment Dragon.

 

3 Solar Recharge? 3 Lumina? Beckoning Light? Monster Reincarnation? If it can't be Normal Summoned I don't care if it's Disk Commander, it will screw up your Lightsworns' consistency.
