Herald of Rainbow Light

Fairy/Synchro/Effect
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters
(1) When a monster is sent from either player’s hand or Deck to the Graveyard, banish it instead of sending it to the Graveyard. (2) When an Effect Monster’s effect, or a Spell/Trap Card, is activated: You can Tribute this card; negate that activation, and if you do destroy it. (3) If this card is sent to the Graveyard: You can add 1 Ritual Monster or Ritual Spell Card from your Deck to your hand.

600/1000

 

The first thing I thought of when I saw this card was, "I forgot Herald of Orange Light was a tuner." What a silly thought that was

Anyways, discuss?

It doesn't look like it has a place anywhere. Decks that run Ritual Monsters usually can't/won't want to make it. Negation is sweet, but with these stats it can be run over by practically anything. And the first effect is just counterproductive.

Looks good for Cosmics.

I'd say yes, except it's in the air.
 
You only have 1 Level 4 slot, and it's between Balmung and Herald.
 
Balmung's a 21/8 that "can't die by battle" and helps the theme of the deck by being a placeholder/quick summon during their turn. It makes it harder for them to remove it as intended.
 
This is a 6/10 that makes the Shaddoll matchup a lot easier, but doesn't really do anything else overall. It just... sits. It can sack itself, but if you're making this, you don't WANT it to be removed.
 
It all boils down to if you run a card that helps you overall and in general, or a card that helps in one bad matchup but doesn't do anything in most places other than serve as a 1-time negation.
 
Probably Herald in the long run, but the struggle is still real.
 
Also, this potentially confirms the fact that Heralds are, apparently, Heralds of Sophia, which was said sometime before. Makes sense, because Saphira is blatant Herald support, without being a Fairy, and is close enough to Saphira. If they get a Fusion, it's for sure.
 
Removing Perfection + Saphira is a pain in the ass, btw.
