Feels like Konami is going back to the basics with this, but honestly, I like it.  Playstyle is easy to understand: continually popping cards by spamming your boss monster over and over.  Dodging effects, coming back with a vengeance, it's pretty cute.  That continuous trap even reminds me of Ghostrick-Go-Round a little.

Besides those notable Level 7 LIGHT Dragons, I wanna also note that "Dwarf Star Dragon Planeter" could also be useful since it can search out any Level 7 LIGHT or DARK monster.  It's generally too slow for most other decks that would normally use it, but given the continuous trap, it could work?  I could totally see "Honest" being run in triplicate just because of the continuous spell.

EDIT: Okay, I'ma be degenerate for just a sec. I wanna be crushed by Rayel's thighs.

I like the new Seiraryu, and the support is just generic enough to be good. I think my big issue here is that it feels like there's just one or two more cards that feel a bit redundant. It's hard to single any out in particular, but they probably could have been a bit more ambitious with other effects besides looping Seiraryu.
