DB1-EN160
Mystic Lamp
DARK / Spellcaster / Level 1 / ATK 400 / DEF 300
This monster can attack your opponent's Life Points directly.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Rubbing this lamp will not bring out a genie as the lamp would probably break in your hands for being so weak.
DB1-EN159
Suijin
WATER / Aqua / Level 7 / ATK 2500 / DEF 2400
You can only activate this card's effect during your opponent's damage calculation. Make the ATK of a monster attacking this card 0 during damage calculation. This effect can only be used once as long as this card remains face-up on the field.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: This one gets 2 stars because it has combos with A Legendary Ocean to make it a Level 6 2700 ATK, 2600 DEF Monster, which isn't too bad.
DB1-EN158
Kazejin
WIND / Spellcaster / Level 7 / ATK 2400 / DEF 2200

COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: While his effect may come in handy, it can only activate once and his 2 tributes aren't worth his stats.
DB1-EN156
Elegant Egotist
Normal Spell
You can only activate this card when there are 1 or more "Harpie Lady" on the field. Special Summon 1 "Harpie Lady" or "Harpie Lady Sisters" from your hand or your Deck.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Well, since the card needed for its activation and the card summoned by its activation aren't playable, why should this one? It isn't.
DB1-EN155
Petit Moth
EARTH / Insect / Level 1 / ATK 300 / DEF 200
This small but deadly creature is better off avoided.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Certainly not deadly with stats of just (300/200) and it is better off avoided, not for being deadly (which it isn't) but for not being playable.
DB1-EN154
Masked Sorcerer
DARK / Spellcaster / Level 4 / ATK 900 / DEF 1400
When this card inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points, draw 1 card from your Deck.

DB1-EN152
Big Eye
DARK / Fiend / Level 4 / ATK 1200 / DEF 1000
FLIP: See the 5 cards from the top of your Deck, arrange them in any order desired, and replace them on top of the Deck.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: It lets you rearrange the next 5 cards of your deck, which can be helpful so you put your better cards up front but there will be times where your choices aren't so easy.
DB1-EN151
White Magical Hat
LIGHT / Spellcaster / Level 3 / ATK 1000 / DEF 700
When this card inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points, your opponent discards 1 card randomly from his/her hand.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: A Monster this weak has smaller chances of dealing damage than it has ATK and or DEF! Don't run this card.
DB1-EN150
Mask of Darkness
DARK / Fiend / Level 2 / ATK 900 / DEF 400
FLIP: Select 1 Trap Card from your Graveyard. Add the selected card to your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 2

DB1-EN149
Armored Zombie
DARK / Zombie / Level 3 / ATK 1500 / DEF 0
This warrior blindly swings a deadly blade with devastating force.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: With 0 DEF, his armor must be very thin and his playability is even thinner.
DB1-EN148
Cocoon of Evolution
EARTH / Insect / Level 3 / ATK 0 / DEF 2000
You can equip this card from your hand as an Equip Spell Card to a face-up "Petit Moth" on the field. If equipped, the ATK and DEF of "Cocoon of Evolution" is applied to "Petit Moth".

Comments: It has enough to survive longer than most Monsters in this set but its stats won't help it against GAF or GO.
DB1-EN147
Kojikocy
EARTH / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1200
A man-hunter with powerful arms that can crush boulders.
COMMON

COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: A horrible card that needs an even worse card.
DB1-EN145
Harpie Lady
WIND / Winged Beast / Level 4 / ATK 1300 / DEF 1400
This human-shaped animal with wings is beautiful to watch but deadly in battle.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Stats of (1300/1400) are hardly considered "deadly in battle" so don't use this.
DB1-EN144
Larvae Moth
EARTH / Insect / Level 2 / ATK 500 / DEF 400
This monster cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by Tributing "Petit Moth" on the 2nd of your turns after "Petit Moth" has been equipped with "Cocoon of Evolution".

DB1-EN143
Armored Lizard
EARTH / Reptile / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1200
A lizard with a very tough hide and a vicious bite.
COMMON
Rating: 1

DB1-EN142
Summoned Skull (original artwork)
DARK / Fiend / Level 6 / ATK 2500 / DEF 1200
A fiend with dark powers for confusing the enemy. Among the Fiend-Type monsters, this monster boasts considerable force.

DB1-EN141

A dragon commonly found guarding mountain fortresses. Its signature attack is a sweeping dive from out of the blue.
