Rating: 1
Comments: That's some weak gunfire this dragon has based on what it can do. Find a better card.
DB2-EN159
A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon
Normal Spell
Return to the owner's hand 1 face-up Level 5 or higher Dragon-Type monster on your side of the field and destroy all Spell and Trap Cards on the field.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Use Heavy Storm over this card.

COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Stick to Royal Decree instead.
DB2-EN157
Troop Dragon
WIND / Dragon / Level 2 / ATK 700 / DEF 800
If this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard as a result of battle, select and Special Summon 1 "Troop Dragon" from your Deck to your side of the field. Then shuffle your Deck.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: I gave him an extra star because you can choose the mode of your new TD, unlike the "searcher" Monsters.
DB2-EN156
Gray Wing
WIND / Dragon / Level 3 / ATK 1300 / DEF 700
Discard 1 card from your hand during Main Phase 1. This monster can attack twice during the Battle Phase of this turn.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Use Mataza the Zapper instead as he doesn't require anything for his effect, which is the same as this card's.
DB2-EN155
Cave Dragon
WIND / Dragon / Level 4 / ATK 2000 / DEF 100
If there is a monster on your side of the field, you cannot Normal Summon this monster. In addition, if there are no Dragon-Type monsters except this card on your side of the field, this card cannot declare an attack.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: This card is so bad that I would almost suggest using Giant Orc or GAF but neither of those cards are playable either so find a better Monster.
DB2-EN154
Fiend Skull Dragon
WIND / Dragon-Type Fusion / Level 5 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1200
"Cave Dragon" + "Lesser Fiend"
A Fusion Summon of this monster can only be conducted with the above Fusion Material Monsters. As long as this card remains face-up on the field, negate the effects of Flip Effect Monsters. Negate the effects of a Trap Card that targets this card and destroy it.
RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: For the most part, horrible Monsters make horrible Fusion Monsters and this guy is no exception as Dark Ruler Ha Des has the better version of this effect and only needs himself to use it so use him instead.
DB2-EN153
Spirit Ryu
WIND / Dragon / Level 4 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1000
You can only activate this effect during your Battle Step, if this card battles during your turn. Discard 1 Dragon-Type monster from your hand to the Graveyard to increase the ATK and DEF of this card by 1000 points until the End Step.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: There is no place for this card except in Dragon decks for obvious reasons so keep him there.
DB2-EN152
Spear Dragon
WIND / Dragon / Level 4 / ATK 1900 / DEF 0
When this card attacks with an ATK that is higher than the DEF of a Defense Position monster, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent’s Life Points. If this card attacks, it is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Damage Step.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: It may have 1900 ATK but it also has 0 DEF and is changed to Defense Mode after attacking. Its other effect is the only reason keeping it at 2/5.
DB2-EN151
Tyrant Dragon
FIRE / Dragon / Level 8 / ATK 2900 / DEF 2500
When there is a monster on your opponent's side of the field after this monster's first attack of your Battle Phase, this monster can attack once again during the same Battle Phase. In addition, negate the effect of a Trap Card that targets this card and destroy it. If this card is Special Summoned from the Graveyard by another card's effect, you must Tribute 1 Dragon-Type monster on your side of the field.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: IMO, this card is Ultra Rare because it gets an additional attack if there is another Monster on the opponent's field after its first attack as everything else would most likely bump it down to a Rare or Common.
DB2-EN150
Emergency Provisions
Quick-Play Spell
Send Spell or Trap Cards on your side of the field to the Graveyard except this card. Increase your Life Points by 1000 points for each card sent to the Graveyard.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: The major thing that hurts this card is you have to send your own Spell or Trap Cards to your Graveyard to gain the lifepoints.
DB2-EN149
The Warrior Returning Alive
Normal Spell
Select 1 Warrior-Type monster in your Graveyard and add it to your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Retrieve any decent Warrior-Type Monster from your Graveyard, if you can find any besides Dark Blade.
DB2-EN148
Array of Revealing Light
Field Spell
Declare 1 Type of monster. Any monster of the declared Type cannot declare an attack during the turn it is Normal Summoned, Flip Summoned or Special Summoned.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: This card is so bad that even Vengeful Bog Spirit is better as it stops every Monster from attacking right away.
DB2-EN147
Reinforcement of the Army
Normal Spell
Add 1 Level 4 or lower Warrior-Type monster from your Deck to your hand. Then shuffle your Deck.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: You can search out one of the few playable Warrior-Type Monsters like Dark Blade but that's about it.
DB2-EN146
The A. Forces
Continuous Spell
Increase the ATK of all Warrior-Type monsters on your side of the field by 200 points for each face-up Warrior-Type and Spellcaster-Type monster on your side of the field.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: There aren't many decent Warrior-Type Monsters to make this card get much use but maybe later there will be.
DB2-EN145
Dragon Manipulator
EARTH / Warrior / Level 3 / ATK 700 / DEF 800
FLIP: Take control of 1 face-up Dragon-Type monster on your opponent's side of the field until the end of the End Phase.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: He's just as bad as Shadow Tamer.
DB2-EN144
Shadow Tamer
EARTH / Warrior / Level 3 / ATK 800 / DEF 700
FLIP: Take control of 1 face-up Fiend-Type monster on your opponent's side of the field until the end of the End Phase.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: First of all, you can only choose a Fiend-Type Monster. Second, you don't get to keep the Monster very long and finally, your choices will be slim most likely.
DB2-EN143
Exiled Force
EARTH / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1000
Tribute this face-up card. Destroy 1 monster on the field.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: You lose a Monster just to destroy another Monster. Overall just bad.
DB2-EN142
Frontier Wiseman
EARTH / Spellcaster / Level 3 / ATK 1600 / DEF 800
As long as this card remains face-up on your side of the field, negate the effects of Spell Cards that target face-up Warrior-Type monsters on your side of the field and destroy the Spell Cards.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: His stats don't allow him to stay on the field very long so you might as well not put him in your deck.
DB2-EN141
Mysterious Guard
EARTH / Spellcaster / Level 3 / ATK 800 / DEF 1200
FLIP: Return 1 face-up monster on the field to the top of its owner's Deck. Also, if there is a face-up Warrior-Type monster on your side of the field, you can return another face-up monster to its owner's hand.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: What's even more mysterious than this guard is the fact that he was even reprinted in the first place! He wasn't hard to get back in LOD and isn't even playable!
