COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Between this guy and Airknight Parshath, I'd rather use AK as he doesn't return to the hand during the End Phase.

Yamata Dragon
FIRE / Dragon-Type Spirit / Level 7 / ATK 2600 / DEF 3100

SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: At least this card was more worthy of the Super Rare treatment and is also worthy of 2 stars for the drawing more cards effect.
DB2-EN178
Susa Soldier

SUPER RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: The fact that this guy was bumped up to Super Rare bugs me. What was wrong with it being a Rare, UDE? Couldn't you have found a card that was, I don't know PLAYABLE to be a Super Rare?
DB2-EN177
Yata-Garasu

EARTH / Rock-Type Spirit / Level 4 / ATK 1200 / DEF 1700
This card cannot be Special Summoned. This card returns to the owner's hand during the End Phase of the turn that this card is Normal Summoned or flipped face-up. If this card is Normal Summoned or flipped face-up, see 1 card on the top of your Deck during your next Draw Phase before you draw, and return the card to the top or the bottom of your Deck.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Very bad stats and having to return to the hand during the End Phase is even worse.
DB2-EN174
Twin-Headed Behemoth
WIND / Dragon / Level 3 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1200
If this card is destroyed and sent from the field to the Graveyard, it will be Special Summoned during the End Phase with ATK and DEF of 1000. You can only use this effect once in the Duel.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Had his effect been able to be used more than once, I'd surely rate him higher but that isn't the case so he gets 2/5.
DB2-EN173
Airknight Parshath
LIGHT / Fairy / Level 5 / ATK 1900 / DEF 1400
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. When this card inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points, draw 1 card from your Deck.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: The tribute hurts this card as even Spear Dragon doesn't need tributes and has basically the same effect.
DB2-EN172
Woodland Sprite
EARTH / Plant / Level 3 / ATK 900 / DEF 400
Send 1 Equip Card equipped to this card to the Graveyard. Inflict 500 points of damage to your opponent's Life Points.

DB2-EN171
Injection Fairy Lily
EARTH / Spellcaster / Level 3 / ATK 400 / DEF 1500

Comments: If you can be willing to risk losing a duel, then fine run her but I wouldn't count on her all the time.
DB2-EN170
Gradius' Option
LIGHT / Machine / Level 1 / ATK ? / DEF ?
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This monster can only be Special Summoned by selecting 1 face-up "Gradius" on your side of the field. The ATK and DEF of this card becomes the same as the ATK and DEF of the selected "Gradius". If the selected "Gradius" is removed from the field, destroy this card.

Comments: I have another option for this Gradius: Throw him away!

If there is a non-LIGHT monster on your side of the field, destroy this face-up card.
RARE

DARK / Zombie / Level 5 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1400
As long as this monster remains face-up on the field, the controller of this card selects the targets of their opponent's attacks.

Comments: At least he can let you chose what Monsters your opponent attacks but that's really about it.
DB2-EN167
Serpentine Princess
WATER / Reptile / Level 4 / ATK 1400 / DEF 2000

Comments: He's all out of fibers since his banning made him useless.
DB2-EN165
Luster Dragon #2
WIND / Dragon / Level 6 / ATK 2400 / DEF 1400
