(Secret Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Trust me, you won't have the Token for long and you're wasting a good Extra Deck monster to get it.
                                                    BLRR-EN044
Link Monster
Borrelguard Dragon
DARK | Dragon-Type Link | ATK 3000 | Link-4
Active Link Arrow(s):
Top, Right, Bottom and Bottom-Right
3+ Effect Monsters
Cannot be destroyed by card effects. Once per turn: You can send 1 card from your Spell & Trap Zone to the GY; Special Summon from either GY to your field, 1 monster that was destroyed and sent there this turn, but negate its effects. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can target 1 monster on the field; change it to face-up Defense Position. Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects in response to this effect's activation.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It's a bit better but still takes the same amount of effort. At least it can't be destroyed by card effects and the effects aren't as situational.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN043
Link Monster
Topologic Gumblar Dragon
DARK | Cyberse-Type Link | ATK 3000 | Link-4
Active Link Arrow(s):
Top, Bottom, Left and Right
2+ Effect Monsters
If another monster is Special Summoned to a zone a Link Monster points to, while this monster is on the field: Discard 1 or 2 random cards, then your opponent discards the same number. During your Main Phase, if this card is Extra Linked and your opponent has at least 1 card in their hand: You can make your opponent discard 1 or 2 cards (whichever is higher), then, if they have no more cards in their hand, inflict 3000 damage to them. You can only use 1 "Topologic Gumblar Dragon" effect per turn, and only once that turn.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 1
Effects that depend on what's in the hand better be useful because that number constantly changes. This guy doesn't really have any useful effects as they're highly dependent on what the opponent's hand size is. Plus, making your opponent discard random cards requires you to do it first and that could mean a worse trade-off for you versus your opponent. Really not worth the effort for a Link-4 monster.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN042
Effect Monster
Triggering Wurm
DARK | Dragon |
Level 2 | ATK 600 | DEF 600
If this card is sent to the GY as Link Material for the Link Summon of a DARK monster: You can Special Summon this card from your GY in Attack Position, to your zone that Link Monster points to, but it cannot be used as Link Material. If this card is destroyed or banished by an effect activated by a Link Monster: Draw 1 card. You can only use each effect of "Triggering Wurm" once per turn.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 1
What's the point in making this guy Link Material when reviving it by its effect makes it unable to be Link Material the next time around? Plus it's exceptionally weak and has an effect better executed by other cards like Skelengel.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN041
Effect Monster
Hibernation Dragon
DARK | Dragon | Level 3 | ATK 600 | DEF 1500
If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can target 1 Level 4 or lower Dragon monster in your GY; add it to your hand. While you control no Link Monsters, except the turn this card was sent to the GY: You can banish this card from your GY, then target 1 DARK Dragon Link Monster in your GY; Special Summon it. You can only use each effect of "Hibernation Dragon" once per turn.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
Honestly, it's too weak to be much use on the field so if you're going to bring it out, do so only for the effect or it's pretty much wasted effort.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN040
Fusion Monster
Shura the Combat Star
DARK | Warrior-Type Fusion | Level 12 | ATK 0 | DEF 0
"Idaten the Conqueror Star" + 1 Level 5 or higher Warrior monster
Once per turn, during the Battle Phase (Quick Effect): You can make the ATK of all face-up monsters your opponent currently controls 0. Once per battle, if a monster battles another monster, during damage calculation (Quick Effect): You can make each battling monster gain ATK equal to its own Level x 200, during that damage calculation only. If this Fusion Summoned card you control is destroyed by an opponent's card and sent to your GY: You can Special Summon 1 "Idaten the Conqueror Star" from your Extra Deck. (This is treated as a Fusion Summon.)
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It requires Idaten the Conqueror Star as Fusion Material and is somewhat specific for the other Fusion Material but while its ATK and DEF are 0 to start, it can essentially gain 2400 ATK while the other monster will likely be much less. Plus, when it's destroyed, you can bring out another Idaten the Conqueror Star from your Extra Deck as a Fusion Summon. Still, that ATK boost won't help if it's in Defense Mode and is entirely reliant on its effects to be effective.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN039
Fusion Monster
Idaten the Conqueror Star
LIGHT | Warrior-Type Fusion | Level 10 | ATK 3000 | DEF 2200
2 Level 5 or higher Warrior monsters
If this card is Fusion Summoned: You can add 1 Level 5 Warrior monster from your Deck to your hand. You can only use this effect of "Idaten the Conqueror Star" once per turn. Once per turn: You can discard any number of cards; this card gains 200 ATK for each card discarded. Once per battle, during damage calculation, if this card battles an opponent's monster with an equal or lower Level (Quick Effect): You can make that opponent's monster's ATK 0 during that damage calculation only.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 3
While its Fusion Materials are somewhat specific, they're not so specific that you have to use the likes of Hayate, Kaiki or Tenma. Plus, you can give it a permanent ATK boost each turn and since it's a Level 10 monster, it's bound to get the last effect to kick in, especially since it works during either player's turn.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN038
Effect Monster
Kaiki the Unity Star
LIGHT | Warrior | Level 5 | ATK 1000 | DEF 2100
If this card is Special Summoned (except during the Damage Step): You can pay 500 LP; Fusion Summon 1 Warrior Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters from your hand or field as Fusion Material. During your opponent's turn, if this card is in your GY and you control a Level 5 or higher Warrior monster whose current ATK is different from its original ATK (Quick Effect): You can Special Summon this card. You can only use each effect of "Kaiki the Unity Star" once per turn.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It's pretty easy to Special Summon it using a variety of methods and thus will get to Fusion Summon without Polymerization for a very small fee. Still, it doesn't have a whole lot going for it, especailly since its stats aren't very good for a Level 5 monster and there's only two Fusion Monsters this guy can work with given all the others are generally specific with their Fusion Materials.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN037
Effect Monster
Tenma the Sky Star
LIGHT | Warrior | Level 5 | ATK 2100 | DEF 1000
If only your opponent controls a monster, or if you control an EARTH monster, you can Normal Summon this card without Tributing. If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 Level 5 EARTH Warrior monster from your hand. You can only use this effect of "Tenma the Sky Star" once per turn. Once per turn, when your opponent activates a card or effect that targets a Warrior monster you control (Quick Effect): You can make this card lose exactly 500 ATK, and if you do, negate the activation, and if you do that, destroy that card.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It's basically a carbon copy of Hayate and thus isn't really any better, apart from its DEF.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN036
Effect Monster
Hayate the Earth Star
EARTH | Warrior | Level 5 | ATK 2100 | DEF 0
If only your opponent controls a monster, or if you control a LIGHT monster, you can Normal Summon this card without Tributing. If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 Level 5 LIGHT Warrior monster from your hand. You can only use this effect of "Hayate the Earth Star" once per turn. Once per turn, when your Warrior monster is targeted for an attack: You can make this card lose exactly 500 ATK, and if you do, negate the attack.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
None of the effects, or its DEF make it really all that playable as a whole but it's not so bad that I can only give it 1/5.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN035
Spell Card
Glorious Numbers
Normal Spell
If you control no monsters: Target 1 "Number" Xyz Monster in your GY; Special Summon it, then draw 1 card. You can banish this card from your GY, then target 1 "Number" Xyz Monster you control; attach 1 card from your hand to it as material. You can only use each effect of "Glorious Numbers" once per turn.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It's pretty situational but does have enough perks to make it somewhat worthwhile. However, it's limited to Number Xyz Monsters and you need no monsters out to use it.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN034
Spell Card
Iron Draw
Normal Spell
If you control exactly 2 Machine Effect Monsters and no other monsters: Draw 2 cards. For the rest of this turn after this card resolves, you can only Special Summon once. You can only activate 1 "Iron Draw" per turn.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It can be useful in Machine Decks but not much else. Plus, you only get to Special Summon once for the remainder of the turn it's used.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN033
Xyz Monster
Number 90: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord
LIGHT | Warrior-Type Xyz |
Rank 8 | ATK 2500 | DEF 3000
2 Level 8 monsters
If this card has a "Photon" card as material, it cannot be destroyed by card effects. You can only use each of the following effects of "Number 90: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord" once per turn.
● When an opponent's monster activates its effect (Quick Effect): You can detach 1 material from this card; negate that monster's effect, and if the detached material was a "Galaxy" card, destroy that card.
● During your opponent's turn (Quick Effect): You can take 1 "Photon" or "Galaxy" card from your Deck, and either add it to your hand or attach it to this card as material.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It'll probably mostly be a wall to defend your LP and/or your cards on the field but it can get more Xyz Materials from your Deck during either player's turn or negate an effect for the price of 1 Xyz Material. Still, to gain the very first effect, that requires a Photon card as Xyz Material, which can be achieved but that will limit your options if you want it to have that effect once it's on the field.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN032
Xyz Monster
Number 75: Bamboozling Gossip Shadow
WIND | Spellcaster-Type Xyz | Rank 3 | ATK 1000 | DEF 2600
2+ Level 3 monsters
Once per turn, when an opponent's monster activates its effect (Quick Effect): You can detach 2 materials from this card; the activated effect becomes "both players draw 1 card". You can target 1 other "Number" Xyz Monster you control; attach this card to it as material. (Transfer its materials to that monster.) You can only use this effect of "Number 75: Bamboozling Gossip Shadow" once per turn.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It has some pretty high DEF for such a low Rank and the more materials you use, the better your odds of it being successful. Unfortunately, it also requires 2 Xyz Materials to be detached, which in most cases means you'll be out of them. Thankfully it can replenish that with an equal amount or even more than what it started with.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN031
Xyz Monster
Number 67: Pair-a-Dice Smasher
LIGHT | Fairy-Type Xyz | Rank 5 | ATK 2100 | DEF 2100
2+ Level 5 monsters
Once per turn, during your Main Phase 1: You can detach 2 materials from this card; each player rolls a six-sided die twice. The player with the higher total cannot activate monster effects or declare an attack, until the end of the next turn. Once per turn, if either player rolls a six-sided die (or dice) while this card has material, you can treat one of the results as 7.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 1
No matter how many Xyz Materials you use, it's a gamble that you may lose and it costs you 2 Xyz Materials to do so. Not even making the result 7 is worth it, especially since that'll mean having at least three Xyz Materials to make that happen.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN030
Xyz Monster
Number 27: Dreadnought Dreadnoid
WATER | Machine-Type Xyz | Rank 4 | ATK 2200 | DEF 1000
2+ Level 4 monsters
At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card destroyed an opponent's monster by battle: You can Special Summon from your Extra Deck, 1 Rank 10 or higher Machine Xyz Monster by using this face-up card you control as material. (This is treated as an Xyz Summon. Transfer its materials to the Summoned monster.) You can only use this effect of "Number 27: Dreadnought Dreadnoid" once per turn. If this face-up card on the field would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can detach 1 material from this card instead.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It can not only survive battle by removing an Xyz Material but become Xyz Material for a Rank 10+ Machine-Type Xyz and it's Rank 4 to start with. What's also nice is that its Xyz Materials are unrestrained both in the number and by what mosnters it needs, apart from needing Level 4 monsters. Still, there aren't many good Rank 10 Machine-Type monsters to Rank-Up to with this.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN029
Trap Card
Infinite Light
Continuous Trap
Activate this card by sending 1 face-up "Infinite Machine" from your Spell & Trap Zone to the GY. This face-up card cannot be destroyed by your opponent's card effects. Neither player can target "Timelord" monsters you control with card effects, or return "Timelord" monsters from the field to the Deck. Once per turn, if you control no monsters: You can Special Summon up to 1 "Timelord" monster each from your hand, Deck, and GY, with different names, ignoring their Summoning conditions.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It's a bit better than the other two as it can help swarm the field with Timelords but requires one to be in the hand, Deck and Grave. Plus it still requires using the other two cards.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN028
Trap Card
Infinite Machine
Continuous Trap
Activate this card by sending 1 face-up "Empty Machine" from your Spell & Trap Zone to the GY. Once per turn, this face-up card cannot be destroyed by your opponent's card effects. Once per turn, you can activate 1 of these effects.
● During the Main Phase: Special Summon 1 "Timelord" monster from your hand.
● You can target 1 "Timelord" monster in your GY; shuffle it into the Deck, then, you can Set 1 "Infinite Light" directly from your hand or Deck.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
Another card from the unfinished dubbed episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds but it's not much better than Empty Machine given its effects.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN027
Trap Card
Empty Machine
Continuous Trap
The first time this face-up card on the field would be destroyed by an opponent's card effect, it is not destroyed. Once per turn, you can activate 1 of these effects.
● Discard 1 Level 10 monster; draw 1 card.
● If this is the only card in your Spell & Trap Zone: Target 1 "Timelord" monster in your GY; shuffle it into the Deck, then, you can Set 1 "Infinite Machine" directly from your hand or Deck.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It has some built-in protection and can help keep dead draws out of your hand but you may be better off just Special Summoning them with Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen as they're all Fairy-Type monsters with most having no summoning requirements. Still, if you can't Special Summon, then using the 1st bulleted effect may not be too bad.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN025
Effect Monster
Sandaion, the Timelord
LIGHT | Fairy | Level 10 | ATK 4000 | DEF 4000
Cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck. You can only control 1 "Sandaion, the Timelord". If only your opponent controls a monster, you can Normal Summon this card without Tributing. Cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. Neither player takes battle damage from attacks involving this card. At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card battled: Inflict 2000 damage to your opponent. Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: Shuffle this card into the Deck.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It doesn't have any summoning requirements but its 4000 ATK and DEF are virtually useless when it prevents either player from taking battle damage from its battles. Really, the only reason I give it 2/5 is that it has built-in destruction prevention and that's mitigated by the fact that it returns to the Deck like all the others.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN024
Effect Monster
Gabrion, the Timelord
WATER | Fairy | Level 10 | ATK 0 | DEF 0
Cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck. If you control no monsters, you can Normal Summon this card without Tributing. Cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. You take no battle damage from attacks involving this card. At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card battled: Shuffle as many cards your opponent controls as possible into the Deck(s), then they draw cards equal to the number shuffled into their Main Deck. Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: Shuffle this card into the Deck.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 1
Not much of a point to this guy when you're going to give your opponent more options than they had before and it doesn't deal them any damage.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN023
Effect Monster
Raphion, the Timelord
WIND | Fairy | Level 10 | ATK 0 | DEF 0
Cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck. If you control no monsters, you can Normal Summon this card without Tributing. Cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. You take no battle damage from attacks involving this card. At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card battled: Inflict damage to your opponent equal to the ATK of 1 monster your opponent controls that battled this card this turn. Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: Shuffle this card into the Deck.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It's probably going to be pretty significant damage to your opponent but then we already have cards that can dish out the ATK of the opponent's monster, or any monster.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN022
Effect Monster
Hailon, the Timelord
EARTH | Fairy | Level 10 | ATK 0 | DEF 0
Cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck. If you control no monsters, you can Normal Summon this card without Tributing. Cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. You take no battle damage from attacks involving this card. At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card battled: If your LP is lower than your opponent's, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the difference. Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: Shuffle this card into the Deck. 
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 1
I probably won't be rating many of these guys this low but this guy earned it because you're risking everything on a single attack with low LP and a monster with 0 ATK that can easily lose its effects or have the attack negated.   
 
                                                    BLRR-EN021
Effect Monster
Michion, the Timelord
FIRE | Fairy | Level 10 | ATK 0 | DEF 0
Cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck. If you control no monsters, you can Normal Summon this card without Tributing. Cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. You take no battle damage from attacks involving this card. At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card battled: Halve your opponent's LP. Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: Shuffle this card into the Deck.
(Ultra Rare)  

                                                    Rating: 2
These guys are pretty dependent on their effects because without them, there's nothing to fear. Even so, their effects don't protect them from harm so you'll have to use the likes of Mound of the Bound Creator.   
 
                                                    BLRR-EN020
Spell Card
Slash Draw
Normal Spell
Discard 1 card; send cards from the top of your Deck to the GY, equal to the number of cards your opponent controls, then draw 1 card and show it. Then, if it was "Slash Draw", send it to the GY, and if you do, destroy as many cards on the field as possible, then inflict 2000 damage to your opponent for each card destroyed and sent to the GY by this effect. If the card you drew was not "Slash Draw", shuffle cards from your GY into your Deck, equal to the number of cards sent from your Deck to the GY by this effect. You can only activate 1 "Slash Draw" per turn.
(Ultra Rare)  

                                                    Rating: 2
They've doubled the damage the card deals from the anime so that the card can still win in a single turn, though you won't be having Lucien Grimley's luck unless you can improve the odds with card effects but that's a pretty mediocre strategy. Still, even if you don't get it, you really only lose the card you discarded.   
 
                                                    BLRR-EN017
Trap Card
Born from Draconis
Normal Trap
Banish all LIGHT Machine monsters from your GY and face-up from your field; Special Summon 1 Level 6 or higher LIGHT Machine monster from your hand, ignoring its Summoning conditions, and if you do, its ATK/DEF become equal to the number of monsters banished to activate this card x 500, also it is unaffected by card effects, except its own and this card's. You cannot Special Summon other monsters the turn you activate this card.
(Ultra Rare)  

                                                    Rating: 1
Wasted resources just for a monster that can still be taken out in battle unless you remove at least 6 monsters in your Graveyard and/or in play on your field. However, that's pretty costly and if you lose that monster you'll have few options to make a comeback.   
 
                                                    BLRR-EN016
Spell Card
Cyber Emergency
Normal Spell
Add 1 LIGHT Machine monster that cannot be Normal Summoned/Set, or 1 "Cyber Dragon" monster, from your Deck to your hand. If the activation of this card in its owner's possession was negated by your opponent's card effect and sent to your GY: You can discard 1 card; add this card to your hand. You can only activate 1 "Cyber Emergency" per turn.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
You can fetch regular Cyber Dragon or just about any member of its family and more but the bonus effect depends entirely on the card being negated, which'll end up costing you a card from your hand.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN015
Spell Card
Living Fossil
Equip Spell
Activate this card by targeting 1 Level 4 or lower monster in your GY; Special Summon it and equip it with this card, but banish it when it leaves the field (even if this card has left the field). When this card leaves the field, banish the equipped monster. The equipped monster loses 1000 ATK/DEF, also its effects are negated. You can only activate 1 "Living Fossil" per turn.
(Secret Rare)

                                                    Rating: 1
This fossil should stay dead because it's utterly useless given the better alternatives already released that are legal.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN014
Spell Card
Litmus Doom Ritual
Ritual Spell
This card is used to Ritual Summon "Litmus Doom Swordsman". You must also Tribute monsters from your hand or field, whose total Levels equal 8 or more. If this card is in the GY: You can target 1 "Litmus Doom Swordsman" in your GY; shuffle both it and this card from the GY into the Deck, then draw 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Litmus Doom Ritual" once per turn.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It's more than the typical Ritual Spell as there's a bonus effect for after it's been used and you've lost Litmus Doom Swordsman. Still, you won't get much more than that.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN013
Ritual Monster
Litmus Doom Swordsman
DARK | Warrior-Type Ritual | Level 8 | ATK 0 | DEF 0
You can Ritual Summon this card with "Litmus Doom Ritual". It is unaffected by Trap effects and cannot be destroyed by battle. Gains 3000 ATK/DEF while a Trap is on the field. If this Ritual Summoned card in its owner's control is destroyed by your opponent's card: You can target 1 Trap in either GY; Set it to your Spell & Trap Zone.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 2
It can be helpful for you if either player has a Trap Card and can't be affected by them so you could have a card that would normally affect it like Gravity Bind and just reduce the odds of your opponent being able to attack. Of course, without its precious effects, it's going to be easily beaten but can thankfully be revived via Limit Reverse and be unbound by its effects.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN012
Spell Card
Iron Cage
Continuous Spell
When this card is activated: Send 1 monster you control to the GY, or if "Golden Castle of Stromberg" is in a Field Zone, you can send 1 monster your opponent controls to the GY, instead. Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: You can target the monster that was sent to the GY by this card's effect; destroy this card, and if you do, Special Summon that monster to your field. You can only activate 1 "Iron Cage" per turn.
(Ultra Rare)

                                                    Rating: 1
The best part of the effect requires a mediocre Field Spell to be in play but we have Monster Reborn legal again (and have better options even if it wasn't legal) so there's pretty much no point to this.
 
                                                    BLRR-EN011
Spell Card
Glass Slippers

Honestly, I feel it was a poor decision to center the other Fairy Tale cards around this one as this one has taken a beating from its anime version, at least from after Zigfried von Schroeder modified it. There may be others that support this card too but I doubt they'll be much better. The only good effect is the last one and it's offset by the big maintenance cost that you can't really avoid.

You don't have to control Golden Castle but given how poor Golden Castle of Stromberg is, its not likely to see much play as they crippled to where it's barely usable. The other effect isn't that good either, even if it's used on itself.

You can make use of the Pendulum Scale but the effects and stats are pretty poor.

Since it's Level 12, you're probably going to need multiple non-Tuners anyway but once this guy is out, its 4800 DEF and multiple decent effects are sure to wreak havoc on your opponent. Still, it needs Superheavy Samurai Synchro Materials and that does bring its rating down a bit as does its low ATK.

If you have no Spells/Traps in your GY: You can target 1 "Superheavy Samurai" Synchro Monster you control; reduce its Level by 1, and if you do, Special Summon this card from your GY, also you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except "Superheavy Samurai" monsters.

Thankfully, you're not restrained to Synchro Summoning by its effect as that's never really a good thing. The other effect is pretty poor, especially given your Graveyard must be free of Spell/Trap Cards and restrains you to Special Summoning only Superheavy Samurais that turn.

It's not all that much help when you factor in the conditions its effect has and its ATK and DEF won't be helping you either.

Pendulum Monster
D/D/D Super Doom King Dark Armageddon
DARK | Fiend, Xyz and Pendulum | Rank 8 | ATK 3500 | DEF 3000 | Scale 1

2 Level 8 "D/D/D" monsters

Since Pendulum Summoning was expanded to allow Xyz Monsters to be Pendulum Summoned should their Ranks be in between Pendulum Scales, it's a shame this guy can never join in. While it can automatically gain an additional Xyz Material upon its Xyz Summon, making use of the effect requires multiuple Pendulum Monsters to be out, and even then, they never really go away once destroyed.

It's actually less restrained than you might think as the Monster Text makes no mention of D/D monsters except with its Synchro Materials, which also drop its rating.

Getting it on the field is going to be tricky but at least its effects somewhat make up for it. We do also have Pendulum Switch to make it easier to get the most of this card though.

While it doesn't have Archetype Bias, it's bad enough that I feel it's too much to make this card worthwhile. Plus, with such low ATK, DEF and mediocre effects, you'll be seeing the end of this rainbow very soon.

Pendulum Monster
Performapal Odd-Eyes Synchron
DARK | Spellcaster, Pendulum and Tuner | Level 2 | ATK 200 | DEF 600 | Scale 6

If this card, Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, is used as Synchro Material, banish it. When this card is Normal Summoned: You can target 1 Level 3 or lower "Performapal" or "Odd-Eyes" monster in your GY; Special Summon it, but it has its effects negated. Once per turn: You can target 1 card in your Pendulum Zone; Special Summon it, but it has its effects negated (if any), and if you do, immediately after this effect resolves, Synchro Summon 1 Synchro Monster using only that monster and this card.

It makes sure you have a Tuner monster for Synchro Summons but only if that monster is a Performapal or Odd-Eyes monster and being Level 1 might not be what you want. It also punishes you if you Special Summon it from the Extra Deck for Synchro Material but neither of the monster's last effects are all that good, nor are its stats.

DARK | Spellcaster-Type Pendulum | Level 8 | ATK 2000 | DEF 2600 | Scale 4

This guy's Pendulum Effect is your best bet as there are plenty of Dragon-Type Fusions to bring out and it doesn't require you to use a Fusion Summoning Spell Card, nor is restrained to just the hand or just the field. Its stats and other effect aren't enough to raise its rating any highter though.

If this card attacks, your opponent cannot activate any Spell/Trap Cards until the end of the Damage Step. If an "Odd-Eyes" card(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can destroy 1 "Odd-Eyes" card in your hand, Monster Zone, or Pendulum Zone instead.

I wouldn't recommend using the first effect to bring this guy out because it's pretty situational. The ATK and 2nd effect are what make this card a good candidate, though you probably won't be able to make use of the 3rd effect without other Odd-Eyes monsters.
