Being in Attack Mode makes it actually somewhat useful in addition to its Pendulum Scale.

DEF: 1500
Pendulum
Scale:
FLIP: Target 1 monster your opponent controls; destroy it.

Pendulum

Not as searchable as Marauding Captain, but it has higher DEF. The boost is a non-factor though.

DEF: 1300
Pendulum
Scale:

(Common)

Not many monsters this strong can attack directly by their own effect, but the result is quite limited.
Space-Time Showdown (YS14-EN011)

LIGHT Dragon / Effect Level 6 ATK: 2300
DEF: 1600
Pendulum
Scale:
When this card is Pendulum Summoned: You can target 1 card on the field; return it to the hand. You can only use this effect of "Aether, the Empowering Dragon" once per turn.

Pendulum Summoning requires at least 3 cards, and this offers nothing useful when you get them in place.
Space-Time Showdown (YS14-EN010)
Timegazer Magician
DARK Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect Level 3 ATK: 1200
DEF: 600
Pendulum
Scale: 8

(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Here's our 2nd Pendulum overall, but it's not really an improvement from Stargazer.
Space-Time Showdown (YS14-EN009)
Stargazer Magician
DARK Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect Level 5 ATK: 1200
DEF: 2400
Pendulum
Scale: 1

(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
A good start could've been achieved, but its Pendulum Scale of 1 is mitigated by its Pendulum Text's last line.
V for Victory (YS13-EN031)
Puzzle Reborn
TRAP Normal Trap Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
If exactly 1 monster you control (and no other cards) is destroyed by a card effect: Target that monster; Special Summon that target.

We end the reviews on a relatively low note, but it's not terrible.
V for Victory (YS13-EN021)
Swords of Burning Light
SPELL Continuous Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
While you control no monsters, monsters your opponent controls cannot declare attacks. If you control a monster, or if your opponent has 5 or more cards in their hand, destroy this card.
(Common)
Rating: 1 out of 5
They'll likely only burn for a turn before they're put out. The original is vastly better.
V for Victory (YS13-EN008)
Caligo Claw Crow
DARK Winged Beast / Effect Level 2 ATK: 900
DEF: 600
Pendulum
Scale:
If you control a DARK monster, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). You can only Special Summon "Caligo Claw Crow" once per turn this way.

Magical Undertaker

DEF: 400
Pendulum
Scale:
FLIP: You can target 1 Level 4 or lower Spellcaster-Type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target.

Gagaga Child
DARK Spellcaster / Effect Level 2 ATK: 800
DEF: 1200
Pendulum
Scale:
If you control a "Gagaga" monster other than "Gagaga Child", you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). When you do: You can target 1 "Gagaga" monster you control with a different Level than this card; this card's Level becomes the Level of that monster. You cannot conduct your Battle Phase the turn you activate this effect.
(Common)
Rating: 1 out of 5
Throws a tantrum just after it hits the field, rendering just about anything else you do that turn moot.
Xyz Symphony (YS12-EN043)
Maestroke the Symphony Djinn
DARK Fiend / Xyz / Effect Rank 4 ATK: 1800
DEF: 2300
Pendulum
Scale:
2 Level 4 monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target 1 face-up Attack Position monster your opponent controls; change it to face-down Defense Position. If a face-up "Djinn" Xyz Monster you control would be destroyed, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from that monster instead.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
The DEF will help a bit, but it's little more than Book of Moon.
Xyz Symphony (YS12-EN042)
Melomelody the Brass Djinn
LIGHT Fiend / Xyz / Effect Rank 3 ATK: 1400
DEF: 1600
Pendulum
Scale:

Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target 1 face-up "Djinn" Xyz Monster you control; this turn, that monster can attack twice during each Battle Phase.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
Attacking twice is only useful when you have a strong monster or the opponent has none.
Xyz Symphony (YS12-EN041)
Temtempo the Precussion Djinn
EARTH Fiend / Xyz / Effect Rank 3 ATK: 1700
DEF: 1000
Pendulum
Scale:
2 Level 3 monsters
Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target 1 Xyz Monster your opponent controls; detach 1 Xyz Material from that monster, and all face-up "Djinn" Xyz Monsters you currently control gain 500 ATK.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
2 Xyz Materials just for a 500 ATK boost is pathetic, and that's on top of its own weak stats.
Xyz Symphony (YS12-EN040)
Muzurhythm the String Djinn
WIND Fiend / Xyz / Effect Rank 3 ATK: 1500
DEF: 1000
Pendulum
Scale:
2 Level 3 monsters

(Super Rare)

Fairly strong for its Rank, but it costs a material to deal the damage.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN042)
Gachi Gachi Gantetsu
EARTH Rock / Xyz / Effect Rank 2 ATK: 500
DEF: 1800
Pendulum

(Super Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
It won't last long, and the boost is quite small.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN032)
Xyz Effect
TRAP Normal Trap Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
When you Xyz Summon a monster: You can target 1 card on the field; destroy it.

Cause and effect as a Yu-Gi-Oh card, but we're not talking about anything major here.

Xyz Energy
SPELL Normal Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Detach 1 Xyz Material you control to target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; destroy that target.

Just go with Tribute to the Doomed for pretty much the same result.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN022)
Harmonic Waves
SPELL Normal Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Target 1 face-up monster on the field; it becomes Level 4 until the End Phase.

Rank 4s gets a bit easier, but this is limited entirely to making Level 4s.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN021)
Blustering Winds
SPELL Normal Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Target 1 face-up monster you control; it gains 1000 ATK and DEF until your next Standby Phase.
(Common)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Long enough to make just about any monster a threat, but Axe of Despair can do that indefinitely.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN011)
Shine Knight
LIGHT Warrior / Effect Level 3 ATK: 400
DEF: 1900
Pendulum
Scale:
This card is Level 4 while in face-up Defense Position.
(Common)

High DEF and a bit more versatile with its Level.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN010)
Tenshin
LIGHT Fairy / Effect Level 2 ATK: 800
DEF: 100
Pendulum
Scale:
This card gains 400 ATK for each face-up Level 2 monster you control.
(Common)
Rating: 1 out of 5
That's only 1200 ATK for itself and I can bet you won't have more than two out at a time.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN009)
Key Man the Key Warrior
EARTH Warrior / Effect Level 2 ATK: 1000
DEF: 500
Pendulum
Scale:
Once per turn, during your Main Phase: You can make this card Level 3 until the End Phase.
(Common)

Only goes up (or down after an effect is applied) a single Level and is very weak.

DEF: 1000
Pendulum
Scale:
When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard: You can target 2 Level 2 monsters in your Graveyard; Special Summon them, but their effects are negated.

Feedback Warrior
EARTH Warrior / Effect Level 3 ATK: 800
DEF: 700
Pendulum
Scale:
When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can target 1 face-up monster you control; it becomes Level 3.
(Common)
Rating: 2 out of 5
You could just use an existing Level 3 like Marauding Captain, but it may be useful on non-Level 3 monsters.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN006)
Ganbara Knight
LIGHT Warrior / Effect Level 4 ATK: 0
DEF: 1800
Pendulum
Scale:
When this face-up Attack Position card is targeted for an attack: You can change it to Defense Position.
(Common)
Rating: 2 out of 5
0 ATK is going to be too tempting a property for the opponent to exploit, but it has a built-in patch for that.
Dawn of the Xyz (YS11-EN005)
Zubaba Knight
LIGHT Warrior / Effect Level 3 ATK: 1600
DEF: 900
Pendulum
Scale:

It could destroy up to 5 cards, but only by using Level 1s at best.
Duelist Toolbox (5DS3-EN029)
Wild Tornado
TRAP Normal Trap Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Select 1 face-up card in the Spell & Trap Card Zones and destroy it. The controller of the destroyed card can then Set 1 Spell or Trap Card from their hand. If this Set card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, select and destroy 1 face-up card on the field.

Duelist Toolbox (5DS3-EN019)
Half Shut

DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Select 1 face-up monster on the field. That monster cannot be destroyed by battle this turn, and its ATK is halved until the End Phase of this turn.
(Common)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Rarely it helps to have a monster survive a battle, but this also cuts their ATK in half.
Duelist Toolbox (5DS3-EN005)
Synchron Explorer
