PRIO-EN039
Starduston
DARK / Fiend / Level 1 / ATK ? / DEF ?
Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be Special Summoned (from your hand) by sending any number of "Duston" monsters you control to the Graveyard, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. This card's ATK and DEF each become equal to the number of monsters sent for its Summon x 1000. Your opponent cannot Flip or Special Summon any monsters, or activate any Set Spell/Trap Cards on the field. If you control more monsters than your opponent does, destroy this card.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: It has the potential to be a powerhouse but you cannot have more monsters than your opponent or you lose the monster you worked to bring out and the slight advantages it brought with it.
PRIO-EN038
Condemned Maiden
LIGHT / Fairy / Level 4 / ATK 100 / DEF 2000
During your opponent's turn, you can activate 1 Quick-Play Spell Card from your hand. You can only use this effect of "Condemned Maiden" once per Duel.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: The effect is totally useless as you can do that already anytime so all it has left is 2000 DEF.
PRIO-EN037
Nopenguin
WATER / Aqua / Level 3 / ATK 1600 / DEF 100
During either player's turn, when an effect of a "Penguin" monster is activated: Special Summon this card from your Graveyard. You can only use this effect of "Nopenguin" once per turn. If a card would be returned from the field to the hand by the effect of a "Penguin" card, banish it instead.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Right now, only Penguin Soldier is any good so this guy is currently not all that playable, which is too bad because its effect revolves solely around Penguin monsters.
PRIO-EN036
Beautunaful Princess
WATER / Fish / Level 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can banish this card; Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Fish-Type monster from your Deck, except "Beautunaful Princess". You can only use this effect of "Beautunaful Princess" once per turn.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: You could trade it for Unshaven Angler, which can be used to bring out Mega Mobius but there isn't much else and this card doesn't have much else outside its effect either.
PRIO-EN035
Thestalos the Mega Monarch
FIRE / Pyro / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 1000
You can Tribute Summon this card by Tributing 1 Tribute Summoned monster. When this card is Tribute Summoned: Look at your opponent's hand and discard 1 card from their hand, then, if it was a Monster Card, inflict damage to your opponent equal to its original Level x 200. If this card was Tributed Summoned by Tributing a FIRE monster, add this additional effect.
● Also, inflict 1000 damage to your opponent after that.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: Much like Mega Mobius, you can Tribute Summon it fairly easily and in an all-FIRE Deck, this guy hurts your opponent even more!
PRIO-EN034
Majesty's Fiend
LIGHT / Fiend / Level 6 / ATK 2400 / DEF 1000
Cannot be Special Summoned. Monster effects cannot be activated.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: It's strong enough for its Level to be considered a great card except that it cannot be Special Summoned and includes both players' Effect Monsters in its effect.
PRIO-EN033
Dawn Knight
LIGHT / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1200
If this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard: You can send 1 LIGHT monster from your Deck to the Graveyard. If this card is sent from your Deck to the Graveyard: Target 1 LIGHT monster in your Graveyard; place that target on the top of your Deck. You can only use 1 "Dawn Knight" effect per turn, and only once that turn.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: You can send or retrieve any LIGHT monster (depending on which effect is activated) but this guy has to be sent from the field to the Graveyard and you don't get to add the LIGHT monster to your hand with the first effect and can't use more than 1 Dawn Knight effect per turn.
PRIO-EN032
Ancient Gear Box
EARTH / Machine / Level 4 / ATK 500 / DEF 2000
If this card is added from the Deck or Graveyard to your hand, except by drawing it: You can add 1 EARTH Machine-Type monster with 500 ATK and/or DEF from your Deck to your hand, except "Ancient Gear Box". You can only use this effect of "Ancient Gear Box" once per turn.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: It can't add another copy of itself to your hand, leaving you with few options but at least it also has 2000 DEF.
PRIO-EN031
Lucent, Netherlord of Dark World
DARK / Fiend / Level 6 / ATK 2400 / DEF 0
If this card is discarded to the Graveyard by a card effect: Special Summon this card from the Graveyard, then, if it was discarded from your hand to your Graveyard by an opponent's card effect, you can Special Summon 1 Fiend-Type monster from your Deck to either side of the field.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: It may have 0 DEF but it works as a standalone Beatstick or with its effect in a Dark World or Fiend Deck.
PRIO-EN030
Gladiator Beast Augustus
DARK / Winged Beast / Level 8 / ATK 2600 / DEF 1000
When this card is Special Summoned by the effect of a "Gladiator Beast" monster: You can Special Summon 1 "Gladiator Beast" monster from your hand in face-up Defense Position. Shuffle it into the Deck during the End Phase. At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card attacked or was attacked: You can shuffle it into the Deck; Special Summon 1 "Gladiator Beast" monster from your Deck, except "Gladiator Beast Augustus".
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: It must be brought out by one of its friends' effects to even do much and as a Level 8 monster, its stats don't really cut it with me.
PRIO-EN029
Pilica, Descendent of Gusto
WIND / Psychic / Level 3 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1500
When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can target 1 WIND Tuner monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target in face-up Defense Position. Its effects are negated. If you activated this effect, you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except WIND monsters. You can only use this effect of "Pilica, Descendant of Gusto" once per turn.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: As a descendent, it should learn all about being a good Monster Card but it seems it hasn't as it limits itself to a WIND Tuner and prevents you from playing non-WIND monsters the turn you use its effect!
PRIO-EN028
Madolche Anjelly
EARTH / Fairy / Level 4 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1000
When this card in your possession is destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Shuffle this card into the Deck. You can Tribute this card; Special Summon 1 "Madolche" monster from your Deck, but shuffle it into the Deck during the End Phase of your next turn. You can only use this effect of "Madolche Anjelly" once per turn. That Special Summoned monster cannot be destroyed by battle.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: A new friend for Madolce lovers but this one doesn't bring a lot to the table as the friend it trades itself for doesn't stick around for long, even if it can't be destroyed in battle.
PRIO-EN027
Hazy Flame Hydra
FIRE / Dinosaur / Level 6 / ATK 2300 / DEF 200
Your opponent cannot target this card with card effects. You cannot Special Summon monsters, except FIRE monsters. An Xyz Monster that was Summoned using this card as Xyz Material gains this effect.
● When it is Xyz Summoned: You can target 1 "Hazy Flame" monster in your Graveyard; attach that target to this card as an Xyz Material.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Its ATK and DEF are bad enough but when you add in the fact that you can only Special Summon FIRE monsters and your new Xyz Monster only gets an additional Hazy Flame Xyz Material the turn it's Xyz Summoned, that only makes it worse.
PRIO-EN026
Mecha Phantom Beast O-Lion
WIND / Machine-Type Tuner / Level 2 / ATK 600 / DEF 1000
You can banish this card from your Graveyard; immediately after this effect resolves, Normal Summon 1 "Mecha Phantom Beast" monster from your hand. While you control a Token, this card cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. If this card is sent to the Graveyard: You can Special Summon 1 "Mecha Phantom Beast Token" (Machine-Type/WIND/Level 3/ATK 0/DEF 0). You can only use this effect of "Mecha Phantom Beast O-Lion" once per turn.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: A Tuner that gives you a token to help out its friends but that's if sent to the Graveyard and until then, its stats will not keep it on the field for long.
PRIO-EN025
Traptrix Dionaea
EARTH / Plant / Level 4 / ATK 1700 / DEF 1100
This card is unaffected by the effects of "Hole" Normal Trap Cards. When this card is Normal Summoned: You can target 1 "Traptrix" monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target in face-up Defense Position. When this card is Special Summoned: You can target 1 "Hole" Normal Trap Card in your Graveyard; Set that target, but banish it during the End Phase of your next turn if it is still on the field. You can only use this effect of "Traptrix Dionaea" once per turn.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: With Bottomless Trap Hole at 1 in the US, and regular Trap Hole unplayable, there's little for this guy to pick from and if it's not used (and it probably won't be), you lose it unless you have a way to get it back.
PRIO-EN024
Bujin Hirume
LIGHT / Beast-Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1000
Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must first be Special Summoned (from your hand) by banishing 1 "Bujin" monster from your Graveyard, except "Bujin Hirume". If this card, which was Summoned this way, is destroyed by your opponent's card (by battle or by card effect), and sent from your side of the field to your Graveyard, and both players have a hand: You can discard 1 card, then your opponent discards 1 card. You can only control 1 "Bujin Hirume".
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Alexandrite Dragon, a LIGHT monster with the same Level and ATK, already exists and doesn't have any of this card's horrible effects.
PRIO-EN023
Ghostrick Warwolf
DARK / Zombie / Level 3 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1500
Cannot be Normal Summoned, unless you control a "Ghostrick" monster. Once per turn: You can change this card to face-down Defense Position. When this card is flipped face-up: Inflict 100 damage to your opponent for each Set card on the field. You can only use this effect of "Ghostrick Warwolf" once per turn.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: 100 damage per Set card or for any reason is terrible because you need a good amount of the cards it needs to deal a decent amount of damage and this guy won't likely deal more than 500 damage, which is bad because higher amounts can be dealt much more easily.
PRIO-EN022
Ghostrick Doll
DARK / Spellcaster / Level 2 / ATK 300 / DEF 1200
Cannot be Normal Summoned, unless you control a "Ghostrick" monster. Once per turn: You can change this card to face-down Defense Position. When this card is flipped face-up: During the End Phase, change as many face-up monsters on the field as possible to face-down Defense Position, then you can Special Summon 1 "Ghostrick" monster from your Deck in face-down Defense Position, whose Level is less than or equal to the number of monsters flipped face-down by this effect.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: It can disrupt your opponent's strategy but if you're not careful, yours will be too.
PRIO-EN021
Sylvan Sagequoia
WIND / Plant / Level 7 / ATK 2600 / DEF 2100
When a "Sylvan" monster is sent to the Graveyard (except during the Damage Step): You can Special Summon this card from your hand. Once per turn: You can excavate the top card of your Deck, and if it is a Plant-Type monster, send it to the Graveyard. Otherwise, place it on the bottom of your Deck. If this card is excavated from the Deck and sent to the Graveyard by a card effect: You can target 1 "Sylvan" Spell/Trap Card in your Graveyard; add that target to your hand.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: It's one of the better Sylvan monsters as it's very easy to send a Sylvan monster to the Graveyard, especially when it doesn't matter how it gets there but it's not very strong for a Level 7 monster and can only excavate the top card of your Deck, making it harder to succeed with the effect.
PRIO-EN020
Sylvan Lotuswain
WATER / Plant / Level 5 / ATK 2300 / DEF 1100
Once per turn: You can excavate a number of cards from the top of your Deck, equal to the number of cards your opponent controls, send any excavated Plant-Type monsters to the Graveyard, also place the other cards on the bottom of your Deck in any order. If this card is excavated from the Deck and sent to the Graveyard by a card effect: You can target up to 5 "Sylvan" cards in your Graveyard, except "Sylvan Lotuswain"; place those targets on the bottom of your Deck in any order.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Like most of the Sylvans thus far, it's not very strong for its Level but if your opponent has at least a few cards out, you'll have a few chances to get some Plant-Type monsters into the Grave, including another copy of itself to activate its other effect, which cannot retrieve itself, not that that's any good since they go to the bottom of the Deck.
