| TAEV-EN089* | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Blazewing Butterfly FIRE / Insect-Type Gemini / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1500 This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it be treated as an Effect Monster with this effect: ● You can Tribute this card to Special Summon 1 Gemini monster from your Graveyard, except "Blazewing Butterfly". A Gemini monster Special Summoned by this effect is treated as an Effect Monster, and gains its effect. SUPER RARE |
| Rating: | 3 |
| Comments: | While his stats are low, you can tribute it to bring back a stronger Gemini monster and as a bonus, the summoned Gemini monster gets its effect! Not to shabby overall! |
| TAEV-EN088 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Il Blud DARK / Zombie-Type Gemini / Level 6 / ATK 2100 / DEF 800 This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it be treated as an Effect Monster with this effect: ● Once per turn, you can Special Summon 1 Zombie-Type monster from your hand or from either player's Graveyard. When this card is removed from the field, destroy all Zombie-Type monsters Special Summoned by this effect. SECRET RARE |
| Rating: | 3 |
| Comments: | The Doom Shaman for Zombies, making this guy decent in Zombie decks but since he lacks 300 ATK than his counter part, I cannot give him anything higher than 3/5. |
| TAEV-EN087 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Phantom Dragonray Bronto WATER / Fish-Type Gemini / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1000 This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it be treated as an Effect Monster with this effect: ● The original ATK of this card becomes 2300. If this card attacks, it is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Battle Phase. This card's battle position cannot be changed until the end of your next turn, except with a card effect. RARE |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | If I had to pick between Normal Summoning Goblin Attack Force or re-summoning this guy, I'd choose GAF simply because this guy has a mere 1500 ATK and won't last long enough to get the 2300 ATK. |
| TAEV-EN086 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Fossil Tusker EARTH / Rock / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 0 When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard, inflict 400 damage to your opponent. RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | 1800 ATK is decent for a Rock-Type monster but 0 DEF only hurts it and minimal burn damage hurts it even more so keep him in a Rock, EARTH or Beat down deck only. |
| TAEV-EN085 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Mormolith EARTH / Rock / Level 4 / ATK 1000 / DEF 900 You can Tribute 1 EARTH monster to destroy all face-up monsters with DEF equal to or less than the ATK of the Tributed card. SECRET RARE |
| Rating: | 3 |
| Comments: | Tribute it without any boost and clobber all the Monarchs at once or power it up and destroy the big ones like Horus and Jinzo! |
| TAEV-EN084 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Abyssal Kingshark WATER / Fish / Level 4 / ATK 1700 / DEF 600 Once per turn, if this card would be destroyed by an effect that does not target it, it is not destroyed. SECRET RARE |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | 1700 ATK doesn't make the cut anymore and his effect doesn't help either as he can still be targeted by Trap Hole and can easily be run over by Level 3 1750 ATK Jerry Beans Man! A horrible card to use. |
| TAEV-EN083 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Cranium Fish WATER / Fish / Level 6 / ATK 2400 / DEF 1000 You can Special Summon this card by Tributing 1 "Ocean's Keeper". You can discard 1 WATER monster to the Graveyard to destroy 1 face-down card. SECRET RARE |
| Rating: | 4 |
| Comments: | At 2400 ATK, he rivals Amphibian Beast but his effect isn't really worth activating, though. |
| TAEV-EN082 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Thousand-Eyes Jellyfish WATER / Fish / Level 5 / ATK 300 / DEF 2100 This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by Tributing 1 "Ocean's Keeper". Your opponent must play with their hand revealed. RARE |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | 2100 DEF for a Level 5 monster is bad to start but having to Special Summon it by another monster not even worth playing is truly horrendous! Don't ever run him, as there are better fish in the sea to use. |
| TAEV-EN081 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Ocean's Keeper WATER / Fish / Level 3 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1200 During battle between this attacking card and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent. When this card is destroyed by battle, add 1 "Thousand-Eyes Jellyfish" or 1 "Cranium Fish" from your Deck to your hand. RARE |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | He won't be guarding the ocean that long and while he possesses the Trample ability, so do the other monsters that are stronger than he is! |
| TAEV-EN080 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Counter Counter Normal Trap Negate the activation of a Counter Trap Card, and destroy it. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | Thanks UDE for creating another useless card! However, this one's the worst of all since you're negating a Counter Trap and destroying it! Use Royal Decree instead. |
| TAEV-EN079 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | The Gift of Greed Normal Trap Your opponent draws 2 cards. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | Even in Deck Destruction decks, this card is pretty bad since your opponent is only adding to their hand. The only use for this is with Greed or Card Destruction. If you aren't running those cards, don't run this. |
| TAEV-EN078 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Gift Card Normal Trap Your opponent gains 3000 Life Points. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | Don't use this card unless you're running Bad Reaction to Simochi. |
| TAEV-EN077 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Trap Reclamation Normal Trap Discard 1 card and chain this card to a Trap Card you activated. Whenever that Trap Card is sent to the Graveyard, return it to its owner's hand. RARE |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | Use Mask of Darkness instead as you don't have to discard anything to retrieve the Trap Card. |
| TAEV-EN076 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Spell Reclamation Normal Trap Discard 1 card and chain this card to a Spell Card you activated. Whenever that Spell Card is sent to the Graveyard, return it to its owner's hand. RARE |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | The only use for this is to retrieve a negated Spell Card you activated so you can re-use it but with Magician of Faith coming off the banned list, she'll be a much better card to use than this so use her instead. |
| TAEV-EN075 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Strike Slash Normal Trap Activate only when a monster you control declares an attack. Until the end of this turn, that monster gains 700 ATK, and during battle between that attacking monster and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of that card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | It gives the designated monster 700 ATK and Trample but, there are already 2 cards that remain on the field, do the job better, and are both Spell Cards so if not using this, use them. |
| TAEV-EN074 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Shield Spear Normal Trap Target monster gains 400 ATK and DEF until the end of this turn. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | Use Rush Recklessly instead. |
| TAEV-EN073 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Destructive Draw Continuous Trap If either player has no cards in their hand at the start of their Draw Phase, they can draw 1 more card in addition to their normal draw. This card's controller loses 700 Life Points during their End Phase. (If less than 700, they become 0 instead.) When this face-up card is removed from the field, inflict 3000 damage to the player who controlled it. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | A very bad card indeed. First, you take 700 damage each turn and if you have less than 700 Life Points, you lose the duel and worse yet, if the card leaves the field, you take 3000 damage! |
| TAEV-EN072 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Common Charity Normal Trap Draw 2 cards, then remove from play 1 Normal Monster Card from your hand. If you don't have any Normal Monster Cards in your hand to remove, send all cards in your hand to the Graveyard. RARE |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | This card is best in Normal Monster or Dark World decks so keep it there. |
| TAEV-EN071 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Venom Burn Normal Trap Select 1 monster with a Venom Counter(s). Remove all Venom Counters from that card, and inflict 700 damage to your opponent for each Venom Counter removed. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Same as TAEV-EN070's comments. |
| TAEV-EN070 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Ambush Fangs Normal Trap Activate only when a face-up "Venom" monster you control is declared as an attack target. Negate the attack and end the Battle Phase. Then place 1 Venom Counter on the monster that attacked. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | A good card for Reptile decks but not so much elsewhere. |
| TAEV-EN069 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Rise of the Snake Deity Normal Trap Activate only when a face-up "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes" you control is destroyed. Special Summon 1 "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes" from your hand or Deck. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Unless you're running both Vennominion and Vennominaga, don't use this card. |
| TAEV-EN068 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Snake Deity's Command Counter Trap Activate by showing your opponent 1 "Venom" monster in your hand. Negate the activation and effect of an opponent's Spell Card, and destroy it. RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | In Reptile decks, this card's okay but elsewhere, stick to Magic Jammer instead. |
| TAEV-EN067 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Damage = Reptile Continuous Trap Once per turn, when you take Battle Damage from a battle involving a Reptile-Type monster, you can Special Summon 1 Reptile-Type monster from your Deck with ATK less than or equal to the Battle Damage you took. RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | In order to bring out a strong Reptile-Type monster, you'd have to take some serious damage, which could cost you the duel in the end. |
| TAEV-EN066 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Snake Whistle Normal Trap Activate only when a Reptile-Type monster you control is destroyed. Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Reptile-Type monster from your Deck. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | While it can be useful when you're out of monsters or when you need an extra defense for your opponent's next attack, your opponent can chain Torrential Tribute, causing you to lose that monster and perhaps the duel. |
| TAEV-EN065 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Cocoon Veil Normal Trap Activate by Tributing 1 face-up "Chrysalis" monster. This turn, any damage to a player caused by an effect becomes 0. Special Summon 1 "Neo-Spacian" monster written on the "Chrysalis" monster you Tributed, from your hand, Deck or from either player's Graveyard. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | Use Barrel Behind the Door instead since you can make your opponent take the damage instead and keep this card in Jaden's Neo Space deck. |
| TAEV-EN064 | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Hero Counterattack Normal Trap Activate only when an "Elemental Hero" monster you control is destroyed by battle. Your opponent selects 1 random card from your hand. If that card is an "Elemental Hero" monster, destroy 1 monster your opponent controls, then Special Summon the selected card. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Make sure you have plenty of monsters in your hand before you activate this or you will be out one card and probably taking serious damage to your Life Points. |
| TAEV-EN063* | |
| Card Type: | Trap Card |
| Card Info | Mirror Gate Normal Trap Activate only when your opponent's monster declares an attack targeting a face-up "Elemental Hero" monster you control. Switch control of the opponent's attacking monster with the targeted monster you control, then calculate damage. Control of those monsters switches back during the End Phase of this turn. SUPER RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Not the best card in this set being a Super Rare but at least it didn't keep its Ultra Rare status like in TAEV-JP. Still, it's still not anymore playable since it's basically Creature Swap in Trap Card form that applies to Elemental Heroes. |
| TAEV-EN062 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Broken Bamboo Sword Equip Spell The equipped monster gains 0 ATK. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | *Laughs hysterically* This is nowhere NEAR broken and it's only use is for taking out Spirit Reaper or with one of two other useless cards (Eternal Rest and Really Eternal Rest) Don't EVER use this. |
| TAEV-EN061 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Amulet of Ambition Equip Spell Equip only to a Normal Monster. If it battles a monster with a higher Level, the equipped monster gains 500 ATK x the difference in Levels (during that battle only). When this card is sent to the Graveyard, you can return it to the top of your Deck. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Gaining 500 x the difference in the levels of the two monsters isn't too bad considering if it's a weak monster, it'll get a major boost but it only lasts for one attack, which really hurts it. |
| TAEV-EN060 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Symbols of Duty Equip Spell Send 1 Normal Monster you control to the Graveyard. Select and Special Summon 1 monster from either Graveyard and equip it with this card. When this card is removed from the field, destroy the equipped monster. RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | It can be useful if you send a weak Normal Monster to your Graveyard to take a stronger monster from your opponent but that's about it. |
| TAEV-EN059 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Phalanx Pike Equip Spell The equipped monster gains 900 ATK for each card in either Graveyard that has the same name it does. RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Not much use for this card. The equipped monster may gain 900 ATK per monster but the monsters must be in the Graveyard. Might be decent in a Normal Monster deck though. |
| TAEV-EN058 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Creature Seizure Normal Spell Each player gives their opponent control of 1 of their monsters (controller's choice). You must choose a face-up Normal Monster. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | A waste of deck space. Use Creature Swap instead since you can choose any monster you control. |
| TAEV-EN057 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Summoner's Art Normal Spell Add 1 Level 5 or higher Normal Monster from your Deck to your hand. RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Unless you're running a Normal Monster deck that uses high-level monsters, don't run this. |
| TAEV-EN056 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Double Summon Normal Spell You can Normal Summon 1 additional time this turn. You can only gain this effect once per turn. RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | There are very limited uses for this card since you can use Ancient Rules to bring out a high-level Normal Monster without tributes but you can't with this card. Use AR instead. |
| TAEV-EN055 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Flint Missile Quick-Play Spell Destroy 1 monster equipped with "Flint". You can return this card to your Deck instead of sending it to the Graveyard after it resolves. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | A sad excuse to run Flint. Don't run it or this card. |
| TAEV-EN054 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Cyberdark Impact! Normal Spell Return 1 "Cyberdark Edge", "Cyberdark Keel" and "Cyberdark Horn" from your side of the field, hand, or Graveyard to your Deck. Special Summon 1 "Cyberdark Dragon" from your Fusion Deck. (This Special Summon is treated as a Fusion Summon.) SECRET RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | The Contact Fusion for Cyber Dark Dragon! It's definitely better than using Polymerization/Future Fusion, Overload Fusion but still not a great card to use. |
| TAEV-EN053 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Venom Shot Normal Spell Activate only while you control a face-up "Venom" monster, "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes", or "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes". Send 1 Reptile-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard and place 2 Venom Counters on 1 face-up monster your opponent controls. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | The only use for this is when your opponent's monster(s) have no more than 500 ATK left or on one monster that has no more than 1000 ATK left. |
| TAEV-EN052 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Snake Rain Normal Spell Discard 1 card. Select 4 Reptile-Type monsters from your Deck and send them to the Graveyard. RARE |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | Unless this is to power up Vennominion or Vennominaga, don't run this. |
| TAEV-EN051 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Venom Swamp Field Spell Monsters lose 500 ATK for each Venom Counter on them. Destroy a monster if its ATK becomes 0 by this effect. During each player's End Phase, place 1 Venom Counter on each face-up monster, except "Venom" monsters. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | In Venom decks, this card is decent but elsewhere, it's trash. |
| TAEV-EN050 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Cocoon Rebirth Continuous Spell You can Tribute 1 face-up "Chrysalis" monster you control to Special Summon 1 "Neo-Spacian" monster written in the card text of that card from either player's Graveyard. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | While not the worst card in the set, it's not the best either but it can be somewhat okay for bringing out Flare Scarab or Grand Mole though. |
| TAEV-EN049 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | NEX Normal Spell Send 1 face-up "Neo-Spacian" monster you control to the Graveyard. Special Summon 1 Level 4 monster with the same name from your Fusion Deck. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | You're better off using Metamorphosis in every other deck and keeping this card in Jaden's Neo Space deck. |
| TAEV-EN048 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Cocoon Party Normal Spell Special Summon 1 "Chrysalis" monster from your Deck for each "Neo-Spacian" monster with a different name in your Graveyard. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | A pretty bad card. The only good thing about it is extra tributes or extra defenses. Keep this in Jaden's Neo Space deck only. |
| TAEV-EN047 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Convert Contact Normal Spell Activate only while you control no monsters. Send 1 "Neo-Spacian" monster from your hand and 1 from your Deck to the Graveyard. Then draw 2 cards. COMMON |

| Comments: | Same as TAEV-EN046's comments. |
| TAEV-EN046 | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Reverse of Neos Quick-Play Spell Activate only when a face-up "Neos" Fusion Monster you control is destroyed. Special Summon 1 "Elemental Hero Neos" from your Deck in Attack Position. It gains 1000 ATK and is destroyed during the End Phase of this turn. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | Just keep this card in Jaden's Neo Space deck only. |
| TAEV-EN045* | |
| Card Type: | Spell Card |
| Card Info | Fifth Hope Normal Spell Select 5 "Elemental Hero" cards from your Graveyard and shuffle them into the Deck. Then draw 2 cards. Draw 3 cards instead if you had no other cards on your side of the field and in your hand when you activated this card. SUPER RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | The PoA for Elemental Heroes and a particularly bad one since you need 5 Elemental Heroes in your Graveyard to use it and Pot is better since it can be ANY 5 monsters. So outside Elemental Heroes, use PoA. |
| TAEV-EN044 | |
| Card Type: | Fusion Monster |
| Card Info | Ojama Knight LIGHT / Beast-Type Fusion / Level 5 / ATK 0 / DEF 2500 1 "Ojama" monster + 1 "Ojama" monster Select up to 2 of your opponent's Monster Card Zones. The selected zones cannot be used. COMMON |
| Rating: | 3 |
| Comments: | Play him with Ojama King and your opponent cannot Summon or Set anything unless the King and his Knight leave your field and with 2500 DEF, that won't be easy! Plus, summoning him is pretty easy! |
| TAEV-EN043 | |
| Card Type: | Fusion Monster |
| Card Info | Elemental Hero Magma Neos FIRE / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 9 / ATK 3000 / DEF 2500 "Elemental Hero Neos" + "Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab" + "Neo-Spacian Grand Mole" This card can only be Special Summoned from your Fusion Deck by returning the above cards you control to the Deck. (You do not use "Polymerization".) This card gains 400 ATK for each card on the field. This card returns to the Fusion Deck during the End Phase. When this card is returned to the Fusion Deck by this effect, return all cards on the field to their owner's hands. SECRET RARE |
| Rating: | 4 |
| Comments: | 3000 ATK and getting 400 ATK for each card on the field for a potential 11,800 ATK is quite decent but he needs 3 monsters to be summoned and without Neo Space, he returns to the Fusion Deck at the End Phase. |
| TAEV-EN042* | |
| Card Type: | Fusion Monster |
| Card Info | Elemental Hero Darkbright DARK / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 6 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1000 "Elemental Hero Sparkman" + "Elemental Hero Necroshade" This monster cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon. During battle between this attacking card and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent. If this card attacks, it is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Damage Step. If this card is destroyed, destroy 1 monster your opponent controls. ULTRA RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | The ONLY reason why this card gets 2/5 is because he possesses the trample effect as Dasher can run over this card with ease no matter which mode Darkbright is in. |
| TAEV-EN041 | |
| Card Type: | Fusion Monster |
| Card Info | Elemental Hero Marine Neos WATER / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2300 "Elemental Hero Neos" + "Neo-Spacian Marine Dolphin" This card can only be Special Summoned from your Fusion Deck by returning the above cards you control to the Deck. (You do not use "Polymerization".) Once per turn, you can select 1 random card from your opponent's hand and destroy it. RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Being 2800 ATK, I would've expected more but since he's a Rare, he's not much at all. Keep him in Jaden's Neo Space deck only. |
| TAEV-EN040 | |
| Card Type: | Fusion Monster |
| Card Info | Neo-Spacian Marine Dolphin WATER / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 4 / ATK 900 / DEF 1100 This card's name is also treated as "Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin". This card cannot be Special Summoned except with "NEX". Once per turn, you can discard 1 card to look at your opponent's hand and select 1 Monster Card in it. If you control a monster with an ATK greater than or equal to the selected monster's, destroy the selected card and inflict 500 damage to your opponent. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | A powered-up Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin is about all this card is and he isn't worth using anywhere but Jaden's Neo Space deck so keep him there. |
| TAEV-EN039* | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Zombie Master DARK / Zombie / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 0 Once per turn, you can send 1 Monster Card from your hand to the Graveyard to Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Zombie-Type Monster from either player's Graveyard. SUPER RARE |
| Rating: | 3 |
| Comments: | 1800 ATK is a nice start but his effect is quite decent, especially in a Zombie deck! That lack of DEF doesn't help him much though. |
| TAEV-EN038 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Dark Effigy DARK / Fiend / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 0 If you Tribute Summon a DARK Normal Monster, you can treat this 1 monster as 2 Tributes. COMMON |

| Card Info | Razor Lizard EARTH / Reptile / Level 3 / ATK 1500 / DEF 300 When this card attacks a face-down Defense Position monster while there is another Reptile-Type monster on your side of the field besides this card, destroy the monster immediately with this card's effect without flipping it face-up, or applying damage calculation. COMMON |
| Rating: | 1 |
| Comments: | With those stats, anyone who uses him is about as sharp as the frills on Razor Lizard's head! Use Drillroid instead. |
| TAEV-EN035 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Ritual Raven DARK / Fiend / Level 1 / ATK 300 / DEF 300 If you Ritual Summon a DARK Ritual Monster, this 1 card can be used as the entire Tribute. COMMON |
| Rating: | 4 |
| Comments: | 4/5 for a monster with 300 ATK and DEF? Why???? He can take up the entire tribute for any DARK Ritual monster, making him a must for any DARK Fiend deck or a deck that uses DARK Ritual monsters. |
| TAEV-EN034* | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Desert Twister WIND / Fiend / Level 6 / ATK 2300 / DEF 2000 This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by removing from play 1 EARTH and 2 WIND monsters from your Graveyard. Once per turn, you can discard 1 card to destroy 1 Spell or Trap Card on the field. ULTRA RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Like his twin brother FaFD, Desert Twister isn't any better since he has the same stats, same lousy effect except it's destroying a Spell or Trap instead of a monster and can easily be clobbered by the same monsters. |
| TAEV-EN033 | |
| Card Type: | Effect Monster |
| Card Info | Frost and Flame Dragon WATER / Dragon / Level 6 / ATK 2300 / DEF 2000 This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by removing from play 1 FIRE and 2 WATER monsters from your Graveyard. Once per turn, you can discard 1 card to destroy 1 monster on the field. SECRET RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Neither his stats of (2300/2000) or his effect aren't all that impressive since you can only do it once per turn, making him an overall disappointing SCR card. |

| Comments: | Being able to search out Neo Space can be quite helpful especially if you're running a Contact Fusion deck! 1800 ATK is also nice elsewhere! |

| Comments: | This guy is a watered down Jar of Greed as you keep only one of the cards you picked up. If, however, it let you keep both cards, then it'd get a higher rating. |

| Comments: | A poor excuse to save yourself from being wiped out by your opponent in one turn but he can only return one monster while Penguin Soldier can return 2 so use that instead. |

| Comments: | A Black Hole has more gravity than this card and will pull anything too close into it. Plus it's stats won't keep it on the field long and the only use for this card is if your opponent only has Attack Position monsters. |

| Card Info | Flint Lock LIGHT / Machine / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 800 Once per turn, you can equip a "Flint" on the field to this card. You can take any "Flint" equipped to this card and equip it to another face-up monster. This card can only be equipped with one "Flint" at a time. While equipped with "Flint", this card is unaffected by "Flint's" effect and cannot be destroyed by battle. COMMON |

| Comments: | Yet another weak monster that
probably won't see play as it's a watered down Spirit Reaper/ Marshmallon. Use SR or Marshmallon instead. |

| Card Info | Shadow Delver DARK / Fiend-Type Gemini / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 500 This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it be treated as an Effect Monster with this effect: ● Once per turn, you can select 1 face-up Level 4 or lower DARK monster you control. It can attack your opponent directly this turn. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Another pretty bad Gemini-Type monster. Although he can allow a DARK monster to attack directly, it must be level 4, which really hurts this card's playability. |

| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | A high-level Gemini with poor stats. Sure he can deal 1000 damage each turn but Solar Flare Dragon is better since his effects will almost always resolve and can't be attacked if you have another Pyro-Type monster out. |

When this card is removed from the field, destroy all Fiend-Type monsters Special Summoned by this effect. SUPER RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Pretty high stats for one tribute! Plus, he can bring back Fiend-Type monsters from either Graveyard at no cost but he isn't a Fiend-Type monster and if he leaves the field, so do the Special Summoned monsters. |

While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it be treated as an Effect Monster with this effect: ● The original DEF of this card becomes 2300. COMMON |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Getting 2300 DEF isn't the worst effect to use but Destiny Hero - Defender has 2700 DEF and doesn't need to be re-summoned. So outside Gemini decks, run Defender instead. |

RARE |
| Rating: | 2 |
| Comments: | Being able to attack all monsters your opponent controls is quite decent but stats of (2350/1000) and having to be re-summoned to get the effect isn't so keep this card in Gemini-Type monster decks. |
