CSOC-EN099
Botanical Lion
EARTH / Plant / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 2000
This card gains 300 ATK for each face-up Plant-Type monster you control. Control of this face-up card cannot switch.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: 2000 DEF and being immune to cards that steal it from you is good enough for a 3-star rating but low ATK keeps it there.
CSOC-EN098
Elemental Hero Divine Neos
LIGHT / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 12 / ATK 2500 / DEF 2500
This card cannot be Special Summoned except by a Fusion Summon of any 5 "Neos", "Neo-Spacian", "Elemental Hero", "Destiny Hero" or "Evil Hero" monsters including at least 1 "Neos" monster, 1 "Neo-Spacian" monster, and 1 "Hero" monster. Once per turn, you can remove from play from 1 "Neos", "Neo-Spacian", "Elemental Hero", "Destiny Hero" or "Evil Hero" monster from your Graveyard to have this card gain 500 ATK. It also gains the removed monster's effect(s), until the End Phase.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: This guy has heavy summoning requirements, pretty low stats for a level 12 monster and unlike NW, is prone to just about everything in the game!
CSOC-EN097
Neos Wiseman
LIGHT / Spellcaster / Level 10 / ATK 3000 / DEF 3000
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by sending 1 face-up "Elemental Hero Neos" and 1 face-up "Yubel" you control to the Graveyard. This card cannot be destroyed by card effects. If this card battles an opponent's monster, at the end of the Damage Step, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the ATK of the monster it battled, and gain Life Points equal to that monster's DEF.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: It's getting this bad boy out that's the hard part! Succeed and there's very little your opponent can do to stop him! It's his summoning requirements and stats that bring his rating to only 3 stars.
CSOC-EN096
Red Ogre
EARTH / Zombie / Level 7 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2100
When this card is Normal Summoned, you can send any number of cards from your hand to the Graveyard to return an equal number of cards from the field to their owners' hand.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Since I'm sure your opponent won't have much on the field, this card won't force you to discard a handful but its effect only works when Normal Summoned.
CSOC-EN095
Goka, the Pyre of Malice
FIRE / Zombie / Level 6 / ATK 2200 / DEF 1900
You can Special Summon this card from your hand if you control a FIRE monster. When this card is Special Summoned this way, destroy 1 FIRE monster you control. During your Standby Phase, Special Summon 1 "Fireball Token"
(Pyro-Type/FIRE/Level 1/ATK 100/DEF 100) in Defense Position. You can Tribute 1 other FIRE monster to have this card gain 500 ATK, until the End Phase.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: A card that is beneficial for FIRE decks, especially those that run Backfire but not so great elsewhere.
CSOC-EN094
Mosaic Manticore
EARTH / Beast / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2500
During the Standby Phase of your next turn after you Tribute Summon this card, Special Summon the monsters Tributed to Summon it from your Graveyard. They cannot declare an attack, and their effects are negated.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: At least you can Tribute the monsters or use them for something else but still this card isn't very good.
CSOC-EN093
Machine Lord Ür
EARTH / Machine / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 1500
This card can attack all monsters your opponent controls once each. Any Battle Damage this card inflicts to your opponent becomes 0.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: I'm aware that there is an accent over the U in UR and I'm sure it's pronounced differently but since this card is so terrible I will ignore them with this message "UR not playable".
CSOC-EN092
Virus Cannon
Normal Trap
Tribute any number of non-Token monsters you control. For each Tributed monster, your opponent selects 1 Spell Card from their Deck and sends it to the Graveyard.
RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Good thing this card was a Rare as it clearly deserved it (although a Common would've been better). Keep this card inside Kaiba decks only.
CSOC-EN091
Time Machine
Normal Trap
Activate only when a monster is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard. Special Summon that monster to the same side of the field it was on, in the same battle position it was in when destroyed.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: What hurts this card (and brings this card's rating down) is that it cannot bring back monsters who cannot be Special Summoned except by their methods. It can still bring back other monsters though.
CSOC-EN090
Puppet Master
DARK / Fiend / Level 6 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
When this card is Tribute Summoned you can pay 2000 Life Points to Special Summon 2 Fiend-Type monsters from your Graveyard. They cannot attack this turn.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: It can bring back 2 Fiend-Type monsters from your Graveyard but at a steep cost, only when Tribute Summoned with its lousy stats and the monsters it Special Summons can't attack right away!
CSOC-EN089
Treacherous Trap Hole
Normal Trap
Destroy 2 monsters on the field. You cannot activate this card if you have any Trap Cards in your Graveyard.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: What's unfortunate is that its rarity really doesn't support its effect. It's good enough in RFG decks or elsewhere but not good enough for a higher rating.
CSOC-EN088
Tempest Magician
DARK / Spellcaster-Type Synchro / Level 6 / ATK 2200 / DEF 1400
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner Spellcaster-Type monsters
When this card is Synchro Summoned, place 1 Spell Counter on it. Once per turn, you can discard any number of cards to place 1 Spell Counter on a monster(s) you control for each card you discarded. You can remove all Spell Counters on the field to inflict 500 damage to your opponent for each removed Spell Counter.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: While his stats and level would bring her rating down, it's her effect that brings it back up. It will see more play if the new Spellcaster deck hits US shores.
CSOC-EN087
Night's End Sorcerer
DARK / Spellcaster-Type Tuner / Level 2 / ATK 1300 / DEF 400
When this card is Special Summoned, you can remove from play up to 2 cards from your opponent's Graveyard.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Class, what do we know about this card? "Um it's a Tuner monster" Very good, anything else? *crickets* That's right, there is nothing else good about this card!
CSOC-EN086
Gladiator Beast Retiari
WATER / Aqua / Level 3 / ATK 1200 / DEF 800
When this card is Special Summoned by the effect of a "Gladiator Beast" monster, you can remove from play 1 card from your opponent's Graveyard. At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card attacked or was attacked, you can return it to the Deck to Special Summon 1 "Gladiator Beast" monster from your Deck, except "Gladiator Beast Retiari".
SECRET RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: I think UDE made a typo when translating it's name for it should say "Gladiator Beast Retarded" as it's one of the worst SCR cards out as absolutely NOTHING makes up for its SCR status.
CSOC-EN085
Rai-Mei
LIGHT / Thunder / Level 3 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1200
When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, you can add 1 Level 2 or lower LIGHT monster from your Deck to your hand.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: It's a no-brainer to take this monster out! What is a hard task though is bringing out a playable monster that fits her requirements.
CSOC-EN084
Rai-Jin
LIGHT / Thunder / Level 4 / ATK ? / DEF 1000
All LIGHT monsters you control gain 100 ATK for each LIGHT monster in your Graveyard. During your End Phase, destroy 1 LIGHT monster you control. There can only be 1 face-up "Rai-Jin" on the field.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Another bad Super Rare card (like it hasn't happened before). You would need 18+ LIGHT monsters in your Graveyard to make her a threat and what's worse, you have to destroy 1 of your own monsters.
CSOC-EN083
Overdrive Teleporter
LIGHT / Psychic / Level 6 / ATK 2100 / DEF 1200
This card cannot be Special Summoned. You can pay 2000 Life Points to Special Summon 2 Level 3 Psychic-Type monsters from your Deck. This effect can only be used once while this card is face-up on the field.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: You could use the effect help to bring out Synchro monster but 2000 LPs is a pretty steep cost and since the effect can only be used once while face up, I don't really see why it was made a SCR.
CSOC-EN082
Cactus Fighter
EARTH / Plant / Level 4 / ATK 1900 / DEF 400
If this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle, Special Summon 1 "Needle Token" (Plant-Type/EARTH/Level 1/ATK 500/DEF 500) to your opponent's side of the field in Defense Position.
RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: He loses 1 star because he gives your opponent an extra defense for their LPs but still a good card overall.
CSOC-EN081*
Seed of Flame
FIRE / Plant / Level 3 / ATK 1600 / DEF 1200
When this card you control is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Plant-Type monster, except "Seed of Flame", from your Graveyard. Also, Special Summon 1 "Seed Token" (Plant-Type/
EARTH/Level 1/ATK 0/DEF 0) to your opponent's side of the field in Defense Position. This Token cannot be Tributed for a Tribute Summon.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: This card is somewhat useful in Plant decks but absolutely terrible elsewhere.
CSOC-EN080
Giant Trap Hole
Normal Trap
Activate only when 2 or more monsters are Special Summoned at the same time. Destroy all monsters on the field.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: You could use this to take out the Revival Gift Tokens you gave your opponent but then you would also lose the monster you brought back with RG's effect. Overall not a very playable card.
