The key phrase is "while you
control a monster(s)". That phrase alone brings down this card's
playability as it has only uses for monsters that cannot be destroyed by
battle and there aren't many. |

What hurts it is the fact that
not many of the decent Spell Cards out there are run in more than 1's,
leaving this card with not much to take out. |

It's not
that great a card since you need Dark Magician out to use it but it can
be okay if it destroys your opponent's only monster but still not to
impressive from a playability standpoint. |

Mow down
almost any monster then attack directly for heavy damage! Since it only
destroys the monster with the highest ATK as opposed to just any
monster, its rating is 3/5.

With stats
of just (300/100),
you'll want send her to the Graveyard since it will keep the damage low
(unless you have no other monsters out) and it can be okay for searching
out Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat but that's about it. |

This card's level may be 4 but
its rating is only 1 and with good reason as it has absolutely no

The only use for this card is to
buy time to get a decent monster out and even then, it's not worth it
since it applies to you as well, meaning you won't likely have anything
to use for protecting your monsters. |

Not much going for this card.
For one thing, it only works on Effect Monsters whose effect activates
upon summoning it, unless your opponent controls no monsters and you
won't want to use it on your only monster. |

Deck Devastation Virus
Normal Trap
Tribute 1 DARK monster with 2000 or more ATK. Check your opponent's

activation), and destroy all monsters with 1500 or less ATK.

This card
isn't very devastating
unless you combine it with CCV and EEV and the activation requirement of
a 2000 ATK or higher DARK monster hurts it even more. |

Run over Man-Eater Bug, Magician

to worry about their effects but he can't be Special Summoned from the Graveyard. A great card

Blowback Dragon

The only
reason I rate this guy a 2/5
is because you can take out any card your opponent controls and with
Second Coin Toss, your chances of success got easier but he's no match for even Tri-Horned Dragon. |

Dark Necrofear
DARK / Fiend / Level 8 /
ATK 2200 / DEF 2800
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be
Special Summoned by removing from play 3 Fiend-Type monsters in your
Graveyard. If this card is destroyed by battle or by your opponent's
card effect while it is a Monster Card, equip it to a monster your
opponent controls during the End Phase of this turn. Take control of the
equipped monster.

While stats
of (2200/2800)
may not seem that impressive, it makes him easily destroyed so you can
take your opponent's best monster and use it against them! Plus Foolish
Burial makes him easier to summon! |

About the only use is to annoy
your opponent for making them toss out one of their best monsters but
you have to wait until the opponent has at least 4 cards and even then a
monster isn't guaranteed. |

While it can deal massive
amounts of damage, it has to stay on the field, leaving it wide open to
MST, Heavy Storm and others. If lucky, it can win you duels but luck

A decent
card! Not only does your opponent take all Battle Damage if the token
is attacked but you can tribute it! Since
you must pay to keep the token out and you can't attack with it, this
card's rating is 3/5.
