Yu-Gi-Oh Anime Cards (Page 17)

*Card effects below are as accurate as possible.
Episode 16: The Duel Giant
Half Goblin
DARK / Fiend / Level 3 / ATK 500 / DEF 500
You can discard 1 Warrior-Type monster to Special Summon this card from your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: You'd be wasting resources for a monster that does nothing else once it hits the field, especially since Fiend's Sanctuary brings out a Token of the same Type but without the cost.
Episode 15: Courting Alexis
Giant Racket
Anime Equip Spell
Once per turn, the equipped monster cannot be destroyed by battle, and its controller takes no Battle Damage from that battle.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Somewhat better than Mist Body as you can reduce Battle Damage to 0 but not better than cards like Waboku, which don't even need you to control monsters to activate them.
The Big Server
EARTH / Warrior / Level 3 / ATK 300 / DEF 300
This card can attack your opponent directly. When this card inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent, you can add 1 "Service Ace" from your Deck to your hand. If you do, your opponent draws 1 card.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Dealing Battle Damage with a monster is hard enough when they're this weak and for that you just get an equally poor card to add to your hand.
Deuce
Anime Continuous Spell
Activate only while both players have 1000 Life Points. Only 1 monster can attack during each Battle Phase. The player that inflicts damage to their opponent twice wins the Duel. If a player takes damage from their opponent, the number of times that player is considered to have inflicted damage becomes 0. (While this card is face-up on the field, neither player can lose the Duel if their Life Points become 0.)
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Strict activation conditions and then you can only attack with one monster and only win if you attack twice.
Smash Ace
Anime Normal Spell
Reveal the top card of your Deck. If it is a Monster Card, inflict 1000 damage to your opponent. Send the card revealed by this effect to the Graveyard.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: There's no downside if you get it wrong but it's still a 1 in three chance unless you manipulate those odds.
Receive Ace
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when an opponent's monster declares a direct attack. Negate the attack, and inflict 1500 damage to your opponent. Then, send the top 3 cards of your Deck to the Graveyard.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: You wouldn't always get to use it but when you did, negating an attack and inflicting a 1500 damage for the top 3 cards of your Deck isn't all that bad.
Service Ace
Anime Normal Spell
Select 1 card in your hand. Your opponent must guess whether it is a Spell, Trap or Monster Card. Reveal it to your opponent. If they guessed wrong, inflict 1500 damage to your opponent. Remove from play the selected card when this card resolves.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: You could deal at least close to this card's burn damage without the risk.
Episode 14: A Spirit Summoned
Clay Wrap
Anime Equip Spell
Equip only to "Elemental Hero Clayman". When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, you can destroy 1 Spell or Trap Card your opponent controls.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: If you want to destory an opponent's Spell/Trap Card, use MST over this as it's much quicker and versatile.
Episode 13: Monkey See, Monkey Duel
Courageous Charge
Anime Normal Spell
Activate only by paying 1000 LPs. Select 1 monster  you control with 1000 or less ATK. If it inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent, inflict damage to your opponent equal to its DEF.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: While there may be situations where this'd work, it's not worh paying 1000 LP because the odds of that monster inflicting battle damage are near zero.
Episode 12: Formula for Success
Amorphous Barrier
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when an opponent's monster declares an attack while you control 3 or more monsters. End the Battle Phase.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Even at the time this card appeared, better options existed like Waboku, Threatening Roar, and Negate Attack.
Episode 11: Tag-Team Trial (2)
One-on-One Fight
Anime Normal Trap
This turn, each player selects 1 monster they control with the highest ATK. Conduct battle between the selected monsters.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: The only real situation that works with this is when your monster is stronger, but even then, Battle Mania can go further than this.
Dark Guardian
DARK / Warrior  Level 12 / ATK 3800 / DEF 3800
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by "Dark Element". This card cannot be destroyed by battle.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Now you can see why this card has such a low rating. The only plus is its ATK and DEF because everything else can be found in monsters that take less effort to bring out, and may even offer more.
Dark Element
Anime Normal Spell
Activate only if "Gate Guardian" is in your Graveyard. Pay half your Life Points to Special Summon 1 "Dark Guardian" from your Deck. You cannot Normal Summon or Set this turn.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Don't see why you'd waste the effort to have Gate Guardian in the first place unless to power up Zubaba General and even that is pretty mediocre as is and all this brings out is a beatstick that can't be destroyed in battle, which is practically redundant given that monster's ATK and DEF.
Episode 10: Tag-Team Trial (1)
Defense Wall
EARTH / Rock / Level 4 / ATK 0 / DEF 2100
While this card is in face-up Defense Position, your opponent cannot attack other monsters you control.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: It won't do anything against card effects but if you protect it from those, then this wouldn't be too bad but still not great overall.
Episode 9: Family Business
Flipping the Table
Anime Continuous Spell
Once per turn, you can destroy all other cards you control, then destroy cards your opponent controls, up to the number of your cards destroyed by this effect. You cannot Summon the turn you activate this effect.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Even Chumley knew this card was risky because you're not able to Summon the turn the effect is used but it worked to his dad's advantage anyway.
Hot Sauce Bottle
Anime Equip Spell
When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, inflict 500 damage to your opponent.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Not as good as Black Pendant, which also gives a 500 ATK boost.
Dizzy Angel
EARTH / Fairy / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 400
This card is not destroyed by the effect of "Flipping the Table".
COMMON
Rating: 3
Comments: You may certainly use it with the all-powerful Flipping the Table card to avoid that card's drawback but it also works well on its own like Dizzy Tiger.
Koala March
Anime Normal Spell
Select 1 Level 4 or lower "Koala" monster in your Graveyard, and Special Summon it. Then, you can Special Summon 1 monster with the same name from your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: There'd be more plays with this now than there were when this card debuted but either way, none of them surpass any of the other uses.
Dizzy Tiger
EARTH / Beast / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 600
Negate the effect of face-down Defense Position monsters attacked by this card.
COMMON
Rating: 3
Comments: Even as is, it's a decent card for future use in your Deck because it's a beatstick with 1800 ATK and low level, and it'll get over pesky defensive monsters like Marshmallon and Obnoxious Celtic Guard.
