Gold Series (Page 1)

GLD1-EN015
D.D. Warrior Lady
LIGHT / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1600
When this card battles with your opponent's monster, after damage calculation you can remove from play the opponent's monster and this card.
GOLD RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: She's at least more playable than Breaker but still isn't quite worth being a Gold Rare.
GLD1-EN014
Breaker the Magical Warrior
DARK / Spellcaster / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 1000
When this card is Normal Summoned, place 1 Spell Counter on it (max. 1). This card gains 300 ATK for each Spell Counter on it. You can remove 1 Spell Counter from this card to destroy 1 Spell or Trap Card on the field.
GOLD RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Another Gold Rare card not worth being one since he is banned and because of his overall lack of playability.
GLD1-EN013
Old Vindictive Magician
DARK / Spellcaster / Level 2 / ATK 450 / DEF 600
FLIP: Destroy 1 monster your opponent controls.
COMMON
Rating: 3
Comments: Thanks to his Flip-Effect, he can be removed from play but still get his effect to resolve!
GLD1-EN012
Don Zaloog
DARK / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1500
When this card inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent, you can select and activate 1 of these effects:
● Discard 1 random card from your opponent's hand.
● Send 2 cards from the top of your opponent's Deck to the Graveyard.
GOLD RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: It's hard enough to have this guy stay on the field let a lone deal damage to your opponent with him. Truly not worth being a Gold Rare.
GLD1-EN011
Newdoria
DARK / Fiend / Level 4 / ATK 1200 / DEF 800
When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, destroy 1 monster on the field.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: The problem is it must go to the Graveyard and be destroyed in battle to get its effect. Man-Eater and Old Vindictive do the job better.
GLD1-EN010
Des Lacooda
EARTH / Zombie / Level 3 / ATK 500 / DEF 600
Once per turn, you can flip this card into face-down Defense Position. When this card is Flip Summoned, draw 1 card.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Same as GLD1-EN009's comments.
GLD1-EN009
Swarm of Locusts
DARK / Insect / Level 3 / ATK 1000 / DEF 500
Once per turn, you can flip this card into face-down Defense Position. When this card is Flip Summoned, destroy 1 Spell or Trap Card your opponent controls.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Same as GLD1-EN008's comments.
GLD1-EN008
Swarm of Scarabs
DARK / Insect / Level 3 / ATK 500 / DEF 1000
Once per turn, you can flip this card into face-down Defense Position. When this card is Flip Summoned, destroy 1 monster your opponent controls.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: You're going to need to have stall cards to make this card useful.
GLD1-EN007
8-Claws Scorpion
DARK / Insect / Level 2 / ATK 300 / DEF 200
Once per turn, you can flip this card into face-down Defense Position. When this card attacks an opponent's face-down Defense Position monster, this card's ATK becomes 2400 during damage calculation only.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Its stats are absolutely horrendous! So why rate him 2 stars? When it battles a face down Defense Position monster, its ATK becomes 2400 for damage calculation. Not too bad but not great.
GLD1-EN006
Needle Worm
EARTH / Insect / Level 2 / ATK 750 / DEF 600
FLIP: Discard 5 cards from the top of your opponent's Deck to the Graveyard.
COMMON
Rating: 3
Comments: This bug knocks off your opponent's next 5 cards from their deck and puts them in the Grave! Very nice but it doesn't stop attacks.
GLD1-EN005
Fire Princess
FIRE / Pyro / Level 4 / ATK 1300 / DEF 1500
Each time you gain Life Points, inflict 500 damage to your opponent.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Minimal burn damage and bad stats make the princess anything but royal or playable.
GLD1-EN004
Summoner of Illusions
LIGHT / Spellcaster / Level 3 / ATK 800 / DEF 900
FLIP: Tribute 1 other monster to Special Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Fusion Deck. The Fusion Monster is destroyed at the end of the turn this effect is activated.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: He is certainly the summoner of illusions as the Fusion Monster you summon with his effect doesn't stay on the field but he gives new players the illusion that it is. His rating is no illusion and neither are his bad stats.
GLD1-EN003
Jinzo (original artwork)
DARK / Machine / Level 6 / ATK 2400 / DEF 1500
Trap Cards cannot be activated. The effects of all face-up Trap Cards are negated.
GOLD RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: The ultimate Trap Negater has been made a Gold Rare and he should since he only needs one tribute and has high ATK! He negates your Trap Cards too though, which keeps him from getting 5 stars.
GLD1-EN002
Sonic Bird
WIND / Winged Beast / Level 4 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1000
When this card is Normal or Flip Summoned, add 1 Ritual Spell Card from your Deck to your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: His playability shot down more quickly than he flies since he can only search Ritual Spells, making him a dead draw if you already have the Ritual Spell in your hand. Use Manju instead.
GLD1-EN001
7 Colored Fish
WATER / Fish / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 800
A rare rainbow fish that has never been caught by mortal man.
COMMON
Rating: 3
Comments: It isn't a rare fish anymore but it still is quite powerful with 1800 ATK!
