IOC-079
Skull-Mark Ladybug
EARTH / Insect / Level 4 / ATK 500 / DEF 1500
When this card is sent to the Graveyard, increase your Life Points by 1000 points.
SHORT PRINT COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: At least you get 1000 Life Points for having it die on the field but that's all it has left.
IOC-078
Pinch Hopper
EARTH / Insect / Level 4 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1200
When this card on your side of the field is sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Insect-Type Monster from your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: In most cases, you're going to want to tribute this card to a) play a better monster and b) use its effect for yet another monster but both monsters are likely to be Bottomless Trap Holed by your opponent.
IOC-077
Prickle Fairy
EARTH / Plant / Level 4 / ATK 300 / DEF 2000
Your opponent cannot attack Insect-Type monsters unless he/she destroys this card first. The Battle Position of a monster that battles with this card is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Damage Step.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: 2000 DEF grants this card a 2-star rating and a chance to be somewhat playable.
IOC-076
Anti-Aircraft Flower
EARTH / Plant / Level 3 / ATK 0 / DEF 1600
Offer 1 Insect-Type monster on your side of the field as a Tribute to inflict 800 points of damage to your opponent's Life Points.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: I'm not sure that an aircraft would land on this flower anyway with its weak DEF and lack of any sort of ATK.
IOC-075
Black Tyranno
EARTH / Dinosaur / Level 7 / ATK 2600 / DEF 1800
If the only cards on your opponent's side of the field are Defense Position Monster Cards, this card can attack your opponent's Life Points directly.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: This dino will quickly become extinct when bigger and better dinos hit the field and his effect is the only reason for not giving him 1/5.
IOC-074
Hyper Hammerhead
EARTH / Dinosaur / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1200
When this monster battles an opponent's monster, if the opponent's monster is not destroyed as a result of battle, the opponent's monster is returned to its owner's hand at the end of the Damage Step.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Very low stats and virtually complete contrary to Dark Driceratops: Not playable, low stats, no tribute and overall horrible to use.
IOC-073
Dark Driceratops
EARTH / Dinosaur / Level 6 / ATK 2400 / DEF 1500
When this card attacks with an ATK that is higher than the DEF of your opponent's Defense Position monster, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points.
RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: 2400 ATK and the trample ability is very nice along with the one tribute!
IOC-072
Balloon Lizard
EARTH / Reptile / Level 4 / ATK 500 / DEF 1900
Put 1 counter on this card during each of your Standby Phases. When this card is destroyed, inflict damage equal to the number of counters x400 points to the controller of the card that destroyed this card.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: 1900 DEF stops attacks from even Gemini Elf and the MFC Luster Dragon but GAF and GO can knock it down with ease.
IOC-071
Don Turtle
WATER / Reptile / Level 3 / ATK 1100 / DEF 1200
When this card is Normal Summoned or Flip Summoned successfully, you can Special Summon any number of "Don Turtle(s)" from your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: This is a turtle that you'd find dead in the road or in this case, the Graveyard or more likely a trash can because he isn't wanted by anyone.
IOC-070
Enraged Battle Ox
EARTH / Beast-Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1700 / DEF 1000
As long as this card remains face-up on your side of the field, when Beast, Beast-Warrior, and Winged Beast-Type monsters on your side of the field attack with an ATK that is higher than the DEF of your opponent's Defense Position monster, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: If it weren't for his semi-decent effect, there would be no reason to give this card 2/5 unless he had a better effect.
IOC-069
Sacred Crane
LIGHT / Winged Beast / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 400
When this card is Special Summoned, the controller of this card draws 1 card.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Same as IOC-064's comments.
IOC-068
Stealth Bird
DARK / Winged Beast / Level 3 / ATK 700 / DEF 1700
You can flip this card into face-down Defense Position once per turn during your Main Phase. When this card is Flip Summoned successfully, inflict 1000 points of damage to your opponent's Life Points.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: With only 1700 DEF, he's not going to likely last one turn and is easy prey after the first flip up to face down.
IOC-067
Manticore of Darkness
FIRE / Beast-Warrior / Level 6 / ATK 2300 / DEF 1000
During the End Phase of the turn this card is sent to the Graveyard, send 1 Beast, Beast-Warrior, or Winged Beast-Type Monster Card from your hand or your side of the field to the Graveyard to Special Summon this card from the Graveyard.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: I have given this monster 2/5 for he makes for decent tribute bait when you're out of Monsters or an extra attack.
IOC-066
Gora Turtle of Illusion
WATER / Aqua / Level 4 / ATK 1200 / DEF 1400
Negate the effect of Spell and Trap Cards controlled by your opponent that specifically designate this face-up card on the field as a target.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: It's no illusion when this guy is destroyed and you lose the duel for not having enough Monsters to withstand your opponent's attacks. Find a better Monster.
IOC-065
Dark Magician of Chaos
DARK / Spellcaster / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2600
When this card is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned successfully, you can add 1 Spell Card from your Graveyard to your hand. A monster that is destroyed by this monster as a result of battle is removed from play instead of going to the Graveyard. When this card is destroyed or removed from the field, it is removed from play.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: Had the big Spell Cards Monster Reborn etc not been banned, I'd certainly rate this card higher but with only 2800 ATK and a limited number of Spells to retrieve, he receives a 3/5.
IOC-064
Molten Zombie
FIRE / Zombie / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 400
When this card is Special Summoned from the Graveyard, the controller of this card draws 1 card.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: He only receives a 2/5 for when you Special Summon him you draw 1 card. Had this not been his effect, his rating would most likely be 1/5.
IOC-063
The Thing in the Crater
FIRE / Pyro / Level 4 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1200
When this card is destroyed and sent from the field to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Pyro-Type Monster from your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: I suppose you could use this to bring out Flame Cerebrus as it currently stands as the strongest Pyro-Type Monster out thus far, although more may come later but we shall see.
IOC-062
Burning Algae
FIRE / Plant / Level 3 / ATK 500 / DEF 1500
When this card is sent to the Graveyard, increase your opponent's Life Points by 1000 points.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Surely if you're not running this in a Bad Reaction to Simochi deck then the algae won't be the only thing burning.
IOC-061
Blazing Inpachi
FIRE / Pyro / Level 4 / ATK 1850 / DEF 0
A wicked wooden spirit now burning in flames. Its fire attack is powerful, but it will soon be nothing but ashes.
COMMON
Rating: 3
Comments: With 1850 ATK, it's enough to destroy X-Head Cannon, La Jinn and Dark Blade! That 0 DEF won't help it in Defense Mode, though.
IOC-060
Terrorking Salmon
WATER / Fish / Level 5 / ATK 2400 / DEF 1000
A feared salmon, master of the Sea of Darkness. Its roe is the best delicacy in the World of Darkness.
COMMON
Rating: 4
Comments: This card is a must for almost any deck!
