Sneak Preview
SP1-EN002
Amazoness Chain Master
EARTH / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1300
When this monster is destroyed as a result of battle and sent to the Graveyard, by paying 1500 Life Points, look at your opponent's hand and select 1 Monster Card from it. Add the selected card to your hand, and you can use it in this Duel. (When the card is sent to the Graveyard, it is sent to the Graveyard of the owner.)
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: She's horrible. Paying 1500 LPs to look and take an opponent's card from his or her hand is just really bad and her stats don't do justice either. Stick her in Mai decks only.
SP1-EN001
Cyber Harpie Lady
WIND / Winged Beast / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 1300
This card's name is treated as "Harpie Lady".
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: She's a must for WIND, Harpie and Mai Valentine decks!

WC5-EN003
Mind Control
Normal Spell
Take control of 1 monster on your opponent's side of the field until the End Phase. This monster cannot declare an attack or be Tributed.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: This is one of Espa Roba's horrible cards as it doesn't deserve any play in any deck.
WC5-EN002
Kaibaman
LIGHT / Warrior / Level 3 / ATK 200 / DEF 700
Tribute this card to Special Summon 1 "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" from your hand.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: He only gets 2/5 for allowing Blue-Eyes to be summoned more easily.
WC5-EN001
Silent Swordsman LV7
LIGHT / Warrior / Level 7 / ATK 2800 / DEF 1000
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by the effect of "Silent Swordsman LV5". As long as this card remains face-up on your side of the field, negate the effect of all Spell Cards on the field.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: For a Monster with only 2800 ATK for an effect that requires LV5 to attack directly and still be out during your next Standby Phase, he is pretty horrible.
Collector's Tins 2005
CT2-EN006
Panther Warrior (original artwork)
EARTH / Beast-Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1600
This card cannot attack unless you Tribute 1 monster on your side of the field.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: His stats may be high but his effect brings him down so only use this in Joey decks.
CT2-EN005
Rocket Warrior
LIGHT / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1300
This effect is only active during the Battle Phase of your turn. Battle Damage to this card and this card's controller that they take from a battle involving this card becomes 0. After damage calculation, decrease the ATK of the monster that was attacked by this card by 500 points until the end of this turn.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: What's not to like? Sure he has stats of (1500/1300) but his effect makes damage to both himself and his controller to 0 and the attacked Monster loses 500 ATK!
CT2-EN004
Dark Magician Girl (2nd artwork)
DARK / Spellcaster / Level 6 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1700
Increase the ATK of this card by 300 points for each "Dark Magician" or "Magician of Black Chaos" in either player's Graveyard.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: 2000 ATK may not be the highest ATK for 1 tribute but with 3 Dark Magicians in both player's Graveyards gives her 900 ATK for 2900!
CT2-EN003
Vorse Raider (original artwork)
DARK / Beast-Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1900 / DEF 1200
This wicked Beast-Warrior does every horrid thing imaginable and loves it! His axe bears the marks of his countless victims.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: 1900 ATK for a DARK Monster is very nice for just about any deck including Kaiba's!
CT2-EN002
Exarion Universe
DARK / Beast-Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 1900
You can only activate this during a Battle Step of your turn. Decrease the ATK of this card by 400 points, then during battle between this attacking monster and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points. This effect continues until the End Phase of the turn this card is activated.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: His stats are quite good for being 4 stars but having to lose 400 ATK to have a trample effect isn't worth it. Give him a FMC instead of using his effect. 
CT2-EN001
Gilford the Lightning (original artwork)
LIGHT / Warrior / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 1400
If you Tribute Summon this card by Tributing 3 monsters, destroy all monsters on your opponent's side of the field.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: Tribute 3 Monster and leave your opponent defenseless! The fact is that you have to tribute 3 Monsters for that effect.
Structure Deck: Deluxe Edition
SD2-ENDE1
Rope of Life
Normal Trap

Comments: Bring back a strong Monster and make it stronger!
SD1-ENDE1
Armed Dragon LV7
WIND / Dragon / Level 7 / ATK 2800 / DEF 1000
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by the effect of "Armed Dragon LV5". Send 1 Monster Card from your hand to the Graveyard to destroy all face-up monsters on your opponent's side of the field with ATK equal to or less than the ATK of the sent monster.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: A very powerful Dragon Monster with the effect of Raigeki under the right conditions! 1000 DEF won't help him survive in Defense Position very long.
Master Collection Volume 1
MC1-EN006
Dark Ruler Ha Des
DARK / Fiend / Level 6 / ATK 2450 / DEF 1600
As long as this card remains face-up on the field, negate the effects of Effect Monsters destroyed by Fiend-Type monsters on your side of the field as a result of battle. This card cannot be Special Summoned from the Graveyard.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: Certainly one of the best Fiend Monsters out so far! 2450 takes out Jinzo, Goblin Attack Force and Rare Metal Dragon!
MC1-EN005
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 3 Fiend-Type monsters in your Graveyard from play.

As long as it is equipped with this card, you control the equipped monster.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: Bakura fans will know he uses this card against Yugi and it is a nasty card once you get past the summoning conditions. Even when destroyed, it gets equipped and you choose the Monster!
MC1-EN004
Thousand-Eyes Restrict
DARK / Spellcaster-Type Fusion / Level 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
"Relinquished" + "Thousand-Eyes Idol"
As long as this card remains face-up on the field, other monsters cannot change their battle positions or attack. Select 1 monster on your opponent's side of the field and equip it to this card (this effect can only be used once per turn and you can only equip 1 monster at a time to this card). The ATK and DEF of this card become the same amounts as the monster equipped to this card. If this card is destroyed as a result of battle, the equipped monster is destroyed instead.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: A powerhouse of a Fusion Monster! Take a weak Monster without having to worry about TER getting destroyed! A very nice card indeed!
MC1-EN003
Relinquished
DARK / Spellcaster-Type Ritual / Level 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
Select 1 monster on your opponent's side of the field and equip it to this card (this effect can only be used once per turn and you can only equip 1 monster at a time to this card). The ATK and DEF of this card become the same amounts as the monster equipped to this card. If this card is destroyed as a result of battle, the equipped monster is destroyed instead, and any battle damage you received from the battle is also inflicted to your opponent's Life Points.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: This deadly Ritual Monster is the new Snatch Steal without the +1000 for your opponent! Take a powerful Monster and deal major damage!
MC1-EN002
Barrel Dragon
DARK / Machine / Level 7 / ATK 2600 / DEF 2200
Toss a coin 3 times. If 2 out of 3 results are Heads, destroy 1 monster on your opponent's side of the field. This effect can only be used once per turn during your Main Phase.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: 2600 ATK for 2 tributes is pretty bad and its effect doesn't exactly help but can do well with a bit of luck and assistance from Second Coin Toss.
MC1-EN001
Exodia the Forbidden One
DARK / Spellcaster / Level 3 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1000
When you have "Right Leg of the Forbidden One", "Left Leg of the Forbidden One", "Right Arm of the Forbidden One" and "Left Arm of the Forbidden One" in addition to this card in you hand, you win the Duel.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Without its pieces he's simply another horrible card. The instant win is the only thing this card has when it comes to playability.
Exclusive Pack (Continued)
EP1-EN008
Return from the Different Dimension
Normal Trap
Pay half of your Life Points. Special Summon as many of your monsters as possible that have been removed from play on your side of the field. During the End Phase, remove from play all monsters that were Special Summoned by this effect.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: This doesn't serve much purpose except to retrieve XYZ Dragon Cannon, its pieces or defend your LPs when you have no Monsters to summon.
