REDU-EN039

At the end of the Damage Step, if this Defense Position card was attacked by a monster whose ATK is lower than this card's DEF: Destroy the attacking monster.
SHORT PRINT COMMON
Rating: 3
Comments: This guy has finally accumulated enough needles to be considered good in my book, even if you take out the effect.
REDU-EN038
Grandsoil the Elemental Lord
EARTH / Beast-Warrior / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2200
Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be Special Summoned (from your hand) by having exactly 5 EARTH monsters in your Graveyard, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. When this card is Special Summoned: You can target 1 monster in either player's Graveyard; Special Summon that target to your side of the field. If this card leaves the field, skip the Battle Phase of your next turn.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: He's the only kind of soil that isn't going to make anything grow, including his playability!
REDU-EN037
Illusory Snatcher
DARK / Fiend / Level 7 / ATK 2400 / DEF 1000
When you Tribute Summon a monster: You can Special Summon this card from your hand, and if you do, the Type, Attribute, and Level of this card become the same as that face-up Tribute Summoned monster.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: He isn't a very strong Level 7 monster but gets to come out quickly when you Tribute Summon and adapts the other monster's Level, Attribute and Type.
REDU-EN036
Atlantean Attack Squad
WATER / Sea Serpent / Level 3 / ATK 1400 / DEF 0
This card gains 800 ATK while you control a face-up Fish, Sea Serpent, or Aqua-Type monster other than this card.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Not much of an attack squad if you rely on your own kind to give you a boost but even with all his friends, he gets no more than 800 ATK.
REDU-EN035
Block Golem
EARTH / Rock / Level 3 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1500
If all the monsters in your Graveyard are EARTH: You can Tribute this card to target 2 Level 4 or lower Rock-Type monsters in your Graveyard, except "Block Golem"; Special Summon those targets, but their effects that activate on the field cannot be activated this turn.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: You get back any Level 2 Level 4 or less Rock-Type monsters but they can't use any effects that activate on the field and you need a Graveyard of Rock-Type monsters.
REDU-EN034
Dust Knight
EARTH / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1200
FLIP: Send 1 EARTH monster from your Deck to the Graveyard.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Dump any EARTH monster you like for resurrection later but that means your opponent could revive it too.
REDU-EN033*
Silver Sentinel
EARTH / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1300
You can Set this card from your hand to your Spell & Trap Card Zone as a Spell Card. During the End Phase of the turn this Set card in your Spell & Trap Card Zone was destroyed by an opponent's card effect and sent to the Graveyard: Target 1 card your opponent controls (if possible); Special Summon this card from the Graveyard, and if you do, destroy that target (if any).
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: You can bait your opponent with their MST or Night Beam but it's a pretty slow effect and will likely only go off once or twice per duel.
REDU-EN032
Little Trooper
EARTH / Warrior / Level 1 / ATK 900 / DEF 500
If this card is destroyed by battle: You can Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower Warrior-Type monster from your Deck in face-down Defense Position.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: What a trooper. He dies in the line of duty but it's all for nothing as his replacement is just as weak.
RDU-EN031
Uniflora, Mystical Beast of the Forest
EARTH / Beast / Level 1 / ATK 700 / DEF 500
If all the monsters in your Graveyard are Beast-Type: You can Tribute this card; Special Summon 1 Beast-Type monster from your hand or Graveyard, except "Uniflora, Mystical Beast of the Forest", but it cannot attack this turn.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: You can trade him in for a stronger Beast-Type monster but it's unable to strike right away and you need a Graveyard of Beast-Type monsters.
REDU-EN030
Geargiarmor
EARTH / Machine / Level 4 / ATK 1100 / DEF 1900
Once per turn: You can change this card to face-down Defense Position. When this card is flipped face-up: You can add 1 "Geargia" monster from your Deck to your hand, except "Geargiarmor".
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: He's learned from the monsters from The Lost Millennium and Pharaonic Guardian with his flip-to-face-down ability but he hasn't learned any good effects for when flipped face up.
REDU-EN029
Geargiarsenal
EARTH / Machine / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 500
This card gains 200 ATK for each face-up "Geargia" monster you control. You can Tribute this card; Special Summon 1 "Geargia" monster from your Deck, except "Geargiarsenal", in face-up Defense Position.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: He'll be at most 2500 ATK if you have a Geargia monster in each Monster Card Zone and can swap itself out for another Geargia monster in your deck but I have yet to see a good one in its archtype.
REDU-EN028
Geargiaccelerator
EARTH / Machine / Level 4 / ATK 1400 / DEF 800
If you control a face-up "Geargia" monster, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand) in face-up Defense Position. When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard: You can target 1 "Geargia" monster in your Graveyard, except "Geargiaccelerator"; add that target to your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: It comes with a Blackwing-style effect and lets you retrieve one of its fallen friends from the Grave when sent from the field to the Grave but it's not enough for a good rating.
REDU-EN027
Gearigiano Mk-II
EARTH / Machine / Level 3 / ATK 1000 / DEF 500
When this card is Normal or Flip Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 "Geargia" monster from your hand or Graveyard in face-up Defense Position.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: You're welcome to bring out any Geargiano monster in your hand or Grave but be prepared for your opponent to hit you hard next turn.
REDU-EN026*
Madolche Puddingcess
EARTH / Fairy / Level 5 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1000
When this card you control is destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Shuffle this card into your Deck. While you have no monsters in your Graveyard, this card gains 800 ATK and DEF. After damage calculation, when this card battles an opponent's monster: You can target 1 card your opponent controls; destroy that target.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: You might call her the "boss" monster of the archetype but let's face it, that's a terrible boss monster if true, not to mention nowhere near worth being Ultra Rare.
REDU-EN025
Madolche Butlerusk
EARTH / Spellcaster / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 800
When this card you control is destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Shuffle this card into your Deck. When this card is Normal Summoned: You can add 1 Field Spell Card from your Deck to your hand. There must be another face-up "Madolche" monster on the field to activate and to resolve this effect.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: You're not restricted to a Madolche Field Spell but you do need another Madolche monster out to even obtain that Field Spell his way and that's if you Normal Summon him.
REDU-EN024
Madolche Magileine
EARTH / Spellcaster / Level 4 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1200
When this card you control is destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Shuffle this card into your Deck. When this card is Normal or Flip Summoned: You can add 1 "Madolche" monster from your Deck to your hand.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Just by performing a Normal or Flip Summon with her grants you any Madolche monster in your Deck but much like Mewfeuille, she needs all the help she can get to survive afterwards.
REDU-EN023
Madolche Chouxvalier
EARTH / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1700 / DEF 1300
When this card you control is destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Shuffle this card into your Deck. Your opponent cannot target face-up "Madolche" monsters for attacks, except "Madolche Chouxvalier".
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: He protects your other Madolche monsters and thus far is the strongest of the archtype but that's about it.
REDU-EN022
Madolche Baaple
EARTH / Beast / Level 3 / ATK 0 / DEF 1800
When this card you control is destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Shuffle this card into your Deck. Once per turn: You can target 1 face-up Attack Position "Madolche" monster you control and 1 face-up Attack Position monster your opponent controls; if both monsters are still on the field, change them to face-up Defense Position, and if you do, the ones changed by this effect cannot have their battle positions changed until the end of your opponent's next turn.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: She barely can hold her own in Defense Mode but can thankfully get there with her own effect but if the opponent's monster leaves, she and your Life Points are at risk.
REDU-EN021
Madolche Mewfeuille
EARTH / Beast / Level 3 / ATK 300 / DEF 500
When this card you control is destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Shuffle this card into your Deck. When this card is Normal Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 "Madolche" monster from your hand.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: So begins the food archetype. The one above offers what her friends have and can bring out one of her friends when Normal Summoned but with those stats, you need another summoning in mind.
REDU-EN020
High Priestess of Prophecy
LIGHT / Spellcaster / Level 7 / ATK 2500 / DEF 2100
You can reveal 3 "Spellbook" Spell Cards in your hand; Special Summon this card from your hand. Once per turn: You can banish 1 "Spellbook" Spell Card from your hand or Graveyard to target 1 card on the field; destroy that target.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: She has no restriction on how many copies of herself can be in play and you don't lose the Spellbooks for bringing her out her way but you do for her effect and her stats aren't very good.
