Meh
And the one card I can’t be even slightly positive on. The only way it’d be worth running if it was on your opponent summoning a monster, even then the staples are still probably better.
At this point I don’t think any archetypal trap is gonna be good in Rush
Berry fresh traps:continue
This is a common so expect it to be mediocre.
There were many cases of Archetype-centric Trap Cards being used by their own Decks: Rush’s Gaia, Celeb Rose, Dragonic, Psychic, the recent Berry Fresh, etc.
The problem with those Archetype Trap Cards is this: there are no cards in those Decks that allow you to reuse those Trap Cards (i.e. Set or Add to Hand from GY)
You would only use Archetype-centric Trap Cards if those Trap Cards are powerful or have unfair effects.
And, because there is no such thing in Rush Duels as adding “Insert Archetype Name” Spell/Trap from your GY to Hand, it makes those Trap Cards useless (outside of Trap Card’s Staples ending up being better by not having many Restrictions)
Too little too late. Maybe if this card came out 2 years ago it would have been decent but this has long been out powered.
We seriously need a pack just to bring the Rush exclusive Legacy Support to the mothership.
I would expect that to only happen if Konami and Shueisha decide if Rush isn’t financially viable, to be honest.
They are not giving cydra a saryuja in tcg lmao
For Machine Deck, it seems fine: I mean, you can use it in any Deck (and it can destroy Backrow)
The bad thing is that we’re back to the Trap Card’s Staples issue: Why use this Trap Card if I can use Staples?
Hence why I feel that they should have limited some Trap Card’s Staples to make way for a variety of Trap Cards.
People focus too much on it being AG card while in fact it’s generic machine support, I think?
It’s… okay in machine-type decks and probably will get better with time. Especially Gadgets may be quite good with it, depending on how their effects will actually work in Rush Duels – in MD they obviously always appreciated being shuffled back into deck but their MD effects cannot really exist in RD so it depends how they gonna change them.
Stop wasting ink on garbage rush duel cards. Really don’t like konami focusing on rush and neglecting the real game. The R and D department is so screwed up and we keep getting tier 0 archtypes. I think it partially has to do with half of all efforts going toward rush duels.
