One of Yugipedia's anime and manga experts. I usually cover merchandise and TCG set spoilers. I enjoy all the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime and have a passion for anything dinosaur-related.
I hope we can get more direct Sky Savior support someday. That theme is pretty cool, in my opinion.
For one thing, I’d love Fusions for both the “lesser” Sky Savior Knights.

Skysaviors are desperately needed more support from them, they have solid cards to worked with especially with Gakuto’s support on the horizon. The card I’m interested is Altierra, this Fusion monster is just waited to get abused by it once the set come out.

I think Altierra is the reason why they don’t release more Skysaviors support: that card was made with an era in mind where everyone would use Fusion as a Spell Card. However, currently, with so many Custom Fusion Spell Cards, Altierra has become a direct Counter to the entire Fusion Decks (which is experiencing its best moment thanks to Sevens Wonder Fusion)
And let’s not forget Yamiterasu the Divine Ruler, that Fusion Monster has been worthy of suspicion for years but there was no way to bring it to the field consistently. Now, Ruler Decks have the tools to do it and it will be a pain to deal with unless your Deck is a Maximum Deck.

There is something to be said about Skysaviors receiving support in the future and I would be very surprised if a Skysavior card doesn’t appear in “Red Reboot of Darkness” or “High Grade Collection” when everything indicates that there is something from Skysavior: especially with all the reprints of Skysaviors cards recently.
Honestly, Skysaviors support needs to be carefully created to prevent it from breaking completely. However, I would have preferred support for Blaze Fiend, the OG of the Next Generation of Maximum.
PS: I wouldn’t be surprised if “Altierra the Skysavior Transience” is a UR (it’s R in the actual format) and is limited to 3 along with “Yamiterasu the Divine Ruler” when they hit Duel Links.

Devil’s advocate here but reprints for a theme do not necessarily mean new cards later.
Altierra was reprinted six months ago because it was a high value card at the time, but that didn’t translate to new Skysavior cards after the first wave.
Soleil is compatible with Divine Transformation and Watch is generic enough that Gakuto’s theme can also use it.

Only one card left in the pack (a Luke Monster or Spell) and it will probably be revealed tonight if not later next week.
