300 x 3 = 900 + 1600 = 2100 ATK. Which isn’t a big deal since most level 5 or 6 on average have higher ATK. Only reason you’d run this card is for it latter effect of stealing immunity. However, there just aren’t enough cards in rush duel that actually steal opponents monsters.
No, wait 2500, sorry typo. Even then, still mid.
It’s a level 4 1900 attacker that easily can become an 2200-2500 attacker. Funnily enough it also counts opponent’s monsters so in mirror match it can go up to 3400.
It will not see play because there are better cards for that Legend monster slot, but the ATK is it’s main thing, I don’t think that Rush Duels had enough monster stealing effects for that imminity to be relevant.
It says your monsters, it wouldn’t gain ATK based on your opponent’s Plants.
Yep, that’s Botanical Lion alright. That’s the guy.
Botanical Lion got a slight nerf in that its control immunity is only during the Main Phase.
This means cards that switch control during the Draw and Battle Phase such as Invitation can still work.
There’s specific support for Vorse Raider/Blood Vorse, right? Right!?
