That lion will make a fine steed for the Star Seraph Inquisition.
I guess Ancient Forest has been considered obsolete. Shame 😔. The card really needs a reprint badly in the TCG. The card like a 30 dollars online.
The Field Spell is anti-Links
It’s effect is literally the polar opposite of Ancient Forest.
Surprised they didn’t archetype her Synchros. Maybe next time around.
What do you mean? This literally locks you to synchros??
Pretty sure Ancient Pixie Dragon doesn’t mention Ancient Fairy Dragon.
Wtf is the last effect on that Continuous Trap… Once per chain Forbidden Droplet with no pre-requisite? Wow.
Nevermind, I just re-read the first line of text. Still pretty great.
You have to have at least 1 AFD or monster that mentions it to use that effect.
If this gets a wave 2, I hope Sunlight Unicorn gets a retrain 🙏
And Sunny Pixie.
Same for both. I’d also like a lower-Level Synchro for them, too.
These cards are pretty cute but aside from AFD and to a limited extent the Field Spell as a floodgate they won’t see much play.
Is a shame that Sunlight Unicorn didn’t got it’s retrain but Finally our Girl had her Upgrade Dragon
Poor Luna always getting the extra treatment, she’s the only one who’s not a cover for a pack or SD
Is it me, or could some of these cards have some synergy with light fairy decks like melodious?
Life Dragon is certainly splashable in many decks. Not sure for Melodious specifically
Ruka fever is sweeping the world! Normally an article like this would use a 5d’s screenshot or gif instead of immediately spoiling the art so I could slowly savor scrolling down but whatever. Fairy Archer benefits but a few other members of the crew aren’t LIGHT, alas. Kuribon still not treated as a “Kuriboh” monsters, tsk. Very strange that Blood Rose Dragon and Black-Winged Assault Dragon have a perk involving their base forms but not Power Tool Braver Dragon and Ancient Fairy Life Dragon. Stop treating the twins as second-class signers! Not surprised to see a focus on Ancient Forest’s thing given the lack of material to work with, mainly Ruka’s one and ONLY 1v1 duel that was still interrupted in a way. Life gain/burn focus next time? Monsters don’t have an “endurance” stat so the most support def can have is the SHS treatment it seems.
If we could have nice things the next wave would be 5 or more cards to make up for lost time and a new Ruka-focused OVA of course.
I wonder if they’ll make a card based on the de-aged Dark Sage/Torunka who helped Ruka defeat Zeman and free the Spirits.
On that note, and I know this is a pipe dream, but imagine if they also did retrains of monsters who appeared in 5D’s spirit world in some way, be it physically or as stone tablets in Zeman’s castle.
My God…the size that booties will grow too with that trap.
That’s… interesting.
Not sure how good it is, but they did a decent attempt at connecting the mish-mash of Ruka’s cards into somewhat coherent strategy. And because it’s a rather curious tri-type support there’s a lot to be tested and experiment with, too!
This is the OCG giving a Christmas present to Josh.
And with that all six Signer Dragons finally have an evolution (though I suppose Braver Dragon is more of a sidegrade).
If they connect this to dark Sage that means he’s now connected to Dark Magician support which would change this entire deck to being a lot more valuable but also there’s one other thing that could do that would be very impressive and that would be give her a level 10 which mentions pixie dragon.
Or connect kariboh to this art type because by doing so you now have two separate toolboxes she can go into
I wonder if this means that they’ll print Double Ripple since the Duel Links version of that card mentions Ancient Fairy Dragon and would therefore be searchable off of new Regulus.
