Thunder Cavalry Triggerdrago… That’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.
I don’t know how good it is to get Pierce for free on a Spell Card: there’s a lot of competition for Spell Card’s slots in a Deck.
A card that should have been released at the beginning of the Go Rush era
This card is decent. Grants generic milling, an ATK boost, and piercing to any Deck with an optional effect to revive a decent 2500 ATK beater if neither player has cards in their hand, though that requires playing Triggetdrago (which you probably won’t not even in a Thunder Deck since deck space is tight and Triggerdrago did not age all too well).
I like how the requirement and effect are slightly improved versions of Triggerdrago, who required you to mill 1 to grant it 300 ATK and then gets piercing for the turn if your opponent doesn’t have cards in the hand. If you summon Triggerdrago you can even meet its pierce condition getting two millers / piercers for the price of one.
Cool, thunder support.
