[0:10:29] Roaming Shay Obsidian

  • Raidraptor – Blade Burner Falcon: This first effect is some comeback anime style effect that you should really expect to happen much. The second ability is a little better, like Infinitrack Earth Slicer, but worse as it happens during the battle phase after destroying a monster. But most of the time this will just have 1000 attack for a Rank 4 Xyz, which makes this not great. It is reliant on the first effect.
  • Raidraptor – Vanishing Lanius: This type of card is generally core for an archetype. Normal or special summon to special summon a monster in-hand. This has some Rank 4 synergy which is nice as well.

[0:13:57] Wave Duel Scramble

  • Psychic Blade: OTK equip card plain and simple. It maxes out at 2000 in Duel Links, but has more power than any equip we’ve had so far. Like any equip, this is limited by any removal, or even the monster being flipped face down. But if you’re able to clear everything for game, this is worth using for whatever OTK strategy you come up with.
  • Fairy Wind: This only destroys face up spells/traps, which limits it to field spells and continuous stuff. This also limits how much burn this inflicts, so not very useful for removal or burn.

[0:17:20] Ranked Duels

  • Otoshidamashi: Um okay I guess? How you’ll use this card I would never know, as this isn’t even usable for Level 2 Beast synergy. The tokens will gain a level and grow stats continually so as long as this is on the field.
