Return of the Duelist Full Set Review 4

Yessir it is time for the fourth installment of reviews today we are going to go over the rest of the non-Xyz monster line-up of the set. Uniforia until Goblin Marauding Squad. Without further ado I must say... I have now beaten the Hanako Route's Good Ending... and am working on Shizune's Route hoping for the Good Ending without using outside help. Back on topic read more for the reviews of some of the most interesting monsters of all time.
FIRST CARD:
Uniforia, Sacred Beast of the Forest
EARTH
Level 1
Beast/Effect
If there are only Beast-Type Monster in your Graveyard, you can activate this effect by Releasing this card. Special Summon 1 Beast-Type Monster except "Uniforia, Sacred Beast of the Forest" from your hand or Graveyard. The monster Special Summoned by this effect cannot attack during this turn.
700/500

REVIEW: Well another reason Rescue Cat can never come back... as stated by a pojo member... Cat>2x Uniforia>Uniforia tributes for Cat>Cat tributes for Uniforia and any other 3 or lower Beast> Uniforia Tributes for Cat>Cat tributes for two 3 or lower beasts> Uniforia Tributes for Cat>Cat tributes for two 3 or lower beasts... So traditional gets a new friend but only if there are only beasts in grave. Uniforia's main drawback isn't really important except when it summons something like Earthbound God Cusillo. Lock cat can summon this monster from graveyard but its effect would be negated... meaning you can tribute it but you'd get no effect killing a way to abuse this card. Kinka-Byou on the other hand can revive this card as much as it wants... Kinka to revive... tribute for a beater... Creature Swap chuckle. A great use for this card is in Sphinxes... tribute for Andro Sphinx from hand trollol. This cards main falling is that it suffers from lack of good targets... Beasts don't have much in the way of power cards that benefit from this card. I mean one can cheat out a Big Tusk Mammoth or a Behemoth King of all Animals but I mean there just isn't much one can really get with this card in a Beast only deck. This card would be the best monster for beasts if and only if it had actual targets to get. Still in a Beast deck I'd run 2-3 of this card just because its heavily searchable and recurrable.

NEXT CARD:
Little Trooper
EARTH
Level 1
Warrior/Effect
If this card is destroyed by battle, you can Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower Warrior-Type Monster from your deck in face-down Defense Position.
900/500

REVIEW: Simple a searchable Apprentice Magician for Warriors... and like Apprentice Magician it can grab itself meaning just setting this monster gives you 4 attacks you can survive through and can potentially thin your deck by 4 monsters. Now if this card said face-up Defense Position... Hero Kids anyone?!?? but alas it doesn't but that doesn't mean it has no uses. Grab a Doppelwarrior... Drop Junk Synchron bring back Trooper... Sync for Junk Warrior... 900+400+400+4000... and when trooper dies again you get its effect because Junk won't negate an effect that activates in the graveyard... if you played The A. Forces beforehand suddenly you are swinging with 1700 + 1200 + 1200 + 6400... that without any further adding is GG... And did I mention all but The A. Forces was searchable. It also is a way to tutor Infernity Randomizer to the field or even Cross Porter can be tutored with this card. So far it doesn't have too many targets but just being an Earth Warrior makes it quite good. It's also Level 1 which gives it some utility for Synchro Summons. I really like this card and I hope we get some better weenie warriors to make it great. Otherwise its a Reinforce Truth with absolutely no drawback and a slightly wider range of targets all bundled into a monster that provides extra defenses.

NEXT CARD:
Snow Sniper
EARTH
Level 4
Warrior/Effect
You can Set this card from your hand to your Magic & Trap Cards Zone treated as Magic Card. During the End Phase this card that was set to your Magic & Trap Cards Zone was destroyed by an opponent's card effect and sent to the Graveyard, Special Summon this card from the Graveyard, and select 1 card your opponent controls and destroy it.
1500/1300

REVIEW: Toy Magician for Warriors with a built free Raigeki Break. Amazing Amazing Amazing troll troll troll... I mean honestly... Reinforcement of the Army grab him... set a Warning while they have a field... will they MST? I doubt it lol. a MST becomes a minus 2 and a Level 4 monster to deal with it even survives End Phase MSTs... I'd happily run  these in Geargia just to put out more annoyances... BTW A Geargia deck running the Geargia set of 3 of all except Geargiano... (1 of in that build), 2 Birdman (of course), 3 Card Car D (of course), 3 Veiler (Yep) it beat out Inzektors and won the 93 man tourney. Back to the actual card.... I love this card so much... Set it a Starlight Road and a Warning... they can't Heavy they have to blind MST and hope to hit Warning... An opponent that sees you running this will most likely take out their Extra MST's meaning you throw in your Decrees and troll more. This cards art is amazing and he wields a legitimate Sniper Rifle and is in the snow probably doing some boss Russian shit lol.

NEXT CARD: (Armageddon Knight before he became DARK)
Knight of the Sandcloud
EARTH
Level 4
Warrior/Effect
Flip: Send 1 EARTH Monster from your Deck to the Graveyard.
1400/1200

REVIEW: Art is amazing... Like OMG beastlyness. Effect is meh honestly... mill 1 EARTH for the cost of a Flip Effect. I mean what he can help set up a Gogogo Giant Play or something... His effect should have been like Armaggedon Knight then he'd be really good. He can Dump King of Beasts directly to the graveyard. He can dump Rescue Rabbit for Uniforia to grab but he's Warrior so hard to pull off... He can drop Mezuki from deck to grave... He can drop Rocks for Block Golem. This card would be great if only... sigh oh well I'll still collect them lol. Inb4 TCG Exclusive Retrained Warrior Dai Grepher.


NEXT CARD:
Block Golem
EARTH
Level 3
Rock/Effect
If there are only EARTH Monster in your Graveyard, you can activate this effect by Releasing this card. Select 2 Level 4 or lower Rock-Type Monster in your Graveyard other than "Block Golem" and Special Summon them to your field in face-up Defense Position. During this turn, Monsters Special Summoned by this effect cannot activate effects that activate on the field.
1000/1500

REVIEW: Rescue Cat for graveyard Rock-Type Monsters. Grab some Koa'ki Meiru and just sit on em for the turn and your opponent on their turn will still be able to be negated... Grab a Gogogo Golem pair and Overlay... This card must only have EARTH monsters in grave so try to restrict yourself to Earth Xyz like Fairy King Alverd. I'd run this in Rock Stun in a heart beat though. I really like this card and I bet I'll be able to break it soon once I can play with it. I'm looking forward to Tele-Earth.

NEXT CARD:
Assaulter of the Sea Emperor
WATER
Level 3
Sea-Serpent/Effect
If you control a Fish-Type, Sea-Serpent-Type or Aqua-Type Monster other than this card, this card gains 800 ATK.
1400/0

REVIEW: Diva>This makes you a 2200 beater... Also being Level 3 has its perks... This is also an Atlantean card like Atlantean Pikeman so I can expect some sorta wierd support in the next structure deck. regardless a 2200 beater is amazing at level 3... Spinned Gillman doesn't even get that high but boost everyone else so meh... I'm just hoping that this card becomes useful outside of Salvage and 2200 beating which isn't much when it must be on field with something else to keep that boost.



NEXT CARD:
Illusion Snatch
DARK
Level 7
Fiend/Effect
When you successfully Advance Summon a Monster, you can Special Summon this card from your hand. If this card is Special Summoned by this effect, it becomes of the same Type, Attribute and Level as the Advanced Summoned Monster.
2400/1000

REVIEW: Nice card and quite nice art. Drop Caius banish drop this... swing for 4800 overlay for 6... Drop Delg.. banish 2 drop this... Overlay for Magi Magi Magician Gal... sac for Mind on Air drop this Magi Magi Magician Gal... sac for DMG... Magi Magi Magician Gal... I think i'm catching on now trollol. I can see it now... DMG Special Illusion Snatch... Sages Stone for Dark Magician... Overlay for Magi Magi... muhahahahahahaha... So much fun to be had in yugioh... best way though... Tribute for Metaion... Illusion Snatch make Gustaph MAX!!! I like this card. I'm clearly not giving a real review of this card because its uses are spelled out in its text... it gives Monarchs a new toy and a way to Xyz Summon easily thats all...

NEXT CARD:
Earth Spirit Grand Soil
EARTH
Level 8
Beast-Warrior/Effect
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except when there are exactly 5 EARTH Monster in your Graveyard. When this card is successfully Special Summoned, you can select 1 Monster in either player's Graveyard and Special Summon it. If this card is removed from the field, you must skip your next turn's Battle Phase.
2800/2200

REVIEW:  Art is badass... Exactly 5 earths... So a Dark Creator for Earth monsters... lovely... if it dies I skip my NEXT TURNS BATTLE PHASE!!!... Being Overlayed doesn't skip my Battle Phase huzzah... Being destroyed still lets me swing in for the turn safely huzzah... hmm you thinking what I'm thinking... Drop this grab back Ironhammer... Inferno Reckless Summon for 3 Ironhammer... Shield and Sword... 3500+3500+3500+2200 gg... But this cards strength lies in grabbing anyones monsters. You summon this card you get to monster reborn anything... Amazing Amazing Amazing... I would run this even in Geargia just because I can. I'd run it in Gadgets because I can... I'd run it in anything Earth based even Rock-Stun or Koa'ki Meiru Beats (The beast warrior one...) I'd run this in Karakuri in 3's lol. halfway through the combo drop some of these lovely... I really like this card and my gosh I want to summon it so bad.

NEXT CARD:
Three Thousand Needles
EARTH
Level 8
Beast/Effect
If this card in Defense Position is attacked, and if the DEF of this card is higher than the ATK of the opponent's attacking Monster, destroy that monster at the end of the Damage Step.
3000/1800

REVIEW: This card absolutely is nostalgia in a box... anyone remember Thousand Needles... Anyone remember Two Thousand Needles... well now here's Three Thousand Needles... One of the strongest Beast Monsters in the game... Only weaker than Master of Oz and Thenian the Great Sphinx... Well we now have our Unifolia target. Note like the other Thousand Needles its effect is just terrible lol... I mean yay reverse piercing and destruction is cool but eh. 1800 wall... terrible now... if it was a 3000/3000 this card would be amazing... lol... Rank 8 Xyz.

FINAL CARD
Goblin Marauder Squad
EARTH
Level 4
Warrior/Effect
When this card declares an attack, your opponent cannot activate the effects of Magic, Trap or Effect Monster cards. If this card attacks, it is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Battle Phase, and its Position cannot be changed until the end of your next turn
1900/0

REVIEW: Useless card... swing ok you can't stop the swing... cool... but meh then it goes to defense... which honestly wasn't needed at all... sigh Konami why do you troll us so hard... I can't even review this last card it just infuriates me.





Well tomorrow I'll review all the Xyz monster from REDU thanks for viewing I'll see you all tomorrow.
