Return of the Duelist Review 7 French Madolce

Alright now that DN is updated I can rejoice in the simpler pleasures of life once again. I'm working on a ton of new decks for next month and I can more accurately review things now yay. Anyway Rock-Stun got a major boost yay Block Golem makes the deck terrifying in late game and then we have Grandsoil making their late game explosively dangerous. Rock Bombarding Area is really good in conjunction with Koa'ki Meiru Guardian against Hieratics as Su cannot destroy the Area or backrow without getting negated... Atums cannot activate without getting negated... just so evil... made even more so by being unable to destroy the monster in question. Wanchan!? can search Unifolia and Kinka-Byou so I built a Fabled Beastdown deck... Chawa, Cerburel, Ganashia, Unifolia, Kinka-Byou, Big-Tusked Mammoth, Three Thousand Needles... so nasty when it works... so much advantage Kinka can loop my Unifolia to revive Big-Tusked or Needles forever. Ganashia+any of my Fableds make Thunder Unicorn or Kudabe/Unicore. Imagine a forever revivable Unicore lol oh you killed it good troll... Voltic Bicorn is made easy with Big-Tusked and Cerberel.... Bicorn everytime it dies can be revived by Unifolia Kinka comboes for mill forever trollol. Anyway onto the reviews yay!!!
FIRST CARD:
Madolce Chateau
Field Spell Card
When you activate this card, if there are "Madolce" Monster in your Graveyard, return all those monster to your deck. While this card is on the field, "Madolce" Monster gain 500 ATK and DEF. Also, if a monster in your Graveyard would be returned to the deck by the effect of a "Madolce" Monster, you can return it to your hand instead of the deck.

REVIEW: Amazingly good Field Spell... essentially it makes all your Madolce beaters or walls depending on their predominant stat. Then it also resets your graveyard and makes Puddincess live once again. And finally you can have Monsters literally forever... as everytime one dies by your opponents hand it will return to yours to be played again. This card is searchable best by Terraforming but Butlerusk still is ran simply because he's 2000 with the Field Spell and can occasionally get his effect off for a plus to grab this or any other field you may be teching like Necrovalley.

This card makes all your madolce plays extremely safe because now if your opponent tries to destroy your Madolce you will always plus from the exchange. Pair this with Madolce Puddingcess and Mille-Feuilla to have a nearly broken combo on board every turn. By the way the art is so cute and the Mansion is beautiful... Then just look at Majoleines expression it is clear she is going to crash something at teatime.

NEXT CARD:
Wan-Chan!?
Normal Spell Card
Activate only if you control a Level 1 Monster. Add 1 Level 1 Monster from your Deck to your hand. During this turn, if you do not Normal Summon the monster added to your hand by this effect or a card with the same name, you take 2000 Damage during the End Phase.

REVIEW: Alright the effect may be incorrect I don't know... it's either if you summon it you take 2000 or if you don't summon it you take 2000... either way this card is really really good and can be used in a variety of decks. Most commonly Chaos Piper if it says "if you Normal..." then Chaos Piper just got so much better... if it says "if you don't Normal" then Chaos Piper still got better but will run less than 3 lol... Turn 1 Mystic Piper... Wan-Chan?! to grab Kinka-Byou... tribute the Piper draw 1... next turn you now have a Kinka-Byou... Not bad if I say so myself. This also can search Unifolia, Fabled Chawa, Battle Fader (Prime target), Effect Veiler, any Meklord, Celfon, for your Marron deck you can grab Outstanding Dog Marron lol which i'm still confused how the boy lost it... was it banished or something? I mean considering if it hits the grave it goes back to deck... Well that was Duel Monsters 1000+ years ago fast forward to now and we have Mad Dog of Darkness and Skull Dog Marron and eventually they made in respect to Marron's steadfast loyalty Mecha Dog Marron but that explodes upon touch and still cannot be made to the standards of Outstanding Dog Marron.

NEXT CARD:
Generation Force
Spell Card
Activate only if you control an Xyz Monster. Add 1 "Xyz"-Card from your Deck to your hand.

REVIEW: um yeah really Konami... was this necessary? I mean yay we can now search Xyz Territory and Xyz Gift. But why the controlling Xyz Monster restriction like seriously guys we don't need restrictions on bad cards... Xyz Reborn is cool but Xyz Soul and Xyz Unit make this really useful considering how bad it is... I guess I must make a Utopia deck that exclusively summons Utopia and Utopia Ray with all the bells and whistles lol








NEXT CARD:
Rockthrow Area
Field Spell Card
Once per turn, if a Monster you control would be destroyed by battle, you can send 1 Rock-Type Monster from your Deck to your Graveyard instead.

REVIEW: Really really good card for Rock-Stun as now suddenly your Pachycephalo or Guardian can survive an extra attack while simultaneously setting up your grave for any manner of things. This card is really useful and I'm happy they made this for Rocks. but of course theres nothing much to say here for such a simple card.









NEXT CARD:
Extreme Coldness
Quick-Play Spell Card
During this turn, you cannot activate, set or use the effects of Magic and Trap Cards.

REVIEW... skips this one... like seriously What The Fuck Konmai?!?!? do you not give any fucks at all about why you design this shit especially as the Normal Rare (Essentially short print)... Well anyway... skipping next trap cards yay












NEXT CARD:
Attack Invulnerability
Trap Card
Activate only during the Battle Phase by selecting 1 of the following effects: ● Activate by selecting 1 Monster on the field. During this Battle Phase, that selected monster cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. ● During this Battle Phase, Battle Damage you take becomes 0.

REVIEW: really nice and an extra 3 turns of survival in Final Countdown and Stallexodia. Well it also gives a temporary safe zone to any monster for the Battle Phase. Or can be a Waboku that doesn't protect your monsters for one Battle Phase all in all a well balanced and interesting card.








Sigh out of the mood already... I'll just do the last 14 Trap cards tomorrow because I'm just tired right now like can't keep eyes open..

    1. Um excuse me sir. This is the Eighth Series of Booster Packs... and the show is on its Fifth Series if you include the original. Also by technicality the Manga is far past it's Fifth Series. Also kind sir Gene's have nothing to do with inanimate objects. If you personally dislike the direction you believe this game is going may I suggest picking up Cardfight Vanguard or Magic: The Gathering or Naruto or Pokemon or World of Warcraft TCG or even Duel Masters/Battle Spirits.

  2. Do you know of any way to get any of the "Madolce" cards (monsters, traps, spells, etc.)

    Also are they really rare ? And do you think they might be released in English any time soon ?

    1. They are not really rare none of them are above Super Rare last I checked. They are in the set after Galatic Overlord so in about 2-3 months they will be released in English.
