Duelist revolution

I think everyone of you has done their reviews on the set already, and I'm the last. Oh well, hoping to introduce something different.

The hype now is Pot of Greed and Humility. What the hell man. This card is wtfbbq good. I cant believe they introduced this. It only seems real in MTG and Pokemon. if you though Upstart Goblin was cool since its basically running 37 cards in ur deck, this is similar but 1000 times better and is Upstart on crack.

Similar to Angel's Gift.

G-ray noted that Raio-Oh will kill this and the downside is it reveals what you choose to your opponent. For one, I have to disagree. Rai-Ou usually doesn't last one the field very long, if you've noticed... My rai-ou stays on the field 3 turns max and that's cost i main 1000000 traps and monster destructions and Honests too.

Revealing it doesn't exactly do much of a problem. Sure it shows your strategy. But, by only one card. Its so good in the fact that that card that you choose, you will need it, and most likely play it soon.

OR, it could be a very important card that is vital for you to seal the duel. I think its a pretty worth it card. Somemore, if you reveal 2 or 3 awesome cards, its pretty hard for your opponent to predict what you'll take. Oh well. Utility over Practicality.

It may not seem super awesome at first, but in playing its probably 1000x better (eg: Starlight road)

A few posts ago, I commented on AMAZONESS. I think its a good archetype and that continuous spell and the field magic is broken. Its some killer toolbox, seriously. self-replacing Amazoness? Wicked. Self replacing Amazoness Swords Woman and Paladin? WOW. All plus 1k attack? WOW.

Treacherous Gofer can be cool, as its a +2 in certain situations. Anyway, I dont think its any good, as its not a guarantee.

Get your playsets of Double Cyclone now!

This set was supposed to hype Synchro Fusions. ONLY TWO??? Where the hell is the hype?

Scrap archetype spells are good.

Landol's Luminous Moss: Your Skill Drain in Cold Wave form, Nice.

Chain Whirlwind is interesting.

Lastly, isn';t there a trap in TCG that lets you destroy a synchro monster and draw 1 or 2 cards? Something like that? Wasn't it broken? How come its not in the TCG meta leh?

Ok this is next, Paradox Fusion is wtfbbq strong for heroes. Remove zero, negate spell and trap card, destroy all monsters= WOW. 2 turns later, my zero returns...

Don't compare Pot of Greederosity to Angel's Gift. The latter can give you up to 3 cards that you needed in your current situation and speed you up by discarding any 2 cards from your hand. Pot of Greederosity gives you up to 1 card that you needed and slows you down by disallowing Special Summons for a turn. It also doesn't get rid of your dead cards.

Still awesome, though, and not killed by Raiou because it's a card that you don't have to play immediately. In fact, it can be better to play it later in cases.

Treacherous Gofer is cool as a replacement of only 1 of your Monarchs if you play Trap Dustshoot.

Reread Landlulz Luminous Moss and see how horrid it is.

Chain Whirlwind is too unplayable. You can't chain it to it's own destruction.

The card you meant is Greed Grado and it lets you draw 2 cards only IF you destroyed a Synchro monster this turn. In the main, you're not sure if your opponent even plays Synchros. In the side, you'll want cards to thwart your opponent, not to enforce yourself.
