Power of Duelist - First Infos

I'm very much liking the looks of a Vehicroid Deck now.

Also, Dinosaurs! Fan-smeggin'-tastic! Finally, some half-decent cards for an underrated Deck type. I hope to see some good Dino Decks floating around. Perhaps a Dino/Alien hybrid, too, given that those Aliens are Reptiles.

It almost balances out the other series-based rubbish in there. Almost.
 
Dinosaur-Type still sucks right now though which is a darn shame. If the OCG would stop giving us conflicting info on that Dinosaur Structure that is a Kenzan focused Deck we have word whether it is just 3 new cards or now 8 instead of the previous 6 that was supposed to be new. Dinosaurs will have some force when Jurassic World is released. They only need that 1 card. That and perhaps Dino Stamp being their Spell and Trap removal. But they need Jurassic World badly and then they will have squared off as a threat.
 
If they are that dependent upon 1 card to get better, then they wont get better. Any focus on removing that one key card will essentially kill the deck. But I do like that they finally have their own 1900 beatstick.

I guess I am the only one who is excited about the new Alien theme, huh? I suppose it must be because of the similarities between their effects and Fiends. I am so wanting to try a deck with Alien Mother, Alien Gray, Brainwash Ray, and Ectoplasmer. Totally fun times ahead for the sQuidster :)
 
I would have liked to see the Dinosaur beatstick be 1950 ATK. See how that changes people's minds.


Is it just me, or are the card rarities for this set completely wrong? Well, only for the Neospacians, the first few D-Heroes and the E-Hero Neos fusions. They're backwards, entirely so. The Dinosaurs and the Aliens are fine, as are the Spells and Traps, but those?

Yes, I know it's only like that to force the kiddies to spend so much more money buying so many more packs trying desperately to complete their series character card collections, but in terms of effects they're hideously wrong.

And that doesn't mean all of them should be Commons or Normal Rares either. D-Hero Defendguy? 2700 DEF for a 4 Star monster, whose only drawback can be gotten round easily if you Tribute him for one of a million cards? Big Shield Gardna was a good card, and this guy practically as much so. Yet big Shield Gardna was so much rarer than a Common, even upon reprint (Super/Ultra Rare). It's a shame.

I could go on, but I won't. It'd be boring. Needless to say, I just wish they'd scrap the series connection and go with a solid proper game for once. Then maybe we'd get some decent rarities, and some decent cards to go along with them. Pity that'll never happen, though.
