Legendary Collection 2 Promo Pack

A few days ago, I posted the contents of LC2's Promo Pack, but I didn't have much time to get very into it, so today I'm going to review the 10 Ultra Rare cards.



First, we're getting the Darklord cards that were previously only available as YCS prize cards. These monsters have some pretty good effects, and when used with all the Fairy support, they can hit the field fast and hard. It's nice to finally get a reprint of these, and the GX manga promo, Darklord Desire is also in LC2 so everyone can have a complete set of Darklords.


Cyber Larva
LIGHT/1/Machine/Effect
When this face-up card on the field is selected as an attack target, any Battle Damage you take during this turn becomes 0. When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 "Cyber Larva" from your Deck.
ATK/400 DEF/600

The only possible use I see for this card is in some kind of Cyber Eltanin OTK since this helps get Light Machines to your Graveyard while also stalling your opponent.


Lion Alligator
WATER/4/Reptile/Effect
While you control another Reptile-Type monster, during battle between an attacking Reptile-Type monster you control and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of the Reptile-Type monster, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent.
ATK/1900 DEF/200

Spawn Alligator
WATER/5/Reptile/Effect
When you Tribute a Reptile-Type monster(s) to Tribute Summon this monster, Special Summon 1 monster that was Tributed for this monster from your Graveyard during the End Phase of the turn this card was Tribute Summoned.
ATK/2200 DEF/1000

Here we have a mini archtype of Reptile Monsters. Lion Alligator a decent sized beater that gives all Reptiles a Piercing effect, and Spawn Alligator is basically a free 2200 beater if you tribute a Reptile to summon it. There aren't many reptile decks out there, unless you count Worms, and they already have their beater in Worm King.





Elemental HERO Great Tornado
WIND/8/Warrior/Fusion/Effect
1 "Elemental HERO" monster + 1 WIND monster
This card cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon. When this card is Fusion Summoned, halve the ATK and DEF of all face-up monsters your opponent controls.
ATK/2800 DEF/2200

Now we're getting to the better stuff. This is another option for the E HERO decks to fuse into. The card itself is a better than Gaia, and it's an excellent way to get rid of the opponent's Stardust Dragon or Shooting Star Dragon with Super Polymerization.




Parallel World Fusion
Normal Spell Card
Return your removed from play monsters that are listed as Fusion Material Monsters of an "Elemental HERO" Fusion Monster to the Deck and Special Summon that monster from your Extra Deck. (This is treated as a Fusion Summon). You cannot Special Summon other monsters this turn.

This is a great (and long awaited) addition to the HERO deck's arsenal. If you Miracle Fusion into an E HERO monster, you can use this card to bring out another Fusion Monster using the same material you just removed. This is great, unless you planned on retrieving those monsters using Elemental HERO The Shining's effect.




Dragonic Tactics
Normal Spell Card
Tribute 2 Dragon-Type monsters. Special Summon 1 Level 8 Dragon-Type monster from your Deck.

This card could see some use in Dragon builds using Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, but other than that, it's pretty usesless. Too bad the cost is 2 Dragons, or this could be useful in other decks to easily summon Light and Darkness Dragon.




Coat of Justice
Continuous Spell Card
If you control a face-up Level 1 Fairy-Type Monster, you can Special Summon 1 Fairy-Type monster from your hand. This effect can only be used once per turn.

Unless you want to use a card like Arcana Force 0 - The Fool or Hanewata, this card is pretty useless, although I'm sure you could make an interesting Fairy build with The Fool, Coat of Justice, Valhalla, and some strong Fairy-type Monsters.

Legendary Collection 2: Minor Update

I've been pretty busy lately (partly due to HP7.5 :D), which has kept me from updating anything on here. A few of the Legendary Collection 2 cards have been confirmed, so I thought I'd give a little update on that.

Good: Ultra Rare Instant Fusion


This is a huge rarity bump from a common, and this card has been seeing some play in Fabled decks lately, so that's a nice upgrade for them.

Bad: Super Rare Elemental HERO Tempest


One of the many unplayable cards that will be included in LC2. At least it's not wasting an ultra or secret spot.

Great: 10 holo Gladiator Beasts!

Not only is this a great deal for GB players, but it also confirms that the cards in this set aren't necessarily from the GX anime. From what was said, we can assume this only includes GB monsters, but it would be nice to see some holo Proving Grounds and Respites.

Legendary Collection 2: the Duel Academy Years

Why do I feel like this blog has turned into a products page? -_-

Last year, we got the Legendary Collection; an assortment of old packs and bad cards. If you were to tell me that the second go would be different, I probably wouldn't believe you. First of all, since the original collection contained the original God Cards, we'd be correct in assuming that the GX version comes with the Sacred Beasts; 3 terrible cards that have already been printed several times.


What else can we assume? The first Legendary Collection contained 5 packs containing cards from the original series, it would make sense that LC2 would come with packs like The Lost Millennium, Cybernetic Revolution, Elemental Energy, Phantom Darkness, and Light of Destruction. Well, that's where you'd be wrong!

Instead of giving us more of what we don't want, Konami has assembles a 266-card set that "collects the top cards from the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX era". Aside from all the awful Heroes, Ancient Gears, and Cybers, what other cards are from the GX era? Vennominaga, Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo, Dark Armed Dragon, Yubel - the Ultimate Nightmare, Card Trooper, and more great cards that are in need of a reprint. Perhaps the best part about this "mega set" is that in each of the 5 included packs, you get 1 Secret Rare, 1 Ultra Rare, 1 Super Rare, 1 Rare, and 5 Common cards!

That's not even all of it! Each GX-themed binder also contains a promo pack containing 10 ultra rares! Of course, none of the cards besides the Sacred Beasts have been confirmed, but for the (assumed) price of $20-$30, this seems like a great deal. Personally, I can't wait to see what will be inside these packs. 2011 is looking to be the best year for Yugioh, yet! By the way, the release date for this is October 4th, just 2 weeks before the new Dark World structure deck, so start saving up!
