Darj Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 Card A: It has useful and amusing effects, such as attacking during the opponent's BP, but its base ATK doesn't help: 2100 isn't a good value on an Rank4 whose job is to battle and beat things up. It does have a built-in ATK boost effect, which apparently stacks for a total ATK of 2500, but it will take at least 2 turns to set up and after it is done it will no longer have its Armades-ish perk. I guess it is a fair exchange but still, perhaps +100 to its base ATK would have been enough to make a big difference. Card B: Oh wow, to be honest I thought this was a solid card: Sets Rocks in the grave, disables from attacking any monster stronger than it, and the piercing is more of icing on the cake. Although I believed that 2700 ATK was way above the benchmark for 2-material Rank4s with an effect, considering that Pearl set the ATK limit of 2600; but then again, there are exceptions such as Bahamut Shark and Diamond Crab who is essentially a 2-turn 3000-ATK beater, and Rock Stun kind of need the support. Then I realized it actually is a 3-material Rank4. So yeah, the card suddenly is not as useful than I thought, because you may as well go for stronger 3-mat Rank4s with higher ATK and removal effects, such as Ouroboros. Of course, as an EARTH this works with Block Golem's restriction, but Rock Stun can rarely afford to make 3-mat Rank4s anyways so this won't exactly help them. My vote goes for Card A because it has an unique effect of attacking during the opponent's turn, it is more or less an Armades for Warrior Rank4s, and can potentially turn into a 2500-ATK beater if allowed to set up. Card B is 1 material away to being really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
