Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN020)
Aleister the Invoker of Madness
DARK Spellcaster / Link / Effect Level ATK: 1800
Link-2
Pendulum
Scale:
Links: Bottom Corners
2 monsters with different Types and different Attributes
This card's name becomes “Aleister the Invoker” while on the field or in the GY. If a monster is Fusion Summoned while you control this monster (except during the Damage Step): You can discard 1 card, and if you do, add 1 “Invocation” or “The Book of the Law” from your Deck to your hand. If this face-up card you control leaves the field because of an opponent's card effect: You can add 1 “Omega Summon” from your Deck to your hand.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
Madness would be thinking this is actually good when it only supports bad cards.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN019)
Forbidden Trapezohedron
SPELL Normal Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
If you control exactly 2 monster card types (among Fusion, Synchro, and/or Xyz): Apply the following effect based on those types.
● Fusion and Synchro: Special Summon 1 "Outer Entity" Xyz Monster from your Extra Deck, and if you do, attach this card to it as material.
● Synchro and Xyz: Special Summon 1 "Elder Entity" Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck.
● Xyz and Fusion: Special Summon 1 "Old Entity" Synchro Monster from your Extra Deck.
You can only activate 1 "Forbidden Trapezohedron" per turn.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
It's just like the other Forbidden cards that aren't part of Exodia.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN018)
Outer Entity Azathot
DARK Fiend / Xyz / Effect Rank 5 ATK: 2400
DEF: 0
Pendulum
Scale:
3 Level 5 monsters
You can also Xyz Summon this card by using an "Outer Entity" Xyz Monster you control as material. (Transfer its materials to this card.) Cannot be used as material for an Xyz Summon. After this card was Xyz Summoned, your opponent cannot activate monster effects for the rest of that turn. If this card has at least 3 Xyz Materials (1 Fusion, 1 Synchro, and 1 Xyz Monster): You can detach 1 material from this card; destroy all cards your opponent controls.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
A Rank 5 that can't be Xyz Material is bad enough, but then the big effect requires so much more.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN017)
Outer Entity Nyarla
EARTH Fiend / Xyz / Effect Rank 4 ATK: 0
DEF: 2600
Pendulum
Scale:
2 Level 4 monsters
When this card is Xyz Summoned: You can discard any number of cards; increase this card's Rank by 1 for each card discarded. Once per turn, if this card has Xyz Material: You can target 1 monster in your GY; detach all materials from this card, and if you do, attach that monster to this card as material, and if you do that, this card's Type and Attribute become that material's original Type and Attribute.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
2 monsters for 2600 DEF just isn't good enough when the effects don't back it up.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN016)
Old Entity Chthugua
FIRE Pyro / Synchro / Effect Level 4 ATK: 2200
DEF: 200
Pendulum
Scale:
1 Tuner + 1+ non-Tuner monsters
If this card is Synchro Summoned: You can return all Rank 4 Xyz Monsters on the field to the Extra Deck. If you Fusion Summon using this card as a Fusion Material: Draw 1 card. An Xyz Monster that was Summoned using this card on the field as Xyz Material gains this effect.
● If it is Xyz Summoned: Draw 1 card.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
Beyond pathetic considering it's like the Synchro equivalent of 4-Starred Ladybug of Doom.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN015)
Ninjitsu Art of Mirage-Transformation
TRAP Continuous Trap Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Tribute 1 “Ninja” monster, then target 1 monster in your opponent's GY; Special Summon it to your field. It is also treated as a “Ninja” monster while this card is face-up on the field. When this card leaves the field, send that monster to the GY you can only activate 1 “Ninjitsu Art of Mirage-Transformation” per turn.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
Easily the worst variant of Monster Reborn we've had recently.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN014)
Hidden Village of Ninjitsu Arts
SPELL Field Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
If a “Ninja” monster is Summoned to your field: You can target 1 “Ninja” monster or 1 “Ninjitsu Art” card in your GY; add it to your hand, but you cannot activate cards, or the effects of cards, with that name for the rest of this turn. If a “Ninja” monster(s) or “Ninjitsu Art” card(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or an opponent’s card effect, you can banish 1 “Ninja” monster from your GY instead. You can only use each effect of “Hidden Village of Ninjitsu Arts” once per turn.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
Even if Ninjas were good as a whole, this basically renders them useless as whatever you get can't be played.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN013)
Yellow Dragon Ninja
WIND Dinosaur / Effect Level 8 ATK: 3000
DEF: 1500
Pendulum
Scale:
Cannot be Special Summoned, except with the effect of a "Ninja" monster or "Ninjitsu Art" card. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can send 1 "Ninja" monster and 1 "Ninjitsu Art" card from your hand and/or face-up from your field to the GY, then target up to 2 Spells/Traps on the field; destroy them.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Thanks to that first line of text, I can only give this a 2 despite its high ATK.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN012)
Yellow Ninja
WIND Warrior / Effect Level 4 ATK: 1900
DEF: 1800
Pendulum
Scale:
If this card is Normal Summoned or flipped face-up: You can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower “Ninja” monster from your hand in Attack Position or face-down Defense Position, also you cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn, except “Ninja” monsters. You can only use this effect of “Yellow Ninja” once per turn.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 3 out of 5
Grandmaster Sakuke and Hanzo are good choices, or this can be used decently on its own.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN011)
Ninja Grandmaster Saizo
LIGHT Warrior / Link / Effect Level ATK: 2000
Link-2
Pendulum
Scale:
Links: Bottom Corners
2 "Ninja" monsters
During your Main Phase: You can Set 1 “Ninjitsu Art” Spell/Trap directly from your Deck. You can only use this effect of “Ninja Grandmaster Saizo” once per turn. While this card points to a monster(s), that card cannot be targeted for an attack, also your opponent cannot target it with card effects.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
At least there's two good members, and you can use 2 of the same one, but the effect is quite mediocre.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN010)
Goddess Urd's Verdict
SPELL Continuous Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Your opponent cannot target “Valkyrie” monsters you control with card effects, also they cannot be destroyed by your opponent’s card effects. Once per turn: You can declare 1 card name, then target 1 Set card your opponent controls; reveal the Set card, and if it was the declared card, banish it. Otherwise, banish 1 card you control.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Really needs the other to for most of the benefits, but one of the benefits can be used right away.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN009)
Goddess Verdande's Guidance
SPELL Continuous Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
When this card is activated: If all monsters you control are “Valkyrie” monsters (min. 1), you can add 1 “Goddess Urd's Verdict” from your Deck to your hand. Once per turn: You can declare 1 type of card (Monster, Spell, or Trap); reveal the top card of your opponent’s Deck and if it was the declared type, they Set it to their field. Otherwise, they add it to their hand. You can only activate 1 “Goddess Verdande's Guidance” per turn.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
They help get the other two into the hand, but you still need to correctly guess, and not even these guarantee success.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN008)
Goddess Skuld's Oracle
SPELL Continuous Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
When this card is activated: If all monsters you control are “Valkyrie” monsters (min. 1), you can add 1 “Goddess Verdande's Guidance” from your Deck to your hand. Once per turn, during your Main Phase: You can look at the top 3 cards of your opponent’s Deck, and if you do, place them on top of their Deck in any order, but you cannot Normal or Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except Fairy monsters. You can only activate 1 “Goddess Skuld's Oracle” once per turn.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
This is where the three card combo really comes into play, but it's not enough on its own.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN007)
Mischief of the Time Goddess
SPELL Quick-Play Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Neither player can activate cards or effects in response to this card’s activation. Cannot be activated as Chain Link 2 or higher. At the end of your Battle Phase, if all monsters you control are “Valkyrie” monsters (min. 1): Send this card to the GY, also, immediately after this effect resolves, skip to the start of the Battle Phase of your next turn. If you do, you cannot activate “Mischief of the Time Goddess” until the end of that turn.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Of course it would be limited to Valkyries, and most of those aren't very good.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN006)
Ride of the Valkyries
SPELL Normal Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Special Summon any number of “Valkyrie” monsters with different names from your hand. If you Special Summoned 3 or more monsters with this effect, you take no battle damage until the end of the next turn. During the End Phase of the turn you activated this card, shuffle all monsters you control into the Deck. You can banish this card from your GY; add 1 “Mischief of the Time Goddess” from your Deck to your hand. You can only use this effect of “Ride of the Valkyries” once per turn.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
You have basically a sigle turn to swing the Duel your way or make it more likely you'll win, and only with Valkyries.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN005)
Fortune Chariot
WIND Fairy / Union / Effect Level 6 ATK: 1000
DEF: 2000
Pendulum
Scale:
(This card is also always treated as a “Valkyrie” card.)
Once per turn, you can either: Target 1 Fairy monster you control; equip this card to that target, OR: Unequip this card and Special Summon it. If the equipped monster would be destroyed by battle or card effect, destroy this card instead. The equipped monster can attack directly, but when it does so using this effect, the battle damage inflicted to your opponent is halved.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Being a Fairy itself allows it to be brought out with Valhalla too, but the effect only deals half the damage.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN004)
Valkyrie Brunhilde
LIGHT Fairy / Effect Level 7 ATK: 1800
DEF: 2000
Pendulum
Scale:
Unaffected by your opponent’s Spell effects. Gains 500 ATK for each monster your opponent controls. When an opponent’s monster declares an attack: You can have this card lose exactly 1000 DEF, and if you do, your “Valkyrie” monsters cannot be destroyed by battle this turn.
(Secret Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
It's possible for this to have 4300 ATK or more, but that's an unliklihood and this is otherwise weak for a Level 7.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN003)
Valkyrie Erste
LIGHT Fairy / Effect Level 6 ATK: 1600
DEF: 1800
Pendulum
Scale:
If this card is Special Summoned from your hand by a Spell effect: You can target 1 “Mischief of the Time Goddess” in your GY; add it to your hand. If you control a “Valkyrie” monster other than “Valkyrie Erste” (Quick Effect): You can banish 1 monster from your opponent’s GY, then this card’s ATK becomes equal to the banished monster’s original ATK until the end of this turn. You can only use each effect of “Valkyrie Erste” once per turn.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
You'll need something like Valhalla for this to be worth it as a Level 6 monster.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN002)
Valkyrie Zweite
LIGHT Fairy / Effect Level 5 ATK: 1600
DEF: 1600
Pendulum
Scale:
If this card is Summoned: You can target 1 monster your opponent controls; destroy it. After damage calculation, if this card battled: You can target 1 Continuous Spell in your GY; add it to your hand. You can only use each effect of “Valkyrie Zweite” once per turn.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Any method of Summoning it destroys a monster, but that's still quite bad for a Level 5 monster this weak.
Shadows in Valhalla (SHVA-EN001)
Valkyrie Dritte
LIGHT Fairy / Effect Level 4 ATK: 1000
DEF: 1600
Pendulum
Scale:
If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can add 1 “Valkyrie” card from your Deck to your hand, except "Valkyrie Dritte". You can only use this effect of "Valkyrie Dritte" once per turn. Gains 200 ATK for each of your opponent’s banished monsters.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
A dedicated Valkyrie Deck probably won't be enough to make this all that good.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN010)
Harmonizing Magician
DARK Spellcaster / Pendulum / Tuner / Effect Level 4 ATK: 0
DEF: 0
Pendulum
Scale: 8
Pendulum Text: All monsters you control gain 100 ATK and DEF for each face-up "Magician" Pendulum Monster with different names in your Extra Deck.
Monster Text: Cannot be Special Summoned from the Extra Deck. Cannot be used as Material for a Fusion, Synchro, or Xyz Summon, unless all other Materials are "Magician" Pendulum Monsters. When this card is Pendulum Summoned from the hand: You can Special Summon 1 "Magician" Pendulum Monster from your Deck in Defense Position, except "Harmonizing Magician", but it has its effects negated, also banish it when it leaves the field. You can only use this effect of "Harmonizing Magician" once per turn.
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Far too strict as a Monster Card, but it has a Pendulum Scale of 8 and is searchable.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN009)
Timestar Magician
DARK Spellcaster / Xyz / Effect Rank 4 ATK: 2400
DEF: 1200
Pendulum
Scale:
2 Level 4 "Magician" Pendulum Monsters
Must first be Xyz Summoned with the above Xyz Materials. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; add to your hand, 1 DARK Spellcaster-Type monster from your Deck, Graveyard, or face-up from your Extra Deck. Once per turn, if a Pendulum Monster Card(s) in your Monster Zone or Pendulum Zone would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can send 1 Spellcaster-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard instead.
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
The required Xyz Materials nearly kill its uses entirely, but there's a relatively useful first effect.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN008)
Time Pendulumgraph
TRAP Continuous Trap Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Your opponent cannot target Spellcaster-Type monsters you control with Trap Cards or effects. You can only use the following effect of "Time Pendulumgraph" once per turn. You can target 1 "Magician" Pendulum Monster Card in your Monster Zone or Pendulum Zone, and 1 card your opponent controls; destroy them. Then, if this effect did not destroy 2 cards, you can send 1 card on the field to the Graveyard.
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Certainly better than the Dark Magcian-exclusive support from TDIL, but not enough for a 3 or more.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN007)
Star Pendulumgraph
SPELL Continuous Spell Level ATK:
DEF:
Pendulum
Scale:
Your opponent cannot target Spellcaster-Type monsters you control with Spell Cards or effects. If a face-up "Magician" Pendulum Monster Card(s) leaves your Monster Zone or Pendulum Zone: Add 1 "Magician" Pendulum Monster from your Deck to your hand. You can only use this effect of "Star Pendulumgraph" once per turn.
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Used with the next card makes your Spellcasters practically immune to any opponent's effect.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN006)
Purple Poison Magician
DARK Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect Level 4 ATK: 1200
DEF: 2100
Pendulum

If this card is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can target 1 face-up card on the field; destroy it.
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Won't poison your strategy, though the effects aren't really going to help it much either.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN005)
White Wing Magician
WIND Spellcaster / Pendulum / Tuner / Effect Level 4 ATK: 1600
DEF: 1400
Pendulum
Scale: 1
Pendulum Text: Once per turn, when an activated card or effect resolves that targets a DARK Spellcaster-Type monster you control, negate that effect, then destroy this card.
Monster Text: (This card is always treated as a "Synchro Dragon" card.)
If this Pendulum Summoned card is used for a Synchro Summon, banish it.
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Not much for Pendulum Summoning with anyway, and the Monster Text gives you extra incentive not to.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN004)
Black Fang Magician
DARK Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect Level 4 ATK: 1700
DEF: 800
Pendulum
Scale: 8
Pendulum Text: Once per turn: You can target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; its ATK becomes half its current ATK (until the end of this turn), then destroy this card.

(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Even as Pendulum Monsters, Spellcasters haven't really improved much at all.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN003)
Double Irus Magician
DARK Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect Level 4 ATK: 1500
DEF: 1000
Pendulum
Scale: 8

If this card is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can add 1 "Pendulumgraph" card from your Deck to your hand.
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
The Pendulum Text can be potent, but Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon does it automatically.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN002)
Chronograph Sorcerer
DARK Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect Level 6 ATK: 2000
DEF: 1700
Pendulum
Scale: 8
Pendulum Text: During your Main Phase: You can destroy this card, and if you do, take 1 "Timegazer Magician" from your hand or Deck, and either place it in your Pendulum Zone or Special Summon it. You can only use this effect of "Chronograph Sorcerer" once per turn.

(This is treated as a Fusion Summon.)
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
The Monster Text can certainly help, but with those stats, your 2nd monster better be stronger.
Pendulum Evolution (PEVO-EN001)
Astrograph Sorcerer
DARK Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect Level 7 ATK: 2500
DEF: 2000
Pendulum

A low Pendulum Scale is about the best thing I see here.
