Dragons of Legend: Unleashed New Card Ratings (Page 2)

*For info on how these ratings are determined, click here.
DRL3-EN029
Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon
LIGHT / Dragon-Type Xyz / Rank 8 / ATK 3000 / DEF 2500
2 Level 8 monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; monsters you control cannot attack your opponent directly for the rest of this turn, except this card, also take control of the targeted monster until the End Phase, but while this effect is applied, it has its effects negated, its ATK becomes 3000, also its name becomes "Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon".
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: So Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon has another counterpart does he? Well it's not much better given only Cipher Dragon can attack directly if the effect is used, though the new monster will also have 3000 ATK for one turn.
DRL3-EN028

Cipher Wing
LIGHT / Machine / Level 4 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1200
If you control a "Cipher" monster or "Kinetic Soldier" in your Monster Zone, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). You can Tribute this card; increase the Levels of all "Cipher" monsters and "Kinetic Soldier" you currently control by 4 until the end of this turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: One of ARC-V Kite Tenjo's cards with benefits to LIGHT and Machine, including Kinetic Soldier. Though, the effect probably won't help you that much unless you have two Cipher or Kinetic Soldiers out.
DRL3-EN027

Number 98: Antitopian
DARK / Warrior-Type Xyz / Rank 4 / ATK 2000 / DEF 2500
2 Level 4 monsters
When any player's monster declares an attack: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; change that monster to Defense Position. During either player's turn, while this card is in your Graveyard: You can target 1 "Utopia" monster on the field; Special Summon this card in Defense Position, and if you do, attach that monster to this card as an Xyz Material. You can only use this effect of "Number 98: Antitopian" once per turn.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: I'd almost consider this the better version of Utopia but it's actually weaker and won't let you benefit from cards that activate when an attack is negated. The other effect isn't bad though, especially if you snatch your opponent's Utopia.
DRL3-EN026
Number 78: Number Archive
LIGHT / Spellcaster-Type Xyz / Rank 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
2 Level 1 monsters
Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; your opponent randomly chooses 1 card in your Extra Deck, and if it is a "Number" monster that has a number between "1" and "99" in its name, Special Summon it by using this face-up card you control as the Xyz Material, but banish that monster during the End Phase, also you cannot Special Summon for the rest of this turn. (This is treated as an Xyz Summon. Xyz Materials attached to this card also become Xyz Materials on the Summoned monster.)
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Archives can be nice for instant access to seemingly lost information but all this guy archives is bad ideas because while it brings out an Xyz Monster for little effort, you lose it during the End Phase, taking this guy with it.
DRL3-EN025

Number 59: Crooked Cook
FIRE / Warrior-Type Xyz / Rank 4 / ATK 2300 / DEF 200
2 Level 4 monsters
While you control no other cards on the field, this card is unaffected by other cards' effects. Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; destroy as many other cards you control as possible, then this card gains 300 ATK until the end of this turn for each monster destroyed by this effect and sent to the Graveyard.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: It'll benefit from having your field pretty well empty but you probably won't because that means you won't be able to stop its destruction and that ATK boost doesn't last either.
DRL3-EN024

Number 51: Finisher the Strong Arm
EARTH / Rock-Type Xyz / Rank 3 / ATK 2600 / DEF 0
3 Level 3 monsters
Cannot be destroyed by battle. At the end of the Damage Step, if this card battled: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; place 1 Counter on this card (max. 3). At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card battled, and has 3 of these Counters: You can destroy all cards your opponent controls.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: Slow to get counters but since it can't be destroyed in battle and has high enough ATK to take down some threats, it should be around for a little while and clear your opponent's field.
DRL3-EN023

Number 45: Crumble Logos the Prophet of Demolition
EARTH / Zombie-Type Xyz / Rank 2 / ATK 2200 / DEF 0
2 or more Level 2 monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 other face-up card on the field; while this monster is face-up on the field, that target has its effects negated. While that target is on the field, cards with the same name as that target, and their effects, cannot be activated.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Stronger than most Xyz Monsters with its Rank but the effect relies entirely on it being face-up on the field and that 0 DEF will make it quite vulnerable in Defense Mode.
DRL3-EN022
Number 24: Dragulas the Vampiric Dragon
DARK / Wyrm-Type Xyz / Rank 6 / ATK 2400 / DEF 2800
2 Level 6 monsters
Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 face-up monster on the field that was Special Summoned from the Extra Deck; change it to face-down Defense Position. If this face-up card in its owner's control is sent to your Graveyard or banished by your opponent's card effect: You can Special Summon this card in face-down Defense Position. If this card is flipped face-up: Send 1 card on the field to the Graveyard.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Since there aren't any other Wyrm Xyz Monsters, you won't yet be able to Rank-Up to it but once it's out, it's pretty hard to get rid of and has 2800 DEF, though it has to be destroyed while face-up.
DRL3-EN021
Number 100: Numeron Dragon
LIGHT / Dragon-Type Xyz / Rank 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
2 "Number" Xyz Monsters with the same name and Rank
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; this card gains ATK equal to the combined Ranks of all Xyz Monsters currently on the field x 1000, until the end of your opponent's turn. When this card is destroyed by card effect: You can destroy as many monsters on the field as possible (min. 1), then each player Sets 1 Spell/Trap Card from their Graveyard to their field. When an opponent's monster declares an attack while this card is in your Graveyard and you have no cards in your hand or field: You can Special Summon this card.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: It may have taken down Don Thousand in the anime, but our version is so much weaker that it's really not worth the effort.
DRL3-EN020

Scrum Force
Continuous Trap
While you control 2 or more face-up Defense Position monsters, your opponent cannot target Defense Position monsters you control with card effects, also those monsters cannot be destroyed by your opponent's card effects. If this card would be destroyed by card effect, you can destroy 1 card in your Spell & Trap Zone instead.
ULTRA RARE  
Rating: 2
Comments: So I gather this would be used with Hand-Holding Genie or perhaps even the Level 1 Normal Monster you're foolishly trying to protect to bring out Zushin but once you get down to one Defense Position monster, this card becomes pretty well useless.   
DRL3-EN019

Hand-Holding Genie
DARK / Fiend / Level 4 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1600
Monsters your opponent controls cannot target monsters for attacks, except this one. This card gains DEF equal to the combined original DEF of all other face-up Defense Position monsters you control.
ULTRA RARE  
Rating: 2
Comments: It'll need that extra DEF to survive but even that doesn't protect it from card effects.
DRL3-EN018

Zushin the Sleeping Giant
EARTH / Warrior / Level 10 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be Special Summoned (from your hand) by Tributing a monster you control with 10 Zushin Counters, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. Once per turn: You can reveal this card in your hand, then target 1 Level 1 Normal Monster you control (keep this card revealed until the end of this turn); place 1 Zushin Counter on it. Unaffected by other cards' effects. If this card battles a monster, during damage calculation: ATK and DEF of this card become equal to the current ATK of the monster it is battling +1000, during that damage calculation only.
ULTRA RARE  
Rating: 1
Comments: A monster that only appeared in the 5Ds Japanese anime and thus anyone watching the dub would probably wonder where this monster came from. Even in the anime, it was a pitiful 10 turns keeping a Level 1 Normal Monster on the field just to bring it out and unfortunately, that's pretty much how you bring it out here. Plus by using its effect to give your Level 1 Normal Monster counters, you're exposing your strategy out of the gates and thus that Level 1 Normal monster is exceptionally vulnerable. Once out, it may be somewhat of a threat but not worth waiting 10 turns for. 
DRL3-EN017
Red Nova
FIRE / Fairy-Type Tuner / Level 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
If a Level 8 or higher Dragon-Type Synchro Monster is on the field, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). You can only Special Summon "Red Nova" once per turn this way. If this card is sent to the Graveyard for a Synchro Summon that uses 2 or more Tuner monsters as Materials: You can Special Summon 1 FIRE Fiend-Type monster from your Deck in Defense Position.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: You don't have to own the Dragon-Type Synchro but unless you can bring one out, this guy won't be much use, especially considering the 2nd effect revolves entirely on using it for a double-Tuner Synchro Summon.   
DRL3-EN016
Ritual Sanctuary
Field Spell
You can discard 1 Spell Card; add 1 LIGHT Ritual Monster or 1 Ritual Spell Card from your Deck to your hand. You can shuffle any number of Spell Cards from your Graveyard into the Deck, then target 1 LIGHT Fairy-Type monster in your Graveyard whose Level equals the number of cards you shuffled into the Deck; Special Summon it. You can only use each effect of "Ritual Sanctuary" once per turn.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: A bit better than the anime from what was revealed, though using the first effect will cost you a Spell Card and the 2nd will probably be more difficult to activate.
