DUOV-EN020
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Bloom Harmonist the Melodious Composer
LIGHT / Fairy-Type Link / ATK 1000 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 Fairy monsters
If this card is Link Summoned: You can discard 1 card; Special Summon 2 "Melodious" monsters with different Levels from your Deck to your zones this card points to, in Defense Position. You cannot Special Summon monsters the turn you activate this effect, except "Melodious" monsters. You can only use this effect of "Bloom Harmonist the Melodious Composer" once per turn. If a "Melodious" monster this card points to attacks, your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage Step.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Unfortunate that the 1st effect is a 1-time deal because otherwise, it'd make this card more viable. Still, that 1000 ATK isn't going to help you much anyway and neither is the 2nd effect.
DUOV-EN019
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Artifact Dagda
LIGHT / Fairy-Type Link / ATK 1500 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 monsters with different names
When an effect of another card on the field is activated (Quick Effect): You can Set 1 "Artifact" monster from your hand or Deck to your Spell & Trap Zone as a Spell, but destroy it during your opponent's next End Phase. During your opponent's turn, if this Link Summoned card is destroyed: You can Special Summon 1 "Artifact" monster from your GY in Defense Position. You can only use each effect of "Artifact Dagda" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Unlike real life where some artifacts can be quite useful, Artifacts as cards have proven to be failures all the way through.
DUOV-EN018
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Bujinki Ahashima
LIGHT / Beast-Warrior-Type Link / ATK 1500 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Top and Bottom-Right
2 monsters with the same Level
Cannot be used as Link Material. You can only use each of the following effects of "Bujinki Ahashima" once per turn.
● If this card is Link Summoned: You can Special Summon 2 monsters with the same Level, 1 from your hand and 1 from your GY, but negate their effects, and immediately after this effect resolves, Xyz Summon 1 Xyz Monster using those 2 monsters only.
● If an Xyz Monster this card points to activates an effect by detaching material(s) (except during the Damage Step): You can target 1 Spell/Trap your opponent controls; destroy it.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: So by wasting 2 monsters to bring this guy out, it can't be used for anything except a Tribute or Special Summon outside of the Extra Deck. Neither effect is all that good either.
DUOV-EN017
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Mecha Phantom Beast Auroradon
WIND / Machine-Type Link / ATK 2100 / Link-3
Active Link Arrow(s): Left, Bottom and Bottom-Right
2+ Machine monsters
If this card is Link Summoned: You can activate this effect; Special Summon 3 "Mecha Phantom Beast Tokens" (Machine/WIND/Level 3/ATK 0/DEF 0), also you cannot Link Summon for the rest of this turn. Once per turn: You can Tribute up to 3 monsters, then apply 1 of these effects, based on the number Tributed;
● 1: Destroy 1 card on the field.
● 2: Special Summon 1 "Mecha Phantom Beast" monster from your Deck.
● 3: Add 1 Trap from your GY to your hand.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Just goes to show that you can't always update ancient technology and make it better. This card and all its friends are based on ancient tech and none of them have aged well.
DUOV-EN016
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Reptilianne Echidna
DARK / Reptile-Type Link / ATK 200 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Left and Bottom-Right
2 monsters, including a Reptile monster
If this card is Link Summoned: You can target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; change its ATK to 0. During your Main Phase, if your opponent controls a monster(s) with 0 ATK: You can add Reptile monsters with different names from your Deck to your hand, up to the number of monsters your opponent controls with 0 ATK, also, you cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn, except Reptile monsters. You can only use each effect of "Reptilianne Echidna" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Reptilianne Medusa can make them have multiple monsters with 0 ATK for 1 card in your hand each. Plus it not only takes less effort to bring out but also has 20 times more ATK.
DUOV-EN015
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Crossrose Dragon
DARK / Dragon-Type Link / ATK 800 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Left and Bottom
2 monsters with different Types
During the Main Phase (Quick Effect): You can Tribute this card and 1 Plant monster; Special Summon 1 "Rose" Synchro Monster or 1 Plant Synchro Monster from your Extra Deck. (This is treated as a Synchro Summon.) If a monster(s) you control is destroyed by card effect, while this card is in your GY (except during the Damage Step): You can banish this card; Special Summon 1 "Rose Dragon" monster from your GY. You can only use each effect of "Crossrose Dragon" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: It's bad enough that it costs you 4 monsters, two to use the effect and two to Link Summon this card but it only brings out specific Synchros from your Extra Deck and members in both those categories are pretty bad.
DUOV-EN014
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Selene, Queen of the Master Magicians
LIGHT / Spellcaster-Type Link / ATK 1850 / Link-3
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom, Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2+ monsters, including a Spellcaster monster
If this card is Link Summoned: Place Spell Counters on this card, equal to the number of Spells on the field and in the GYs. While an "Endymion" card(s) is on the field, your opponent's monsters cannot target this card for attacks. Once per turn, during the Main Phase (Quick Effect): You can remove 3 Spell Counters from your field; Special Summon 1 Spellcaster monster from your hand or GY in Defense Position, to your zone this card points to.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Spellcasters have better ways to use Spell Counters or bring out monsters than to waste either of those to bring this card out and they all generally have higher ATK and better effects for their efforts.
DUOV-EN013
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Xtra HERO Infernal Devicer
DARK / Fiend-Type Link / ATK 1700 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom and Bottom-Left
2 "HERO" monsters
If this card is Link Summoned: You can reveal 1 "HERO" Fusion Monster in your Extra Deck, and if you do, add up to 2 of the Fusion Materials listed on that card, with different names, from your Deck to your hand. You cannot Special Summon monsters the turn you activate this effect, except "HERO" monsters. You can only use this effect of "Xtra HERO Infernal Devicer" once per turn. Fiend monsters this card points to gain ATK/DEF equal to its Level x 100.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Not only are you revealing much of your strategy but this guy doesn't have the ATK power to keep things going very long once your strategy is foiled, or even if your strategy is still intact.
DUOV-EN012
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Simorgh, Bird of Sovereignty
WIND / Winged Beast-Type Link / ATK 2400 / Link-3
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom, Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2+ monsters, including a Winged Beast monster
Cannot be used as Link Material. Your opponent cannot target this card or a Winged Beast monster(s) this card points to with card effects. If this card would be destroyed by battle, you can destroy 1 other "Simorgh" card you control instead. During the End Phase: You can Special Summon 1 Winged Beast monster from your hand or Deck, with a Level equal to or lower than the total number of unused Spell & Trap Zones on the field. You can only use this effect of "Simorgh, Bird of Sovereignty" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Simorgh continues to show that being corrupted is the only way to get better because outside of Dark Simorgh, all members suck.
DUOV-EN011
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Herald of Mirage Lights
LIGHT / Fairy-Type Link / ATK 600 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 monsters with the same Type and Attribute, except Tokens
When a Spell/Trap Card or effect is activated (Quick Effect): You can send 1 Fairy monster from your hand to the GY; negate the activation, and if you do, destroy it. If this card in your possession is sent to your GY by an opponent's card: You can add up to 2 Ritual Monsters and/or Ritual Spells with different names from your GY to your hand. You can only use each effect of "Herald of Mirage Lights" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: I wish it truly was a mirage because I can find those same effects or better with cards in the same family and for less work.
DUOV-EN010
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Ancient Gear Ballista
EARTH / Machine-Type Link / ATK 1500 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Right and Bottom-Left
2 EARTH Machine monsters
If this card is Link Summoned: You can add 1 "Ancient Gear" monster or 1 "Geartown" from your Deck to your hand. You can target 1 Spell/Trap you control and 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; destroy that card you control, and if you do, change that opponent's monster's ATK/DEF to 0 until the end of the turn. You can only use each effect of "Ancient Gear Ballista" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Both effects can be achieved for much less effort and are better supported than this.
DUOV-EN009
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Union Carrier
LIGHT / Machine-Type Link / ATK 1000 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Right and Bottom
2 monsters with the same Type or Attribute
Cannot be used as Link Material the turn it is Link Summoned. You can target 1 face-up monster you control; equip 1 monster to it from your hand or Deck with its same original Type or Attribute. The equipped monster gains 1000 ATK. If you equipped it from the Deck, you cannot Special Summon monsters with that Equip Card's name for the rest of this turn. You can only use this effect of "Union Carrier" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: That's a heck of a machine in the artwork but it does so little that it makes me question the entire point of its creation.
DUOV-EN008
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Protector Whelp of the Destruction Swordsman
LIGHT / Dragon-Type Link / ATK 400 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 monsters
If this card is Link Summoned: You can send 1 "Destruction Sword" card from your Deck to the GY, then, you can Special Summon 1 "Buster Blader" monster from your hand. At the end of your Battle Phase, if your opponent controls no monsters: You can target 1 "Buster Blader" monster you control that did not declare an attack this turn; inflict damage to your opponent equal to that monster's ATK. You can only use each effect of "Protector Whelp of the Destruction Swordsman" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: With only 400 ATK and having such specific needs to get any use with, it needs help more than anything.
DUOV-EN007
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Five-Headed Link Dragon
DARK / Dragon-Type Link / ATK 5000 / Link-5
Active Link Arrows(s): Left, Right, Bottom, Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
5 monsters
Must be Link Summoned. If this card is Link Summoned using DARK, EARTH, WATER, FIRE, and WIND Attributes: You can destroy all cards your opponent controls. Cannot be destroyed by battle with a DARK, EARTH, WATER, FIRE, or WIND monster. Unaffected by other cards' effects. Once per turn, during your opponent's End Phase: You must banish 5 cards from your GY face-down (this is not optional), or send this card to the GY.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: The original is much more worthwhile because while this card is protected by more effects, it has a cost to stay on the field and you won't likely be keeping out very long.
DUOV-EN006
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Condemned Darklord
DARK / Fairy-Type Link / ATK 1600 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 Fairy monsters
You can Tribute Summon Fairy monsters that require 2 Tributes by banishing 2 monsters from your GY instead of Tributing (it is still treated as a Tribute Summon). You can discard 1 card; take 1 "Darklord" monster from your Deck, and either add it to your hand or send it to the GY. You can only use this effect of "Condemned Darklord" once per turn. Once per turn, during your End Phase: Gain 500 LP for each Fairy monster on the field.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Here's a better idea: Bypass the need for Tributes with Hall of Valhalla and just Special Summon the Fairy outright. You also won't be restrained to Darklords.
DUOV-EN005
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Raidraptor - Wise Strix
DARK / Winged Beast-Type Link / ATK 1400 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 DARK Winged Beast monsters
If this card is Link Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 Level 4 DARK Winged Beast monster from your Deck in Defense Position, but negate its effects, also it cannot be used as Link Material. If your "Raidraptor" Xyz Monster's effect is activated: Set 1 "Rank-Up-Magic" Spell directly from your Deck, and if it is a Quick-Play Spell, it can be activated this turn. You can only use each effect of "Raidraptor - Wise Strix" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: It would be wise not to even bother Link Summoning this card as your benefits are so minimal you could write them off as non-existent.
DUOV-EN004
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info D/D/D Abyss King Gilgamesh
DARK / Fiend-Type Link / ATK 1800 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 "D/D" monsters
If this card is Special Summoned: You can activate this effect; you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except "D/D" monsters, also place 2 "D/D" Pendulum Monsters with different names from your Deck in your Pendulum Zones, and if you do, take 1000 damage. If this Link Summoned card is destroyed by battle with an opponent's attacking monster, or by an opponent's card effect while in its owner's Monster Zone: You can Special Summon 1 "D/D" monster from your Extra Deck or GY in Defense Position. You can only use each effect of "D/D/D Abyss King Gilgamesh" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: In most schools, D's are just barely passing but in college, it's a failure and this guy is certainly a failure in my eyes.
DUOV-EN003
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Alien Shocktrooper M-Frame
LIGHT / Reptile-Type Link / ATK 1900 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 Reptile monsters
(Quick Effect): You can discard 1 monster; place A-Counters equal to its original Level on face-up monster(s) on the field, distributed as you wish. If this card is destroyed by battle or card effect and sent to the GY: You can Special Summon non-Link Reptile monsters with different names from your GY, up to the number of monsters your opponent controls with A-Counters. You can only use each effect of "Alien Shocktrooper M-Frame" once per turn
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Any 2 Reptile-Type monsters will work and the higher the Level, the more A-Counters you can put on monster(s) your opponent controls but it's no stronger than the original Shocktrooper and can only revive monsters from the Grave with different names.
DUOV-EN002
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Celestial Knightlord Parshath
LIGHT / Fairy-Type Link / ATK 2400 / Link-3
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom, Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2+ Fairy monsters
You can discard 1 card; add 1 "The Sanctuary in the Sky", or 1 card that specifically lists "The Sanctuary in the Sky" in its text, from your Deck to your hand, or, if "The Sanctuary in the Sky" is on the field, you can add 1 Fairy monster instead. If another face-up Fairy monster you control is sent to the GY (except during the Damage Step): You can banish 1 Fairy monster from your GY; Special Summon 1 Fairy monster from your hand whose Level is higher than that banished monster's. You can only use each effect of "Celestial Knightlord Parshath" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Wasted effort for effects that are better off done elsewhere.
DUOV-EN001
Card Type: Link Monster
Card Info Crystron Halqifibrax
WATER / Machine-Type Link / ATK 1500 / Link-2
Active Link Arrow(s): Bottom-Left and Bottom-Right
2 monsters, including a Tuner
If this card is Link Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 Level 3 or lower Tuner from your hand or Deck in Defense Position, but it cannot activate its effects this turn. During your opponent's Main Phase or Battle Phase (Quick Effect): You can banish this card you control; Special Summon 1 Tuner Synchro Monster from your Extra Deck. (This is treated as a Synchro Summon.) You can only use each effect of "Crystron Halqifibrax" once per turn.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: A late arrival from the Crystron family but it's not much of a contribution.
