PTDN-EN019
Dark Armed Dragon
DARK / Dragon / Level 7 / ATK 2800 / DEF 1000
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by having exactly 3 DARK monsters in your Graveyard. You can remove from play 1 DARK monster from your Graveyard to destroy 1 card on the field.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: While he has a Special Summoning requirement, it isn't hard to get DARK monsters into the Grave with Foolish Burial and other cards from this set! His summoning requirement lowers his rating by 1.
PTDN-EN018*
Dark Nephthys
DARK / Winged Beast / Level 8 / ATK 2400 / DEF 1600
If this card is in your hand and there are 3 or more DARK monsters in your Graveyard, you can remove from play 2 of them to send it to the Graveyard. If this card is sent to the Graveyard by this effect, Special Summon it during your next Standby Phase. When this card is Special Summoned, destroy 1 Spell or Trap Card.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Absolutely horrendous! Normal Summoning him requires 2 tributes and his effects don't help him either, especially when the original Nephthys come back when a card effect destroys him.
PTDN-EN017
The Dark Creator
DARK / Thunder / Level 8 / ATK 2300 / DEF 3000
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned, by having 5 or more DARK monsters in your Graveyard while you control no monsters. Once per turn, you can remove from play 1 DARK monster from your Graveyard to Special Summon 1 DARK monster from your Graveyard.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Being a SCR card, I would've expected more but his stats are identical to his pure counterpart's and he can't be summoned without 5+ DARK monsters in your Grave and no monsters on your field!
PTDN-EN016*
Dark Horus
DARK / Dragon / Level 8 / ATK 3000 / DEF 1800
Once per turn, when a Spell Card is activated during your opponent's Main Phase, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 DARK monster from your Graveyard.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: He brings back your Level 4 DARK monsters and can be summoned normally but effect only activates when Spell Cards activate during the opponent's turn and can't be used more than once per turn.
PTDN-EN015
Destiny Hero - Departed
DARK / Warrior / Level 2 / ATK 1000 / DEF 0
During your Standby Phase, if this card is in your Graveyard, Special Summon it in face-up Attack Position on your opponent's side of the field. If this card is destroyed by battle, remove it from play instead of sending it to the Graveyard. If a card effect would send this card to the Graveyard from the hand or Deck, remove it from play instead.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: They probably call him "Departed" because people won't want him in their decks once they find out he is garbage and throw him out, thus departing with the duelist who used him.
PTDN-EN014
Destiny Hero - Dunker
DARK / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1200 / DEF 1700
You can send 1 "Destiny Hero" card from your hand to the Graveyard to inflict 500 damage to your opponent.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: There's no way this guy would ever be a dunker in basketball with his mediocre stats and even worse effect. Don't run him except in the obvious Destiny Hero decks.
PTDN-EN013
Fire Trooper
FIRE / Warrior / Level 3 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1000
When this card is Summoned, you can send it to the Graveyard to inflict 1000 damage to your opponent.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Using his effect would be your best option since it'll leave your opponent with less options for which monster you control to attack and it knocks of 1000 of their LPs. Overall, a pretty bad card to use.
PTDN-EN012
Volcanic Counter
FIRE / Pyro / Level 3 / ATK 300 / DEF 1300
When you take Battle Damage while this card is in your Graveyard, remove it from play. Then, if there is a FIRE monster other than "Volcanic Counter" in your Graveyard, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the amount of Battle Damage you took.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: I suppose there will be that one lucky time where this card can deal your opponent major damage but it doesn't negate the damage done to you, making this card only worthy in a FIRE or Axel's deck.
PTDN-EN011
Cyber Ouroboros
DARK / Machine / Level 2 / ATK 100 / DEF 600
When this card is removed from play, you can send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard to draw 1 card.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: If I were UDE, I would've named this card "Cyber Oh Who Cares" because his effect and stats are truly horrible. Unless you're running Zane's Season 3 deck, don't bother with this card.
PTDN-EN010
Cyber Valley
LIGHT / Machine / Level 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
You can use 1 of the following 3 effects:
● When this card is selected as an attack target by an opponent's monster, you can remove this card from play to draw 1 card and end the Battle Phase. ● You can remove from play this card and 1 face-up monster you control, and draw 2 cards.
● You can remove from play this card and 1 card from your hand, and place 1 card from your Graveyard on top of your Deck.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: This card's rarity probably was based off of the effect of the second bullet in his text, which is probably your best option if your opponent's monsters are stronger.
PTDN-EN009
Armored Cybern
WIND / Machine-Type Union / Level 4 / ATK 0 / DEF 2000
Once per turn, you can equip this card to a "Cyber Dragon" you control, or to a Fusion Monster you control that lists "Cyber Dragon" as a Fusion Material Monster, OR unequip it to Special Summon this card in face-up Attack Position. Once per turn, while equipped to a monster by this effect, you can decrease the equipped monster's ATK by 1000 and destroy 1 face-up monster. (A monster can only by equipped with 1 Union Monster at a time. If the equipped monster would be destroyed, destroy this card instead.)
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Only play this if, your Cyber Dragon's in Defense Mode because he'll only have 1100 ATK, which is easy prey for even the weakest monsters and it'll cost you damage. If not, it's still a 2000 DEF wall.
PTDN-EN008
Yubel  - The Ultimate Nightmare
DARK / Fiend / Level 12 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except with the effect of "Yubel - Terror Incarnate". This card cannot be destroyed by battle. You take no Battle Damage from battles involving this card. If this face-up Attack Position card battles with an opponent's monster, inflict damage equal to its ATK to your opponent and destroy that monster at the end of the Damage Step.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: Yubel's final and most deadly form. While she can't be brought out other than by her previous form's effect, she too doesn't need anything to stay out and has all of her previous forms' effects!
PTDN-EN007*
Yubel - Terror Incarnate
DARK / Fiend / Level 11 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except with the effect of "Yubel". This card cannot be destroyed by battle. You take no Battle Damage from battles involving this card. When this face-up Attack Position card is attacked by an opponent's monster, before damage calculation inflict damage to your opponent equal to that monster's ATK. During your End Phase, destroy all other monsters on the field. When this face-up card is removed from the field, you can Special Summon 1 "Yubel - The Ultimate Nightmare" from your hand, Deck or Graveyard.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: While Yubel's next form has a summoning requirement, she still possesses all the other abilities of Yubel except the tributing a monster cost. The summoning requirement keeps this card from getting 5 stars.
PTDN-EN006
Yubel
DARK / Fiend / Level 10 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
This card cannot be destroyed by battle. You take no Battle Damage from battles involving this card. When this face-up Attack Position card is attacked by an opponent's monster, before damage calculation inflict damage to your opponent equal to that monster's ATK. During your End Phase, Tribute 1 monster or destroy this card. When this card is destroyed, except by its own effect, you can Special Summon 1 "Yubel - Terror Incarnate" from your hand, Deck or Graveyard.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: Am I crazy to give a Level 10 monster with no ATK and DEF a 4 star rating? Well her effects are VERY powerful and thoroughly justify her rarity in this set.
PTDN-EN005
Regenerating Rose
DARK / Plant / Level 7 / ATK 0 / DEF 1500
When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 2 "Regenerating Rose Tokens" (Plant-Type/DARK/Level 3/ATK 1200/
DEF 1200).
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: For the number of tributes required, stats of only (0/1500) are horrible. If it was a Level 4 or lower monster, it would've gotten a higher rating. Since this isn't the case, keep this in the "fun Yubel" deck.
PTDN-EN004
Samsara Lotus
DARK / Plant / Level 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
During your End Phase, if you control no Spell or Trap Cards, you can Special Summon this card from your Graveyard in face-up Attack Position. This card's controller takes 1000 damage during each of their Standby Phases.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Compared to Treeborn Frog, this card is terrible for even TF has at least SOME ATK and DEF and doesn't have any cost to pay. Keep this card in a "fun Yubel deck" only and use TF elsewhere. 
PTDN-EN003
Rainbow Dark Dragon
DARK / Dragon / Level 10 / ATK 4000 / DEF 0
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by removing from play 7 DARK monsters with different names from your Graveyard. You can remove from play all other DARK monsters you control and from your Graveyard to have this card gain 500 ATK for each card removed.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: This guy gets one more star than his TAEV counterpart because unlike that card, he's easier to summon (just 7 DARK monsters need to be in your Graveyard) and his effect can be used right away. 
PTDN-EN002
Atlantean Pikeman
WATER / Sea Serpent / Level 2 / ATK 1400 / DEF 0
The Great Ocean Lord, who reigns over the depths, is served by these lancers. Deep-sea creatures exist in fear of facing the stream of attacks their lances are capable of.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Hmm, "The Great Ocean Lord"...I find that hard to believe with his stats and those that are afraid of him are just stupid as there are much stronger fish to be afraid of than him.
PTDN-EN001
Gladiator Beast Andal
EARTH / Beast-Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1900 / DEF 1500
This one-eyed warrior bear is an aggressive hunter that strikes down its prey with the powerful swipes of its claws. No one can bear the brunt of his tremendously fast and heavy blows.
COMMON
Rating: 4
Comments: At 1900, he can go head-to-head with Gemini Elf, Elemental Hero Neos Alius and Vorse Raider! A nice addition for just about any deck! 
PTDN-EN000
Dark Grepher
DARK / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1700 / DEF 1600
You can discard 1 Level 5 or higher DARK monster to Special Summon this card from your hand. Once per turn, you can discard 1 DARK monster to send 1 DARK monster from your Deck to the Graveyard.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: With such low stats of only (1700/1600), this guy won't see much play except for getting monsters like Disc Commander, Dasher or Malicious into the Graveyard.
