Tactical Evolution (Page 3)

TAEV-EN059
Phalanx Pike
Equip Spell
The equipped monster gains 900 ATK for each card in either Graveyard that has the same name it does.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Not much use for this card. The equipped monster may gain 900 ATK per monster but the monsters must be in the Graveyard. Might be decent in a Normal Monster deck though.
TAEV-EN058
Creature Seizure
Normal Spell
Each player gives their opponent control of 1 of their monsters (controller's choice). You must choose a face-up Normal Monster.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: A waste of deck space. Use Creature Swap instead since you can choose any monster you control.
TAEV-EN057
Summoner's Art
Normal Spell
Add 1 Level 5 or higher Normal Monster from your Deck to your hand.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Unless you're running a Normal Monster deck that uses high-level monsters, don't run this.
TAEV-EN056
Double Summon
Normal Spell
You can Normal Summon 1 additional time this turn. You can only gain this effect once per turn.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: There are very limited uses for this card since you can use Ancient Rules to bring out a high-level Normal Monster without tributes but you can't with this card. Use AR instead.
TAEV-EN055
Flint Missile
Quick-Play Spell
Destroy 1 monster equipped with "Flint". You can return this card to your Deck instead of sending it to the Graveyard after it resolves.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: A sad excuse to run Flint. Don't run it or this card.
TAEV-EN054
Cyberdark Impact!
Normal Spell
Return 1 "Cyberdark Edge", "Cyberdark Keel" and "Cyberdark Horn" from your side of the field, hand, or Graveyard to your Deck. Special Summon 1 "Cyberdark Dragon" from your Fusion Deck. (This Special Summon is treated as a Fusion Summon.)
SECRET RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: The Contact Fusion for Cyber Dark Dragon! It's definitely better than using Polymerization/Future Fusion, Overload Fusion but still not a great card to use.
TAEV-EN053
Venom Shot
Normal Spell
Activate only while you control a face-up "Venom" monster, "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes", or "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes". Send 1 Reptile-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard and place 2 Venom Counters on 1 face-up monster your opponent controls.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: The only use for this is when your opponent's monster(s) have no more than 500 ATK left or on one monster that has no more than 1000 ATK left.
TAEV-EN052
Snake Rain
Normal Spell
Discard 1 card. Select 4 Reptile-Type monsters from your Deck and send them to the Graveyard.
RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Unless this is to power up Vennominion or Vennominaga, don't run this.
TAEV-EN051
Venom Swamp
Field Spell
Monsters lose 500 ATK for each Venom Counter on them. Destroy a monster if its ATK becomes 0 by this effect. During each player's End Phase, place 1 Venom Counter on each face-up monster, except "Venom" monsters.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: In Venom decks, this card is decent but elsewhere, it's trash.
TAEV-EN050
Cocoon Rebirth
Continuous Spell
You can Tribute 1 face-up "Chrysalis" monster you control to Special Summon 1 "Neo-Spacian" monster written in the card text of that card from either player's Graveyard.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: While not the worst card in the set, it's not the best either but it can be somewhat okay for bringing out Flare Scarab or Grand Mole though.
TAEV-EN049
NEX
Normal Spell
Send 1 face-up "Neo-Spacian" monster you control to the Graveyard. Special Summon 1 Level 4 monster with the same name from your Fusion Deck.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: You're better off using Metamorphosis in every other deck and keeping this card in Jaden's Neo Space deck.
TAEV-EN048
Cocoon Party
Normal Spell
Special Summon 1 "Chrysalis" monster from your Deck for each "Neo-Spacian" monster with a different name in your Graveyard.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: A pretty bad card. The only good thing about it is extra tributes or extra defenses. Keep this in Jaden's Neo Space deck only.
TAEV-EN047
Convert Contact
Normal Spell
Activate only while you control no monsters. Send 1 "Neo-Spacian" monster from your hand and 1 from your Deck to the Graveyard. Then draw 2 cards.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Same as TAEV-EN046's comments.
TAEV-EN046
Reverse of Neos
Quick-Play Spell
Activate only when a face-up "Neos" Fusion Monster you control is destroyed. Special Summon 1 "Elemental Hero Neos" from your Deck in Attack Position. It gains 1000 ATK and is destroyed during the End Phase of this turn.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Just keep this card in Jaden's Neo Space deck only.
TAEV-EN045*
Fifth Hope
Normal Spell
Select 5 "Elemental Hero" cards from your Graveyard and shuffle them into the Deck. Then draw 2 cards. Draw 3 cards instead if you had no other cards on your side of the field and in your hand when you activated this card.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: The PoA for Elemental Heroes and a particularly bad one since you need 5 Elemental Heroes in your Graveyard to use it and Pot is better since it can be ANY 5 monsters. So outside Elemental Heroes, use PoA.
TAEV-EN044
Ojama Knight
LIGHT / Beast-Type Fusion / Level 5 / ATK 0 / DEF 2500
1 "Ojama" monster + 1 "Ojama" monster
Select up to 2 of your opponent's Monster Card Zones. The selected zones cannot be used.
COMMON
Rating: 3
Comments: Play him with Ojama King and your opponent cannot Summon or Set anything unless the King and his Knight leave your field and with 2500 DEF, that won't be easy! Plus, summoning him is pretty easy!
TAEV-EN043
Elemental Hero Magma Neos
FIRE / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 9 / ATK 3000 / DEF 2500
"Elemental Hero Neos" + "Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab" + "Neo-Spacian Grand Mole"
This card can only be Special Summoned from your Fusion Deck by returning the above cards you control to the Deck. (You do not use "Polymerization".) This card gains 400 ATK for each card on the field. This card returns to the Fusion Deck during the End Phase. When this card is returned to the Fusion Deck by this effect, return all cards on the field to their owner's hands.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 4
Comments: 3000 ATK and getting 400 ATK for each card on the field for a potential 11,800 ATK is quite decent but he needs 3 monsters to be summoned and without Neo Space, he returns to the Fusion Deck at the End Phase.
TAEV-EN042*
Elemental Hero Darkbright
DARK / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 6 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1000
"Elemental Hero Sparkman" + "Elemental Hero Necroshade"
This monster cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon. During battle between this attacking card and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent. If this card attacks, it is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Damage Step. If this card is destroyed, destroy 1 monster your opponent controls.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: The ONLY reason why this card gets 2/5 is because he possesses the trample effect as Dasher can run over this card with ease no matter which mode Darkbright is in.
TAEV-EN041
Elemental Hero Marine Neos
WATER / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2300
"Elemental Hero Neos" + "Neo-Spacian Marine Dolphin"
This card can only be Special Summoned from your Fusion Deck by returning the above cards you control to the Deck. (You do not use "Polymerization".) Once per turn, you can select 1 random card from your opponent's hand and destroy it.
RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Being 2800 ATK, I would've expected more but since he's a Rare, he's not much at all. Keep him in Jaden's Neo Space deck only.
TAEV-EN040
Neo-Spacian Marine Dolphin
WATER / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 4 / ATK 900 / DEF 1100
This card's name is also treated as "Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin". This card cannot be Special Summoned except with "NEX". Once per turn, you can discard 1 card to look at your opponent's hand and select 1 Monster Card in it. If you control a monster with an ATK greater than or equal to the selected monster's, destroy the selected card and inflict 500 damage to your opponent.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: A powered-up Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin is about all this card is and he isn't worth using anywhere but Jaden's Neo Space deck so keep him there.
