The guard locked them all inside and walked away. No wonder Dark World monsters are doing poorly.

DEF: 300		 Pendulum Scale
NA / NA

The only "usefulness" from this is giving it to your opponent so you can discard 1 of your own Dark Worlds.

DEF: 0		 Pendulum Scale
NA / NA

(Super Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
They might as well be Zombies if they love the Graveyard so much. At least they'd have better support.
Gates of the Underworld (SDGU-EN001)
Grapha, Dragon Lord of Dark World
DARK Effect Monster Level 8 ATK: 2700
DEF: 1800		 Pendulum Scale
NA / NA
(Fiend / Effect)

The Deck's boss monster has multiple effects, but none compare to the better effects from the past.

The weaker the monster, the less it likely has to offer, but that's better than nothing.

 The Big Saturn

(Common)
Rating: 1 out of 5
An unnecessary restriction for two payments and a temporary ATK boost. The last effect is even worse.

Gearframe is pretty good, but this isn't all that useful as an Equip Card.

Instant access to Fortress and has high ATK, but that DEF prevents a higher rating.

Other copies can prove useful and it has two effects to use. Could be stronger for its Level though.

Marik (TCG) (SDMA-EN038)
Temple of the Kings
SPELL Continuous Spell Level ATK:
DEF: 		Pendulum Scale

Banned right out of the box, negating what is likely one of the only selling points.
