What's up, you guys?! It's Thursday, and today on Crossride Set 9 Week, were looking at...

Ultra Beast Diety, Illuminal Dragon
Power: 11000
Grade 3
Clan: Nova Grappler
Race: Battleroid
[AUTO](VC) Limit Break 4 (This ability is active if you have four or more damage):[Counter Blast (3)] When this unit attacks a vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, choose up to two of your rear-guards with "Beast Deity" in its card name, and [Stand] them.

[CONT](VC/RC): Lord (If you have a unit without a same clan as this unit, this unit cannot attack)

As most of my viewers may know, I never saw the appeal of the Beast Deities myself and personally prefer the Death Army series over this. However, Illuminal can cause so many cards to get but the more time passes by, the better this card can become. It's it's Limit Break and Crossride bonus, the opponent will be tolerating some extremely aggressive with constantly mid-high attack powers!

Also, art is still pretty freaking awesome and is definitely going to get better once Beast Deity, Ethics Buster is released.

Rating: 5/5
Art: 4/5

Ultra Beast Deity, Illuminal Dragon

Nova Grappler players have been waiting for this guy for a long time. Your standard Lord crossride, Illuminal has a power of 11-13k, the higher being when Azure Dragon is in the soul.

His limit break is a powerful skill; as he attacks the vanguard, you can counterblast three and stand two beast deity units. Combined this with the new Golden Anglet and Blank Marsh beast deities and you’ve got four or more attacks setup BEFORE you are even thinking about stand triggers. In addition, you have the White Tiger starter who is able to stand yet another beast deity if it boosts in a column that hits a vanguard. That is a lot of pressure on an opponent to deal with. Throw in some stand triggers and you are looking at a second wave of attacks that are quite possibly bigger than the first.

Illuminal is basically another method of doing what Azure Dragon does already, just without the persona blast. By making it a limit break that requires counterblast instead of a copy of itself, you can very easily get this type of power play off several times during a game, which is especially useful if you aren’t able to draw into so many copies of Azure Dragon.

Rating: 5/5 – Time to propel Nova Grappler into the higher tiers.
