Hello my Kaijudo Acolytes and Adepts! I'm bringing you this Friday edition of the Card of the Day from the Darkness Civilization! The power has been shut down by the Enforcers down the street and it appears that there's  someone likely working for the Choten that stole some chemicals to try to evolve some other creatures. This has been going on for a while now, so I'm working with what power my personal device has to bring you today's review until I'm allowed to return to my rightful place on the other side of the veil! While I still can, let's take a look at Starseed Squadron!

Name: Starseed Squadron
Civilization:
Light/Nature
Type: Creature
Race:
Enforcer/Tree Kin
Level:
4
Power:
4000
Flavor Text: N/A
Rarity: Very Rare
Set Number: 84/110 l 7CLA

Abilities:

(This card enters your mana zone tapped.)
Spellcharge- Whenever you cast a spell, each of your creatures gets +2000 power until the end of the turn.
Overpower- Each of your creatures that has power 6000 or more has "Double Breaker." (A creature that has "Double Breaker" breaks 2 shields.)

Starseed Squadron was one of my official preview cards that I received exclusively from Wizards of the Coast (alongside Sword Horned). This card is overall balanced in terms of his level/power ratio (level 4 with 4000 power). This card combos well with an aggressive strategy and has seen some recent play in the form of a deck called "Leap of Faith" and was and was pioneered by a member of the Denver Kaijudo group.  The main idea of the deck as I saw it, was to get creatures out consistently and early on and then or when all of their creatures were stronger than 6000 you could go in and overwhelm the opponent by turn 4-6.

Squadron itself isn't anything amazing, however, when you have other smaller creatures to back it up and you play a spell you can have devastating results! Imagine playing Power Surge and giving all of your creatures +2000 power and then giving them an additional +2000 power with Squadron's effect! That almost guarantees that every one of your creatures will have Double Breaker (unless of course you're sporting a Magris or a 1000 power creature).

This card has some potential and can even get you out of some difficult situations at times. For example, if you have a Sword Horned in the battle zone and you play a spell, it now becomes a 7500 creature for three mana! That can deal with some of the biggest threats out there (outside of those huge Dragons or Monarchs of course!)! It can also assure you that your creatures won't be getting banished by Rock Bite or Tornado Flame as well! Light and Nature work great together and this card is a prime example. This card requires some thought and strategy if you want to build a deck around it but the rewards are right there waiting for you, so why not give it a shot?

Ratings:

Constructed: 3.00/5.00 (There aren't a ton of decks using this card currently but it has a lot of potential to be an amazing card.)
Limited: 3.50/5.00 (A creature that can deal with all of those semi-bigger threats out there and can compete head to head with a rush deck, seems pretty good in limited.)

I hope you enjoyed this week of reviews! Stop out again next week when we cover a whole new list of cards.  Make sure to check out my channel for new content and until next time my fellow Kaijudo Duel Masters, this is Raijinku signing out from the Darkness Civilization, keep calm and game on!
