Araquiel's Top 10 Common/Uncommon Cards from the Base Set

 

Top Ten Common and Uncommon Cards

 

You probably know that Commons and Uncommons are the most frequently found cards in the game. That doesn't mean they're bad though.

 

10. Candy Drop

 

Wow, can't be blocked. If you can protect it, it can eat away at your opponent's shields quickly.

 

9. Ultimate Force

 

Quick mana is ALWAYS good. ALWAYS. But many people run Water/Nature decks, and Water's card drawing and Nature's mana can drain your deck quickly. But nice if you want to get lots of mana to swarm your opponent with tons of creatures.

 

8. Ruby Grass

 

Another card that just shines. Untap it at the end of each of your turns. Good, because it can attack, get untapped, and block an attack from your opponent.

 

7. Onslaughter Gigantos

 

5000 for 3 mana. Good. Drawback is, you have to put one card from the mana zone in the graveyard when he hits the field. If you use a Fire/Nature deck, that drawback isn't as bad.

 

6. Super Explosive Volcanodon

 

6000 while it attacks, for 4 mana? Nice deal if you ask me. If you play a ton of fast mana, your opponent can barely do anything to stop him.

 

5. Senatine Jade Tree

 

I like this. 4000 blocker for three mana? Its downside is that it can't attack players, but it can just attack a weak monster that's giving you trouble, like a Candy Drop.

 

4. Mighty Shouter

 

Now, is this a nice creature or what? When he's sent to the Graveyard, you can put him in your mana zone instead. This is a nasty little suprise for those Fire and Dark creature destruction decks. His weakness is that Water decks will just bounce him back to your hand.

 

3. Bronze-Arm Tribe

 

This is a good card for fast mana, and who doesn't want some quick mana? You could combo it with a Pangaea's song for some more speedy mana. Anything that lets you get out one of your essential cards quickly is good. At the very least, after he's summoned, you can send him to attack your opponent, hopefully breaking a shield.

 

2. Brain Serum

 

Drawing more cards is always nice. If there's something like King Depthcon or Gran Gure a couple of cards down, you can get it that much quicker. Shield Trigger also helps.

 

1. Spiral Gate

 

Now this is a VERY good card. For two mana, return any creature in the battle zone to its owner's hand. You have a 14000 Bolshack Dragon out now? Spiral Gate. Shield Trigger only makes it better. If you're running a Water or part-Water deck, use 4 of these. It's that good.
