*AISHA MYRIAD*
I almost put this card in as having a rating of 3.5
or higher...but then I began to think about it in
more detail.
You have to overturn items, which I would guess make
up 40% to 60% of the average players deck. So, just
to make things simple, lets say 50% of your deck is
items. That means, of the four cards revealed,
you'll get maybe two items. Of said items, you need
a good bonus in the arena that you're dueling in.
Depending on how your deck is set up, that could be
a fair-sized longshot.
With all of this stacked against you, I'm going to
rate this card at 1.5, with a possibility of being
2.5 if your deck uses a ton of items that are good
(+2 or better) in at least three of your stats. |

Aisha Myriad
Item – Myriad – Light
Str -; Agi -; Mag -; Int -
Bank – 3
To play this in a contest, you need a Light Neopet.
When you play this card in a contest, reveal the top
4 cards of your deck. You get the stat bonuses and
contest effects of all Items there. (They get
discarded at the end of the contest.) Put all of the
other cards on the bottom of your deck.
This certainly is one of the more interesting items,
in my opinion. It seems like a really good idea,
since it can cause you to be able to in effect play
4 item cards in one contest. However, it could also
end up wasting your item for the contest, since you
could end up with the top four cards not being items
at all.
There are definite pros and cons to this card. One
good thing is that the cards not used (as in the
non-Item cards) get put on the bottom of the Deck
and not discarded. However, that can also be a bad
thing, since now the cards are in the worst possibly
place if you need one (for say a combo). The fact
that it only requires a Light Neopet is good, since
light neopets are pretty common and have many cards
that they can use. It has a decent bank, in case you
don’t want to use its ability as an item, you can at
least have a decent bank.
Unless you’re really playing like a book deck where
you have better odds at knowing what’s coming up and
can get back discarded items, or you’re playing like
90% of your deck as items, this probably isn’t that
great of a card. And this card is absolute death if
you try to use it in a combo deck (unless this is
part of the combo…somehow).

Aisha Myriad
Item/myriad/light
bank/3
To play this card in
a contest, you need a light neopet.
When you play this
card in a contest, reveal the top four cards of
your deck.You get the bonouses and contest
effects off all the items there.( They
getdiscarded at the end of the contest.) Put all
other cards at the bottom off your deck.
This a good card
when you means of getting lots of items on the
top off your deck. The major downside is that if
you have any good cards at the top of your deck
they go to the bottom of it.
I'd give this card
4out of five as it can get rid of some of your
best cards.

1/234 Foil
This item is somewhat popular now, mostly in
decks that recycle items using Scroll of
Recall and Kauvara's Potion. The only
problem with this strategy is that you're
pretty likely to either deck yourself or
suffer from most of your items drawn
from Aisha Myriad only being +0 or +1. The
reason, of course, is that almost all cards
with a bank value of 4 have some pretty
crappy stat boosts. But don't worry, there
is an answer. That answer is Neggs. Using
Neggs, Scrolls, Kauveras, and Aisha Myriad
would be an interested deck, once you manage
to get your myriad machine working. Quick
bank decks would be your worst enemy.
Ratings:
I can't say I'd use this card in a
tournament deck, but it can be quite a bit
of fun otherwise, and has some collector
value. I'll go with a 3.3 of 5
