Subject: Top 10 Overrated and Underrated cards in Labyrinth of Nightmares Jean-Sebastien Girard

---OVERRATED---
 
#10 Jar of Greed
 
This card, as pointed by Retrained_Celtic_Gardian ("Logic suggests that had you not had these cards in your deck to begin with, you would have drawn the cards you got anyway.") will be overrated stupidly for a long time. Until you use Muka Muka, it's virtually useless.
 
#9 Gemini Elf
 
I admit it IS a good card, but it's still slightly overrated. Just like Mechanical Chaser, it will fall prey to Zombyra, Dark Elf and Goblin Attack Force.
 
#8 Offerings to the Doomed
 
Okay, monster removal is good, but this is very dangerous. Most times you will only have 2-3 during a duel, and you WON'T want to use this card.
 
#7 Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer
 
Just like Gemini Elf, this card is overrated for it's effect. Good card, but don't use it just for it's effect, because it's still only 1800 ATK.
 
#6 Dark Necrofear
 
It's just too hard to special summon, until you use Giant Germ. It's effect is nice, but will fall prey to all magic negaters and removers.
 
#5 Bait Doll
 
People forgot this card in favor of Magic Cylinder, United we Stand and Mage Power. But once they notice it, it WILL be overrated. Sure, triggering a Trap Hole, Magic Cylinder or Mirror Force is cool, but think of all those things you would rather have destroyed than triggered: Just Desserts, Ceasefire, Mirror Wall, Waboku, Gravity Bind, Imperial Order, Royal command... You'll have wasted two cards to destroy only one in the end.
 
#4 Vengeful Bog Spirit
 
This is a card that will hurt you in the long run, you can't help it.
 
#3 Royal Command
 
Good, but few deck can survive without Magician of Faith, Mask of Darness and Man-Eater Bug nowadays. It will hurt you in the long run too.
 
#2 The Dark Door
 
See Vengefull Bog Spirit. But it's sidedeck material nonetheless against Barrel Dragon or Maha Vailo decks.
 
#1 Mask of Restrict
 
This card is just way too situationnal, and can only go in a good Weenie Rush deck. It'll cut you away from Jinzo too.
 
---UNDERRATED---
 
#10 The Emperor's Holiday
 
Maha Vailo, Hayabusa Knight, Whita Magical Hats, Fairy Meteor Crush counter...
 
#9 Spiritualism
 
The counter to Imperial Order and so much more...
 
#8 Destruction Punch
 
Labyrinth Wall and Wall of Illusions' best friend.
 
#7 Aqua Spirit & Garuda the Wind Spirit
 
Those cards are surprising... Switch little face-up flip-effects to attack mode, or big baddies to defense! They both can be fetched with Witch of the Black Forest whenever needed. Aqua is best used with unfortunate Star Boys and Cure Mermaid, or anything you have dumped just for this. Garuda is for Princess of Tsurugi, 4-starred ladybug, Sonic Bird...
 
#6 Jowgen the Spiritualist
 
This card counter: Shallow Grave, Monster Reborn, Cyber Jar, Spear Cretin...
Exemple: Cyber Jar is flipped, you bring it face-up, then activarte the discard (because it can be any moment...), and destroy ALL monsters on the field. Or if you attack Spear cretin, bring it face-up from the grave, then discard.
 
#5 Bazoo the Soul-Eater
 
This cards is godly. Reach 1900, 2200 or, still unreached for level 4s, 2500! Can also trim down cards from the grave that you don't need/want there.
 
#4 Chosen One
 
This card is basically a dumper. To be used with Gate Guardian pieces and such, then Black Pendants. Also send cards in the grave to be fetched back.
 
#3 Fire Princess/Dancing Fairy
 
FINALLY cards you CAN combo with Ceasefire... Lp gain is now a working tactic with Fire Princess, Solemn Wishes, Mysterious Puppeteer...
 
#2 Marie the Fallen One
 
This card just YELL to be used with Tribute to the Doomed, Delinquent Duo, Magic Jammer, rituals etc. Then you get life points AND you can combo it with Fire Princess.
 
#1 Tornado Bird
 
This cards owns: Gravity Bind, Imperial Order, Messenger of Peace etc. this is just one of the best m/t removal out: it's the only one that will remove at least two of your opponent's m/t form the field WITHOUT HARM TO YOU!
