Stats:
Being a Level 3 is probably the best-you can be
summoned without tribute (normally) and are low
enough to slide under Gravity Bind.
Cobraman
Sakuzy is an Earth
Reptile. There are a few cards out that can
make use of Reptiles, and several that can help
Earth cards. Good thing too, as the only upside
to it’s 800 ATK and
1400 DEF is that it means it can be searched for
by Witch of the Black Forest and Sangan, or
pulled out with Giant Rats effect.
Card Text (Effects):
So, why make such a sad monster? It has a
decent trick-if it is flip-summoned, your
opponent has to flip all his/her set Spell/Trap
cards, let you see (of course), then flip
them back down. To
make it a little more useful, the card has an
effect to let flip it face down once per turn
during your Mainphase.
So if you can keep it alive, your opponent can’t
surprise you with set cards.
Uses/Combinations:
Again, best I can think of is a Messenger of
Peace or Gravity Bind decks-with that and maybe
Chorus of Sanctuary on the field, your opponent
would be hard pressed to kill it, at least
through battle. Of course, you could use
Sasuke Samurai # 2
so you didn’t have to worry about those cards,
or summon Jinzo, but both of those have their
downsides too.
Ratings
Casual:
3/5-It might be decent for Messenger of Peace or
Gravity Bind based decks.
Constructed:
2/5-Same deck concepts, just owning up to the
fact they probably won’t stand a chance.
Limited:
2.5/5-Stats are okay here-might help once, maybe
twice.
Summary
Not a bad card, but it could have used a higher
DEF value.
