The Mega Tins just dropped very recently and we
got 5 brand new promos for the TCG, and this week we
will review them all. We start off this week with
the best of the new promos, as it will be an Extra
Deck staple in early Link Era, Proxy Dragon.
Proxy Dragon is a Link-2 that requires 2
Monsters, so you can use Tokens and Normal Monsters.
Gofu will be great with this to upgrade into Decode
Talker. Proxy Dragon points Left and Right, which I
have said before that these are great Link Markers
if you summon this in the Main Monster Zone. If a
card(s) you control would be destroyed, you can
destroy a monster that this card points to instead.
Neat little protection effect to maybe get rid of an
XYZ monster who used all of its Overlay Units to
protect another important monster or your whole
board, and you can summon something else from the
Extra Deck. The biggest downside of this card is its
1400 ATK stat, but beggars cannot be choosers.
Early on, this card will be staple, but I can see
it getting powercreeped later into the Link Era.
Advanced Rating: 4/5

We're starting the week off with Proxy Dragon, a
link 2 light Cyberse with 1400 attack and left/right
markers. Proxy can be summoned with any two
monsters.
So, what does it do? If a card you control would
be destroyed, you can destroy something it points to
instead.
It's simple, yet elegant and it's no wonder Proxy
is seeing a lot of play at the moment. Granted it's
only to be used as a stepping stone for larger link
monsters as it's a generic Link monster that can
summon off a scapegoat from the opponent's end
phase. Proxy has other uses, sure, but they haven't
been taken advantage of yet. He's perfect for
opening up main monster zone slots for extra deck
summons and facilitating Link 3/4 plays.
Advanced 3.5/5 He looks like Firewall Dragon's
little sibling.

Who didn't see a Tin Week coming? Well, if you
didn't, you should have, and here we are. Kicking
the week off is Proxy Dragon. Proxy is rather low on
the food chain but is easy to Link Summon, albeit
being weak with only 1400 attack. Light is good too,
and probably one of the best things going for this
card. I see this as a combo card. The effect is very
simple, but useful, if a card (or cards) you control
would be destroyed (by Battle or Effect) you can
destroy a Monster this card points to instead. It
has the perfect arrows for that, being to the left
and right of itself. Plenty of Decks can make use of
this, the only real issue I see, is that with such
low attack, you're probably going to have to get
this off right away, and maybe even by doing so
yourself.
Rating: 2.75/5
Art: 3.5/5
