 | Interdimensional Beast, Metallica Phoenix
 Here's ANOTHER G-Unit for Gear Chronicle wrapping the 
						week up. The Phoenix has Time Leap which activates on 
						attacking the Vanguard, flipping another G-Unit face-up 
						to use. Which is kind of a dick move to newbies who 
						would like to Stride a little more than ONCE A GAME, but 
						let's pretend they don't exist. How does the Phoenix 
						stack up?
 
 I guess that this review is essentially me reviewing 
						Time Leap as a mechanic, and my verdict is: it's really 
						pretty shit. It's basically a very elaborate Murakumo in 
						that you're only using Time Leap to save hand by using 
						rested units to get attacks in, but you will have to 
						call the units SOMETIME, especially if you need to 
						Counterblast to start a Time Leap, otherwise you're just 
						spending resources for advantage you don't even keep. Or 
						you could just use it to chain attacks, in which case 
						you have a gambit that Nova Grappler does except much 
						better and without needing to take as many liberties 
						with the deck.
 
 In this case, yeah, it's CB-free and doesn't need to 
						hit, so that's fine, but it's not important enough to 
						play in bulk until Time Leap becomes better supported.
 
 Should only really be run if you need Chronojet Dragon's 
						GB2 early for whatever goddamn reason. 1 copy of at 
						best.
 
 2.5/5

 | And final card of the week is Metallica Phoenix.
 Anyway, another Chronojet-centric Stride that Time Leaps 
						a unit on attack by flipping a unit in your G-Zone face 
						up.  Pretty nifty for various tricks, plus it 
						doesn't rely on a Persona Flip, that's always nice.
 
 I'd say find room in your G-Zone for this.  What 
						you take out is up to you.
