Saikyo Cardfighter R

Dreamy Axel, Milward The only GR card we didn't cover this Fighter's Collection. As is pretty standard for Pale Moon, her skill is Magia. A GB2 Magia to be exact: Soulblast 1, flip a G Zone card, and then you call two units from the soul. The called units gain 4k and go back to the soul when the turn ends. Then, for every Milward you have in the G Zone face-up, choose a unit, and whenever any of the chosen units hit the vanguard, you can call a card from the soul over one of your rear-guards.   A lot going on, so let's break it down. As GB2, how does this go? Late in the game you're looking to grant the 4k to two 17k+ columns so more guard is forced, or just on one column that's 18k+ for another whole 10k guard. There's also the on-hit pressure to consider for the potential of more attacks, which is pretty neat too, I suppose.   Assuming your main G3 is Harri, the calling is going to be pretty redundant already as you've already got Peryton, Paratrooper, Cat Knight in Boots, etc to call a board. So you're only using her for the extra column forming and on-hit pressure. As for said on-hit pressure, that late in the game, if the opponent has a decent hand, you're not looking to use the skill to chain attack unless your columns are REALLY good, so really, her full potential only comes into play when you use a Pale Moon deck that ISN'T Harri. Closest one that comes to mind is Silver Thorns, and only because of Upright Lion for largely the same shenanigans.   Sucks that she requires you open with Mephisto to get the most out of her though. But if you're willing to forgive that (because to be honest the other options aren't brilliant I guess, so it doesn't hurt) then sure, she's got potential.   3/5

Dreamy Axel, Milward I personally feel this helps out Silver Thorns the most, as Harri and his Generation Break support do a fine job of making a full board by themselves, and Nightmare Dolls have their own dedicated Stride. Silver Thorns build up their soul faster, so they wont care about the soul blast in Milward's cost. The on-hit pressure to the rearguards is nice, as long as your soul is built up enough to call suitable attackers. Call all the Zelmas! In addition, she's a Magia unit, so the things you call can go back into the soul, so Silver Throrns and Nightmare Dolls can dodge full column locks from Messiah players like Harri can. (Chaos Breaker still doesn't care though. Kagero's Set 7 G-Guardians also don't care. rip.) Get 4 if you play a non-Harri deck to simulate some of his dodging capabilities, and still get 4 if you play Harri. She does wonders when pared with Mephisto and his effect's requirements. 4/5
