...Really? It's Kagero week and we don't even review the two best ones this week? What is this bullshit.
 
Oh well. We kick things off with a...Gear Chronicle G Guardian? K...kay. Uh, anyway. When you defend with Raphanna, you send one of your Grade 1+ rear-guards back to the deck, call a Grade 0 in its place, and then Raphanna gains 10k shield.
 
Well, I guess it's more shield than Uluru? Being a 25k shield without an extra minus is pretty nice. One the other hand, the only unit you would want to reasonably turn into a Grade 0 is the vanguard's booster if you introduced a Fate Rider to it on the last turn or Upstream Dragon-ed into it. So it requires a bit of juggling and certainly doesn't really work as a substitute to Uluru, just as a supplement.
 
Only used for situations where the 5k shield is make-or-break. Otherwise most people would rather have the simpler Uluru.
 
3/5

Gears have another pretty dope G-Guard under their sleeve. Cycle a unit back to the deck that you had to call from hand, like a Gigi or Drain-Valve Dragon, so you can time leap into it again to reuse its on-call effect. You then will either call Ur-Watar, or, if you're running two starters in your deck, call one of those. 

This card basically replaces your Scryew in your G-Zone, if you play Gears. It's a 1-of, unless you really think you need 2 25k shields. Otherwise, just fall back on Uluru cycling units back into your deck. (What is Legion?)

3.5/5
