RAMPAGE, SUPER RARES RANKED:

Another tip for the week, this one is my personal rankings for the super rares 
from the Rampage of Super Warriors. This is based on how well I think one would 
play in certain decks, and I'll say why:

No #5:
S5. Earthstomp Giant
Nature / Giant
5 Mana / 8000
Double Breaker.  Whenever this creature attacks, return all creatures from your 
mana zone to your hand.

My fifth and last ranked card for today. Looking at the power, you can see that 
your pulling out an 8000 attacker on possibly your fifth turn. It's a double 
breaker, but the nasty effect says you have to return all creatures from your 
mana zone to your hand. Depending on how you play, that's somewhere between 40-80% 
of your mana gone. The speed of mana acceleration of mono-nature is somewhat 
comforting, but still not reasurring enough. It's

not an impossible card to play, but when I was offered my Terror Pit for one

of these, I rejected the offer. Terror Pit could've fetched me more anyway. 
And can anyone see a water (probably bouncing) deck screwing you over with 
this card?

No #4:
S2. Chaos Fish
Water / Gel Fish
7 Mana / 1000+
This creature gets +1000 power for each other water creature you have in the

battle zone.  Whenever this creature attacks, you may draw a card for each of 
you other water creatures in the battle zone.

A mixed card, for sure. It's strength is based on numbers, but to last that 
long with a water deck you need stall and probably some blockers. When you play 
this late game at 7 mana, you've probably only got 2-3 creatures on the

field. A 4000 creature like this isn't tapped though, but you'll probably lose 
one creature per turn, and play 1 or 2 if your lucky. But you draw each

time you attack right? Good luck, you'll probably only make one attack - if that. 
With this card, it's a painful way of makng a 2-3 card draw. Stick with Brain 
Serum for now.

No #3:
S3. Giriel, Ghastly Warrior
Darkness / Demon Command
8 Mana / 11000
Double Breaker

It's really nothing special, an 8 mana drop for 11000 power. Maybe the easier but 
longer way of getting an Ultracide Worm out? There isn't anything

about this card that is great, late game finisher and attacker? You could fit this 
in maybe a dark/light deck, if your good.

No #2:
S4. Garkago Dragon
Fire / Armored Dragon
7 Mana / 6000+
Double Breaker.  This creature gets +1000 power for each other fire creature

you have in the battle zone.

Down to the last 2, and a very hard decision was putting this as the second ranked 
card. It's a basic double breaker, and it gets +1000 power for each other fire 
creature in the battle zone, and as I said with Chaos Fish would be about 2-3. 
Thats pushing a 9000 double breaker, but versatile because you

can evolve it into the new rampage evo creature for armored dragons. Forget the name. 
Like all the other cards, it takes a certain deck to play this in,

certainly not a fire rush though.

No #1:
S1. Miar, Comet Elemental
Light / Angel Command
8 Mana / 11500
Double Breaker

Only 500 more power than the first card, Miar is the most powerful card to date in 
the english Duel Masters game. Move over Ultracide, this 8 mana for 11500 is not 
actually a great card, but being able to double break a shield and then be able to 
stand up almost anything else is good. Then terror pit, spiral gate, or even death 
smoke on the first turn happens. OUCH!! I actually think I'll stick to my weaker 
but better equipped creatures.

My final evaluation of the super rare Rampage cards are, they are very bad compared 
to the ones from base set and evo. You can't slot any of these cards in a good deck 
for their civilisation, your gonna need a deck that fits around these creatures 
perfectly.
