[AUTO](VC/RC):When placed, COST [Soul Blast (1)], and call up to two unit cards without any [CONT], [ACT], or [AUTO] abilities from your hand to (RC). If you call two cards, turn up to one face down “Storm Element, Cycloned” from your G zone face up, and draw two cards.

Oh man. Man oh man. Limited to 1 as soon as we get the English Release. And to be honest that’s fair since Japan showed us just how bullshit this really is. In the right deck you can just flood the field with vanilla beaters, even triggers and plus…all for Soulblast, so the opponent couldn’t even damage deny to get around it. Being able to unlock GB1 and above skills right off the bat also opened the floodgates to some decks that actually managed to win ON THE FIRST TURN, one being a Calico-based Oracle Think Tank that just kept checking Critical Triggers in addition to big columns. Outside of that there was Hellhard Eight Turbo, recycling and re-stand beating in Ripples…

And that is the sotry as to why this is now at 1. It made Premium, an already stupid bullshit format, even worse. There’s some way to search it still so it’s still a thing, but at least it can’t flood you with sudden plusses anymore.

3/5
