Seriously.

Anyway, this card actually isn’t bad. The ridiculous lanes he makes means Accel 2 can be used in the deck without much penalty (and gives NG the much needed draw power it sorely deserved), and actually combines very nicely with Spinning Valiant as a way to munch on the opponent’s hand. Also he’s a Beast Deity and thus gels with existing Beast Deity support, up to and including the base Azure Dragon.

His build is Critical-trigger centric. Nothing else decently works thanks to the lanes and the pressure you generate. So Illuminal is nothing explosive, but the grindy game before Spinning Valiant is dropped is very nice indeed.

3.25/5
