Subject: Dark Crisis Preview-The Rise of the Demons by Supreme_Seraphim

Hello fellow duelists! It's me again, Supreme_Seraphim. As distressing or 
joyous as it may sem to you, I did a lil background research on our next 
North American set die December/ january, Dark Crisis. This set would be 
the combined sets of Power of Guardians and Threat of the Demon World in 
Japanese.

- With Dark Crisis, we would be introduced to 2 new monster types that we 
can build decks upon: Demons and Guardians. These Demon monsters are 
basically Fiend types, but Fiends of a whole new genre. These Fiends 
monsters , for one, greatly resemble chess pieces, as u will see in my 
preview of them in these article. These new fiends are also backed up by 
their own Field card, The Lair of the Ten-Thousand Demon Lords.Lastly, i'd 
like to mention that these Fiends effects require the assistance of a 
die,and LP paymets every turn.

card with [Demon] in its name with a level less than that card from your 
deck and put it into your hand.

remodeled and has been given his very own effect, and new atwork too!
