Comments: Double Summon does this card's job far better and doesn't care what your opponent has out. It's also not restrained to an Archetype.

RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Having Adhara's 1st effect is an okay start and so is its 2000 DEF but since you can't bring out more than one of these guys by their effects in a single turn (as you'll already control an Effect Monster), it's pretty specific on its uses.
RIRA-EN012

RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: The effect can apply even if you control Gemini monsters that are treated a Normal Monsters or regular Normal Monstetrs but it doesn't have a whole lot to offer.

SUPER RARE

Rating: 1
Comments: Behaving like a Spirit monster makes it just as bad as they are, if not worse. This guy has no potent effects to make use of.
RIRA-EN008

RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Fortune Ladies never had the success to do well in tournaments and very few people used them. This diva is many years too late and has bad effects to boot.

You can only use this effect of "Dinowrestler Rambrachio" once per turn. Your opponent cannot target other "Dinowrestler" monsters you control with card effects.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: What's the point in bringing it out in Defense Mode when it has 0 DEF to begin with? It's totally useless, even to defend your LP.
RIRA-EN006
Dinowrestler Martial Ankylo
EARTH / Dinosaur / Level 2 / ATK 1000 / DEF 0
During damage calculation, if another "Dinowrestler" monster you control battles an opponent's monster (Quick Effect): You can send this card from your hand or field to the GY; that monster you control cannot be destroyed by that battle, also the ATK of your opponent's battling monster is halved at the end of the Damage Step.

COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Shrink can do this guy's job far better as you don't even need to control any monsters to use it and can even be used when your opponent attempts to get rid of it.
RIRA-EN005
DMZ Dragon
DARK / Dragon / Level 4 / ATK 0 / DEF 2000
Once per turn: You can target 1 Level 4 or lower Dragon monster in your GY and 1 Dragon monster you control; equip that monster in your GY to that monster on the field as an Equip Spell that makes it gain 500 ATK.

COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: The effect is 100% ill-advised because it's pretty bad as a whole. The 2000 DEF on the other hand is worthwhile to an extent.
RIRA-EN004

WATER / Cyberse / Level 2 / ATK 800 / DEF 400
You can send this card from your hand to the GY, then target 1 "Marincess" monster you control; it gains 800 ATK until the end of this turn. You can use this effect of "Marincess Sea Star" up to twice per turn.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: There's never a point in running a monster whose effect offers a temporary boost as low as 800 when we have plenty of cards that can offer a permanent boost of 1000 or more.
RIRA-EN003*
Marincess Sea Horse
WATER / Cyberse / Level 3 / ATK 1400 / DEF 1000

ULTRA RARE

Comments: The last effect is the only remotely useful one and that's only if you have a Marincess Link Monster out with a spot on your field desginated by it.
RIRA-EN002
Cross Debug
DARK / Cyberse / Level 2 / ATK 900 / DEF 600
If you control 2 or more Link Monsters: You can Special Summon this card from your hand.

COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Not only is the 1st effect situational but so is the 2nd effect and its stats aren't useful either.
RIRA-EN001

During damage calculation, if your Cyberse monster is attacked (Quick Effect): You can discard this card; you take no battle damage from that battle.
