ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: It may have use in one deck (LP Gain) but that doesn't mean I'll rate it higher because that's one deck for formerly the strongest of the God Cards with terrible effects.
JUMP-EN044
Card Type: Synchro Monster
Card Info Dark End Dragon
DARK / Dragon-Type Synchro / Level 8 / ATK 2600 / DEF 2100
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner DARK monsters
Once per turn, you can have this card lose 500 ATK and DEF, and send 1 monster your opponent controls to the Graveyard.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: A former SJ Prize Card but now at a better value because his stats drop each time his effect activates and he's non-Tuner specific but not too specific and can send the opponent's monster regardless of position.
JUMP-EN043
Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info Malefic Stardust Dragon
DARK / Dragon / Level 8 / ATK 2500 / DEF 2000
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned, except by removing from play "Stardust Dragon" from your Extra Deck.

If there is no face-up Field Spell Card on the field, destroy this card.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: The problem with these Malefic monsters is that they self-destruct if there isn't a Field Spell (much like the Earthbound Immortals) and what's worse, only it can attack and you cannot have more than one out.

During the End Phase, the monster equipped with this card by this card's effect is Special Summoned to your opponent's side of the field in face-up Defense Position.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: He basically converts into a Goblin Attack Force with his effect and he can't take face up Attack Position monsters so he won't likely gain much ATK at all.
JUMP-EN041
Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info The Tyrant Neptune
WATER / Reptile / Level 10 / ATK 0 / DEF 0

ULTRA RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: Tribute Summon him with Hardened Armed Dragon and another monster to really make use of this card, especially since it won't be affected by effects that destroy cards!

Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info Golem Dragon
EARTH / Dragon / Level 4 / ATK 200 / DEF 2000
Your opponent cannot select another Dragon-Type monster you control as an attack target.
ULTRA RARE

Championship Series 2010

● During battle between this attacking card and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: I feel sorry for the ones that went to win at that tournament only to find that they're getting lousy prizes for all their hard work and this guy is worst of all.
YCSW-EN002
Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info Darklord Superbia
DARK / Fairy / Level 8 / ATK 2900 / DEF 2400
When this card is Special Summoned from the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Fairy-Type monster from your Graveyard, except "Darklord Superbia".
SUPER RARE
Rating: 1
Comments: Not in the least bit superb by my standards since he does nothing when Normal Summoned and with only 2900 ATK, can get run over by BEWD.
YCSW-EN001
Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info Darklord Asmodeus
DARK / Fairy / Level 8 / ATK 3000 / DEF 2500
This card cannot be Special Summoned from the Deck or Graveyard. Once per turn, you can send 1 Fairy-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard.

"Asmo Token" cannot be destroyed by card effects. "Deus Token" cannot be destroyed by battle.
SUPER RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: I consider this one to be the best of the three since it creates two tokens, one indestructible in battle, the other indestructible by card effects but this guy must be Special Summoned from the hand.
Shonen Jump

When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, add 1 "Earthbound Immortal" monster from your Deck to your hand.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: A pretty powerful Synchro Monster! He does have a minimal downside as he has specific Synchro Materials that he needs but once he's out, you have all Level 6 or lower DARK monsters at your disposal, literally! 
JUMP-EN038
Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info Cyber Eltanin
LIGHT / Machine / Level 10 / ATK ? / DEF ?

When this card is Special Summoned, send all other face-up monsters on the field to the Graveyard.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Bringing this guy out is a pretty big gamble since you'll likely control other monsters out and you'd risk having this guy Bottomless'd from the game as you will try to make him as powerful as possible. 
JUMP-EN037
Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info Obelisk the Tormentor
DIVINE / Divine-Beast / Level 10 / ATK 4000 / DEF 4000

Comments: A very powerful monster, especially if Tribute Summoned with Hardened Armed Dragon and he retains most of his effects from the TV show!

WC10-EN003
Card Type: Synchro Monster
Card Info Stygian Sergeants
DARK / Fiend-Type Synchro / Level 5 / ATK 2200 / DEF 1800

When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard, it can gain 800 ATK (until the end of the Battle Phase) and attack once again in a row.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Bringing this guy out with 2 monsters may seem pretty bad for a Level 5 monster but if it destroys a monster, it gets 800 ATK and can attack again yet the ATK gain isn't permanent.
WC10-EN002
Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info Stygian Security
DARK / Fiend-Type Tuner / Level 1 / ATK 100 / DEF 600
When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, Special Summon 1 Level 1 Fiend-Type monster from your Deck.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: It's really only use is being a Tuner as there really aren't many good monsters that fit its requirements.

Card Type: Effect Monster
Card Info Samurai Sword Baron
EARTH / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 1200
Once per turn, you can select 1 Defense Position monster your opponent controls. Change it to face-up Attack Position.
ULTRA RARE
Rating: 2
Comments: Since it will most likely only survive one turn, it will probably get to use its effect once, which isn't too bad but it's a still pretty bad card.
Duelist Pack Collection Tin 2010
DPCT-EN004
Card Type: Trap Card
Card Info Starlight Road
Normal Trap
Activate only when an effect is activated that would destroy 2 or more cards you control. Negate the effect and destroy that card. Then, you can Special Summon 1 "Stardust Dragon" from your Extra Deck.
SECRET RARE
Rating: 3
Comments: If it could be activated when 1 or more of your cards would be destroyed, then I'd certainly give it a higher rating but it Special Summons Stardust Dragon from your Extra Deck free of charge!
