It can have 1900 ATK but it doesn't take much to change that. At least you can use its effect more than once but you have to discard a card to do so. He's at least better than FEΩ since you can Summon him any way you like yet he's restricted to 1 Ice Counter per turn and you lose him to activate his other effect. You can at least use both effects simultaneously but still not a great card. You'll have trouble keeping one on the field let alone two or three! Plus his effect puts him face down in your Spell and Trap Zone, leaving you one defense less.

Both activation requirements really make this card terrible and for all your hard work, you'll probably lose as this card can easily get negated. Odds are that it won't be the same type as another monster but it does come in handy if its a Six Samurai monster. Her stats aren't very impressive but her effect should help with that as any non-Fairy-Type monster loses 500 ATK and DEF plus your Spell and Trap effects can't be negated (except with Jinzo) This card has absolutely no use in any deck since its tributes aren't worth its stats or its effect.

If you are running Psychic-Type monster decks, don't forget this card since some of them require LPs to use their effects, which can cost you in the long run later. Here is yet another unworthy card to be a Secret Rare since it is useless without Lightsworn monsters, which should only be run in a deck just for them. You can at least discard any card you want to summon him and his 2000 ATK is enough to take out Gemini Elves and Vorse Raiders. Chances are you going to summon more tokens than The Tricky card you lost and at least you can tribute the tokens for other monsters or effects but the tokens can't attack.

She has to destroy a monster to even have 1900 ATK when there are monsters out there that already have 1900 ATK like Gemini Elf so use one of them instead. Another wasted Secret Rare slot. He has the "I need another SS monster to get my effect" effect and his stats are enough for him to be removed by Bottomless or regular Trap Hole. He can be useful in WATER decks(and probably should only be used there) but even if you do summon him, he can easily be destroyed by Trap Hole or Bottomless. He has the 2000 DEF that should allow him to get 2 stars. So why doesn't he? You have to pay LPs to keep him out, whether or not you used his other effect.

Most people don't even run Field Spells that power up their monsters so this card generally is useless. Well she is a Tuner monster and does let you temporarily give your Synchro Summoned monster 1000 ATK but not only do you have to pay to use the effect but she has no effects to protect herself. This guy should ONLY be used for Synchro Summoning as its effect isn't worth the effort when Divine Wrath can not only negate the effect but is a better card to use. She's not going to last more than one turn since even a Metal Guardian (1150 ATK) is enough to take her down.

Snatch one of the deadly Monarchs or Summoned Skull right from your opponent's control! Doesn't work while Jinzo or Royal Decree are face up, though. Combo this with DNA Surgery and destroy multiple cards or just take out an opponent's card on the field but you have to summon a Thunder-Type monster to use this. You get to destroy 1 card on the field and draw 1 card but good luck finding decent Fish-Type monsters to use this on. Helps for Lightsworn or DARK decks but is terrible elsewhere.

Stick to Draining Shield instead since it saves your monster and gives your LPs a boost. Where you aren't running Psychic-Type monsters, run a different card instead. Keep this card in GB decks and run Skill Drain elsewhere. Don't run this outside of Lightsworn decks.

Use Sakuretsu Armor or Mirror Force instead as they need nothing but an attacking monster to activate. This card is pretty situational. Sure there are monsters whose DEF exceed its ATK but you won't likely have more than one of them in your deck except for maybe Destiny Hero - Defender. If you happen to have 3 of the better Psychic-Type monsters in your Grave or you're running a Psychic-Type monster deck, then this card isn't too bad but is just horrible elsewhere. If you got 1000 LPs for every monster you control, then this card would have without a doubt gotten a higher rating but since it doesn't, keep this in Psychic-Type monster decks.

Unless Disk Commander makes a graceful revival to the field, this card isn't going to get any play and even with Disk Commander back it won't see much play. It would get a higher rating if it reduced all Battle Damage you take to 0 but it still has some uses like if you would take major damage, this card saves your lifepoints and lets you draw 1 card. Not too bad against cards like Zaborg and Man-Eater Bug but it too has limited uses. Rack-up enough counters on it and you could summon a powerful monster but this card can easily get destroyed.

Lower an opponent's stronger monster to 1000 ATK to easily take it out or make your weaker monster stronger! The downside is its effects depend on your current LPs. Bad outside Batteryman decks. Need I say more? Re-use your Flip-Effect monsters and or put your opponent's monsters face down to remove them with NoC or by taking them out with your own monsters! It can help give your monster a decent boost but that's about it.
