What's up, you guys?! It's time to end our first week of Set 11 cards with one of the most sought after cards of the set...

Dauntless Drive Dragon
Power: 11000
Grade 3
Clan: Kagero
Race: Flame Dragon
[AUTO] Limit Break 4 (This ability is active if you have four or more damage):When a «Kagerō» rides this unit, choose your vanguard, that unit gets [Power]+10000 and "[AUTO](VC):[Choose three cards from your hand, and discard them] At the end of the battle that this unit attacked, if this unit has not become [Stand] during that turn, you may pay the cost. If you do, [Stand] this unit." until end of turn.
[AUTO](VC):When this unit attacks, if the number of rear-guards you have is more than your opponent's, this unit gets [Power]+2000 until end of that battle.
[CONT](VC/RC): Lord (If you have a unit without a same clan as this unit, this unit cannot attack)

...Dauntless is definitely a card that is definitely feared once its Break Ride goes off. Once activated, it gives the new Vanguard 10,000 power and a very annoying ability where, if he hasn't Stood up earlier in the turn, then by discarding 3 cards, you get to re-Stand your Vanguard poising it for another attack and another Twin Drive. Now, the most obvious combo for this is with Dragonic Overlord The End as you would let Dauntless' skill go off first to re-Stand then let The End's skill go off once it would hit the second time to Persona Blast and stand it up again. The anime dubs this as the "Nevaendo"...and personally, I think that sums it rather nice as it makes room for a crazy amount of benefits. With this in mind, there are other options that Dauntless can combine with, like with Amber Dragon, Eclipse. Eclipse is a unit where, if you Counterblast 2, it gains an effect where if Eclipse hits, then you get to retire 2 of your opponent's rear-guards. With Dauntless, even if you miss the first time, you get a second chance with the Break Ride, and if you hit the first time, then odds are, you'll be able to get the effect off twice, which wipes out, at worst, all but one of their rear-guards, but most of the time will just wipe their field clean should a Double Eclipse hit. Other excellent choices are Dragon Monk, Goku and Embodiment of Victory, Aleph as they are able to apply pressure to begin with, and with Dauntless, they gain even more pressure with the Break Ride.

Overall, if there was a money card of the set, then this one along with another certain card are on the top.

Rating: 5/5
Art: 5/5 (Kageros and their awesome artwork!)
Next Time: Sleep...Pokemon...work...Pokemon...repeat.

Go Rogue...Go Pro!
...and DON'T be a Sackboy!!!
