As boring as Egorg was, it's got nothing on this. Holy Squire Dragon needs an Alfred heart, and as an ACT skill, you G Persona Blast once per turn to unlock all your locked cards and then give all the rear-guards you have 2k until the end of the turn. It also gains a GB3 skill to power itself up by 3k for all of your rear-guards on the field.

 

Eeeeeeh. Well, first off, clan hosing is fucking annoying, thank you for screwing Link Joker again, Bushi. As for every other matchup? 2k to all RGs means a 16k column will be 20k. So for any noticeable difference in shield, for an Alfred deck it has to be a spare G3 and Ahmes to be 17k+ and make 21k columns. The GB3 skill is basically a watered down Saint Blow Dragon. So make the VG column bigger (which is pretty redundant since the original column meant PG or NG territory anyway) and with the right column, 5k shield more per RG attack.

 

The Alfred deck is basically trying to copy Altmile except it traded in good explosive plays for watered-down non Generation Break skills. Do not want. G Neo Nectar outclasses this thing.

 

2.5/5

So, what do we have here?  A Stride that works with Alfred?  Awesome.  Note that it says "Alfred", not "King of Knights Alfred" meaning it works with Alfred Early and Seeker Alfred.
 
Anyway, this can work as both the first and second stride you have.  Persona Flip, unlock all your rear guards, and give a nice +2000 power boost to each rear guard.
 
At GB3, this unit gets +3000 for each of your rear guards.
 
So, a nice fluff power boost for the first stride and a nice Alfred-like power boost when used as the 2nd Stride.
 
Sadly, unless you're going against Link Joker, the better bet would be to just use Saint Blow Dragon, since that can at least get a critical.
 
Still, not bad, overall, just, outside of Alfred, not much use for it, seeing as Samuel, Saint Blow Dragon and Gablade all exist and do better things than this does.
