Dark Dragon, Spectral Blaster "Diablo"
Here we go, the HYPE card. Spectral Blaster Diablo is a
GB2 ACT skill that requires a Soulblast 1, a flipping of
one face-down G Unit, and the sacrifice of a rear-guard,
but for that turn, after Spectral Blaster finishes
attacking the Vanguard, you can Counterblast 2 and
retire 2 rear-guards to stand him back up, at the cost
of him losing two Drive Checks for the next attack. And
after you've paid the cost for his ACT skill, if the
heart is Diablo, you can call a Grade 1 from the deck.
So not only do generic Shadow Paladin get a more
reliable finisher in conjunction with Phantom Blaster
Diablo, we get a card that works absolutely perfectly
with the existing Diablo cards. Actively being able to
search perfect sacrifice targets such as Charon 2.0 or
toolbox the best field for the job is what makes this
card good. Hell, I'd shoot for a bit unbalanced in
Diablo decks. You still get 3 Drive Checks initially,
then you pay the cost sacrificing Charon or David if
it's still there, then the second attack forces a -2 at
least from the opponent (Perfect Guard the minimum) and
you get another Drive Check. So you just reinforced your
hand by 4 cards and only needed to initially lose one
rear-guard that cannot be used to guard with.
Still not a 4-of given you still need 2 Aurageyser (for
both of your Diablo Grade 3's GB2) and 4 Phantom Blaster
should things go a bit south, but a powerful card that
needs to be gotten quickly.

Dark Dragon, Spectral Blaster "Diablo"
Spectral Duke Dragon, is that you?
Obviously meant to help Blaster Dark "Diablo", but it
comes with Vortimer "Diablo", and if you remember
Spectral Duke Dragon, you remember the ride chain had
Vortimer, so, yay!
Anyway, what do you do, SDBD?
SB1, Retire a Rear-Guard, Persona Flip and GB3, huh?
So, obviously you can use this or Phantom Blaster
"Diablo" as your 2nd stride. Yay for consistency!
Then at GB3, CB2 and retire 2 rear guards and this gets
-2 drive check and restands and with a "Diablo" heart it
calls a grade 1 unit from the deck.
Well, that's not good at all, right? I mean, it's
JUST Spectral Duke Dragon all over again, but Shadow
Paladins, especially Ren's, don't generate that much
advantage at all. No way this is any good...
Now, if you can't tell, that was complete sarcasm.
This is meant to wear out your opponent's hand defenses
and then you can finish them off with Phantom Blaster
"Diablo".
So, yes, get 4 and run 4. Gods this is going to be
expensive, same with Vortimer.
