Counteroffensive Knight, Suleiman
So, what we have here is a Brave unit that can become a
12K beater if you have Altmile as your Vanguard and can
call a grade 2 unit from the deck with a different name.
Well, nice to see 12K beaters with other skills, even if
it's more conditional than other 12K beaters.
But it's still more of the same with G-era Royals.
Searching attackers and not boosters.
This is why G-era royals, Jewel Knights, and Seekers are
all so much better, they can get more.

Counteroffensive Knight, Suleiman
I did say that the rarity distribution in G Booster 6
was borked in my last article, and this week tells us
why. Suleiman here has two GB1 skills. One's Brave: it
gains 3k when the Vanguard's an Altmile, and for its
other GB1 skill, when it attacks the Vanguard, you CB1
and discard 1 card from your hand to call a Grade 2 from
the deck and grant it 2k.
Inevitably this will have to be directly compared to
Knight of Twin Sword. Both fetch a Grade 2 from the
deck, except Twin Sword works out as a +1 or a +0 with
another attack set up, for no other cost than a CB1.
Suleiman's discard requirements kill it. It's a +0 wash
at best that converts a card in your hand, 5k shield
average, into a unit committed to the field. So it can't
work to save shield in the hand unlike Twin Sword. It
doesn't matter if this can set up Brave during your turn
or not, because a good Brave deck ought to use Brave as
a defensive option like Scouting Owl, not wantonly sack
shield for a small amount of offense, especially not
against decks that don't have to attack in order to
murder card advantage. Pretty sure just playing normally
will net you the 3 card maximum in the hand anyway and
Knight of Power Charge exists.
I guess this could be used in conjunction with Twin
Sword, but turning the deck into Spike Brothers or Nova
Grappler isn't what it's good at and shouldn't really be
encouraged. Plus it makes the deck pretty greedy on
Counterblast until Sonicgal comes out in English.
Didn't deserve its RRR rarity. Does what it does
decently well, but I wouldn't call this a mainstay.
3/5
