Welcome back to another edition of Pojo.com's Card of the Day! Today we're taking a closer look at a blocker that, at times, may seem like it never wants to stay banished! Let's get started with Man o' Warden:

Type: Creature

Power:
4000

(You may tap this creature to change an enemy creature's attack to this creature.)
Guard (This creature can't attack.)
Clone Swarm-
When this creature is banished, you may put a creature named Man o' Warden from your hand into the battle zone.

Man o' Warden (Warden for the rest of the review), is a Level 4 Cyber Virus with 4000 power. It is extremely limited in terms of how it can be beneficial to you for a few reasons: It's a Cyber Virus. There are currently no evolutions or forms of support for Cyber Viruses at this point in the game. It's a Blocker with 4000 power. We have Frogzooka who is also a Blocker with 5000 power! Warden also has Guard, so don't expect it to be pulling shenanigans like Squeaky from Gloom Hollow.

What really sets this card aside from other Blockers, is its ability to replicate. If it dies in any way, you can place another copy safely in the battle zone ready to block another attack! Yes, it will even get around Infernus's Decree!

Probably the biggest downfall of this card is that it doesn't allow you to play it from the deck like "Reborn Tengu" for you Yugi players out there. If it did, I feel it would have more viability than it currently does. Being only allowed to run three copies of any one card can be restricting as it is but there's a good chance that one of these cards is either in your shield zone or in your deck. The only viable way to really get this card to work is to use it in a Darkness and Water deck. By using cards like Dark Return, Grave Scrounger, or Megaria the Collector, you can continually recycle this blocker... but why would you want to put that much effort in when you can just run another alternative blocker?

Ratings:

Constructed: 1.75/5.00 (Unless you can find a better and more efficient way to continuously return this card to your hand, I don't expect this card to be winning any tournaments or any awards in the near future.)

Limited: 3.00/5.00 (Blockers are a little bit limited in this format and being able to run unlimited copies of a card in your deck makes this card worth considering and makes it a more active card.)

Make sure to stop out tomorrow when we review one of my favorite creatures that gets an effect upon banishment! Until next time my fellow Kaijudo Duel Masters, keep calm and game on!
