Welcome back everyone to Pojo.com's Card of the Day review! Make sure to stop by my YouTube channel for new content from the Pennsylvania KMC, including a couple top cut matches and even a deck profile of the winning deck! Alrighty, today's card is yet another one that you will often see in a mono-red rush deck on turn one, Jetflame Bodyguard.

Name: Jetflame Bodyguard
Civilization:
Fire
Type: Creature
Race:
Drakon
Level:
1
Power:
3000
Flavor Text: Silent as statues, they stand beside Skycrusher, bursting into action only when their lord commands.
Rarity: Common
Set Number: 41/55 l 4EVO

Abilities:
Skirmisher
(This creature can attack only creatures.)

I'd rather see this hitting my opponent's battle zone sooner than Blaze Belcher. Mainly because this guy cannot attack any of my shields as long as he's on the board. What makes this card so good, is that it costs just one mana to play, which is easy in any deck, especially rush. He won't be getting banished by Barrage since his power is hefty 3000, but he's still susceptible to every other form of removal such as Heat Seekers, Bone Blades, etc.

The other benefit of this guy is that on turn two you can evolve him into the Scaled Impaler or on turn three you can bring out Burnclaw or Laser-Arm! If you ever get paired up in a mirror match of Drakon VS Drakon, Jetflame can easily dispose of most of your opponent's creatures with little difficulty but it does require you to wait for them to attack you first.

Overall, it isn't a bad card but often an essential card in Drakons to allow for Evolutions to be more efficient. If you see this hit the board, expect bigger things to happen in the very immediate future.

Ratings:

Constructed: 2.50/5.00 (The main reason this card is any good at all is because it is extremely cheap evolution bait and can fend off attacks early game, outside of that, your deck has little room for him.)

Limited: 2.50/5.00 (If you're able to find the evolutions to go with your Drakons in limited play, this card can be amazing, otherwise, it can be a bad call.)

Stop out again tomorrow when we take a look at Mr. Smith. Make sure to check out my channel for new content and until next time my fellow Kaijudo Duel Masters, keep calm and game on!
