It’s Thursday and fast approaching the weekend and for some, SPRING BREAK! I’m sure you all have plenty of plans but let’s not forget that in just over a week we’ll get our first taste of DragonStrike Infernus! Alrighty, let’s get to today’s card, Razorhide!

Name: Razorhide
Civilization:
Nature
Type: Creature
Race:
Beast Kin
Level:
3
Power:
2000
Flavor Text: “The thorn gods remain unkind to our half brother.”
Rarity: Common/Walmart Promo
Set Number:   152/165 l 3RIS and P6 I Y1PRM

Abilities:
Quillspike Harvest-
Whenever this creature attacks, you may put the top card of your deck into your mana zone.

Razorhide was pretty much a staple in most decks that were looking for that added mana acceleration. He essentially was the Aqua Seneschal of the Nature Realm, except instead of drawing you a card when you attack, he puts the top card of your deck into your mana zone, before your opponent can declare a blocker or use a shield blast. Fast forward almost a year and he’s still a very viable option for mixed decks and especially a deck that focuses around Beast Kin!

Being a Level 3 Beast Kin creature is a bonus in itself. This means that you have the option to evolve him into Bronze-Arm Sabertooth on turn four and break two shields or banish a powerful creature! Odds are you’ll be getting at least one free mana off of Razorhide whether you evolve him or just decide to swing in by himself.

The fact that Razorhide is 2000 power is both a plus and a minus. He can easily create advantage by giving you extra mana and also trade off in battle with the likes of Seneschal, Fumes, or Gigastand, however, he will often fall to removal cards like Barrage, Bone Blades, Heat Seekers, Rock Bite, and so on.

Beast Kin creatures are one of the well supported archetypes currently and I doubt that they’ll stop there anytime soon (seeing as Tatsurion is half Beast Kin). This card can create advantage and early pressure for your opponent; expect to see this card around for months to come, at least!

Ratings:

Constructed: 4.00/5.00 (This is a well-balanced card for his power and level overall. Add in the fact that it can take down other turn three or less creatures and a mana accelerant that can evolve into Bronze-Arm Sabertooth or Flamespike Tatsurion and you have yourself a winner!)

Limited: 4.50/5.00 (In limited play, he can get you multiple turns ahead of your opponent for free, allowing you to summon more powerful creatures and win the game before they even know they’re on the other side of the veil!)

What do Chris Brown and tomorrow’s card have in common? Make sure to stop by and see for yourself! Until then, remember to keep calm and game on!

Welcome to another awesome Kaijudo card review, right here at Pojo.com! Today we are looking at Razorhide. Razorhide is a level 3 Beast Kin Nature monster with 2000 power. Razorhide has the ability Quillspike Harvest, which says whenever this monster attacks, you may put the top card of your deck into your mana zone.
Razorhide may not be people's favorite creature, but I really like him for the mana acceleration. You can't drop big monsters without big mana. True, you risk losing some of those big monsters, or powerful spells, but you'll likely draw some at some point, and when you do, you'll have the mana to drop it, before your opponent.
A huge advantage with some associated risks makes this card far worth it for me.

Limited: 4/5
Constructed: 4/5

Another great COTD of the day for yall, and its another choice card from the show! Tatsurions, older brother? not sure myself. but either way lets get into it!

Razorhide
Cost: 3
Nature
Beast Kin
Power: 2000
Quillspike Harvest — Whenever this creature attacks, you may put the top card of your deck into your mana zone.

So once again we have another great effect. Sadly he has seemed to have fallen out of favor at the end of the Evo Fury format. He still pops up in Transmission decks (DNW) and he is still a wonderful card, netting some great mana accell. Plus being a Beast Kin? get out of here. Although he does not net you "direct" advantage such as cards from your opponents hands or providing you more resources. He generates advantage through speeding your turns up. Ramping your mana seems be even deadlier in Kaijudo than it was in Duel Masters and Razorhide is a great option to do it with.

Summary:
Great card and I really don't understand why it has fallen out of favor recently. Hopefully with more beast kin support we will see this pick up some play. With these big dragons coming out we cannot ignore getting to those turn 9's faster and faster.

Constructed 4/5
Limited 4/5
