Gladiator Beast War Chariot is an incredibly simple Super Rare Trap Card that has gotten a lot of hype lately, and rightly so. This will be short, because there isn't much to say. It's a Counter Trap that negates the effect of an effect monster for NO cost. You have to control a Gladiator Beast monster, but you probably do anyway.

Ratings:

Traditional: 3/5 Good protection, but better options available.

Advanced: 5/5 You play Gladiator Beasts, you play this. It's that
simple.

Art: 4/5

If my reviews so far this week have depressed you, welcome to the ray of shining hope that is today's review. Gladiator Beast War Chariot is broken. There I said it. It feels good now. Negating and destroying monsters is a good thing, and all you have to do to activate it is have a Gladiator on the field? In a Gladiator Beast deck that is easier than having a CCV target.

The fact that it is a counter trap that will really only get stopped by Solemn Judgment is amazing. You can also negate 90% of what would kill itself anyway. So your Judgment Dragon, Celestia, Stardust Dragon, D.D. Crow, Honest, Dark Armed Dragon and such are completely useless. Now this is what I call a good card. Oh and did I mention that it is reusable and abusable with a certain winged centaur named Equeste that everyone should be drooling over? I didn't? Oh, well Gladiator Beast Equeste can get it back with it's effect. BOMBBZORZZ!

Anyway the card is useless outside of Gladiator Beasts and I think is one of the best themed support that we have ever gotten. Seriously, Dark Grepher was a toy compared to this beast of a trap card. It just kills opposing decks, so you WILL use this in Gladiator Beasts or you WILL lose far more often.

Traditional-1/5
Advanced-5/5

    Today’s card up for review is Gladiator Beast War Chariot. This card is obviously a must for the deck type. So instead of having to pitch a card for divine wrath, why not have a Glad on the field and do the same thing? The list is so long on what all this card stops and devastates. I see no reason not to use at least three of this card if you are a Gladiator Beast player. Remember how dominating the deck was before all of this tele-dad crap? I honestly believe this card is the big piece to help Glads compete

Trad: 5/5
Adv: 5/5
Pwii GB war chariot isn't all that great. Yes, it stops DAD and almost everything else in the game but...okay I take that back. This is pretty ok for GB seeing as almost every monster nowadays is effect, it has a pretty good chance of getting set off. Very nice.

3.75/5 all.

Super Rare

Gladiator Beasts get their card that negates effects now. Just as long as you have one Gladiator Beast on the field, any monster effect can be negated. No discard or life point cost makes the War Chariot a great card for one of the three top decks in the game right now. Everybody will play this card, but with the popularity of Dark Armed Dragon Decks, Gladiator Beasts are a thing of the past.

Traditional: 3/5
Advanced: 4/5
