Victoria

This is a little card that could be very effective as a side-deck card for Lightsworn after the mass-release of Red Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon. She is a level 4 LIGHT Fairy with 1800 ATK and 1500 DEF, which is actually really solid stuff right there. 1800 is the standard for level 4's and the LIGHT attribute means that Beckoning Light and Honest are very happy with our girl, so it actually goes well in there.

The effect is that you can Special summon a Dragon monster from your opponent's graveyard once per turn. Woah, time out! Free Special Summon of a face-beating Dragon with the added bonus of it being your opponent's? Yes PLEASE! If that weren't enough, while she is face-up on the field, your opponent cannot select another Fairy monster as an attack target.

This card is VERY useful in the Dragon matchup (obviously) as you can just snatch your opponent's monsters and make their own deck work against them. It is also very good for the Kristyasworn deck when it goes up against Lightsworn. The only out that the true Lightsworn player has to Kristya is Honest, so you force them to attack Victoria and Kristya sees anotehr day without JD.

This is one of the cards that could see a rise in play, especially if Lightsworn goes up or down. Up, and this is a nice little side-deck trick. Down, and this card is going to be very good as Kristya replaces JD in Lightsworn decks. As far as I am concerned, this card is going to be VERY good to have for a while now.

Traditional-1/5
Advanced-3.5/5

Victoria ...

Possibly the sickest Yu-Gi-oh monster picture ever!
Totally bad-ass!
If we were rating that alone, she'd get a 5 ... maybe even a 6! ... but we're not.

The effect is very meh. If u find yourself up against a Dragon deck? - Then yes. Victoria will be your bff. But against anything else? What's the point. She's 1800 ATK at 4 stars, so she can hold her own in a dance against MOST non-tribute monsters. And she's light, so Honest does what Honest does best for monsters like her. But if that is all u wanted in a card, then u have better options. She is also Fairy type, so if u are looking to stay strictly with Fairy type monsters, then this might add some non-tribute muscle to your stable. And lastly Victoria protects any other monster from being attacked while she is on the field. So i suppose if u were able to get 2 on, then u will have a baby-lock on the field to keep your opponent from attacking ANYTHING ... at least till they found one of MANY ways around this.

Victoria looks awesome, but is neither a bad, nor a good card. So she gets the average rating.

Traditional: 3/5
Advanced: 3/5

Finally its Friday!! Yesterday we reviewed a very chill chick, now we look at, I don't know, a rather more fiesty chick. Again I dont know, just being silly. Anyways todays card is Victoria, light attributed, 1800 ATK 1500 DEF, fairy type monster. Honest fodder, solid attack power, ok defensive power. Effect however makes it a little more difficult to use, at least outside of a fairy deck, I mean if there was a "Zombie World" for dragon monsters and only affected the graveyard, maybe it'd be a different story. But hypothetically against a Hopeless Dragon deck, it can be very very useful. Snatching back a Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon or Dark Horus from their graveyard and using it against them for free is pretty kick butt, and while its on the field your opponent cannot select another fairy monster as an attack target. Basically a Magician's Valkyria for fairy monsters. Its got solid stats, an ok effect for fairy decks but the dragon effect is random and you'd rarely ever get to use it. I doubt if you went into a regional event with a deck that mained Victoria, that you would run into a Hopeless Dragon or regular dragon deck, so yeah.

Traditional: 1/5
Advanced: 1.5/5

Victoria:

A Dragon variant almost made the top 16 at the last Shonen Jump. If this becomes a trend (I don't believe it will), this card will make one hell of a side deck card for Lightsworns. If your opponent is using allot of dragons or dragon synchro monsters (too bad brionic is sea serpent), break this gal out for game two, and hope you live long enough to utilize her effect a few times. Otherwise it's just an average card that can be fun in a fairy deck. Get out two at once for an attack lock on your opponent (until they get rid of one of your Victorias).

Traditional: 1.5
Advanced: 2.0
