Dragon Horn Hunter

 

If you're going to use a crappy single-tribute Normal Pendulum, which in itself is inadvisable, you should just use FOUCALT'S CANNON.  At least you get some removal out of it.  And it's a lower Pendulum level too, enabling you to pendulum summon LV3 monsters.

 

Yes, Normal Monsters gain 200 ATK and you save a few LP's, but Normal Monsters (no matter what support they get) have never been worth using as a deck.  And even if they were, Dragon Horn Hunter doesn't do nearly enough for them.

 

This is a BAD card.

 

On the bright side, it's nice to see a female monster without sexist art

Dragon Horn Hunter

If you play Cardfight Vanguard this card may remind you of Blaster Dark. This card is cool in the fact you can Advanced Art and search for the card but it does not do much for it as a card. Normal monsters sadly do not benefit from this card as much as they should. In the future maybe we could break normal pendulums but not in today's format.

Advanced 1/5
Traditional 1/5

Not gonna lie, when I picked this week, I picked this card and placed it in the Friday slot solely because of the incredible artwork on the card.  Dragon Horn Hunter is a Normal Level 6 Monster (and a 3 on the Pendulum Scale) with base stats of 2300 and 1000, both low for a Monster that requires a Tribute.  Her Pendulum effect grants all Normal Monsters 200 attack, which is paltry at best, making her 2500, I guess "justifying" the 2300 base.  But she shines in a Normal Monster Deck, competitive as that is...or isn't.  As she also allows you to take no Battle Damage from Battles involving Normals you control.  That's a huge benefit, kinda makes me wanna break out a Dark Magician or Blue Eyes Deck.  There's a wide arsenal of powerful vanillas out there.  She's not great on the competitive edge, but she's got a home for sure.
 
Ratings:

Traditional:  1/5 
Advanced:  3/5 because even though she only has one home, she does a very nice job in it.   
Art:  5/5

Wrapping up this week we have Dragon Horn Hunter, a Normal Pendulum Monster.

Statwise Dragon Horn Hunter is a Level 6 DARK/Warrior which isn’t bad with 2300 ATK and 1000 DEF but are standard for a high ATK level 6. It has a Pendulum Scale of 3 which is solid and it will allow you to Pendulum Summon level 4 monsters.

Though it is a Normal Monster it has a Pendulum Effect which boosts the ATK of all Normal Monsters by 200 and you take no battle damage if your Normal Monsters battle. While 200 ATK isn’t a massive boost it can still help also the no Battle Damage effect is a nice touch.

Overall only for Normal decks.

Traditional: 1.5/5
Advanced: 2/5
