HERACROSS D:
Modified:
Without Swoop Teleporter, your only chance of having a lone
Heracross is simply opening with it. The fact that Luna/Sol
will probably no longer be popular, and the fact that it has
mediocre attacks, makes the card overall weak.
Modified: 2/5
Unlimited:
Shining Horn is useful in unlimited, but there are other
basics that have the Poke-Body, (Skarmory) which are
probably slightly better.
Unlimited: 3.5/5

Heracross d
Pretty mediocre basic from Dragon Frontiers. Shining Horn is
always a useful Body. Opening with a lone Heracross against
Castform decks can really slow them down. Dig Deep and Extra
Claws aren’t very good, but they can get the job done I
suppose.
Unlimted: 1/5
Stops Cleffa and Sneasel IF they don’t play Cessation
Crystal, but since they probably do, Heracross isn’t going
to be very useful.
Modified: 1/5
Same thing as Unlimited. Shining Horn is too easy to play
around. Not very useful.
Limited: 3/5
Pretty good here. Sometimes your opponent wont be able to
get any evolutions out in time, and will hang a lot of turns
trying to deal with Heracross.

My reviews
and ratings are for Modified only.
Heracross delta
Modified 1/5 - The metagame is simply dominated by Evolutions.
Thus, this card is worthless. The attacks are really weak.
Sorry. |

Today’s Card Of The Day is…Heracross from Dragon
Frontiers
Well as a starter he is not the best choice, but his
power makes him limited gold!
30-50 damage for 2 energy is not bad, but in modified,
there are better choices. Although Dig Deep can be
useful to grab those discarded boosts, metal or darkness
energies.
Combos: This guy flies solo; he does his best work when
he is alone.
Modified: 1/5 Don’t see a use for him here, there are
better options
Limited: 3/5 As a starter, great he will last a few
rounds because this format is dominated by basics. But
eventually you will have to play a bench.
Current ebay Value: $3.00 (Plus or minus $1 dollars)

P.S. Jeff Reynolds is the best T.O. EVER!
On My Way to Lusby MD, for The City Championships, See
you there!

Heracross d:
Unlimited: 2/5
It can stop Sneasel? Loses to everything else.
Modified: 1/5
The power is too dangerous and the attacks are
worthless. Evolve and ohko it for the win.
Limited: 4/5
A nice body in limited, because most of the time you'll
be dealing with basics and you can see an evo coming and
being set up from a mile away.
Recycling energy is quite good and 2 for 30 is pretty
basic for this format.
A nice bit of bonus damage against ex's and it's
actually pretty good here.
