Well now aren't you a cheeky one!
Oh Lass, alas, if only you were...um...great?
Well, Lass has a special, and it's
supposed to give you more cards. In fact, it lets you
draw cards up to the number of Basic Pokemon your
opponent controls on their Bench. Unfortunately, that
restriction means that you're only able to draw up to 5
cards at the most, and chances are you're only getting
2-3 cards if that considering most Basics aren't really
Bench-sitters.
There may be moments where you get
4-5 cards, but more often than not, you're going to be
better off with something like Sycamore, which can net
you 7 cards, or something like Shauna, which would give
you up to 5 cards. Arguably, even something like Tierno,
which only draws you 3 cards, would be better than this
since with Tierno you at least know you're getting 3
cards! Lass's Special is far too reliant on the opponent
to fall into its strategy in order to be effective.
As far as draw Supporters go,
you've got much better options.
Rating
Standard: 1.5/5 (she's only getting
the half a point for the fact that she at least draws
cards)
Expanded: 1.5/5 (but that's not
saying much, especially given so many different draw
Supporters)
Limited: 3.5/5 (at least she's got
good potential here)
Arora Notealus: It's a shame
because a card like this even a couple years ago
wouldn't have been so bad. When Pokemon-EX were more
prominent, and the metagame revolved around deck types
like VirGen and Black Kyurem-EX, this card would've done
really well. Now though, it's not even okay by
comparison to what we've gotten.
Next Time: The mother of all
cards!!
