Welcome to my Crossed Souls week! Sea
Dragoons of Draconia is the 000 card of the Set, and
I believe was also the sneak preview card. We
have a Level 3 Monster, who is a 7 on the Pendulum
scale, who happens to be a Water attributed Sea
Serpent. The 200 attack doesn't really do
anything but the 2100 defense is quite nice and
helpful. This is a Normal Pendulum Monster, to
the point for the uninformed, it has a Pendulum
effect, yet no Monster effect. I picked this
card to open the week mostly for art, but as you can
see by said Pendulum effect, this guy does actually
have a home in Normal Monster Decks. When a
Monster is destroyed by Battle, regardless of by
whom, you're able to Special Summon a Normal
Monster. It does have to come from your Hand,
but that's still a free Monster to your side of the
Field, and a +1 if you do this when you're
destroying an opponent's Monster. Of course,
you're only allowed to do this once per turn.
Vanilla Decks are fun, you can even put together a
decent Water Vanilla Deck if you'd like. This
card is obviously mostly for fun, but it's an asset
regardless.

Baneful |
With the original Dragoons of Draconia being bad,
at least this Sea version had the opportunity to
improve on it, which it does not. It's a
Pendulum ; so what, there's a number of other better
Pendulum options out there. It has no effect
as a monster.
Its Pendulum Effect is weak as well. It
requires a Normal Monster, first of all (normal
monsters aren't good). Second, it requires the
monster to be destroyed in battle (if it gets
destroyed or otherwise removed from the field by a
card effect, tough luck). Third, it only
allows you to Special Summon from your hand (not
your deck or graveyard), making this a -1 all
around. A useless -1.
