Correction for
yesterday's CotD: Replace the Remove Trap and
commentary with Reverse Trap.
Overall Score: 2.0 (I
personally don't like this card)
Casual Play: 2.0
Tournament Play: 2.0
I'll keep this one sweet
and short.
La Jinn, Neo, Battle Ox,
Man-Eating Treasure Chest, Ryu-Kishin Powered.
There's a list of
attacking monsters you should put in your deck
before Rogue Doll. All of them except for Neo
and Battle Ox get the Sword of Dark Destruction
boost that Rogue Doll cries over because she can't
have it. Sure, she gets the Spellcaster bonus
from Yami and Book of Secret Arts, but so does Neo,
and he has 100 more attack power. If you can't
get access to enough of the above cards, considering
they're all starter deck cards, then Rogue Doll is a
good backup plan, but don't rely on it to win you
too many games.
Combos:
Standard Equipment
stuff.
Counters:
Monster removal.
Casual/Tournament Play:
If you can't get enough of the cards listed above to
put up a decent offense, throw this gal in.
Otherwise, you have better choices.
Verdict:
I guess I'm just biased against this card. I
never really liked it. I'll always prefer
Man-Eating Treasure Chest/Ryu-Kishin Powered/Dragon
Zombie as a 1600 attack monster.
Metal Raiders:
Rogue Doll gets further
damaged by this set with Dark Elf and a new 1800
attack monster, Rainbow Fish. Sure, you can
use Black Forest Witch to find the Doll, but you can
use that to find any other monster mentioned in this
entry, so that doesn't really help. For future
sets, Rogue Doll might be somewhat useful in a Light
themed deck, if you can't get enough Neo/Gemini Elf/Dunamis
Valkyria.
QUESTION TO PONDER: What
would they call Gatorade if it wasn't developed at
the University of Florida?
TOMORROW'S CARD: I'll
give you a hint. It's a restricted card, and
what do you do if you don't win or lose? Bah,
gave it away =P
