Blindly Loyal Goblin
As long as this card remains face-up on the field control of this card cannot switch.
The 1800 ATK for a level 4 is decent, but if you're going to use an 1800 or below ATK monster today, it had better have a killer effect. This one does not. The only cards that it counters are Change of Heart, Creature Swap, and Snatch Steal. The chances that the opponent having them while this is on the field is pretty slim. But for argument's sake, let's say that it does happen. The opponent can simply use the CoH/SS on a different monster, assuming you have one, or he could wait and use it on one of your more powerful monsters. Either way, it's not that great of an effect or beatdown monster.
I'd give this 2.5/5. If you want to use an 1800 monster, I'd suggest Kycoo over this.

Wednesday - Blindly
Loyal Goblin
DCR-022
(Earth/Warrior/4/1800/1500)
As long as this card remains face-up on the
field control of this card cannot switch.
Almost like another
version of Gearfried the Iron Knight, although
it doesn't have as much combo potential.
There really isn't
a good reason to run this Monster, even in a
Warrior deck. We have much more solid options
available. It is better than a lot of the
old-school 1800's, which isn't saying much in
the current environment.
You could possibly
side it in versus Control to combat Change of
Heart, Snatch Steal, and Creature Swap, but in
the long run, it really isn't necessary.
Not bad at all in
Limited. 1800 ATK is considered very high in
this format, play it if you see one. The Effect
will generally be useless, but it doesn't
matter.
Rating:
Constructed - 1.9/5
Limited - 3.5/5

Wednesday 12/17/03: Blindly Loyal Goblin
4/1800/1500
Effect Monster
Earth/Warrior
DCR-022

Another 1800 ATK Warrior... It won't stand up to many other beatsticks but it's always nice to know that your opponent can't steal it from you.
If it's ruled that you can select Blindly Loyal Goblin with Creature Swap (even though control won't change), it would make for a very nice combo.
This isn't a very good card. 1800 ATK is so-so and the "Loyalty Effect" is pretty situational. This should only see play in Warrior Decks if at all.
Rating-
Casual: 2.4
Tourney: 2.4 |

This card will make warrior decks a lot better. An 1800 warrior, 4 stars, that can’t change control. That is beautiul, IMO. Even for a beginner’s deck, this card would be great. Giving a deck card that can’t be CoH or Snatch Stole is brilliant. It’s common as well, so can you say it’ll be everywhere? I can. Well, everywhere up here anyways. There are barely any good duelists where I live, just beginners. I might actually try my hand at a warrior beatdown in the near future, but not right now.
I give Blindly Loyal Goblin a 8/10.

Hey, sort of like some of Saddam’s bodyguards…
Well, not bad for a common monster. It’s a level 4, tribute free, 1800
attack monster which makes it reasonably good for those who play beatdowns
and aren’t rich.
But if you have the money, then I would defiantly stay away from this card.
Sure, it stops CoH, and Snatch Steal, but you can stop that with Magic
Drain. And those are Major Restricted cards anyway. In place of this card,
there are better cards such as Gemini Elf or Kycoo the Ghost destroyer,
which has the same attack, but better effect.
Not much to say about this card, but if you are running a deck on a budget,
then go ahead and pick up a few of these.
Blindly Loyal Goblin- 4.5/10

ah, a common that
maybe useful, especially if you're just starting,
first of, its 1800, which is decent but not
terrific (especially with the new archfiend
soldier running around, rare 1900/1500) i like
this cards effect though, it renders your
opponents snatch steal, change of heart, and
creature swap useless, now dont get me wrong,
if you're in a you're in a tourney playing this
card, and your opponent targets it via change or
snatch, and you say "ohh you burned it you
burned it" thats just not true, why you ask?
the effect states it CANNOT change in the first
place, so change or snatch cannot legally target
this card, now if the effect read "NEGATE and
destroy anyy card that shifts control of this
card" then you would have a case where one
could "burn" a snatch or change, this is
just to clarify as im sure many duelists will try
to argue over this.
Tourney-3/5-its
a decent card, with a good effect, and respectable
stats
Draft-5/5-I
use this card in my draft deck..i love the
"change of hea..CRAP!"
Artwork-2/5-eh..this
guy could look better, maybe you can hook it up
with a few GAFs and build a goblin deck, lol, not
really, why, that would be like trying to build a
celtic guardian deck.
Closing Line-No! I
dont care what you say! hes my goblin and its
going to stay that way!
