Wednesday: Level Limit- Area B
Rated For: Any deck that doesn’t use level 4 or
higher monsters :P
Wednesday brings us another overlooked common; this
one is Level Limit- Area B from Ancient Sanctuary.
It draws immediate comparisons to two counterparts,
Messenger of Peace and Gravity Bind. A typical
stall/burn deck won’t be packing nine copies of all
three cards, so obviously some are more optimal than
others.
Basically, what this review boils down to is this.
Is Level Limit Area B more deck-worthy than MoP and
Gravity Bind? Let’s analyze its use.
Advantage F/H:
Instead of preventing attacks, this
one moves all monsters to defense mode. It’s also a
spell, making it un-negatable by Jinzo, but you’re
kind of showing your opponent the goods early in
your turn since it’s a normal spell. With the lack
of spell/trap removal in the post-ban environment,
you’ll be getting a good level of protection with
this card. What you choose to do with it, of course,
depends on your deck.
7/10.
Best Draw for the Situation:
Great in a pinch simply because
of all the stalling capabilities. It’s normal spell
status makes it immediately playable and it’s not
negated by Jinzo, so you’re pretty safe. It’s a good
draw for the right deck.
8/10.
Attributes/Effect:
Since this does basically the same
thing as MoP and Gravity Bind, this is where it’s
score will either be very high or very low. I think
it’s superior to Messenger of Peace because it has
no life point cost, plus strong sub-1500 monsters
such as Don Zaloog and D.D Warrior Lady can’t attack
under it. It’s about the same as Gravity Bind, but
it can’t be negated by Jinzo, so it’s even slightly
superior to that as well. Simply put, this card is
the best stalling spell/trap in the
game. 10/10.
Dependability:
With reliable spell/trap negation
gone, the only things able to kill it are:
Breaker, MST, Heavy Storm, and Dust
Tornado’s. It makes the card a heck of a lot more
reliable post-ban. Prepare to be annoyed, beatdown
users.
8/10.
The Bottom Line:
I’m sure we’ll see this card start
popping up more frequently.
A BAD Score:
33/40= 83/100
Cards it functions well with:
Any good level 3 or lower
monster, including Sonic Duck! |
