Graceful Revival closes our week, that allows the
user to Special Summon a Level 2 or lower monster
from your Graveyard in attack position. There are
good Level 2 monsters to select in this category,
but combos too.
You could Book of Moon the monster (especially being
an effect monster) and re-use the Flip effect, or
you could use said monster for a Synchro Summon.
This card really does have some possibilities.
It may not be worth a Deckspot, but it isn't useless
either.

Graceful Revival
"I'll take 'Reasons Disk Commander is Banned' for
$2,000, Alex."
...so we have another Call of the Haunted that you
can run 3 of, but with a restriction designed to
make it not game-breaking. Limit Reverse keeps the
revivals under 1,000 ATK; Graceful Revival keeps
them to Levels 1 and 2.
There are very, VERY few cards that are over 1,000
ATK that are Level 2 or below -- meaning things this
can revive but Limit Reverse can't. Based on that, I
tend to prever Limit Reverse -- the one reason I
could think of to use this is a deck that requires
massive swarm with weenie monsters or to set up for
a combo with them.
...although admittedly, I wish this card didn't
exist solely so we could get Disk Commander back in
a future format, so all the pros would complain
about how unfair it is -- and this is coming from a
person who lost out on a Nats invite solely because
of Disk Commander.
Maybe there will be some card this is needed for to
make an epic deck; I'm just not seeing it right now.

Well this is one of the simpler cards in the game.
You get a Call of the Haunted for a level 2 or lower
monster. Hmm, didn't we already have a card like
that? Let me think, oh yeah! Limit Reverse does the
same sort of thing, except for a monster with less
than 1000 ATK.
There are advantages to both, as the Reverse can
terminate itself and can fetch low ATK but hugh
level cards like Malicious and Exile Force. It is
also a common and thus easier to obtain for people
who like the card but don't want to buy packs to get
them.
Graceful Revival on the other hand will get back ANY
level 2 or lower monster, meaning that Krebons,
Jutte Fighter and many other cards are able to be
summoned that Limit Reverse cannot. It is however
more limite in it's toolbox, as D.D. Crow, Krebons
and Jutte Fighter are likely to be the only monsters
it will be getting.
Whichever one you use is perfectly up to you, but in
general I think that Revival is better, as it can be
used with all of the Tuner monsters, allowing for
better Synchro summons than Limit Reverse.

Todayʼs card up for review is Graceful Revival.
I actually like this card sorta. I have been messing
around with decks to try and get as many Synchro
Summons as possible. I actually messed with this
card to grab Krebons, and got pretty decent results!
Im sure you can think of plenty of fun stuff to grab
with this. Some form of a combo deck or stall.
