Offering to the Immortals

This is one of the support cards for the Earthbound Immortal series of cards. Most of them are not really playable, so I would expect most of the support to fall in the same category. It is a Normal Trap, which is pretty good as it is the most flexible Trap type.

The effect is that when you are attacked directly and have less than 3000 lp, you negate the attack and Special Summon 2 Ceremonial Tokens. Th etokens cannot be trobuted except for an Earthbound Immortal monster. You can also add an Earthbound Immortal, Earthbound Revival or Roar of the Earthbound from your deck to your hand.

First off, the activation requirement is almost silly. If you are in that dire straights with life then you want Mirror Force, Threatening Roar, Waboku or at least Magic Cylinder. Negating the attack is good, and summoning the tokens is good, but you really cannot do anything for them. At best they are blockers. The search is a good part of the card, but I feel that it would have been a better choice to put it on a wholly different card.

Earthbound decks need to speed to an Immortal (Assla Piscu, The Fish, or Wiraqocha Rasca) and get it to the field as quickly as possible. It doesn't help the cause that their main search card is a situational trap that is better played when you are losing. Te card itself is not bad, but neither is it good.

Traditional-1/5
Advanced-1.5/5

Offering to the Immortals:

I don't have a lot of experience with Earthbound Immortals, so this review will be short... At first the lifepoint requirement for this card seems a bit ridiculous, but when you think about the fact that Earthbound Immortals thrive off of Mausoleum of the Emperor, getting down to 3000 or less lifepoints probably isn't that hard for an Immortal player. The search effect is cool, as being able to search for multiple card types (monsters, spells, and traps) is rare. All in all, this card seems a bit situational, if you are below 3000 LPs and this is your only lifeline, I'd be a bit worried. One MST and you lose. Earthbound Immortals just require too much effort for what they do right now.

Traditional: 1.0 (Nobody uses toons and they've been out forever... I don't see Immortals fairing any better)
Advanced: 2.0 (I think I'm just tired of giving out 1.5s)

Offering to the Immortals

Today, we're reviewing another Earthbound Immortal support card. Yeah, they're still making those. This one can only be activated when you're about to die, and you're being attacked directly- and you'd better hope that's their only monster. However, if you get this effect off, you're given any Earthbound Immortal, or any of their support cards, and two monsters to summon it with. This is an amazing effect that will likely win the game for you (if you have a field spell, anyway), but is very difficult to activate and the tokens are easily killed off.

3/5, it's a very risky card.
Art: What the hell does that background have to do with Earthbound Immortals?
Fun Fact: Kabutops has to hit level 72 before it learns Night Slash...
Tomorrow: They're still making Koa'ki Meiru support, too.
