I am really getting sick of bishonen characters.  No, I don’t know that this character is male, but neither can I establish it as female.  I’ve heard different “guesses” as to what character inspired the card and some are male, some are female.  Another fun fact is that for those of us with a Judeo-Christian bent, most if not all angels mentioned in the Bible are male.  Yes, the card is a Spellcaster and not a fairy; I calls it like I sees it. :-P

 

Okay, end art rant.  The actual card is very interesting and I assume will see quite a bit of play.  It is a Level 1 Light/Spellcaster/Tuner with 0 ATK/DEF but a sweet effect: you can discard it from hand during your opponent’s Main Phase, select one monster your opponent controls, and negate said monster’s effect until the End Phase.  Simply put, this forces a lot of FTK/OTK decks to grind to a halt.  Timed properly, it will be at a key moment and insanely hard to recover from.  One does have to be careful, as Effect Veiler negates only monsters in play, so stuff that occurs elsewhere won’t be touched.  Plus, as usual Exiled Force resolves in the Graveyard and…

 

Ugh.  It does negate Exiled Force.  Don’t ask me why or how when so many other cards can’t because of where the effect resolves.  This also provides another win condition: random ruling induced aneurysm.

 

When using the card, try to time it so that your opponent burns a “cost” for the monsters effect.  Simple, obvious, but I feel I have to point it out, since it can keep you from losing any “card” advantage, or even generate some,

Traditional: 5/5 – Chaos food that chucks itself into the Graveyard while destroying opposing FTKs and pretty much any played strategy?  Yes please!

 

Advanced: 4/5 – Still looks great to me, as so many commonly played cards and strategies will be ground to a halt.  Yes, you still need an answer on your turn, but as long as you can supply one this can easily turn a no-win situation into your win.
