To close the week, we look at (as of now) Angel Feather's sole vanilla critical trigger, Rocket Dash Unicorn. 

...well, what else can I say? Alongside Critical Hit Angel, you can use up to 8 total critical triggers in an Angel Feather deck, which is more or less the competitive standard. Rocket Dash Unicorn will typically be a better bet than dedicating space to Stand Triggers, more so since the deck is lacking in strong, standalone rear-guards and on-hit effects,  but it can also take the place of Draw Triggers for maximum aggression. It looks nice, too, and multiple players including myself have dubbed it affectionately as "Robot Unicorn Attack". 

As a trigger unit, Rocket Dash Unicorn clocks in as an almost essential deck building block. Without a skill, however, it's nothing extraordinary. 3/5

Like yesterday's card, this is yet another pretty unicorn, except instead of rainbows and being useless, this one has rocket launchers of some sort and is a critical trigger, which is actually useful. But, it's just a critical trigger, so there's not really anything else to say about him. In English, we don't have Rampage Cart Angel yet, so you don't have much choice here, making Rainbow Dash Unicorn a staple. As soon as set 9 comes out, though, you'll have a choice between the critical unicorn and Flamboyant Stripper Kamina, though, unless you want to be cool and run both I guess.
 
3/5

Not much to say here. Rocket Dash Unicorn is a 100% standard critical trigger.
 
Critical triggers are a staple in vanguard as they allow pushing for extra damage while being powerful 10k shields. Its is common to have 2 or 3 sets of citicals in order to get extra damage in out of nowhere.
And its no unheard of getting 2 critical triggers in a drive check.
 
Art wise it gets bonus points for not being a typical unicorn. An orange mane with a black coat alost makes him look like a dark unicorn, along with purple armour. What destroys this beautiful artwork is the rocket strapped to its back...
 
4/5 for being a critical trigger
 
3/5 for artwork
