What's up, you guys?! Sorry about not being there on Monday; work can really take a toll on you. xP Anyway, this week seems to be all girls cards...huh...alright then. Lets see what we have...

Maiden of Rainbow Wood
Power: 9000
Grade 2
Clan: Neo Nectar
Race: Dryad
[AUTO](VC/RC):[Counter Blast (2)] When this unit's attack hits, if you have a «Neo Nectar» vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, draw a card.

...well...this is going to be awkward especially after my review with her clone in Glass Beads Dragon. If you want to know what exactly I said, it was only a few days ago, so check that out. Otherwise, I'd literally be saying the exact same things I said about Glass Beads Dragon...aside from the fact that I like Glass Beads' art more *FLAME SHIELD UP*.

Anyway, just like Glass Beads Dragon, Maiden of Rainbow Wood has the same purpose therefore should share the same rating as her buddy.

Raring: 4/5
Art: 3/5
Next Time: Hey look! More plant knights...wonderful...

Go Rogue...Go Pro!!!

Maiden of Rainbow Wood

Maiden of Rainbow Wood is the second hit-and-draw unit available to the Neo Nectar clan, in addition to Glass Beads Dragon. Upon hitting something, you can counterblast two, and draw a card, assuming you have a Neo Nectar vanguard.

Like I said for Glass Beads Dragon, this card can be used to great effect in an Arboros Dragon deck, or any deck that often has spare counterblast, for an extra draw. What makes this card interesting to me is that it is the second card with its skill to be introduced to the Neo Nectar clan. There is no support specifically for Dryads or Forest Dragons, so the only difference between Maiden and Glass Beads is, effectively, artwork. On the other hand, we now have the option of running eight hit-and-draw cards in our Neo Nectar decks. If you found that you were always in need of some extra draw power, running eight would be a viable option. In Arboros Dragon, 9ks become 12ks during the limit break, assuming copies are on board, making the draws you can get much more likely to happen. Drawing cards while retiring rear guards can quickly overwhelm an opponent.

If you don’t want to run eight (or some number greater than four), the only reason you would run this over Glass Beads Dragon is aesthetics, which is an entirely legitimate reason to run it.

Rating: 4/5 – Good in decks that can spare the counterblast.
