Dimension Creeper
Welcome to Shameless
Indulgence Week! This week we review cards that interest
ME, the Saikyo Cardfighter, and almost certainly no-one
else. So we start with a card that clutters up the boxes
of commons at my local shop, Dimension Creeper. It's
just one of those cards where it hides some rather
annoying benefits. If it's in the soul, drop it out to
Soulcharge 2. Sounds boring and chance-based for just 1
more net soul added, but it's actually really good,
because of what you can do with the 2 soul added.
Soulcharging 2 cards in the Main Phase grants Doreen the
Thruster an extra 6000 power, making it form columns
with almost anything. Better still, setting it up is
actually really easy, since Greedy Hand is a fairly
standard starter and it can search for it to put in the
soul. You could use Free Traveler to put it in too, but
I find I'd rather just use Greedy or natural chance to
put it there and use something a little more useful
(assuming the deck's built right and Soulcharges fast,
1-2 should end up in the soul by accident, so you should
be ok).
Essentially, he's here to
make Doreens shoot for big numbers across the board. Use
him before (or after) a Dantalian Break Ride along with
some other card like Master of Fifth Element, and what
you have is one hell of a turn where everything is
swinging for the most ludicrous numbers in Late Game,
basically saying "2 Perfect Guards here or you die".
Even before the Break Ride, he can power up Doreens for
decently high numbers, effectively creating a
devastating 2 turn punch to the opponent.
Dimension Creeper probably
can't function without any of the pieces mentioned in
this review, but it's one hell of a combo piece.
