Shangri-La Star, Coral
Aaaand on the opposite end of the spectrum is a card
that fails to stir my loins. The apex of the Coral deck.
Limit Break ability is to Counterbast 1 and Soulblast 1
on attack to bounce a rear-guard and gain 3k power. Then
you can move a Coral unit in your hand into the soul,
drawing 2 if you do.
...Bleh. All the second skill is really going to be used
for is de-screwing a Crossride base, but 13k, when every
new deck is gaining archetypal attackers and gainers, is
growing less relevant. And for CB1, a +1 come Late Game
isn't really all that. Particularly when it's delayed
and the cost encroaches on your bounce targets.
Coral can't tank as hard as Duos or toolbox as much as
Alk. So save for insanity there's little reason to even
use this thing at all. The original Coral was outclassed
by every other Bermuda deck relative to its release
anyway (and yes, I'm prepared to elaborate if bugged:
CB2 for 5k when generic LBers get it for free AND SC2 at
a point when it can't ever use it anyway), and the fact
that you have to run the entire chain just to have this
thing be used optimally is really not a liberty I want
to take.
Coral isn't all that. Forget this and try Duos if you
really want a good Bermuda deck.

Shangri-La Star, Coral
This, hmm, a cross ride of Aurora Star, Coral.
Okay, that's easy enough to figure out, now, what about
the other effect?
Oh, hey! That's pretty neat! SB1 and CB1 to
return a unit to the hand for an extra 3000 power boost,
making her 14000 for the turn, but, her other ability...
Put a Coral unit into the soul? Like, say Aurora
Star, Coral?
Very neat, able to hit the crossride without needing to
wait and getting an extra 2 cards in the process.
Lovely.
Yeah, this is how Ride Chains should work, being able to
put cards into the soul that you need to make them work.
