Explode Jewel Knight, Laile– #V-SS08/002EN (RRR)

[AUTO](RC):When it attacks, COST [put two normal units from your drop zone on the bottom of your deck in any order], Soul Charge (1), and this unit gets [Power]+5000 until end of that battle. [AUTO](VC/RC):When your other unit is placed on this unit’s circle, that placed unit gets [Power]+10000 until end of turn.

Odd duck here. So when we stack her next to Ashlei, it’s obvious the first skill is to keep the soul recharged so Ashlei has multiple uses. Second skill basically tells us that Ashlei is meant to call the new Jewel Knight over Laile so we can get another attack via pseudo Nova Grappler shenanigans, by powering up the new attacker. That’s great and all, except Ashlei is more of a BACKUP Vanguard, rather than a main boss. Main saving grace is that both skills are at least generic in use, so she can fit in any deck.

Pity she’s primarily meant for Ashlei support, so she’s restricted to basically just the decks that can run both Ashlei and Laile. Not to say it’s awful, but there’s more relevant Grade 2s for every deck.

2.5/5
