Ryan's Yu-gi-oh Top Ten "Advent of Union" Cards
 
 
    People may ask why, just a few days after Pharonic Guardian is released, I look forward to the next set. Simple, really. This next set rocks! (Note... these are translations..they may change as the set is released)
 
10. "Glacier Beast" Water/water 1500/1000
 
This Card is a "union' type of monster, a monster with a very special effect: it can turn into a equipment card for a certain monster. This card can turn into an equipment for the "Heat Beast" and make it so that whenever the Heat Beast attacks your opponents directly, you can kill one of your opponent's magic or Traps. Not bad.
 
9. "Heat Beast" pyro/pyro 1500/1000
 
This card has the same effect as the Glacier Beast, but I put this one higher up because fire decks need this one more than the pesky fisherman/water decks using the glacier beast.
 
8. "Black Dragon" dark/dragon 900/600
 
This creature can become an equip for the "warrior of Yamimakai" (who, by the way, is a strong monster, 1800 attack). the Warrior gains 400 Attack and Defense and allows the warrior to attack life points directly. A great pick for dark and Dragon decks.
 
7. "XZ Caterpillar Cannon"  light/machine  2400/2100
 
A Fusion Monster created by the "X Head Cannon" and the "Z Metal Caterpillar". The good news: it can kill one Magic or Trap face down by discarding a card from your hand. The Bad News: your have to remove the fusion-material monsters to get this out. Oh well.
 
6. "XY Dragon Cannon"  Light/machine  2200/1900
 
Another fusion created by the fusion of "X-head Cannon" and "Y-Dragon Cannon". This Monster has the same effect of the XZ Cannon, but I prefer the Art of the Y-head Dragon.
 
5. "YZ Caterpillar Dragon  Light/Machine  2100/2100
 
"Y-head Dragon" and "Z-Caterpillar Cannon" Fused. Blah, Blah, Blah, Right? WRONG. This one can discard from your hand to kill a facedown monster. Cool.
 
4. "Black Core"  magic
 
Holy poop. Discard one card from your hand, remove a face-up monster on the field from the game. AND it's a rare. Dang.
 
3. "Knight of the White Dragon"  light/dragon  1900/1200
 
It's a ritual with one of my favorite art and effects. Not only is the attack pretty good, especially if you have a cyber Jar draw, but it's effects are dynamite. Effect 1: Fairy Meteor Crush-style, But number 2 Rocks. Effect 2: you can sacrifice this card in face-up attack to special summon a Blue-eyes white dragon to the field. Wowza. But the next two will blow your mind more than this one.
 
2. "XYZ Dragon Cannon"   Light/machine  2800/2600
 
A Big, Bad Fusion. Takes three removals, But it's worth it. The bad Boy's effect: Discard one card from your hand, kill ANY CARD ON THE FIELD! Whoa. Possible Secret Rare. XYZ perhaps has the best art in duel monsters.
 
1. "Magic Cancellor"  wind/machine 1800/1600
 
Five Stars, But who cares! Possibly one of the best in Duel Monsters. I hope Upper Deck Makes it one a deck at least! This monster prohibits all magics if it is face up. ****Drools****.  Possible Secret Rare in next Set.
