So Vice Dragons is finally officially released in the TCG and it should make Dragon Players happier. To me the cards is mediocre as I have no use for it. Exploder Dragon wasn't really expensive but it was hard to come by and it should make Disaster Dragon easier to build but the deck is still horrible.

Elemental Hero Prisma makes E-Hero fans rage as its previous outrageous price kept them from buying copies of it and it significantly lowers the cost of building GB decks. Dimensional Alchemist was currently a 5 dollar common and was necessary in any deck that removes a butt load of cards.

Judgment Dragon is reprinted again. Konami must really want to lower the price of a Lightsworn deck and his status as Gold Rare makes LS a little more appealing as the rest of the cards aren't expensive bar Lyla and Celestia. Mezuki was difficult to pull from PP2 and it was only 15 dollars. Now Konami decides is time to reprint the engine that made Zombies broken and if Mezuki does ever go to 2 then it should be easier to obtain along with Plaguespreader.

Thunderking Rai-Oh's were costly to obtain in sets of 3 and provides a good side deck card or main deck tech with an affordable price and expect a rise in Stun decks with Rai-Oh's reprint. Gale gets the foil treatment and makes Blackwing decks easier to bling out with Gold reprints of Icarus Attack, Armor Master, and Armed Wing.

Infernity Archfiend makes Infernity decks less costly but only by a little since Barriers are 60 each. But its a start if your making the deck. Stardust Dragons reprint as a Gold Rare officially makes it the Whore of Reprints but I see why Konami would put it on Gold Series 3. Its a staple in extra decks and its ridiculously high price before made it hard for kids who picked up the game through 5d's to obtain their characters favorite monster.

MST is another Staple that gets the Gold Treatment and I guess it makes some people happy. IDk but I dont want to pull like more than 5 MST's when I buy my case. My Body as a Shield finally gets the shine it deserves and its a format too late now with OTK decks and X-sabers owning the meta.

Smashing Ground gets a reprint in Gold as the Super version of the card was 0ver 40 dollars. Enemy Controllers were kind of hard to get but they're holo versions weren't difficult to obtain.

Remember this review is on the list on wikia. There's no guarantee that its 100% legit so dont go and sell your super Icarus Attack's. All right I'll be coming with more posts later on.
