The King of D.

This card’s name becomes “Lord of D.” while on the field. When this card is Normal Summoned: You can discard 1 Spell/Trap; add 1 “The Flute of Summoning Dragon”, “The Melody of Awakening Dragon”, or “Dragon Revival Rhapsody” from your Deck to your hand.

Not matter if a card is popular due their competitive performance or their pressence in the series, soon or later they will come back in a new form. While clearly famous cards in the franchise will keep getting reprints in most releases, they also obtain counterparts to catch up with current strategies. Some replacing the original in its own Deck(s) and others causing an official archetype, is not necessary for the base card to be that powerful to obtain a new version later on. By just leaving a big mark in either anime or manga series, even a weak or obsolete can obtain new versions of itself with upgraded traits.

“The King of D.” is a new version of “Lord of D.”, a creature highly known by many old fans of the franchise as well one of the first monsters to have exclusive support to work with. “The King of D.” in most cases will be its replacement, as while on the field will be treated as “Lord of D.” and thus able to use its own cards with itself. This is further encouraged with a searching effect triggered when Normal Summoned, as in exchange of discarding a Spell or Trap we will add to our hand one of three Spell Cards related to “Lord of D.” and its mechanics. Although “The King of D.” doesn’t provide protection against targetting effects like the original, its searching ability can lead us to one of many powerful setups involving the Dragons we could immediately summon with its assistance.

When comes to support “The King of D.” is in a rough position, as if we want its best results we must limit ourselves to Normal Summon it so we can obtain its searching effect. On the bright side, “The King of D.” is only required on the field to activate “The Flute of Summoning Dragon” from the cards it can search of, so we ca instead focus on gathering Dragons to work with or without its assistance. From the massive supporting pool arround “Blue-Eyes White Dragon”, to the revival interactions involving “Lightpulsar Dragon” or “Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon”, “The King of D.” won’t be the priority of our Deck in most circumstances.

Back in the day “Lord of D.” was a feared monster as could swarm the board with powerful Dragons, and now “The King of D.” makes things easier by searching one of three efficient Spell Cards. “The Flute of Summoning Dragon” is the most known card by many veteran players as can summon any Dragon on our hand, and since “The King of D.” is treated as “Lord of D.” we can follow its obtention with the arrival of two powerful Dragons in our hand. “The Melody of Awakening Dragon” on the other hand only requires to discard a card for its use, letting us search for two Dragons which we could summon by “Flute” or other summoning options like “Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon”. Finally there’s “Dragon Revival Rhapsody”, requiring any Spellcaster on our field to then revive two Dragons from our Graveyard. All these options will lead to all sorts of goals we could aim for, ranging from gathering powerful Dragons to overwhelm the opponent to simply gather materials for expensive Extra Deck summons. But while the arrival of “The King of D.” will lead to the use of one of the Spell Cards that will give us in return, we could go a step further and use it on the Fusion Summon of “King Dragun” as will count as “Lord of D.” in a material role.

While has a faster setup compared to “Lord of D.” back in the day, “The King of D.” is practically in a same situation as the original monster. While the three cards that can search for are undoubtly powerful to gather powerful Dragons with, “The King of D.” is not a staple choice for many Dragon Decks given the many options they obtained over the years. With a severe restriction on its searching effect and the fact we require a solid hand for its best performance, “The King of D.” might not be a prevalent monster in the Type that “Lord of D.” supported during the first years of the game. However, like “Lord of D.” was able to corner the opponent with “The Flute of Summoning Dragon” from the first turns, “The King of D.” follows the same outcome with a strong early game with the help of its searching effect.

Personal Rating: B+

+ Is treated as “Lord of D.” to play cards related to it
+ When Normal Summoned will search for one of three cards related to “Lord of D.”
+ Strong early game along powerful Dragons to work with

- Limited support due the conditions of its searching effect
- Dragon Decks have enough options to not depend on this monster
- Mainly effective in early game

See, that’s what the app is perfect for.
