Leviair the Sea Dragon
Xyz Monster Card
WIND / Aqua / ATK-1800 / DEF-1600
2 Level 3 monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target 1 banished Level 4 or lower monster; Special Summon that target to your side of the field.
It's easy to see why this card is (IMO) the BEST Xyz Monster out right now. This card is only getting better as time goes on. This card will be in even more demand after Photon Shockwave, and guess why? Rescue Rabbit. There, I said it, there are people out there who are going to take hundreds of dollars to invest in a set of Rescue Rabbit, A set of Tour Guide from the Underworld, and at least two of these. This card is ridiculously broken when combo'd with Rescue Rabbit, mainly for these reasons.
- The Rabbit Laggia deck often runs many cards that can RFG Rabbit, such as Gold Sarcophagus. This means Leviair will almost always have a target.
- If Rabbit RFG's itself, there's a Laggia or Dolkka right there. That's pretty amazing, but now with Leviair, you can repeat that next turn, another Rank 4 with a Leviair on the field!
- With that Laggia and Dolkka on your side of the field, the chances of Leviair surviving are greater than you think! That means you can use Rabbit AGAIN! THAT'S THREE LAGGIA FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!!!
The reason why people choose to get rid of their Leviairs is because they don't have any Tour Guides to go with them. Let me leave you with this thought. Which will get reprinted first? When Tour Guide is reprinted, what is the main card everybody will now need in their deck? Could this card rise up to $50 from this? Think about it.
Trade for Ultras at 25 and Ultis at 30 until you at least have enough for yourself and then some
This investment is: SAFE, because chances are Tour Guide will be reprinted before this thing, driving up the price by a crazy amount.
Isn't there a few risks in this card? With such a powerful effect this would be THE XYZ monster I'd see on the banned/resricted list 1st. And as a character card an announcement of a shark character pack would almost guarantee a reprint. But this card right now is necessary and useful and money can be made.
ReplyDeleteIdea for another post: currently banned cards that could come back.
ReplyDeleteAn obvious example would be bls envoy.
Gold envoy shot up from $7 to ~$40 at its highest.
One card I definitely see coming back is oppression, but I don't remember how much it was before being banned, so I can't tell if it's changed much, if at all. If it does come back, however, I predict it would go up at least $4 in price due to crap like tour guide, tengu, plants, chaos, etc.
Plus I can see it going to 2.
I was surprised it didnt go to 2 and got banned instead >_>
There's also rescue cat, which could go to 1.
It wouldn't surprise me much if fishborg came back to 1.
Trunade, goyo, and magician of faith aren't likely, but I'll just throw them out there lol.
There's also limited to semi and semi to unl, like book to 2, though i don't imagine that changing it's price much, maybe by $2.
