18: Stardust Spark Dragon



This card is an alternate version (not really a retrain as the original stardust isnt bad either) of arguably the synchro eras de facto synchro monster, as it was the ace monster of the main character in the anime.

Usability: 9/10
I really like the flexibility this card has. It sacrifices the recursion effect the original Stardust has for a more pre-emptive effect, and it can grant itself this effect too, and this effect protects from ALL card effects, not just monsters, so its superior to First of the Dragons. You can either turn it into a perpetual tank or grant another monster the protection if you really need to push through for that last bit of damage. And finally, its on both players turns. Its not quite as good as just being immune to card effects but its still very good protection.

Design: 7/10
I actually like the original Stardust design just a little more, but this one is still good, I really like that the wings seem to be made of feathers (something it shares with Judgment Dragon).

Attachment: 2/10
I know what youre thinking: Personal attachment to a synchro monster!? Let me explain. Many years ago there used to be a free online ygo sim called ygopro, but it was unofficial so I think it no longer exists. But I did dabble on there for a bit because I really just wanted to build a dragon deck and see how itd work without paying for a bunch of cards first. And at that time, I hadnt yet come to completely shun off other extra deck summons, I was more exploratory. So I was like hey, lets see what this is all about, and Stardust Spark Dragon was my main extra deck monster that I liked to go into. Obviously my deck fell completely flat against the AI using meta decks in that game, but Spark even managed to live quite a while against those decks, so I was impressed. So there you have it, the time I used synchros.

Total score: 18/30
I do like stardust spark dragon and the original stardust dragon, and there is plenty of support for the OG one at least. If this were a maindeck monster it would make top 10 easily.
