The Shining Darkness

Yay, the set list is up! Well, it's been up for a while, but the important thing is that the rarities are now known!

I like how they increased the rarities of Blackwing cards, since I don't like that archetype much anymore. I would have never expected Cards for Black Feathers (Black Feather Treasure) to be an Ultra/Ultimate Rare, though.

The low rarities on Koa'ki Meiru cards make me happy. Sandman as a Common and Prototype and Shield as Rares is awesome! I'll be remaking my Koa'ki Meiru deck as soon as I can get some of those cards.

Spore and Ronintoadin as Commons is also good. I'll try to pick up some Ronintoadins for a Frog deck, and I might use Spore in my current main deck. I might try to get some Cherry Inmatoes, since they're not bad.

The Synchros are pretty nice. I want a Black-Winged Dragon for use with Debris Dragon. Hopefully it'll be inexpensive. I'll also try to get Infernity Doom Dragon and Splendid Rose if they're not too expensive. I probably won't use them, but they'll be nice to have. By the way, I'm surprised that they made Chaos Goddess a Secret Rare...

What I'm not so happy about is the increase of Infernity Mirage and Infernity Launcher from Common to Super Rare. Now I won't be able to get them easily, and I wanted to make an Infernity deck... Well, maybe it's not as bad as I think. We'll see...

It's nice that some Genex are going to be made legal in this set. And as Commons, too. Genex Neutron was a nice addition, as well. I was freaking out until I found out that it could only search Tuners. Yay, Turbo Rocket!

I might want to pick up some XX-Saber Darksouls. They'll be very expensive, so I'll probably give up early on. At least I'll get some Boggart Knights, for all they're worth.

Now we'll just have to prepare our Side Decks for two or three more decks with the release of this set. But wait! There are some nice Side Deck cards in the set, like Crevice into the Different Dimension and Chaos Trap Hole. Crevice is a Common while Chaos Trap Hole is a Short Print, so they shouldn't be too terribly difficult to get.

Overall, it should be a pretty good set. I'm not going to be able to go to the Sneak Preview until Sunday, but I can't wait to get the new cards!
