alright every monday from now on i will begin a new card discussion and we can discuss a card coming out in a later set. (this is in no way related to card of the week) we can discuss combos, how we think the card will do in the meta, if it will see any play, etc.

alright so lets get started the first card of discussion is

Blue-Eyed Silver Dragon

http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Blue-Eyed_Silver_Dragon

This is a new syncro monster coming out in the blue-eyes structure deck.
light dragon/synchro/effect level 9
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner Normal Monsters
If this card is Special Summoned: Until the end of the next turn, Dragon-Type monsters you control cannot be targeted or destroyed by card effects. Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: You can target 1 Normal Monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target.
atk 2500 def 3000

i really like how this card sounds so far. first off you would probably want to use blue-eyes white dragon and white stone of legend to summon it. allowing you to search for another BEWD and on your next turn you can use its eff to special summon the BEWD you tuned back from your graaveyard.
Also it protects all of your dragons from effects, even your own, meaning you can summon him activate dark hold and all of your dragons will be safe. also it last until the end of the NEXT turn meaning he'll be protected from effects long enough to bring back BEWD from grave.
Will this see play in the meta.
I think it depends on what other new blue-eyes cards are released in the structure deck.
let me know what you think below.

I want to say something, but you two pretty much said it all haha. I love how Konami is trying to bring back oldschool decks. Blue-Eyed Silver Dragon has many reviews that people dis the switch between blue eyes becoming offense to defense. I find this a good switch because it seems to me that Blue-Eyed Silver Dragon is more so taking on the roll as like a guardian or healer. It revives and protects other dragons. I do wish that because of this that blue-eyed silver dragon had a bit more defense than 3k, like 3200-3400, but I can deal with 3000 in my blue-eyes deck

maiden actually lets you summon it from your hand, deck, or graveyard, making it that much better. it also lets you do it when its targeted by a card effect.

i really like the possibilities this adds for me, because irl i tend to run a dark paladin/blue eyes ultimate deck, because i can use three blue eyes for the ultimate than revive them with silvers eff. but just a question, can a fusion monster without an effect still be considered a normal monster for the purpose of that card? and about the maiden that will make my deck better because i wont have to run paladin of white dragon, which would be annoying to have to keep doing in this modern format, because a level 4 ritual monster is not the best thing to have in a deck you seek to play competitively. especially one that sometimes has trouble bringing out monsters even without a ritual
