#Dragunity Knight Areadbhair

Dragunity Knight - Areadbhair

I have no idea where to start when it comes to pronouncing this card's name, but it's a cool dragon so hey whatever. The name itself means "Slaughterer," and it comes from a sentient, magical, bloodthirsty, flaming spear wielded by an Irish god. Saying all that kinda makes me wish this dragon was at least partially on fire, but I think the flame colored background suffices. Speaking of the background, the addition of Dragon Ravine in the lower background feels a little unnecessary because of how unnoticeable it is; I feel like the card would look essentially the same even if it wasn't there. I do like the multi wing look Areadbhair has going on (feel like you don't see that enough), and its extremely pointy face shape is fun too. Dragunity Legatus being so super tiny to the point he's almost unrecognizable is funny. Like there's no way he's actually directing Areadbhair to do anything, he's just along for the ride.

So here’s the list of recent Level 10 monsters belonging to archetypes without Level 12 boss monsters: This list only concerns OCG sets Rise of the Duelist onward. The non-archetypal monsters are in the addendum:

Level 10, archetypal:

Earthbound Servant Geo Grasha

Thestalos the Shadow Flame Monarch

Nemleria monsters

Chaos Angel

Mannadium Prime-Heart*

Evigishki Neremanas

Icejade Gymir Aegirine*

Black-Winged Assault Dragon*

Amazoness Augusta

Therion Irregular*

Starving Venom Predapower Fusion Dragon*

Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord

Swordsoul Sinister Sovereign - Qixing Longyuan*

Myutant Ultimus

Masterflare Hyperion

Swordsoul Supreme Sovereign - Chengying*

Machina Ruinforce

Crystal Clear Wing Synchro Dragon*

Ogdoabyss, the Ogdoadic Overlord

Ruddy Rose Dragon*

Nekroz of Areadbhair

Eldlich the Mad Golden Lord

Oneiros, the Dream Mirror Tormentor

Oneiros, the Dream Mirror Erlking

Dragunity Arma Gram

Dragunity Knight - Areadbhair

Level 10, non-archetypal:

Behemoth the King of All Wars

Daidara-Bocchi

Divine Dragon Titanomakhia

Arcana Triumph Joker

Lord of the Heavenly Prison

Baronne de Fleur

Egyptian God Slime

Gizmek Okami, the Dreaded Deluge Dragon

****

For Level 11 ones:

Level 11, archetypal:

Ultra Beetrooper Absolute Hercules

Psychic End Punisher

Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Amazing Dragon

Hi-Speedroid Clear Wing Rider

Shooting Majestic Star Dragon*

Trishula, Zero Dragon of the Ice Barrier

Dogmatika Nexus*

Level 11, non-archetypal:

Tsumuha-Kutsunagi the Lord of Swords

*****

Looking at this list, it seems Ogdoadic have the best chance of getting a Level 12 boss monster. I expect a Level 12 Gizmek, in adddition to some sort of Level 12 Insect monster, and Psychic monster.

Since there is no Duel Terminal archetype with a Level 12 boss monster, none of the Duel Terminal archetypes archetypes have a good chance of having a Level 12 boss.

Edit: Miswrote Nemleria as Nemrelia. It has been corrected.

Personally I'm of the theory that it's actually Prior of the Ice Barrier that we're seeing here. As in, what we're seeing is the FIRST time the three dragons were sealed away and the creation of the original Ice Barrier. Mostly because it frees up Ascalon to be the one to help Spirit of the Ice Barrier reseal the dragons later.

Dragunity Oubliette

It's Dragunity vs the Ice Barrier Dragons! Otherwise titled: The Ice Barrier Dragons got a little unruly and had to be put in permanent time out by our good friend Areadbhair and Sacred Spirit of the Ice Barrier. The framing of this card is genuinely interesting. While there technically isn't any visible "seal" being created over these three dragons, Areadbhair's body completely encircles them along the card border, giving the illusion of entrapment. There's so much color variation and detail work happening in the limited space that is the pit here that it's a little tough to pick out the three individual dragons (well, four if you count Areadbhair). But at least there's a nice action shot of Brionac angrily falling in while being blasted with some pretty intense looking flames. I think the light particle effects shooting upwards and out are a little much and make the outer edges of the art busy like the interior, so it probably would've been better if they were left out.

New Dragunity support from the Structure Deck is here:

*First card is Dragunity Arma Gram, Level 10 WIND Dragon with 2900/2200 stats.

**Once per turn, you can banish 2 Dragon and/or Winged Beast monsters from your GY, Special Summon this monster from your hand or GY.

**Once per turn, you can target 1 face-up monster on the field, and if you do, it loses 1000 ATK for each Equip Card you control.

**Once per turn, when an opponent’s monster is destroyed by battle and sent to the GY, you can equip it to this card.

Pretty strong for a Main Deck monster.

*Second card is Dragunity Knight - Areadbhair, a Level 10 WIND Synchro Monster with 3300/3200 stats. It requires 1 Dragunity Tuner +1+ non-Tuner monster/s.

**Once per turn, when your opponent activates a monster effect -Quick Effect-, you can banish 1 Dragunity monster from your GY, negate that activation and if you do, destroy it.

**Once per turn, if this card destroys an opponent’s monster by battle, after damage calculation, you can banish that monster.

**Once per turn, if this Synchro Summoned card is destroyed by an opponent’s card, you can destroy all Spells and Traps your opponent controls.

Yet another Level 10, but a fairly powerful one.

*Third and final card for now is Dragunity Glow, a Normal Spell.

**Once per turn, add 1 Level 5+ Dragunity monster from your Deck to your hand.

**Once per turn, you can banish this card from your GY, then target 1 Monster Card in your Spell & Trap Zone that is equipped to a Dragunity monster, Special Summon it in Defense Position.

A nice tech card.
