I don't know about that. Scraps might be a force to be reckoned with. Then again, Scraps are being split into DREV and Startrike, so it might be the latter set that has the best of the archetype.

Exactly. If all the Scraps, or at least the most prominent or majority of them, were being released in DREV, then I'd say that DREV would be a game-changer. But since it seems to be a pretty even split (or it might lean more towards STBL, now that we know about Scrap Twin) DREV doesn't seem like it would leave too much of an impact. STBL will probably take that honor.

I take back what I've said. It looks like you and I will have something to look forward to in this set. Fabled Raven and Mystical Refpanel are confirmed to be two of the previously OCG-exclusive cards for this set, along with Stygian Street Patrol. It also seems like Pot of Duality (Greederosity) will be upped a few rarities, considering how amazing it is ( Shriek Article) |

Mystical Refpanel? Are you serious? It's about time!! And...Fabled Raven, too? This set has just become a favorite of mine. It does look like PoD will have a crazy rarity, and Raven and Refpanel probably will too, which is disappointing. But on the other hand, it just makes my Infernity deck shinier! EDIT: Official Product LinkRelease: August 17 |

Refpanel might not be too high a rarity. I'm guessing a Super at most. Raven, on the other hand, might not be so lucky.

If we're going by effect then Refpanel will probably be a Super. But, there are always those few cards that have rarities way too high for their effects. Then again, Refpanel's effect is pretty good. I'm hoping for it to be a Super, but I have a feeling it will be higher.

Well, we can eliminate certain rarities.
No way will it be common or rare. Super is a decent possibility. Ultra is understandable but less than Super. Secret is pretty but it's very unreasonable, I think. Sure the TCG does have some unreasonable rarities but I think a Secret Refpanel would be taking it way too far.

A number of cards in TSHD weren't effective enough to be Secrets but they were still made that way. The more I think about it, the more I think Refpanel might actually be made into a Secret :[

Well just thinking about it isn't going to really affect it. I still say it's too soon to tell.
I just realized that Stronghold Guardian has a pretty decent effect, when used correctly. Imagine using it on Infernity Necromancer.
Also, I wonder what rarities the Amazoness will be? Konami seems to be turning this into a big deal, the "revival of the Amazoness" and such. Maybe they'll up the rarity a little for some of them. Probably for the Queen, Super seems a little low for the TCG.

Amazoness might have one to two with high rarities, but I'd say most will be lower. Maybe common to rare. Queen might be upped to an Ultra.
Stronghold is good, but a little situational in the Infernity deck. But in a Rock/Defense deck, it's quite the amazing card.
Update: One of the TCG-exclusives is a Scrap card, "Guts of Steel," that lets you select 3 Scraps in your Graveyard, your opponent picks one of them for you to Special Summon to either side of the field, and the rest get removed. Interesting, I feel this could be used in some tricky ways.
Update 2: A lot of exclusives revealed. Most of them Amazoness (3 of the 4). The other is "Super Rush Recklessly." Two OCG-exclusives were also revealed: Flamvell Poun, and finally Flamvell Archer.

It's about time (Flam Archer). Interesting TCG-exclusives. The Amazoness Scouts is really good. Can't wait to see the last of them within the next few days...

The YGO! Wiki has all the bonus cards up, one of which is a Psychic Synchro :0 The previously-OCG cards include Allies and Genex. The TCG-exclusives are basically about removed-from-play. Pretty cool, not the best but Macro Monarch would love them.

It's a nice line-up, of course lots of rarities are bumped up (you're gonna love this CN, Fabled Raven is a Secret) but this should be a pleasing pack overall. Lots of Tier 3 decks will be happy with this set, too.

Speaking of Tier 3 decks, do you think any will be bumped up a Tier with this pack? Now that we know the TCG-exclusives, I think Amazoness could be making their way to Tier 2, or maybe even 1.

Them and Beasts. Not Tier 1 but 2. All their Special Summon monsters makes for quick swarms and Synchro Summons now.
