![]() ![]() It’s had past success in other Dragon Decks for being a searchable Level 8 Dragon and it was the strongest monster in the earliest formats to have in terms of base stats. Blue-Eyes is a card I expect to get more fanfare as the years go on since it’s probably the most beloved of the three aces, and my personal favorite of the three as well. The Deck has some decent combo potential and back in 2016, it’s power was enough to win the World Championship. Blue-Eyes is probably the strongest of the three aces, and not just because of base stats alone. ![]() Blue-Eyes also has some fine Spells and Traps like True Light and Ultimate Fusion alongisde some more generic cards that seem designed to also boost Blue-Eyes White Dragon like Silver’s Cry and Return of the Dragon Lords. There are several other Level 8 Blue-Eyes cards like Dragon Spriit of White, Blue-Eyes Abyss Dragon, Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon, and Blue-Eyes Solid Dragon. There’s also the 2 Synchros the archetype has with Blue-Eyes Spirit Dragon and Azure-Eyes Sliver Dragon. You got a free Blue-Eyes White Dragon basically for having the orignal in hand with Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon, who also pops cards, alongisde a ton of Level 1 Tuners that support Blue-Eyes stuff like Sage with Eyes of Blue, The White Stone of Ancients, The White Stone of Legend, and more. Blue-Eyes, similar to Red-Eyes and Dark Magician, has had a ton of support to make it more viable. 3000 is the peak for the vanilla monsters and few effect monsters get a higher stat, and it has the great combo of LIGHT and Dragon. There’s something about that art that stands above the rest for me.Ģ0 years ago today was the first review for Pojo, and it was one of the most iconic cards in the game’s history, so it’s only fitting we return 20 years later to the day to look at that same card to end this week off: Blue-Eyes White Dragon.īlue-Eyes is a Level 8 LIGHT Dragon with 3000 ATK and 2500 DEF. Competitive? That, like Dark Magician, is left up to support, the ban list, and players.Īrt-5/5- Like Dark Magician, the Starter Deck version is my favorite. Blue-Eyes White Dragon will always be iconic, supported, and nostalgic. Just when you think they’ve made every bit of support for it, Konami gives us another, and will likely until the game ends. It touched greatness at the Tier 1 level which Dark Magician cannot say. Would expect nothing-less for one of the most iconic cards in the game. It has its own Fusion Spell, its own Ritual Spell, it’s own Raigeki, and a sub-set of monsters to give its archetype a chance. ![]() In terms of Spell/Trap support, the previously mentioned True Light is up there, while Bingo Machine, Go!!! is still one of the better Spell cards to use in the dedicated archetype. Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon and Blue-Eyes Alternative Dragon may be the best Main Deck alterations of BEWD because of their ease of Special Summoning and the advantage they can grant the player. White Stone of Legend and White Stone of Ancients helps get to your BEWD, while True Light is to this legendary dragon what Eternal Soul is to Dark Magician. ![]() With 16 different versions of itself, it does not lack support from other versions of itself alongside “Eyes of Blue” monsters to help along. BEWD has taken on many different forms and gotten larger throughout the years much like its counterpart, but BEWD has been about aggro over strategy. Allure helped DM but Trade-In helped BEWD more. Once the strongest attacker in the earliest part of the game, BEWD was more useful than DM in the beginning: same amount of tributes but 500ATK more and had Lord of D helping out with the summoning and protection. Blue-Eyes White Dragon finishes the anniversary week, fitting for the other most iconic card in the game. ![]()
