bones deck yugioh Yu-Gi-Oh! Wiki Red Dragon Archfiend featuring Branded

If youve ever played against a deck that likes to stall, youve had the distinct (dis)pleasure of getting to know this creature

If you have delirium, its 4 mana to draw three, while the going rate for 4-mana instants tends to be two cards, as with Glimmer of Genius, Hieroglyphic Illumination, and so on

Hydreigon ex's first attack, Crashing Headbutt, costs two Darkness-type energy and discards the top three cards of the opponent's deck

What really pushes the card over the edge is that last ability

Nowadays, its played mostly to fight Crashing Footfalls and Living End due to the printing of Force of Negation and Shardless Agent, making cascade decks tier 1

Despite being a Common rarity, its Winner stamp and event-specific theme elevate it well beyond standard promos
