Yu-Gi-Oh!'s next Legendary Duelist set, Synchro Storm, is coming soon! You can head on over and check out the Booster Box and Single Packs already, but keep reading if your after a little insight into what the set could give you!
Of course, we would be remiss to not mention the cover card of this set, Crystal Clear Wing Synchro Dragon! This big, versatile Dragon can give itself protection from pretty much anything, on top of being able to negate and destroy any effect too! It's pretty much the perfect card and a beautiful combination of the Clear and Crystal Wing's that came before it! Throughout this entire card list there's a 'Wind' theme, with archetypes like Speedroid and Lyrilusc getting a ton of support in this one!
Starting with the Machines, we've got Hi-Speedroid Cork Shooter, a Synchro tuner monster that can grab you that perfect Speedroid Spell or Trap you need, or let you put the things you used to summon this card back onto the field! There's also Hi-Speedroid Clear Wing Rider, a level 11 Synchro monster with 3500 ATK! This one lets you shuffle your 'Wind' monsters back into your deck, destroying the opponent's cards in the process, but also lets you tribute it (on your opponent's turn) to get out two level 7 'Wind' Synchro monsters with different names from each other! Amazing!
Lyrilusc used to be such a small archetype, but is getting loads of support in this one! Like Lyrilusc - Celestine Wagtail that lets you add an in-archetype Spell/Trap to your hand on special summon, but also can attach to an Lyrilusc XYZ as material from the GY! Then we've got Lyrilusc - Ensemblue Robin, a new XYZ for the archetype that gains 500 ATK for each material its got, and can return your opponent's special summoned monsters to their hand!
This set introduces us to the new 'Fleur' archetype, 'Wind' and 'Dark' monsters with beautiful art! Baronne de Fleur not only has some targeting destruction and quick negation, but can also special summon a level 9 or lower monster from the GY! Speaking of which, we have Sorciere de Fleur, that can get out an opponent's monster from their GY onto your side of the field for further Synchro plays!
There are a few other cool bits in this set like a reprint of Noble Knight Joan and some generic 'Synchron' support too! If you like the look of it, be sure to head on over to the product page and check it out before it comes out on the 28th of October!
