[Written] Lady of the Red

[Darj]

Lady of the Red
FIRE/Dragon/Xyz/Effect
Rank: 7
ATK: 2100
DEF: 2400
2 Level 7 monsters

If this card is Xyz Summoned: You can Set, directly from your Deck, 1 "Dragon" Spell/Trap Card that includes "Dragon monster" in its text. During your opponent's turn, if a card or effect is activated (Quick Effect): You can target 1 face-up card on the field; destroy it. You can only use each effect of "Lady of the Red" once per turn.

 

Made this for one of those "Create a card" games and decided to bring it up here.

As you may have noticed, the Rank7 pool is lacking of generic "floodgates", monsters with Quick Effect disruption, while other pools have stuff like Baguska, Dweller, Tornado Dragon, Strike Bounzer, Hope Harbinger, Felgrand Knight, Durendal, etc. Granted, there is Absolute Dragon --> float into Vortex, but that's bound to Pendulum decks. This is intended to fill that gap, and with an effect that kinda sorta makes a nod to Lord of the Red. It's Rank7 because of Red-Eyes Black Dragon's Level7, plus it has its inverted ATK/DEF for an extra hint of flavor.

However, IMO the first effect is the more fun part about this card. It can grab fun cards like Dragon's Ravine, Shrine, Mirror, Return of the Dragon Lords, Melody of Awakening Dragon, even potential techs like Wingbeat of a Giant Dragon, Dragon's Bind, etc.

 

Needless to say, it can also grab cards with "Dragon-Type" in their text. I don't think it's necessary to state it since that's not an official term anymore.

 

IDK if this is actually a better Rank7 pick than, let's say, Tomahawk, but at least the option of going for a floodgate is there. Thoughts?
