Wowsers, talk about a good card. If you asked me, UDE should've made this card the other Secret Rare, since Invader of Darkness is a weakling compared to this card. Also, it would've fit much better, since they're both like... Envoy of the whatever... you get my point.
Pros:
Warrior
Awesome stats
GREAT GREAT Effect(s)
AWESOME ARTWORK
Great way to summon
Can easily take care of Effect Monsters
Cons:
Requires 1 Dark and 1 Light to summon
Ultra Rare
Can only activate ONE EFFECT! *boo-hoo*
Spell and Traps totally ownz him
Wowsers, this is one good card. And to make it an ultra rare... darn, at least it'll be easier to obtain. Anywho, this guy is an equivalent of a BEWD, with effects! First off, you can't Tribute Summon this guy, which is a plus IMO. This allows you to Normal Summon another monster, and then BOOM this guy goes in play. The only bad thing I can see is that he requires 1 Dark and 1 Light monster to be removed, which is a total no-no. Dark and Light are direct opposites, but if you play a deck mainly for this guy and Chaos Emperor Dragon, then BAM, you've just chose the right deck. This guy has great effects. First off, you can remove a monster from the field! ANY MONSTER, but the bad thing is that you can't attack if you do that. But thats not too bad. But I'm sure most people would use the 2nd effect MUCH MORE. If you destroy a monster, then BAM, you can attack again. He's like a Hayabusa Knight... with 2 AXES BUILT IN! WHOOO.. I sure hope I can get a hand on one of these.
Rating in Dark/Light Deck- 10/10
Rating in Warrior Deck - 8/10
Rating in any other deck - 5/10 |

Black Luster Solder - Envoy of the Beginning - IOC
Great way to start the week. Anyway, this pup's a powerhouse. His ATK and DEF are equal to the Black Luster Solder, and he has his own ritualistic effect, but this awe-worthy card has a killer effect. Make it TWO killer effects! Bring this sucka out and tear a hole in your opponent's field big enough to cram an airliner through. A major player in this new set. Should be even rarer than it is!

Black Luster Soldier-Envoy of the Beginning
this is one scary card. My brother already have one and he been winning against me badly. have the same atk and def as black luster soldier but different attribute. the effect of removing a monster from play or attacking twice is crazy. but there always a way to stop powerful cards like this.

This card can only be Special Summoned by removing 1 LIGHT and 1 DARK monster in your Graveyard from play. Once during each of your turns, you can select and activate 1 of the following effects:
:- Remove 1 monster on the field from play. If you activate this effect, this card cannot attack this turn.
:- If this card destroyed your opponent's monster as a result of battle, it can attack once again in a row.
Hmmm. Difficult. He's Lv 8(wich i hate(it rhymes!!)), but he can only be special summoned by removing 2 monsters from play. Light and dark are 2 opposite types, wich is gonna be difficult to combinate. It would be possible in a Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning(BLS) deck. His effects are nice! Removing a monster a turn without BLS attacking is a fun effect, and can hurt your opponent(what WOTBF?, she's removed!) always!(except with DD scout plane, but leave that out of this). The 2nd effect is usefull sometimes, but you'll keep him for the 1st one(except when facing scapegoat, Nimble Momonga... offcourse). I guess this card can do in some decks(preferrable Light/Dark or even better just a BLS deck), but it's a card that demands some special cards in the deck.
Pro's:
Nice effects
Tributes made by removing
Warrior(gains warrior benefits AKA freed, marauding captain, A. forces...)
Pretty Stats
Cons:
Summoning includes removing cards
Easily destroyed
Ultra Rare
Well, i think i'll give this card a 10/10 in a BLS deck and a 5/10 in any other deck
Artwork: Cooooool!!! I want that armor!!!!!: 4/5

A Black Luster Solder that isn't Black Luster Solder. Nice. Again, I wonder if the sanity of the card designers is gone. Oh, well, this screw up is the Americans' fault. Anyway, ignoring the name, this card ROCKS! I would kill or die to own it. It's effects are killer, and my deck is FILLED with light and dark monsters. Though, some people don't have decks filled like that.
Eh, sucks to be them.
I give it a 10 out of 10!
