Furthermore, this ability is an useful effect for regaining Sealed Blaze Sword, Prithivih. This Arms sends itself to the drop zone after you use its effects. It is a powerful Arms for Sealed Blaze Maiden, Bavsargra. I recommend using the second ability of Sealed Blaze Dragon, Samahdi, and regain access to this card if you do not have a copy of it in your hand.

The abilities of other units are your only options to return this unit from the drop zone to the field. The abilities of those units will have a cost.

Premium Format:
Sealed Blaze Dragon, Samahdi is a bad card for the Premium Format. Both of its abilities are too slow. This rear-guard requires your vanguard to have two Arms and the second ability returns an Arms card from the drop zone to the hand. These abilities will not have a consistent impact due to their slowness in the premium format.
Furthermore, Sealed Blaze Dragon, Samahdi only fits in a deck with Sealed Blaze Maiden, Bavsargra because she is the only vanguard with Arms cards at this time. This grade one unit does not provide value to the other decks of the Dragon Empire in the premium format. This rear-guard is a vanilla card in all other decks from this nation.
In addition, Seal Blaze Dragon Samahdi needs generic support form G-Units in the premium format, and it needs G-Units to empower it because this unit requires Arms for its first ability. Supreme Heavenly Emperor Dragon, Blazing Burst Dragon is a good card for this rear-guard. This G-Unit adds 10,000 power to all of your rear-guards and the total power of Seal Blaze Dragon Samahdi becomes 18,000.
