Premium Format:
Aurora Star, Coral (D Series) is not an effective vanguard in the premium format. Bushiroad did not design this card for this part of the game. She is designed for the D-Standard Format due to her third ability requires energy blasts. Persona Ride does not have a lot of value in most decks in the premium format.
However, you can still build a deck with Aurora Star, Coral (D Series). She can use the support from the V-Premium Format. The deck will not be at its best with this version of Aurora Star, Coral.
The archetype of Coral has multiple G-Units. Arcadia Star, Coral and Frontier Star, Coral are good G-Units for the deck. They can use Aurora Star, Coral (D Series) as their hearts for their abilities.
