Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth is a menacing insect from the Zoo Nation. The original version of Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth has Break Ride. The new version has two powerful skills to fit Megacolony’s strategy in Cardfight!! Vanguard V. He has the Imaginary Gift: Protect when you ride him as your vanguard.
First Skill
Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth gains 10,000 power until the end of your turn. Then, send the top card of your opponent’s deck to the drop zone and Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth gains one critical if the card is a grade 1 or greater. This is a great offensive skill for a unit with Protect. Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth has 22,000 power and two Criticals. He pressures your opponent with a strong attack, and deals two damage if you can fulfill the requirement.
Furthermore, this skill is an effective counter against Oracle Think Tank. The clan has many cards with the ability to look at the deck’s top card. An opponent with Oracle Think Tank knows the top card of his or her deck. Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth does not allow your opponent to use that card for his or her advantage. If he or she has a Heal Trigger on top of the deck, then you prevent him or her from using it.
Second Skill
Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth forces your opponent to discard a card. Then, Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth gains 5,000 for each grade of the discarded card. This is a great skill to weaken an opponent’s defenses. Your opponent loses a key card for his or her strategy. Your vanguard becomes more a difficult unit to block in battle.
Furthermore, Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth forces your opponent to pick his or her poison. He or she can discard a trigger to prevent it from gaining power. However, an opponent does not want to discard a trigger because triggers have the strongest shields. Most opponents will discard a grade one unit to avoid losing a strong shield and giving a lot of power to Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth.

Card Rating:
Overall, Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth is one of the best designed cards for Megacolony from Cardfight!! Vanguard V. I like both skills with the ability to disrupt your opponent’s strategy. Unrivaled Blade Rogue, Cyclomatooth is one of the few cards to counter Oracle Think Tank. Your opponent loses resources from the deck and the hand. Those skills are great abilities to remove your opponent’s resources.
