Glactic Overlord Sneak Peek

So another Sneak Peek has come and gone and we had another good time.  As I was in line for the event, it was pretty obvious that everyone wanted the same thing.  Cardcar D.  Everyone already knew that it was Secret Rare because of the video that popped up juts a few days before that showed someone opening some sneak peek packs and getting a Cardcar D.  Everyone already had a feeling that it was going to be a Secret Rare though because of those wonderful rarity upgrades.  So once we were all inside & we got to open our packs, my girlfriend and I got:

1x Number 25: Force Focus
1x Hieratic Dragon King of Atum
1x Hieratic Dragon of Nebthet
1x Hieratic Draon of Este
1x Photon Papilloperative
1x Rocket Arrow Express
1x Hieratic Seal of Reflection
1x Trial and Tribulation
2x Inzektor Ladybug
2x Watttaildragon
2x Hieratic Dragon of Su

 There were no Cardcar D's at our sneak.

I'd quickly trade it for one of these.

 So as far as the tournament went, I made it to the second round and was knocked out there by a friend of mine.  Both of my duels were good but the fatal mistake that I made was using Rocket Arrow Express.  In both games, this card was able to save me from a bit of Life Point damage but then it became a target for this:
A truly hilarious card.

So the effect of Mini-Guts is "Tribute 1 monster you control to target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; its ATK becomes 0 until the End Phase. This turn, when it is destroyed by battle and sent to their Graveyard: Inflict damage to your opponent equal to its original ATK in the Graveyard."  So against a 5000ATK monster, expect hilarious results. One thing I really wish I would have pulled is the Gaia Dragon, the Thunder Charger.  Anybody who runs any Rank 5's or 6's.  Gaia is completely broken in the Hieratic look once all the Atum's are used up.  Once the set drops I'll try to scoop up a couple as fast as possible.  Everyone seemed to have a great time at sneak and I don't really have much more to say about the set.  Thanks for reading!
