## Card Explanation

While being outshadowed by worst gift, it is still very capable of winning the metagame by itself and is sure to become a major metagame force.

Its first ability is Revolution Change from a Light or Water dragon that costs 5 or more. Nbaba, Nbibi and Emeralda, Pitch Dragon Elemental can do the job pretty well, but unfortunately Gaial Kaiser, the Victorious cannot be used since it barely escapes the Darkness/Fire/Nature circle used on other Revolutionary Teams. As a result, there is currently not many reliable change bait for it that have speed attacker. While it is an Evolution Creature, Valkyrie Lupia, Sky Lord Dragonmech can be used to search it out, Revolution Change on it and to be reused to search another copy again.

However, once this is got past, what awaits is a total monster.

When it is put into the battle zone, the player may cast a light spell that costs 5 or less from his hand for no cost and if he does not or cannot, he draws a card. This might not seem much as Heaven's Gate is deliberately 1 cost higher and thus cannot be cast, the player can cast Template:Dmwiki this way and send out some really powerful Dragons early, like Heaven's Rosia or Southern Renaissance, Resonance Dragon Elemental, use Judgement Time and Final Stop to put an end to the opponent's moves for a turn, cast Miraculous Truce to place an end to all monocolored decks or strategies, and last but not least, Bolmeteus White Flare to destroy weaker creatures/disable all opposing creatures. Overall, while seemingly narrow, the type of spells cast can be versatile and can change the outcome of the game in an instant.

And its Final Revolution is what makes it a monster; When it activates, the opponent cannot summon any creatures that cost 7 or less until the end of his next turn. This might seem weaker than its predecessor Miradante, Time Revolution but it is actually extremely strong as it can prevent the opponent from summoning Mega Manalock Dragon for a revenge strike, prevents MaltNEXT, Ultra War Dragon Ruler and other high power Draguners that can change the game in an instant, prevents infamous creature shield triggers such as Death Hands, Misfortune Emperor ruining the party, and preventing counter attacks by Evil Heat, Screaming Demon Dragon in Dogiragon Buster decks.

As its sheer card power suggests, it has been seen in various appearances in the metagame, including Southern Renaissance decks, but the most infamous belongs to a rogue deck involving it along with Bolshack NEX, Valkyrie Lupia, Sky Lord Dragonmech, Scramble Change and Mega Manalock Dragon appearing in the 3rd runner up of Grand Prix.
