Notes & Combos
Sleipnir is a fun addition to the runick package. He gives every runick name a form of disruption along with their typical utility/disruption effects. Had some games where summoning him going second let me get rid of problem monsters like the kashtiras, allowing for me to setup a board. Regained can also shuffle back lights/darks he banishes to stop them from returning. The token can be used as material for synchros or cartesia's effect. Overall love him and that he's an SR too.
Still don't know what ratios of the branded continuous' to play, but there are def games where I wanted etude over beast and its likely better into snake eyes.
Dark end dragon never came up but I wanted to run him as an 8 dark dragon that wasn't destruction removal/technically conditional like scarlight RDA. Scarlight is probably better but 9/10 times I was about to summon scarlight my oponents monsters were either destruction protected or over 3k.
