"Hedge Guard" Rating Score by みめっと

The monster that Aki used in the anime 5D's, which is of the same lineage as Ivy Wall, with the mystery of whether or not it should really be called a monster.
By sending it from your hand to his GY during battle damage calculation, the effect is that your own monster that fights that battle will not be destroyed in battle, but his ATK will be halved.
When used on monsters in Defense Position to avoid being destroyed in battle, there is no disadvantage, and when used on monsters in Attack Position, the battles damage received increases, but destruction is avoided, so you can continue by fighting. Good compatibility with monsters that trigger effects.
With monsters that inflict battle damage on the opponent instead, there is synergy in terms of her own ATK down.
It's an effect that activates in your hand during damage calculation, so you can use it no matter which side you're attacking from, so you can say that it's use is limited, but its surprise ability is high.
However, he can avoid being destroyed by battle only once during the damage calculation when the effect is activated, and his ATK is still halved, so if there are other opponent monsters that can be attacked, the battles damage he receives will be increased. Note that it can be large.
Even by itself, it is a wall of 2100 DEF, which is a high level for a low-class monster, and since it is a level 3 monster with ATK 0 and is a Plant, it is revived from debris and used as an S material for Black Rose, and its effect is suitable as his GY cost. At that time, the height of the tower was also highly regarded.
Among the monsters used by Aki in the play, it's not particularly strong, but it's not so weak that it's completely useless, so it's just an average monster.
