"Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring" Rating Score by 波切

It is one of the cards that are treated as infrastructure for modern Yu-Gi-Oh, and its performance is 100 points out of 10.
While other hand trigger cards basically have the trigger condition of "discard from hand to his GY", this card "discards from hand", so there is no problem even under 《Macro Cosmos》or 《Dimension Shifter》Strong enough to use.
It's not uncommon for the game to end just by using this card in a theme with a thin initial movement, and has driven many past theme fan Decks to waste.
However, recent themes have been designed assuming that the opponent is holding this card, and the number of moves is abnormally high, and gimmicks that make this card ineffective in the first place are adopted, so you can't let your guard down. Specifically, it is powerless against "effects that set it directly on the field, effects that remove it from the Deck, effects that Special Summon from the EX Deck, etc."
In addition, it is often said that it is a "necessary evil to suppress the development of the first attack", but it can be said that it promotes the advantage of the first attack because it also stops the 《Proliferating G》used to suppress the development of the first attack. .
On the other hand, the second attacking side can also easily one-kill, so it is also true that the game will end if both sides do not have a way to stop the development.
Modern Yu-Gi-Oh has collapsed due to Konami's sloppy game design, but it seems impossible to change course now. Not even a card game that was originally balanced.
That's why the most interesting part of this game might be to accurately throw Urara and decide the must counter.
