Top Player Council Thoughts

superforms:

Loading... now at 3x is really cool since he's a great facilitator at moving cards where they need to be (big guys like Loading... or Loading... to the grave, and normal summons like Loading... or Loading... to the hand). Equipping Crab with Loading... to dump a Dioxogre and search a Valkyria is a great 2-card opener since Dioxogre will be summoned when Crab is destroyed and Crab will be fodder for Dioxogre's effect.

Loading... is an interesting addition but best-case scenario you set him turn 1, your opponent swings into him (and he survives), you Gemini summon him on your turn to pull a Dioxogre out of your hand, and without Loading... Dioxogre won't have his effect right away. His level modulation effect is meant to bring out the Xyz monster Loading... , which we obviously don't have, but it could also be useful with Beatdown . Annoyingly, his 2100 DEF isn't enough to stand up to a Loading... /Loading... under Loading... .

Chemicritters probably won't give rise to a new top-tier deck, but they do have some very solid turn 1 plays (Crab + Supervise, set Oxy Ox, or even set Loading... since banishing effects are rarer now), and a good turn 1 is one of the most important features of a top Duel Links deck. On top of that they have access to strong destruction effects (from Dioxogre and Darkstorm) that give the deck some real power. It will definitely be a fun deck to play around with.

For the others, Loading... has a really strong effect but I don't know quite where you'd put him. (Thank goodness he wasn't in the game with the original Three-Star Demotion though.) Loading... could potentially be played as a 1-of in Vampires to recycle resources for Kingdom's effect, but opening it early would be pretty bad.
