Dragon Knight Rulen
This is a pretty decent card in the way that Lizard Soldier Bellog is also a pretty nice card, The skill is when you guard successfully by intercepting with this card you get to retire a unit they have at rest meaning if that rear-guard was going to enable a multi attack or if it's gonna get sacrificed for a Shadow Paladin's Stride skill then you can retire before they can retire it themselves.
The only problem I see with this card aside from it fighting spots over a bunch of other good grade 2 units is that his effect is very telegraphed. He has to intercept and guard successfully meaning guarding it for a vanguard attack would make it risky because of drive checks. This card might just also eat an attack or 2 from your opponent but overall this card is pretty underwhelming. Sure it has the same skill as Bellog but it's really not the same if your opponent can see it from a mile away. You can however make a 9k + 7k column with it hit face for 16 and then intercept with it but maybe even after then you'd just rather have some other rear-guard on his spot.
This card can be used in Hulkroar/Sadegh combo decks and this card can be reason enough to consider some new variations of Handtrap Kagero. It's a very solid defensive/control card but I don't really find it as a happy medium for my current Overlord deck. If you wanted to make a really defensive deck then sure feel free to put a few of this guy in there.
Overall Rating: 5/10
