B-

Riryoku is a very powerful card and ranks highly in terms of card efficiency due to its ability to both decrease your opponent’s monster ATK and add it to your own. Unlike equip cards, Riryoku could only be negated by spell jammer or counter traps which could negate spell effects. Could be included in most decks that otherwise do not use effect damage to win.

Pros

Very useful to defeat any high level attack monster.
Damage dealt is similar to direct damage, since it is the base attack of the attacking monster.
Very flexible card.

Cons

Only useful for 1 turn.

Tips

This cards effect only lasts for a turn, so use it wisely. It's usually best to use it on targets that have higher ATK than anything you have on the board or in your hand.

Riryoku works well in any beatdown deck and is necessary to decks to get high score with Over 5,000 (9,999) Damage duel assessment.

What's better this or Metamorph?

Metalmorph can make surprising plays since you can activate it during opponent's battle phase, however Riryoku's ability to target virtually anything that has ATK stat (you can also target both TWO of your OWN monsters on the field) is VERY HARD TO PASS UP. Metalmorph works better if your opponent has a slight advantage in momentum, but if you think you are stronger and want a surefire win using

(cont)...beatdown strategies, the RIRYOKU WILL NEVER FAIL YOU. :) Just be careful if you anticipated that your opponent has a lot of Magic Jammers in his/her deck.

Thanks for the response. Ic what you mean. They both have a similar effect but one is a trap card and work like a equip card, it can be activated during your opponent turn so it can work like reinforcement and mirror wall, the other is a spell card and it last for one turn only. Imo Metamorph is more versatile and can be use in many situation.

OMG. My game ramped up so much with just one addition of this card! Having ONE RIRYOKU in deck vs TWO RIRYOKUS made so much difference! Power, flexibility and versatility, Riryoku screams these all! Konami are you sure this is not a broken OP card?

you have to reach a certain stage 17, after that you just have to keep checking every 12 hours until it shows up. I still haven't seen gravekeeper's oracle since it's release too, some cards just don't want to show up i guess. it's too random sometimes.

Gravekeeper's Oracle was just made available 2 days ago. Either 1) I don't know up to this point that the cards available from the card trader VARIES from player to player, or 2) you just started playing a day ago.
