If the last missing SR is Karma Cut, this box would be a huge bait so many people will run out of gems when Zexal comes

People saving gems = less money for Konami. Meanwhile they need extra money to compensate their hard work creating new world. So, here comes Karma Cut. A box that won't change the tier list but still many people will buy it especially Shiranui player.

Even if Xyz box contains Levianeer or Fiendish Chain I would still be disapponted if it doesn't give us new meta deck. I hope the new worlx box would be Dark Dimension 2.0, not Stardust Acceleration 2.0

I believe one is better as balance is the best skill for triamids and you don't want to consistently open with sphinx, also it's easily recyclable with dancer.
You need a playable card 1st turn as opening with the special summon field spell with another one isn't super consistent.

There's no problem adding him later, with valkyrie skills. Also, there are pretty OP cards that could come as his ace like Mischief or the Goddesses

Now the Triamid canncer is complete.

Of course. Instead of putting Triamid cards in the same box so that we spend less gems or cash they surely had to spread this archetype throughout many various boxes.
F**k this game.
F**k this company and all their children.

Good with Holy Guard. I remember this card. But it is so old that I was wondering if they were ever going to add it. And then we are still missing Gellenduo (I think it is spelled that way?).

Shining Angel is more generic than Nova Summoner yet people never play it

Nova summoner was an ok card... on 2009 and airknight parasath on 2004. Now they are just pathetic.

Nova lets you summon in defense, too

What is this box? It's like Konami is in competition with themselves to release the most useless boxes as of late. Free 500 gems though, that's all it's good for.

The name "Sanctuary" has caught my attention since I love sanctuaries and all mystical places, I was thinking that was going to be better, but Valkyries look weakish

Valkyries look weak but they focus on denying your opponents turn and not letting them doing anything while swarming the field and otking
