RatingB

Pros

  • Good attack boost.
  • Can be retrieved with his own effect.

Cons

  • Retrieving requires a tribute and prevents you from drawing a new card.

Tips

Tribute

When Axe of Despair is sent to the graveyard, you can retrieve it by tributing Black Ptera on your field. Axe of Despair will return to the top of your deck, while Black Ptera would return to your hand. You could also use the tribute to remove undesirable monsters on your field like Lava Golem, or monsters who are useless on the field like ones affected by Floodgate Trap Hole.

Direct Attack

You can equip Axe of Despair to monsters that can attack directly to give your opponent a large amount of damage. Toon decks are able to use this card for boosting direct attacks very efficiently.

Multiple attacks

Equip this card to a monster that can attack multiple times to increase the use of it's powerful attack boost.

Isn’t this Unga Bunga’s ace card?

I swear i remember it wasn't treated as an Archfiend card before in TCG. Why the heck did they change it?

It's always treated as an Archfiend card, even in TCG/OCG.
The Japanese name of this card contain デーモン (which means demon/archfiend - the word contained in other Archfiend cards), so that makes sense.

Prior to that archetype condition being added to it, it had rulings stating it was an Archfiend card in the TCG. (Actually, they had a page dedicated to the Archfiends without Archfiend in their TCG name on the site, though they missed A Deal with Dark Ruler from it.)

Apparently people forget that s/t destruction has been in this game since day 1. Plenty of ways to deal with beat sticks just think outside the box, can't be that flipping hard.

Pulled it. All I need now is Monster Reborn and no one will ever be able to stop me

Why would they release this? No "discard 1 card" effect to activate, nothing.
