I converted this card with little hesitation. There are a plethora of other monsters with 1700 atk and level 4, some even with positive effects, and all of them have better defense. I cannot understand why this is an UR card, other than a no-sweat way for you to get a free UR stone jewel.
When the game first came out, it used to be the best beat stick in the game since their was no Dunames, Jerry Beans Man, Kyoshee, or Warrior, but power creep happened and Axe Raider has become outdated
Imagine an era before AOD, Neo Impact and other new packs come out, I'm sure this will be the most card you want since it has the highest attack among other level 4 monster at that time.
Same like when dunames come out on VR, everyone want that card even it was UR because of it highest attack, then after gearfried and other 1800 beater monsters start to flood the field, dunames become less popular. And I'm sure, when 1900 4 level monster come out, dunames will also be forgotten completely.
^We have Inpachi right now. Too bad, anyone hates Axe Warrior right now (memes) and I'm sure Dunames (with Inpachi) will also get the same fate as Axe Warrior in the future if we got 1900/2000 atk beaters.
She is Light fairy normal with 1800atk, she will still be usable in specific decks even if 1900 come out.
Axe raider is outshone completely in his Atribute and type.
