Cyber Angel Idaten

Cyber Angel Idaten was first introduced to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game in the 2017 expansion Duelist Pack: Dimensional Guardians. The card is based on the Cyber Angel archetype utilized by the character Alexis Rhodes in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX animated series, representing a transition of ritual summoning mechanics into the modern era of the game. Designed by Konami's R&D team, the artwork draws from the aesthetic of divine, armored humanoid figures, characteristic of the series' focus on fusion and ritual-based mythological motifs.

As a common rarity card within the set, Idaten was designed to provide accessibility and consistency for players building Cyber Angel decks. Its design reflects a strategic shift towards ritual monsters that offer support upon being summoned, rather than acting solely as high-attack beatsticks. The card was well-received by competitive players for its ability to search for ritual spells and monsters, solidifying its place as a cornerstone of the archetype's engine.
