Now this is a fantastic card. High HP, reasonable retreat, and a resistance to fighting making it an amazing tech in lightning decks against fighting foes. The attacks are also good. A DCE and a stadium allow for Tornadus to do a first turn 60. Then next turn, he'll be hitting for 100, enough to 2HKO the toughest opponents, all for the very reasonable cost of 3 colorless. Even the drawback of a potential discard isn't too bad if you're playing eels or dark patch.
I think it's even better now than before. Not only is it a great counter to landourus, it also benefits from it since lightning decks have something to fear. And it works great with the new stadium card we got. An all around great card. 9.5
Artwork: 10 (awesome 3d effects)

I used to dislike this card due to the popularity of ZekEels and RaiEels, but I think their popularity will drop with Landorus EX being released. I think between Landorus EX, Terrakion/Garbodor, and anything else that uses fighting, Tornadus has some playability now. It does OK against Darkrai, almost singlehandedly demolsihes any Fighting-types. It still loses to Eels most of the time, but has the potential to get them early for a DCE, and can potentially just KO All the tynamos. I'll give it an 8.5/10, but potentially more because of the rise of fighting-types.
Artwork is cool on the regular 9.5/10. Full Arts is lame 5/10.

Tornadus has the speed necessary to decimate Stage 2 deck variants. Aspertia gym also makes this card even better.
This card is a great addition to any deck that runs atleast 2 DCE's and a stadium. 60 damage first turn is insane, and can disrupt any deck from the go, not to mention the donking factor
Playabilty: 9.8/10
Artwork regular: 9/10 (quite nice, the cgi is donw very well
Artwork fullart: 8.2/10 (could have been a lot better but hey, It's still a nice card regardless.)
