I try and put my "Drum" thing, as you call, it aside for card combos. I know it's not fully automatic, but the skill even activates on it's own when it attacks... This card is called on top of a card, gaining it's soul. It's kinda automatic if it gains everything from the start, rather than call this, and have to fill up the soul and not get certain things out as easily. The draw power is pretty bad in SDW and Arms Controller doesn't work as well as it should, and with the support for putting units in the drop from the deck, rather than wasting even more from the hand, and using Drum to get that card back, is actually pretty good. You can have your tanking card out quicker than the glove. With Alma, it can be seriously better than the glove. You have to pay a gauge, discard a card, choose a card other than the one discarded, and put it into the soul of a monster. Drum is called, then WOW, you get your soul constantly for free, and for the 1 gauge of Alma, that just adds more to the soul. Then, going back to the glove combo, you have to pay another gauge for this, 2 gauge and a discard, then, no soul other than that 1 from the glove, still, you pay more for this, rather than 2-3 gauge without wasting as much cards from hand, and gaining drop zone soul like the glove. Both require something in the drop, but you end up wasting more when you use the glove after calling this. 3 cards from hand, 1 equipping, 1 calling, and 1 discarding. Then the gauge is 2, but that's more cards from hand. The Drum combo is 2 cards from hand. 1. Drum 2. Alma. Anything else being used in the combo adds more to both counts, but still.The glove isn't always the best, and often uses up more of SDW's hand resources more than it should. When this is called on Drum, it gains all of his soul. The glove requires a bigger set up to gain more soul. Drum regains any lost soul when attacking, and fills the soul up quicker, even when you just call him only.
