For those worried about this card's lifelink, here's the flavor from Dragon Thunder:

Key points of using Ancient World! Do not fear Lifelink! Gain is more than loss! Place size 3 monsters in the center and fight! Not for defense, but fight with the resolution that you will be defeated along with it!

So, in other words, even if this didn't have lifelink, it's more than likely you would lose if you lost this monster. Also, consider the fact that this is size 3 and has soulguard 4 and 6k defense, so this is very, very difficult to kill. In fact, this is probably the most difficult monster to kill of all at this point in time.

For those worried about getting those monsters in the drop zone: the two revealed so far are hand traps and I am assuming that at least one of the others is as well (it's possible the fourth is a size 3, considering both of the ones revealed require a size 3 out in order to be used).

The only real issue I see with this card is being able to get all five cards in hand at some point, so hopefully there will be a card (or cards) that search to help set up this behemoth. Possibly one or both of the two unrevealed ones.

I hope this long-winded analysis helped change how you view this monster, as this is one of my favorites in this game.
