I mentioned Thunder Storm for a budget Jackknife Deck option. Running a Jackknife deck means running copies of different evolution forms of Jackknife.

Stat wise, yes Thunder Storm is better, that's true, but think about it. This card's only benefit to the Jackknife line is the Penetrate and the 1+ Soul. That's for 2 gauge. If all you're looking for is Penetrate, then for Thunder Storm, it would require 3 guage, plus this card, to have it (4 Cards in total). For Dispersal, 1 Guage and summoning it to the Left/Right Field, all by itself no less (1 Card). For Penetrate, Dispersal is better from a Guage and Deck Management point of view.

As for the 1+ Soul, this really only applies if you have Thunder Storm / Dispersal in the Center. While it means that they lose out on thier innate effects, Thunder Storm seems  better there due to the 6000 defense but it's a small benefit at best seeing as how almost every world now has access to a 6000 ATK Size 1 now, so Soulguard is the only thing keeping them on the field in most cases after an attack. Because of this, they are both effectivly no different from each other in that scenario.
