It is Junkarm pretty much and getting cards out of your discard can never be bad.
However when matched up against other ace specs it's hard to justify putting it in your deck over computer search or even scramble switch.

I prefer this one over Comp search, because I feel things you'll need to win later on
WILL be in your discard. I know people can argue but I prefer this one.

Dowsing late game for that a catcher, with no catchers in your deck..PRICELESS.

I have it, and not C. Search. Therefore, I will probably be biased to this one. Though, I would appreciate the extra possibility of a search early game in my decks, this is very useful mid to late game, while C. Search is only good early.

My Ace Spec of choice. I want to test with Scramble Switch but this card turns all my one ofs into two.

10/10 for allowing huge plays.

I think I like this better than computer search. Outside of sableye, recovery cards are something that are lacking. Late game, this serves as the 5th catcher/laser/switch which can win you the game right there. But it's not bad earily game since it can serve as an additional supporter (or even bicycle). If you draw into this with Bicycle, you have another shot at getting what you need and can still play your supporter for the turn.

I'd give this a 10, but the ace spec thing hurts (though provides some necessary balance on a powerful card).
