The Real kidrevenger
Raphael's Guardians seemed to break the rules a little. If you look carefully, you still needed to tribute summon ones like Grarl. So, keeping a graveyard clean of monsters is nearly impossible (I say nearly, as I have faced players that had somehow built decks that kept monsters out of the graveyard, though at personal taxation.)
Guardian Grarl's effect is like Swift Gaia's and Raphael could've simply equipped his Backup Gardna with Gravity Axe, summon Grarl, and use Backup Gardna to give his Grarl the axe. If you watch the second duel he gives elma butterfly dagger.
