Ryuki definitely deserves a rewatch! I may be biased because I first watched it at the age when Kamen Rider Battle Royale and deck of weapon were Coolest Concept Ever, but a lot of the show still holds up really well.

On Scissors, I totally got why he had to die so fast, but I'd also argue that his downfall could be even more "surprising and impactful" if they just spend a bit more time fleshing him out as a character and an actual threat. But yeah, I guess the priority of the show is to have him more as a symbol of the high stakes in Rider battle than an actual character.
