Volatile Spark

I can’t believe it’s Spoiler Season. I feel like I just finished doing my reviews for Emissaries of Light.

Well, I kinda did.

And, here I thought I would have a lot more free time now.

Anyways onto the card. From beneath the Shadows comes the Shadow Hunter. Or Noel, he’s gone Commando.

2CP – Wind
Forward
Job : Commando
Category : XIII
Legend
5000 Power

“When Noel attacks, you may remove Noel from the game. If you do so, at the beginning of your next Main Phase 1, play Noel onto the field

When Noel enters the field due to an ability of Card Name Noel, select 1 of the 3 following actions. “Choose 1 Character of cost 4 or more. Break it.” “Noel deals your opponent 1 point of damage” “Search for 1 Forward and add it to your hand”

Damage 3 – Noel gains Haste.”

As you can see, Noel is the Buy a Box Promo. A decent looking card, but what Noel does, is what we’re here for.

All you need to do is play Noel onto the field, and find a way to protect him. As he’ll be removing himself from the field and re-entering during your next Main Phase 1, and dealing your opponent 1 point of damage.

Now to get the full effect of this ability you would like to get yourself to 3 points of Damage as soon as possible. That way Noel will be able to attack from the get go. If not I’m sure there’s a Backup that will grant Noel Haste. Lightning (7-102R) will be a perfect choice. You’ll just Dull Lightning, every turn to give Noel Haste, and quickly attack and remove, for that 1 point of Damage during your next Main Phase.

Since we’re already going with Wind/Lightning, might as well add Kunshira to the list. And, that shall be the base of your Noel deck. Or, at least my deck.

What are you all planning to do with this card?

It’s all Gone

Maybe it’s time for a new Computer.

I was working on the Water reviews for a couple of days now, and apparently I didn’t save anything. Does anyone know if there’s a way to recover lost progress? Didn’t think so.

It almost reminds me of the joke with Jesus and the Devil. I should start saving more.

Now, let’s see.

We have the Army of One Tournament this Sunday @ Pescadon. We’re expecting lots of people. You read about the Prizes, soon you shall see them. I’ll take some pictures and post them up on Social Media later on today.

You should come out. Game Knight Chicago holds Pop-up Markets. There should be plenty of Vendors there, including us. We’ll have your FFTCG, your Pokemon, some MetaZoo, and other TCGs as well. Boxes, Packs, Decks, Singles, Sleeves, Toploaders and most of your TCG needs.

You’re right, Astral Radiance did come out last Friday. You might be wondering why they aren’t up on the site. It’s quite simple. We were already Sold Out, by Pre-Orders and what we needed to have on hand on June, 5th.

And the FFTCG Anniversary Collection has been delayed to June, 10th. I would reserve a copy. Just in Case. It always seems like I’ll either get more than I need or not enough.

Time to restart the Water Review.

Vacation Time Is Over

Not that we actually went on vacation, but the site was on the back burner with everything that was going on. Let’s get a recap to what was going on.

First things first, was the Emissaries of Light Release event we had on April, 15th. We had a better turn out than what we were expecting. We started around midnight, and when everything was said and done the clock had struck 4AM. Everyone that managed to stay till the end, ended up winning. Just because, you can’t win if you’re not there.

The element reviews will return, once i get a chance to finish them.

Game Knight Chicago’s Pokemon Tournament also had a good turn out. 24 participants showed up to take on the $1,000 prize pool. And, we were there to cheer them on. Sort of. I was waiting for the winner to come by a Neo Genesis 1st Edition Feraligatr from me. Which they didn’t. Maybe the next one.

We got a busy month ahead of us once again. Stay tuned.
