More Ramblings? Let’s Just Call It News

It’s been an eventful week. Lots of news and spoilers for FFTCG. And, we like that. It means we’ll soon be cracking some new packs. Hopefully with better luck this time.

Avalanche Vs Shinra Starter Set will be coming out next Friday. They should be here on time, but you can never be certain. Not at the moment. There are shipping delays everywhere and there is no end in sight for them. But, we’re feeling optimistic.

We should have a couple more Opus XIV videos coming up, we still have a booster box and a couple of Prerelease kits to crack open. Still looking for that elusive Cloud Full Art. It’s got to turn up somewhere.

Cause sometimes when you look close enough, you’ll find things you missed at the warehouse. Like Opus XI Prerelease kits, or Tifa Tins just laying in the corner, because you misplaced them and thought they were sold already. Doesn’t matter the reason, we have them. And if we look a little deeper we might just find some more Opus XIII boxes. Maybe Lightning isn’t that far off.

War of the Visions

-Spoiler Alert-

Muraga is one hungry fellow, and because of that everybody dies. I think 10 characters we’re devoured or slain by Muraga in the last chapter. I lost count. Except for King Robb. That was Mont.

Damn those snakes. Every single last one of them. They are the bane of my party’s existence. I can’t seem to get passst … well I just did as I was writing this. Luckily, for me I can hire a companion. Starlight Elena, just cut those snakes down just like King Robb did. Only, she didn’t get bit by them.

And, Englebert is still alive. This is getting interesting.

-End Spoilers-

Don’t forget.

What Happened?

If you’ve been wondering were all the content has gone, we were working behind the scenes here. Re-organizing the office. And, we’re not even half-way done. But, It’s just something we have to do from time to time. Not just re-organizing, but we painted and got the carpets cleaned. And now it smells better.

Well as you might have heard, we will be hosting a pre-release event, but the date might be different than what we had planned. From what I here there is a delay in the shipments. Not by Square-Enix or the distributor, but if you watch the news at all, you would have seen that there are over 80 Cargo ships waiting to enter the Port of Los Angeles. We’ll make the announcement as soon as we know when the kits will be coming in.

Speaking of which, the Shinra vs Avalanche Dual Decks are coming out this month. If there is a delay on those we will know for certain that there will be one for Crystal Dominion as well.

War of the Visions you ask?

-Spoiler Alert-

Like I said before the game has started to grow on me. Mont has just become King. That is where I am at, at the moment. The scene between Mont and Sterne, in my eyes, was the end of the Prologue. The war that will start between the two brothers looks to be interesting.

There are plenty of characters that I like. Dorando and Gargas. Who would have thought that these two would be taking care of a little boy, and entrusting him with one of the ancient relics?

Gilgamesh, the Winged one. Such a powerful card in FFTCG, you can see why they made the card the way they did.

Helena, the Black Rose. Presumably dead. I haven’t seen much of her after she died as the Queen, but whenever I use her as a companion she annihilates the opposition. I can have just Helena on the battlefield and she’ll take care of everything for me.

-End Spoilers-

One more thing.

Do you got something you would like to share with the world? About Final Fantasy TCG, Final Fantasy in general or any other TCGs out there. Well drop us a line. Here, or hit the Contact us in the Menu and let us know through there. We’ll probably give it it’s own post as well.

Looking to hear from you.

Up on Cloud 9

The card you’ve all been waiting for. Ex-SOLDIER, Mercenary for Hire, Cloud!!!

On to the card

4CP/Earth
Forward
Job : SOLDIER
Category : DFF – VII
Legend
8000 Power

“If your opponent controls any Forwards, Cloud gains +2000 Power.

When Cloud attacks, choose 1 Forward. It gains “If possible, this Forward must block.” until the end of the turn.
Discard 1 Category VII card: Until the end of the turn, Cloud gains +1000 power and “Cloud cannot be chosen by your opponent’s abilities.”

There you have it, the card everyone is looking for in this set. Well, not this one, but the Full Art Foil. Just looking at the art work on this card, Cloud performing his Cross-Slash. It’s just a great looking card.

All you need is your opponent to control 1 Forward and Cloud immediately becomes a 10k body. Add Enna Kross (1-095R) for another 1k, and you have a powerful Forward that will start picking off your opponents Forwards one by one.

And since you’re playing Cloud, you know you need Tifa (14-120H), who searches for Cloud and gives him +1K every time Cloud attacks. Or any other Forward as well. Barret (14-121L) will let you grab Tifa from the Break Zone to search for Cloud when you play her.

If you want to play a FFVII themed deck, you’ll need to add the other members of AVALANCHE as well, Jessie (4-082C) to reduce the cost for Cloud and Barret, Wedge (4-076R) to search for either Tifa or Barret. And, Biggs? You can probably leave him out for now, unless we get a better Biggs in the AVALANCHE Vs. Shinra Deck that is coming out soon.

Marlene (8-085C) is also a good choice allowing you to grab Aerith, Cloud, Barret or Tifa from the Break Zone. Vincent (9-026H) to recycle Marlene after you grabbed a card from the Break Zone. You might as well play Yuffie (3-069C), simply for the fact that she is a free card is Vincent is on the field.

Plenty of other cards to play as well, I’m sure you have your own ideas as well. Let us know in the Comments.
