25-052R – Ursula

Here’s a card that Yang LB can play early on.

When Ursula comes in from Yang’s ability she will search for a Monk. Making her a +2CP play.

All that’s left to do is bulk up Ursula a bit and have her attack. For when she does, you will pick a Forward and they will deal damage to each other. Hopefully Ursula has more power than the other Forward. If not, at least she’ll take out a good chunk.

But, maybe you want to break Ursula, just so you can bring her back and search for another Monk.

Or, maybe you should just stick with Opus XI Ursula.

25-053H – Atomos

This will be fun to play.

Just to mention it once more, Atomos has a way of getting rid of your Backups, when you want to make room for them. And, if you do get rid of a Backup Atomos’s cost is reduced by 2CP making him a ! cost Summon.

And, for that 1CP, you will deal damage to one of your Forwards, equal to the amount of cards that you have in your Break Zone.

Period.

Deal 49K damage to that one Forward just because you can.

Yeah, if you have 49 cards in your Break Zone, you’re probably losing the game.

While it’s fun to imagine an attack with that power, it’ll probably never happen.

25-054C – Vincent

At 2CP Vincent is cheap and a card that you can throw into any Earth deck. He plays well alone, which shouldn’t be much of a surprise since he spent most of his life sleeping in a coffin.

Vincent comes in with First Strike, and whenever Vincent attacks, he gains +4000 power, making him a 9K body, which can take down most of the opposition.

Are we done?

Nope, Vincent also has the ability to deal a Forward damage equal to his power. But the cost is high, and I don”t think that I would use that.

But, 2CP for a 9K attack, I’ll pay for that.

25-055C – Wererat

There’s a rat infestation, but not just any rats it’s Wererats.

This one might be of use though.

Wererat comes with 2 abilities. One gives one of your Forwards +1000 power, the other gives that Forward +2000 power.

Depending on the situation, both abilities can help one of your Forwards survive a block, or an attack.

Wererat might be helpful in some situations.

25-056L – Wol

I don’t know, I wouldn’t call this a Legend.

I’d say Wol, is a glorified Meat Shield, that can protect one of your Forwards from being sent to the Break Zone.

But, there is Blurred Strikes which can help you get a couple of cards.

If you decide to use Blurred Strike, you reveal the top 3 cards of your deck and add 2 of them not named Wol to your hand, the rest go to the Break Zone.

I’ve been wrong about cards before.

25-057R – Cutter

All that hardware, just to make Cole Slaw.

Cutter will slice and dice and shred all of your opponent’s dull Forwards, and send them to the Break Zone.

And when you’re done with that. Cutter can turn into a Forward and deal your opponent even more damage.

Which is something you would like to do, to try and get rid of Cutter in order to play it again.

Not a bad Monster, and there are ways to get Cutter back from the Break Zone as well.

25-058C – Black Belt

Your Tears of the Planet basic Backup that exists in all elements.

Black Belt is Earth.

You can either Break a dull Forward with 7000 power or less. Or, you can draw a card.

Black Belt can be useful in different situations, and should be considered for Sealed.
As we’ve said before, for 3CP you can do far worse.

 

25-059C – Cait Sith

This card is interesting. And, you don’t even need Cait Sith to play in a FFVII deck. You can just add him to any Earth deck and you’ll do fine.

Cait Sith comes in and you can play a Character of 2CP or less from your hand straight to the field. Making Cait SIth’s cost come down to 1CP.

And, when you’re done with that, you can just send Cait Sith into the Break Zone and grab a FFVII Character.

Yes, I did say you don’t need to play Cait Sith in a FFVII themed deck, but what’s to stop you from grabbing Cait Sith back from the Break Zone in order to play him again.

25-060H – General EX

How come I don’t remember this Character?

After looking it up I remember battling him, but that’s about it. Minor Boss that gives you Excalibur. But, we’re not talking about Final Fantasy III, were talking about FFTCG!

General comes in with Brave, and 9000 power making him a great Meat Shield.

If General leave the field for any reason, you can grab a Warrior from the Break Zone and add it to your hand.

General does have protection from your opponent’s Summons in that he cannot be chosen by them, and if General is dealt damage by your opponent’s Summons that damage becomes 0.

It’ll be hard to get General to leave the field, but hey you can search for a Warrior if General is in the Damage Zone.

25-061R – Scarmiglione

The Archfiends are getting some great cards this set.

Scarmiglione is the Forward that you never knew you needed.

For 1CP Scarmiglione can come in during your opponent’s turn with Back Attack, protecting one of your Forwards from damage reducing it by 2000. This could be just enough to keep that Forward from breaking.

Now, if that Forward is Golbez, Golbez will not be able to be chosen by your opponent’s Summons or abilities as well.

And, Scarmiglione will only cost you 1CP, that is nothing compared to the Forward that he will save.

Only draw back is that Scarmiglione only has 3000 power, but that can be good as well. All you need to do is block with Scarmiglione in order to send this Archfiend to the Break Zone, just so you can play another Scarmiglione onto the field when needed to.

25-062C – Sophie

Sophie comes in for 4CP, once she’s in you can either play a MOBIUS Forward of 3 or less onto the field, or you can search for 2 Sophies and add them to your hand.

Your total cost will come down to 1CP, or it will be a Free Play. Either way Sophie is a steal, as you’ll have an 8K body on the field.

Notice how I didn’t say Meat Shield?

Well that’s because Sophie has Thor’s Hammer. You can use it to deal some big damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards,and depending on how many Backups you have on the field, Sophie can deal that forward up to 15,000 damage. there’s a 99.9999999% chance that, that Forward will be sent to the Break Zone.

You’ll want to grab a bunch of Sophie’s and add them to your deck.

25-063C – SOLDIER Candidate

We’re getting some more SOLDIER Candidates.

This one comes in with Brave, and for 2CP you get a 5K body.

If you already have a SOLDIER Candidate in your Break Zone, this Candidate gains +2000 power, giving it a 7K body.

And, we’re not even done.

When SOLDIER Candidate attacks, all the SOLDIER Candidates gain +1000 power.

You can have 3 of these on the field at the same time, and if they all attack, all of your SOLDIER Candidates will gain +3000 power before they attack.

SOLDIER might be recruiting some strong Candidates.

25-064C – Dyne

You’re Dyne to know what this card does!

Yeah, that was terrible.

First off you won’t be playing Dyne in the begining of the game.

At least not till you have 5 Backups on the field. Cause if you don’t Dyne is just a high cost Meat Shield.

Once you do have 5 Backups on the field, you can play Dyne and you’ll choose one of your opponent’s Forwards and Dyne and that Forward will deal damage to each other.
So, it would be wise to choose a Forward with less power than Dyne.

And, at 3 points of Damage Dyne gains +1000 power. I would have changed this a little, and say if a certain FFVIII child was on the field. But, that would contain some Spoilers.

25-065R – Tifa

How many Final Fantasy VII Characters can you cast each turn?

Tifa will deal (3000 times each FFVII Character that entered the field this turn) damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards at the begining of every Attack Phase. That could mean that you can be breaking one of their Forwards, once per Attack Phase.

And, that’s not all.

Whenever Tifa attacks, all of your FFVII Forwards gain +2000 power.

You can throw Tifa into any Final Fantasy VII themed deck, and she will do wonders.

25-066L – Barret

6CP?

Yes, and it is worth it.

Barret comes in, and searches for Marlene, or a AVALANCHE Operative of 4 or less, and they go straight to the field. And, if you’re thinking what I’m thinking. You will grab Marlene.

Once Marlene enters the field you will go into your Break Zone and grab Tifa, or Cloud, or Aerith, or Barret, but we’re going to stick with Tifa. Tifa 25-065R to be exact.

This makes Barret a Free Play, as you get your 4CP back when you play Marlene on the field, and the other 2CP come back when you grab Tifa from the Break Zone. Or, Aerith, or Cloud, or Barret.

Now if you followed these instructions, at the begining of the Attack Phase, Tifa will deal 9000 damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards. And, if you already have another 4 Final Fantasy VII Characters on the field, Barret will also deal 9000 damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards.

What’s not to like?

Oh, and Barret has Brave.

25-067H – Rikku

Now this is a card that could see regular play.

Rikku comes in and plays a 3 cost Backup from your hand onto the field. Which in turn turns Rikku into a Free Play. And if the card you play draws you a card, or searches for a card, you’re coming out positive in your CP spending.

And, it doesn’t need to be an Earth Backup or an FFX Backup.

And when that Backup, or any other Backup enters the field, all the FFX Forwards that you control gain +2000 power and Brave.

Now think if you play another Backup. That’s +4000.

25-068C – Luca

We haven’t seen Luca since Opus XI, and she’s back ready to find a 2 cost Character from the top 5 cards of your deck. If you find one congratulations, you just paid 1CP to cast Luca.

Other than that, Luca will give a Forward of 2CP or less +1000 power. You can use this ability once per turn.

I don’t know if this will be much use.

But, there are worse ways to spend 3CP.

Hidden Trials – Limit Break

Shop these Singles & More @ our TCG Player Store

23-118H – Ardyn LB

The Chief Minister has grand plans.

Ardyn has found a way to bring himself back from the dead.

Simply put, when Ardyn enters the Break Zone, you can bring an Ardyn from your Limit Break deck onto the field.
The real question is, can you fill up your Limit Break deck with cards that aren’t LB? I doubt it, I’ll have to check out the rules to make sure.

This card is a turn 1 play.

As long as you have a Playset of Ardyns in your Limit Break deck, you’ll be good to go.

23-119R – Vincent LB

Well, Vincent looks like he’s ready to take on the Tsivets.

This is the Limit Break that Vincent starts the game off with, and that suggests that we will be getting the other 3 later on down the line.

Let’s take a look and see what Galian Beast does.

Vincent comes in with First Strike, and when he enters the field, you can throw a Fire Backup into the Break Zone, and deal one of your opponent’s Forwards 9000 damage. You’ll have a good chance at breaking it.

If my calculations are correct, we’ll soon have a Vincent deck equipped with all of his Limit Breaks. Might take a couple of years before we can get it, but it might be fun.

23-120R – Kuja LB

Kuja is a 5 cost Forward with 8000 power and the ability to get out of some of your opponent’s abilities, and maybe some of their Summons.

How?

It’s simple, you can just dull Kuja to Dull the Forward using that ability.

Dull/Freeze that Forward and your opponent will think twice before targeting Kuja.

 

23-121L – Cait Sith LB

Sometimes the first time you look at a card, you think it’s great.

then you look at it again and think, Huh? How is this a Legend.

It’s a decent card, don’t get me wrong, but Freezing all of your opponent’s Backups, and having them discard a card is not what I’d call Legend material.

On a side note, Cait Sith needs you to control 5 Backups in order for his ability to go off.

I’ll take a hard pass on this one.

23-122R – Cid Highwind LB

Roll of the dice. Or is it a flip of the cards?

Cid Highwind comes in on the Highwind, and gives you an airdrop right before he enters the field.

Flip three cards and if you find a Backup add it to your hand. If not well just put all the cards at the bottom of your deck. You might want to use Cid, when you only have 3 cards left. And, you better win before you run out of cards.

Is it worth playing?

Probably. You can just add it to your Limit Break deck, just so you have enough cards in it.

23-123 – Deathgaze LB

That’s a lot to pay to Break a Forward. And, that Forward also needs to be a certain cost in order for this to be effective.

There are 270 Forwards that cost 5CP. Yes, that’s a pretty big amount, but how many of those Forwards actually see play?
And there are only 2 Forwards that cost 10CP.

Unless Bhunivelze, and Garuda start seeing some play, i’d say it’s best to leave this card at home.

Odin (1-124R) costs 7CP and let’s you break any Forward you want.

23-124L – Eiko LB

Have you ever thought that you wish you had a certain Summon at a certain point of the game?

I’m sure you have, we’ve all had.

Well, Eiko here, is here to help you search for that Summon, and once you find it you can remove it from the game.

Not much help there, but once that Summon is removed from the game, you can cast it without paying the cost.

That’s a little bit better.

23-125R – Noctis LB

Even though Noctis costs 6CP, this is probably one of the better Limit Breaks.

Noctis allows you to grab a Forward from your Break Zone. Yes, there are plenty of cards that allow you to do this. The difference is that, you don’t need to rely on luck to draw the card that will grab a Forward from the Break Zone. Noctis is ready to go whenever you’d like, as long as you have the CP to pay for him.

Other than that, he’ll be a 7K body, lingering on the field.

.

23-126L – Edge

Are you Serious? Yes, serious with a capital S.

This card is amazing.

Mono-Lightning and Ninja themed decks are going to dominate in 2024 and beyond.

Might be why I’ve been selling plenty of Ninjas lately.

Edge gives you an advantage for one turn. Every Lightning Forward and Ninja deals 7000 damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards. That might be good enough to wipe the board. It might be good enough to get you the game.

Either way, you’re going to do some damage. Just need to find a way to give Edge Haste.

23-127R – Nyx LB

If you’re playing Mono-Lightning, or Kingsglaive, just throw Nyx into your Limit Break deck.

You’re bound to have a Lightning Character or a Kingsglaive Character hit the Break Zone, and when you do, you might as well play Nyx, for the whopping cost of 1CP. 0CP if you have Regis already on the field.

And, that’s all Nyx does. a glorified Meat Shield, ready to take on your opponent’s Forwards with his 9K body.

10k if you already have Lulu (1-150R) on the field.

You can’t go wrong here.

23-128R – Beatrix LB

Here’s another Knight for the Queen’s Guard.

God save the Queen, and the Forward that will be sent to the Break Zone whenever Beatrix attacks.

As long as you have 3 Knights on the field, Beatrix will be good to go, breaking a Forward once per turn.

It’s as simple as that.

Play Knights, Play Beatrix.

23-129H – Lunafreya LB

Look at the top 5 cards of your deck, and find the one with an EX Burst. Once you add it to your hand the EX Burst will go off.
This can be a great play where you grab a card with a great EX Burst that you can play right away, giving you double the EX, double the Burst. Double the damage. Double Trouble.

Or, you might get a card that you don’t need or want at that point in the game.

Now, I don’t know if these Limit Break cards are bounceable, but if they are, imagine what you can do if you keep bouncing Lunafreya.

23-130H – Luso LB

5CP to play Luso, who also searches for a Standard Unit, of a certain Element. That Element is chosen by you when Luso enters the field.

After that, whenever you play a Standard Unit onto the field, Luso gains +4000 power, giving him a 9k body until the end of the turn.

And, if you’re using Frimelda, you can play a Standard Unit each turn, giving Luso a constant 9K.

And, that’s all I got. I can’t focus anymore.

Krile’s Splinter

Krile, your Backup Warrior of Light. Taking Galuf’s spot on the team and she does a good job at it. We’re actually going to use 2 Kriles in this deck. Krile (7-068H) and Krile (18-055R). Both of these Kriles work around Summons, and the Resurgence of Power Krile also allows you to grab a FFV Forward from your Break Zone. Thus bringing us to the next Character, Galuf.

You know we had to bring in her Grandfather. And, we are going with Galuf (12-056H), any Forward that has the ability to attack twice in one turn, especially with +10K power, is a go. And when he is sent into the Break Zone, you can search for a 2 cost Earth Forward and play it onto the field.

Next we’ll add Kolka (7-069C) and Tyro (11-072R). Both are Backups and both allow us to search for Krile, or Galuf if Krile is already on the field. And since Tyro allows us to produce CP of a different Element, we will add in the rest of the Warriors of Light.

Bartz (7-059L), cause this is a great card that can attack up to 3 times. You’ll just need some extra Bartzes on hand in order to do so. 3 to be exact. So we’ll just go ahead and add Bartz (19-048C) Because he is easy to recycle back into your deck. And any other Bartz you like, we’ll go with Bartz (12-052H).

Lenna (12-109L), just help us grab a Forward from the Break Zone and play it onto the field. And, Faris to help us grab a FFV Character from the top of your deck when she enters the field. If Lenna is on the field, Faris gains +2000 power.

Ghido (3-131H)? What? Who plays Ghido? Well, Ghido can contact Krile telepathically and that is why he is in here. Ghido is a little bit of a Backup plan that can return high cost Forwards to their owner’s deck.

If we take a look back at Galuf’s ability of searching for an Earth Forward, we are grabbing Ewen (17-080R) and Aerith (16-067L).
We need some more Backups. Let’s get some protection here. Cait Sith (XIV) (6-072C) and Layle (8-088C), both of these cards will protect us from Summons.

Summons are next. We’re bringing in Syldra (3-035H) as it is the only FFV Summon that we have, and it does a pretty decent job so, we’ll keep it.

Fenrir (19-064R), because everyone likes free cards. And Titan (17-070R) to give everyone a 5K boost.

And we’ll grab Objet d’Art (12-064C) which can turn into a Forward, or give all your Forwards +2K and Brave.

Forwards

3x – Ewen (17-080R)
3x – Aerith (16-067L)
3x – Bartz (7-059L)
3x – Galuf (12-056H)
3x – Lenna (12-109L)
3x – Krile (7-068H)
3x – Faris (7-120H)
3x – Bartz (12-052H)

Backups

1x – Cait Sith (XIV (6-072C)
2x – Layle (8-088C)
3x – Ghido (3-131H)
3x – Kolka (7-069C)
3x – Krile (18-055R)
3x – Tyro (11-072R)

Summons

3x – Titan (17-070R)
3x – Fenrir (19-064R)
3x – Syldra (3-135H)

Monsters

2x – Objet d’Art (12-064C)

What would you do differently?

Posted on by — Leave a comment

Resurgence of Power : On Earth

18-052H – Ahriman

Ahriman comes in and breaks any Forward that you choose. Besides Multi-Element. For a 4 cost Monster that can turn into a Forward, this card is good.

Of course, you can only turn Ahriman into a Forward if you already have a Forward with a 9K body on the field.

Shouldn’t be too hard with Earth.

 

18-053C – Delusory Knight

1 cost Forward with 3000 power.

Cheap and effective as a blocker, simply to thwart your opponents attacks.

But, you can also just put Delusory Knight in the Break Zone and give another character protection in that it cannot be broken.

If you got an extra spot why not try it out?

18-054L – Galuf

Coming in with Brave, and 8000 power. Galuf is able to Break a Forward every time he attacks.

And if that’s not enough Fire Power, maybe you need more for some Forwards, he gains 3000 power at 3 points of damage. And, if that still isn’t enough you can remove 3 cards from the Break Zone and give him an additional 3000 power. That’s a total of 14,000 power. There’s not a Forward that can withstand that kind of damage, unless they have buffs, but even then it’s still hard to come by.

 

18-055R – Krile EX

Just lost a card you need to the Break Zone?

Have no fear, Krile here will grab that card back. But, only if it’s a Summon or a Category V Forward.

If you’re playing Krile you’re probably already playing a FFV themed deck for the most part.

I had her in my Pre-Release event and did use her quite a bit.

18-056C – Cait Sith (XI)

Here’s another card almost like Krile.

Cait Sith comes in a lets you grab a Forward from your Break Zone. Any Forward not just a certain Category. But, he doesn’t have the EX Burst like Krile does.

Other than that, Cait Sith is a little more useful after he’s been played. At 3 points of Damage he can produce CP of any element. Where Krile, after she comes in pretty much just sits there.

 

18-057C – Kolka

Simple, yet effective for what Kolka does.

One he enters the field, you can discard a Forward from your hand. After that you deal damage equal to the amount of power that Forward has to a Forward of your choosing.

Maybe you’ll be able to Break a Forward, maybe not.

Might be useful in certain situations.

18-058R – Serafie

A Forward that searches for a Forward when she enters the field. Well not just any Forward, Serafie searches for Tama. And there are 4 different Tamas.

For easiness let’s say you pick this Opus’s Tama. When he enters the field Serafie gains a Gem Counter. Not just for Tama, but for any Forward of cost 2 or less.

Why is that important? If Tama has 2 Gem Counters on her, you can remove them to draw a card.

 

18-059R – Tama

“Tama Can’t Attack,
Tama can’t Block.
Only thing about him is the way that he walks”

He can’t be chosen by Summons or abilities either.

What he can do is cancel one of your opponents Summons or abilities when they are targeting one of your Forwards.

Like a Mini-Amaterasu.

18-060H – Daisy

A meat shield if I do say so myself. Daisy is a better Paladin than Cecil.

Considering that with Warring Spirit and 3 points of Damage, your opponent will have to deal 40,000 damage to Daisy to Break her.

They’re whole front line, all the Summons and all their abilities might not be enough to take Daisy down.

This is where Cait Sith (XI) comes in, as he is able to bring her back from the Break Zone.

18-061R – Tilika EX

Simple Forward that allows you to gain Crystals.

If you need Crystals Tilika is the right card for you, as he allows you to gain a Crystal once per turn.

You can even gain a Crystal off an EX Burst.

Tilika will soon be selling Crystals on the corner in Rebena Te Ra.

18-062R – Nayo

Where did all these AVALANCHE Operatives comes form? I really should finish the FFVII Remake at some point.

Let’s see. Nayo is a decent backup who allows you to give 1 Forward either Brave, or an additional Job. And if you don’t like either of those options you can always just dull Nayo for a Crystal Point.

 

 

18-063C – Hashmal

Earth’s 1 cost Summon, that gives 1 of your Forwards +7000 power.

Now if you decide to pay the extra cost and remove 10 earth cards from the Break Zone, all your Forwards gain +7000 power.
Not too bad, considering most of the cards in your Break Zone are useless.

 

 

18-064 – Geomancer

Discard Geomancer, draw a card. And, that’s about it.

Cheap Backup to play.

 

 

 

18-065C – Polk

Polk looks like he’ll be a decent addition to the AVALANCHE deck. He easily allows you to grab an AVALANCHE Operative from the Break Zone.

Just lost Jesse to the Break Zone grab her back with Polk, Barret too for that matter. Along with the rest of the AVALANCHE cast.

Best part, is that Polk can remove himself from the field. Just use his ability to grant a Forward +2000 power and you’ll be able to recast Polk and get another AVALANCHE Operative from the Break Zone.

18-066C – Beastmaster

Yes, this card is a little interesting.

Considering you can play 3 Beastmasters, That means you can actually cast stop on up to 3 Forwards your opponent controls. While constantly being able to Stop they’re Forwards from attacking or blocking. Those 3 Forwards can be a big chunk of their line, it could also be their whole line.

These cards are definitely worth looking into.

 

18-067C – Yumcax

Here I thought this was a Monster, but nope just a Forward.

Can come in with Warp. No special abilities when he enters the field, but Yumcax has some protection on him, reducing all damage cast on him by 2000. Meaning you’ll have to hit him for 11000 to send Yumcax to the Break Zone.

And, at 3 points of Damage, Yumcax gains Brave and if Yumcax is put in the Break Zone, you get to draw 1 card.

 

18-068R – Rikku

Earth has plenty of ways to help you splash different elements into your deck. Rikku here does just that. If all your Backups are Earth, Rikku enters the field and allows them to produce CP of and Element, which is good.

No more needing specific Backups to help you pay for everything not when you have Earth Backups.

It used to be that only Tyro and Shantotto can produce any element, Rikku has opened the flood gates of CP as … well you know.

Plus she’s a Forward, you might need to find a way to protect her.

I’d say we’ll be seeing this card a lot.

Let’s not forget when you cast a Multi-Element Forward, you can grab an Earth Forward from your Break Zone.

Emissaries of Light – Opinion on Lightning

16-085C – Assassin

2 cost Backup that serves as a backup plan and a Backup.

Deals Damage to a Forward that entered this turn.

8K should be enough to break most Forwards coming in.

 

 

16-086C – Ixion

This is a pretty decent Summon. 4CP to have a Forward lose 8000 Power. And, if you’re playing a tri-color deck, it’ll also cause all of your opponents Forwards to lose 2ooo power. Including the first Forward you chose, so that will make it 10K.

 

 

 

16-087C – Puppetmaster

Puppetmaster enters the field, you discard a card and grab a better one from the Break Zone.

I like this card, and it doesn’t cost much.

Grab that Forward from the Break Zone that just got broken, and use it again as your opponent just watches as he just used all of his resources to get rid of it.

Or, something like that.

16-088L – Black Waltz 3

Black Waltz is coming out in full force. (Yes, I know that everyone already knows that, but these are what I see when I first look at the card. I’ve been very behind this Opus,)

All the Black Waltzes are helping each other come back from the dead. And, this time there is no timers on them.

It would be interesting if there was. Roll of the dice or flip a coin, and they just Stop.

Time to head to Black Mage Village.

16-089H – Zack

Zack looks like he’s ready to save Cloud once again.

He’ll come in take care of all the enemies and when he is ready to be sent to the Break Zone, Cloud will come in and finish the job.

It would have been nice if it was that easy.

But, still a pretty decent card for a FFVII deck.

 

16-090R – Seymour

Summon heavy?

Seymour, (I always end up typing Seymore) is a card you’ll play later on in the game, as with depending on how many you have in your Break Zone, Seymour will Break a Forward when he enters, and after that, he simply deals your opponents a point of Damage for removing 6 Summons from the Break Zone.

Sounds good to me.

 

16-091C – Chadley

Now, this is a decent Backup.

Lightning is getting some cards that will help you retrieve cards from the Break Zone.

For 4CP, Chadley can grab you 2 Forwards from the Break Zone. And, you don’t need to use his ability right away.

You can use it as soon as a Forward you need is sent to the Break Zone.

16-092C – Noel EX

For an expensive Common, this is a decent card.

Noel comes in and Dulls 2 Forwards. This also works off of an EX Burst as well.

Other than that, you can dull and sacrifice Noel, and Dull all of your opponents Forwards.

What did they call him in Lightning Returns? The Shadow Hunter?

 

16-093R – Noctis

You are playing a FFXV deck for certain. Kingsglaive or Noctis and Friends, or a mix of both.

Noctis here will shine in either deck.

You’ll be dulling Forwards left and right, and with the new Noctis/Ardyn deck coming out later this year, I’m sure there will be plenty of use for this one.

Noctis can watch it all happen while he sips his coffee.

16-094C – Palmer

The way Palmer is sitting there, about to sip his tea, you know that he’s got something up his sleeve. You think you have him backed into the corner, but nope.

Palmer gives you a way to grab two cards when you run out of cards.

For 2CP, I think this is a good play. He’ll grant you a CP every turn until you decide to use his ability.

 

 

16-095R – Vivi EX

Are we getting the pieces to make a Black Mage deck possible?

Grab a Black Mage from the Break Zone, when Vivi enters the field.

And deal Damage to a Forward, which increases with each Black Mage that you have on the field.
Is this the first Lightning Vivi?

 

16-096R – Byakko

Another Shijin for Kirin.

We already know, Byakko comes in and you can search for a Shijin other than Byakko.

After that, every time Byakko attacks, you can choose 1 Forward and Dull it.

 

 

16-097H – Hyoh

You can play Hyoh for 1CP, but he’s not that great. Not yet.

Hyoh becomes more valuable, the more you put into him.

You’ll want to spend another 4CP on Hyoh to make him a devastating threat.

1CP to give Hyoh Haste and up his power to 7K. After that another 3CP to up his Power to 10k and when he deals damage to your opponent you will deal 2 points instead of 1.

Just watch out for a possible Double EX Burst that might come your way.

16-098H – Spectral Keeper

Spectral Keeper is a Keeper.
Yeah, that was lame.

But, this Monster is a Monster.
OK, I’ll stop there.

But, dulling a Forward at the beginning of each Attack Phase is more than enough to place him in your deck.

And, at 3 points of Damage, Spectral Keeper becomes a Forward and every time it attacks,you will dull a Forward as well.

16-099C – Merald

Soiree Members coming out in full force.

Let’s give this Common some great enhancements, depending on how many Soiree Members are being played.

2 for Haste.
4 to Break.

I’ll need to check out some of these Soiree decks.

16-100L – Y’shtola

Every time I see a new Y’shtola card, I think to myself, I should start playing FFXIV again.

Can Scions make it once again in the Meta? I don’t really follow it, but I haven’t really heard about Scions recently. First it was Marche/Ritz, then it was Samurais, Sky Pirates, Kingsglaive and and now Soiree and The Black Waltz.

But, I believe Y’shtola can give Scions a new Pulse.

 

16-101C – Yuke

Another backup Backup.

Keep Yuke on the field until you need to use him.

After that dull, return to hand, play and Break a Forward.

 

 

16-102R – Lann

For the cost of a Monster, Lann becomes a decent card.

If you decide to remove a Monster from the Break Zone after you play Lann, he’ll gain 2K power, and you’ll dull a Forward during each of your Attack Phases.

You can also use that same Monster to pay for the cost to play Lann, thus killing 2 birds with one stone.

 

16-103C – Larva

Like this Monster.

Larva has some use, but he’ll be perfect for Lann.

Or, just play Larva to Break a Forward, and then put him in the Break Zone to see what your next draw will be.

 

16-104R – Reeve

This Reeve is more like Reeve from the game. Think about it.

Reeve comes in and you play a Forward from the Break Zone onto the field. That Forward could very well be Cait Sith.
Reeve cannot activate during the Active Phase simply because he will be controlling Cait Sith, and will be too busy to be doing anything else.

Which makes me think if we’ll be getting a decent Cait Sith in the near future.

Resurgence of Power, I’m looking at you.

16-105R – Reynn

Just like Lann, Reynn has pretty much the same abilities as her brother.

Only difference is that she gives another Forward Haste.
