Dreamlike Fire

28-001R – Ursula

2CP + 1CP + 1CP = 8000 damage / 2

Or something along those lines.

Ursula comes right on in, and you can pay 1 Fire CP two times. Each time you do Ursula will deal 4000 damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards.

And, if you already have received 3 points of damage, every time she deals damage to a Forward that damage increases by 1000.

Making each hit, 5000 points of damage.

This changes our formula. But, we’ll just leave it like that.

28-002R – Ardyn

This is interesting.

Ardyn is here to deplete everyone of their resources.

At 4CP, and 9000 power, he’ll be hard to get rid of.

At the beginning of each player’s Main Phase 1, you’ll have to put one Character into the Break Zone. If you don’t Ardyn will deal you one point of damage.

And at 3 points of damage, Ardyn will double the damage dealt. So, 1 point of damage will become 2 points of damage.

Ardyn will make your matches much shorter.

28-003C – Garland

Half way to board wipe.

Garland comes along and he’s taking down all of your low cost Forwards. 7000 damage to all the Forwards 2CP and below, is a serious threat, to low cost Forwards.

If the Forwards are 3CP and up, well then you’re out of luck. Even 9000 power won’t be worth the 5CP spent to play Garland.
Maybe one would be good. There are better 5 cost cards out there.

 

28-004C – Guy

Now this is what I’m talking about.

Firion and Co. is getting a great addition to the Final Fantasy II deck. If you don’t have one yet, then it’s probably time to make one.

Guy comes in and grabs either a Warrior or a Rebel from your Break Zone. Which is great because Guy only costs 2CP.

Only drawback, is if you grab a card that isn’t from Final Fantasy II then you’ll have to discard a card.

Guy has been getting some great cards lately.

28-005C – Gunbreaker

3CP and a Crystal in order to get Gunbreaker’s full potential.

That full potential includes 8000 damage dealt to a Forward of your choice.

If all you want is a Meat Shield, then you don’t need to worry about the Crystal.

Yeah, that’s it.

.

 

28-006C – Clavat

Here we go, a Crystal Generator.

One when Clavat comes in, and one when you use the ability to send her to the Break Zone.

Simple.

Easy to understand.

Not much else going on here.

28-007H – Cloud EX

Another Cloud, Another Full Art.

I’m not complaining.

I just like how they’re using his Advent Children outfit for this one.

Cloud has a couple of things going on when he enters the field.

First off, he grabs a Final Fantasy VII Character from the Break Zone.

And then he gives you a Crystal.

Need more Crystals?

Cloud can generate 1 Crystal per turn. And if you don’t need a Crystal, Cloud will give one of your Final Fantasy VII Forwards +2000 power.

Did you notice Cloud’s Job?

28-008C – Amarant

You will play Amarant second.

Or third. You can play him first, but you’ll just end up wasting a card.

Amarant deals a Forward 7000 damage when he enters the field, and that might just be enough to break most Forwards.
3CP, and 9000 power. He’s a great Meat Shield.

And, we’ll leave it at that.

 

28-009C – Jecht EX

Jecht’s first outing as a Backup. I don’t know how well the Starting Blitzball player will take that, but hes got a job to do.

Jecht comes in off the bench, and if your opponent has 3 Forwards on the field, Jecht will deal one 8000 damage.

If not, then the bench is for Jecht, and he’ll give you 1CP per turn.

 

.

28-010R – Jack Garland

Garland is Garland. I think we’ve said that before.

Jack enters the field and deals 8000 damage to a Forward.

And when your opponents plays a Forward, you can put Jack into the Break Zone and deal that Forward 9000 damage.

Jack plays like the Opus V Grenade. Only difference is that Jack will give you 1CP per turn until you decide to use his ability.

 

28-011H – Cecil

This Cecil acts more like a Dark Knight than a Paladin.

And, you need Dark Knight Cecil in order to get Cecil’s full effect.

Cecil enters the field, and if you have a Dark Knight Cecil in your Break Zone, Cecil draws you a card.

But, that’s not the reason we’ll be playing Cecil.

We’ll be playing Cecil for Cecil’s second ability, which whenever one of your Forwards is put into the Break Zone, Cecil will deal one of your opponent’s Forwards 7000 damage. Every time. Not just once per turn.

How many times did we say Cecil?

28-012C – Warrior

End game Backup.

Warrior won’t do anything meaningful, until you have 5 Backups on the field.

But, when you do Warrior will deal 7000 to a Forward of your choosing, he will then proceed to head to the Break Zone giving you room to play one more Backup.

 

 

28-013L – Tifa

Get ready for Final Fantasy VII to re-enter the Meta.

Yes, I base that off of this card. Along with all the other awesome cards we had in previous sets. Tifa is going to take the Meta by storm. If not, then I will say “What do I know?”

Tifa comes in for 3CP, 7000 Power and Brave. And depending on how many Final Fantasy VII Characters you have on the field, Tifa will deal 4000 damage for each one. You got a board full? You can get to 40K damage.

Is it worth mentioning, cause not that many Forward go over 10000 power? Of course it is!

You can also pay the extra cost of 2 Crystals, and Tifa will gain Haste, +2000 power, and the ability to attack twice in the same turn.

Nuff’ said.

I’ll take 3. Full Arts. Always Full Arts.

This card is going to be money.

28-014R – Rogue Tomato

How come I have never heard of Moogle Bounty Mayhem.

And, why is this tomato still in it’s pajamas?

Doesn’t it know that he’s about to be sent to the field? All by himself, with no Forwards to protect him, all so it can deal 4000 damage to a Forward.

Well, Rogue Tomato can become a Forward, but then you won’t be able to use it’s ability.

 

28-015H – Barret

Barret comes in from the get go and deals massive damage. 9000 to one Forward and 7000 to another.

And every time your opponent’s Forwards are sent to the Break Zone, you will gain a Crystal.

You can change Barret’s name to Crystal Generator.

Then there is Focused Shot, which will deal 10,000 damage to 2 Forwards. All you got to do is divide it up however you see fit.

This Barret will fit better into a Warrior Tribal deck. But he does generate the Crystals that Tifa needs.

28-016L – Vivi

Got to say, I’m liking this art. Even though we’ve seen these in the last few sets, Vivi is always a card that I look forward to. I’ve always wanted to build a deck around Vivi, and with this one, I might finally be able to make a decent one.

Let’s get straight to the card.

Vivi comes in for 4CP, and when he enters the field you can divide 7000 damage between any number of Forwards that your opponent controls.

You can deal 7000 to one Forward, or 1000 damage to 7 Forwards. Meaning you can hopefully break a Forward when Vivi comes in.

If you have a Final Fantasy IX Forward on the field alongside Vivi, that damage becomes 10,000 instead. Meaning more fire power for you.
There’s also a little ability that Vivi has that will deal 9000 damage to a Forward.

Only downside is that Vivi only has 5000 power, making him suspectable to your opponent’s damage.

I’ll take 3.

28-017C – Firion

For 2CP, you have a 5000 body that comes in with Haste.

And, if you have another Final Fantasy II Character on the field, Firion gains +2000 power.
And that is all there is to say about this card.

Might be a good first round play if you’re up first. Other than that. Not much going on here.

 

28-018H – Brynhildr

For 2CP this is a great Summon, I would go as far as to say Superb.

Brynhildr will either deal a Forward 5000 damage, 10K if it’s a Multi-Element, or Brynhildr will break a Monster.

And, you don’t have to choose just one. You can use both if you’d like. All you got to do is pay a Crystal.

I’ve been noticing that this set is giving us lots of Crystal play.

 

28-019R – Brute Bomber

The Brute Bomber ,the Arcadian Fighter!

Brute Bomber enters the field and deals 9000 damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards and one of your Forwards. You both get to choose who get’s dealt the damage.

And, at 3 points of damage, all damage that Brute Bomber receives is reduced by 2000.

Making Brute Bomber the perfect choice to deal himself damage.

Just make sure you play him after you already receive those 3 points of damage.

Hot Singles!

Gunslinger in the LB Deck

Shop for these Singles and more at our TCG Player Store!

26-124R – Amarant LB

Almost looks like Wolverine.

Amarant is ready to break one of your opponent’s Forwards. Just make sure you have enough Fire Power to get the job done.

What’s this Fire Power? Fire Power as we like to call it, not an official term, is the Fire Characters you have on the field. Yes, Fire Power only makes sense with Amarant.

For every 2 Fire Characters you have on the field, Amarant will deal 3000 damage to that Forward.

I’m putting this one straight into my Bomb deck.

26-125R – Heretical Knight Garland LB

Has your opponent got 2 pesky Backups that have some great abilities? Not for you, for your opponent.

Well H.K. Garland is here to give you a hand with that. At least for a turn.

When Heretical Knight Garland enters the field, he will Freeze two of your opponent’s Backups. Hopefully they’re already dull, or this won’t help you one bit.

And, that is it. Freeze 2 Backups, and then all Garland is, is a Meat Shield. Or a body if you prefer that term.

6CP, is kinda high to pay, but you can play H.K. Garland whenever you’d like as he will be waiting in your Limit Break Deck to strike, I mean Freeze your opponent.

26-126R – Yuffie LB

Need more cards?

Yuffie here, along with the help of another 2 Final Fantasy VII Forwards, will steal them …. I mean, hunt one down and bring it to your hand.

That’s more like it. Cause we all know Yuffie isn’t a thief, and stuff.

If that was all, Yuffie would have been a decent card, but she’s not done. Not even close.

You can discard 2 Final Fantasy VII cards from your hand, dull Yuffie, and Break one of your opponent’s Forwards. That comes out to 4CP. That is what we call a cheap Odin.

And, Wind doesn’t have Odin, so Yuffie should be in your Limit Break deck.

And, let’s not get started on the art.

26-127R – Dark Fina LB

This is what you call a Free Play, or something close to it.

Dark Fina is ready to be cast at a moment’s notice, simply because she is in your Limit Break Deck. But, you already know that.

Yes, she does cost 9CP, but look at what you get in return.

Once she enters the field, you may cast a Summon that costs up to 7CP. There are 3 great candidates here. Odin EX (1-124R), Phoenix (5-019L) and Zeromus, the Condemner. These 3 all cost 7CP, so technically, Dark Fina LB is a free play as you will draw a card whenever you cast a Summon.

Odin will Break a Forward, simple enough.

Your best bet will be either Phoenix or Zeromus. Phoenix will deal a Forward 8000 damage and play a Forward of 3CP or less from the Break Zone onto the field, and Zeromus will add a Forward from your Break Zone to your hand, and your opponent will put one of their Forwards into the Break Zone.

You’ll be up CP with these 2.

Since you’ll be drawing a card when you cast a Summon, I think it’s best to play Dark Fina in a Summon Heavy deck.

But, what do I know?

26-128R – Shantotto LB

In need of a big play?

Shantotto can help, and her cost confirms it!

Shantotto is your trump card whenever you need her. And, we mean whenever. For 9CP she will break 2 of your opponent’s active Forwards.

And, her Limit Break cost isn’t that big either, I would have expected it to be at least 5 considering the damage that she causes.

If you’re playing anything Lightning, it’s worth to have at least one of these in your deck.

26-129R – Refia LB

Refia is ready to be thrown into a WoFF deck, or any deck that has a few World of Final Fantasy Forwards in it.

When Refia steps on to the field, she will grab a WoFF Forward from the Break Zone, and bring that out to the field as well.

And since, this does not say any element, you can splash any Element into your deck, as Refia will be able to play it from the Break Zone.

Is WoFF going to make a comeback?

Only time will tell, but it has got cards that will make a case for it.

26-130H – Lightning

5CP to play Lightning from your Limit Break deck. You’ll need all of your LB points used for Lightning to come in with Haste.

Other than that, Lightning is a glorified Meat Shield, but she does shine when she leaves the field.

Once Lightning leaves the field, you can either play another Lightning that costs 4CP or less from your hand, or you can search for another Lightning.

There are plenty of Lightnings to choose from, all you have to do now is find the perfect one that will work for you.

Singles to Break that Limit!

Tears of the Lightning Planet

Shop for these Singles and more at our TCG Player Store!

25-069C – Varghidpolis

I don’t know about you, but Varghidpolis looks like an “armed” turnip.

…

Yeah, I’m not quitting my day job anytime soon.

Varghidpolis has 2 abilities, just like the other Monsters of the Planet.

1 will deal 1000 damage to a Forward and also dull it. The other deals 1000 damage to a Forward and dulls it.

…

That’s the same thing. One ability, but 2 ways to pay for it.

At least Varghidpolis is consistent. Plus you then can play Black Belt (25-058C) to break that dull Forward.

25-070C – Eight

3CP for a 7K body. 7? This is Eight, we need to give him 8000 power.

And, you can.

At 3 points of damage Eight gains +1000 power, making his power 8000.

Eight also comes in with Haste, so he can start attacking from the get go.

One more thing. Whenever Eight deals damage to your opponent, Eight will grab a Class Zero Cadet from your Break Zone.

It’s time to start recycling.

25-071R – Scorpion Sentinel

Ever needed a defensive play?

Scorpion Sentinel is here to do just that.

When one of your opponent Forwards attacks, Scorpion Sentinel will come into play, dulling one of their Forwards. Sentinel Scorpion will also become a Forward until the end of the turn, and will be able to block your opponent’s next attack.

You get this for 1CP, which I would say is worth it.

Only thing that would have been better, is if you could have had multiple copies on the field.

25-072R – Kuja

For 2CP you can break one of your opponent’s Forwards.

Yes, you do need to place a Forward in the Break Zone in order to pay for this ability. But it’s worth it..

Imagine, Using Viking (2-132C) or Viking (4-133C) as part of the cost. You’re really only playing these cards so they can block an attack and be sent to the Break Zone just so you can draw a card.

Or, what if your opponent is casting a Summon or ability on one of your Forwards. That Forward is pretty much toast depending on what it’s being hit with, so, why not use Kuja’s ability and use that Forward as part of the cost, and break one of your opponent’s Forwards in the process.

Turn the tides, before they are turned on you!

Or something like that.

25-073L – Zack

Final Fantasy VII will be getting plenty of support. With plenty of Lightning support, even if you throw Zack in a Shinra themed deck, he will become a threat.

Every time Zach attacks, you can bring a Final Fantasy VII Character back from the Break Zone, only requirement is that, that Character costs 2CP or less. Shouldn’t be that hard to find one, even if you keep bringing the same Character in after they attack or block.

Rush Assault? When Zack Attacks, you can use his Signature ability and break one of your opponent’s Forwards! No cost Requirements, no nothing. Just stock up on all Zacks from every Opus.

Yes, please. May I have another?

25-074C – Amarant

For 5CP you get the ability of a Summon and a 9K body.

And, this might just be the best Amarant to date.

Amarant comes in and deals 5000 damage to all of your opponent’s active Forwards. You’ll probably break some of them, and the rest will be weakened enough that when your Forwards attack, they will either Break the Forward or your opponent will decide to let the attack go through just so they can save their Forwards for later.

We need more Final Fantasy IX cards, so we can finally make a decent FFIX deck.

25-075C – Jack

Jack of all trades?

I’m not so sure about that, but Jack can Break some Forwards. One when he comes in, as long as you have 5 Cadets on the field. If not, then Jack will only dull that Forward.

And, once per turn you can use Jack’s Special ability to break a Forward.

Jack’s Special ability is good because you don’t have to send Jack to the Break Zone for it to activate.

Meaning you can use it over and over, as long as you have enough Jacks in your deck.

25-076C – Elite Riot Trooper

Once again our elemental Backups make a return.

This time it is Lightning with Elite Riot Trooper.

At 3CP, Elite Riot Trooper comes on in and you can either draw a card, or deal a 2 cost Forward 7000 damage, which will most likely break that Forward.

As mentioned before, the ability you choose will depend on what part of the game you are at.

And, that’s about it.

25-077C – Cinque

The more Cadets that you have on the field, the better this card becomes.

Cinque enters the field and grabs a Class Zero Cadet and plays them straight to the field. Let’s say you grab Ace (3-153S). You just paid 4CP to get 2 Characters on the field, and Ace’s cost is 6CP. Now when Ace enters the field, You get to play another Class Zero Cadet Forward from your hand. And, if you happen to have Nine (13-123L) in your hand, you’re off to a great start.

And, if you ever need to get rid of Cinque, just so you can play her again, she had an ability that sends her to the Break Zone, and deals a Forward 9000 damage.

Might have to dust off that old Cadets deck.

25-078H – Seven

A 2 cost Backup that can do a couple of things each turn.

For one, she can give Haste to any Class Zero Cadet. All you have to do is dull 2 Active Cadets, It might be worth it, depending on the situation.

And secondly, this one is the better ability of the two, Sadistic Spikes. Every time you use Sadistic SPikes, you will be able to break one of your opponent’s Forwards, as long as their cost is less than the Class Zero Cadets that you control.

Over all, Sadistic Spikes is a good enough reason to use this Seven in your Cadets deck.

25-079C – SOLDIER Candidate

Do you recycle?

This SOLDIER Candidate does. He actually recycles himself to get you another SOLDIER Candidate.

Whenever SOLDIER Candidate gets sent to the Break Zone, you can search for another SOLDIER Candidate and play it onto the field. That way your front line has Backups. No, not those Backups. Backup Forwards.

I already said SOLDIER Candidates are a card away from being great.

And someone is going to find that card, and we’ll have Shinra’s version of Chocobos.

25-080H – Paine

Paine brings the Pain!

Yep, bad puns as usual.

Paine comes right in and deals a 3 cost Forward or less 7000 damage. Which would break most Forwards that cost 3CP or less.

Hold on let me check.

Yep, there are more Forwards than I thought that cost 3CP or less and have more than 7000 power.

Ok, where was I?

Ah yes, when that Forward is put into the Break Zone, Paine gives a Final Fantasy X Forward Haste.

Which can be herself as well, allowing her to attack and hopefully deal some damage, or break another one of your opponent’s Forwards.

It’s a decent Hero, but better Paine’s exist.

25-081R – Baralai

Baralai comes in and grabs a Forward from your Break Zone.

For 3CP that is not bad at all.

Baralai can also break a Forward as well. The cost might be high for this ability, but you can use it any time you’d like as Baralai will already be on the field for it.

I would probably play this card for Baralai’s first ability alone. The second one is just the cherry on top.

 

25-082C – Vivi

Here we are, Vivi comes in with a one-two punch.

For 2CP, Vivi will come into the field and dull one of your opponent’s Forwards.

After that Vivi will just produce 1CP per turn, until you’re ready to use his ability to break a damaged Forward.

It’s 2CP, this is worth it. You can probably find a way or two to activate Vivi as soon as he enters the field.

Get rid of that pesky Forward that’s been bothering you.

25-083H – Adrammelech, the Wroth

Once again you can remove a Lightning Backup from the game and reduce the cost for Adrammelech, the Wroth by 2 CP. Making Adrammelech a 3 cost Summon. Plus you get to remove that Backup that does not serve a purpose anymore.

And what does Adrammelech, the Wroth do?

Well, he .. it.. deals 7000 damage to all of your opponent’s Forwards, possibly braking most of them.

You’ll also receive 1 point of damage as part of the cost of using this Summon.

25-084R Rude

Rude comes in and you can grab a Member of the Turks from your Break Zone and add it to your hand. Bringing Rude’s cost down to 1CP. If that’s not reason enough to play Rude, we got more for you.

At the begining of the Attack Phase, both yours and your opponent’s, Rude will dull one of your opponent’s Forwards.

This means that, you’ll be able to successfully keep one of your opponent’s Forwards incapable of getting anything done.

You should see, what happens if Reno is on the field as well.

25-085L – Reno

Back to Back Turks.

With Reno, anytime a Forward becomes dull due to Summons or abilities, Reno will give a Member of the Turks Haste, and deal one of your opponent’s Forwards 4000 damage.
This is where things get interesting.

If you read Rude, Rude will dull a Forward at the beginning of every Attack Phase, meaning that Reno will give Haste to a Turk, and deal one of your opponent’s Forwards 4000 damage.

You also have EM Flail, which will dull a Forward and deal 5000 damage to another Forward, which in turn will activate Reno’s first ability will go into play once again.

You know your opponent will be trying everything in their power to get rid of Reno. Let’s go back some cards and take a look at Zack once again. “When Zack attacks, choose 1 Category VII Character of cost 2 or less in your Break Zone. Play it onto the field.”

Guess who costs 2CP.

Final Fantasy I P.001

Yes, it’s time I started to teach my little helpers all about the business. That means we need to start playing through the whole Final Fantasy series, and we’re starting off with the OG Final Fantasy.

I started looking for my old PSP, and the charging cables for it, and it was no where to be found. I told the kids that it would have to wait for another day. Then I started looking for some cards that I was going to start sorting, and lo and behold, there was the plug for the PSP. I tried looking for the Composite cords to hook it up to the tv, but couldn’t find those either, so we all sat together on the couch, huddled around the PSP.

-Spoilers

We started off by picking our classes, and naming the characters. We chose a Fighter, Red Mage, White Mage and a Black Mage. We named them and off we went. It took us a while to get through the King’s dialogue, because another reason we’re doing them, is to help them learn how to read. With one going into 1st grade, and the other into Kindergarten, what better way to learn then to play Final Fantasy. Sure it has words like coincidence, and prophecy but, it also has words like, the and is.

The next hour was spent walking around the town, and walking around town some more. And more. They decided to walk around in circles, as they thought that each entry to the town was going to be a different town. It was in and out of Cornelia.

Then it was off to the World Map, trying to get into the water, or crossing the bridge that wasn’t there yet.

The Monsters kept attacking us, and we kept battling them over and over.

After that it was time to buy our Weapons, Armor and Spells.

And, it was bedtime. Saved the game, and we’re getting ready to head to the Chaos Shrine.

Resurgence of Power : Fire Thoughts

18-001C – Achuka

Achuka almost sounds like the beginning to Kokomo.

First card in the set, Achuka might be a decent backup, but doesn’t look like something that I would use. Then again, I can’t always see how good cards are from the beginning. Sometimes I do, but not always.

Achuka here deals damage when he enters, and then you can dull him and deal some more damage. The damage increases if you have 3 points of Damage.

Achuka, Jamaica, yeah I wanna take ya to a Chocobo.

18-002C – False Stalwart

Simple, comes in with Brave. 2 cost with a 5K body, which can turn into a 7K body, with the help of another Manikin.

Not much to write about, but it’s cheap cost might make it worth it.

Wasn’t there a card that was good with Manikins? Exdeath? Opus 2? I believe it was.

 

 

18-003C – Machinist

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

Cheap Backup to play.

 

 

 

18-004R – Cleome

A Symphonian Musician? That’s a first. She does have Bard skills and with those Melody Counters she does Buff your Forwards and deals damage to your opponents Forwards.

She is also a Forward herself.

Not a bad card for 2CP.

 

18-005C – Salamander

Simple Fire Summon that delivers 5000 damage to all of your opponents Forwards.

Remove 10 Fire cards from the Break Zone to make it 7000 points of damage.

Now if this card would have been an EX Burst, it would have been amazing.

 

 

18-006C – Zell

Coming in with Haste, Zell can attack right away and if you buff him up to over 10k Power, every time he attacks he deals 8000 damage to one of your opponents Forwards.

Don’t have anyway to buff up Zell?

He comes with an ability that if you discard 2 cards, Zell’s power goes up by 3k.

Self-sufficient.

 

18-007C – Selphie EX

Selphie actually costs 2CP as you’ll be getting back a Fire Forward when she is played onto the field. So, if that Fire Forward was just a card you chucked to help get her on the field then, you have just played like I would if you didn’t know what else to do.

Other than that she is a Backup, with the ability to give a Fire Forward you control +3K Power.

You can also get that Fire Forward of off an EX Burst.

 

18-008H – Two-Headed Dragon

Two heads are better then one.

Every time a Fire Forward attacks choose a Forward your opponent controls and deal it 400 Damage. Straight to the point. Especially of you are playing Mono-Fire. Everyone attacks and you slowly start to chip away at your Opponents front lines.

Attack to bring them down. I’m sure you’ll be able to turn things around if the Two-Headed Dragon is on the field.

18-009H – Tidus

Other than the Kingdom Hearts attire, I don’t see why this card is a Hero. For the cost of Tidus I’m pretty sure you can find a better card to play to deal 8000 damage to one Forward.

Not a big fan of this one.

 

 

18-010C – Berserker

Staying true to the Berserker Job. Berserker must attack. As that is the only thing Berserker can do. He goes Berserk.
He also comes with First Strike. Allowing him to deal damage to your opponents Forwards before they get a chance to.
Also when he comes in you can pay a Fire CP and choose a Forward that must block.

Who’s ready for a Berserker deck? I wonder if there’s enough Bereserkers to get this going?

18-011R – Paine EX

Do to the cost I would say that this card is to be solely used for it’s EX Burst. AM I right or Am I wrong?

I mean 6CP for a 9K body is a lot, but this is just a Rare card.

Unless you’re just counting on removing Forwards from the game instead of sending them to the Break Zone, But that’s what Yuna is for.

 

18-012L – Faris

This card is interesting to say the least. Your opponent will be thinking twice before they attack. As when Faris or a Warrior of Light is dealt damage, you get to choose a Forward your opponent controls and deal it 3000 damage.

Imagine what would happen if they use a Summon or ability that deals damage to all your Forwards. You might be getting rid of a couple of their Forwards to say the least.

I wonder what other Warrior of Light cards will be in this set.

 

18-013R – Fang

Fang looks like she is always just a Rare. I’m waiting for the day where they’ll give her her own Legend card. But today is not that day.

Fang will buff all your XIII Forwards by 2. Including herself. She is basically a 2CP/7K because you will probably be playing a XIII focused deck. Why, you ask? It’s simple really, every turn Fang -can reduce the cost of casting a XIII Forward by 2.

But, why is she a thief? My, guess is because of Lightning Returns. But, it still doesn’t make sense. She should be a Commando or a Dragoon. But, what do I know?

18-014R – Meeth

We already knew that we’ll have Multi-element cards this set, and Meeth here is a card that can make use of it.

He’s a 2 cost Backup that will allow you to search for any card other than a Backup if you discard a Multi element card.
I can see use of this one.

 

18-015R – Ramza

See, this is how good cards come along. Especially with the Warp mechanic. Ramza can be easily cast for 2CP, if you want to wait a couple of turns until he enters the field.

And, when he does, you get to bring in another Knight from the Break Zone and play it onto the field. Just like that you can play 2 Knights with the combined cost of up to 12CP for a measly 2CP. Even if they counter Ramza coming in it’s only 2CP that you lost. You can try again.

And we haven’t even gotten to his ability. Dull 4 active Knights and Break one of your opponents Forwards, and deal them 1 point of Damage. What else could you ask for? This should have been the Hero, and Tidus should’ve just been a Rare.

18-016C – Lulu

2 cost Backup. Most will skip this card. Including me. There are better Lulu’s out there although they aren’t Fire.

But, if you like this card you can dull and discard a card to deal 3000 Damage to a Forward. 5000 if it’s a Multi-Element.

 

 

18-017R -Rain

“Here comes the Rain again.”

He’s ready to come in on turn 2 for 3 CP.

And when he you have 3 points of Damage, Rain gets a 1k Buff, and he deals a Forward 5k damage.

Not bad for a card that you can play for 3CP. Even 5CP is worth it for this card.
