20-106R – Alphinaud
We already spoke about Alphinaud a little in Lightning.
As long as you play Alphinaud, when your opponent has a dull Forward on the field, you’ll be ok.
If not then you will have just wasted 3CP. Which isn’t the worst thing in the world, just an inconvenience.
And at 3 points of damage, Alphinaud gains 3000 power.
By itself, this isn’t the greatest card. But, with Alisaie, this is a great card.
20-107H – Urianger
There’s always removal, and that means you’ll have a place in your Scions deck for Urianger.
When he enters the field, you can search for a XIV Forward and add it to your hand. But, only if one of your cards have been removed from the game.
Other than that Urianger is a 2 Cost with a 5K body.
20-108C – O’aka EX
If you don’t have three Backups on the field, you are not playing O’aka.
But, if you do you can play him and draw 2 cards.
And, then discard a card.
Might be good if you’re looking for a card, and ran out of searchers.
I don’t know. Could see some use here or there. Might just end up in a deck as fodder for other cards. But, then why would you put it in a deck if you’ll never use it.
20-109H – Cecil
The other Cecil is better in my opinion.
This Cecil is basically a Crystal Generator.
Once per turn, if Cecil or a FFIV Character enters the field you gain 1 Crystal.
And, you can use that Crystal to give one of your FFIV Forward +1000 power and protection from your Forwards abilities.
Are the Golbez and Cecil decks going to shoot up in value soon?
20-110H – Hippokampos
Monster/Forward that attacks all the Forwards in sight. In other words AoE.
Once Hippokampos is in you can dull 3 Characters and deal 1000 damage to all of your opponents Forwards for every 2 Characters you control.
Sounds like Algebra to me.
At least you’ll be dealing some damage to those pesky Forwards.
20-111C – Blugu
For 1CP this is a pretty great card.
On entry Blugu either Fulls or Activates a Forward.
And after that you can choose to cancel an Auto Ability. All you got to do is 1(Wa) CP and dull Blugu and send it to the Break Zone. Voila! Canceled auto ability.
Best part is you can have 3 of them on the field, waiting for the chance to cancel an auto ability.
Wasn’t there someone that can grab monsters from the Break Zone? Infinite supplu of Blugus.
20-112C – Frimelda
Frimelda the recycler, don’t like your hand, just attack with Frimelda.
For every time she attacks, you get to draw a card and then discard a card.
And if that discarded card is a Forward, Frimelda gains 3000 power, and a Forward of your choosing loses 3000 power.
It’s a win-win.
But, you can only attack so many time before you run out of cards.
Nothing to worry about, we got another 49 cards in the deck.
20-113R – Porom
Lots of recycling here, Water should be called the Recycling Center today. Cards for cards.
We’ll give you a card and then you’ll give us a card back.
More like a trade center?
Anyway Palom’s twin sister Porom comes in or leaves the field, and you get to draw and discard 1 card.
If you discard a FFIV Character you can also get a Crystal. Two for the price of one.
20-114L – The Fiend
After seeing all 3 of the Warring Triad, it’s hard to decide which ones better than the other. Cause they are all better than each other.
The Fiend, has so much potential, he can become an unstoppable force by the time you have taken 5 points of damage.
From the beginning your opponent will cancel the first Summon they cast. At 3 points of damage all abilities choosing The Fiend for the first time will be canceled, and at 5 points of damage, the Fiend gains Brave, + 1000 power and any damage deal to The Fiend will become 0 if that damage is less than The Fiend’s power.
“Finally, The Fiend has come to FFTCG.”
20-115R – Mist
I can’t really think of another reason to play Mist, other than so you can look at the top card of your deck at the end of the turn.
If it’s the end of your turn, you’re hoping to see an EX Burst. If it’s the end of your opponents turn, you’re hoping to see the card that you want to draw.
Kind of like a Fortune teller that allows you to slightly change your future.
And since the Warp cost is 0, you’ll actually come out ahead as you don’t send any cards to the Break Zone.
20-116R – Meliadoul
I don’t know why I got excited when I saw Meliadoul, but I did. We need more Characters that everyone forgot about.
Meliadoul enters the field and casts Dispel on a Forward, even though they don’t call it Dispel, it is Dispel.
And, at 3 points of Damage Meliadoul gains 1000 power.
Support Character Supporting.
20-117L – Yuna
This is a Great card. I like it.
This card goes to prove that you only need this Yuna and Emissaries of Light Tidus. And you can probably just fill out the rest of your deck with Summons and Yunas.
In theory it can work. For if Yuna is chosen by your opponents abilities, all you need to do is discard 1 Summon, and you’ll cancel it’s effect.
Whenever you cast a Summon you’ll draw 1 card.
And then we have Holy. A Special ability in which you don’t have to dull Yuna in order to cast it. Read that again. You don’t dull Yuna when you cast Holy!
Think about it. That’s why all you need is Yuna and Tidus. Yuna will just sit back and blast all of your opponents Forwards with Holy. As soon as they enter the field. New Forward coming in, nope react with Holy. If you got at least 3 Summons in your Break Zone, you’ll be fine.
You probably don’t even need Tidus.
Just Yuna. Multiple copies of multiple Yunas. And Spam Holy like there’s no tomorrow!
20-118H – Unicorn
If you’re playing a VI themed deck, you’re probably going to play Unicorn. Not me. Not that I don’t like this card, but I’ll probably be playing Ice/Fire. Unless I find a way to pay for Water CP I’ll leave this Unicorn be a mythological being.
Unicorn comes in, And since you’re playing VI, you’ll have a FFVI Forward on the field that will allow you to use both abilities.
The first being to activate a Forward, and draw a card. The second return a 4 cost or less Forward to your opponents hand.
That sounds like 3 abilities to me.
20-119C/15-123C – Oracle
Didn’t we say recycling center earlier? Maybe we meant the Printers, reprinting cards and such.
Not that I have anything against reprints, I just would rather have a new card that does something similar instead of having reprints.
Anyways, Oracle gives you a Crystal when she comes in, and reduces the next damage dealt to a Forward by 1000.
That’s about it.
20-120C – Fisher
Talk about catching a bite.
You’ll probably draw up to 3 cards with Fisher, if you get it right.
If not you’ll at least draw one card, unless someone decides to RFG your Break Zone, when you put Fisher in there.
Best thing about fishing, is probably the beer.
20-121C – Lunafreya
A quick one-two punch, all for 1CP.
You pay the CP. and Warp Lunafreya. When she comes in after a turn and a half, you can disrupt your opponents plans when you send one of their Forwards to their hand and they send one of their Forwards to the Break Zone.
They won’t know what hit them. Especially if you lose count of the Warp Counters. It’ll be Magnificent.
20-122R – Leslie
Let’s see.
Leslie enters the field, you discard a card, and then return one of your opponents Forwards to their hand. If you discarded a FFVII card you also draw a card.
Quickish, easy enough and at almost no cost to you.
Might be good if Lunafreya just warped in as well.
That’ll be 3 Forwards, Sir.
Have a good day.
20-123C – Loporrit
This card is way better than the other cards that let you draw 2 cards and discard a card.
Why?
The answer is quite simple.
You don’t discard a card. You just put it at the bottom of your deck.
And that way you won’t be worried about running out of cards. Not that that happens a lot, but it’s always better to have an extra card or 2 towards the end of a long grueling match.
Yes, I’ll play around with Loporrit. Help me find Yuna faster.
20-124C – Alchemist
Well it’s technically not recycling. It’s just adding more Backups for free.
Why would you want to have 3 Alchemists on the field, when they don’t actually do anything.
Unless that’s your plan.
It might work.
20-125R – Rosa
Here is the missing piece for the ultimate FFIV deck.
You can actually splash any element that you’s like, without worrying about how you’re going to pay for the cost. No more relying on Tyro, and how are you going to get Tyro on the field if you’re not playing Earth.
For 1CP you get to play Rosa and draw a card when Cecil enters the field.
All you got to do is find a way to recycle Cecil.
We did say that Water is the Recycling center, right?
20-126C – Wakka
Well, at least we figured out what to do with all those free Backups that we were getting.
You now have a way to use them as fodder for Wakka when he goes into attack mode.
Every time Wakka attacks, he grabs a Backup and throws it like a Blitzball at one of your opponents Forwards for 8000 damage.
Sure 7CP might be a bit much to play Wakka, but it is reduced by 1 for each Backup that you have on the field.
You should be only paying 2CP to get Wakka on the field. Maybe a little bit more.
“Wakka, wakka, wakka”
