Got the Time?

Last week was a busy week for us, and it is still going strong. I was hoping of cracking a box of MetaZoo Nightfall, but didn’t get a chance to. It keeps looking at me when I’m sitting at my desk. “Don’t you want to open me, Big Boy?” “Don’t you want to tear into the shrink wrap, and slowly remove it from on top of me?” And I look at the box, and say … “Maybe, tomorrow night.”

Everything was put on the back burner last week. But, we’ll be back on schedule in no time. Cause we don’t have much going on till Fusion Strike comes out. Only 3 weeks away, and I’m hoping for a new Mimikyu card.

Speaking of Pokemon, I haven’t had a chance to play for a long time. I heard that they changed the Online game. Haven’t checked it out yet. I doubt they changed anything, but I’ll only find out if I re-download it and see for myself. Unless one of you guys would like to tell me.

War of the Visions, no spoiler alert this week, because I haven’t played at all this week. I might give it a rest, because I don’t think I want to have to level up Mont just to beat a scene. War of the Visions.

You might have defeated me.

Maybe I should try Brave Exvius once again. It’s been out for a while. I wonder how far I can get into the story before The First Soldier comes out. Not to mention my backlog of PS4 games. Maybe, I just need a Twitch account. Then I can play games because it’s part of my business plan. Mostly Final Fantasy, but any kind of game will work well. I just need to figure out the setup, Mics, cameras cables and whatnot. I bet it’s pretty easy to figure it out. Just ask Google.

Hey, if we get a Twitch account setup, we can probably start live box breaks. Just a thought.

Crystal Dominion Prerelease Kit Preview.

We finally got a look at the Pre-release Kit, and the Theatrhythm Promo card, featuring none other than Butz .. I mean Bartz. Sleeves featuring Firion and 9 packs of Crystal Dominion goodness. And it shall be here next month. 6 weeks away if nothing goes wrong. Let’s see if Joe actually does something. Along with UPS, Fedex and Walmart. But, that’s  another story.

Now, we do have a card here, Let’s take a look.

Bartz EX
4CP/Wind
Forward
Category – Theatrhythm-V
Job – Wanderer/ Warrior of Light
Hero
8000 Power

“EX BURST When a Job Warrior of Light other than Bartz enters your field, gain (C).

If you have a (C), Bartz gains +2000 power.

When a Job Warrior of Light you control is put from the field into the Break Zone, you may pay (C)(C)(C). When you do so, play it onto the field. This effect will trigger only once per turn.”

Do you know what that means. You need a card Job : Warrior of Light that will also serve as your main card. Wait, What? Let me rephrase this.

Faris (12-128L) that is the card you will be playing. Or atleast I would. Think about it. Faris attacks for 8k not counting buffs. Even if she doesn’t break the blocking Forward. She will be sent to the Break Zone. You’ll bring her back for 3(C). And when she re-enters the field, you will gain (C). Which, even if you used your last Crystals, Bartz will still have his +2K power and Faris will deal 2k damage to a Forward for each Job Warrior of Light you control.

And come to realize it. Faris and Bartz are both Category : V as well.

Let’s see Warrior of Light Theme Deck become a thing. Now if we can only get Jack aboard. Maybe by Resurgence of Power.

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.

Final Fantasy TCG : Anniversary Collection 2022

It’s been 5 years since Final Fantasy TCG first released. Talk about how time flies. And to commemorate the 5 years we get this Anniversary Collection Set.

With Squall on the Box, you can use it to store your cards, your decks and what not. It comes with a pre-made 50 card deck and 200 cards ranging from Opus I to Opus XII. Plus a Promo card. Not bad for $60.

The way they word it on the store is mind boggling.

 


We’ll just go straight into the Legends.

Shantotto (1-107L)
Golbez (1-135L)
Diabolos (5-062L)
Y’shtola (5-068L)
Rinoa (6-041L)
Zidane (6-044L)
Cloud (8-006L)
Zidane (8-115L)
Gabranth (9-063L)
Fusoya (9-094L)
Ashe (10-106L)
Ritz (11-063L)

All these cards from what I understand will be Non-Foil Full Arts.

We’ll also get 4 Promo cards three of each Yuna & Tidus, Squall, Yuna and Lightning. Yuna & Tidus will be 3 Full Art Foils, while the other three will only have 1 Full Art Foil, but you’re still getting 3.

The Pre-constructed Deck will be Fire/Water. And, judging by the Promo card. It will be a fun deck to play with, i don’t know about against but, it seams like more and more cards have the ability to attack more than once per turn.

2CP for 8K. I’ll take that any day. Plus, that great ability. Of course you’ll need both Squall and Lightning to make use of it.

All in all, this should be a great product. As we don’t know what the rest of the “staples” are, it’ll be a nice surprise to find out once this comes.

Final Fantasy TCG Schedule for 2022

The Tokyo Game Show has come and gone, and Square-Enix was there, as they usually are. Plenty of games were showcased, Including Strangers of Paradise : Final Fantasy Origin, Final Fantasy VII : The First Soldier, and Chocobo GP.

But, you’re not here for that. You’re here because Square-Enix also showcased Final Fantasy TCG. Now, I didn’t understand much of it, but they showed the schedule of releases for 2022.

We already know about the Custom Starter Set -Final Fantasy X, and Emissaries of Light. We’ve talked about both of them already. We have the Anniversary Collection Set 2022 which was revealed last week, as it went up for Pre-Order on the Square-Enix website. (We shall have it too. Just head to Upcoming Releases.) We’ll have a full article on that one up in the next couple of days.

June – Two Player Starter Set Golbez Vs Cecil
July – Rebellion’s Call
October – Two Player Starter Set Noctis Vs Ardyn
November – Resurgence of Power

Now, the part that you’ve been waiting for. Time for my opinion.

We can see that each Opus of 2022 will have a Starter Set with them. Golbez Vs for Rebellion’s Call. There is so much they can do with these decks. Like have Cecil and family, Rosa, Ceodore, and Cid. Can’t forget Cid. With Baron Soldiers and the Red Wings. Who would have thought that Cecil was from Detroit? Not, those Red Wings you say? And then you can also have the Hooded Man. You should already know that one of the summons will be Odin.

Golbez Deck, will actually be an Archfiends Deck. But will also hold the Imposter King and Kain. When Kane enters the field, if your opponent has the Hooded Man on the field Break the Hooded Man. If the Hooded man enters the field, Break Kane. That would be an interesting card if they did something like that.

Rebellion’s Call. With the Rebel Yell, we want More, More, More. More cards, More Full Arts, More Opuses or Sets. Who’s here for the Rebellion? AVALANCHE? The Rebel Army? The Returners? Will we finally see Locke on the Box Art? Or perhaps even Setzer? Yeah, Setzer is a long shot, but it can happen. They won’t put Firion back on, maybe Leon or Queen Hilda, even though she wasn’t a playable character she was in charge of the rebellion. Then there is always the chance that we’ll just get another FFVII Box Art. Barret? He’s the only AVALANCHE character that hasn’t appeared on the box itself.

Noctis Vs Ardyn. Well, I’m not too sure about this one as I haven’t gotten to finishing XV yet, but Noctis and friends will likely go up against Ardyn and all the knights you fight against. That’s how much I know.

Resurgence of Power, sounds more like a Pantera album. Dimebag Darrel Full Arts. Who shall be on the Box? Who’s coming back into power? Garland? He does come back twice as powerful after he is defeated by the Warriors of Light. Cecil? Nah, he just turns good in a way. Gilgamesh? He does get stronger every time you beat him. Sin? The calm can’t stop him. Ashe? She was just on a box recently.
