Cid Pollendina (2-057C)
“(D): Your opponent shows his/her hand.”
Need to take a look at what your opponent has in store?
Cid here will let you take a look, Best part is you can use it once per turn.
You’ll never be in the dark again.
Cid Pollendina (5-056H)
“When Cid Pollendina enters the field, your opponent reveals his/her hand.
If Cid Pollendina deals damage to a Forward of cost 5 or more, increase the damage by 4000 instead.
If Cid Pollendina is dealt damage by a Forward of cost 5 or more, reduce the damage by 4000 instead.”
Almost like the Opus II Cid, but this Cid let’s you take a look at your opponent’s hand when he enters the field.
Other than that, Cid is great against high cost Forwards. His attacks do more damage and the damage he takes is less.
Add that to the 8000 power he already has. I’d say it’s not a bad card.
Not great either.
Cid Pollendina (13-039C)
“EX BURST When Cid Pollendina enters the field, you may search for 1 Job Engineer Forward and add it to your hand.”
Let’s take a look at what we wrote when Opus XIII came out.
“I didn’t realize how many Cid’s there are. Or Engineers. At first glance, I thought this card would be so-so. There are 17 Engineers including Cid Haze. And, 11 Cids. 12 if you count Cindy.
You can probably put together an Engineer deck. And have Cid Haze attack to Activate all of your cards. It might work. Or a Cid Deck. Who wants to build a Cid deck.”
Well, yes. We’ll keep it like that.
We’ll finally try our hand at an Engineer deck.
Maybe.
Cid Pollendina (17-049C)
“When Cid Pollendina enters the field, you may search for 1 Category IV Forward and add it to your hand.”
This is probably the most Common Cid you’ll see on the field. (See what I did there?)
Mr. Pollendina comes in and searches for a FFIV Forward. And, we all like searching for cards, cause you get to grab what you need.
Grab that Wind Legend Cecil, and call it a day.
3CP – Lightning
“I have a name. It’s Lumina. And, I know a lot about you.”
So, just who is Lumina?
On to the card
That first ability is all you need, as Sophie is Earth/Water she counts as Water. (Correct me if I am wrong.) With her not being able to be broken by abilities or Summons that don’t deal damage, she will most likely not be able to be broken if you have enough Earth and Water Forwards on the field. It is simple as that.
keep saying it, too. Great card, if you play Earth you can splash any other color you’d like as you’ll have a way to pay for it.
At 2CP, this card is a no brainer. And with those abilities, she’s deadly. starting at 4K, but each Earth or Water forward gives her +2K. You can just throw her in a deck with Vikings and call it a day. Now if you control 3 other Forwards that are either Earth or Water, she’ll have 10K. And, at 10K she deals your opponent 1 point of Damage at the end of the turn. Your turn, and your opponents. The game will pretty much take care of itself if you just pass and defend Sophie.
