26-021C – Anabella

The Duchess of Priming.

Yeah, I don’t know much of Final Fantasy XVI, but I do know something about Prime.
No, not the drink. I have no clue about that.

Anabella will dull and Freeze a Character, whenever one of your Characters decides to Prime into an Eikon.

You can do much worse for 2CP.

Prime as much as you’d like, and have Anabella dell and Freeze everyone. One Character at a time.

26-022C – Undead Princess

Looking at this card makes me want to play World of Final Fantasy. Just by having an Undead Princess on the equivalent of Medieval Magitek Armor.

Let’s get to the card.

Undead Princess comes in for 3CP, and when she comes in you gain a Crystal and your opponent discards a card.

Simple, and straight to the point.

And when it’s all done, you have a body with 7000 power to attack or block, cause you’ll want to get rid of this card so you can play it again.

26-023C – Wol

Wol on Ice. That’s a first.

Coming in at 5CP, Wol’s cost can come down by 2CP if your opponent discarded a card this turn due to your playing.

3CP is better than 5CP and 9000 power is a great body on the field.

Wol isn’t done. Not this time.

Whenever he attacks, you can discard 2 cards and break a Forward. It’s like having a Summon ready to go. Those 2 cards is the equivalent to 4CP. Odin from Opus I costs 7CP. And, you can use Wol’s ability once per turn.

Nothing else needs to be said.

26-024C – Musician

This Musician packs some Fire … er … Ice Power.

For 2CP you can deal damage to a dull Forward, once per turn. All you need is some ammo, and that ammo comes in the form of cards.

Once per turn you will be able to dull Musician and pay the cost of discarding one card. Then you can choose a dull Forward and deal it 5000 damage.

If you’re playing Ice/Lightning and you discard a Lightning card, that damage become 7000.

It’s a decent Backup, that when Musician is not in use, he will give you 1CP per turn.

26-025C – Kadaj EX

Even as a Common, Kadaj will be hard to get rid of.

For 3CP you get a body with 9000 power. And, at the end of each of your turns you will remove Kadaj from the game. He won’t be gone for long though as at the end of your opponent’s turn Kadaj will come back to the field.

Kadaj won’t shine until you have at least 3 points of damage, cause when you do have those 3 points of damage, Kadaj will dull one of your opponent’s Forwards. And, since Kadaj returns at the end of your opponent’s turn, that Forward will be dull during your turn.

And this cycle will keep on going on and on.

This Kadaj is a lite version of Opus XI Kadaj.

26-026R – Kuja

You know you always wanted to swap out your Backups. Kuja is here to help you with that.

When Kuja enters the field you can remove one of your Ice Backups from the game. There he helped you and now you can play the new Backup that you wanted cause you didn’t have space for it.

Oh wait, we’re not even done with the first part. When you do remove that Backup, your opponent will discard 2 cards from their hand.

At 5CP, this isn’t a bad play as you’ll be taking away your opponent’s Fire Power, and Kuja has 9000 power. Your opponent will think twice before they try and break Kuja, cause when they choose Kuja with one of their abilities or Summons, they will need to discard a card from their hand.

I’m on the fence about this one. Cause after his first ability goes off, there is no need for your opponent to try and get rid of him, as he’s just another body on the field. Well there is a need, but it won’t be the first course of action.

26-027R – Kujata

Cash or Credit?

How do you want to pay for Kujata?

There’s 2 ways to pay and the result will be the same.

Kujata will break a dull Forward, and that’s about it.

You can either pay 3CP for this, or just dull 2 active Forwards. This means that you can throw Kujata in any deck and you’ll be able to pay for it, without having any Ice CP to spend.

26-028C – Cripshay

The Ice Monster of Gunslinger in the Abyss. Almost sounds like a title.

Cripshay becomes a Forward with 7000 power. And, First Strike.

If, and when Cripshay deals damage to your opponent, you will send Cripshay into the Break Zone, and your opponent will discard 2 cards.

They just might think twice before taking that damage, just so they don’t discard the 2 cards they have in their hand.

But, are those 2 cards worth more than the Forward that will be broken by Cripshay’s 7000 power?

That’s a decision they’ll have to make in the heat of the battle.

26-029R – Shiva (XVI)

Shiva is a great card to play all by herself. You don’t even need Jill to Prime into her. But, you probably should. It’s cheaper in the long run and you get a better ability.

When Shiva comes in you will Freeze all of your opponent’s Forwards. If you Primed into Shiva you will Freeze all of your opponent’s Characters instead.

Ice Age? Yes, let’s have your opponent discard 2 cards from their hand. This works even better if they only have 2 cards in their hand.

Let’s see what Jill does.

26-030C .- Cid (WoFF)

A What now?

Yes that what is with a capitol W.

Every time your opponent uses an EX Burst they’ll discard a card?

Cid just sticks around and waits for your opponent to use an EX Burst, other then that, he’ll just sit back and give you 1CP per turn. That’s not bad at all.

I like the art on these WoFF cards. If you noticed it, we’ve been getting them since Resurgence of Power.

26-031H – Cid Raines

Great card, Great art. What more can you ask for?

If you’re playing a discard deck, Cid Raines is your man.

He will come in for Free, if your opponent discarded a card on the same turn that you want to play Cid.

You’ll want to keep Cid around to thwart your opponent’s plans. When your opponent plays a Forward onto the field from anywhere except their hand, Cid will take that Forward and send it to the Break Zone.

Yes, you do have to sacrifice Cid Raines for this move, but it is a move well worth it.

26-032L – Charlotte

Charlotte is ready to wreck your opponent’s plans. As long as Charlotte is on the field. Your opponent will be 2 steps behind. The only draw back we have here, is that Charlotte costs 5CP, and you can only use Ice CP to pay for her. And that’s not even that big of a deal. You would gladly pay a couple more CP to get Charlotte on the field.

For one she has a little bit of protection going for her. When ever she is chosen by your opponent’s Summons or abilities, your opponent must discard a card, or else that Summon or that ability will be canceled. It’s going to be hard to get rid of Charlotte.

Now, let’s take a look at that final sentence. “When a Character enters your opponent’s field, dull it and Freeze it.”

Your opponent will not be able to use that Character for another turn. That’s 2 turns from when it enters the field. No Blocks, no abilities no nothing. Just a sitting duck. Or a deer caught in the headlights.

You’ll be having some fun with Charlotte here.

26-033C – Summoner

Here we go a decent Backup that will allow you to grab and Ice Summon from the Break Zone and add it to your hand.

This will bring Summoner’s cost down to 1CP, which is even better.

Summoner also has an ability where you can put him in the Break Zone, and your next Summon’s cost will be reduced by 2CP. Mathematically, you’re gaining 1CP by playing Summoner and using his ability.

That’s about it.

26-034L – Jill

Jill has been upgraded to a Legend this time.

When Jill enters the field, and depending on how many Eikons you have removed from the game or in your Break Zone, you will select that many Characters that your opponent controls and you will dull them.

After that Jill will Prime into Shiva and you will Freeze all of your opponent’s Characters.
And, that’s not all.

No, At the begining of your Attack Phase, and at the begining of your opponent’s Attack Phase, Jill will break a dull Forward.

You’ll slowly be able to take down your opponent’s front line, cause you know that they’ll have a dull Forward hanging out. And, if they don’t, you can always bring in Amon 2-098L to dull a Forward once per turn.

26-035R – Snow

Snow is ready for a fight.

And when he enters, the field you can either draw a card, or have your opponent discard a card.

If Snow is brought in by an ability from a Final Fantasy XIII Character you can do both.
Luckily Lightning is ready to cause havok, as she can tag in any Final Fantasy XIII Forward and form a party to attack. In other words perform a tag team maneuver.

You won’t even need Ice CP, just Snow and Lightning. It’s called Thunder Snow.

26-036C/15-038C – Knight

Here’s a reprint, of a reprint, of a reprint.

So, we’re just going to, you guessed it, Copy/Paste from Opus XV Crystal Dominion.

“Knight comes in, hands you a Crystal

Next turn, Knight Dulls himself and puts himself into the Break Zone dulling a 3 cost Forward.

Thus concludes the story of Knight”

26-037H – Halone

Halone will be a card that you’ll play later on in the game, as you’ll need at least Six of “The Twelve” on the field in order for her ability to go off.

Whenever Halone attacks, you get to choose 2 of your opponent’s Characters, and you shall grant them a Dull/Freeze.

Your opponent will also discard a card.

Halone also doubles as a Meat Shield with a 9k body.

 

26-038H – Physalis

This is a Buy one Get one Free deal!

You can either pay 5CP to play Physalis, or you can Warp her for 2CP. She’ll stay out until the end of your turn. As she on;y has one Warp Counter.

If you paid the 5CP, Physalis is just a Meat Shield.

If you Warp her in, you will be able to play another Forward with Warp from your hand onto the field.

This way you’ll get 2 Meat Shields.

This is a great card, you’ll be able to get a couple bodies on the field quickly and cheaply.

26-039H – Star Sibyl

A four cost Backup that will grant you some protection against your opponent’s abilities.

Not great protection, but just enough to have your opponent second guess the action that they are about to take.

Cause if they choose to target one of your Forwards with an ability, they will need to discard a card. Is that card that they discard worth the extra cost to use the ability? Maybe yes, maybe no.

But, if they don’t have any cards in their hand, they won’t need to discard anything.

26-040R – Menphina

Menphina might be your starting point for “The Twelve”.

When she enters the field you can pay X and search for one of the other Twelve and play it onto the field. No add it to your hand, just straight to the field.

Only drawback is that you need to use CP produced from The Twelve, or discarding The Twelve cards. Which shouldn’t be that hard, considering your deck could have up to 36 The Twelve cards in it. And, if you could use any cards, it would have been to easy.

Menphina can also Freeze one of your opponent’s Forwards with her ability.

Hmm, didn’t we just see a card that can Dull Forwards, or did we just mention Amon (2-098L)?

Cool Singles!

25-086R – Abzu

You would think that, if your Job was Corneo’s Pet, you should have some synergy with Don Corneo.

But, that’s not happening. Not with Abzu.

That doesn’t mean that Abzu is a bad card, no Abzu is actually pretty decent.

Abzu doesn’t let your opponent’s Forwards gain any buff to their power.

Abzu is also a Forward and whenever Abzu attacks, one of your opponent’s Forwards lose 5000 power until the end of the turn.

You might break that Forward or you might not. But, Abzu will have a good chance at surviving.

25-087C – Abzu Shoat

I’m seeing doubles, and they can turn into triples.

You can have 3 Abzu Shoats on the field at once, at 1CP each you can have a little bit of fun.

First off you can dull Abzu Shoat and discard a Water card to have one of your opponent’s Forwards lose 1000 power until the end of the turn.

Or you can send Abzu Shoat into the Break Zone, and have one of your opponent’s Forwards lose all of their abilities.

If you have all 3 one the field, and they all use that second ability, you might just be able to crack through your opponent’s defenses.

Let’s see this one in action.

25-088H – Famfrit, the Darkening Cloud

Here’s another way to get rid of a Backup that has lost it’s use after it entered the field.
By removing one of your Water Backups from the game, you will reduce the cost to cast Famfrit by 2CP.

After that, Famfrit will break a Forward that has an Auto ability that was triggered.
Not only that, but you will also draw a card.

And, this my friends makes Famfrit, the Darkening Cloud a Free Play!

I’ll take 3!

25-089R – Cagnazzo

I remember fighting this overgrown turtle.

Coming in at 2CP, Cagnazzo acts more like a Summon than a Forward. When Cagnazzo enters the field, you will choose one of your opponent’s Forwards, and send it back to their hand.

Now, if Golbez is already on the field, you can take that Forward and chuck it into the Break Zone.

And, that’s it.

You’ll have a 5K body on the field, which you will want to find a way to Break Cagnazzo, just so you can replay him.

Imagine having Cagnazzo back when Neo-Exdeath was big.

25-090C – Quacho Queen

2 cost Backup that is also a Common.

Quaho Queen will give a WoFF Forward +1000 power until the end of the turn.

And, that is it.

There’s not much to write about her, so I’m just writing whatever comes to mind, just so it can take up some space.

We don’t want to leave an empty square next to Quacho Queen.

25-091H – Kraken (III)

Now this is a card that you have been waiting for! And, you didn’t even know it.

Kraken reduces the cost of all of your Summons and Monsters by 1CP!

That means you can get more Monsters out, quicker and more efficiently.

Not only that, but Kraken will also remove one of your opponent’s Backups from the game for as long as Kraken is on the field.

This one is going straight into my Bomb deck.

I’ll take 3 of these, and let’s not get into the Amano Art.

25-092C – Cloud of Darkness

A what now?

How is Cloud of Darkness a Common.

Cloud of Darkness comes in for 5CP and sends all of your opponent’s Forwards into the Break Zone!

Except for 2. Your opponent will choose 2 Forwards that they can keep.

All you need after that is find a way to get rid of the other 2 Forwards, you can use Sophie from this set for one, and the other one, well that’s up to you.

Cloud of Darkness also has 8000 power, so she will be able to block a couple of attacks, or deal some damage. Whichever you prefer will work.

25-093C – Corsair

Corsair shall come in and return a 2 cost Forward to their owner’s hand. Your opponent’s Forward that is.

Coming in with 3000 power, Corsair will be able to block an attack, and he will be sent to the Break Zone.

And, that is where you want Corsair to be. In the Break Zone.

Why?

Because you’ll want to find a way to play Corsair from the Break Zone, for when Corsair enters the field, Corsair will once again return one of your opponent’s Forwards to their hand, but they will also draw a card for you.

And, if you can find a way to keep bring Corsair back, you’ll have enough cards in your hand to put your plan into overdrive.

25-094C – White Mage

Here’s your Water Elemental Backup.

White Mage is ready to come in and do what White Mage needs to do.

White Mage will either raise a 1 cost Forward from the Break Zone, and bring it back to your hand.

Or, White Mage will draw you a card.

I can’t think of many 1CP Forwards that would be worth grabbing.

And, I was wrong. There are plenty of 1 cost Forwards worth choosing.

I might even use this one in my Octopus/Pirate deck that is still in the works.

25-095C – Cecil

For 5CP you get a Meat Shield with 9000 power.

Not only that, but whenever your Forwards are dealt damage by your opponent’s abilities, Cecil will reduce that damage by 2000. Hopefully helping your Forwards survive that damage.

I’d say this would be a good card if there is a way to reduce Cecil’s CP.

You can probably play Cecil 20-075L, and switch this one in, Or you can have Rosa 20-125R on the field, which will allow you to draw a card when Cecil enters the field. This would technically make Cecil 3CP.

Other than that, there’s not much to say about this one.

25-096L – Tidus

For 5CP you can return a Backup to your hand, and then the next Final Fantasy X Character that you play, it’s cost will be reduced by 3CP.

There’s 2 cards that I would pick to return to your hand. Rikku (2-071R), as it would be a Free Play to play Rikku back to the field and have her activate all of your Forwards. Or, you can return Brother (1-197S) to your hand and play him back to the field to have you search for a Final Fantasy X Character and add it to your hand.

If you decide to go with Brother, Tidus is now technically a free play.

And, don’t you think that Tidus is done here.

Every time Tidus or a Final Fantasy X Character enters your field, you will choose one of your opponent’s Forwards and they will lose 4000 power.

That will be 4000 from Tidus, and 4000 from Brother one play and you just might break 2 o your opponent’s Forwards.

25-097H – Doctor Cid

Time for some research, and who better than Doctor Cid.

4CP can be paid only with Water CP in order to cast Cid.

And, when he enters the field, you can place one of your opponent’s Forwards and put them at the bottom of their deck. That way the pesky Forward that has been bothering you for some time now, needs plenty of resources to be able to come out again to cause you some more trouble.

And whenever one of your opponent’s Forwards leaves the field, for any reason, Doctor Cid will begin his research and will allow you to draw a card. Once you have that card in hand, the research begins as you decide which card you will discard.

Simple as that.

25-098R – Broden

An owner?

What does Broden own?

I’m sure if you played Final Fantasy VII Rebirth you would know.

But, just saying Owner as a Job Title?

Yeah, this is the second Owner we have had so far. Soon we’ll be able to build a deck.
And as an Owner, Broden doesn’t do anything. He’ll just give you 2 cards and then just stand around taking up space. You’ll want to get rid of him, or don’t even bother playing him.

25-099C – Porom

Don’t like your hand?

Porom is here to help.

She’ll let you change out 1 card, with a new card from the top of your deck.

And, if that didn’t work, you can discard a Palom, draw 2 cards and then discard another card.

Is this a good strategy?

Maybe, Maybe not. But, don’t give up that card that you might need later.

25-100R – Matt

If Matt is here, you know that Glenn and Lucia are around the corner somewhere.

Matt comes in for 2CP, and he will be a good addition to your SOLDIER deck. All SOLDIERs are welcome, as with Matt on the field, all of your SOLDIERs will not be able to be chosen by your opponent’s abilities. This means that I’m 99.99% sure that either Glenn or Lucia, will have All SOLDIERS, cannot be chosen by your opponent’s Summons.

Matt also has the ability to lower a Forwards power by 2000. Which could be the little bit of power that you need to help break that Forward.

He also has First Strike.

25-101L – Meia

Are there enough MOBIUS cards to make this worthwhile? Enough to make a MOBIUS themed deck?

Meia comes in and if you decide to remove a MOBIUS card from the game, your opponent will choose one of their Forwards and they will put it in the Break Zone.

Meia can also reduce the cost of casting a Summon by 1, all you have to do is remove a MOBIUS card from your Break Zone.

I mean, maybe.

I would rather use Meia (16-123L).

25-102C – Rosa EX

Rosa comes in and searches for either Cecil or Ceodore, and brings them home.
Bringing her cost down a notch to 2CP, and she comes with 5000 power as well. Which is not bad.

And, let’s not forget Shell, because Rosa gives her family protection from your opponent’s Summons and abilities, in that they cannot choose Rosa, Cecil or Ceodore.

Are there better Rosas? Yes, but that doesn’t mean that you should ignore this one.

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.

21-101C – Ashe

OK, Yes, I’ll take it.

What’s not to like? Every time Ashe attacks you draw a card.

I’ll throw Ashe in any deck, just to draw a card when she attacks. Especially with 8000 power. Throw in Wakka (1-180R) and Ashe will have +1K power to keep your opponent on their toes.

And, that’s about it. Simple yet effective … In helping you draw cards.

21-102L – Gau

I won’t say it this time.

The WASP Super fan is here once again, and he is perfect for your Monster deck. I might even put Gau in the Bomb deck I’m going to be building shortly.

Gau’s cost comes down for every Monster that you have on the field. Meaning, you don’t even need to have any Water CP, as long as you have 5 Monsters on the field. Should be simple enough. Especially if you have a swarm of Bombs ready to blow. You’ll just play Gau before they all explode.

Plus, when Gau enters the field you can send one of your opponent’s Forwards to the bottom of their deck, as long as their CP, is equal to, or less than the number of Bombs, … I mean Monsters you control.

Gau can also turn a Monster into a Forward with 8000 power.

It’s at the tip of my tongue, Gimme a Mic!

“I’m a Wild Chi ….”

I’ll stop.

21-103R – Kraken

Is it worth playing Kraken for 5CP?

If you’re playing Mono-Water, probably. If not then I might skip this.

You do draw a card when Kraken enters the field, so technically you’re just paying 3CP for Kraken.

Other than that if you have 7 Water Characters on the field, a Forward of your choosing loses 10,000 power.

This might be worth playing in a Viking deck.

21-104C – Sage

What’s not to like? Sage is a Standard Unit that can Activate a Character once per turn. You can also have three of these on the field at the same time.

Think about this.

You have a Character on the field that deals damage to all of your opponents Forwards. But, you have to dull that Character, cause that’s how most abilities work.

After that you can Activate that Character with Sage, and do it all over again.

And, again.

And, again.

And, one more time, but you can’t activate that Character this time.

That’s 1 ability going off 4 times in one turn.

I’ll take 3. Yes, please.

21-105C – Sahagin

Here we have a great addition to any deck that has Gau.

Especially since Sahagin is a 1CP Monster that will return a Forward to your opponent’s hand. Sure, this Forward, must cost 3CP or less, but with Gau’s help, this Monster can turn into a noble Forward that will happily protect you and your party of Forwards that lead themselves into the hands of your opponent’s party, that have one objective, which is to deal you 7 points of damage.

And, if that doesn’t work out, you can always send Sahagin into the Break Zone to return any Forward to their owner’s hand.

21-106H – Jed

That is not what Samurais look like. And, not even Tenzen can help Jed.

I mean sure Jed’s first ability is decent. Reducing the damage dealt to your Water or SOPFFO Forwards by 1000, but other than that I don’t really see a reason to play Jed.

And whenever I say that, somehow someone will figure out a way to play Jed and make him viable.

All Jed needs is a mustache and glasses.

I’ll lave Jed Flanders alone for now.


21-107R – Springserpent General Mihli Aliapoh

You can get Springserpent General Mihli Vanilli, i mean Aliapoh, down to 2CP if you got a couple of Water Characters on the field.

And, when Mihli Aliapoh is put into the Break Zone, you draw 1 card, thus making the Serpent General a free play when she comes full circle.

And if you have a couple of dull Characters on the field. Mihli here will activate them and give them +1000 power.
Not a bad card. Especially since this can turn into a free play.

21-108R – Ceodore

Little Prince Ceodore.

This is probably the best Ceodore yet. And, I like it.

Why?

Because, Ceodore will give all of the FFIV Forwards +1000 power. Sure, you’ll need Rosa or Cecil on the field to give your Forwards that boost, but then again, you won’t be playing Ceodore without Rosa or Cecil in the first hand.

And if Rosa or Cecil is already on the field, you can spend a Crystal instead of paying 4CP to play Ceodore onto the field.
I see a Wind/Water IV deck coming along nicely.

21-109C – Astrologian

And, you thought Astrology was fake.

This Astrologian, can actually see into the future, and you can change it however you’d like.

Simply put, Astrologian comes out, reads the stars, and as you look at the top 3 cards of your deck, you can add one to your hand. And place the other two at the top and bottom of your deck. Allowing you to place a perfectly good EX Burst at the top of your deck, as you real in your opponent to attack you for a point of damage.

And, if you get tired of Astrologian after this, you can always send her to the Break Zone, and draw a card for your troubles.
I’ll be giving this one a try.


21-110C – Desch

If you really want to play this card, you should play it right after you played Sahagin.

Because other than playing a 9000 body for 2CP, I really don’t see a reason to be playing Desch.

Unless you find the portrait art good, and you want Desch to stare down your opponent, as he tries to intimidate them into playing the wrong cards at the wrong time.

Yeah, that’s about it.


21-111C – Paladin

Water Elemental Backup here.

If you need that Crystal to play Ceodore, Paladin is here to help you.

Other than that, if you play Paladin early on, you can draw a card if there are 3 Backups or less on the field.

And, that concludes Paladin.

 

21-112C – Ninja

It’s been a while since we’ve had a Character with Back Attack.

And we have a nice little Combo here.

First off play Paladin, gain the Crystal.

Use that Crystal to help pay for Ninja, return a Forward to your opponent’s hand.

Play Desch for 2CP.

Yeah, it’s not the greatest.

21-113R – Bikke

Here is a free card for you.

If you have a couple of Pirates, and/or Vikings, Bikke comes in at no extra charge.

0CP for an 8K body.

Plus, he grants protection from your opponent’s abilities to all of your Vikings and Pirates. Named Pirates. Although I can’t think of a Pirate Standard Unit. We might be getting some in the upcoming sets.

It looks like we’re finally getting our Pirates/Vikings deck that most of us have been thinking about since Leila (6-126R).

21-114L – Faris

And, this is the other reason Pirate/Vikings will become a thing.

Imagine swarming the board with Vikings, and all of those Vikings now have 8000 power. You’ll be getting a board full of Meat Shields. As long as those Vikings keep coming, you’ll be drawing cards left and right, and you’ll have plenty of CP to play more Vikings.

Faris can also redirect a Summon or ability choosing her, to one of her sacrificial lambs, just waiting to get knocked out, by Ramuh or any other ability that may come her way.

And that covers it all.

I’ll take 3. Preferably foil.


21-115C – Larsa

Larsa comes in a searches for a high cost Forward.

There’s some use here.

But, I prefer the cards that search for any Forward regardless of cost. Sure there’s not that many, but sometimes cards like Larsa help.

End of the day, Larsa will technically cost you 2CP.

 

21-116H – Leviathan

Umm, .. .

I thought this one would have been better. I mean, it’s not bad, but when you hear Leviathan you just kind of expect more.
If you decide to play Leviathan during your turn, you’ll end up paying 2CP less out of the 6CP it costs to Summon Leviathan.
Leviathan, comes in and grabs a Forward and puts them at the bottom of their owner’s deck. That means you can choose one of your Forwards, if they’re being targeted by Summons or abilities.

After that, you can play a 2 cost Forward from your hand onto the field.

If this cost 4CP, instead of 6CP, where if you play it on your turn for 2CP it would have been great. Still there is some use here.

21-117R – Rhus

Yes, maybe, probably.

Rhus costs 6CP, but it’s actually 4CP. Unless it’s the first turn and you went first.

Rhus’s cost comes down for every card that you drew this turn. If you play your cards right you can play Rhus for 1CP. Shouldn’t be that hard with Vikings.

What’s great about Rhus is that you can discard a card, remove Rhus from the game, and then play Rhus back onto the field at the end of the turn.

You probably won’t need to really use that ability, as Rhus already comes equipped with a 9K body, but if you do, you know that you have a Backup plan.

I like this one. I’ll be trying this one out.

21-118H – Leila

This is a hard one. Which one do we keep?

Opus VI Leila or this one?

We already what Opus VI Leila does, so let’s take a look at this one.

Leila enters the field and you can search for a Viking, or a Pirate and add it to your hand. Giving Leila a total cost of 1CP.

After that whenever one of your Water Forwards attack, you can sap 1000 power from one of your opponent’s Forwards. And if you have enough Water Forwards, which you should, especially with Faris and Bikke, and a handful of Vikings, you should be able to Break a Forward per turn.

This one is a much stronger Leila, but grabbing and playing a Viking from the Break Zone and drawing a card is also good.
Maybe have both of them in a deck.

21-119H – Lenna EX

How is that an EX Burst?

Because it is, all you do is draw a card when Lenna enters the field. So, this 2 cost Lenna is actually a free play. And, we like it.

After that, Lenna has a great ability that doesn’t require you to send Lenna into the Break Zone. And, that is something that we don’t see too often. But, with an ability name like “Raise”, what would you expect? Lenna brings back a low cost Forward from the Break Zone.

It’s always good to carry a Phoenix down.

21-120R – Refia

Introducing your WoFF Reanimator.

Refia enters the field, grabs a WoFF Forward of 4CP or less from the Break Zone, and play them straight to the field. Kind of like Opus VI Leila.

I believe WoFF will be making a comeback. With all these WoFF cards we got this set, some of them are bound to be good.
Once Refia is on the field, and you already got the extra WoFF Forward on the field from the Break Zone, you will be able to dull and pitch Refia to the Break Zone, and reduce damage done to one of your Forwards by 3000.

I see Refia being a staple in future WoFF decks.

21-081L – Irvine

Well, I can see why this is a sought out card.

It’s the butterfly on Irvine’s finger. When it flaps it’s wings, it’ll cause your opponent to slowly get discombobulated. In a way, at least.

Irvine enters the field, you remove 2 cards from your opponent’s Break Zone, and it’s off to the races. The butterfly’s flap will give Irvine +2000 power, Haste and First Strike. Meaning Irvine can attack right off the bat, as a 9000 power Forward, and don’t forget First Strike. 99% of the time your opponent will either be sending a Forward to the Break Zone, or getting a point of damage.

And, Armor Break, breaks a Forward or a Monster.

You can’t go wrong with this one.

21-082C – Red Mage

Your Elemental Backup, that’s the same as the other Standard Unit Backups in the other Elements as well.

Maybe in draft, but I don’t see much play outside of it.

Prove me wrong, and I’ll send you a playset on the house.

 

 

21-083H – Ace

Is this Ace better than the rest?

I don’t think so, but I always used Ace when playing Type-0.

Sure the other Aces are better, but this Ace is a Hero.

Ace enters the field and you draw a card if you already have a couple of Cadets on the field. Thus making Ace a 2 cost Forward.

Other than that, you can discard a card, and dull a Forward, and give Ace +1000 power.

I think I’ll pass on this one.

21-084H – Odin

A Summon that will Break over 75% of all Forwards and Monsters. And, it only costs 3CP. You can even reduce that cost to 1CP if you have at least 5 Lightning Characters on the field. Because when you do you get to draw 1 card. And, everyone likes drawing cards.

There is another 2 Odins that will Break any Forward regardless of cost, but Odin (1-124R) costs 7CP. You also have Odin (12-077H) which costs 6CP, and that one’s cost is reduced by 1CP for each Odin in your Break Zone.

Playing this Odin with the Opus XII Odin might be a good idea.

Other than that you got some great Amano art.

21-085H – Emperor Gestahl

More Amano art, and Gestahl is starting to look like “The Wiseman” from the Labyrinth.

For a 2 cost Backup, Emperor Gestahl will allow you to grab a Forward from your Break Zone. Plays like these are always good. Especially if that Forward was the only one that you had. And, let’s not forget about their enter the field ability that will cause havoc on your opponents board.

Ok, let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Later on you can put Emperor Gestahl into the Break Zone, remove 4 of the same type cards from your opponent’s Break Zone, and draw a card.

I don’t see why not.

“sometimes the way forward is the way back.”

21-086C – Gunbreaker

This isn’t bad at all. And with Gunbreaker being a Standard Unit, you can have 3 of these on the field at the same time. Hopefully you’ll have a pocket full of Crystals, because I can see a board wipe shaping up here.

Every time Gunbreaker attacks, you deal 2000 damage to all of your opponents Forwards. If you have a Crystal, you can deal an additional 2000 damage to all of your opponent’s Forwards.

And, if you have a couple more Gunbreakers and a couple more Crystals, then you’re dealing 12,000 damage to all of your opponent’s Forwards.

Pair this with some Bombs and I see a deck forming.

21-087C – Machinist

What is this? 2CP?

For a 5K Forward?

I can see some use with this one.

Gunbreaker attacks, and then you play Machinist in your Main Phase 2, and deal 5000 damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards.

And, after that, once per turn, you can Dull Machinist and deal 2000 damage to a Forward.

21-088C – Gilgamesh

Que “Battle on the Big Bridge”

You can never go wrong with Gilgamesh, unless he pulls Excalipoor. And this, Gilgamesh is not pulling Excalipoor. Especially, if you got yourself a couple of Crystals on hand, and 3 points of damage. For when you do, Gilgamesh becomes a 9K body, with Haste and Brave, and can also attack twice in the same turn.

Pair this with Estinien (6-088L) and you can have the match over with in a couple of turns.

I like it, the only thing I would change about this card, is give it some Amano Art.

21-089R – Queen

A Forward with Haste, that doesn’t receive damage when attacking?

I’ll take it. It doesn’t matter what else Queen does, this is more than enough.

And, it still gets better. Queen, also, can’t be chosen by Summons or abilities either. And, if for some reason you need to give her more power, just spend 2CP and you’re set. You can even do this part multiple times to keep upping her power.

This will be going straight into the all Haste deck.

 

21-090R – Cloud

You wouldn’t play this Cloud in a FFVII deck, but you might in a WoFF themed deck.

2CP to cast a 5K body, that will maybe, just maybe break one of your opponent’s Forwards. Well, Cloud actually just might. There are plenty of low cost Forwards out there, and if you already have Reynn on the field, to help pay for Cloud, well then you have 2 WoFF Characters on the field. And, there are plenty of 2 cost Forwards to break.

Yeah, that’s about it. Break a Forward, and then you have a tiny meat shield to absorb an attack. Or something like that.

21-091C – Black Knight

Black Knight has 1 job, which can be done twice. Once when Black Knight enters the field, and once when Black Knight enters the Break Zone.

Break a 2 cost Forward or Monster. Which is pretty good considering the cost to play Black Knight is 2CP.

Black Knight will then hang out on the field, but when Black Knight starts heading to the Break Zone, Black Knight will Break any Forward or Monster that your opponent controls.

Sure, costs and blah blah blah, but I’ll give this one a try.

Or two.

21-092R – Man in Black

How come Lightning is getting all these good cards? Half of them are just Commons and Rares.

Like Man in Black here. a 4 cost Rare Forward, with an 8K body.

Ok, you’ll say, that’s just an average card. But upon closer inspection, every Attack Phase, Man in Black, allows you to choose 2 Forwards, and unless your opponent pays 3CP, they can”t attack or block this turn.

Allowing you to march Forward as you pile up cards in your opponent’s Damage Zone.

At 5 points of damage, Man in Black also gains +2000 power. Thus making Man in Black a 10K Forward.

12-093L – Xande

Mono-Lightning mean you’re playing Xande.

Xande might be 5CP, but you can reduce that by one if you have Glauca (11-091R) on the field. And if you have 8 Lightning Characters on the field you can grab a Forward from your Break Zone and play it straight to the field. No cost limit on this one. you can even grab those 10 cost Forwards and just play them straight to the field.

I’d say it’s worth having at least one Xande in your deck if you’re playing Mono-Lightning.

 

21-094C – Shantotto

Hmm.

That is what Shantotto is thinking.

How do I fit into a multi-element deck? One that can play every element, so I can get the most of my Enter the Field ability.

Tyro and Moogles and ….

Worst case scenario you’ll be dealing 3000 damage to one Forward.

Best Case 21,000 damage. I can’t think of any use in trying to find a way to have all the elements one the field, including one Light or Dark Character, but the look on your opponent’s face when you say I’m dealing your Viking 21K damage.

21-095C – Trey EX

Class Zero finally got a card that it needed.

Trey, the Recycler!

A card that will allow you to go into your Break Zone, and grab a Class Zero Cadet.

It’s always good to have a Backup, with a backup plan.

Dynamite Arrow, deal a Forward 9000 damage.

The only bad thing about this card, which isn’t really a bad thing, is that Trey can’t send himself to the Break Zone.

Other than that, you know you’ll be playing Trey in your Cadets deck.

21-096R – Nine

Nine reminds me of Amon from Opus II, which is still a great card.

Once per turn Nine is able to dull a Forward. Reducing your opponent’s numbers down. Allowing you to utilize a bigger attack, than you previously thought you’d be able to pull off. Add Opus II Amon and you’ll double that reduction.

Plus, let’s not forget that Nine has Protect cast on himself, as whenever he takes damage, that damage is reduced by 2000.

Class Zero has gotten some nice cards this set.

21-097R – Neilikka

Are there Brave Exvius decks out there?

Does anyone actually play Brave Exvius decks?

Just wondering, cause if they do they’ll probably play Neilikka here. She gains Haste if you have 2 Brave Exvius Characters on the field.

Neilikka costs 2CP and whenever she attacks she dulls, and deals 3000 damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards.

You can still play this card without any FFBE Characters, dealing damage to a Forward while dulling it is worth the 2CP alone.

21-098R – Palom

I’d say this is a pass.

There are far better Paloms out there.

Sure, this one is Lightning and deals 9000 damage to one of your opponent’s Forwards that cost 3 CP or less.

I’d say the only good thing about this card is that the ability can go off from an EX Burst. And, that’s about it.

Leave this one at home, unless your drafting. Then you might want to use it.

21-099H – Firion

Restrictions, restrictions, restrictions.

What do you expect? If there weren’t restrictions, we’d have so many over powered cards, where the winner would be determined by who goes first.

Or something like that.

I like this card. Should be played in Ice/Lightning. Dull everything in sight, and then you have Firion who can attack twice per turn is your opponent has 4 dull Characters on the field. See it doesn’t even say Forwards. Backups count as well, which more than likely will already be dull do to CP costs and playing cards.

Firion attacks twice, with Brave and +5000 power. making him a Forward with 8000 power. Add in Lulu (1-150R) and Maria (17-128L) and you’re turning Firion into a 11K wrecking machine.

All this for 1CP.

Can’t get more bang, for 1 Crystal Point.

21-100C – Dragoon

I keep telling myself, I should look into these Dragoons. They’re usually the “Cool” Characters. Take Kain, and Fang into consideration. Both great Characters, both are Dragoons. Even though Fang isn’t considered a Dragoon in FFTCG. Not yet any way, but her spear says other wise.

Let’s get back to the card.

Dragoon enters the field and deals either 4000 or 8000 damage to an active Forward. And it all depends on how many Backups you have.

By itself it’s an OK card.
