Resurgence of Power – Raining Water?

18-086H – Ashe EX

The Queen is here.

And if all her loyal servants are on the field. (Water Backups). She will only cost you 1CP. Which is good. With a 9K body she’ll rule over her kingdom and … well … deal a loss of power to a Forward.

2000 for each loyal servant that she has.

 

18-087C – False Hero

Really?

Discard a Manikin and play False Hero. Then play Imitation Despot and grab that Manikin back from the Break Zone.

After that False Hero gives all the other Manikins +2K power.

 

18-088R – Ingrid

This is an interesting card. Especially if you know that your opponent goes into their Break Zone to grab cards back. I know I do, sometimes.

Whenever Ingrid is sent to the Break Zone, your opponent removes all the Characters in the Break Zone from the game. Can’t grab them anymore, not for this game at least. Better luck next time, but this exorcist will exorcise the Characters back the the RFG Realm to where they belong.

Got a little off track there.

18-089H – Echidna

Echidna allows you to grab a Summon from your Break Zone. And that technically turns him into a free Monster that can come in and turn into a Forward. The cost here is different. Usually it’ll be 0CP, but for Echidna it’s a Summon card.

Now when Echidna attacks or blocks, you can draw 1 card.

You’ll be able to grab a card, once per turn.

 

18-090R – Kalmia

Losing power? Not anymore, Kalmia grants a special type of protection. No more shall you worry about your Forwards losing power to Summons and abilities.

Kalmia would still be a great addition if it were just that, but she also grants protection to your Break Zone. Your opponent will no longer be able to be chosen by your opponents Summons or abilities either.

No more fear of losing your Break Zone.

 

18-091R – Cloud of Darkness

Sometimes it seems your Forwards are outnumbered 3 to 1.

Cloud of Darkness is here to fix that.

She’ll come in and all the Forwards will go into the Break Zone, except the 1 you choose and the one your opponent chooses.

It can be a lifesaver if it’s used under the right circumstances. What are those circumstances? Well, your opponents has more Forwards than you. And, stuff.

I like it.

18-092C – Tchakka

Another Naakual.

This one would be good for a Mono-Water deck. It says so itself. All Forwards other than Water lose 1000 power. And after that, whenever Tchakka attacks, your opponents Forwards lose 2000 power.

That means every time Tchakka attacks, your Opponents might be sending cards to the Break Zone, simply because Tchakka can cast Sharknado on them. Or something like that.

18-093R – Nerine

Bring the Princess, any Princess. That way Nerine will become a much more viable Forward.

+2K power is a good thing.

Plenty of Princess’s to play 25 to be exact. Wait, no Macherie has been banned. 24.

Let’s go ahead and pick Fiona (16-118C)

When she comes in you draw a card not only from Nerine’s ability, but Fiona’s as well. Thus giving you a free Forward to play. And since she is a Forward she can be recycled. Quite easily, in fact. As if she is chosen by Summons or abilities, instead of Breaking her, Removing her from the game or whatever happens, you can simply place Fiona on the top of your deck and repeat the process.

18-094C – Geomancer

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

Cheap Backup to play.

 

 

 

18-095C – Rune Fencer

I mean, it might have some uses, probably more than I think, but, it feels like you’ll be over paying. I can see it used here and there, but not enough for someone to keep it in a deck. maybe for draft or sealed.

You do get to hit 2 Forwards for a loss of power if you pay the extra cost. 1 for 4K and 1 for 7K.

 

18-096C – Leviathan

Leviathan comes back as a Common, and that’s doesn’t matter, because Leviathan cancels out an auto-ability that comes from a Forward. And at only 3CP that’s not bad at all. It’s actually pretty good.

Now you can also pay the extra cost of removing 10 Water cards from the Break Zone and return that Forward to their owner’s hand. Making them lose the CP for playing said Forward on to the field.

What’s not to like?

18-097R – Rinoa

This is probably one of the cards that didn’t need Warp. That’s just me though.

But Rinoa comes in, and you can send a Forward to the Break Zone, if you decide to pay the extra cost.

Angelo Cannon, I remember using it back in the day I used to play FFVIII all day, but we’re not here to talk about that. Where was I? You reveal a Forward from your hand, and Angelo deals that Forwards power as Damage to another Forward.

I just confused myself.

When are we getting an Angelo card?

18-098R – Lunafreya

Make a down payment of 2CP and get 3 cards in return.

Will it pay off or will your opponent cancel out Lunafreya’s ability when she enters the field through Warp?

Also, Can you wait 4 turns for a return on your investment?

It could be worth it.

 

18-099C – Leo EX

Leo … I mean King Leo.

King Leo comes in and sends a Forward back to their owner’s hand. And, if there are a couple of Standard Units hanging out on the field, you can just put it on top of it’s owner’s deck.

Simple as that. After that Leo just gives you 1CP per turn, cause he’s like a Backup and stuff.

Now, if we can find a way to bounce him.

18-100L – Lenna

I don’t think I really read this card.

I can see why it’s a Legend. Protection for your Break Zone.

If you’re playing Mono-Water, this is great. You can bring back a Water Forward and play it straight to the field. Lost your last Emissaries Tidus somehow. Lenna shall bring him back.

Or what about Leviathan, Lord of the Whorl. That might also be a cheap way to play him.

And, I just had an OMG! moment.

Your opponent wastes all of their resources to get rid of Leviathan, and you just bring him back. Just cause you can.

Forget Tidus, I’m about to put Leviathan and Lenna in my Ultros deck.

Let’s have some fun.

18-101C – Lenne

Cheap Backup to play that allows you to draw a card if you cast a Summon this turn.

That’s about it.

 

 

 

18-102C – Wakka EX

A backup to play if you’re playing a FFX themed deck, or mostly Water.

Wakka let’s you reveal the top 3 cards of your deck and hopefully you’ll grab a card. There’s a good chance you will if you’re playing this Wakka.

This ability also comes off an EX Burst so there’s that as well.

But, from the 4 other Wakka’s available, 3 of them are better than this one.

Prove me wrong.

Resurgence of Power : On Earth

18-052H – Ahriman

Ahriman comes in and breaks any Forward that you choose. Besides Multi-Element. For a 4 cost Monster that can turn into a Forward, this card is good.

Of course, you can only turn Ahriman into a Forward if you already have a Forward with a 9K body on the field.

Shouldn’t be too hard with Earth.

 

18-053C – Delusory Knight

1 cost Forward with 3000 power.

Cheap and effective as a blocker, simply to thwart your opponents attacks.

But, you can also just put Delusory Knight in the Break Zone and give another character protection in that it cannot be broken.

If you got an extra spot why not try it out?

18-054L – Galuf

Coming in with Brave, and 8000 power. Galuf is able to Break a Forward every time he attacks.

And if that’s not enough Fire Power, maybe you need more for some Forwards, he gains 3000 power at 3 points of damage. And, if that still isn’t enough you can remove 3 cards from the Break Zone and give him an additional 3000 power. That’s a total of 14,000 power. There’s not a Forward that can withstand that kind of damage, unless they have buffs, but even then it’s still hard to come by.

 

18-055R – Krile EX

Just lost a card you need to the Break Zone?

Have no fear, Krile here will grab that card back. But, only if it’s a Summon or a Category V Forward.

If you’re playing Krile you’re probably already playing a FFV themed deck for the most part.

I had her in my Pre-Release event and did use her quite a bit.

18-056C – Cait Sith (XI)

Here’s another card almost like Krile.

Cait Sith comes in a lets you grab a Forward from your Break Zone. Any Forward not just a certain Category. But, he doesn’t have the EX Burst like Krile does.

Other than that, Cait Sith is a little more useful after he’s been played. At 3 points of Damage he can produce CP of any element. Where Krile, after she comes in pretty much just sits there.

 

18-057C – Kolka

Simple, yet effective for what Kolka does.

One he enters the field, you can discard a Forward from your hand. After that you deal damage equal to the amount of power that Forward has to a Forward of your choosing.

Maybe you’ll be able to Break a Forward, maybe not.

Might be useful in certain situations.

18-058R – Serafie

A Forward that searches for a Forward when she enters the field. Well not just any Forward, Serafie searches for Tama. And there are 4 different Tamas.

For easiness let’s say you pick this Opus’s Tama. When he enters the field Serafie gains a Gem Counter. Not just for Tama, but for any Forward of cost 2 or less.

Why is that important? If Tama has 2 Gem Counters on her, you can remove them to draw a card.

 

18-059R – Tama

“Tama Can’t Attack,
Tama can’t Block.
Only thing about him is the way that he walks”

He can’t be chosen by Summons or abilities either.

What he can do is cancel one of your opponents Summons or abilities when they are targeting one of your Forwards.

Like a Mini-Amaterasu.

18-060H – Daisy

A meat shield if I do say so myself. Daisy is a better Paladin than Cecil.

Considering that with Warring Spirit and 3 points of Damage, your opponent will have to deal 40,000 damage to Daisy to Break her.

They’re whole front line, all the Summons and all their abilities might not be enough to take Daisy down.

This is where Cait Sith (XI) comes in, as he is able to bring her back from the Break Zone.

18-061R – Tilika EX

Simple Forward that allows you to gain Crystals.

If you need Crystals Tilika is the right card for you, as he allows you to gain a Crystal once per turn.

You can even gain a Crystal off an EX Burst.

Tilika will soon be selling Crystals on the corner in Rebena Te Ra.

18-062R – Nayo

Where did all these AVALANCHE Operatives comes form? I really should finish the FFVII Remake at some point.

Let’s see. Nayo is a decent backup who allows you to give 1 Forward either Brave, or an additional Job. And if you don’t like either of those options you can always just dull Nayo for a Crystal Point.

 

 

18-063C – Hashmal

Earth’s 1 cost Summon, that gives 1 of your Forwards +7000 power.

Now if you decide to pay the extra cost and remove 10 earth cards from the Break Zone, all your Forwards gain +7000 power.
Not too bad, considering most of the cards in your Break Zone are useless.

 

 

18-064 – Geomancer

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

Cheap Backup to play.

 

 

 

18-065C – Polk

Polk looks like he’ll be a decent addition to the AVALANCHE deck. He easily allows you to grab an AVALANCHE Operative from the Break Zone.

Just lost Jesse to the Break Zone grab her back with Polk, Barret too for that matter. Along with the rest of the AVALANCHE cast.

Best part, is that Polk can remove himself from the field. Just use his ability to grant a Forward +2000 power and you’ll be able to recast Polk and get another AVALANCHE Operative from the Break Zone.

18-066C – Beastmaster

Yes, this card is a little interesting.

Considering you can play 3 Beastmasters, That means you can actually cast stop on up to 3 Forwards your opponent controls. While constantly being able to Stop they’re Forwards from attacking or blocking. Those 3 Forwards can be a big chunk of their line, it could also be their whole line.

These cards are definitely worth looking into.

 

18-067C – Yumcax

Here I thought this was a Monster, but nope just a Forward.

Can come in with Warp. No special abilities when he enters the field, but Yumcax has some protection on him, reducing all damage cast on him by 2000. Meaning you’ll have to hit him for 11000 to send Yumcax to the Break Zone.

And, at 3 points of Damage, Yumcax gains Brave and if Yumcax is put in the Break Zone, you get to draw 1 card.

 

18-068R – Rikku

Earth has plenty of ways to help you splash different elements into your deck. Rikku here does just that. If all your Backups are Earth, Rikku enters the field and allows them to produce CP of and Element, which is good.

No more needing specific Backups to help you pay for everything not when you have Earth Backups.

It used to be that only Tyro and Shantotto can produce any element, Rikku has opened the flood gates of CP as … well you know.

Plus she’s a Forward, you might need to find a way to protect her.

I’d say we’ll be seeing this card a lot.

Let’s not forget when you cast a Multi-Element Forward, you can grab an Earth Forward from your Break Zone.

Resurgence of Power : Ice Opinions

18-018R – Alhanalem

2 cost Backup that can easily remove a Character from the game. If your opponent finds a way to play a card onto the field, simply Dull Alhanalem put Alhanalem into the Break Zone and remove that Character from the game.

Does this ability work with Warp?

Guess we’ll have to find out.

 

18-019R – Weiss

Weiss is an interesting card.

Every time your opponent discards a card because of your Summons or abilities, you’ll be able to choose one of their Characters and Dull and Freeze it. There’s plenty of cards in this set that will allow you to use Weiss effectively. And from previous Opera as well.

Fits perfectly into a Discard deck.

 

18-020C – Quistis

Card with a purpose. Just one purpose, but it does it well.

Play Quistis onto the field. Choose one of your Forwards and have that Forward attack. When that Forward attacks it will do so with +2K power and your opponents will randomly discard a card from their hand.

All that is left for Quistis to do is block an attack and hopefully she’ll be drawn from your deck so she can do it again. And then do it again.

And if Weiss is on the field, you’ll also Dull and Freeze a Character.

18-021R – Cu Chaspel

Cu Chaspel can have some use. Especially if your opponent has no cards in their hand. That way whatever card they grab from the Break Zone, they will have to discard it as you get to keep that card and discard another card.

Cu Chaspel should work good with a Discard deck.

And after your opponent discards a card, Weiss gets to Dull and Freeze a Character.

 

18-022C – Black Mage

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

Cheap Backup to play.

 

 

 

18-023H – Krysta

Krysta enters the field and your opponent discards a card.

Other than that Krysta can turn into a Forward if your opponent has 2 cards or less in their hand.

Pretty decent if you ask me. Weiss makes this card better when he enters the field.

 

 

18-024C – Shiva

For a 1CP Summon this card is actually very usable.

Shiva comes in Dulls and Freezes a Forward.

Now if you pay the extra cost of removing 10 Ice cards from the Break Zone, you can instead, Break that Forward.

Should come in handy late in the game when you have a bunch of cards that you won’t need to re-use, that is if you had a way to get them back.

18-025C – Chime

A 2 cost Backup that might be able to save one of your Forwards.

Dull Chime and give one of your Forwards +1000 Power and First Strike. Hopefully evening their Power and with First Strike your Forward will come out on top.

Only drawback is that your opponent has to have 1 card or less in their hand.

 

 

18-026L – Teodor

Now this is a very interesting card.

Sure, you might look at the high cost to play Teodor, but you can actually play him for 2CP with the Warp ability. For 2CP you can play Teodor, you’ll just have to wait 2 turns before he comes in. And, your opponent might have a way to stop him from coming in.

But, if he does come in, your opponent will Discard 3 cards. 2 cause he enters the field and 1 because he entered using Warp. And that means, he will also have +2000 Power, Haste and First Strike. Since you hand can only have 5 cards at the end of your turn. If you take away 3, they’ll be left with 2, and that is what you need to have Teodor gain his buffs.

I like this card. Might have to use it soon.

18-027C – Nooj

High cost, but when he enters the field, you can Break a dull Forward and have your opponent discard a card.

I mean, I don’t see any drawbacks to this besides the cost. But, what did you expect? Nooj is just a Common that can do some damage. Hence the cost.

 

 

18-028C – Nero EX

This is a great card. Works well with Weiss as Nero searches for Weiss.

That means after you find Weiss, Nero becomes a 2CP Backup. Which in itself is great.

If Nero is on the field when Weiss enters the field your opponent discards a card, allowing you to make use of Weiss’ ability and letting you Dull and Freeze a Character they control.

I’ll take 3, and 3 Weiss.

Should be good for a Shinra deck. Or maybe just a Tsivets deck.

18-029R – Hein

Hein comes in at a high cost, but if used at the right time can help turn things in your favor, if only for a turn.

This 5CP/8K body comes in and Freezes 4 Characters. Sure, they already need to be Dull for this ability to do anything, but it’s still a decent card to play at the right time.

Other than that Hein has protection against any Summons or abilities that can break him without dealing any damage.

 

18-030H – Physalis

For a 2 cost that can potentially have 8000 power, this is a pretty good card in fire (… er Ice?) power. But, that isn’t the reason you’ll be playing Physalis. Well, not the main reason.

Physalis allows you to discard a card and potentially play a better card as you’ll remove the top 2 cards of your deck,and then you’ll be able to play them this turn as if they would have already been in your hand.

 

18-031C – Rune Fencer

The extra cost is worth it as you’ll Dull and Freeze one of your opponents Forwards when Rune Fencer enters the field and each time Rune Fencer attacks.

Sure, it’s a 4 cost Common, but you’ll be able to use the ability once per turn.

 

 

 

18-032C – Phantasmal Girl

The card you need to protect your Manikins.

As long as you have 2CP ready to go, Phantasmal Girl will cancel out any Summons and abilities that target your manikins.
And at only 2CP, this card is a no-brainer. If you’re playing with Manikins, that is.

 

 

18-033R – Yuna

Pair this one with Rune Fencer. Once Yuna enters the field, your opponent will choose 1 Forward they control. Then you get to Dull and Freeze the rest of their Forwards. After that Rune Fencer wither comes in or attacks, and you’ll Dull and Freeze the remaining Forward. Leaving your party to attack without any blockers to fear.

Great Whirl is also a good reason to play Yuna. It might cost 4CP and another Yuna to cast, but once it’s done, you can just Dull Yuna and cast it again without paying a single CP.

 

18-034R – Lasswell

Played in conjunction with Yuna and Rune Fencer. Lasswell comes in and since all the Forwards will have been Dulled and Frozen Lasswell will allow you to draw a card. You don’t even need to play Lasswell the same turn you played Yuna and Rune Fencer. You can play him the turn after and still reap the rewards as all the Forwards will be Frozen.

Now 5000 power might not be a lot, but at 3 points of damage, Lasswell gains +2000 power.

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.

Emissaries of Light – Water Thoughts

Here we go again, after I lost it all when my Computer Froze.

16-106R – Andrea Rhodea

Andrea Rhodea, Perfect for a FFVII deck. And that’s pretty much it. He might be a Dancer, but there doesn’t look like he has any Synergy with other Dancers. Maybe Mayakov, just cause he gives Rhodea Protection, and that you can play him once Mayakov enters the field.

But, FFVII is the way to go. Only question is which Cloud do we choose?

 

 

16-107R – Ezel

More like a Mathematician.

Ezel allows you to search for a Forward, as long as you can do some simple math.

Add up the CP of the cards you discard to find a Forward with the Same cost.

There should be an easier way to search for certain Forwards.

 

16-108C – Kimahri

Kimahri only job is to place a Ronso Counter on a Forward, and give that Forward some Protection against damage dealt by your opponents Summons or abilities.

Kimahri will come in and give a Forward a Ronso Counter. All you need to do is figure out a way to keep bouncing Kimahri.

 

 

16-109C – Kyrie EX

I always liked the cards that allow you to look at your opponents hand.

They won’t be discarding anything, but you’ll be able to look at the top 2 cards of your deck and see if you like what you’ll get.

If you don’t just send them to the bottom of your deck, and hope for something better.

 

16-110C – Clavat

Another backup Backup.

Clavat here lets you draw a couple of cards when he enters the field and gets sent to the Break Zone. And with you being able to play 3 Clavats you might be able to Draw 6 cards.

Imagine what kind of Damage you can do with up to 11 cards in your hand.

 

 

16-111R – Genbu EX

Along with the same abilities the other Shijin have. Genbu comes in with “Protect”

The damage dealt to Genbu is reduced by 3000. And it is a constant reduction.

 

 

 

16-112C – Corsair

Don’t like your cards, play Corsair.

You’ll draw 2 cards and discard 1 card from your hand.

After that you can always use his ability and draw 1 more card.

 

 

16-113C – Sahagin

Sahagin will come in use water gun on your opponent. Blinding one Forward you choose, just enough to send him back to your opponents hand.

After that it’s a Switcheroo as you grab a card and discard a card. All this for 3CP.

After that, need to look at the top cards of your deck?

Sahagin will jump into the Break Zone to allow you to do just that.

16-114C – White Mage

White Mage is here to have some fun with Sahagin.

Whenever you discard a card from his on-entry ability, you’ll draw 1 card.

And it doesn’t stop there. This can happen anytime you discard a card, but only once per turn.

 

 

16-115H – Sarah (MOBIUS)

Sarah is hungry for Crystals. And every time you find one, she just might be able to get you a Backup to add to your hand.

Now, you do gain a Crystal when she comes in, but it’s not just that Crystal, it’s any Crystal you can get.

And then just keep feeding her 1 Crystal per turn, and she’ll gain +1000 power and Protection from damage that is less than her power.

16-116L – Tidus

Tidus is the gift that keeps on giving.

As long as you play it safe, Tidus will always be around, and it will seem like there is no way around him. Only a slight reprieve when your opponent manages to get him off the field for a second.

Tidus cannot be blocked, so you know that you won’t be blocking with Tidus because you will be constantly attacking, chipping away at your opponent.

Oh, and every time you send Tidus to the bottom of your deck, you draw 3 cards.

Now it doesn’t specifically say only this Tidus. If your opponent has a Tidus and you send it to the bottom of their deck, do you also draw 3 cards?

16-117H – Tros

Do I see an Octopus deck coming into play?

Tros will easily let you draw cards when Ultros sends himself back to your hand.

Octopi/Tidus or Octopidust, yes that is what I shall call it. When I finally get around to making it that is.

You know it’s going to work.

16-118C – Fiona EX

For some reason I thought this was a Backup.

So, you’ll be basically paying 2CP for Fiona and you got an 8K body.

You can also draw a card off of an EX Burst.

 

 

16-119H – Fusoya

A Five color deck?

It can work. You already have Soiree going all out this set.

Just add Fusoya to the mix, and you’ll probably choose up to 4 abilities to cast.

 

 

16-120C – Firion

There are a lot of cards that help you draw cards. Water is Turbo Draw.

Just don’t mill yourself out.

 

 

 

16-121R – Vesvia EX

It seems like there’s a certain way to play Soiree.

Well you can play any way you’d like, but depending on how many Soiree Members are on the field, you can draw up to 2 cards. Thus, making Vesvia a free card.

 

 

 

16-122R – Marche

I’m on the fence about this Marche. Due to the cost, and if the Opus XI Marche is better.

But, you’ll probably be playing a different strategy if you play this one.

You’ll grab a 2 cost Character right off the bat, and after that every time Marche attacks, you draw 1 or 2 cards.

 

 

16-123L – Meia

Here is your discount card.

Meia comes in with Haste, and even though she cannot attack or block, she lets you cast a Summon from your hand for up to 3CP less. You’ll be playing 1CP for 4 cost Summons.

Who else can we pair Meia with?

 

16-124H – Lightning

Lightning comes in when you’re at a slight disadvantage. Depending on how many Forwards you and your opponent have, you’ll be able to remove one of their Forwards from the game.

With Switch Schemata, you’ll be able to save Lightning from being sent to the Break Zone, and have her just come back in at the end of the turn and Remove another one of your opponents Forwards from the game.

 

16-125C – Leviathan

It’s like your going fishing, and throwing the fish back into the sea.

Either that, or another fish you already caught.

Choose a 5 cost or less Forward and place it at the top or bottom of it’s owner’s deck. And maybe draw a card. But, you’ll be losing 2 cards.

Meh, I probably don’t see it.

16-126R – Leo

A what now?

More Math? Not exactly, but you’ll have to have Characters of cost 1-6 already on the field to play this 1CP/7K Forward.

And when Leo enters the field you can play a card from the top 5 cards of your deck. So, you’ll basically be coming up positive in the CP count with Leo.

After that return Leo to your hand, there are plenty of cards that will allow you to do that. Then rinse and repeat.
