And Now For A Word From The Vanguard R&D Department!!
For Today’s’s card, we’re introducing three cards from “Touken Ranbu -Hanamaru- Deck Set 2” (on sale October 6th, 2017):
• “Kousetsu Samonji -Hanamaru-”
• “Souza Samonji -Hanamaru-”
• “Sayo Samonji -Hanamaru-”
“Kousetsu Samonji -Hanamaru-” is a G Unit with a skill that returns Units to the hand. When it attacks, you can flip a face-down “Kousetsu Samonji -Hanamaru-” in the G Zone face-up and pay 1 Counter Blast, you can choose 1 ally Rear-guard, and then all other Rear-guards on the board are returned to the hand, and if three or more return to the hand, this card gains Power+10000!
Since it increases your hand, you can gather the cards you need to guard against an attack during your opponent’s next turn, and in addition to obstructing the Stride Skill of cards like your opponent’s “Dragheart, Luard”, it also returns meddlesome Units like “Nurse of Broken Heart” back to the hand, meaning this is a card that can be used offensively and defensively.
Following up, “Souza Samonji -Hanamaru-” has an ability to exchange Vanguards, as when it’s placed on the Vanguard Circle, you can pay the Cost to Ride 1 Grade 3 card from your Deck except “Souza Samonji -Hanamaru-“, and then Call this card from the Soul. By using this ability, it’s Good to Ride a Grade 3 with a Stride Skill. And when it attacks, you can pay 1 Soul Blast to have it returns to the hand. By returning it to the hand, you’ll be able to secure the cost of Stride during your next turn.
“Sayo Samonji -Hanamaru-” is a Rear-guard with an ability to increase its own Critical. When it attacks, if there’s a face-up “Hanamaru” card in the G Zone, and you have more cards in your Damage Zone than your opponent, this card gains Power+5000 and Critical+1. It works quite well with Stand Triggers, as if it Stands, it can repeatedly activate its Skill, applying quite suitable pressure on the opponent.
We’ll be introducing more cards from “Touken Ranbu -Hanamaru- Deck Sets 1 & 2” in future “Today’s Cards”! Please look forward to them!
