And Now For A Word From The Vanguard R&D Department!!
For Today’s Card, we’re introducing the following from “Fighter’s Collection 2017” (on sale May 12th, 2017): The Generation Break 1 《Narukami》 G Guardian, “Sky Guardian Supreme Dragon, Impede Dragon” and the Heal Trigger “Meditate Dragon” that activates its ability when it’s discarded from the hand for the Cost of Calling the related G Guardian.
The G Guardians included in “Fighter’s Collection 2017” have the common components of Generation Break 1 and “Flip a face-down G Guardian face-up”. Compared to normal G Guardians, because these have a “Timing delay for when you can use them” and “Decrease the chances to use a G Guardian by flipping a G Guardian face-up as part of the cost”, they also are much stronger than typical G Guardians, and have incredibly high Defense. These are indeed special G Guardians!
And on top of it, the Heal Triggers in “Fighter’s Collection 2017”, available to all clans, have abilities that activate when they’re discarded from the hand for the Cost of Calling the G Guardian of their clan that’s included in “Fighter’s Collection 2017”! They have varying abilities depending on their clan, such as hand cycling or cost recovery.
“Sky Guardian Supreme Dragon, Impede Dragon” is a Retire-focused G Guardian. When it’s placed on the field, your opponent chooses a Rear-guard, Retires it and binds it! And, if you have 2 or more Rear-guards than your opponent, your opponent chooses and Retires an additional Rear-guard! Even in a troublesome situation where you have fewer ally Rear-guards, this is a reliable G Guardian that can turn the tide. Also since the first Unit retired is bound, it has a role in supporting 【Thunderstrike】. Since it has no Counterblast or so such Cot, it can easily be used.
Continuing, we introduce “Meditate Dragon” who can activate its ability when discarded from the hand for the Cost of Calling “Sky Guardian Supreme Dragon, Impede Dragon”! You can Counter Charge 1 card if there’s 1 or less face-up cards in your Damage Zone. So it’s a handy ability that lets you cover a Stride Skill Cost next turn!
For the foreseeable future, we’ll be continuing to introduce cards from the Legend Deck “The Blaster “Aichi Sendou”” and “Fighter’s Collection 2017”! Please enjoy!
