And Now For A Word From The Vanguard R&D Department!!
For Today’s Card we’re introducing the following from the 10th Booster Pack “Raging Clash of the Blade Fangs” (on sale February 3rd, 2017):
• The 《Nova Grappler》 GR, a 【Rush】 super ace G Unit, “Favorite Champ, Victor”
• The 【Rush】 support “Mecha Battler, Banguet” and “Extreme Battler, Kachiwhirl”.
“Favorite Champ, Victor” is a G Unit that can Stand itself and your Rear-guards as long you can pay the cost. When it attacks, by Counter Blasting 2 cards and discarding 1 card, you can Stand a number of Rear-guards equal to the number of face-up cards in your G Zone! And if you Stand at least 3 Rear-guards, you can Discard 3 cards from your hand to Counter Charge 1 & Stand “Favorite Champ”! Thus it has a flashy and exciting ability worthy of a GR. And since it has excellent affinity with the 【Rush】 ability, if you use it with support cards like “Extreme Battler, Malyaki” who power up your Rear-guards, you’ll be able to apply incredible pressure to your opponent. Also, “Favorite Champ”‘s ability has no restriction limits, meaning you can activate it as long you can pay the cost. Decide the Fight with a finishing blow!
When “Extreme Battler, Banguet” when it stands due to the effect of an ally card, and you have a “Victor” Vanguard, you can activate its 【Rush】. When it’s attack or an attack it boosts hits the Vanguard, it can place itself into the Soul to Stand 1 Rear-guard with the Rush ability! Since it allows you to increase the number of your attacks at no cost while placing itself in the Soul, it lets you activate the cost of the Stride Skill of “Exxtremer Battler, Victor”, so you can expect it to be an excellent support card.
And, “Extreme Battler, Kachiwhirl” is a Stand Trigger with the 【Rush】 ability. When it stands due to the effect of your ally card, it can return tiself to the Deck to let you Draw 1 card and Stand 1 of your ally Rearguards! Since it has a draw ability that’s valuable to 《Nova Grappler》, so it’s likely to see a ton of use.
As well, “Raging Clash of the Blade Fangs” has many cards that enhance 《Nova Grappler》, so be sure to enjoy.

Q. Can the ability of “Favorite Champ, Victor” be used multiple times per turn? Also, if I use it multiple times per turn,, if my Drive total becomes negative, what happens when performing a Drive Check?
A. As long as you can pay the cost, you can keep activating its Stand effect. Also, if your Drive becomes negative, you simply don’t Drive Check. A Unit with 0 or less Drive Checks goes to the Damage Step during Check Timing.
