BT17 Spoilers and Discussion

[Ren «Я»]

Yeah Libs weren't as pressured til now lol. Have a field of Bruno's etc along with this legion and it's ability to get crits and powering up and getting a superior call per turn makes it very good.

For once I can say Liberator's will be a threat now.

[Siulzen]

And now time for the set's main attraction to finally show itself:



Purgatory Dragon, Whirlwind Dragon
G2/Kagero/Flame Dragon/Power 9000/Shield 5000
AUTO [R]: When this unit attacks, if you have a vanguard with "Purgatory" in its card name, this unit gets Power +3000 until end of that battle.

Expected this.

Purgatory Dragon, Vortex Dragonewt
G3/Kagero/Flame Dragon/Power 11000
ACT [V]: Legion 20000 "Purgatory Dragon, Whirlwind Dragon"
ACT [V]: [Counter Blast 2 & Choose one card with the same name as a unit in your V from your hand, and discard it] If this unit is in Legion, choose up to two of your opponent's grade 2 or less rear-guards, and retire them. Then, if the number of cards in your opponent's damage zone is four or less, choose one of your opponent's vanguard, deal it one damage, and during that damage check, all trigger effects are nullified. This ability cannot be used for the rest of that turn.
AUTO [V]: During your main phase, when your opponent's rear-guard is put into the drop zone, this unit gets Power +3000 until end of turn.

...

Yowza.

[Ren «Я»]

Oh great, lol Dragruler and Nouvelle Vague combined for a Legion.

[Umer~]

we know skill before episode thanks 

[Lucius]

lol so it can deal damage and retire 2 rearguards what Kind of op skill is that since it can even negate Trigger :v. well at least only  once per turn

[Siulzen]

Shine Formation Liberator, Eldol
"Liberator" Perfect Guard



Purgatory Dragon, Rampart Dragon
"Purgatory" Perfect Guard



Star-vader, Rejection Dragon
Link Joker Quintet Wall



Blue Storm Battle Princess, Electra
"Blue Storm" Perfect Guard

[penguin90]

thats neat

[N]

I still don't get why there is another liberator PG(don't get me wrong GP is my main clan and the art is awesome )  :v too much support for a sub clan that's already good

[[ER] Patrickzzz]

agreed

[Lequier]

It won't affect those who play online, but it's purely so that the perfect guards are still in print so that people who are new to Liberators can pick up their sentinels easily and then play with them.

[Mewsic]

Does the shiny boarder mean anything special on the Purgatory Legion?

[Lucius]

duh it is easy because the reason is first the one that Lequier said and second because they wanna Show new Cards with arts in everything like Triggers or PGs after all Liberators already have 4 different Critical Trigger othersays you can make a liberator deck with 16 crits without using non-liberators ._. (even though the liberators already have a strong critical Support...). I think that makes the Gold Paladins the clan with the most criticals...

[penguin90]

Does the shiny boarder mean anything special on the Purgatory Legion?

the gold border means they are legion rares- basically another rarity with a special border akin to SP (though SPs dont have the same border thing)

[Mewsic]

Oh, How pretty!


But the effect is so unreal! Sigh

[Siulzen]

Today there was a live broadcast that spoiled a number of cards from the set. Among them, we finally get to know what the remaining Granblue and Aqua Force Legion do.




(Witch Doctor? of the Abyss?), Necrobolt
G3/Granblue/Demon/Power 11000
ACT [V]: Legion 20000 "Dragon Undead, Ghoul Dragon"
AUTO [V]: [Counter Blast 1 & Choose one of your rear-guards, and retire it] When this unit attacks a vanguard, if this unit is in Legion, you may pay the cost. If you do, choose one card from your drop zone, and call it to R.
AUTO [V]: When this unit attacks a vanguard, if you have another unit in the center column, this unit gets Power +3000 until end of that battle.

Dragon Undead, Ghoul Dragon
G2/Granblue/Skeleton/Power 9000/Shield 5000
AUTO: When this unit is placed on R from your drop zone, until end of turn, this unit gets "AUTO [R]: When this (unit attacks a vanguard/unit's attack hits a vanguard?), choose one of your opponent's rear-guards, and retire it.".

The ability is in parenthesis, because it's not certain if it needs to hit the vanguard or just attacking it. Most likely the former.

ACT [V]: Legion 20000 "Blue Storm Marine General, Ianis"
AUTO [V]: [Counter Blast 1] When this unit's drive check reveals a card with the same name as a unit on V, if this unit is in Legion, you may pay the cost. If you do, choose two of your rear-guards, Stand them, and they get Power +5000 until end of turn.

Blue Storm Marine General, Ianis
G2/Aqua Force/Aquaroid/Power 9000/Shield 5000
