[Siulzen]

It'd be more appropriate to post that in this thread. Along with the alternate arts of Alk, Coral, Pacifica, Raindear, and Riviere :

Previews are starting again.

Today's preview is one of the remaining Legions for Link Joker:



Flash Gun Star-vader, Osmium
G2/Link Joker/Cyberoid/Power 9000/Shield 5000
AUTO [R]: When this unit's attack hits a vanguard, choose one of your opponent's locked cards, and that card cannot be unlocked during your opponent's next end phase.

Yikes, another one of these. Pair him up with Bolt Line or spread them out and you got "Omega Lock" pressure coming from the front and from the back.

Star-vader, Imaginary Plane Dragon
G3/Link Joker/Cyber Dragon/Power 11000
ACT [V]: Legion 20000 "Flash Gun Star-vader, Osmium"
ACT [V]: [Counter Blast 2] If this unit is in Legion, choose up to one of your opponent's rear-guards for each of your units with "Star-vader" in its card name in the center column, and lock it.
AUTO [V]: When this unit attacks a vanguard, this unit gets Power +2000 until end of that battle.

*spit takes*

Welp. That's about the easiest triangle lock to date. Even if it doesn't triangle lock, it's still an LJ vanguard that can lock 2 rear-guards very easily without having to ride Garnet Star. Quite a strong card.

Now all that's left is Astro Reaper's mate and we'll know all the Link Joker Legions in BT17.

[Beryl]

Well, there's the solution to the problem I was having with Garnet Star. Thank you, based Imaginary Plane Dragon. <3

[Lucius]

that skill can be used twice per turn it seems <.<

[Ren «Я»]

That is by far the best LJ legion/skill ever lol. Definitely gonna go back to maining Link Joker when that Legion comes out and on CFA.

That sounds so bandwagon. Lol

How do I deal with this...

Well I'm surprised they haven't made any unlocking units But clans like Bermuda, etc usually can avoid getting locked pretty easily lol aka (Bounce all your rear guards back to hand lol )

[Mewsic]

The only clans that have an unlocking unit is sadly Gold Paladins and Genesis.

Another way to counter link joker is just to play Imperial Daughter. <3

Yeah that's true. But also decks like Yggdrasill , etc that is really Vanguard focused can win the cardfight without having rgs lol. just call a few Shiny Angel to backrow or w/e lol and u should be set to win.

But there are unlockers in RoPala and Murakumo. And a couple other clans, iirc. So that's not really true. :v

The real way to counter Link Joker is to simply have a self-sufficient Vanguard. There's actually a lot of those in this metagame.

100% agreed^

I didn't know they had unlocking units. You learn something new everyday.

It still sucks for those clans that rely on the rearguards like Bermuda and etc.

Well, yeah, that is sort of the biggest issue right now. Being forced to use a self-sufficient and restanding Vangaurd isn't that reasonable for a lot of clans at the moment, even with legion, so Imaginary Plane's going to throw a lot of thorns into people's sides.

Long time coming, but Prominence Core is finally revealed :



Liberator of the Oath, Aglovale
G2/Gold Paladin/Human/Power 9000/Shield 5000
AUTO: [Counter Blast 1] When this unit is placed on R, if you have a vanguard with "Liberator" in its card name, you may pay the cost. If you do, look at three cards from the top of your deck, search for up to one card with "Liberator" in its card name, call it to an open R, and put the rest on the bottom of your deck in any order.
"The oath of the knight. For the day when the people are liberated from suffering."

Bluish Flame Liberator, Prominence Core
G3/Gold Paladin/Cosmo Dragon/Power 11000
ACT [V]: Legion 20000 "Liberator of the Oath, Aglovale"
AUTO [V]: When your unit with the same name as a unit in your V is placed on R from your deck, if this unit is in Legion, this unit gets Power +3000/Critical +1 until end of turn.
ACT [V]: [Counter Blast 1 & Choose one of your rear-guards, and retire it] Look at four cards from the top of your deck, search for up to one card with "Liberator" in its card name, call it to R, and put the rest on the bottom of your deck in any order. This ability cannot be used for the rest of that turn.
"The oath of the dragon. For the day when the world is liberated from sorrow."

From what I've seen, the reception for Prominence Core has been mostly negative. If you ask me, I think it's a fine card for the new Liberators. That second ability is a real winner.

The alternate art Aglovale is Legion Rare only I'm afraid.

[[ER] Patrickzzz]

Negative? He is just great.
