There's going to be an event, in the second half of July, an event which will give legions to the clans of Pale Moon, Megacolony, Great Nature, Murakumo, Angel Feather and Royal Paladin. What I am here to do, is to try and get everyone's reactions and predictions as to what these legions may or may not be. So let's hypothesis, think and generally come up with feasible reasons as to why this or that archetype might be support with a legion!
Please keep in mind, that at this moment, that the only tidbit of information we have so far, is that those clans will be getting legions, but we're not sure if it's just one legion per clan, or will they get two and so on.
As my prediction, I have one for Royal Paladin. Now so far we've seen nothing but Seekers this and Seekers that, which fine, yeah new archetype and it'll get supported so much that whatever has to carry it will most likely get a hernia. But my prediction is, is that Jewel Knights will get a legion. My thinking behind this is A) Kourin used them (remember those good ol' days? q.q) and she's by far one of the more popular female characters on the show, even beating out Emi and Asaka. B) Her clan so far, is the only archetype IN RP, that has all the things an archetype needs. Rainbow triggers, +3k attackers, PG and QW and a notable boss. C) They're knights and we know how much Bushi loves on the knights and dragons and how much attention they know female archetypes get.
I also suspect that it will be two new units we've never seen before, because unlike the Seekers, the other Legions so far, have been primarily new units that do not reuse older units, which is sad at first due to the mild support the Ashlei archeytpe got out of the Jewel Knights, but as long as they A) get a legion and B) their skills do not blow, I think it'll all work out.
I personally see no logic in the light, there isn't anything except a break ride and a ride chain that really supports it, there's no trigger dedication, no pg/qw dedication or anything of the sort. There's at least that for the Jewel Knights so that's why I am REALLY hoping that they get a legion, it's a fully supported archetype that I believe shouldn't just be left in the dust, meanwhile the SoL was solely used by Diago.. wasn't it? IE the guy that only shows up once in a great filler while?There's going to be an event, in the second half of July, an event which will give legions to the clans of Pale Moon, Megacolony, Great Nature, Murakumo, Angel Feather and Royal Paladin.

Or it could be Sanctuary of Light and give that deck an excuse to actually do things with its potential.
The new Megacolony legion is a welcome addition. Hopefully Bushi's got just as nice things planned for the other clans listed. Especially interested in Murakumo and Angel Feather right now.
Shura Stealth Dragon, Mantracongo
G3/Nubatama/Abyss Dragon/Power 11000
[ACT](VC): Legion 20000 "Shura Stealth Dragon, Dharanicongo" (If your opponent has a grade 3 or greater vanguard, only once, this unit may return four cards from your drop zone to your deck, and search your deck for the specified card, and perform Legion.)
[ACT](VC):[Counter Blast (1) & Choose one card with the same name as a unit on your (VC) from your hand, and discard it] If this unit is in Legion, and the number of cards in your opponent's hand is four or more, choose two card at random from your opponent's hand, bind them face down, choose one of your opponent's rear-guards, bind it face up, and at the end of that turn, your opponent puts those cards bound by this effect into his or her hand.
[AUTO](VC):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.

[AUTO](RC):When this unit attacks a vanguard, if your vanguard is in Legion, until end of that battle, this unit gets [Power]+2000 and "[AUTO](RC):[Soul Blast (1)] When this unit's attack hits a vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, choose up to two cards from your opponent's bind zone, and put them into his or her drop zone.".
So Nubatama was shown tonight, a bit ahead of schedule. Pretty alright for the most part. Good synergy between the Legion and Mate.

Actually that's the PR from the Monthly Bushiroad so I don't think it should be posted here.I personally see no logic in the light, there isn't anything except a break ride and a ride chain that really supports it, there's no trigger dedication, no pg/qw dedication or anything of the sort.

Actually, there's no SoL BR. And Daigo doesn't use SoL, nobody does :P
2) I do. And at the moment, the only reason others wouldn't is because for whatever reason, they just axed support as soon as it was made, almost similarly to Jewel Knights until they picked them up a few sets after they were shown. So what's to say it couldn't happen based on that logic? Hell, there could be some SoL cards in BT17 that are R/C, and I'd be fine with that.
Overdose Celestial, Asmodel
G2/Angel Feather/Angel/Power 9000/Shield 5000
AUTO [R]: [Counter Blast 1 & Put this unit into your damage zone] When this unit's attack hits a vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, choose one face up card other than a card named "Overdose Celestial, Asmodel" from your damage zone, and call it to R.
Holy Edge Celestial, Malchidael
G3/Angel Feather/Angel/Power 11000
ACT [V]: Legion 20000 "Overdose Celestial, Asmodel"
CONT [V]: During your turn, if this unit is in Legion, all of your units in the front row get Power +2000. Then, if you have a face up card in your damage zone with the same name as a unit in your V, all of your units in the front row get Power +2000.
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.
The mate is a G2 Hermieres (http://cardfight.wikia.com/wiki/Medical_Gunner,_Hermieres). I was wondering when they would get one of those. :)
The G3 in Legion can actually attack for 31k alone if you have the full effect active, which is pretty beastly. Tho I can't help but find it boring. I was hoping it would do something more....exciting for Angel Feathers.

Same. It's still not a bad legion at all, but maybe instead I think the third skill could've been a Calamity Flame skill. That would've made this really cool
Hmmm...
How many clans are left that need a legion?
Or was that all of them?
