Shouldn't 'Perfect' be a final stage? Like, you can't get better than perfect!

From my recollection the word they use that gets translated as Perfect in Digimon(and other works like say for Perfect Cell) more accurately translates as Complete which makes more sense considering how a lot of the early Perfects are oddball Mutants, Cyborgs, and Undead(plus a few Puppets)

I feel like the Geckomons are going to be less their own thing and more extra muscle for any deck that wants to do a lot of Digivolution card stripping. Maybe they can turn on some archetypes that currently can't do it reliably enough.

It is a bit odd we have yet to get a proper Ultimate to cap off the Geckomon family, there's some okay choices to go with in the current pool(Leviamon, Suijinmon, TonosomaMamemon, Bacchusmon) but it could be better

Balache404 posted:...were there other lvl 4 Beast Hybrids in the card game? That doesn't seem right. Yes. All the other B-Hybrids in the TCG have been Level 4, and we've gotten them for every element but (as of exactly this moment, and quite probably not much longer) Water. The A-Hybrids in the TCG are all level 5 as well. There's a very long, needlessly complicated, very messy history behind how cards and games have pitched equivalent evolution stages for the various Hybrids (WHICH IS STILL ONGOING), but suffice to say them being Level 4 is not exactly a new take. Also Mercuremon and Sefirotmon are INCREDIBLY good. I've been hoping we'd get them in Black for a while now since Grottomon and Gigasmon were clearly and intentionally meh (besides the inherent value of being Hybrids) back in BT7 while Black has since become a very Tamer-happy color in the meantime, and these knock it out of the park with their effects. They are both extremely on point for what the color looks like these days. I honestly think these are the first reveals since spoiler season opened on BT12 I actually care about. I would love to see a similarly compelling Duskmon and Ranamon in the set.

The Bee posted:The levels on Beast Hybrids being inconsistent between the card game and vital bracelet only drives me a little insane. Because they're hybrid instead of champion/ultimate/whatever, they can appear at different evolution stages at different times. Same thing goes for Armors, to a lesser extent.

Armors and Hybrids have historically been a pain in the neck for the franchise when they're used in environments that force them to have a normal level (which is, unsurprisingly, very often) and have fluctuated hard between levels. Hybrids get it even worse though, having gone all the way down to Child (for Human Spirits) and all the way up to Mega (for Beast Spirits) and everything in-between. So they're whatever level the current media feels they should be. Normally Beasts are a level higher than Humans, which the Hybrid lore supports, but the DCG has them both as Level 4 (Adult-equivalent) which makes sense if they're specifically based on Frontier, where they're considered roughly equal but with their stats in different areas (speed/agility vs sheer power) and characters from both sides switch between them depending on what's currently required (until they're all made redundant because Takuya and Koji get better forms). Also I guess Mercuremon and Sephirotmon are in this set despite having no Xros Wars connections because they're descended from AncientWisemon, which itself evolves from Wisemon, who is a relevant Xros Wars character. Indeed, both Wisemons were shown in the Twitter account today and are also Black.

Indeed, both Wisemons were shown in the Twitter account today and are also Black. You never know honestly. Plausibly its because Sefirotmon showed up in Young Hunters, but it could be because they wanted to expand on whatever a "Tamer Focused Deck" is and because it made sense to print good Hybrids for Black. Or it could be both. On the other hand it's not like Digimon Sets have ever needed excuses to introduce supplemental Digimon and lines to existing themes whether it was in the set's "theme" or not. Consider that BT10 had a new Renamon line and a new Justimon as well as Bloom Lordmon and his enterouge and none of them had anything to do with Xros Wars. Similarly Arbormon and Petaldramon and Ancient Troiamon got dropped into BT6 which is a set that was otherwise utterly unrelated to Frontier. It might be a tie-in to Xros Wars, or it might just be they wanted to print Mercuremon.

I'm so excited to try and make this option work. 1 memory to delete a Digimon that is smaller than your blocker. Since it triggers at the start of turn they never get a chance to evolve before the attack!

There’s a poo poo-ton of reveals because of a magazine release so I’ll be handling it in chunks. Apologies for the crappy picture quality  quote:Agumon BT12-059 C <02>  quote:WarGreymon BT12-070 SR <02>  quote:Tai Kamiya BT12-095 R <02> Not a huge amount to say beyond this continuing the identity of the WarGreymon line as being Red/Black. Raid makes a second appearance, Tai seems pretty strong. More to come, including Davis, Tagiru and Gundramon, and Takuya, because Young Hunters was the crossover anime

Loving the mental image of WarGreymon using both Raid and Blocker and shouting "I am your opponent!" over and over again at 2-3 different digimon.

Yeah, giving this new Wargreymon Blocker would be pretty hilarious, especially with the Laplace Demon option to force an attack. Tangentially related, I just checked the price of Davis' old Tamer card and holy crap he cratered in value.

Why did they decide to give such a bland expression to a character best known for shouting every line he had? I tried looking up the closest pose I could think of to the one in Tagiru's artwork (in the opening) and even there he shows far more personality. I don't even like Tagiru and that card is still boring as hell.
