Lol don't the makers normally try not to make so many obvious mistakes every episode? Is brainwashing the kids into buying the game all that matters?
But I must admit to something this anime still does right in an unorthodox way. 1) The lead keeps losing and that is a good thing because it indirectly tells us to be more powerful by BUYING MORE CARDS !!! 2) You can win rare cards even by losing. Not only winners get super powerful prizes. (especially if they are saviors in trainning) |

Started watching this a while ago, and it's actually not as bad to watch as one might think. It's more that this series for me is in a 'not to be taken with high expectation and just watch for fun' which is actually going well in that regard.
Though the 'monster' designs are mixed, some ok (aka Blaster Blade) while others horrid, I'm looking forward to more monsters being shown later in the series. |

How is that +2000 bonus in attack with the Unicorn work? Does he empower any other of the Paladin set or is it open to everything?
Hm, the artwork for Yddrazil healer is different than in the anime. And what is that +5000 in her Heal symbol? And wow, she gives 10.000 support bonus??? They have never shown that. And based on the latest episode, the Critical symbol can actually empower any monster you want and NOT just the attacker? |

Pay 2 when you ride him and you can retire 1 of your opponents rear guard. That lets you kill an extra enemy in an undefendable way, and can completely screw up your opponents defense early in the game since it's just a grade 2.

Blaster Blade, however, is still not as good as any grade 3, though, because only grade 3s have Twin Drive, and critical triggers are your main method of damaging your opponent (at least, in the anime that's the case), the first player to ride to grade 3 is at a serious advantage. So it's the best grade 2 we've seen by most measures, but it's not something you want to ride all the way to the bank (haha)

It hasn't been made clear AT ALL in the anime so far, but there are some basic abilities that each grade card has
Grade 0 and 1: Boost. All called "support". This is when you add the power of the card in the back row to the one in the front to increase the attack power. Grade 2: Intercept. This is when you move a card in a rear-guard position into the guard circle to shield an attack. It basically means you can call any grade two in those positions as a shield card. Note that all grade 2s have shield values, but no grade 3s. Grade 3: Twin Drive. You can check for drive triggers twice when attacking. These abilities are only given to their respective grades. You'll never get a grade 2 with twin drive or a grade 0 with intercept, etc... And every card of those grades has those abilities. At least, that we've seen. I suppose it's theoretically possible they'll throw some exception into the mix since it's marked with a separate icon on the card. Also, I think that only grade 0s are trigger cards. Have we seen an example of a drive trigger card that wasn't a grade 0 yet?

I wonder if a deck full of zero grade criticals will beat any deck in just two rounds. XD
You let the opponent play first. You attack with critical. Two damage on round 1. Chances of blocking 10 to 12 K with zero grade are close to zero. You then summon one or two more zero grades and again attack his vanguard. If no block is done right, you win right there. XD |
