If they ever do a video game set in the future, I bet we will see chitose from hackers memory as a new tamer for this deck, since he had these mons in game.
Some great cards but it does feel like the sum of its parts is greater than the whole. The Patamon is something I really like. Mostly because I’m a weird person who saw the Mumukusmon cards in bt17 and went “no, I’ll try and make it work”. The MagnaAngemon is fire. Yeah, the Vikemon evo is something many still dislike to this day. Maybe that’s why Slashangemon also appears in this set:
Agreed! I don't foresee a lot of players going the Shakkoumon line route, mainly because it's original colors were blue and yellow but now you're swapping things up to black and yellow. While the Patamon element is still consistent, Armadillomon jumping back and forth feels bad :/ Definitely loved MagnaAngemon and Vikemon ACE when I was going over the cards.
@@DIGI-PANDA Yeah. Maybe if Armadillomon was black from the jump and/or Patamon had a good blue base, it would be better. The Dark Master players are hyped for Vikemon.
Tk, has the best scene from Digimon Adventures 02, but since the development of the series was chaotic and changed rights. tk went from incredible to dead weight
I actually think Shakkoumon is the best lv5 of the lot, bjt it suffers from the old Shakkoumon needing blue, not black. And it just... lacks a good wincon. Great control, Ive done digivolutions with the option to recover 3 before.
@@DIGI-PANDA I do need to revisit the deck post EX5 and see if the yellow ACE cards added in that set provide adequate top end as a wincon. Vikemon ACE is alright but it dosent have the offence to close things out.
@@raikaria3090 Definitely! I think Valkyrimon has the close out, but not the draw power/resource management. And Vikemon can get you the draw power/resource assuming you're controlling the board. But in terms of offensively closing out games, neither holds anything close to Imperialdramon.
I will find use for all of the new Armadillomon cards, maybe not good use but I digress. I plan on using the new Shakkoumon in my Chessmon meme deck. Vikemon is the worst evo for Shakkoumon. If they didn't want to give it a unique Mega, ClavisAngemon works way better (even if it leans more towards Pata's line than amradilo's). It's always annoyed me and I was hoping the TCG could fix Shakkoumon's mega, but I guess that was too much to ask. Hell, BigShakkoumon would have been better.
I would have loved to see some better armors in this deck for the other protagonists. I want Pegasusmon and Nefertimon getting Rapidmon and Magnamon levels of support!
I personally i dont mind the Shakkoumon being more passive. But i feel that pieces work better outside of Shakkoumon. (Patamon and Vikemon.) I dont know what happens with Bandai and 02 Kari but Kari gets the short end of stick. BT08 has Kari + Silphymon but not a single card of Gatomon. The closest thing is Rush Blackgatomon (who even has Gatomon on the cover) and Ophanimon Falldown Mode. (Who she would use on Tri as her dark evolution) BT09 has both Pegasusmon and Nerfetimon despise being Antibody and Tri theme support. with a bit of Ghost Game. My guess is that Bandai wouldnt want to have BT15 Angewomon Ace, Bt16 Angewomon Ace for Silphymon and Angel/Security Trash and EX6 Angewomon for Mastemon/Angel deck.
The passive isn't terrible perse, but if you're trying to keep it within the canon digivolution lines, you kind of can't at this point. That's the only unfortunate thing. BT8 is still kind of a weird set to me. Good but weird.
@@DIGI-PANDA If Armor Vaccine wasn't about to take over the whole Vaccine archetype in a month, I'd be even more interested in it. Maybe EX6 will make it worth doing over armors.
my head canon is Shakkoumon digivoles into Slashangemon. Its in the same set and same colors and better synergy. I think the devs are just trolling the community by making it Vikemon
It's not the devs. Vikemon has always been Armodillomons canonical Mega, made for it. That exactly why he is Free attribute. The outlier is Silphymon and Valkirimon. Imperaldramon dosent resemble Paildramon either. Vikemon works from Ankylomon. 2 large maces, charges in using shoulder mounted shields. It just needs a not-Shakkoumon inbetween. Like a black armoured Magnamon would bridge ExVeemon and Imperaldramon (like green rapidmon is an ultimate)
@@raikaria3090 Shakkoumon being the in between does definitely make it odd and SlashAngemon looks the part. I feel if the level 5 digivolution had more defining features it'd make more sense.
@@raikaria3090of all thing you say is Valkyriemon and imperialmon does look like their respective lv 5 . They look more like their own counterparts than vike to shak. Angeslashmon should have been the mega but obviously he doesn’t have free in the trait .
Unfortunately neither shakkou or Silphy gets additional support in Ex 6 while imperial that hade a good base, just gets another support in bt 17. Atleast my yellow/black decks can use shakkoumon to end games.
Interestingly, BT12 already defined this for the most part - even going as far as giving Davis and Takuya the favortism due to goggle status instead of sharing it with Ken and Koji respectively. Funny enough, I'm curious whether Chesssmon decks can effectively utilize Shakkoumon.
@@DIGI-PANDA unlike Koji, Ken at least got a solid lineup outside a Tamer with a nearly full digivolution line of Wormmon, Stingmon, Dinobeemon and Grankuwagamon along with Spiking Strike option card.
@@Vansjoo7966 This is also true. It is disappointing that Koji hasn't had much outside of the BT7 line. And even then he was significantlly overshadowed because of Tommy.

I'm hoping they do a video game set soon for Cyber Sleuth, they've been cold since BT5.
I hope they make a Yellow-Blue Shakkou with Partition
That Vikemon Ace is so splashable!
Definitely good in upcoming black and blue decks!
Some great cards but it does feel like the sum of its parts is greater than the whole.
The Patamon is something I really like. Mostly because I’m a weird person who saw the Mumukusmon cards in bt17 and went “no, I’ll try and make it work”.

@@raikaria3090 I know. I like him though.
Tk, has the best scene from Digimon Adventures 02, but since the development of the series was chaotic and changed rights.
tk went from incredible to dead weight
I enjoyed him in the movies but his development fizzled quickly. I'm a little upset we didn't get much with the Dark Ocean.
Deadweight? How?
@@pn2294 There are episodes where TK is dead weight
@@Leonardovideogoes when?
Time for defensive plays!
Separately, I think some of the elements are great but the whole thing needs work.
Vikemon definitely seems like a fun card to find a deck for. Im excited for your video on the Dorugoramon support!
The last set review video!
I feel like Yellow Vaccine/3 Great Angels is the winner of these cards. Even if 3 Great Angels is really waiting for EX06
Definitely! Angels just keep getting better!
I actually think Shakkoumon is the best lv5 of the lot, bjt it suffers from the old Shakkoumon needing blue, not black. And it just... lacks a good wincon. Great control, Ive done digivolutions with the option to recover 3 before.
Definitely! I think Armadillomon swapping from blue, to yellow, to black really messed with the color alignments that would make this deck cohesive.
@@DIGI-PANDA I do need to revisit the deck post EX5 and see if the yellow ACE cards added in that set provide adequate top end as a wincon.

Vikemon ACE seems like it would be fun for Blue Flare or Jellymon!
Definitely agree! In some ways you could also splash it in an Imperialdramon Deck because of it's free trait and ability to be search.

SlashAngemon would've been my go to. Another individual commented that this goes well with Cody's kendo too.
Works better for who? There’s nothing of Cody in ClavisAngemon.
@@DIGI-PANDAit’s terrible for Cody. None of Armadillomon’s evolutions reference swords at all
I would have loved to see some better armors in this deck for the other protagonists. I want Pegasusmon and Nefertimon getting Rapidmon and Magnamon levels of support!
I agree with this and I'd love it if they worked in combination with each other. Kind of like the Golden Noose trick.
Let’s go! Vikemon ACE for my D Brigade deck
Vikemon ACE has so much utility use!
I personally i dont mind the Shakkoumon being more passive. But i feel that pieces work better outside of Shakkoumon. (Patamon and Vikemon.)
I dont know what happens with Bandai and 02 Kari but Kari gets the short end of stick.

Mah boy SlashAngemon got forgotten
Misc. cards! It's a hidden gem :3
I wasn't particularly impressed by the Jogress line for this pair, but I really liked the U/Y Angemon stuff on their own.
Same! And with the fact that you can go into Angels with it, it makes yellow vaccine a little stronger too! Especially tribal angel route.
@@DIGI-PANDA If Armor Vaccine wasn't about to take over the whole Vaccine archetype in a month, I'd be even more interested in it. Maybe EX6 will make it worth doing over armors.
@@treyenma5206 For sure! I've begun testing different BT16 decks and so far it's a doozy.

The fact that Vikemon is also a free trait Digimon is kind of funny.

Why would Cody have an Angel Digimon?
Unfortunately neither shakkou or Silphy gets additional support in Ex 6 while imperial that hade a good base, just gets another support in bt 17.
Atleast my yellow/black decks can use shakkoumon to end games.
Goggle favorism
Interestingly, BT12 already defined this for the most part - even going as far as giving Davis and Takuya the favortism due to goggle status instead of sharing it with Ken and Koji respectively.
Funny enough, I'm curious whether Chesssmon decks can effectively utilize Shakkoumon.
