I hope the foiling for the alt art will have the helmet kinda popping out, because just by looking at the screen, it's going to be the normal version 100% for me.
I do like how all of the cards are essentially Full Art cards. BSS doesn't do this other than for the Eva set that came out where the text box is opaque.
I looked at all the revealed cards so far and it's looking like Green is pretty good thanks to Wing Gundam. You don't need to massive ramp only early to get to around lv 5 or 6 then you need some way to ditch the useless ramp card like First contact ( so far only white has card to ditch it while drawing cards) , since you only have maximum of 10 natural mana and you can't even ditch it like land in Mtg. So ramp card after 1 cast like First action= dead card most of of the time, you might only want to run 3 copies at max and prob pair with W color so you get to cast Overflow to discard. Strongest cards so far are: - Blue :Ray + 3/4 self repair gundam. - White: Overflow, Bride and mu la flaga is insane if there is a chain in this game and Mercury for the great 1/2 pilot stats + recover mana. - Green: Char's zaku 2 is the strongest rare drop so far, insane value For 3 mana + pilot, you are looking at premium stats 4/3 + 3/1 token= 7/4 . Falmel base and Wing gundam. Base is really freaking good if they net immediately value like Falmel, also one aspect I bet people overlooked. Base nets you a card from shield, that is really really strong in this game where you burn cards like no tomorrow. The UG or WG look great, UG is slower and more of a control sultai type where you drop big Wing and slowly drain opp resources. Where WG has more synergy with the lower cost command cards to dish into grave -> allow the 2 cost to become 4/4 and much more tempo base deck to swarm a bit early and play more on curve. And UW is a well around deck with accessing to draws and both Bounce/ Rest effect. Early 1-2 drop is really bad so far unless they have some sort of good effects, because you start with around 3hp base so a 2AP unit not gonna cut it, since drawing is very rare in early sets, so you don't want a dead unit 1 cost 2/2 which can't trade while opp drops even a stats line 3/4 for 2 cost (required lv4). Pilot + Gundam is 2 cards so you burn cards really quick while only drawing 1 per turn, so drawing effect is super strong and rare in this early reveal.
Unless I'm missing something, they have stated that you can use any pilot card on any unit card when they announced the rules. They gave a scenario where you can have something like Char piloting your RX-78-2 within the game if you want. There are apparently going to be benefits to having canon pilot/unit combinations in your deck, but I don't think they've been shown
Yeah you can put any pilot on anything, but wont get any Linked effects or haste. Its a bit more free than Digimon is. Maybe as the game progresses well see more things like "Federation Trait Pilot" so it can be anyone. Hell or even "Blue Pilot". I just like to brew builds and its harder when things have to be paired with each other. Im surprised i olayed Digimon for as long as I did lol but I never digivolved so....theres that.
6:45 The "specific pilots" needed to Link cards is ok to me coz it's in theme - pilots who are used to the MS can deploy faster, of course right? What I'm annoyed by is when cards gets skills unrelated to them, like Gundam and Ball having Repair Skills. WHY?
Agree but only so much can be done when it comes to trying to also make a balanced card game. Bandai has done a decent job in making some cards with thematic effects. Maybe well see some in the future.
The alternate art for the red Comet kind of makes him look pregnant or is it just me?
could be intentional. Char fans are weird.
lol but im sure if the picture was more clear it would look less so.

Where are the red cards! Show us Bandai! 😢

if you pair the pilot that is listed on the unit they are considered linked and it gains rush

Just praying to be able to find local product at MSRP once released…
FACTSSS
0:05 I can see why she was arouse by those words alone.
Man that dude just seemed to be getting cooked from the start. Why is this their first premiere match XD
Ball stocks 📈📈
The Falmel never showed up 😞
It was illusive indeed. Only at the very end to draw the Bryce from the shields.
When release
The beta set will be around Dec 7th. Will be hard to get. No release date of actual launch but speculated to be around Spring time 2025
So A show of resolve just pot of greed....
Yes lol. I think this type of ability is a staple in card games. Just a bit strong in some.
