For those interested

Seigfrieds Earth Divide

6/2 4H13 Earth/Good/Life

Only playable if you have at least 2 other attacks in your card pool

Seigfried E Commit 2 Foundations: This attack gets +1 Damage for every [Evil] card in your opponents staging area.

Sigfried's Earth Divide is delicious with Fight or Flight!

I really like the new stuff and I am impressed with how they built Tira. Very interesting indeed, however what i dont like is that her weapon is the only non character unique weapon. Why is that?

Solstice said:

Its not the only one, neither Hilde's nor Cervantes's weapon assets are character only either

oops my bad, but still I cant help wonder why they arent char only :/

Because this is universal fighting system... where cards are universal.

And from playing SCIV, you can equip those weapons on just about any character.

So why is it different for ivy, Nitemare, Siegfried, Astaroth, and Algol

hmm... from that batch of r/urs, it looks like the vast majority of them will be good for their particular character or strategy but not in general - which is pretty much how rares and supers should be. Slightly worried it might make the ones that are good for lots of decks tougher to get, (less equal-value cards to trade for them) but I'm probably just spoiled from set 11. Anyway, happy to see more (X+) abilities, it's a good method of costing and I always wondered why it wasn't used more. Same goes for self-destructive foundations, although there do seem to be an awful lot of them. Presumably it's not nearly as prevalent in the non-foils though, and it only looks so commonplace because of the rares-only spoiler pool.

does anyone know what jolly side and gloomy side do?

one was ibis minuet and the other was a life leach card or something I think. When you get to below half life you have to switch to the other one.

I am building nightmare.

I. AM. BUILDING. NIGHT. FRIGGEN. MARE.

I can't wait for my pre-release tomorrow. Death is the SEX.

here

Rats, can't attach Jolly Side/Gloomy Side to any other character. Because I would have totally built Side-Zhao Daiyu.

here's hoping to reliable momentum gen for Death.

For serious.

Though Tira's multiple attack thingy did NOT need Air on it. A bit much.

Are those all the R and UR in the sets? Not sure, double checking...

I think it's fine. If people are going to play a 2-check alongside Spike, it'll be Ira-Spinta. If they play it instead of Spike, that's a good thing. Am I missing something?

Pics/info?

DaiAndOh said:

nope, I didnt pull either of Hilde's ultras and I didnt post her starter stuff, theres Algol's UR founation, attack, and other weapon asset, I didnt post pics of either of Hilde's assets (both are very good with her), I didnt post Ivy's rare or super rare attack, neither Zi Mei's rare action or founation or her URs. Didnt pull any of Yi Shan's 4 Ultras, or Lu Chen's Ultras, and lastly Rashotep or Temujin's ultras... so no, these arent all of the URs or Rs.

HolyDragonCloud said:

Menuette Dance. Yeah. It's the only card that worries me on first glance.

6diff, 2 control, 5 damage Multiple: 3.

Potentially 20 damage for a 6 difficulty. It's not spike, but it's cheaper and better control.

At least it's not a stun/reversal/can't be discarded.

There seemed to be several very strong multiples. Is there multiple hate in this set?

ARMed_PIrate said:

I dont believe so (which may be why they are bringing back Mark of the beast). But there is 6 or 7 anti-discard cards

It's a high zone Criminal Uppercut; should be okay. Multiple hate... well, there is Mark of the Beast, though it is still unclear whether that and other reprints will be in the set or in league foil form. (even when asked on the latest podcast, Steve just said league kits were on the way or something like that but never inferred whether the reprints would be in those or the set) Can someone who's gotten cards please let us know if the reprints are there?

Cetonis said:

didnt see anything, and between all of our local group we pull the whole set. I would assume they will be league kits like all reprints have been.
