Enter Ginka - Power of Temperance

I have exactly 34 minutes -as I am writing this- left before this thing does not actually become Card of the Day from where I'm posting! So I'm posting this!!



What with 幻影ヲ駆ケル太陽 -Day Break Illusion - il sole penetra le illusioni for those who can't read much of Japanese yet- spoilers are obviously coming our way until it releases. Way to entice those who were reluctant in getting on this set or to diverge those who were willing on getting it.

Spoilers do go both ways...

Anyway, the Cards of the Day for November 7th are a Ginka RR Level 3 and the Climax required for the combo!


The Power of Temperance, Ginka

Traits: «Tarot» and «Coin».

[CONT] Recollection If you have three or more «Tarot» characters in your Memory, this card gains +1500 Power.

[AUTO] When this card is played from your Hand to your Stage, draw up to 2 cards, then discard 1 card from your Hand to your Waiting Room.

[AUTO] When this card declares an attack with the Climax “Bloodstained Future” on your Climax Border, this card gains +6000 Power until the end of turn, and your opponent cannot activate any “[AUTO] Encore” abilities until the end of this turn. (This applies to the [AUTO] Encore (3) in the rulings).



Bloodstained Future

Trigger: 1 Soul and Shot. (Until the end of this turn, when the next instance of damage of the Attacking Character that triggered this card is cancelled, deal 1 damage to your opponent.)

[CONT] All of your characters gain +1000 Power, and +1 soul.


So our first RR Level 3 card has finally been revealed. Let's do an analysis of this. The 3/2 Ginka reinforces how heavy the Recollection mechanic seems to be in this set. Especially with the fact that we're looking at a 3+ of a «trait» instead of the usual 2. Her second ability is the typical Draw 2 then Discard 1 effect instead of a Heal effect. This makes the value of the card quite lower to a bunch of people due to the fact that you probably won't be playing a playset of this Level 3 in a generic meta area.

Her synergy with the climax is pretty nice though. At base 11000 -this is assuming you're playing this set properly- Ginka receives an additional boost of 1000 from her Climax card. Bringing her up to 2000. Now with her last ability, when said card is on the field, she gains an additional 6000 Power Boost thus bringing her to a grand total of 18000 Power without back row support. Added bonus is that Encore effects are negated for the turn! Stops a bunch of Encore shenanigans from happening!

I'm totally going to be playing this and make it work in a build. Still waiting to see on what's going to come out in the rest of the set though!

What are your thoughts on the card? I for one find it quite exquisite!
