New card
Stealth Dragon, Nibikatabira
Now you see me, now you don't! |
[Auto] [RC]: Afterimage. (When your opponent puts a bound card into his or her hand, if you have 6 or less cards in hand, you may return this card to you hand.)
[Auto] [GB1] [CB1] + [SB1] When this unit is placed on [RC], if you have a grade 3 or greater vanguard with "Shiranui" in it's card name, you may pay the cost. If you do, choose up to one of your other rearguards, and until end of turn, that unit and this unit get [power] +3000 & "[Auto] [RC] Afterimage"
Nubatama's Benziel clone and it's interesting, to say the least.
The first thing I noticed is that it is the first Benziel Clone with a secondary skill, and a decent one at that. Pretty much, if your opponent's bound card returns to your hand, as long as you have six or less cards in hand, you may return this card to your hand. Allows you to call this and be able to return it back to your hand to use later is nice.
However, that isn't the main skill, which is when this unit is called, you may Counterblast 1 and Soulblast one to give both this unit and a chosen unit 3k and Afterimage. Sounds pretty mediocre, doesn't it?
Well you're WRONG!
This card is actually pretty powerful because of how versatile it is. Here are some ways of using this card:
The first (and most obvious) way you can use this is by returning valuable cards you wish to protect that are on the field by bouncing to your hand.
Secondly, you can use it to calling a card such as a perfect guard, then calling Katabira, then using Katabira's skill to give afterimage to the perfect guard, and at the end of the turn return both cards to your hand.
Thirdly, you can use it to power up a column that Dreadmaster (Nubatama's MVP.) is in to force your opponent to lose two cards from either guarding or Dreadmaster hitting a front row rearguard. This won't work against 10k Vanillas unless you are running 10k vanillas, unfortunately.
Fourth: You can call a 7k rearguard (Such as Dreadmaster), then call Katabira in the same column to get a 21k attack that returns to your hand at the end of the turn.
The condition isn't even that harsh, considering that Nubatama is notorious for having and needing small hand sizes,
My only problem is the card is it's cost: A counterblast and a soulblast. It's not overpriced or anything, but Nubatama are very resource heavy as a deck, especially with counterblasts and soulblasts. Hopefully though, the Technical booster will give us a good soulcharging and countercharging engine!
Verdict: Nubatama are the better Ninjas CONFIRMED!
Verdict: Pretty damn amazing.

Old card:
Climax Jewel Knight Lord, Evangeline
Shing! Sparkle Sparkle. |
[Stride]
[Act] [VC] Choose a card in your G-Zone, and turn it face up]: If you have a heart with "Jewel Knight" in it's card name, and if you have three or more rearguards with "Jewel Knight" in it's card name, all of your units with "Jewel Knight" in it's card name gets [power] +3000 for every face up card named "Climax Jewel Knight Lord, Evangeline" in your G-Zone until end of turn.
Disclaminer: Before I talk about this card, I do not claim to be an expert on Royal Paladin, at all. So if I say something absolutely moronic (Such as OG Aurageyser being one of the worst G-units in the game around the time fighter's collection 2015 came out.) I preemptively apologize. Thank you!
Evangeline is Royal Paladin's stride in Fighter's Collection 2015 Winter, and it can pretty much be summed up as: "What Regalie would look like if it was actually balanced."
Like Regalie, Evangeline can create stupidly large columns, even bigger then Regalie. Unlike Regalie though, only units on the board when the skill was activated get the power. It also requires units to be on the board when the skill is activated. After all, 3 really powerful attacks is worse then 4 really powerful attacks.
As a trade of with Regalie though, Jewel Knights are better at rushing your opponent IMO, with the infamous Swordmy always being online as long as you have counterblast, and powerful grade 3 options such as Salome to kill your opponent even before they stride.
This isn't to say Evangeline is bad, far from it. It's probably the best G-Unit in the fighter's collection,
