Sneak Peek - Challenged

It says Reversal keyword printed on it, since **Alba** just makes them all reversal, not stamps the key word on it. Very helpful card that'll see a lot of play. Simple, efficient, and damn right great on stats. Why not?

Very handy little foundation. Type of shenanigans you can pull off are crazy, if only situational. Use this little trick on Yun-Seong's attack, partially block, good bye 10+ momentum, that much speed on a reversal, and heres the kicker: Deceptive Look.

The potency of this card is amazing, Im gonna have to think of a deck just to use this card now. Finally order just got one hell of a powerful card to use. Looks like STG is really going all out for this pack, I can't wait.

Well, stat wise Boxing Gloves is a better flip, minus the block. Only down side I can see is that it is a slower momentum gain and comes from your hand, but the 7 handsize should get around that OK.

Really I like this guy, a whole lot. Theres always been the discussion over how bad 6 handsize characters really are and how Rose*** and Yun-Seong* had abilities that made up for their handsizes which have gotten to be a down factor in todays meta. Yun-seong** is a great example of the potential of the 6 handsize characters with great abilities. Playing of Wind, Earth or Order, all offer ways to target Yoga Mastery, Whimsy, Ring Veteran, the all powerful Trade Your Passion for Glory aside, there will be a way to use that second E, though running To the Bone, Power-up, Leave at dawn, One-Armed Manuevers, and how ever many other ways to generate momentum, you'll probably want to leave him ready and use that sweet R to pass your checks, that ability alone is enough to garentee that he will see some very competative play in the coming months, personally I'd bring him to the big tournaments coming up to really see the potential he has. Overall I give him an A grade, perfect example of how good a 6 hand size character can be. And as something I just realized, you can use his E on any attack, your's or your opponent's, which makes his E even more usuable, since if it gets YM'd its just another card in your opponents pool.

 W00t for FIRE!, Saturday, 28 April 2007

I'm hoping that Fire begins to see a lot more destruction cards this set, and from the previews we've seen, Maximum Jacknife, it looks like Fire is in for a real super charge this go around and I can't wait. Stats wise I really think this thing will see a lot of play, I'm definately making room, especially with set rotation. This completely justifies the 2 control check in similar fashion to Roundhouse Kick and Glass Slippers, its just plain good. The 2 speed is iffy these days but a Low zone makes up for that a bit. Its free E is gonna be a huge draw for ANYONE who can run it. On top of everything, STG follows its UFS trend of having great cards easily found: see that single little dot among the set notation and copyright info, thats right, its a common, 4 to a box, or more as its looks like the set 90 cards!

5 CC, check, 1st turn drop, check, playable while committed, check, super abusable with current meta, CHECK. 
 
Draw up to your opponent's character's handsize?? Thats amazing with all the 7 or 8 HS characters people run. There are NO down sides to this card, NONE AT ALL, accept if you're playing against that one ***Hugo*** player, but still its more cards, this thing is nearly as good as Law and Order, and depending on how many more reversals and blocks these symbols get, people might just be killing each other for this thing. WOHOO =D

First off the symbols are great, this is gonna see a lot of play in Adon decks for sure, atleast its going into some of my fire aggro decks. But the real draw are its Es, Multiple 3?? with that alone this attack is superb but its second E, I see momentum burn potential like with Soul Reprisal or Setsuka (cant remember which one i think the promo) 
Back to the 2 check, from what we've been told it sounds like low CC attacks are gonna be on the rise more and imho this is a perfect example: a fabulous attack who's stats and abilities out wiegh the the negative of the 2 check. We're gonna see a shift in the meta for sure to more low checks if this is what attacks are going to be looking like in the future.

The combo ability of this card is great my favorite idea is to play a To the Bone, Power of the Gail that away, play this little action, drop Material A, then follow with Strike Heads, or some variation of that. And that can be done by second turn, set up would only be, Power of the Gail, Power Up, more Air stuff, end turn, then go into this combo next. And with 2 difficulty this is an easy one to drop.

First off, this card looks great. Really I see myself running a Good build with Flowing Gale Hook, Rolling Storm and the like, and using her ability to try and stop Yoga Mastery. Only tricky thing is the fact you have to hit the Control of the card exactly and cant commit foundations to mess with it. A little hard to understand exactly but keeps her from being overly broking i guess. still a fun card.
