Card Game Booster Set 5 Battle of Omega Update- Information from Sales Sheet- Omegamon, Double Tamer Card?, X-Antibody Digimon

[MarcFBR]

Pre-orders for Digimon Card Game Booster Pack 5 Battle of Omega (pre-order link helps the site) recently opened, but outside of the release date, set name, and card distribution we didn't have any information past that.

We have the main portion of the sales sheet for the booster, and while the watermark blocks many of my tools from everything, the bullet points seem to be mostly visible to them still, along with a few bits of flavor text.

We'll try to update with more details as/if we are able to.


1- To conclude the first year the card game is out, the last booster of the year will feature that super popular Digimon, Omegamon!

2- The 1st X version of a Digimon will appear in the card game, with a super popular one as a Secret Rare. (Can't make out enough to see if it's just referring to 'one' X-Antibody version of a Digimon, or multiple overall... but if you were to guess... Omegamon X?)

3- It refers to Tamer cards and Taichi & Yamato for Omegamon (it appears it's saying it will be a Tamer card with both of them.) It appears it's also mentioning a Tamer card with a character who hasn't gotten one before (it's possible this is just referring to the unique aspect of having one with 2 characters on it.)



The set is scheduled for February 26th, and the card distribution is as follows:
Common, 44 cards
Uncommon, 30 cards
Rare, 26 cards
Super Rare, 10 cards
Secret Rare, 2 cards



On top of booster set 5, HLJ has gotten more stock of a number of previous Japanese card game booster boxes and starter decks: (the links help the site)
Starter Deck 1 Gaia Red (single starter deck)
Starter Deck 2 Cocytus Blue (single starter deck)

X Antibodies aren't my thing but I'm glad for more TCG news regardless.
My most wanteds are Bancho Leomon, normal Mamemon and Bancho Mamemon, and the Coronamon family so hopefully they pop up in these future sets!

 

[Muur]

I can only see it being Omnimon X.

When they mentioned double Tamer card my thought was Ai and Mako for Impmon. Maybe that will come later.

If the double Tamer card ends up as a target for a Hybrid Digimon that'll be slightly amusing lore wise. Tai and Matt fusing together to become Agunimon or Lobomon or something. I don't think that'd end well. They'd be arguing about which attack to use and then get killed by the enemy or something. I guess it wouldn't be the first time something like that happened since Susanoomon is piloted by multiple humans too.

 

[MechaMadness]

Gonna have to wait until future details on the X-Antibody Mons before making a final judgment on that. There's a number of ways they could realistically handle it, but my ultimate fear would be something like Omegamon X ending up as a Lv8 or something. Really interested in the idea of Dual Tamers. Considering it's apparently built for Omegamon, curious as to whether or not it'll be the first White Tamer, though that'd end up kinda terrible for the purposes of gameplay seeing as there's no White Option cards having a White Tamer on the field would allow you to use. Either way, this is interesting and I hope it opens the door for something like Ai and Mako for Impmon considering that'd probably make more sense then having them as separate cards.

My personal hopes (for both this set and future ones) are Beelzemon BM, BanchoLeomon and Darkdramon alongside Chaosmon. Would also like to see Hexeblaumon's family in more stuff just to reassure me that it being in the X3 wasn't an exception and that it'll actually continue to be acknowledged by Bandai Japan unlike other non-Japanese Digimon.

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

I think Hexeblaumon is very so much real official. Did you forget Penmon's card?

X antibodies continue TO RISE. But why specifically mention one?

Looking forwards for how they handle X Antibody on this new cards.

 

[Mattman324]

my ultimate fear would be something like Omegamon X ending up as a Lv8 or something.

Every single Level 7 in the game is White/Colorless. What would a Level 8 even evolve from?

Anyway the new tamer is either Nokia or Taiki.

 

[MechaMadness]

Every single Level 7 in the game is White/Colorless. What would a Level 8 even evolve from?

I mean, RagnaLordmon exists as a Lv7 Red and I doubt it'll be the last colored Lv7 either, but that's besides the point. Anyways, there's nothing stopping them from printing a Lv8 Omegamon X that evolves from White, could even have bonus effects if it has an Omegamon as material in the same vein as the aforementioned RagnaLordmon. Highest initial level was 6 with the starter decks, Lv7s didn't exist until Set 1, multicolor cards didn't exist until Set 1 and weren't an explored concept until Set 3, colored Lv7s didn't exist until Set 3, etc. Just because it doesn't exist now doesn't mean it can't exist later.

 

[Rohan]

The X-Antibody cometh... Even if it's very likely Omegamon X, I'm excited to see how they'll implement the X-Antibody in general into the TCG.

Tamer Cards having multiple people on it is pretty interesting. Beyond what's already been mentioned, I could also see the 02 Kids coming in pairs (though I hope Codie and Yolei do get their own individual cards), Takuya and Kouji for when they became Susanoomon and maybe Taiki/Kiriha from when they did the Double Xros.

 

[Momentai]

Honestly I hope they won't introduce any level 8, or at least not in these first sets

 

[Notus]

I don't find it likely that Omegamon X will be Lvl 8. The majority of X Digimon keep the same level as their normal incarnations and the few exceptions are non-Ultimate going Ultimate. Also, the Hybrids in set 4 are a precedent for Slide Evolutions to keep the same level.

If they were to introduce a Lvl 8, I think Jesmon GX would be one of the most likely candidates.

 

[Deep Saver]

I knew they would probably add X-Antibody Digimon sooner rather than later, but I'm still excited! I hope there are at least a few of them so we can get a grasp on if they trend towards a particular playstyle or not.

 

[Tarama]

About levels.
I think Omegamon MM will be Level 8.
While Omegamon X will still be Level 7.

If X Antibody changed digimon's level like DarkKnightmon or Lucemon, the levels would be one level above, I guess.
DarkKnightmon and Lucemon FM are Level 5 digimon. So their X form probably would be Level 6. Because their cases are clear.

By this, Omegamon X will probably be a Level 7 digimon, just like Omegamon.

 

[Notus]

I don't find it likely that Omegamon X will be Lvl 8. The majority of X Digimon keep the same level as their normal incarnations and the few exceptions are non-Ultimate going Ultimate. Also, the Hybrids in set 4 are a precedent for Slide Evolutions to keep the same level.

If they were to introduce a Lvl 8, I think Jesmon GX would be one of the most likely candidates.

Thinking better, there's not much reason for Jesmon GX to be Lvl 8 if his components remains at their usual levels (Lvl 6). I said that more of a gut feeling based of GX's "going beyond X-Evolution" thing.

 

[Tarama]

Yeah. I think Jesmon GX will be Level 7 too.

Omegamon MM, Zeed/MoonMilenniummon are candidates for Level 8.

 

[Nightwing]

One thing I’ve seen translated elsewhere is that the “red frame” from an old card game would return for alternate arts for certain cards. Given X-Antibody Digimon are the only ones that have ever had red frames, in Hyper Colosseum no less, I think we know what that refers to lol.

There’s a lot here that could be interesting. Combo Tamer cards for example, will they be multi-colour, maybe a higher play cost to reflect two effects, etc., those are all questions I’m excited to see answered. I’m guessing Merciful Mode will make its debut here with the Tai and Matt card confirmed, maybe the “Battle” here would be Merciful squaring off against X? Alphamon would be a nice SEC, the “Alpha” being the “secret” in an “Omega” set would be great.

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

I bet X Antibody name will be added next to Type or extra bonus effects if placed over the non-X ones and it's in the same name, DP will increase and the effects will vary (Putting Agumon X over Agumon).

X forms will have the best artworks but it will be much easier to see in completely much larger view like CresGarurumon's official art is harder to see but having many new arts made him easier to draw for model drawing references. X forms with this new card board 2020 will be great and perfect for "models"

 

[Mattman324]

Anyways, there's nothing stopping them from printing a Lv8 Omegamon X that evolves from White

Except for the fact that it would also be allowed to evolve from every other White Level 7, which is basically all of them, and that this would mean that every single deck would be incentivized to run it, which means to change the meta they'd have to print more Level 8s.

 

[Santaskid]

Tamer wise Nokia makes sense if only cause the set has an omegamon focus. Also sure at the moment there is no white option cards and they are unlikely to happen doesnt mean they cant/wont happen. They are just unlikely due to how limited in use they would be.

I would not be surprised if taichi and yamato ended up like dual color resources in other games where it can be treated as either color. We havent seen any proper multi colors yet have we? I mean digis that can count as a red OR blue for evolution. I know we have cards that can evolve from color a or color b. But we dont have any that count as a or b do we?

 

[Bancho]

X forms or level 8s in general could be in an extra deck.
Personally I think they're just going to be normal Digimon just with an "X-antibody" card type printed somewhere so certain cards can target the card type

 

[Santaskid]

I just realized while nokia makes the most sense cause shes probably the easiest option to go with. Would Hideto be out of the question? I guesd hed make most sense as some sort of Promo card
