Card Game Booster Set EX-03 Dragon's Roar on July 29th

[MarcFBR]

We have the first information for Digimon Card Game Booster Set EX-03.

As always with super early information take it with a grain of salt.



The 3rd theme booster will be called "Dragon's Roar" and will be released on July 29th, 2022.

Based on the name matching a Digimon classification, we can expect a set full of dragon and dinosaur Digimon! Lots of possibilities for that one, both for Digimon that already have cards, and a few notable ones that don't.


This will be the third theme booster. Theme boosters are smaller booster sets, based on a single unifying theme (unlike the main booster sets, which have one main theme, and any number of sub-themes), and generally have many parallel cards.


We aren't 100% sure on the number of cards, as the details the store posted don't quite line up, so there is likely a typo.

They count there being 76 cards, 2 more than EX-02, but the overall number they give is the same 74:
Common- 28 [EX-02 had 26]
Uncommon- 20
Rare- 18
Super Rare- 8
Secret Rare- 2


Hopefully more details (and possibly a sales sheet) soon.



Booster Set 10 Xros Encounter will be out on May 27th.




Thanks to cardland_bs for the info and Gambito for the heads up.

When Dragons and Dinosaurs collide...

 

[Bancho]

Examon is the only Royal Knight not to make its Digimon Card Game debut and if there's any set where it would debut, it would be a massive missed opportunity to not be this one.

I hope to get other Digimon who also haven't debuted in the card game! Are there any dragons or dinos you guys can think of?

 

[Taso]

Dragons and Dinos- I hope we actually see most of the dinos in green, I'd also like to see generic Dinosaur support cards.

 

[Noni]

I wonder if they have an entire collection of sets themed around the digimon classifications planned and they used that poll about favorite digimon classification to decide which one to go with first.

Is not even a reach to assume they already had Dragon's Roar ready, since is obviously a very popular theme in the fandom.

Edit: said poll with the results
https://withthewill.net/threads/poll-results-for-digimon-classification-you-want-to-join.27263/

Dragon's Roar- 28%
Virus Busters- 14%
Metal Empire- 13%
Nightmare Soldiers- 12%
Nature Spirits- 9%
Deep Savers- 7%
Wind Guardians- 7%
Unknown- 6%
Jungle Troopers- 4%

I hope they go through them all. It would be interesting to see how they split something like Deep Savers into six colors

So, something interesting, I looked it up and the "Bio" Digimon from Savers, the Black and Snow versions of Agumon 2006, ShineGreymon Ruin Mode, and the entirety of the Coronamon line are the only Dragon's Roar Digimon other than Examon to not have cards.

I was thinking of Aegisdramon and Gigaseadramon as cool newcomers.They aren't Dragon's Roar and are instead Deep Savers, but they are Dramons.
Hydramon debuting would also be awesome.

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

Really... I was hoping it'd be more unique but instead we have this all Dragon and Dinosaur types for this special booster? Oh well let's hope Examon will have epic artwork. So... What about Reptile types?

Does every set, excluding starter decks, feature every single color? I never paid attention.

Wait, why the Coronamon line is in it.

 

[MechaMadness]

Wait, why the Coronamon line is in it.

The short answer is that it's in that classification to represent the lines association with heat/fire and Dragon's Roar is the closest "Fire" family we have. Same reason why Dianamon's line is in Deep Savers for it's association with water/ice to play off the theme of duality Dawn and Dusk had.

 

[geoomega]

Ahh, dragons and Dinos my two favorite things mix together, I'm hoping for Canoweissmon, Aegisdramon, and Arresterdramon, But then again it along with Gumdramon might already be appearing in Booster 10.

Oh, that makes sense.

 

[Muur]

Seems super limiting but then Digimon does have a lot of Dragon's and Dinosaurs I suppose. Feel like it'll be half Greymons though and we already had a Greymon set

No reason they can't be consdiered Dragon's Roar, this set can just make them that if they don't already have it.

I like this point, Xuanwumon and MarineAngemon are the only mega i can think about green and yellow

I more wonder with underated class like Deep Savers, Jungle Troopers, Wind Guardian

Dragon, beast, metal, holy, dark/demon it look we can think easily for them as 6 color

 

[Notus]

Half joking, but maybe the set is entirely red dual colored. It could be the set's gimmick and help future less populated/diverse future fields, if those happen.

Ah, the old Ford approach. Your deck can have any number of colors, so long as the color you want is black red.

 

[Santaskid]

EX4 - Nature Spirits? EX... oh god... theres what 8 fields right?
DR
JT
NSo
NSp
WG
DS
ME
VB

So EX10 could in theory be the last of the classification/fileld themed EX boosters thats a bit insane (i know theres also Dark area and unknown)

I don't think we'll get sets for all of them. Even if we did they'd prob combine JT and NSp

 

[Noni]

Most likely they will release a short wave with the top picks, maybe two themed sets, then in the future release the other ones in small alternating waves, if they decide to release them all.

 

[Tarama]

I guess Dracomon's lines to Examon will lead this booster. Babies like Botamon, Chicomon, and Jyarimon might be in the set too.
