Card Game Updates- Booster Set 14, Starter 15 & 16 The War Dragon of Courage & The Steel Wolf of Friendship, New Sleeves- Release Months

[MarcFBR]

We have extremely early details for some upcoming card game things.


These are generally earlier than we tend to get a lot of details, so less info than we even normally get with early details... (And various translations are early and may change later.)



We knew Starter Decks 15 and 16 would be coming soon as there had been some mention of them in a few places. Both will be released in late May.
Starter Deck 15 is The War Dragon of Courage
Starter Deck 16 is The Steel Wolf of Friendship

The theme of this would pretty solidly be WarGreymon/Taichi & MetalGarurumon/Yamato themed, especially with an image later in the article.



Booster Set 14 is scheduled for late June. And that is all the info we have for now for that.



Also in late May is a new set of 4 sleeves. The sleeves feature:
The War Dragon of Courage
The Steel Wolf of Friendship
BelleStarmon
Current given a generic tentative name with no info

The line-up looks to match with some blurred images that appeared in a product catalog without any mention of source prior to this.




Outside of just dates, the main things are the new WarGreymon & MetalGarurumon boosters, plus knowing 3 of the 4 sleeves (and those being paired up with current, at the time, releases isn't a shock.)




Thanks to digicaplayer and de_gi_no_gen_2 for the heads up.

yeah, WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon sell and are the characters new players are most likely to know. It's not very exciting to me personally but having WarGreymon, MetalGarurumon, Taichi, and Matt's faces on store shelves just makes sense.

I'm excited for the BT14 news. A little disappointed to read the OP and see we have no details yet

 

[Muur]

June? That's a pretty big gap.

Yawn to the starter decks

 

[progzoohex]

So the starter decks they said would be focused around the new breeding playstyle is going to be wargreymon and metalgarurumon. Bit of a waste. Hopefully the playstyle is interesting even if the monsters aren't.

 

[Dynamicmon]

im all for a little break from set releases as to give my wallet a break, and myself a chance to try out some decks before we jump into a new meta a month later q:

 

[Nagatem]

I one day hope for a lucemon advanced deck, until then they can feel free to put out more adventure decks

 

[Mattman324]

Ah, good, wonderful, lovely. Starter Decks: Just Starter Decks 1 And 2 Again. And I mean, I get why (Muur hit the nail on the head), but this is the third frigging Starter Deck for both of them, meaning they've taken 6 of the 16 potential ones.

 

[Geode]

If Coronamon and Lunamon get cards in 14, I could imagine Coronamon line being red and yellow cards because Dragons Roar fire element and Virus Busters light/holy element, possibly green due to being Nature Spirits like most beasts and Lunamon line being blue and purple cards because Deep Savers water/ice element and Nightmare Soldiers dark element.

 

[Tarama]

but this is the third frigging Starter Deck for both of them

This is their first Starter Decks. The ones before are them from another timeline.

I'm happy with this because we are not far from Adventure (1999) booster. We would get another Dark Masters, and the long awaited Apocalymon.

And if we're lucky we would get Gabumon Motorcycle Mode. Do it, DCG, or New Century could steal its debut.

this honestly is the best context to look at these decks in because what you're describing sounds super fun and is something I can realistically see them doing soon as 1999 Adventure is the only anime other than Appmon and the ongoing Ghost Game I can't remember them theming a booster around (but some Digimon fans have the memory of a supercomputer so I wouldn't be surprised if somebody quotes me proving me wrong lol).

Gabumon Motorcycle Mode reminds me of the Belphemon Sleep Mode and Leopardmon Leopard Mode cards we just got so I'm especially hyped at the thought.

Also I think Mattman called me Muur

MetalGarurumon's only had one start dark, and WarGreymon's second was just a reprint deck.

While I would generally agree with the sentiment that the Adventure: characters are skinwalkers pretending to be the actual Adventure characters, unfortunately when it comes to their implementation in a card game, it really doesn't matter. There's not going to be some key difference that clearly distinguishes them in the same way that, say, a V-Tamers Taichi card might be distinguished from the Adventure ones. They're going to support the same Digimon and the same general playstyles.

MetalGarurumon's only had one start dark, and WarGreymon's second was just a reprint deck.

I meant Taichi and Yamato, who had Decks 1 and 5 and 2 and 6 respectively. Although yes, Taichi did technically have that other one too if we're counting it.

Ah, you're right then. Although six of the start decks didn't even have Tamer cards.

Wish they would give some different digimon some love since weve had so many greymons and garrumons. Was kinda hoping for ghost game or dawn and dusk themed starter decks.
